I'm a pirate, baby! or: OMG! WTF?

I did it!

I watched the new 'Pirates of the Caribbean'-movie. (by now I can spell 'caribbean, too ^^)

May I admit a few words before story telling?

Oh my god! What the fuck?

A friend of mine and I went to the wonderful cinema of our town which only shows original movies. No synchronisation, no subtitles.
That's so like heaven!

Anyways, I saw the first movie and it was a great laugh combined with a nice story, a pretty kind of English and catching music.
The latter is a thing I noticed quite late, our orchestra played the score while I was in Sweden, I have their version on disc and it is breathtaking.
Even if I haven't been there and haven't played it yet I really can imagine how it's like to play the whole thing.
But playing scores for movies is a dream to me anyhow.

So I knew that the music would be just fine, no eperiments, little new stuff and all the old motives of course. Ok, I'm not that conservative but I was scared that this 2nd part would be like Pocahontas 2.

Not only I could rely on the music, it was funny, Jonnie Depp as Jack Sparrow, excuse the mistake, captain Jack Sparrow, did as the role obliged.
We could reunite with the important old figures, our whole little pirate family + some new characters.

Most impressive was the change of Commodore Norrington to me, just look!

Before:

You see this serious guy, a little strict, very British an no match at all. A terrific german word to describe him would be 'Spiesser' if you know what that means.

After:

By excluding the others you see it's the guy to the left. Dirty, looking like a pirate and just gorgeous. Really, now his beautiful face gets a chance because his hair is open and his whole personality seems to have got a ... personality. I'm sorry, that's just too sexy!

Though not everything was as it should have been:

Way too many special effects!
And they were much too fast, your eye can't catch what's happening in some scenes.
Damn, this is an adventure movie, no action movie.

Exaggeration!
Many jokes were exaggerated, the charakters sometimes behaved like a parody of themselfes and I doubt that was meant to be.
They gilded the lily.

The ending was a huge surprise. Really. Didn't expect that. OMG!

I noticed that the actors didn't swear. Okay, a little "bloody" or something like that but to swear like it was expectable by pirates? No way.
Is this due to Disney?
I would have sworn the hell out of me if I was in such incredible situations like them.

Because of that my WTF. It's needed. That's what you're thinking while sitting there, staring at the screen. Thinking 'Hell no! What the fuck?'. It's too crazy, too impossible and outrageous. It just can't be true.
But's it's a movie, I almost forgot.

My résumé?

If you liked the first part you might like this part, too.
If you like historical costumes you have another reason to like it.
Same with the action and special effects part.

This was not a masteriece or a sleeper but it will entertain you. Surely.

By the way, my friend was so overwhelmed by the whole movie, especially the end that she was crying, no, sobbing afterwards. Due to happiness!

motivation - frustration

I am so motivated!

Okay, i got dishes to do and I wooon't -_-, but hey, I have a wonderful idea!

I want to welcome an exchange student at my home in the year o7/o8.
This is quite exciting because I live in my own flat and she (I wantt a girl ^^) would live in one room with me but well, I have been i Sweden o5/o6 as an exchange student so I know what it's like.

She would have a great time, just imagine living without parents ;)

No, it's not actually like that, I do not expect that it was possible for the organisations if there are no parents. My mother lives near me with her boyfriend, my brother and his friends (yes, they do live there) so there is always the oppurtunity to go there, have a meal, a hug or just he chance to watch TV because I don't have one.

Pro

• I have somebody who lives with me
• I know what it's like and can understand her situation
• She learns to be independant in a bigger way than under the refuge of parents
• The whole intercultural aspect
• Making friends
  
• Explaining and showing her so much of the life here
• She has the chance of living in quite a big town
• The school is good and offers a lot
  

Contra

• She would come in the same year in which I am having my final exams, that can turnout to be a problem
• I just have this one-room apartment so there i no absolut privacy and no chance to flee

But the second contra needn't be a problem, there are possibilities to seperate the room, she can have my huge bed whilst I sleep on the couch, the desk i big enough for two.

Actually I shoul practise violin and clean my apartment but I don't really want to, I just want to eat cake and be lazy.
Thank god I have a conscience, it is very annoying and persistent

New beginning

Well, where to start ...

I just decided to write in English to comfort both the Swedes and the german people that might read this.
(If there are also Englishman or other fellows of this kind, no offend, I just didn't expect you)

There is to admit that I hardly have an idea of how to deal it this time but I will give it a try on a regulary base.

I'm now sitting in Frankfurt in Germany after having spent almost a year in Sweden as exchangestudent and I miss my people there and the nature and the language and the food and so on.
Therefore I plan to get back for studies in 2008 if I'm able two master the final two years of school.

I am also trying to figure out who I am now, how I have changed, what rested and if I am fitting in myself actually.

But now I might just go to sleep, I am still awake, summervacation explains eveything, I guess.
