Process Returned C0000005

magician brothers, black butterflies and other creatures of the night

In October ASP go on tour Unplugged! And at 09.10. they will play in Mannheim in the old fire station.
The focus of this concert series on the 'Krabat-cycle.
The top hit is it so, that chairs are set up! I've never been to a concert could sit where I * sniff *. How much luck can one not have?
I will definitely going away! Anyone with me?

I know why autumn is my favorite season:)

Home Made Electro Torchure

Harry Potter is the future.

Look at this!

Invisibility Cloak now possible

So, after the Invisibility Cloak has hit the market, they are going to invent flying broomsticks and England will be hosting the very first Quidditch world cup. YAY. I love Quidditch.

On the other hand, it is kind of sad that science can accomplish things only magic could do. Magic is so much more cooler and honestly, I don't want to know how EVERYTHING works....

Did I find new books? YES I DID :)

Possessing Rayne by Kate Cann
I loved that book. It has an amazing story and is kind of gothic. There's going to be a sequel next year and I'm looking forward to it.

Synopsis:
Rayne couldn't wait to get away from everything: her mum, her boyfriend, the estate. But the solitude of Morton's Keep isn't all she thought it would be. It's eerie and more than a little creepy. When she meets St John, Rayne forgets her worries; he's like no one she's ever met. So why is everyone warning her away from him? She knows there's something people aren't telling her. But how can she find out the secrets everyone wants to keep hidden ...and more importantly, know who to trust?

Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror by Chris Priestley
I haven't read it yet, but I definitely will! The homepage is brilliant: Tales of Terror (do you know now why I want to read it so badly?)
Synopsis:
Uncle Montague lives alone in a big house and his regular visits from his nephew give him the opportunity to relive some of the most frightening stories he knows. But as the stories unfold, a newer and more surprising narrative emerges, one that is perhaps the most frightening of all. "Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror", it transpires, are not so much works of imagination as dreadful lurking memories. Memories of an earlier time in which Uncle Montague lived a very different life to his present solitary existence.

I guess, I'm into Gothic Fiction at the moment <3

Laptop Off Brand Power Cord

Poetry Friday again!

Today, I'm going to post a not so typical poem.

Cemetry Gates by The Smiths/Morrissey

A dreaded sunny day
So I meet you at the cemetry gates
Keats and Yeats are on your side
A dreaded sunny day
So I meet you at the cemetry gates
Keats and Yeats are on your side
While Wilde is on mine

So we go inside and we gravely read the stones
All those people, all those lives
Where are they now ?
With loves, and hates
And passions just like mine
They were born
And then they lived
And then they died
It seems so unfair
I want to cry


You say : "'Ere thrice the sun done salutation to the dawn"
And you claim these words as your own
But I've read well, and I've heard them said
A hundred times (maybe less, maybe more)
If you must write prose/poems
The words you use should be your own
Don't plagiarise or take "on loan"
'Cause there's always someone, somewhere
With a big nose, who knows
And who trips you up and laughs
When you fall
Who'll trip you up and laugh
When you fall


You say : "'Ere long done do does did"
Words which could only be your own
And then produce the text
From whence was ripped
(Some dizzy whore, 1804)


A dreaded sunny day
So let's go where we're happy
And I meet you at the cemetry gates
Oh, Keats and Yeats are on your side
A dreaded sunny day
So let's go where we're wanted
And I meet you at the cemetry gates
Keats and Yeats are on your side
But you lose
'Cause weird lover Wilde is on mine


Sure !



Isn't he awesome?! (Go raibh maith Hannah!)

While exploring ebay, I found this marvellous Regency dress. Unfortunaley, too expensive for the likes of me. (400 Euro if you're interested)
