koge: where's my part? D:

Merry Christmas, guys! I know I’m late but I was too busy with gaming to actually get my ass up and write this when it was more appropriate :D Yes you read that correctly, I spent most of Christmas in front of a console beating up stuff. I approve heavily – I don’t quite care if baby Jesus does, but then again, I never did. When it wasn’t at home, I was at work. Consequently, I didn’t spend a single day with my family. It just wasn’t possible and that’s okay, I mean, can’t be changed. As a result however, it might as well have been Easter for all I care. No Christmas-y feelings whatsoever here : / Oh well. I did bake cookies, at least.

Also: presents! ExpandLet me show off what I got :D )

Erlkönig

I don't know if I've mentioned it before, but because of both my injured arm and ... well, the other stuff that happened in November, I decided to postpone Nano. Which means that I'm writing now. Or should be at least? It's not going as well as I hoped it would but what else is new :D"

Hence: PROCRASTINATION SKETCH-TIME! YAY! Click to enlarge. And don't you dare laugh at my attempt at drawing a goddamn horse www





It's probably my favorite work by Goethe, not counting Faust. Don't ask me where this came from because I wouldn't know how to reply. I'm just as clueless www

Oh! Today I was visited by two old friends ♥ I can't believe how much fun I had in only a couple of hours. It's really weird. I've made good friends here in Hannover but that's nothing compared to the people I've been with for years. Next week during my break from work I'll most likely visit with them again as well as with another old friend. wktk D: GUYS I'VE MISSED YOU SO MUCH ♥ SFJ FOR LIFE! :D

I wish HP world was real - if only so I could easily perform a warming spell on my tea

Language is love. Finally realized this. I mean, I knew it before and I knew that I held an unhealthy amount of appreciation for it, but for a moment, I seemed to have forgotten the extent of it. A couple of days ago, a non-native friend of mine asked for help with her German presentation. Of course I helped her out, and when I left her apartment three hours later, I was smiling so madly that it almost scared me. I had so much fun discussing language and mistakes and cultural aspects in language and what-not. Unsurprisingly, this really helped me finally let go of my little dream of ever studying medicine. I still think it’s highly interesting and I wish I’d gotten the chance, but while medicine is of interest to me, it’s not my passion. That’s language.

でででーででーででーボスとデート ♥

Tadaima! I don't want to bore you with the details, but it was exhausting and expensive.

Truth be told, I've really hit the "mourning nau." phase of this mess. Now that everything is starting to settle down and I get a bit of time to myself, I'm really starting to remember all of his good sides and certain events where I felt very happy and all "Ah. I'm his daughter after all wwww". I can't say that I miss him already or anything because as I said, we haven't been in contact recently so nothing will really change, but... Before, I think that there was always this backdoor kinda thing in my mind. I chose not to be in contact with him. Now I couldn't do it, even if I wanted to. That is finally hitting home, as well as a couple of other things. Like, I'm starting to feel regret for not being more understanding of some stuff and I mean. Our last conversation was a huge argument about money. Or maybe it was about money as a front and about other things when you looked deeper into it. Actually, I don't care - it was an argument and we both left angry and haven't seen each other since. Tbh I can't even remember it very well anymore. My last clear memory is of him standing in my tiny kitchen in Bremen, asking me if he could look into my fridge (which I thought was weird) and then laughing over the lack of choices. That was what started the argument at least, considering that my "lack of choices" resulted from his lack of child support OTZ Oh well. It's in the past.

Because I can't very well sit around doing nothing, as much as I wish I could, I've been keeping up with 2525 and ofc Skyrim a lot (which is awesome awesome awesome). More flaily posts later. Honestly, fandom is a great distraction and I think it's actually good that I'm going to work already again, even though it was hell today with how I was feeling. It can't possibly be healthy to mourn so much. He's gone, that's sad and tragic and really stupid but I need to accept it and move on with my life.

(no subject)

Today my father died.

He shot himself while his gf was out shopping. Nobody quite understands why yet, but I have some rather vague guesses which I don't really feel like sharing tbh.

