The end of the world.

So what I found out today is that it's the end of the world according to Harold Camping from the US. He calculated from the bible that a world wide earthquake would kill us all and that only 2% of the world will go to heaven and the rest of us will go to an other place. And that it would happen at 6pm, I do not know which timezone he meant but I am guessing he meant his own which is in California. This is a funny quote if found on the Independents website.

"Recent events, such as earthquakes in Japan, New Zealand and Haiti, are harbingers of impending doom, he says, as are changing social values. "All the stealing, and the lying, and the wickedness and the sexual perversion that is going on in society is telling us something," he says. "So too is the gay pride movement. It was sent by God as a sign of the end." 


I mean you can't be serious. I'm not having a go at christians but some american christians can take faith too far, they believe anything, this guy supposedly predicted the end of the world back in 1994 and 17 years later we're still here. If there was a God I think he has left us to do our own thing becuase people have done worse things than be gay or lie or steal and the world didn't end when millions of people were killed for being Jewish.
But this is besides the point, this is just a group of zealots that are too close minded about things and are being laughed at by the rest of the world, I'm sure some people of faith are laughing.

But my theory is that we have our own perception of the world and that when we die our own little world ends.

So we are all still here, no earthquake, no burning sky, no mass hysteria and sadly no raptors. So we can all relax have a cuppa and wait for the 2012 one to come along.

Also Dr Who wasn't all that fantastic, I was rather dissapointed, and don't you think that Amy might be pregnant with a timelord baby, somehow.

Ta and good evenin'

Thoughts of the day.

Well today is like any other day, I'm unemployed, I have no money and I have nothing to do as John is at work and all my friends are a million miles in every direction and well IM is only good for a few minutes.

So i installed Dragon Age: Awakening on my side of the big pc becuase I wanted some of the extra stuff that gets transfered in to DA2, but I couldnt use my character that was a warrior and married alistair, though I think it might have something to do with me playing Witch Hunt with her as I think its after/during DA2. So i played it as new character for a bit and got bored.

So after that I did the ironing else I would get nagged it. Then watched some Dr Who on some blog site.

John made popcorn earlier and his mother said to empty it in to a plastic container to microwave it ( I dont know why doing it in the bag works just fine) I came down stairs to the smell of sweet but burnt popcorn, I just thought john had over cokked it until I saw that plastic pot. Clearly popcorn and microwaves generate alot of heat resulting in well its on facebook so that all got thrown out. Then John tried again with the bag in a glass bowl bc the bag gets caught on the sides, that barely came out popped so we put the unpopped kernals in a bowl and put them back in, they came out a bit too nuked. Take 2 was better than one but I think I shall either do it myself or stick with pre popped pop corn in the future.

Now listening to The Rasmus, they were once my favourite band and I bought all their albums and everything, Now 6 years on I just listen to them as much as any  other bnad that has fallen in to my life. TR  hold alot of meaning in thier songs esp in Dead Letters, always good for a gloomy day. A song that will always have my heart but always hold a different meaning is In the Shadows, its the song that made me go Goth.

Oh how I would love to just jump through a mirror in to a different life.

Summer summer where for art thou summer.

Well its a dissmal saturday evening, I have to say that I am so glad that I didn't LRP this weekend and that I am glad that Springfest was last weekend when we had sunshine (and cold). So I have spent all day in a sleepy haze half wishing that I was shopping and half wishing that I was back at Springfest. Until this evening when Doctor Who was on then I dragged myself downstairs to eat, Special fried rice and pizza goes well esp when you find yourself hungry all the damn time, but I found out that it can be sated by having a drink(not alcohol) so I really have to keep reminding myself to have a drink more than twice a day.

Dr Who was great as always, it was rather energising (sp), John says that Matt Smith sounds kinda like Jamie Mac from Lrp. Then I watched So you think you can dance, some dances were good, I think some just went by with out me noticing.

I think I may either be getting stronger or I am getting better at tickling John because I can take him down easier than I used to, and by " take down" I mean make him laugh enough that I can escape from him trying to tickle me ect. I dont wanna break the boy :P.

I wrote a document on the Drun which are the elven clan of which my LRP character comes from. It took me a while as I had to keep checking things with John as it was originally his, and I also got him to do a map too which is cool. As I was writing this stuuf I was thinking  it was a little harsh ect, but that was the point, I just think I am too soft (sometimes) . Which is both good and bad I guess, never give me a monster that has to be a bitch, I'll fall on my face. Oh well I'm only human, we have our weaknesses.

Instead of leaving you with a pic of what the weather looks like outside I will show you this ouc of a pretty flower I found on the net.

Untitled.

So today is like any other day, I'm unempolyed and slowly going out of my mind. John  got called up by Merlins so he could drive washing from Chepstow to Swidon for a few hours, utterly pointless IMO but its money I guess.
I would have gone for a walk around the forest taking pictures but I would have gotten lost or eaten by sheep or something. So I will do that tomorrow but I think I will do it regardless of John as I am going stir-fry crazy.

