wow, that’s a good amount for the start. Not being a new user I have 62 :)

Yeah! I am like whoa mom! She is finding lots of family and friends from work. I am trying to show her how it works she is a bit hesitant but I think she’ll like it once she gets used to it.

That further one is already finished? Looks beautiful! I have all I would need to paint, but have no good idea for a picture… :)

Thanks! Yes the far away one is finished! I just finished it this afternoon and started the one in front, I have been trying to think of fun things to paint for a long time. I got inspired by this guy. Hope you find what you want to paint! I love painting.

I like the colours of your cloud, mine is dark, and I like my url in green :)

Yes! It must have known you love the color green! I also like how both of our clouds have Michael Stipe in them. Te he he. :]


allthisrunningaround said:  Hi. I just only now learned where your icon is from! :) Read an article and this pic was added. It's from "Moonrise Kingdom", right? Why did you choose it? Is that a good movie? [Saw it's with Bruce Willis, must be good...]

Yes! It is Moonrise Kingdom, I really liked that movie! And yes Bruce Willis is really funny in it. I would highly recommend seeing it! Nice talking to you! :D

How did there appear two ‘what’?! lol I like to see my always stupid mistakes. But you don’t mind, do you? :D The pirates are on TV now, btw. They repeat it for ~ the 6th time, but my guess.

Ahha. Of course I don’t mind! :D. Yeah I feel like whenever I turn on the TV they are showing one of the pirates movies! lol. 


allthisrunningaround replied to your post: I’m also not that big Johnny Depp’s fan, but why aren’t you a big fan anymore?

Well, I don’t what what context it was, but they act for money, that’s their job…So many great works are created for money in history. Only now ‘for money’ aka for ‘popularity’ often mean ‘less worth’. For money or not. actor cant play what he cant

Yeah I see what you’re saying and that is a good point. I have tried looking for the interview but I can’t find it. I was much younger when I read it so I might have taken it completely out of context. I guess I was just so crazy about him the thought that he didn’t get into acting for the art but rather to be rich made me sad. It is not that I dislike him now, I am just not so crazy about him. I don’t have to see all of his films anymore. lol.

He used to be my favorite actor and I would see all of his films and get all the magazines and everything with him in it. He used to be a big hero of mine because he was weird and I felt like he taught people to just be themselves, which I liked. Unfortunately, I read an interview with him where he said something about “acting for the money” and it broke my heart. I was just really disappointed, I think only doing something for money is deplorable. Also I haven’t seen any movies since Pirates that I liked him in.

His lectures were beyond amazing. Funny, I have a difficulty to memorize dates, and so I wasn’t that good in history, but I chose to study in a faculty of History! Luckily my thing wasn’t history as such and didnt saw many dates in those 4 years.

Yeah, I love professors who really care about they are teaching and passionate about their field, makes class so much better. :]. And that is funny you ended up in a faculty of history! Glad you didn’t have to see too many dates. That would make me crazy! lol. 


allthisrunningaround said:  Wow, it would be so interesting to me too! My favourite one was an Ethics' lecturer :) clearly very close to philosophy, too. He gave us lectures more on ideals, but he made some references to media, it's impossible to not to mention it when you criticize society/culture :)

Very true! Your Ethics’ lecturer sounds very cool I would love to take a class like that. Hopefully I will be able to find one like that at my university. :]. I love classes that make you think and see things through different perspectives that you can apply to everyday life rather than just memorizing dates and names. Those are the kinds of classes I get the most out of. :]

Did I go into a wrong classroom the other day on purpose to look at a beautiful professor? Absolutely. 

#he looks just like this gif - o___O [a bit jealous, but it’s positive]. Enjoy his lectures and…don’t forget to listen to! :D

Good advice! :D. He is very interesting as well, probably my favorite professor so far. Such an awesome guy. 


allthisrunningaround replied to your photoset: This is what I woke up to on my Facebook wall. Oh….
