I really owe you something...you shouldn't treat me TOO nice all the time *laugh*

Anyways. Life's kinda busy (still), but things settled down a bit, so I think I may finally be able to get some stuff done the next days, including some cookie-porn gelated stuff I already planned with =daf-shadow for a while. Yeah we really got some ideas and wanna get something started that - if every would work accordung to our imagination - could become something really amazing, in my opinion at least.

So, yeah.
I'm off to work now~

When I first heard about the Worldtour I thought „Wow, this is a really cool thing. It would be amazing to meet those guys“ and started to get excited about the whole thing. Simply because it seemed like...somethings really generous for them to do. And so I began to hope that $spyed and $Heidi would choose to come to Germany...
And they did! Yeys!

However...I totally underestimated the impact this meeting would have on me. Sounds strange, but that's how it is. And I get the feeling that many people who attended feel this way

When I arrived at the Brandenburg Gate there was already a bunch of people waiting (admittedly I was a bit late due to work) so I looked for =Andy-K and his cute girlfriend (the pink girl, as everybody said ) to join them. No minute later I already had a name tag on my jacket and $Heidi came over to say hello to everyone (we did take a foto with 3 or 4 other people then - `Lilyas postet it).



Just a bit later $spyed came to meet us as well and told us about how he wanted the official fotograph to look like (group hug ftw ) and then left again to greet someone else. Taking the picture turned out to be kinda fun and the result is stunning! I it!



After the shot we went over to Tiergarten where $spyed pondered whether he should climb that lion statue to give a speech or not (Sadly, he didn't. Would have been an awesome sight if you ask me) and then went on to some meadow where everyone stopped. $spyed talked for a bit and then told everyone to get in groups based on what kind of an artist they were (e.g. photographer, writer,...), but since I do quiet everything I didn't really know where to go *laugh* Fortunately =Lisl89 shared my thought so the two of us got together, later on joined by some more people, among them ^Grandchild and his cookies (which kinda is where that whole madness started ). Everyone easily started to chat a bit and it was really a surprise to me how well we all got along, despite the fact that we had never met before and DIDN'T talk much about dA at all. Finally the cookies lured =travisk to our group as well and he decided to join us for some time. I have to say: it is amazing to have met you, Travis. I really enjoyed talking to you!


When $Heidi walked around and randomly gave (threw) away some emoticon stressballs I had the luck to get the -one. LOVE
We took some photos with it and the cookies (and I still demand to have a category for cookie art *laugh*) and had some more fun.

Eventually the first group came back from $spyed 's introduction of the new features and I decided to join the next group since I was starting to ge... ]]> *Akai-karasu http://Akai-karasu.deviantart.com/journal/25231590/ http://Akai-karasu.deviantart.com/journal/25231590/ Wed, 10 Jun 2009 08:33:55 PDT

Ab big THANK YOU to everyone who was there, especially $spyed, $Heidi, =travisk, ~Lisl89, ^Grandchild, $spinegrinder and everyone who sat at our table in the evening at Sony Center
All of you made that day really special for me...

It all started maybe a month or six weeks from now, when I per coincidence saw a movie on TV (in the afternoon) but wasn't able to finish it, since I had promised tp go to my neighbours' with my parents. Since I thought the story really wasn't bad I started to look for it online and found out that it was a kind of adaption, from a book series called "The Fallen" and written by Thomas E. Sniegoski, in case someone knows him.
So, since the books really weren't expensive I decided to get them...I ordered two bekauce it was all a bit confusing, however, I ended up with part 2 and 3 of the whole story *laugh* wasn't really that bad, since I had seen enough of the movie to know what happened until the beginning of the second book.
The more I read the more I fell in love with the series...it is really amazing and it has been a long time since I have been THAT keen on a 'real' book (instead of fan/original fiction on the internet)...BUT unfortunately I had to realise, that there was a 4th book as well...which actually is the real problem. While the first 3 are available without a problem there seems to be no fuckin way to get the last one. I mean, come on! You can't be serious...I NEED to know the end...I'm so frustrated, really. I went to a bookstore and asked there, but their wholesaler didn't even have it on their list of goods...Amazon is being a mean bitch, only having it listed as second hand book for 88 - 144€ (I mean, WTF? Seriously...) Ebay.com's got it for 98 Dollars and Andy said he found it on german ebay for about 66€ *sigh*
S...I just wrote a mail to the american publisher Simon Pulse books, asking if there was any way to get it...
(By the way, the book is called "The Fallen - Reckoning"...if anyone has any bit infomation regarding where to get this, please let me know, I'd love your for the rest of my live...)

*sigh*

...I'm out

My whole body hurts, but whatever.

Just wanna tell you that this have been the greatest diru shows I've ever been to.
If someone tells me they don't like what they do anymore that person is a fuckin liar.
I stood 1st row both times, and damn they had fun (even if the audience in Munich sucked).
Die and Toshiya were smiling and laughing almost all the time and were acting like kids sometimes (yeah...adult nr. one Toshiya threw the screwcap of his waterbottle at Die XD)jumping arround and interacting with the audience...Kaoru was like glowing from the inside, Shinya looked pretty satisfied and even Kyo smiled (in an honest way, not psycho)
...
And all of this gave me the last motivation I needed to add some more pics to my "'cause we're friends" series.
It will take some time, but I have 4more DVDs I can screencap, so watch out XD

the Setlist for Dresden:

- G.D.S
- Repetition of Hatred
- The Fatal Believer
- -saku-
- Disabled Complexes
- Rotting Root
- Agitated Screams of Maggots
- Ryoujoku no Ame
- Obscure
- Conceived Sorrow
- The Final
- dead tree
- Mercilless Cult
- Grief
- The Deeper Vileness
- Lie Buried with a Vengeance

(-Kodou -Munich only)
- C
- Clever Sleazoid
- The IIId Empire

And let me tell you...it was worth every cent I spent on it...
The portrait-fotos are just gorgeous (except thefact that it would have been nice to actually be able to see Yuana's face on his second >_>...), the fotobook is love (and the letter/comment from Christoph+Mathias from NeoTokyo/Gan-Shin Germany mady me cry ;_;...)
...
The DVDs themselves are...
*sigh*
awesome.
The one i watched first was the Clip-DVD with all those great PVs...high quality...finally...and the PVs from Nawa and Tonari machi no kanojo are great *grin*
And what I thought was pretty cool is, that between the clips there are little live clip from several concerts...even from the one in Berlin...I saw a friend of mine in the crowd XD...

...
and the Last Live...just let me tell you, that I never cried so hard watching a DVD,...*sigh*

But...despite all this...what I actually wanted to tell/ask is:
because me being me I took a load of screenshots from all the PVs (other stuff will follow once I have time...) and I plan to upload some of those shots.
So if anyone has a request, tell me what you want to see, or I'll just put up what I like most. And that won't be to many shots....because I don't like my shots being used by others without permission (cause it's some work to get them like this) and I'm to lazy to watermark them all...

yeah...that's it XD

ja ne~

ps: first journal-erntry after about one half year. I rule XD
