Okay, so a lot happened lately and I haven't been around much to write about it.

Let's see, first off, we finally have a real President (and by "we" I mean the world). It was about time for change to happen. I guess it just has to keep happening now, I'm very hopeful about this. :D I've said before how much I feel proud to be here to witness history. <3
I also gave my exam and got a decent 26/30. I could have done better, but I'm not complaining, I could have also done worse. LOL Now I have a little rest before I have to study more, but I'm actually busier than before. LOL
Last but not least, I bought an iPod, finally. It's purple and it's named after Gabe Saporta, of course. That man ruined my mental health, so the least I can do is showing gratitude. LOL (By the way, he's better, the surgery went well and this makes me happy. :D)

Now I'm a little late with today's work, which should be undoing the Christmas tree. LOL I know, I'm late, I'm always late. XD
I'll see you later with some music advice, I guess. I'm making a playlist right now.
JM <3

I'm back, finally. :D I can't believe I answered all the comments left behind until now.

Well, it's been a while since last time and quite a few things happened. Let's see.

- I finished the sequel, which is kind of a big accomplishment.

- I finished my exams, which is kind of a HUGE accomplishment. LOL And they went kind of well. I could have done better, but I'm not complaining. I took 23/30 in the Geography one, which is kind of crappy, but I hated it anyway and the teacher was completely crazy; the only positive note about it is that I read a book dedicated to Australia and learned a lot of interesting things about it. The English one went way better and the mark was 28/30; I spent most part of the oral test talking with the teacher's assistent about MySpace, LiveJournal, Placebo and fanfiction, he was so cute and so so nice. The Contemporary Italian Literature one was kind of a disaster and I took 21/30, but I wasn't willing to do it all over again so I didn't reject the vote. But now college is over, at least for a while. In a few days, though, I'll start studying Latin, which I know will be a pain in the ass.

- I've been listening to Arma Angelus for two days and I have to say that maybe I might begin to like them a little bit. I've never been a fan of screamo, but who knows. LOL 

- My parents are on vacation and I'm home alone until Sunday. The bad thing is that when I'm home alone I just can't stop myself I have the sudden urge to see horror movies and since I'm a pussy supposed to sleep alone in the dark house, that's not a good move. LOL

- I'm probably gonna bake cookies at 3 am one of these days. I always feel the need to bake or cook late at night when I'm awake and alone. 

- Hopefully, this week, I'll have a lot of time to write and that's good since I've almost finished the Peterick prequel to the Vampire Hunting 'Verse. Right now, it's 22,000 words long. LOL I also have three more projects to work on, so yeah, I need time to write. XD

- I really really want to watch The Dark Knight, but I'm too lazy to go at the movies alone and my friends are about to leave for vacation. *sighs* Same thing goes for Wanted. BUT I finally found the first Narnia movie and I'll watch it soon. 

- I'm basically living on coffee right now. But I haven't touched anything alcoholic for almost two months now, I'm proud of myself. Also, being a pseudo-vegetarian is going quite well, I feel so much better. I'm a new person.

- I think I'm gonna post some of my photography. It'll be f-locked though, because...because. I have my reasons. LOL 

- Also, I'm gonna make some recs post from time to time and that's because: first, I want to spread the love. Second,  I have a awful, horrible habit, I leave very few comments on what I read and that's just unfair, so yeah, I'll try to comment more and to rec fics I liked.

- Another kind of post I think you might see more often, it's picspams. I don't know why, I feel the need to picspam the entire world lately. LOL So yeah, expect picspam of all kinds, long, short, silly, hot, about bandom, about tv shows. Seriously, whatever I feel like posting.

- Now I remember why I love these lists so much. LOL 

So yeah, people, I'm back on track. LOL
JM. <3

 

Well, well...a few updates on my life. Happy? LOL

First of all, tomorrow I've got my Geography exam. I've been studying like crazy for over a month, but I'm still freaking out. The only thing that has been able to calm me down a bit is listening to the acoustic version of Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy? for like, 15 times in a row. Patrick's voice really helps me. But every time I manage to calm down, someone comes up with something like "How are you feeling? Are you nervous?" and stuff. 
Well, here's a shocker...that gets me nervous. 
So, if you wanna wish me good luck, I'll love you lots, if you ask me how I'm doing, I'll chew your head off. I know, I'm a nevrotic freak, and no, don't tell me it's normal, because that's not gonna make me feel better, okay? 

Second thing, let's talk about something that gets me less cranky and emo. LOL 
I want to announce that, after consulting my lovely wife, I decided that two very hot awesome musicians are gonna guest star in the Vampire Hunting sequel. I'm talking about Matt Bellamy from Muse and Brian Molko from Placebo. They're not gonna be seen for long, but they'll be quite significant for the plot and for the ending. I promise I'll do my best to handle them well. If I don't, Muse and Placebo fans can eat my hands. LOL

Third thing, and this is for the Italian part of my f-list, I translated and posted a couple of my stories. I'll post them here too, but for now you can find them here.

