We have our own printing-office at work where you can print out anything in almost any form (posters, calendars, notebooks, photo albums, postcards, etc.) with 50% off discount for the employees. This office is just a floor away from my workplace and it works really fast, everything is ready on the next day. Naturally, nowadays I am constantly ( Read more... )

I always say that I hate movies. I really do hate watching them in general, it all feels like such a waste of time spent doing nothing. It's strange, because I can waste HOURS reading books and fanfiction and never get a good night sleep before work, but somehow with movies I'm counting every minute. TV shows episodes I can take, but not 3 hours of ( Read more... )

You explore a deserted island, uncovering a tale of love, loss, grief and redemption, delivered through stunning voice-over and soundtrack and set against one of the most beautiful environments yet created in a game."

Yesterday I stumbled across Keith Baines' retelling translation and abridgement of Le Morte D'Arthur: "Malory's Le Morte D'Arthur: King Arthur and the Legends of the Round Table". And I did not like it even in the slightest. One just cannot add to the book so freely in my opinion. Of course Baines' version is much, much easier to read, than Caxton' ( Read more... )

We'd like to change a little the way our house is furnished, get rid of old stuff, then rearrange some. I was trying to draw schematics for about half an hour (I'm so not good with that!), then gave up and installed The Sims 2 game. And wow, planning has never been easier! :D

I think it's safe to admit that I totally fail at blogging. The only website I'm updating regularly is my twitter, because it has this 140 characters per entry limit and that I can do. It's kind of fun, when you think about it: something that doesn't really make sense otherwise would ( Read more... )

It's freaking "awesome" here (has been the whole summer): +30C at night and I'm kinda afraid to know what our average day temperature is. I only know that I can't stand this weather anymore, my body is refusing to function in this climate. It's like being on ( Read more... )

Okay, there are these series I like a lot, which used to be aired in my country a few years ago, but for a very short time, approximately 2 seasons. That's the only russian translation of the series. I couldn't find any english version, like the show was never aired in English speaking countries (which is really weird). And this show doesn't seem ( Read more... )

My life is crazy and full of random awesome stuff that tends to happen every now and again. But I'm the only one who thinks so. *g* Others would find my life boring as hell, I suppose. That's why I don't write here anymore. I can't for the life of me imagine what would be interesting enough to share it with you, guys. And I don't like the idea of ( Read more... )
