Holy sh*tsnacks two posts in one day....this could break the internet :P Then again I can never pass up a music meme!

Nabbed from sillie82's journal. I used the rules I remember from before - iPod on shuffle and write the first line of the first 20 songs that came on, no skipping! sidenote: I used my 'Driving tunes' playlist (200+ songs) since when I tried the whole iPod a lot of EBM stuff came on...EBM isn't big on lyrics. I also went with 'first line of song' disregarding any sampling/spoken random bits.

So anyone reading this want to have a go at guessing the songs these lyrics come from? I'll post the answers as they are guessed correctly.

1. There is just enough Christ in me to make me feel almost guilty
2. Driving me on with the wind in my back
3. If you like to gamble I tell you I'm your man - Ace of Spades - Motorhead (jenniekitty)
4. Yo listen up here's a story ~ Blue (da ba dee) - Eiffel 65 (sillie82)
5. Let me tell you about a girl I know - Date Rape - Sublime (jenniekitty)
6. It's early morning, the sun comes out - Rock you like an hurricane - Scorpians (jenniekitty)
7. Dear mother can you hear me whining - Welcome to Paradise - Green Day (jenniekitty)
8. This time, taking it away, I've got a problem
9. I am the one, I am the one that you need
10. Great pains, I've gone to gang slang
11. Play again? - Pong (terrorfrequenz remix) - Eisenfunk (jenniekitty)
12. They call me "the leather apron" - Blood Red Sandman - Lordi (jenniekitty)
13. Caught here in a firery blaze
14. I am a bitch, How do you want me?
15. The bass, the rock, the mic, the treble ~ Shut me up - Mindless Self Indulgence (sillie82)
16. Now, as I lay here in the dark - My Funeral - Dope (jenniekitty)
17. There's no money, there's no posessions - Between Angels and Insects - Papa Roach (jenniekitty)
18. Break me down, you got a lovely face - Crazy Bitch - Buck Cherry (jenniekitty)
19. I get we gotta run
20. Let's leave this for another time

21. This is a song about the German clubs - tdzv - Faderhead (jenniekitty)

The bonus was for the fact that I can't work out the actual name for 20 (my ipod doesn't agree with the internet)
Also I love how 4 looks like it should roll into 5 - the songs couldn't be any more different

I'll be amazed if anyone reads this let alone guesses some of these :P

Looks like I'm still super lame at updating in 2015 too! *le sigh*


The letter meme.
sillie82 gave me the letter "H". If you'd like a letter, let me know. :)
Something I hate strongly dislike: Haters,
Something I love: Hummous, Harry Potter (books/films/world/everything), Hot Chocolate,
Somewhere I've been: Harry Potter studio tour (x3), Huddersfield (lived there for 3 years while at uni), (Hed)p.e. gig,
Somewhere I'd like to go: Harry Potter world (Orlando, Florida).
Someone I know: Higgins, Rosy.
A film I liked: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (the best of the lot)

'H' was a rather difficult letter O.o all I can say is it's a bloody good job Harry Potter begins with an H :P

Well hello there 2014! let's start with a 2013 meme...one which highlights my dire need to get back on here more often ^^

2013 LJ meme (nabbed from thilia)
Open the calendar of your livejournal and post the first sentence of the first post of each month. That is your year in review.

January: It's time for my pointless lists post again
February: Wow it's been awhile since I updated this thing ~ this time I shall blame, well me.
March: I've just had a week off work and actually managed to get a few things done
April: Birthday Wiki meme
May: We've actually had a sunny bank holiday and I still haven't left the flat
June: Harry Potter playlist meme
July: N/A
August:  Wow has it really been that long since I last updated....whoops!
September: N/A
October: N/A
November: N/A
December: Wow, so I've really been MIA recently (like 4 months of recently)
So yeah, can't say I was LJ productive last year (10 post in the whole year, 10! bit shocked really) I think the issue is me, and my thinking that nothing I do is post worthy. I have been trying to keep up with everyone's LJ and commenting where I can so it's not soooo bad...hopefully ^_^

The end of last year got a bit stressful ~ I got a new job and it knocked me back more than I'd though it would. I still work for the NHS but it's a (slightly) better band and a whole heap of new experience so yeah. I started mid December but had the interview in the October, got told I was a runner up and then got told I'd got it ~ bit of an emotional roller coaster really, added to the fact that I was leaving a job I'd been doing for 5yrs 5 mths so it was kinda scary too!

Anyway ~ I'm hoping to be 'better at LJ' this year (read have more confidence) which considering I've got 10 posts to beat can't be too tricky eh? :P

Hope everyone's having a great 2014 so far!

