Goodbye dear 2006 -Howl’s Moving Castle -

GO and catch a falling star,
Get with child a mandrake root,
Tell me where all past years are,
Or who cleft the devil’s foot,
Teach me to hear mermaids singing,
Or to keep off envy’s stinging,
            And find
            What wind
Serves to advance an honest mind.

If thou be’st born to strange sights,
Things invisible to see,
Ride ten thousand days and nights,
Till age snow white hairs on thee,
Thou, when thou return’st, wilt tell me,
All strange wonders that befell thee,
            And swear,
            No where
Lives a woman true and fair.

If thou find’st one, let me know,
Such a pilgrimage were sweet;
Yet do not, I would not go,
Though at next door we might meet,
Though she were true, when you met her,
And last, till you write your letter,
            Yet she
            Will be
False, ere I come, to two, or three.

 - “Song” by John Donne.

Jul Jul Strålande Jul – ep 02

Xmas is here! We celebrate the whole thing on the 24th.

Also today I’ve taken the step from “PVP IS SCARY!!!”- to “OMG SO MUCH FUN~!” On WoW. Best Xmas gift ever… not so quite but still quite good =).
Also, I found myself re-reading Howl’s Moving Castle. Once I finished it I started to read the first chapter right away. Lovely lovely book. I’d love to read Diana Wynne Jones’ other books… but I’m so awfully in love with the characters in HML <3

Ohwell, time for Xmas dinner, Kalle Ankas Jul, burning down houses with Candles and all that. Xmas this year doesn't... feel like Xmas at all. It's turning more and more into something alike my birthday. Thou our house is awfully xmasy.

GOD JUL! (I was to lazy to draw a xmas pic, I could hardly call myself an artist =p this is when everyone draw xmas pics of prony characters to showoff. SO! I'm showing off mr you-know-who.)

Jul Jul Strålande Jul – ep 01

So, in a xmas’y spirit and following a couple o’ year old tradition; We’ve had our xmas celebration in Skellefteå even this year. It was awesome and so much fun to see all the guys gather togheter and we’ve had a couple of great days of playing videogames, making fewd and walking about. I also got to meet some new ppl that were all pretty nice =D a apartment filled with gamers can’t be too bad xD Also strangly enough I met my childhood best friend since 4year old Lanni at a Supermarket. Non of us supposingly live in Skellefteå so I was really surprised to see Josefin there. Apperantly she’s moving to Skeå to be with her fiancée (freaks me out when everyone around me gets married and have kids, hohohoh.) So I invited her to our lunching on tuesday. Was awesome to see her again after all these years.
My presents for the guys this year (3 of them) where a hit. I wanted to give something with a thought behind it and something a little special from the normal stuffies… so I made them some funny-personalized-pics!

These here are for; Erik, Silly and Simon! Erik really got the silly cow face I made for him and he laughed pretty hard at it.

Well, other than this I’ve been getting to play some FFXII. I dare to say this game is prolly the FFXII I’ve been looking most forward to for YEARS. Ever since I saw the movie of the english voices released from E3 it’s been even worse. The voices are so awesome I can’t say if I’d think the JP voices would fit any better… and I’m usually not pro dub. I think the thing I’m so found with is the old english they use (They’re using some really awesome words too!). Usually games have these really ameeeeerican voice actors so hearing voices such as these feels so refreshing. They fit in. They do an awesome job to fit their characters… and I’m in love. If you are like me; live in EU and Don’t have a chipped PS2… check out a preview on youtube!

Another game news was Simon getting his Wii on Monday (!) soo I’ve also seen Zelda; Twilight princess and even got to give a go at some of the sport games (bowling lol <_<). The controller was actually pretty neat...

Ohwell, our gathering beeing over I feel a bit down that we only can gather round for such things and that we're all so seperated. I told Silly I wanna go down to Gothenburg some day and visit. I always wanted to go there =). 

 Last but least... what Lanni got! I have to say... I couldn't have gotten anything better from the guys.

Erik gave me an awesome awesome KH Ultimania and loads of Skittles >=3 . It has stuff from all the 3 games! Silly gave me the book for Howl’s Moving Castle <3. I've been trying to find it here in town in swedish... but now I got the original english to read. Simon gave me a Gift Card from EB games which'll help my getting off FFXII or WoW: The Burning Crusade. And Conny (!) gave me a really nice looking camera/whatever holder that I can carry around my digicam in! Been needing one for ever!  Sorta wish I'd gotten him something too.

Ohwell. I had an awesome time with the guys. Too bad the last days got a bit hetic but. Overall it was prolly my best Xmas this year.
