Bent in awe..
Yes, pun is intended..
Every time, which isn't very often, I hear the word scoliosis, it always has me thinking of Achmed the Dead Terrorist - which, in turn, has me LMFAO.
"Well, I went the doctor. ... The idiot goes 'Eyy, let's take an X-ray.' I said 'You idiot! How about a fricking Polaroid?!"
"Help! I'm twisted and I can't get up!"
However, scoliosis in itself isn't really that much of a laughing matter - it's a medical condition in which a person's spine is curved from side to side. [..though you can't blame Jeff Dunham for using it in his Achmed-sketches; after all, Achmed is a skeleton..]
And hence, it is also part of what makes this guy amazing:
Brain Gaynor - So You Think You Can Dance, Season 7 audition
Interestingly, when the show aired on TV in my country, the song playing during the dance was an instrumental song. And it wasn't even the instrumental version of Fireflies, which is obviously -watching this video- the song he is really dancing to.. Why the change?
Here are some more YouTube videos featuring Brian:
So You Think You Can Dance, Season 3 audition awesomeness

On hiatus..
Also, I've been in more of a twitter mood, though only slightly so. You are more than welcome to visit me @ twitter.com/zellzynt, it's usually updated more frequently than this blog. However, I rarely write anything profound. :P Just so you know.. Which probably means it doesn't, in that sense, differ much from my blogging.
I only have one day left of my vacation, tomorrow, and these past two weeks have flied by. I've mostly been reading, hence the "lost in a different world", and.. Hmm, that's pretty much it I guess. Got some studying done this week, but not nearly as much as I should've, and I also went to the mall to, for the first time in a long time, shop for something other than groceries. My brother and his wife are expecting their second child and she is due any day now, and I'm not sure that I'll be able to meet the baby until sometime in September, so I decided I wanted to give them some baby gifts now, since we were all going to be visiting my parents. I bought some baby clothes, found the cutest little tiny [<-- pleonasm!] knitted cardigan with pockets, and a pyjamas for the big-sister-to-be.

Friday was Midsummer's Eve here in Sweden, one of our most celebrated holidays. I met up with my brother's family at my parent's house in my old home town. We had some traditional Swedish food [matie, sour cream, chives, early potatoes, meatballs etc], went to a traditional day-time celebration [with folk dancing and a maypole] and then went back home for a relaxed evening with more food [barbaque this time - and strawberry cake] and crappy TV programs.
My brother tried to explain the difference between binary, decimal and hexidecimal - or more precisly, how come the hexidecimal A equals a decimal ten.. Once we'd gotten through all the "base 2", "base 10" and "base 16" crap [I shouldn't be calling it crap, I find it really interesting - it's just that it's so logical, it becomes illogical, and things like that always have me confused], I think I finally got it.. I'm telling you, my brother is crazy smart when it comes to computer science. Thankfully for me, he's like a walking encyclopedia. :)
I left my parent's house after lunch yesterday, the drive home being a story quite of its own, and was back in the comfort of my livingroom in no time. I watched some TV and had some food, but then I was right back to where I've been spending most of my time lately
- inside other people's imagination.

Yes, I might as well admit to it - I'm somewhat of a
Twilighter
"Fans of the series who are

It's all about the books, not so much about the movies..
If you haven't read the books, the outtakes, extras and the Midnight Sun draft etc,
you're in no position to pass judgement on me or question my sanity.
You are, however, more than welcome to question
other things, trust me when I say I do.
Or, perhaps I should say,
I dare you to.
And, enough with the sparkle/glitter/whatever already!
Find something else to whine about..

