Repeat after me: "I am free"

Awesome image that popped up on Digg:



Graffiti on Philip St, Bedminster, Bristol, UK (opposite Windmill City Farm)

Anyway, I went to the Emilie Autumn concert last Friday, which was extremely awesome. She's much better live than I thought, since most of her live recordings arent all too well XD This was a cool concert on all accounts. The decor was amazing, the woman were amazing, and Emilie herself was amazing.

For pics, go here (Evelien's), or here (Mine). Videos are available here (mine)

I also promised you some Portishead material. Pictures are available here.

My piercing video is also available here.

New theme and page

I was bored at my internship, so I installed a new theme for my blog. I hope you like it. It fits my current communist views a bit more ;)

I also added a new page, about my piercing and it's ongoing status. I found a site which did the same, which helped me a lot, so I decided to do the same, for those of you who are considering getting a nape piercing.

You can access it through the link on top of the page, or this one

And now I'm going back to doing 'research', a.k.a. slacking ;)

You take what I can give and you treasure it

This weekend we were legon once again, and it was win after win after win after win, especially for me.

I did something I wanted to do for a long time; a free hugs campaign. And it was awesome. I hugged a _lot_ of people. Including 4 half naked drunken Brits. Male Brits. Who decided it would be fun to make a man-pile on top of me. My back still hurts :(

Pics and vids will come soon.

And my gf went out with us this weekend, which was really epic. Her first time going out in Brabant ;)

That's it for now. I'm riding the bus to my internship and I need sleep xD

EDIT: Video of Huganon: LINK!

The taste of life I can't describe

Alright, best 2 days in a long year.

Monday, we met at 12:30, ate a bagel, which I never ate because I suck. But they're lovely. After that we went to the hotel (after walking through the shopping district, and being dragged into a clothes shop because of a 'fabulous' dress xD).

Our hotel room was pretty sweet, nice bed, nice bathroom etc.

We went to eat at La Place, which was nice. But afterwards we went to the Portishead concert, which was A-FUCKING-MAZING. Really, they were even better live than on CD. Beth Gibbons is without a single doubt  the best singer I know.And I kissed her. Yes, that's right, I kissed Beth Gibbons. On the cheek, but it was a kiss nonetheless. She laughed, and I kissed my biggest idol. Fuck yeah.

Even the band before Portishead was amazing. Their name is Kling Klang, and if I had to describe them, I'd say, Kraftwerk a la 2008. Awesome stuff.

The next day. The dreaded day of my piercing. First things first. We started with breakfast at Bakker Bart (not exactly Tiffany's but it'll have to do). Then we went to her house, which I had never seen before. She lives lovely, btw.

At about 14:30 the time had come to go to the piercer. When we got there, all my anxiety went away. She was Brabants, like I am, superfriendly and funny. A typical Brabander, which is rare in Amsterdam.

We picked out how my piercing should look, and she totally agreed with my decision. After drawing and massaging my neck (Marlen has yet to massage me ;)), she pierced me. I won't say it didn't hurt, but it didn't hurt half as much as I'd expected. Fuck that, not even a quart of what I expected. Then again, I'm fucking imba.

Marlen had a microdermal done, which looks like a small black diamond at the end of her eyebrow. Very nice, and fking smexay.

We visited the Torture Museum after talking with Sharon (the piercer). It was nice to see, but I really felt for what my ancestors have had to endure. Damn the Catholic Church. Hypocrites.

And I kissed Beth Gibbons. Which I am listening to right now. Awesome!!! Now I am riding the train home. These two days were really awesome. The bond between me and Marlen grew noticeably. I love her :)

I made loads of Portishead, and three movies. Roads completely, Glory Box completely and a part of a new song. Marlen made a vid of me being pierced, to show that I really didn't scream like a little girl.

What a fucking long post! I've been typing on my iPod for over 40 minutes now. Time to end it!

Greetings from your now-pierced friend.

Addendum to my previous post

Allright, so according to Marlen she was not the first to say the L word. I disagree, but since I am such an easy going guy, I'll  admit, we both kind-of half said it before actually admitting it.

This is turning into an episode of the O.C. faster than a mouse sneezes. And that's fast.

And I'll take you for who you are

if you take me for everything...

So the night before last night (is that even an expression? I mean the night from Friday to Saturday) we said it.  Well, she said it first. The dreaded "L" word. And I don't mean lesbian, or limerick, or hell, even lobotomy.

No, she said she loved me. We kinda danced around the fact for a short while Friday evening, but then, at like 3:30am she texted me  that she loved me. I read it at like 10am, how's that for a start of a day :D

Of course I texted her back that I felt the same :) She's a very special girl, different from other girls I know or dated in the past. Something about her is just, I don't know. She knows to push all the right buttons, y'know? She can switch from being in a total Play-Wrestling mood to wanting to cuddle on 0.5 seconds.

I hope things work out between us. She's the nicest girl I've gotten to know in a long time. Let's see what the next 2 days will bring us, spending a lot of time together, I'm meeting with her at like 2 pm, then a concert, then hotel together, and the next day we're getting piercings :P

Oh lawd I'm in love again >_>

On a sidenote, this blog is turning into a whiney 14 year old girl's diary.  I'M SORRY, SUE ME.

Awesome week up ahead!

Next week will be AWESOME (as the title kinda suggests). Monday I'll go see PORTISHEAD! Woo! I've seen the setlist, and quite frankly, it couldn't have been better. All my favorites are on there :)

And then, Tuesday, I'll get my neck pierced :D Also awesome :D

And, Saturday the 12th we'll be pwning $cientology again :P

I'm at my internship now, and I kinda have nothing to do at the moment. But I worked very hard today so I'm allowing myself to slack a little.

Yesterday Marlen came over. And as far as I know, she's still in my room now xD We watched The Mist (yes we actually finished the movie :O) and went to sleep at like 2 am, while my alarm went off at 5:45 am >_> But it's worth it.

Allright, that's it for this entry. Keep trucking, and look out for a new theme soon. I think.

War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. Ignorance is Strength.

So I am reading George Orwell's 1984, which is thus far an awesome book, and a must read for, well just about everyone really. We can't let our world change into the world described by Orwell.

I bid on a set of 5 communist pins of Lenin, and I won them :D 5 of these awesome pins, for only €3,44! What a bargain! Now all I need is an awesome commie shirt, which i might buy next month. I don't know yet. I'll post a pic of the pins when they arrive.

Things are going sweet between me and Marlen. She spent the night two times now, and we stayed in a hotel twice as well :P She's coming over tomorrow, though she won't spend the night then. Too bad :<

We'll go to the Portishead concert this Monday (yay!) and she'll hold my hand when I'm getting my piercing :P She might also get a new piercing then, which is always awesome. And the 12th, after the Anonymous demonstration (go hug your mother btw), she'll come home with me and we'll go to the Heksenketel together :)

She's truly awesome >_> <3

I'm bored at my internship now. I had a lot to do today, but it's all done and now I got nothing to do. So I'm blogging. And now I'm done.
