What'd I miss?

[dhampyresa]

Eurovision thoughts: MOLDOVA WAS FUCKING ROBBED.


An incomplete list of stuff I did while away from the internet: art (pencils, oil paint, watercolours), minimal writing (did you know it's hard to write without a computer), swimming (3K IN 1H42!!! record à battre), read a lot (mostly in French --  also I have thoughts), was told that I wasn't an asshole, had my teeth hurt like bloody hell (it's nothing to worry about), saw friends, went on dates, learned some poems and probably spent longer going "OMG I HAVE MUSCLES NOW :D" than I should have, but you know what? I HAVE MUSCLES NOW!  Hell, yesterday I even managed 100 push-ups (in 10 sets of 10, not in one go). I am severely regretting this choice today, but I did.


Between voluntary break, Eurovision and broken computer, I've been away for pretty much a month. WHAT'D I MISS? It can be big stuff, small stuff, I'm sure I've missed a lot.

I remember days of "I have muscles? Where'd those come from?" followed by my girlfriend reminding me that my job entailed heavy lifting.

I know where they're coming from (swimming), but I still go "where did they come from? So big!" when I see them, hahaha.

THEY WERE TOTALLY ROBBED!

I would also have been happy with success for Romania, Belarus or Hungary because they were all great fun performances, but Moldova actually had a really good tune. Also, the half-time entertainment were brilliant - I would have voted for them!

THE MOST ROBBED

I would have been quite happy for any of those to win too!

I relocated doomfans to Dreamwidth! (And technically also relocated myself to Dreamwidth, but since I never post anything anyway it doesn't make much difference.)

EXCELLENT

THIS IS MOST RELEVANT TO DOOM'S INTERESTS

[dhampyresa]

It was quite nice, mostly.

you have muscles now! muscles are awesome!
I know! That's why I wanted some :P

Agreed, Moldova's song was so much fun! I think my personal favorite Eurovision entry this year was Azerbaijan, but there were several I would have been very happy to see win. I think part of my disappointment is that Portugal won so heavily; surely it wasn't that many times better than everyone else! D:

[dhampyresa]

My other favourite was Belgium, but Moldova's was just so much more Eurovision-y.

Agreed. Why the fuck did Portugal win THAT HEAVILY?!

Muscles are always a good thing... and it sounds like you packed a lot into that time away.

[dhampyresa]

Thank you! And I did.
