  1. What song(s) are you really into at the moment?!

    Yeah, I think that element might be what led me to think that she was "boring" at first. But then, the only other song I know apart from the two on the soundtrack is Sea of Love, so thanks very much for the share Must listen to her actual albums! When I saw "Metal Heart", I thought it was a cover of the Garbage song...
  2. Game show Mafia: Signingsings

    I've signed up for two others already Sorry!
  3. What's keeping you up this late?

    Waiting for my sheets and towels to be tumble dried...so I can take a shower. Yes, I am an idiot. : peace:
  4. When do you put your Christmas tree up?

    ^My favourite tree so far. Beats hand turkeys (wtf). The bow at the bottom looks a bit uncomfortable though...like it was tied up for ransom
  5. What song(s) are you really into at the moment?!

    Mainly because it's on the soundtrack of My Blueberry Nights. I used to think that her music was boring, but I'm really feeling the depth of her voice right now.
  6. When do you put your Christmas tree up?

    Same here, live with one other/mostly alone and I really cannot be bothered. I go home for Christmas anyway. Before my mum had to work, we used to put it up mid-December, or a little earlier. But now it's very last minute as both my parents are busy.
  7. What does your name literally mean?

    I don't know what my English first name means, but Russian and Indian demonstrators at college often argue about whether it's a Russian or Indian name. My Chinese name is kind of made-up (as in, not an existing name my parents pulled out of a baby names book). It means something like, I'm able to "encounter things that I want to meet". My Chinese surname apparently indicates that I'm a descendant of a Chinese king. Nothing else of interest. And no, I'm not posting either as I'm averse to putting out any personal details online

  10. bad stuff thread.

    Their house is an apartmen that is next door to mine Do you still think I should do it? WITH FIRE??
  11. good stuff thread.

    @Frank - sounds like Diageo is teaching you well :p Weren't you cold???
  12. bad stuff thread.

    Noise at 3am next door last night, so I had to use my fancy noise-cancelling earphones and listen to music I didn't want to listen to until I fell asleep. Resulting in waking up late, and having hung up on all of my dad's calls because the alarm tone on my phone is the same as the ringtone (that's just idiocy on my part though). I never want to live near students again. EVER.
  13. Foreign languages

    I just wrote a big post that disappeared somehow Immersion is key. Watch movies/shows, read books, newspapers, blogs, sites, listen to music and podcasts, find a native speaker. Learn and try to experience the cultures too. Having a really big interest in a language is the best, it really accelerates learning. It's kind of stupid how I learned Irish for...13 years and promptly forgot it as soon as I left school (loooool hated it), but learned how to read Korean in like, a day. Try sites like eduFire, I've heard good things about it. Smart.fm (now iKnow) used to be really good, but it charges now. Find sites with good notes and audio clips, make a list and learning plan/timetable, be motivated
  14. Sick people

    I thought this thread was going to be able sick people coughing in waiting rooms... Dazz, your description alone sounds horrific so I'm not going to click on the links. I hope they get caught and reprimanded for this. Reminds me of the incidents involving a girl sitting on a sheet of glass above rabbits a few years back.
  15. Ace Attorney: The Turnabout Mafia

    I'm an idiot...I thought that meant your power was talking at night, and each time you use your power you get more powerful = =
  16. General Movie Thread

    Yeah, I feel like I might've gotten a better impression if I'd caught the beginning. Oh well, circumstances~ It's not worth paying to see it a second time, so I think rewatching it will be a piracy job... /death by film student
  17. General Movie Thread

    The ticket selling counter was closed, but we begged to be sold tickets anyway and ended up being let in for free! So...we didn't pay
  18. FEMMES FATALES // MAFIA SIGN-UPS

    Me, please!
  19. General Movie Thread

    Saw My Week With Marilyn last night with @Frank. I wasn't sure about seeing it at first as I have no interest in Marilyn Monroe, haven't even watched any of her movies :s But I watched the trailer, and realised that the actress playing her was Ruby in Prozac Nation - there was something I loved about her even though she was a minor character. So I thought that if worse comes to worst, I can just concentrate on her :p It was good though, Michelle Williams' acting is superb, Eddie Redmayne too - they showed a lot of difficult emotions in close-ups. It was fun to see, but felt more like a Weekend than a Week (though we did miss the first 20 minutes or so). Also, Emma Watson's part is kind of useless. It had a good mix of depicting the positives and negatives of being Marilyn Monroe - being appreciative of morbidness, I of course enjoyed the pills and crying more... @Frank mentioned that some of the quotes and actions were stuck in a bit too obviously, but since I don't know anything about Monroe, I didn't pick up on it at all. Overall: worth seeing, but not worth tripping over yourself to see. Michelle Williams and Dame Judi Dench were my favourites in it.
  20. Ace Attorney: The Turnabout Mafia

    Epic write-up Jonnas Thank you so much for GMing like a boss!! I was so scared after majority was reached yesterday in case I was hilariously wrong...mr-paul, you're a damn good liar :p I definitely thought there was at least one more mafioso though, so I didn't expect the game to end! Everyone played so well! Haha, I was right to keep it under wraps then Seems the mafia had a lot of good planning and thinking going on, no wonder I was so confused!
  21. Ace Attorney: The Turnabout Mafia

    On hindsight, I should've demanded that mr-paul dissect the post I lie detected and point out which of it wasn't true, but since majority has been reached...
  22. Ace Attorney: The Turnabout Mafia

    I didn't say anything about ReZ because after my vote post (in which I was like "vote for ReZ plz"), everyone followed through and he got lynched quickly anyway. So I didn't see any need for me to reveal my role so early. I would've said something if people had hesitated about voting.
  23. Ace Attorney: The Turnabout Mafia

    Argh#2! I should have clarified. 0/5 = truth, 5/5 = complete lies, in between = CONFUSION Therefore Dannyboy was telling the truth on Days 4 and 8.
  24. Ace Attorney: The Turnabout Mafia

    I did say to be careful, and that it was 2/5, not 5/5 :p My results: (I'm aware I could've made things look prettier, but I'm in a rush :p) Day 1: Voted no lynch. Day 2: lie-detect http://www.n-europeforums.com/showpost.php?p=1387223&postcount=57 1/5 Day 3: lie detect http://www.n-europeforums.com/showpost.php?p=1389151&postcount=234 5/5 Day 4: lie detect http://www.n-europeforums.com/showpost.php?p=1390694&postcount=330 0/0 Day 5: lie detect http://www.n-europeforums.com/showpost.php?p=1391868&postcount=391 0/0 Day 6: lie detect http://www.n-europeforums.com/showpost.php?p=1394240&postcount=545 2/5 Day 7: lie-detect http://www.n-europeforums.com/showpost.php?p=1397232&postcount=696 3/5 Day 8: lie-detect http://www.n-europeforums.com/showpost.php?p=1398734&postcount=752 0/5 Day 9: forgot... Day 10: lie detect http://www.n-europeforums.com/showpost.php?p=1400866&postcount=915 2/5 -- Please don't waste any more time and confusion on me, I'm town. Investigate me tonight, do anything you have to. Argh! The "0/0" should obviously be 0/5. Also, if the bolded part is the truth according to Peeps, then possibly the bit about redirection isn't? Or maybe the bit about me (he already knew what I do?) I know it seems like I'm scraping the barrel for incrimination, but I did get 2/5 and not 0/5 - something in there isn't the truth.
  25. General Movie Thread

    :| :| Though the song at the end does send kind of a bad message. -- What was the birth scene in Breaking Dawn like? D: It looks more like a horror movie than anything this time.
