Mr. T and a REALLY cool shield

Have anyone ever noticed that Mr. T looks like a Buffy-vampire with it's teeth out?

We played D&D yesterday, and Frain got new attacks and abilities. We got pre-made characters, so yesterday me and V got to pick some new attacks that we liked better. It's cool to be a tank, but it always means that I have to stand right next to the monsters to be able to attack, so I needed some ranged attack, which I got. Which was cool^^,
We went on a quest behind or maybe in an enchanted cabin. We killed some icky desert thingies, and two dragons. And we leveled up the team, so we are all lvl 2 now, people.^^.

The DM got us some cool new gear (which we hoarded for ourselves of course, finder's-winner, right?XP)
So I got a REALLY cool shield. Which was named a REALLY cool shield for quite some time, until the DM could figure out what it was, and it was really cool. It makes me able to move full-speed over water, and not sink or drown,^^,
I love my really cool shield<3<3

Septimus Heap

I am currently reading the Septimus Heap series. And I love Love LOVE it.
It's is masterly written and it has an absolutely wonderful use of Capital letters, marking the Important things. It also uses old fashion ways of writing some of the more important words to the story. Like Darknesse, and Magyk.
This is children's fantasy at it's best. I would say it's suitable for children all down the age of 7, and if you are a parent you should definitely read it out loud for your child, because if you liked the Harry Potter books, you will love this one.
It's for children, young adults and proper adults alike.

Fake your beauty

For some reason society want girls to look natural, but not be natural.
We should dye or bleach our hair. Dye our eyebrows and eyelashes. Curl and straighten. Wearing self-tan and bronzer is for some reason nicer than actually being tan. Make up is very important, but you need to look as if you aren't actually wearing any.
Breast implants and botox and lipo-suction are made to look as natural as possible. These days flattening out your wrinkles is frowned upon, because the thing to do is inject fat under your skin to make it look plumper, smoother and, you guessed it, more natural.
In this day and age anorexia and bulimia are looked upon as something awful, but we plaster larger-than-life posters of H&M models, whose thighs don't actually meet when they stand straight on every relatively flat surface. Mothers are hated on, because it is their need to feel beautiful that are befouling the minds of their daughters, making them think they aren't good enough. I say people wrong, it's not the mothers, it's the society. It's media hating on the girl with a half a kilo extra, the girl with bags under her eyes, the girl with large pores, or bumps or blemishes, with limp hair, or hair with the wrong colour or length, or texture or shape.
Everyone always hates on the skinny girls in the commercials. But what about the hair fixer-upper commercials? Or skin-miracle commercials? Or the make-your-self-beautiful commercials, who proclaims that their product contains 35% more beauty with every stroke? Or the shows about how to make yourself look 10 years younger? Have anyone but me noticed that the way to look 10 years younger takes at least 2 operations and brand new porcelain teeth?
Because we will never be good enough the way we are. We will always weigh 3 pounds too much and have the wrong hair and wrong skin tone and wrong face. So lay down on the table dahling, let me nip and tuck you. Let me fix your hair and your body and your face. And when you are done there will always be one more thing.
Ladies. Get ready. Let's fake our beauty!

I think I got purdyful today

So someone decided that I had a hairy face apparently. And that my facial-hair had the wrong colour. So I got my eyebrows waxed and coloured, and my eyelashes coloured.
And then I apparently got a reaction to the eyelash colour, so my eyes got all burny, and they're still kind of sore, but my eyelashes got some colour.
And yesterday I lightened my hair.
So I think I am kinda of pretty now. Maybe?

Beer and books

I have less than awful beer. I really really hate beer. It's awful, it tastes like rancid piss to be quite frank.
But my dad presented me with lemon cut Tuborg. And thou it still tastes like beer, but not quite as rancid as normal beerXP

Also I raided Oslo's biggest library. I came out with about 20-25 books.
The perfect cure for the means reds and/or the blues, or almost any other unpleasant colour, is taking home unread books. And if I borrow them instead of buying them I don't get more of whatever colour is bothering me because I have spent money I need for other things.
And I have wanted to visit Deichmanske for almost 3 years, maybe more. So we went there, and I got snickered at because I had promised to only borrow five and then we would go back afterwards, but I couldn't help myselfXP I had to carry all the books around for the rest of the dayXP

Hmmmmm.... My beer has started to turn rancid on me again. I am gonna put more lime in it now. Night night.
