So, Barack Obama won the Nobel peace price, a bit surprising, huh?
I hope he can find a way to take on a role as a peace maker.

Today I congratulate german author Herta Müller for the Nobel price in Litterature. And I put her on my To-Read-List. I heard she's a bit like Elfriede Jelinek so I am very curious/excited about it.

I can't believe how (totally) awesome A Very Potter Musical is. I watched for the first time a couple of weeks ago and it cracks me up. I esp. like Draco rolling all over the place and Ron is hilarious. I also love the Quirrel/Voldy pairing, my new otp. Voldy's hot, and the guy who plays Harry is pretty cute too. (although Hr/D makes me cringe a bit, but it's ok since they're both girls).
Speaking of otp's. I loved Brüno/Lutz in the movie Brüno. It's super cool that swedish actor Gustaf Hammarsten from one of my favorite movies Together plays Lutz. I feel like a proud mum, and my kid has just done the coolest project in kinder-garden.

music recs: Hajen (if you like swedish indie pop), and Holden (if you like alternative sounding rock/pop)
movie rec: the descent 2 - coming soon
fic rec: To Kiss First, Sirius/Remus by [info]remuslives23  

I'm so happy about some shows coming up: Project Runway, The Office and Celebrity Rehab. (I still don't have a job... so...)

F this, I'm going to Pigfarts!

HP 6  
You guys have ruined me!
I don't feel like watching the HBP because I've read to much fanfiction and canon just makes me depressed. Nothing against J.K or Harry/Ginny. I loved the idea of Harry ending up with Ginny at first, because she is a cool fangirl-nerd, just like me :D When the OOTP came out I was super excited, and I've been excited for HPB for a long time, but ever since I've seen the trailers I just don't feel like watching it anytime soon, because it just depresses me... Canon is boring.

I'd much rather see some other movie. Like Whatever works with Larry David or Brüno. Nothing angsty. My life is angsty as it is already. Something I am excited about however is the Emmy's. I love american award-shows. And I love TV.

My birthday was so much fun thank to some nice f-listers :D
and also thanks to my mum who bought me the concert tickets and a lovely Kathy Van Zeeland bag. (and thanks to the delicious new york blueberry cheese cake I made *drools*)

RECS
 
- H/D Fic: In the air, by:[info]enchanted_jae cutest fic ever, now with awesome sequel. Yay!
 
- H/D Art: Napping by my favorite H/D artist [info]dirty_darella

 and thank you[info]lotus_lizzy for the e-card :)
and thanks to everyone else who wished me a happy birthday, It means a lot to me. *big smile*

I'm sure everyone has seen this MJ tribute from Stockholm (my city!)  kind of cool.
(btw why is Bill O'Reilly such a jerk? every time I see him he says something stupid)

Now I'm looking for a job. And it seems impossible and hopeless, especially considering the high unemployment atm. And my lack of social skills and inexperience doesn't help. But I got to stay positive, and do my very best (and more), I'm sure it'll work out somehow.

I just have to rec this awesome fic called: 
Being an historical record of events surrounding the unfortunate truth-or-dare game of february the twenty-second, and consequences thereof. by: [info]sodomquake.
It's Sirius/Remus which I don't usually read, but it's very good and very cute *nods* 

Here is the adress:  www.moonpants.org/txt/beinganhistoricalrecord.html

Anyway the real reason I am posting is because I want to give some of my Oscars predictions. Yay!

That's it. Lots of love, and have a nice Sunday everyone.

I'm a 25 year old library science grad student from stockholm with an addiction to fandom, slash and feminist lit. I spend way too much time on the interweb watching my shows and stalking my flisters. I'm an obsessive fangirl, a vegetarian and a NERD. I love french music & cinema, improv comedy, Sylvia Plath, Emily Dickinson and Eddie Izzard.

Favorite pairings:
Harry Potter: Harry/Draco, Albus/Scorpius, Sirius/Remus, Voldemort/Quirrel (avpm), Dumbledore/Grindewald, Ginny/Luna, Ginny/Neville.
Whose Line: Col/Ry, Jeff/Chip, Brad/Wayne. 
TV: Michael/Dwight, Toby/Pam, Stewie/Rupert, Spongebob/Patrick, JP/Craig, Will/Kate, Mulder/Scully, Tony/Carol, Tim/Dawn.
Movies: Shaun/Zach, Jack/Ennis.
RL: Neil/David, Lindsey/Sam, Ellen/Portia, John/Scott.  


(but I almost exclusively read H/D fan fiction, my otp)

It'd be cool if you could send me a sign that indicates there's a discernible afterlife,
that it's not just eternity in a box because if that's what it is, I'd rather not go through with it.

 10 reasons gay marriage is wrong.

01) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.

02) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

03) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

04) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

05) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britney Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

06) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

07) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

08) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.

09) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.
