Remember the guy who's gray lamb's wooI sweater I bit?

Yeah, he performed at the Emmys this year. Without the sweater. I didn't know my drool was that hard to remove... (In case the guy in question should read this, I sincerely apologize. Next time I'll bring a hankie and put it on your shoulder before we hug. And remember to wear cologne next time, too! Because of that I couldn't use that pick-up line I'd thought of the night before!)



Qué cariño... I almost laughed my head off watching this. And strangely enough his voice kinda fits with the "Love Boat" theme. I don't know whether I should laugh or cry... Nah, I'll just go with laughing. Apparently this was the most controversial things he's ever done. Quite the bad boy, innee?

Meanwhile, sorry for not posting for a while now, but I've been really busy - as some of you might know. And besides I've got an SFG assignment due Tuesday, so yeah, guess who's isolating herself in her flat this weekend... :-S Nonetheless, my conscience is clear as we had a 3x birthday celebration on Wed. I think we all had a good time, despite the somewhat inconvenient hours for some. I, for one, certainly had a great time! Oh yeah, and we also happened to watch a movie which definitely isn't for the faint-hearted... *lol*

And did I mention that my best friend's ENGAGED?!?!?!? SHE FRIGGIN' IS!!! :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D I'm so indescribably happy for her!!! It happened last Sunday and they've already started making plans. I won't mention which plans that have been made (in case this info ends up with someone she doesn't approve of), but I will reveal that yours truly has been appointed as MAID OF HONOR!!! *happy-dancing and bouncing around the room for what seems like ages* I've met the groom several times already and he really deserves her. I am so incredibly thrilled for her you can't even imagine! It may sound cheesy, but she and her siblings have been like my own siblings ever since we moved to V., so it's almost like a sister of mine were to be married. *sentimental*

Meanwhile, I have absolutely NO clue how to do this whole Maid of Honor thing. Yeah, I walk up the isle behind her, arrange the hen night (which won't be anything fancy) and support her if she should feel too stressed out, but what else? Is that it? Probably so. As I said, I've never done this before. Still, it's gonna be a wonderful once-in-a-lifetime experience for all of us, and I wouldn't miss it for the world!!! I don't care if we're going to the Philippines or anywhere else this summer; I'm gonna friggin' join in on this!!!

Anyway, besides this, uni's treating me ok. Got my first mandatory assignment (which is in front of me right now), Hispan. Lit.'s getting increasingly challenging (but I'm hanging in there) and Spanish in Practice is the easiest, but the most annoyingly time-consuming subject I'm taking this year. I should be focusing on SFG and Hispan. Lit., really, but it's difficult, as the the harder subjects have less things to be done in writing. At the moment. Hence, prioritizing is of the essence.

Intenté participar en un café español y portugués el martes pasado. Yo y una amiga de mi clase fuimos a Frederikke para encontrar al grupo allí ya que nos habían mandado un mensaje a través de nuestro profesor que iban a encontrarse en Frederikke. No podíamos irnos el martes antepasado, pero intentamos irnos esa semana. ¿Y qué vimos? ¡Que no había nadie allí! No conocimos a nadie que era parte de ese grupo ni podíamos distinguir a alguien que hable español... No entendimos nada. Yo me intenté ponerme en contacto con la Asociación Latinoamericano para que me pudiese dar información del encuentro. Encontré dos direcciones por correos electrónicos, pero una me devolvió mi mensaje y otro no me ha dado ninguna respuesta.

ME DA ASCO.

POR FAVOR.

Voy a preguntarle a mi profesor la semana siguiente sobre eso. Espero que puedamos ponernos en contacto ésa vez. Uf.


Signing off (slightly annoyed at the two emails that aren't functioning, but still generally happy),