Forth thing. There's no forth thing. LOL But I like number 4. LOL Okay, I'll shut up now. 
Edit: There is a forth thing, after all. LOL
Yesterday it was the journal's...uh, "birthday"! OMG, it's been two years since I opened this Journal. Awww. *loves her LJ* 
You know, I never realized how proud I am of my LJ. I mean, it's been with me through bad and good times, and the entries are there to prove it. I thought about cancelling them, but I don't want to. It might sound silly, but they are part of my past, and it doesn't matter if they are good or bad , or if I don't feel like that anymore. I have to keep them with me, they help me a lot, and they remind me who I am. And I'm not gonna run from what I went through, I'm not that kind of girl anymore. I closed on the past, but I treasure it because it helps me grow.
So yeah, happy birthday my little LJ. *hugs the LJ*

Fifth thing...yeah, there's also a fifth thing now. LOL 
OMGOMGOMG Ashlee's pregnant! That's so crazy and so so cute and awesome and AWW. And she changed her last name into Simpson-Wentz, which I find very very cute, for some reason. I like that girl, I'm happy Pete's with her, as long as he's happy too. <3

See you soon, hopefully with good news on the exam and maybe with a new fanfic. 
JM
 

Remember the good old times, last January, when I was doing the vaccines for the journey to Africa and my wrists decided it was funny to bitch and turn my life into some kind of hell? Well, I do. 

The point it, my wrists hurts again. -_- But this time I'm not gonna let it get to me, I'll fight 'til the end. I mean, at least this time my body (and hormones) aren't screwed up by four vaccines, so yeah, I can deal with a hurting wrist. 
Besides, last time it had no fucking reason to hurt, this time at least I know what set it off. I fell while I was playing with my nephew and I braced myself with my left hand. Nothing too dramatic, but my left wrist has a tendon that kind of inflames very easily, so yeah, now it hurts like hell on earth.

It also kinda makes it hard to type. I mean, yesterday I studyed and wrote all day, and last night I couldn't move my fingers. So yeah, that's gonna be a problem, 'cause I kinda have my exams coming up in January and I really need to study. A lot. I mean, I'll probably give just two, not three 'cause Linguistics is something like 5 books to prepare, so yeah, I'm doing it in september, so I'll have all summer to prepare all the five books. So I'm giving Italian Literature (I) in January and Contemporary Italian History in January or February, still have to find out.
Oh, and also there are two English exams, both on grammar basic rules and other basic stuff. One is to find out the student's level and see if they need to follow English lessons during second semester. I kind of think I won't have to follow the lessons, so I'll do the test and I'll be done. The other exams is an actual language exam, with grammar rules, probably conversation, and more interesting stuff. And yeah, I don't have to do this immediately, but I'm kind of doing it to entertain myself. I mean, I love English, so why not?
But yeah, I'm kinda scared out of my skull for the Literature and History exams, and I need to be able to write.

Talking about other stuff. Last night I wrote chapter 14 of my bandom story. Never heard about it? Well, that's cause I never actually talked about it here. But hey, I think it's time. It's bandom, and it's Gabilliam as well as Peterick, Joncer, Ryden, Freard and a few others. It's an AU, 'cause I love AUs, as you might have noticed. It involves vampires, werewolves and hunters. Good vampires, bad vampires and very bad vampires, actually.
And there are a few bands involved. Fall Out Boy, The Academy Is..., Cobra Starship, Panic! At The Disco, My Chemical Romance and...yeah, Green Day too. LOL
What else can I say? Not much, right now. I'm pretty sure it's gonna take a while to be finished, but I hope it won't be too long. And the moment Iwrite last chapter, the first will be up. 

Talking about music...I'm falling in love with The Black Parade. Seriously, I have this awful thing about approaching bands 'cause of a bandmember I find very fuckable cute, and then I fall in love with the band and the music and the lyrics. It happened with The Academy Is... ('cause of William Beckett), Cobra Starship ('cause of Gabe Saporta), Fall Out Boy ('cause of Pete Wentz, and no, not 'cause of those pics), Panic! At The Disco ('cause of Ryan Ross. Actually, I'm still exploring their music, but I like it so far) and even with My Chemical Romance ('cause of Mikey Way).
So yeah, call me shallow if you want, but it's not like I follow them 'cause they're hot, otherwise I'd be following half the music scene. I approach them 'cause they're hot, and I follow them 'cause they're damn good.  Apparently cute boys make damn good music.
Oh, it happened with Tokio Hotel ('cause of Bill Kaulitz) too. And okay, these guys aren't at the same level as the bands listed above, but hey, one day they will be, if they make the right choices. Give them a break, they're eighteen, and as my friend Barbara often says, not everyone is a seventeen-years-old-lyrics-genius like Ryan Ross. So don't bug me, I love them.
And before all this I was saying that I'm in love with The Black Parade. I mean, I know Teenagers and I Don't Love You by heart, but Welcome To The Black Parade is maybe my favorite, and I love Gerard's amazing voice in Cancer, even if the song really makes me want to cry, already from the title (who knows me, also knows why). And then there's House of Wolves, one of the coolest songs I've heard in a while, also I keep humming both The Sharpest Lives and Famous Last Words, often with bad results, but hey, I try. So yeah, I love the whole CD and I'm so damn happy I got to see them live, it was priceless.
I'll never thank nejemenough for introducing me to the bandom world. With all the consequences. Thanks hun! *blows kiss*

Well, I think I'm done for now, considering that lunch will be ready in a few minutes, and I'm not supposed to be typing anything with my left hand. 
So yeah, I'll see you soon, folks, probably with chapter 7 of HOTM. 
JM

ps: my friend Dun is gonna hate this post, 'cause he thinks I got corrupted by bandom and cute, skinny, slightly feminine musicians, and that I forgot about my love for Supernatural and John Winchester, and Dean&Sam, and all their funny (O_ò?) adventures.  ("I lost my shoe ç__ç" is LOVE XDDDDD) But I didn't. I swear. I love them just like the first day. Hell, even more. But I'm stuck at episode 3x03, I can't manage to see the new episodes, so it's actually painful to talk about it. ç__ç
