Input

Listening: Kerrang Radio, HP4 (the one with the goblet, Rita Skeeter and Cedric Diggory)

Reading: Joseph Campbell: The Masks of God: Primitive mythology - brilliant, i mean... 3 chapters on, not a single word about actual mythologies, only explaining the background, and although i do not understand it fully (wouldn't even in hungarian, i reckon) it is absolutly interesting and and... wow. I'm so glad i signed in the library again, this is my third pack of books and a second one - the first was the one about britain's religions - with seriously good facts, and the "widening of horizon" i missed in the last few years. Of course it can turn awful later (only three chapters down), but it was worth already. I love it when i read a book and instantly know that i learned something or some already known pieces fell into their places.


Watching: i'm afraid i will watch the HP movies again. Have Bridget Jones now too, but it's too... erm, close to home? Single girl drinking... oops :D I'm not that bad though as Bridget. I drink much less :D :D


Thinking: being bilingual(ish) can be tireing. Sometimes the words only come in just one language, and it's a real pain to translate them. The lines i type out effortlessy in one of them just doesn't sound good, clatter, break on the other... I'm already losing the nuances of hungarian, composite words start to sound strange, some expressions i cant find a true match for - and on the other hand, my english grammar is faulty, my vocabulary still not wide enough, and the pronounciation- well, thats simply troll. Yesterday i told one of my british collegues that i once worked at McDonalds - and he heard "mental ward" instead. Okey, they are not that far from each, but still...

And once i knew german too :) Danke schön :)

Behatások - Inputs

Ha már alkotásokról nem tudok írni, mert az ugye lassabban megy...

Well i can't write about crations them being much longer to do than just reading/listening/watching...

Watched: Harry Potter and the chamber of Secrets. My least favourite amongs the hp books, and probably among the movies too. Lockhart is a great character, but annoying nevertheless, as is the whole story with all the backlashes of fame and a nasty reptile going around. ok, since the sixth book i look it a bit differently too, but still. Anyways, done, watched, let's proceed to the next one :)

Listening: Guns'n'Roses: Use Your Illusion II. Oh my. Almost forgot how cool this band is, 'specially this album. Ususally i listen to more harder music ( not rock, but metal) but lately they have a depressing effect on me, so Guns' is the right for me now. Still has great gitar stuff, is rock, and is postive.
On an interesting note, a few years back, i met up a coiple of kids at a Tolkien meeting who were 5-7 years my junior. And when i heard a guns' song in the radio, and said, hey, listen! they didn't even know this band existed! Crazy. But two years later, i run into a few of them, in a middle of an In Flames concert. So i guess they aren't lost completly :)

(Will be) reading: Jane Austen: Persuasion. Bought it on saturday for 20 p, and even started to write a post from that (day) but then we went out to cinema so its unfinished. I cant decide if its alright to post something out of order/dated back... anyways, i'm looking forward for the book, coz unlike Sense ans Sensibility, i did not read or see it in any form before, i dont know anything about the book aside of who wrote it.
