But all of those games will be inferior to Bloodborne!
I'm serious. XD I'm settling on PS4 because of that. Miyazaki <3

What even is blood borne?
That looks pretty cool. The only band shirt tank top I have is an Overkill one. I generally prefer standard t-shirts (or girlies) but for the hot summer concerts that's just too perfect.
Hah same here. For the longest time I had nothing but t-shirts and one longsleeve (sadly oversized, but, it was cold in Wacken and I stupidly didn't bring a coat or long sleeves and was desperate, so I bought an XL Moonsorrow LS for the cold nights under the tent... xD), but I finally got a hoodie last year (MDF one) and that Overkill tanktop at their last concert (which was so damn good, too bad Kreator was boring). About time I diversify my wardrobe I suppose.I prefer regular shirts too, but I have about 25+ band shirts in my current wardrobe rotation so I at least try to even it out with the occasional top or tank haha!

That looks nice what's the back like?Oh, also just bought this too!
Pretty good. Summer break was much needed, finished up some proposals and some TAs so I've been free for the next couple of weeks. The break is nice, but having nothing to do is so depressing. Anyone doing any summer traveling?
Next weekend I'll be in NYC to see the Kara Walker sculpture and maybe go to NYC Gaf meetup (maybe).
July 4th weekend I'll be in NH hiking in the White Mountains.
July 15th-28th I'll be in New Orleans.
And we will try to squeeze in a trip to Lithuania in August if I don't get the funding for the projects I applied for.
That sounds awesome! The White Mountains are lovely. Never hiked there but I crossed them once or twice in road trips, they look so gorgeous during the fall season. And while I'm not the biggest fan of large cities, I still feel like I should visit NYC at least once in my life. It feels like I'm missing out right now. I should convince my boyfriend to do a short trip for the summer, maybe a 3-4 day one to Boston/New England or NYC or Niagara Falls or something like that, a place within driving distance that I have yet to visit. I don't drive though and he hates driving so I'll either have to convince him (like I did a few years ago for a weekend trip to Québec City) or we'd have to take a bus.
But yeah I don't have any big/overseas travelling planned this year. I had a big expensive (but awesome, best-of-my-life easily) trip last year, when I went to the Galapagos and then the Ecuadorian Amazon jungle, and while I'm not really hurting for money I should be a bit more cautious with spending for now, I guess. Tempted to save up for this next year, I know the folks who organise these trips (same organisers as the Galapagos trip and others I've been on), but it'll be hard to convince the SO since it's pricey...
In fact I'll have to work this summer. xD Just one or two weeks, contractual dev stuff, then back to working at home, so no biggie, just easy money. I hope Fantasia Fest is good this year. It's hit or miss, but last year was pretty good, so I fear this year will be meh, since it seems to alternate between good and mediocre from year to year... xD

It was. It was really expensive, but it could have been even more so (there was a special deal with the ship since it was during Easter), and it was totally worth it because it's an experience I'll remember the rest of my life. I got really lucky too. The organisation I linked to had announced the trip on Facebook, very limited spaces, on a very small cruiseship with about 18 cabins only. I'm not on Facebook so by the time I learned of it, it was sold out. But I was put on a waiting list and luckily, a few people cancelled and I got a place. So lucky!God, that sounds amazing.

I'd love to go on vacation too. But even if I had the money I wouldn't have anyone to come with me.

Thanks for the hugs but shopping excesses really don't help my mood at the moment.Awwww. But there are other lovely things that money can buy for single people :> surely? Gadgets, theatres, museum passes, books, spa, skin care treatments, scooter, etc. etc.
Buuuuuuuuuut hugs for you, from all the way down in Australia, if you wants any <3
I'm going on a trip to Japan next month Very excited. This time I have plans to hire a car and drive to one of the volcanic mountain in Hokkaido! I just hope I can navigate well enough, since all the signs will be in Japanese and my Japanese is kind of shaky. Haha. Cant wait, though :>
I think I can get boo-ed at plenty without going specifically to England but it would be nice (going to England not the boo-ing part).Boo!
Well, you could always go to England. We have the world's best GAFfers.

Have you considered visiting Pompeii too? I don't know how much time you are planning to spend in Rome, but Pompeii is only about 150 miles south of it and really quite an interesting and memorable place (if you are into that sort of thing that is). Just one of those places that is cool to visit once in your lifetime imho. (But then again, so many places are ). Either way, wish you a great trip! Rome is beautiful!I'm going to Paris and Rome in September. Soooooooooon ;_;
I haven't been to NYC or New Orleans but they're places in the US I'd like to see someday! Have fun
Bumpy bump bump.
How is everyone?

Edit: Now that i think of it, i would love to have a nice long and lazy beach vacation right about now. Just nothing but sun, sand, water and cold drinks
YesNOnoNOYes, i was wondering, is your nickname from a movie scene? Monty Python or something? I seem to recall a specific scene but i can't for the life of me remember what movie it's from
Ah i see, cool! It was driving me crazy, so i actually went and found it. It wasn't Monty Python after all, but this (slightly NSFW) scene from History of the world part 1 instead. Looking at it now, i´m not sure why i made the connection, it's been ages since i saw the movie. Aw well, now that i found it i can rest easy again. /random babble .soepje, originally, it was just a copy and paste from an online questionnaire i was taking, and i just got stuck with it. i started using it at some other forum, i think, and then one day it got blown over out of proportion when there was a discussion about consensual sex.
trigger warning for rape discussion under spoilerly:( i was in the position that if a woman says no at any moment in the sex, things should have stopped, but there were groce people that says the final YES indicate that things are okayed at the end )
anyway, looks like i've properly adopted it for good now since most of my online friends call me ynnny... hehe :>
and whoa, i need to find out if theres a monty python that related to my nick now lol
what does your nick mean / come from?
Sherlock fandom is going through the first stage of insanity at a two year wait, and it's only going to get worse.
I think I've formed too deep a bond with the fish we're babysitting. I seem to belive they when they come to me and mouth stuff they're saying hello, not just asking for food. I've also started talking to them a lot. :-S
Haha, that's sweet What kind of fish are you babysitting?
Does the one with bulging eyes look like this:It's really bad I'm not sure. I think one is a white goldfish. The other has bulging eyes. The white one is Whitey and she's very forward. The black one is Stoby and he's a bit of a sad sack.
?

A black moor goldfish.It's not a very flattering photo(!) but yes, pretty much. What kind is it?
Anyone else watching the World Cup?
I ammmmmm
It's great how all of these European teams are falling apart >;3
Hey ladies, this may sound like a weird question, but I've been trying to lose 10lbs I gained the last 6 months due to a unexpected tragedy and have been looking at some different classes. I've gone to the gym, but I often get bored quickly, and find myself loving fun forms of exercise like dancing (I love clubbing!). Have any of ya'll taken any dance based exercise classes? I was considering pole dancing classes as the prices weren't too insane ($100/mo per year), but may go into another form of dance. Just wondering if any of ya'll have any experiences you could share?
Oooh I didnt think about that. Do you do indoor or actually go out to cliffs and stuff?Not a girl, but what about rock climbing? I started doing that and its a very good cardio and muscle work out. Lot of fun too. Hits the back, shoulders, and core especially, but wont really bulk you up since its all body weight.
