This internet ssuccckkksss oh my GOD. And I have like four hours until boarding, I did not sign up for this shit. I couldn't even get a proper signal in Boston! I apologize in advance for all the typos there will be. Or would be, if I had no spell check.
Anyway. Good morning, I am right now at München. Munich. Whatever. My internal clock is quarter to five but the one hanging from the ceiling says it's quarter to eleven. I have slept maybe three hours tonight/last night and the food was simply horrid. There's a little cafe thing quite close to my gate, so I could go eat but I'm too tired to think about eating and besides I'm still sorta nauseous from the bumpy landing, ughhh. Let's just say I'm not at my best at the moment. Maybe I should find a quiet corner and sleep for a few hours...
I'll be arriving at 18:35, by the way. Then I'll sleep until tomorrow.
I read The Alchemist of Souls last weekend. It was good. Spent the whole weekend reading, or most of it anyway, we did go to this beach "party" thing on Saturday evening. There were free hot dogs, so I'm not complaining. Anyway, went ahead and bought the other two books as well, although I haven't had much time to read them yet. The characters are awesome. But dude, Coby is 17 how has her period not started yet?? Like I'm not entirely sure about the exact biology, but she has gone through puberty (her breasts have grown which is why she has the corset) and isn't that when they start?? Right?? Also, how do you pronounce Kiiren. I always read it like the Finnish way, but it was hyphenated as Ki-iren several times, so..?
The whole soul-rebirth thing was pretty cool. For a sec in the middle I though that the reason Mal and Sandy were twins was because of Erished's soul, but it getting split up does make more sense. I was actually expecting some kind of mind meld thing at the end where Mal would take up the entirety of Erished's soul to let Sandy live a normal life (and I may have been kinda rooting for Mal/Kiiren, but I was pretty sure that wasn't gonna happen with Coby around... But that's cool, Coby is awesome and I really like them together as well, haha). Although I think it's kinda unfair that in order for Sandy to stay sane his body needs to be taken over by Erished (at least that's what I understood?) because I kinda thought that they would co-exist/be merged into one soul or something. Now there's essentially two people in one body and that's not good.
What else did I want to say about that, uhh..... I was really surprised about what happened to the theater group! Like that was really... big. Brilliant, although horrible for them, and really touching writing. The writing is otherwise really good too, it really sweeps you away. Also I like the changing perspective, and I like how you can tell who's speaking from the way they address the others, you know the names and stuff. So yeah, really good, thank you for leaving it with me~
(I might art about it later next week, huehue~)
I watched The LEGO Movie in the airplane. And oh my god it was brilliant. Just awesome. Awesome. I mean not only is it made with LEGOs (which is already insanely cool), but the story was brilliant and the jokes funny and ahhh. Thank god the seat next to me was empty, otherwise they would've been very weirded out but my overly emotional responses to a bunch of LEGOs on a little screen. If anyone tells you the kids' movies are dumb, you slap them, because kids' movies are some of the best there are.
There's a girl here. She's sitting on a luggage trolley while her probably-boyfriend pushes her around. She's snapping pictures on a camera and I couldn't help but grin at her and she grinned back. Now they switched and she's pushing him and they're mad cute oh no. It's funny how little things can brighten up your whole day. That reminds me. Last Thursday, as we were going to Canada, we were driving on the highway and I was just gazing out the window when I glanced at the car we were passing. There were three girls in it (could've been four, I'm not sure if there was one or two people in the backseat), young-ish girls, about our age, and the one in the backseat was waving out the window. And so I waved back as we passed and her face just exploded into a smile.
And that is just one of those things that make your whole day a bit better. So maybe I am hungry and tired and starting to get a headache, but still I can't really be pissed when the world is full of interesting people doing interesting things and sometimes you get to peek into those lives even just a bit. And when random people do something fun and spontaneous you just have to smile. I miss my friends. I miss mom and dad and all of you. I'll see you soon.
Pie out.
Told you you'll probably like it!
