Biggest news today

• Our Crown Princess Victoria gave birth to a daughter, ergo, Sweden's got a new baby princess!
• J.K Rowling is writing a new book!

Holy moly! Is this the real life, is this just fantasy? 

Head's up

Me and Dollythe have decided to give each other 15 subjects to write about in seperate blog posts. The deadline is a month, so expect some of those entries to show up every other day or so.

When you cut down to the bone

I was in an 80s mood today, so I decided to watch The Breakfast Club again. That film is brilliant in every single aspect. There's something special about 80s films, especially ones directed by John Hughes. I love them. I flippin' love them. The Breakfast Club will be my all time favourite though, even though I adore any film that has the Brat Pack in it.

Tumblrs, click on them

I posted something like this on my old blog, and it is time for an update.

• maltedpotatoes
  The tumblr of one of the most hilarious people I've ever spoke to on tumblr. She's irish and a fellow Sherlockian.
• cumberbat
  Pretty hard to guess, huh? Basically, the best tumblr of anything Sherlock or Benedict Cumberbatch related. 
• amandabellman
  The brilliant swede who draws the comic The Horrid Adventures of Jeff & Ted.
• johnlocktexting
  A tumblr with texts (mostly drunk texts) from various Sherlock characters. It's fantastic in every way.
• newqueenbee
  Joseph Birdsong's very own tumblr - he's also known as the lonely, gay and skinny guy on youtube.
• steal-the-tardis
  One of the best Whovian blogs out there.

Genius

Basically, John Cleese is one of the most brilliant human beings to walk the earth. Therefore, all of you should watch this and afterwards you will realize why.

A rant about films

The sad thing about living an hour from civilization is that it's almost impossible to do things in general. The past couple of months I've been dying to see numerous films in the cinema, which is quite rare. But no, to see a film in the cinema is apparently too much to ask for. Most of the time school gets in the way, even during the weekends. Ugh. It's awful. 
  They aren't showing Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy in the cinemas here anymore. And I never got a chance to see it. I guess I'll have to wait until I can watch it in some other way, but it would be something great to see Benedict Cumberbatch and Gary Oldman in the same film in the cinema. Imagine, seeing them on the big screen!
   I'm not in too much despair though. War Horse will hopefully come to the cinermas over here soon - which has both Benedict Cumberbatch and horses in it. Oh, well.

This flippin' fandom

This must be one of the most beautiful things out there. All the feelings.

"Ignorance is bliss, I guess."

Family get-together yesterday. I hid in my room most of the time. Not that I don't love them, but sometimes they're too much.
 I'm thinking of ordering a few books or films. I really, really want the extra material found on the imported Sherlock season 2 DVD, and I crave for new films to fill up my shelf. Some books I'd like to order are the other books by John Green - like Will Grayson, Will Grayson and An Abundance of Katherines, but also the three Lord of the Rings books. Possibly The Hobbit aswell. Doesn't it sound like a swell idea? If only I were made of money. 

Oh, well.

Hampton, Arkansas

As some of you may know, I'm going to the U.S in the fall to study in an American high school for a year. Probably as a senior. Anyway, yesterday I got my host family! They seem wonderful, and they live in Hampton, Arkansas - a small town that seems great. My high school is called Hampton High and their mascot is a bulldog, which is quite interesting! Since the school is pretty small aswell most of the students will probably know that I'm from Sweden. If that's a perk or not I'm not sure of.

I'm so happy at the moment! Gah, I've got a host family! 

Oh lord, I love tumblr.

We've cleaned up and now it's time to learn

My lips are insanely chapped and my teeth are hurting. Lovely. 

So, about this procrastination thing. I'm good at it. Brilliant, actually. So are most of my friends in our tiny class. We've got an essay due to Friday, an essay which was assigned to us two weeks before Christmas Break. We've had about one and a half month or so to finish it. Yeah. How far do you think I've gotten? Yep. I haven't written a single thing. Not even a headline. I only decided what to write about today! I'll have to work my butt off tomorrow. Or we'll ask our teacher if it's alright if we do it on Monday instead.


I'm such a good student.
