Mamma mia!

Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008

Yesterday we went to see Mamma mia! Of course everybody except me was late so we had to sit in the 4th row -.- But it was ok. However, the movie was just awesome!!! Usually I’m not really into musicals, but that one definitely rocked! You shouldn’t miss that out. As many pointed it out - Meryl Streep should get an Oscar for that!!! (And that’s my entirely impartial opinion as a big Meryl Streep fan ^^).

The great Euro08

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

So I’ll use the Internet and the lack of other things to do while waiting for SP3 to install and I’ll share some implessions form the Euro08. We didn’t win… if somebody didn’t catch that :( But at least we’ve got second! And that’s great! And all thanks to my fancy Lahm-jersey I bought (for fucking 90 Euros!!!!)

Before the championship started, Marina made a post on her blog about the favourite teams of most of us. None of the other teams made it as far as Germany :D Although there were some Spain fans, they were all like “uhm, I like Spain, but they play crap, so Italy/Portugal will win”. And yeah - that does not count! :) I was responsible for the prize that all those would get that guessed the winner. Luckily no-one did, so I don’t have to bother about that now :D

Generally it was a great experience, as expected. Yet it was not as great as WorldCup06 and I don’t believe that I’ll ever experience something like that ever again. We watched all Germany games in one of the local movie theatres, except the game against Poland - we watched that in a pub. And the spirit was almost like on the stadium, everybody screaming and singing Deutschland … songs? (No idea how you call that stuff ^^). The only think that sucked was the critique about players like Gomez and Lahm. Poor Gomez - everybody was like “O-M-G - I could have scorred that”, but …. like…. uhm, no? And the same about Lahm (who still has not accepted my friend request on facebook :D) - “it’s his fault that the Turks scored the second goal”… BUT HE DID SCORE THE 3RD GOAL FOR GERMANY!!! And the goal by Torres - why was Lehmann out there? How could Lahm do something, without like killing Lehmann? ^^

When I get my Internets back, I’ll try to post some photos and videos!

Cheers!

Repair Machines

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

Guess what I’m doing right now - exactly, I’m repairing a PC of a friend. Yesterday she called and said that something was wrong with her PC and that she probably had a virus. And as I expected it - it was just a pop-up saying “You have a virus, click here to buy the newest version of bla-bla-bla”. Nevertheless I decided to install an anti virus software and it found 3049203984 viruses (it’s a pretty old PC). Yet after all viruses were removed the internet didn’t work :( And now I have no idea why, but I have to fix it… At least I can use the Internet from my laptop (as I don’t have Internet at home —> changing the provider). So wish me luck, so I can fix it and I don’t have to reinstall Windows, which would take me ages on that old PC!

Yay for repairing machines!