So I was randomly procrastinating browsing google and found the 'Harry Potter playlist meme' I figured why not and grabbed my mp3 player...some results were to funny not to share. I've included links to youtube videos for the curious ^^

I've no idea who to credit for the meme :(

Harry Potter Playlist

Put Your Media player on shuffle


1. Overall Theme Song: 'Zombienation (v.2k5)' ~ Grendel remix
2. Plays when I see my friends: 'I.D.O.L' ~ The Idol Dead  (I find this amusing since it's my friends band)
3. My wedding song: 'Night Surgeon' ~ Repo the Genetic Opera
4. Traveling song while camping: 'Issues' ~ Mindless Self Indulgence
5. Song that plays when I destroy a Horcrux: 'Here to Stay' ~ Korn (not the best for getting rid of something really ^^)
6. Alarm that sounds when I enter hogsmeade: 'Slam' ~ Pendulum (not the best alarm, it's got quite a build up)
7.  Plays when the Order Of The Phoenix arrives: 'When Worlds Collide' ~ Powerman5000
8. Plays during the battle of Hogwarts: A.D.I.D.A.S ~ Korn (hilarious! when you know what the letter stand for)
9. Plays when Voldemort dies: We're No Here ~ Mogwai (a rather fitting, creepy song)
10.  Plays over end credits: 'I Believe in Blood' ~ Nachtmahar (opening line ~ Have we seen the actual reality of a monstrous crime? Or merely an illusion? The product of a tortured brain ~ something tells me it's not the end :P)

Go to Wikipedia and look up your birthday (excluding the year). List three neat facts, two births and one death in your journal, including the year.

~ 24th January ~

3 Events

41Roman Emperor Caligula, known for his eccentricity and cruel despotism, is assassinated by his disgruntled Praetorian Guards. The Guard then proclaims Caligula's uncle Claudius as Emperor
1908 – The first Boy Scout troop is organized in England by Robert Baden-Powell.
1984 – The first Apple Macintosh goes on sale.

2 Births

1949John Belushi, American actor (d. 1982)
1958 – Jools Holland, English singer-songwriter and pianist (Squeeze and Jools Holland's Rhythm and Blues Orchestra)

1 Death

1965Winston Churchill, English army officer and politician, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Nobel Prize laureate (b. 1874)

It was a toss up between Churchill, Chris Penn (actor) and Ted Bundy (serial killer) for 'deaths on my birthdate' but I decided to stick with the theme of the week ~ deceased prime ministers

1. Comment on this post with "MEEEEEE!"
2. I will give you a letter.
3. Think of 5 fictional characters and post their names and your comments on these characters in your IJ/LJ/DW.
----> sillie82 gave me 'P'

I actually found this rather difficult, do you know how many character's names do not begin with a P ^_^ I managed to come up with my 5...though I bet there's some obvious ones I've fogotten, feel free to point any out so that I can kick myself



five fictional charactersCollapse )

I now have a bad urge to reread my comics (they're at my parents) and rewatch LOG ^^

This ones doing the rounds again :)

midnightmurdina gave me the letter ~ Y ~ and bloody hell was it challenging

1. Reply to this post and I'll assign you a letter.
2. List (and upload) 5 songs you love that begin with that letter.
3. Post them to your journal with these instructions.


1 ~ Youth of the Nation - P.O.D
2 ~ You Walk Away - Filter (can't find a youtube link for this)
3 ~ Your True Face - God Module (the first song in this mix - up until 1:25ish when another songs starts getting mixed in)
4 ~ You Spin me right round - Dope
5 ~ Yummy Down on This - The Bloodhound Gang

I'm not understanding this 'upload' business so I'm just gunna link them to youtube versions of the songs

I wouldn't say I love these songs, it was more of a case of 'these songs I listen(ed) to begin with y they'll do' with the exception of the first 2. The opening few notes of no. 1 takes me straight back to college, while no.2 I still play in the car

...crap at updating recently. I meant to have the answers to that music meme I did a few weeks ago up by now :(

So without further adeu (sp?)

This is the music meme I'm on about

I'm 'borrowing' sillie82's idea and including youtube links (where avaliable) for the songs 

The songs nobody gotCollapse )

and posting that took a lot longer then I was expecting!
 
~ in other news I'm rather busy working on two things 1) a knitting commission the lovely
[info]
dark_persian trusted me to make :P and 2) my Halloween costume, Amber Sweet's 'Zydrate Anatomy' costume is proving to be a tad challenging
But I did manage to give blood today ~ last time I just seemed to stop bleeding (even though the needle was in the vein and did start flowing) I'm really glad I can still donate, it also means my vein hadn't collasped which I suppose is good since I kinda need it  ^_^

I really can never resist doing these

Snagged from (sillie82 )

Rules:

Step 1: Put your MP3 player on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 30 40 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Bold the songs when someone guesses correctly.


The songs...Collapse )

Its been nearly a Month since I last posted something, guess I'm boring ^^

~ I decided against posting some photos from Download, since I took so many and I think you all are on my Facebook anyway and if so desired could find the photos there 

~ Next week I'm moving out! Kinda nervous about this I havent lived alone' since I moved back from uni (Jun 2007). Well technically I'm not alone, I'm moving in with adelaide_rain so it should be awesome, even if my bank dissargees

~ A week on Friday its London! so looking forward to this. We (adelaide_rain, jenniekitty and dark_persian) are heading there on the Fri and coming back Monday. Since we're not going to an anime convention this year we decided to have a fun weekend away. Again my bank will be crying but sod it, I've never been to Camden so I plan on enjoying that

and because I can never pass up a music meme

Stolen from midnightmurdina
