hallo! it is 1 AM so i'm going to say that last night was the first night of Hannukah. :D it was quite nice. i shopped for friend's gifts yesterday during the day, and such...crazy madness at the sales! that's why i don't normally shop on the day after thanksgiving! anyway, i got a really pretty new purse from my parents tonight, it's soft and made of this tan buckskin material, and has lovely white fleece lining. i looove it. (:

oh, and i got my webcam up and running, once again. ::maniacal laughter:: yes, after its brief run last year that was cut short by a computer crash, i have finally reinstalled the thing. so now you can catch me doing embarassing things and making funny facial expressions. it refreshes every 20 seconds or so.

anyroad, i'm about to finish my hot chocolate and go crash...finish up Fellowship of the Ring, hopefully. Nitey nite to all.

P.S. almost forgot...good song time! lyrics transcribed by me. download it, now, please!

the prom
"the city gets lonely"

the city gets lonely
nobody bothers old friends
the car is parked in the driveway
let's make use of it
we can go nowhere
we can go city to city
drive past the old highway
'cause there's nothing left to see
don't you agree? we all are dying ...

i've got some money
you've got a pack of cigarettes
together we'll mend our old wounds
and make fun of it
you tell the stories to keep me awake at the wheel
i'll drive as far as i can until the feelings become real
don't you agree? we all are dying ...

grew up way too fast
a lonely child in the car crash
but i know that we'll be friends 'til we die
don't you agree? we all are dying ...
it's time we start living.

PennyLane809: suddenly, 'come what may' started to play in the background, and they sang a duet much like ewan mcgregor and nicole kidman in moulin rouge.
relientkad: lolol
relientkad: reet
PennyLane809: "hmm, didn't know you could sing," said Draco, raising an eyebrow. "yeah, well nobody thought nicole kidman could sing either, eh?" replied snape.
PennyLane809: lol

haha, as i have discovered (thanks to Lez), playmash.com is VERY fun. i did a harry potter mash:

You will live in Apartment.
You will drive a Gray Basilisk.
You will marry Severus Snape and have 997648 kids.
You will be a hufflepuff. meh. in Azkaban.

hahaha. of all the possibilities.
PennyLane809: a hufflepuff in azkaban is like a drag queen in a really nasty federal prison
