I think it’s about time to separate a bit from the weekly cries of despair I’ve made in here for the past months. I’m getting better, as well as I’m in move again, so it’s about time for me to buy new stuff and do something. And I did. I feel somewhat alive now.
It's huge ...
… WAIT. Before I carry on with the above I’ll allow myself to resume the past two weeks.
After failing the first final exam the next thing to brighten my day was eating lunch with a good friend, then going to work and meet up with uhh.. my ‘boyfriend’ afterwards. I knew what was going to happen which in fact was the case; he broke up because I was at fault and wrong in life. It’s easy, it’s obvious; humans are funny, irreasonable creatures! Especially narrow-minded ones like him.
I should’ve known it from the very start, it wasn’t a one-time issue what we had but something I walked into completely blindfolded, as I started to distress myself for someone who didn’t really bother with looking after me. The best way to dodge further justifications is breaking up and skitter away. That was a great move, that’s why I despise him right now. A lot.
But it’s enough about this. Honestly, I want to swamp out this displeasing period of time as quick as possible. None of all this ever happened unless I get to hear a honest apologize.. but since that won’t happen I’ll just stick with this attitude.
Petty vermins aren’t capable of thinking that far after all. I still sound somewhat embittered? That’s possibly right.
After that break-up I’ve received a lot of support from various people, some took their time to look after me and keep my company, for which I’m really, really thankful. Although I had to withstand countless breakdowns there’s been at least one person to comfort me; either with words, gestures or simple deeds.
Two days later I had my second and last final exam for this year. I couldn’t bring myself over doing any preparations until I sat right in front of the examinal sheets. But I managed to solve it without problems, except that the time was a bit too short for me. But with that I got free from one more burden, and the last thing I longed for afterwards was the weekend. And beer.
The entire last week I kept running around because of stress at work, deadlines, failing internet connections and desperate situations in general. Some of that ended as I, despite the effort and sleepless nights, screwed up this semester exam for work.
The following weekend I left to Germany to meet some friends. It was the first time I got completely wasted and did what I felt like to do, without giving a damn about something or somebody. It was like I scored off somebody and I felt incredibly good while doing so. We attended the Medieval plays of Maximilian in Horb on Saturday evening and we saw Cultus Ferox live after midnight. It was great. The amount of Met I drank there was probably too much, but it still was great. It was great, great, great.
And I knew there were two more days left to wait for something even better to come.
On Monday evening I had a little appointment, so the first evening passed very quickly. It was the same day where my internet started to work again. On Tuesday I’ve pulled an early shift at work just to leave earlier in the afternoon, since I had to head to Basel that evening – but that’s another story that just won’t fit in here.
Wednesday was short as well, I took the morning off because of Tuesday evening and the only thing I had to attend in the afternoon was some boring course. School started again yesterday, Russian class was the most (NOT) entertaining class since I had to see and reek my dear former ‘boyfriend’.
… nevermind that, I’m glad that something called ignorance exists.
Apart from that, the day itself was pretty good.. But in exchange today wasn’t. I’ve screwed up mathematics and the only urge I feel right now is to punch something, because having a mark of 1,5 written on my school report is just sad. I hope the calculation exam turns out better, I’ve really tried my best ｡･ﾟﾟ(ﾉД`)
And now I’m here. I’ve got my salary, a package, and some more stuff. Some of the worst exams are finally over and all I can do is to kick back and relax for a bit. Let’s see what I’m going to do tomorrow…
Loot update – June ‘10
Of course I’ve also purchased a lot of stuff before, but it’d take ages if I had to update since past September. What I could do instead is to update more regularily starting from now.

General stuff
- Labtec pulse-386 speaker set
I honestly didn’t plan to buy new speakers. At least not for the moment. Everything happened when I entered an electronics store to look for an iPod, and then I saw the set standing there. Pricy. Shiny.
..SHINY!! So I purchased one with the leftover 25 bucks I carried around.
And that’s the box. I still need to arrange the place to make it more apt for the set, the cord’s a bit too short and I don’t have enough space on my desk. Is it just me or does it really bear some resemblance to the lovely companion cube?
The set is, however, not the best pick but it’s still better than the two trashcans i used to have before.. way better.
Don't pay attention to that broken.. uhh... device. It's all about the earphones.
- Sennheiser MX270 In-ear headphones
The nightmare started about two weeks ago, when the earphone plug of my mp3-player started to go nuts in a way that made it quite worthless. The connector broke inside so that the sound came through the speaker instead of the head-/earphones.
What to do in a situation like that? Open the device, screw things up some more as they were beforehand, just to make it useful for another while since I can’t afford to spend 300 bucks at one time for an iPod. The first thing I did was to cut the wires connected to the tiny speaker. That’s where I thought that it could work out like that, but it seems that I was wrong about that. Today’s been the very last day alive for the cheap-ass player. As I tried to press various spots to make the sound work again, I noticed that it wouldn’t work anymore.
This is what expected me when I reopened it at home:
lol whut?
The plug connector ragged and fell out. So.. it’s definitely useless now. Rest in peace, my dear mp3 player.
I’ve actually hated you most of the time we spent together. You didn’t even last a year.. why do you leave me when I’m on the verge of being broke again? WHY?! ｡･ ﾟ･｡* ｡ +ﾟ｡･.｡* ﾟ + ｡･ﾟ･(ﾉД`)
Once I found a replacement player I’m going to give my blessings to the old one… by playing baseball with it.
Figures, etc.
... miiiiiiiiiii~
- The Melancholy of Haruhi-chan: Mikuru Asahina plush by Chara-ani
A little present I received from a friend right after the first exam. It’s so lovely. It’s sharing my bed with Cthulhu, Cirno and me (´ ω`)
It's taking over my desk!!1
- Birdy the Mighty DECODE: Birdy Gekisou ver. Cold Cast figure by ALPHAMAX
… FINALLY!! I’ve been waiting so badly for this since the first day I discovered and preordered it. The package actually arrived last Saturday, but I could only get it today after school. And heck, it is worth all the money, as I really don’t care how much I’ve spent on this including the shipping and customs fees. It was much, but not too much for me. HA!
Time to finally open it later …
- A *CENSORED* nobody’s going to see me with
There’s nothing more to add really. No, it’s not a maid costume.. … Not yet.
In Memoria of Awesome
(・ω´・)
More about the gig might follow the next days if I managed to survive the supplementary math exam (which won’t happen).
I guess I’ll end this day with unpacking Birdy, studying and then sleep. It’s hopefully my last time of struggling for a while since next week’s exams aren’t as difficult as the last ones.
However, I’ve caught myself writing this again while kiseki is playing and set on repeat mode – but it’s Birdy after all <3
The new speakers are doing a good job, and 隣人’s losT Paradise sounds even more freaking awesome than it was before – just as a sidenote (and because I’m a total sucker for both of the aforementioned songs). ♫
I’m sure there’s something I forgot again. But it’s surprising I managed to write this much since it’s been a while I’ve been able to do so and in this way. It was… refreshing.
