Nothing cheers me up more than a Hayao Miyazaki-movie! Last seen: Ponyo. About a little fish who wants to be a human :)



And you know what's even cuter than that? The theme song ;)

Bye Nitta!

You went from this...



... to this:



And I loved you all the way!! (Make sure to say hi to Bibi for us in rat-heaven!)

Last seen: Grey's Anatomy

It's one of my all-time favorite guilty pleasures: watching Grey's Anatomy!! I've spent the past few months rewatching (!) all six seasons (!!). And you know what the saddest part is? I like this show so much, I could just go back to season one and start all over again...



Seriously?! Seriously.

Keep Calm and Carry On

The past few weeks I’ve felt happy, sad, annoyed, content, nervous, scared, tired, playful, on edge, insecure, weak, strong, invincible and pissed off.

Yes. It was quite a month :)

Now, for those who do not know me: I’m not a very calm person at the best of times. Hell, I’m still a bit surprised I managed to survive myself these past few weeks!

My secret? I finished my Clear Blue Scarf! :)



Nothing like a bit of knitting to bring some Zen to a busy day :)



Now that I'm done, I should really find a new project. Quickly :)

A Year and a Day of Crafting :)

No, I’ve not been busy celebrating new found fortune I’m afraid. The Universe pointed me in the direction of option number 2: working my ass off! :)

I was in fact so busy, I almost forgot this week is my One Year Of Crafting-anniversary!

One year ago this week, I decided I wanted to learn something new. I wanted to learn how to knit!! Me & knitting was not the best combination however, but it did lead me to discovering crochet.

And twelve months later...



... I'm still crafting! :)

Hello Earthlings!

Excuse my lack of posting - I've been busy... How busy you ask? Well, let's just say: when you try to unlock your home door with your job’s entry pass instead of your keys, you need a vacation…

Unfortunately for me, I don’t have time for a vacation! I’ve been so busy with work and taking care of sick pets I’ve hardly had time for anything else. And since things aren’t going to slow down any time soon, I might as well accept it: there's just not enough time to have it all!

There is however time for winning LOADS OF MONEY!!! :D Today is the 10th of October of 2010 - the 10th day of the 10th month of the 10th year - and the national lottery assures me it's my lucky day!

Now, before you’ll go all sceptical on me, let’s skip to the fun stuff: here’s my Ten Things I’ll Do With The Millions I’ll Win On The 10th of October 2010-list!! :D

1. I will dance in the street
2. I will buy pretty dresses and wear them all the time!
3. I will buy a cottage for my parents
4. I will drink Kiki-cappuccino at the Ghibli Museum in Japan
5. I will tweet about it on my new iPhone
6. I will fill my whole house with flowers!
7. I will open a craft-shop
8. I will design my own house
9. I will buy an R2-D2 trashcan and a 101 other things from ThinkGeek.com!

And last but not least...

10. I will have TIME to do it all. Hell, I'll even have time for that vacation :)



I'll leave you with these beautiful flowers! If the lack of posting continues the upcoming days, I'll either be working my ass off or celebrating new found fortune :)

Let's hope for my sake it will be the latter ;)

Filming in Space

How cool is this?!?!

Allow me to answer that myself.

It's freakin' COOLER THAN COOL.

:)

Still knitting! :)
