Desperation of a fangirl
Sep. 29th, 2006 11:55 amAm frantically trying to download the season opener of "Supernatural". Got to 83% on one download before it crapped out on me, so have started a new one, it's on 5% so far. This hectic downloading stuff can be seriously stressful. I refuse to go through my flist until I've seen it, which sould hopefully be sometime today.
Okay, lets rewind to Wednesday afternoon. We were looking at a flat on the othe side of the city. It was gorgeous, it was perfect for us, and I could actually imagine living there for a while. Sadly we lost the bidding, well, we didn't even get to start bidding before our maximum was reached. But it's made us hopeful that we will find something that everybody can be happy with.
When we got back home we were pleasently suprised by a phone call from my Aunt Teresa, who lives in Germany, saying that she would be coming for a visit the next day. She'd booked the flight and would be staying for a little under a week. I was very happy, haven't seen her since Graduation, and that was such a short gathering, so I was glad that she'd be coming.
Anyway, Thursday I spent some time at work helping out, and then my parents picked me up on their way to the airport. The plane arrived early. Was so lovely to see her again, whe was very happy to be coming too. We all piled into the car and drove back home. My aunt got all her stuff in order. She'd brought some sweets for me, jummy. Sat downstairs with them talking for a while. They went to a showing, I opted to stay home as nobody was overly enthusiastic about that flat and I had stuff to do.
In the evening we all just took it easy, sat watching telly and talking a bit. I started playing with my aunt's phone, as I can never stay away from new toys. My mom's been nagging me that I should get a new cell, so I just wanted to check out what my Aunt's Motorola had to offer. I'm really a Nokia person to be honest, but figured I had to see what the others are offering. Ended up playing with all the functions on her phone for a while. Kind of in an offhand remark I told my mom that I wanted one of those phones for christmas. As it is a phone and MP3 player, awesom. My aunt understood this and said I could have her phone. I had no idea what to say... I mean I did want it, but I couldn't just take her phone. I said it was too much, but bothe her and my mom said that my aunt didn't need half of the functions on that phone, and she could have one of ours. So now I have a new Motorola phone. Which rocks. I spent rest of the evening sorting out the phonebooks in the mobiles that had been exchanged. My aunt will have to send me the applications to the phone when she gats back to Germany, so then I'll be loading it up with some choice tunes. I still think it was way to generous, however we do trade a lot of stuff within the family, so it's not unusual.
I finished my "Supernatural" marathon this morning. Now I'm just waiting for the episode I'm downloading to finish and for
beluga to get here, so I can finally watch the season opener. 43% so far, just hope this one works.
Wanna hit the cinema this weekend. 'Little Miss Sunshine' actually made it to the bigscreen over here.
isil80?
beluga? Wanna join me?
Okay, now for part 3 of my Norwegian artist pimping, you can find part 1 & 2 in my previous posts.

Espen Lind - Black Sunday
One of the best videos ever made.
Great song from Espen Lind,the greatest singer of Europe.
I know Espen Lind is pretty popular in Norway, but I have no idea if anybody outside of Norway has ever heard of him. He's been on the scene for quite a while, kind of comes and goes.

First single off the Duper Sessions, Norway's Sondre Lerche is crooning in top form.
I had no idea who Sondre Lerche was for the longest time, but he's very popular, and I do believe he's made a name for himself outside Norway as well, but honestly I'm not sure.

Whimsical feat. Maria Mena - Everytime
I know nothing about Whimsical, but Maria Mena is very popular and she's making a name for her outside of Norway as well. She's even performed on "Late Show with David Letterman".

Date: 2006-09-29 06:32 pm (UTC)What a great aunt! I'm using a Motorola right now but i'm kinda due for an upgrade too. My free ringtone choices are lame! They want me to upgrade my SIM card anyway so maybe i'll see what they're offering.
Hope you see the movie!

I was so stunned when she said I could just have it. She is one of the nicest people I know.
I've already got a Supernatural song on there, so the theme is somewhat complete.
Looks like it won't be until next weekend, if I don't want to go alone that is, but will see it soon.

Date: 2006-09-30 08:25 am (UTC)We started out with Motorolas when they first came out, but I quickly found Nokia, and have been using those up until now. Motorola has made some major improvements.
