Blood Lines by Tanya Huff

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Liked this book better than the first one of the Victoria Nelson series, thought not as good as the 2nd one. Henry and Mike were characterized very good, and I also liked Tony. But the main character, Vickie, is somehow not likeable enough for me.
In the Tv show they gave Henry and Mike the exact opposite hair colours, and as I've seen the show before I began to read the books, this is pretty confusing as I always imagine the faces from the series when reading the books.

Der Schatten des Windes by Carlos Ruiz Zafón

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I didn't think I would like this as much as I did. I heard a lot of good reviews, so my expectations were very high. The first 50 pages an kinda slow, but then the characters and the stories developed, and I couln't stop reading.

Die Bibel Fur Dummies by J Geoghegan

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


An interesting and fun read. It shows that even if you're not religious at all, the bible is good literature. And if you're religous, the additional information gives a lot to tell off irritating "I-don't-believe-in-anything-and-you-should-do-that-too"-people.

Mal schauen, für was ich mich letzendlich entscheiden werde.

Today I have an qualification test for a master program I want to do. It is master of logistic management and consulting. I already talked with my boss(es) about this, and the company is even willing to pay for half of it. So there is just this test I have to do.

The test is consisting about two parts. One is a multiple choice test with 30 questions. From those 30 questions I have to answer at least 20, and 10 of them have to be correct.

The second part is an interview with the board of the university.

For the second part I can prepare myself - I guess it's gonna be the usual questions. Why do you want to study this, do you even have time for doing a master while you're working, does your company know about this yadda yadda.

For the first part I'd really like to prepare myself - I called, and the answe is that I should not prepare, they like to know what I still now of my studies. I really don't like not to be able to prepare myself for this test (or any test at all), but well. Maybe I'll randomly skip through what I learned at varsity (no problem, just being five or six folders full of it).

Well, either I'll fit in or I don't.

Wish me luck :)

I am such an idiot. I accidentely suscribed to a paid account under a wrong user name. See, I wanted to include my LJ into my website, and to try out how this works I created a new user called "cattydotnet". And instead of logging out and on with my cattys user name, I bought the paid account for the user name I won't use, damnit. I wish I didn't sign up for the whole year :( Maybe they can switch it, otherwise I'd have that account name which I would not even use, or would get a paid account for cattys again and have 20 bucks wasted on nothing. *sigh*

Oh well, I am back from Sweden, btw.

Off to Sweden :D Poll will continue in a week!

No matter what happends this evening, I am really in awe with the German Mannschaft. They played magnificent.

Since '04 I am watching every game they show on Tv when Germany plays, and I have to admit they were many games literally painful to watch. At this worldcup it really was no luck but pure awesomeness that brought them further.

I love how the people celebrate together, I love all the Germany flags (today I saw a car who belonged to somebody who looked rather turkish which was all decorated with Germany flags LOL). I really don't mind having all this outlandish looking people in the german team. I mean, look around: A bunch of turkish people, black people, polish people and some Müller's and Schmidts. That's Germany today, and that's how companies, agencies and teams should look like to represent the country.

And I love how the mood is ten times better during the wordcup. Usually politics decide something aweful during this time and you don't get it cause you were so focussed at football and you just realize it weeks later XD.

I wish with all my heart that they will play as awesome as they did recently and that they will go into the finale ♥

This time it was a clear decision: The beautiful Deborah had to go, along with Orlando Bloom. So let's see if this week's decision is as clear and who has to go this week:

I have a list with 10 female and 10 male celebs I like aka. I find sexy. Now it is up to you to decide who is the sexiest and you can decide that by voting for the people you DON'T LIKE in every round. At the end,there should be one woman and one man left...

VOTE FOR/AGAINST ONE GIRL AND ONE GUY YOU DON'T WANT TO STAY ON THE LIST!!!

Please find pictures for reference after the cut!

After another execuive decision, Clive Oven had to go, despite Karl Urban had also the same amount of votes. The beautiful Scarlett is out, she had the most votes.
