I had a very productive day yesterday. I managed to do some reading for my thesis, some other school work, went shopping somewhere else than just across a street which means loads of fresh vegetable and fruit. I watched another episode of My girl (thanks to [livejournal.com profile] crystallekil for keeping me company ♥) and saw for myself that Aiba has joined the long line of Japanese pathetic heroes with his own very special bench scene. It is only appropriate I talk about that twice today. I speed watched Orthros no Inu too. I wouldn´t tolerate watching it properly. There were times where I just didn´t get the logic at all, when some things were absurd and totally not fitting (and I thought I got used to Jdoramas ) and so I stayed mostly because Ryo does emo and internal struggle so fucking well. I wanted to complain about some stuff in that series but the only thing that I still need to get out is the fact that Nagisa wore like one and only one shoes through the entire thing, so you know while chasing and fighting the bad guys and all. They were these shiny platforms, so not exactly high heels but still her heel was in the air and I personally thing platform shoes are even worse than high heels because they give you fake impression of stability, then the foot twist very easily. Other thing I want to remark is that Yaotome Hikaru was totally hot there and I am now officially remembering more than two names of HSJ kids. Also the promotion for this was totally dubious in my opinion but I´ll say no more because I don´t want to spoil someone. What should I watch next? Osen is one option, any other suggestion?

So again, I had a very productive and long day yesterday. Longer than usually as I was allowed to turn my clock back an hour in time at 3 am. I was feeling a little unwell going to bed so I did some fast damage control and hoped I would be ok when I woke up. When I woke up 4 hours later with terrible sore throat and stuffed nose I knew I was doomed. Oh well I didn´t do much today and therefore fell behind again. I can only hope that doing intensive treatment today helped and I´ll go to work tomorrow. Finally!

I have two memes, I was given a letter by [livejournal.com profile] crystallekil and stole the other from her journal as well, so enjoy.

A LETTER MEME: Comment and I'll give you a letter; then you have to list ten things you LOVE that begin with that letter. Afterwards, post this in your journal and give out letters of your own.

I thought I´ll need an inspiration while doing this but I ended up thinking of about 15-20 words starting with D and so I actually did some choosing. Other than no. 1, there is not really a ranking.

Dad – I am not going to lie, he popped into my mind the moment I saw the letter. I hope you do not consider this cheating, I mean really, if I called him father then he wouldn´t be no. 1,now would he? Coincidently his name is Daniel. This is faith I tell you. No really, I am not sure if I am a daddy´s girl, but I love my dad. He isn´t as perfect in my eyes as he used to be, we argue, he drives me crazy. But he still is an awesome person, my role model in many ways. I respect him, I love him, admire him, he is my parent but also a friend and I love going places with him. It is fun when it is just the two of us, don´t ask me why. For first 16 years of my life, he didn´t have a son and I did cover some fields in a way. I still go to see football/soccer matches with him if the time, weather and game are right. Also he is a great shopping buddy! Ok, I´ll stop loving on my dad now, so I don´t scare you. Just know that he is a good father and deserves the top of this D chart.

Dreams and daydreaming - and dreams in all meanings of the word. I do not remember my own dreams but it is interesting to listen about those other people have. I daydream all the time though, so I compensate the lack of my night adventures. And then we have THE dreams, all of us do. And I love those, I love to help some of them come true, and I encourage people having them and I keep trying to have some, the big ones, the small one, they keep us going, we strive because of them, we grow. Dreams are why we live. So let´s dream on!

Daniel – as in my brother this time. Yes the one my dad didn´t have for first 16 years of my life. He is seven now, he is butt headed, very much a boy – something that makes it hard for me to deal with him, he is cute, has loads of will and brains and he always forgives me eventually. He is a big reason for me wanting to keep on coming back home. I don´t want to be a distant aunt. And every time he hugs me and kisses me I melt for him. I should enjoy it while it lasts, I bet he will stop showing his affection when in puberty or even sooner.

