I know it's today

torsdag 24 september 2009

Now I know that it was like... years ago (or months...) I last updated, but I didn't really felt like blogging.. My life isn't so interesting after all! But since I do have a lot on my mind right now I 'm going to pick it up again. Now I know that my life might be boring as hell (like the average person's life!), but then do not bother reading (not that I really believe that anyone will read my blog (with exceptions) since it will mostly be nonsense). I'll write about things that concerns me, and thing that I like. I may upload pictures of my current projects (currently none...). Enjoy!

I haven't had any school this week which have been absolutely fantastic since I've been really tired since I returned home from the LARP two weeks ago. I can't say that I had the greatest time there actually. The friend I went with (and shared tent with) turned out to be a totally different person. I swear that I did not recognize her at all... It was quite scary. And I also felt like she preferred the people we met there than me. Well, I might not be the most interesting person out there but she could have tried to handle it better.

Of course I don't want her to only be with me. It doesn't work like that. And I mean it also is my own fault. I'm quite shy and insecure with new people and I always seem to be either uninterested or stupid... but I'm not. I'm just scared that they will think me to be uninterested or stupid which, I guess, mirrors in my attitude...

And the fact that I also was on period during the time didn't make my LARP any better. But since my friend and her new friends mostly stayed in camp and was off-LARP I decided to walk around alone quite a lot which was refreshing. I met so many new people around the place, and I hope that I've polished my acting as my character 'til the LARP in spring so that people can feel that I was good and maybe remember me. That would be awesome!

I will, in a few weeks, e-mail the head-organizer of the Eleria (the name of the campaign) LARP to see which rules there are of making my role to a magician. My purpose to make my character Svala (means swallow (the bird)) a magician is that she wants to protect those close to her and her forest (she is a dryad). I heard from a friend that the magician rules had changed, but I want to know if that's true. And if it isn't I really want to know how I should do. I really want to develop my character.

And she's also going to get an Elvish name since so many do mistake her for being a elf. I've settled for Tuilinn (which means swallow in Elvish), so that she can pose for being an elf if that can help her to gain something from it. This LARP it was a disadvantage for her to be mistaken for an elf since the orcs made a promise to kill all elfs. But since I'm sneaky and quite good at melting into the shadows I wasn't killed. Yay for me!

Something that was quite annoying was that there was this druid that somehow got the thought that everyone on the LARP was after me and my friend (who was my sister in-LARP) and had made it his personal duty to keep me safe. My friend managed to get away and sent him after me and then he followed my every step for six hours.. And he had absolutely no sense of where my personal bubble was. Uh.. Not good.

Some things that I did which I think was really fun was that I went to both human villages (Navle and Stendal) and was let into both. In Navle (which is the bigger one) everyone who saw me though I was a wood elf (you know, like Legolas :D).

Random man: Oh, look, a wood elf. Hey, do you have any cider?

Me: Sorry no..

RM: Always so tight, those elfs..

Guardsman 1: What?! An elf?! Here?!

Guardsman 2: The alliance... the alliance..

GM 1: Oh, right!

It was so funny!!

So this week I've been visited by my very dear friend Johanna and we've watched lots of Torchwood (watch it if you haven't already!), and even tried to make a timeline over the Doctor Who/Torchwood/Sarah Jane Adventures.. which I do NOT recommend at all. It get really confusing... And when we tried to make out WHEN Ianto Jones got his job at Torchwood 3 we've got stuck since the air dates don't make any since. According to the air dates Ianto worked for Torchwood 1 in London in June (or July) 2006, but according to us he must've started working for Torchwood 3 in January 2006. You see! It doesn't work out.

We are such nerds. Love it? Hate it? I love it!

We also met up with a girl that we both know who was in town because she were going to watch a musical here in Stockholm. We'd a quite nice time. It was a little cold - but I guess that it just showed that fall is here. I love fall. I think it is a fantastic season. Fall and spring are my favorite seasons!

One scary thing that happened was that we've quite sure we saw a ghost. We were out with my dog quite late. I live close to a park and we were going through the park. First we met a cat.. or rather we get surprised by a cat (and very jumpy after that). We didn't see it first, we heard it when it hissed at my dog but since he has been living with a cat for years he couldn't care less so he ignored the cat. The cat then preceded to follow us since, I guess, it got interested in my dog since he didn't are about it. We've looked behind at it a few times but then it disappeared and that second we both see this big shadows flying over us. Since we both had met a cat earlier that we called the Lucius cat we thought the cat might be a Deatheater..

We were so jumpy that we run home.

In school (I study drama) we play this play which is written for us. I play this girl Holly who is going with her two friends Henrietta and Jasmina to fuck in a suburban area in Stockholm called Rissne.

It's a really fun role to characterize since she's so not me. And I think I do a pretty good work as well. I've got lots of compliments from my teachers on how I play her (even though we're just in the beginning of the work) which I think is fantastic. And I really wanted that part so that make me want to play as good as I can too. I rock. I feel like I own the stage (I'm an aspiring diva... or maybe not), and okay ... a little egocentric but I do feel like I play a little bit better than others in my class.. I don't say it out loud but it might show in how I act on stage! Amazing!

At my drama class at spare time I really hope that we'll play the Three Penny Opera since I do not know anything of it and it seems to be a fun play to play. And my teacher Lena said that we were going to do something dramatical.. I really hope to play TPO!!! Oklahoma! would be nice too. I played that play for like... five years ago and I played the character Jud. If Oklahoma is the play we're going to play I hope for playing Laury or Ado Annie... But since I'm the oldest girl in the group I might've been given the role of the old lady (forgot her name.. I suck). Yeah... Hm..
