i haven't written a blog for quite some time now. i've been working quite a lot these last two months well maybe not as much as in a normal job because i only reached 90 % part time but it was pretty heavy work at times because i was carrying tons of books up and down stairs. well, registring books and reorganizing the trade union's library and even carrying all this books around actually was a pretty satisfying work since for once it had nothing to do with legal work. i was pretty devastated because i couldn't prolong my last internship but by now i've realized that it was some kind of destiny and made perfect sense. i guess i wouldn't have gone to london if it had been possible to stay there. for one thing i wouldn't have met jodie for another i wouldn't have drunk any guinness and if i hadn't, my arm wouldn't have hurt as much as it did and i wouldn't have decided to go and finally see a doctor. if i hadn't we would have never found out about my problems with the thyroid glands and i wouldn't be in treatment by now. if i had been allowed to stay, i couldn't have visited my grandmother in hospital as often as i did. i wouldn't have met all these great people at the trade union and one of the best things happened two weeks ago. so far i hadn't had anybody to learn with. i found out that the guy who gives legal advise to union members is going to take the exam in spring as well. when i told him that so did i, he suggested that we could do some learning together.
this is great. he seems to be pretty much of a genius, he's worked with all the legal subjects i haven't and vice versa and he seems to be a really nice guy.
this week i'm cleaning my flat (something i don't really like to do) and next week i want to start learning for my laywer's exam. to be honest, i'm a little worried about the six months ahead. i think that compared to learning for this exam, five years of university were a bloody vacation ...
but still, if i ever want to stand a chance to go back to the place were i did my first internship, i've got to take and pass the laywer's exam.
for some strange reason i haven't been too busy catching up with shows lately. here's what i've been watching though:
battlestar galactica
i'm somewhere towards the finale of season 1 and so far i think that bsg a s pretty amazing show. btw, i'm really happy that the crush for callum keith rennie has made two people starting to watch one of my favourite shows "due south". ![]()
breaking bad
another brilliant show with an incredible cast. i'm somewhere in the beginning of season 2 so far.
true blood
i don't know ... i've been a huge fan of season 1 but for some reason, i was a little disappointed with some of season 2. i absolutely hated the maryann storyline in the end. i thought i was very weak and led to some incredibly embarrassing scenes. let's hope that season 3 gets better.
supernatural
well, what can i say ... i'm so happy, supernatural is back. season 5 is amazing so far and last week's episode was among the best ever with an incredibly intelligent storyline and jensen ackles topping himself once more. sam and dean parting the episode before was heartbreaking and i'm glad, they're back together. castiel brings some nice comic relief to the show and misha collins is really great in his role. i guess, supernatural is one of the very few shows that really get better by the episode while a lot of other shows are just heading down after some time ...
... which brings me to
heroes
which is a little better at the moment but still fails to come even close to amazing season 1.
castle

i've only seen the first episode of season 2 so far (and that was great fun) so not much to say about it till now.
how i met your mother ...
is always the first of the monday shows i watch. so far it's funny as ever and i really like the barney/robin relationship development ... ![]()
fringe
i've decided to not eat anything before watching "fringe" because it seems to turn more disgusting by the episode but apart from that ... great as ever ...
there are a few new show's i've started to watch.
glee
i've been contemplating about "glee" a lot ... i guess, it's some kind of a really pointless show in a way but actually quite some fun to watch. ![]()
the forgotten
so far i quite like it, but poor christian slater ... i think he is a pretty good actor (he's proven it in quite a few movies) but he's just not what i'd call a crowdpleaser. i think he'd make a great villain or psychopath but he's just not that good when he should gain the audience's sympathies.
eastwick
i've seen the first two episodes and i've decided to stick with it for now because i couldn't miss out on a show that has paul gross in it ... ![]()
flashforward
out of the new shows this is the one i love most. it's got a most brilliant and promising storyline so far and i can't wait to have it continued!
well, i guess that's almost all for now ... i've seen "up" and "inglorious basterds" and i've read "to kill a mockingbird" and i'm reading "no. 1 ladies' detective agency" right now but maybe that's going to be stuff for another blog ...

I love SN so much! I love having it back, and I am so scared it's gonna end after this season, coz I dread not getting new eps
Castle is still good
I'm currently in the middle of the 3rd season of HIMYM.
I will check out Flashforward. Everyone seems to like/love it, and it sounds like a great consept. I have to see
UP! I love that movie! I love it so much! I have seen it twice so far, might see it again tomorrow. It is so amazing! And I'm not even that big on movies, much less animated movies, but this one.. it's just fabulous! So well done in every way! I Love it! Love it I say!
But what ever happens, you are right, it is hard to top this. Going back to just your regular haunting easily becomes lame now
