Don't pretend you ever forgot about me...

Because I haven't... I was out beer tasting with two friends and two of my friend's friends (Frieda and Ingrid) yesterday, well I didn't do much of the tasting, but since they're from Norway they wanted to taste Belgian beer. Apparently it's good... It was great fun! Unfortunately I got home late and I was too tired to update this. Anyhow...
Last Friday Sara, Christine and I went to see this stand-up-comedian Wouter Deprez and his show 'Eelt' (I.E. a callus). This performance was less stand-up and more of a play, nevertheless it was hilarious. He starts the show by telling that five days ago, his father ran away from home. After that he explains that his father isn't the most communicatively skilled person and during the play he becomes his father, explaining why he took off and why he isn't the most talkative of human beings. I'm not going to recreate jokes because, well I can't but if you live in Belgium or The Netherlands, please go check it out. He's well worth the money!
I finally got to see Definitely Maybe. I'm not one for romantic movies but this one was well worth my time. It's about this dad whose little girl wants to know how her mom and dad met. He makes this little game out of it and changes the name of every girl he met during that period. The kid's job is to eventually find out who her mom is. I have to say that the outcome is pretty unexpected and I've never seen Ryan Reynolds play a part like that. It's a lot more serious and a lot less Berg and psycho-dad (The Amityville Horror).
Second try for exams are coming up and right now I'm wishing I tried harder... Next week I'm staying at my grandparent's for a week to be closer to school and I might stay another day to snoop around record stores in Brussels, just to see if the have the new The Academy Is... record. If not I'm gonna just order it from the FBR web store, they'll be happy to see that their number one customer is excessively buying merch again.
The happy season of award shows is coming up and Fall Out Boy is performing at the TMF-awards. I'm not sure if I'm going since I already have three gigs on my to-do list... But still... So everybody start voting on your favorite bands and I will be delighted to report on the winners and of course losers of the night, the very day after.
I just realized I my excessive use of again, I pretty much deleted all of them in this entry, I'll try to use some different vocabulary...
Well that's all folks!

Keep it toasty!