Personally, idk how I feel about this, either. I'm rather shocked and I'm a little sad, too (nobody should die) but... probably not as sad as I should be, considering that well. He died. I haven't been in contact with him for years and that was both his and my choice. He has never been supportive, never helped me in much of anything and we've never had a ~deep bond~ of any kind, but I suppose that's the case for many. I don't know if I should feel bad for being so annoyed at having to take care of his funeral. It's really bothersome considering that he still had a German ID but lived and died in Spain. I'm his last living relative who is under the age of 80, which means that I'm responsible for a lot of things now. To be honest, I am ... really annoyed at this because it means I'll have to pay a lot of money for things whereas he made sure that he would never have to give me any money whatsoever.

You shouldn't talk bad about the dead I guess, but I'm honestly not trying to badmouth him. He lived his life the way the thought it should be lived and I respect that. I don't agree with his ways but hey. Nobody ever said that I should. He didn't, either. But in the same way that I didn't support his choices, he didn't support mine either and I was his daughter when it was convenient. I was good for bragging with ("She's so smart! Look at her!") but only as long as I took care of myself and didn't ask him for anything.

Ah, idk. I'm still confused and shocked. Maybe I'll be able to be really sad later.

OKAERI, KUWAGATA-P. WHAT IS HAPPENING OMG. Tbh I was never that much of a fan but his new song blew me away. Interviewer is good and the lyrics are good and the PV is good and Kuwagata-P should feel good, too, because he just made me love a song by my least favorite ~famous~ Vocaloid (sorry, Luka. :/ I still love you).

インタビュア by クワガタP feat. 巡音ルカ


I'm aware that this wasn't the only notable song that was uploaded last week but I need to eat something before I'm off to work and typing coherently with one hand is getting taxing enough www Later!

procrastinaaaaation

I should be writing. I'm barely at 1.8k trololololol D: Instead of writing I spent my day playing Minecraft (while listening to the Utapri discography of all things, oh god. Sho-chan's songs are so atsuiwww) and reading Flowers in the attic because my shiny Android has a shiny Kindle app and I could finally buy the eBook without spending huge amounts of money on the paperback. 幸せwww

Now I've reached the point where I hunted down a retired, super old slash achieve of Harry Potter stories of all things, wtf. AND IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL. I READ THIS SHIT AS I WAS GROWING UP. DOKIDOKIIIIIIIIIIIII D: My heart is seriously bursting with happiness. These overflowing feelings- ... no wait, bad direct translation from Japanese is bad. Eh. What I mean is, this stuff is so old-school and natsui and I feel like a teenager again. It's not that it's particularly good literature (quite the opposite, really) but it doesn't have to be good, that's totally not the point.

Ah, idk where I'm getting at ヽ( ´¬`)ノ ワ〜イ

Also, I feel sick to my stomach. Despite popular belief, gummy bears are not an ideal diet. Who would have guessed?!

contact lenses ktkr

They arrived :D Tbh since my eyes are somewhat dark for me being well, German, I always have a lot of trouble with finding good cosplay contact lenses. It wouldn't be so bad if I hadn't naturally awful sight, so I need lenses with my prescribed dioptre... There's suffering for cosplay and there's running around near-blind. I've made it a habit to always order a pair of the lenses I've set my eyes on way before the convention I want to wear the cosplay at. Like that, I can at least test the lenses and check if they're the right color - then preorder another pair of the same ones. It's probably a bit of a waste, but it amuses my coworkers who already play a "what color will it be this month" game www

人生=神ゲーだけご無理げー

So, after almost two years of abstinence I have returned to the world of online blogging. Rejoice! It feels good to be back. I never knew that I was that much of an attention whore - I actually really missed it.

This is a personal blog. It's neither intended as summary of whatever's happening in the fandoms I'm in, nor is it intended to be a guide to cosplaying or whatever. You might still find elements of both, but that's because I like talking about the things I love. And I flail. A lot.

So, without further ado, this will be my next huge project. I have exactly 142 days left.



Yeah. I know. OTZ

I'll probably post about this again either later tonight or tomorrow, depending on how tired I am after having dinner. The plan is to start figuring out how to deal with the annoying transparent/pink shoulder protectors... Let's see how well that goes.