Dorks – this refers mostly to the imaginary characters, I love those loveable clumsy, socially impaired, totally oblivious heroes. In books, in movies, in whatever form of fiction. And even in real life as long as they are good natured dorks I am most likely drawn to these people. I am not sure if I make sense here, but this is not me desperately searching for words starting with D. Not yet, I seriously mean this.

Driving – I really became fond of driving over the time, other than being very useful, it can also be very relaxing, and the feeling of being on the road and deciding your path is bliss. Many times I realized I cleared my head while going somewhere. You have to concentrate on the road and while listening to the radio (spoken or just songs) is fun, conversing lightly is fun, the heavy thoughts and unsettling doubts about the future do not get to me while I am sitting behind the steering wheel.

Dance – I don´t go dancing much anymore, I wonder if I ever did go much, but I like to move with music. I like dancing in the club, I like dancing during the balls and other formal affairs when you get to do more than just groove, I also like to watch people dancing in competition or exhibitions, and when there is a good song playing I have no problem to just dance while, I don´t know, washing the dishes, ironing the shirt, … you get my point. Also my brother apparently likes to dance as well and he is so freaking adorable when he starts to. I love it the most when it happens in the car while we go somewhere, the way he just pushes his head to the front and back and flails with his hands is too adorable. As you can see I am talking about dance in a very wide sense of the word.

Decisions, decision making, decisive people – even though this might look odd, those words – all connected has been circling my mind from the moment I started making this list, so I am putting it in. To be frank making decisions is not easy. That is why I like decisive people and I consider myself as one. With that comes the responsibility for those decisions you make. I might not look like it on internet but in real life, when it comes down to business I make a decision, I don´t try to get out of it, I don´t hesitate too much, though I consider and I take responsibility. And besides I will be working in a decision making “business” because really no matter if you are a judge, attorney, prosecutor, company lawyer, whatever, you just deal with decisions all the time. Decisions make the list of things I like, they are a beginning, an end, limit, boundary, definition but also a point of discussion. They are a challenge.

D(o)ramas – I watched my share of US production in my times and I still do time to time but I am mainly aiming for Japanese series here. It took time for me to get used to them, to the manga actions acted out, to the never ending “gambare” mood, to the twisted logic, sometimes open ending, pathetic Japanese heroes (lying on a bench, one leg dangling down, the other leg bend, sometimes one arm flung over their eyes). But no matter how much I mock them, I love to watch them. They come particularly handy during exam periods, when I just take a break to watch an epi to distract myself. And they END eventually. That is maybe the best thing about them. Ok I am lying, the pathetic heroes are hot and girls are cute, that is the best thing about them XD

Dictionaries – you got to love them when you have your nose stuck in a text in a language (or two) that is not your native one all the time. I like e-dictionaries, thesaurus, but sometimes the solid huge book is the best. They are helpful, sometimes serve as inspiration and a dictionary is a book you never finish reading.

Duvet – I like huge, thick heavy covers to sleep under. When summer comes and we change for lighter covers I can´t get used to it and keep stirring, keep missing the heat, the weight. In dorms we have these warm but very very thin covers that can´t even be called duvet, so I end up adding my own extra blanket just to feel enough weight around me. I sleep with the windows open but I need my heavy, huge, traditional duvet and when I come to an inn, to a hotel, friends place where I am staying a night and they have duvet they earn loads of bonus point. Right now I would kill for a duvet!

And now: Ask me for my Top 5 anything, whether it's Top 5 Slovak Actors (are there that many?) or Top 5 Things That I don´t like about being a law student. Anything goes, positive, negative, I will answer in comments!

Santa Johnny twittered last night. Given that I follow two people on Twitter (I still don´t know why I made an account) it is a big thing when Santa Johnny twitters. It reminded me that I should maybe start writing that fic. Up until now I only have ideas for it. I have had them ever since I read what my recipient wants but I should start moving. It is only ironical that the deadline for the intro for my thesis is on the same day. I bet I´ll have the fic written much sooner than the intro.

Off to make some more tea!