I have been oddly hungry lately, though I keep telling myslef not to binge, I want to keep my slender figure forever dammit. Even if I am craving ribs and veg.
My birthday pressies from Jas and Kat came yesterday which made me happy, Jas did her usual thing of putting cinfetti in the card so i carefully opened it over a not pad, though when moving it back in the envolpe two little stars escaped and are now underneath the keys on the laptop. I got awesome plasters that have different colored skeles on them (such a child) and a mug and a bookmark with the panguin of death on it....which reminds me of someone 0=] tehe.

The new Charliaine Harris book landed on my doorstep today which was good, I have somethign to amuse myself with for a day or two.

I want to go back to LRP, or atleast hang out with my friends more, oh well until summerfest.

Knackered!

Well it is the day after Springfest, I along with most of the people who went to springfest are very very knackered. For three days we'd be fighting for most of the day, whether it was monstering or playing we'd go from one to another, then festivities in the night (ie getting drunk) and during the day it would be hot then gradually get  colder and colder which meant sleeping when it was freezing and I had to will myself to get up in the night.

So at springfest we were out to help this backwater village and stop some evil dwarves (bastards*)  and it involved going in to mountains which is never fun because mountains in Ithron just fall to pieces, rubbish I tell ya. We also had the king there and I think it was the first time I saw Greg go down when he wasn't a monster ;)

And also after a banquet that was amazing I think I spent most of it with wine, cake and in giggles and of course with friends. Even though i got dizzy drunk I can remember it all :D apart from the plot ofc but I wouldn't have remembered that even sobre (ta fragg)

So I had enormous amounts of fun, I think Valvossa did some couragous things that will not be mentioned again. And race council meetings for the win.

*FnHers will now what I mean.

Well its 2 days til the fun starts

To springfest that is not the royal wedding. I mean its lovely that the pair are getting married and all but does it really have to shoved down our throats like this.

Anyway yesterday me and John got our in charecter invite to springfest, so we sat in bed reading through this letter like we were six, spelling out nearly every word until it made sense. S-W-AH-M-P-S whats a swam-- oh swamp. Thats basically what it was so I was in fits of giggles. So its two days til Springfest and I have to do the prep for it. So that means making a list of everything we need and making sure its all there, empting the car, putting down the seats then filling it again. And  also making sure we know the way there because its our first time there, but google maps has that sorted.

I've finished  reading two vampire books I bought recently they're both very good, one is Sherrilyn Keyon's night pleasures, which is about a women who falls in love with a darkhunter (vamp) from Thrace (A part of greece) and they have lots of sex and he has to kill this Daimon (vamp on steriods) ect ect.
The second book  is Lindsay Sands' Love bites, where a women gets turned vamp when she saves a mans (vamps) life by getting an axe in the chest from a psycho and this women gets turned gets freaked out about it, falls in love with Eteinne (man vamp) and they have to stop this psycho called Pudge from killing them becuase of what they are ect
They all live happily ever after but there are good bits, but I don't know if I want to invest in the rest of the series from the writers.

So for now I will wait for Dead Reckoning by Charliane Harris to arrive from amazon and i might make a decision, I need something to occupy me til the end of may as that is when I get my present from john which is True blood season three.

I am going to get on with my list, and make scrolls and prayer cards ect. Thank the god of technology for a photocopier :D

Sunshine

I have just finished reading Sunshine by Robin McKinley, it is a Sci fi vampire novel about a girl called Rae "Sunshine" Seddon who gets  captured by vampires and creates an alliance with a vampire who is also captured and they go on to kill this other big vampire and become kind of friends. But in this book the vampire Constantine is not the generic beautiful vampire I dont remember the exact description but he is describes as having mushroom colored grey skin with black hair ( I think), tall and well built moves like a vampire doesnt really express emotion, apart from in one bit where they kill the big nasty He kind of remonds me of Fenris from DA2(pic below). Rae is just a baker in a coffee house that knows a bit of magic. And it ends on one of those endings where you expect the next book, but Mckinley doesnt write sequals because shes odd.

After reading this I went to youtube to just look for songs and I found a Mumford and Sons song called Awake my soul with just reminded me of the alliance/ friendship between Con and Rae. And parts of the song correspond like "Lend me your hand and we'll conquer them all" reminds me of the battle when Con and Rae  are holding hands and fighting. "Lend me your eyes I can change what you see" Con gives Rae the ablility to see in the dark through healing her in a odd way. Also Mumford and sons I gave my all is a good song to go with this movie.

Now I have to find something else to read, or to do, I could go to Dragon age but John is on Sims Medievil. I might read the fourth TB book with will correspond to the upcoming fourth season. I would say I get to read the next one on my bday but it doesnt come out til May so I will have to wait, which is also when the 3rd season of true blood comes out which I have also asked for my birthday.