And, of course, that being said - one of the guys working the night shift just called me, asking how to change something..
Anyhoo, this became a rather long post, it being a "hiatus" one. I think it's time I get back to my main occupation - having new insight in the story, I have Dreamcatcher to partially re-read..
TTFN
Tonight's plans..
2. Get properly beered up
Disturbed - Stricken [Ten Thousand Fists (2005)]
Sunday last..
Been saying more than once this week that I'd write about Sunday, but I still haven't.. And now it doesn't feel very current anymore, can't really remember what I wanted to tell you about anyway. Except I washed, cleaned and emptied my car [time for some vehicle service], almost got in an auto accident [not my fault, some tosser had forgotten to turn off the indicator and did not turn when I thought he would..] and finally bought flowers for my balcony!
Before
[you can't really see all the squashed bugs]
and After
This is the miserable state
my balcony
is currently in.
The brand new flowers
that will bring some colour to my
kitchen window view.
Smells delicious..
Wish I could convey the wonderful scent in my kitchen right now.
I've baked[!] cupcakes.
[selbstverständlich free from gluten and lactose]
Not as gigantic as the ones you can buy
at a bakery,
but they smell just as good.
Getting things done..
Anyhow, now I'm finally up and running and today things are getting done! Wether I want them to or not.. Which sounds stupid, of course I want them done. Wether I feel like it or not is probably more correct.
So, now I'm loading the dishwasher, then it's off to the supermarket - finally going to recycle the [what seems like millions of] soda cans and mineral water/soda bottles occupying my hall, and then I have to cram for my tests on Sunday.
Don't really now what kind of music will be accompanying me today, but thus far, I'm in a 70's kind of mood.
The Ramones - Blitzkrieg Bop [Ramones (1976)]
Too tired..
..and that's pretty much all I can think of to say right now..
Hope you're having a great day!
What the..?!
Other than that, nothing much is happening today. Still haven't posted anything about Sunday, which I said early yesterday morning that I'd do later in the day, so I'll try to get around to that. Not that anything exceptional happened, but I do have some pictures to share.
Just got off the phone with a co-worker. I already miss my workmates a bit, after only two days of vacation, so I think I'll have to pay them a visit. Maybe I'll even bake them something..
PS..
I know..
I'm multitasking this with an online chat Q&A (Lit class) and I'm laughing so hard right now.. The sad thing is, I can't even begin to explain why..
Our poor professor must be utterly bored by now - I know I am.. Question I'd like to ask: If you can't read, then why the hell are you taking a literature class..?!

Hahahahahahahaha..! Hi 5
Serious[ly]..
Thinking about something to write about [not that there is a lack of topics and little things].. Don't want this to become a "YouTube"-blog and/or an all too non-serious blog [saving that for my in-the-middle-of-the-night blogging] with no real substance, nor do I want it to become a place to "bitch-n-moan".. Not that I really have anything to complain about at the moment..
In the meantime, I'm going to make something to eat..
New name, new page, same style, different language..
Nej, det har kommer inte att ga - sitter vid en netbook med engelskt tangentbord = utan de ytterst viktiga svenska bokstaverna a, a och o :P
..so I'm just going to write this in English instead, to save myself the hassle of copying every å, ä and ö or some other tiresome process.. Might as well blog entirely in English, probably suits me better.
In my head I'm singing..
..whilst watching..
Anyhoo, where was I..? Right, I completely lost what little inspiration I had and that's why I haven't written in a while. Don't really know what to write now either, but at least I've gotten some inspiration back - in the form of a new co-worker. Who would've thought?! :) Love it when random (or maybe not) things like that happen, too bad he's just here for the summer.. But he'll probably get tired of my talking way before the end of July, so perhaps I should say Lucky him! *joking*
He's made me remember something I realised a long time ago, but for some reason keep forgetting - I'm hard to please when it comes to real company. I can consort with almost any type of person, and I like diversity in my acquaintances, but the reason I spend so much time on my own ~ ..I need to get out more.. ~ is not that I'm a boring person who doesn't have friends or people to hang out with. Mainly, it's that I rarely come across people I truly feel a connection with, be it on a deeper level or/and a more trivial, who share some of my thoughts (or think somewhat alike), views, moral standards and interests. People who make me use the brain I've actually been given and who make me see the world in different colours. Who broaden my mind, instead of narrowing it. Those are the kind of people I want to spend my time with. *late night waffle*
Then there is also the fact that I'm quite garrulous, which can be wearisome.. And that most of my peers, having spouses and children, something I have yet to acquire.. OT: I could definitely use a little love in my life.. BOT: ..are busy with their own lives in a whole other way than I am with mine.
