So if my Time Zone Converter is correct, HKO is scheduled to open for the Founders in about half an hour. It’s a bit after 3.30am my time and I pondered a while over wether to get to sleep early to be able to wake up or if I’d just not go to sleep at all. Since the anticipation made me “not-at-all-sleepy” it kinda just decided for the latter automatically.

So I’ll just have my own little HKO-wake here in front of the computer. I’ll be in the chat-room incase anyone wanna join me.

At 2.50am I decided to run HKO incase there was a new patch, and there was. Then I couldn’t help but try and login and I got to accept some Terms and Conditions - that’s new. Then - to my utter surprise - I actually got in!

There weren’t many of us around, but I got to see Victor and Tidesong running around in there before GM Neverender announced that the server would go down for 45 minutes. But during the about 15-20minutes I got in there I got to see the moving windows. They weren’t the only things moving though. The windmill in Paris was moving, as well as the water in the London fountain. So pretty!

The Maps looked a bit different

And there where new NPC’s I met (or were they there during Christmas? I might have missed them then)
 

So… 30 minutes left huh? I just hope I can get back in then and not be run over by the crowd.

I’ve recently started watching an anime called Chi’s Sweet Home. Seeing how noone in Sweden is airing the show, I watch it over Youtube.

I’m trying to take it slow so it won’t be over to soon. So far I’ve watched until episode 15, which is also my favourite.

Chi is a cute kitty who wanders off from her family and gets lost one day. A human family finds her and takes her in. It’s such a cute story! And since I love cats I can’t help but like Chi as she is the typical cat.

Anyone else watching Chi’s Sweet Home? Or reading, for that matter. It started as a manga after all.

First of all; HKO has made the New Installer and Patch available for Download. So if you still have your client, and participated in the Christmas Reunion; run the program to start the patching. Or, if you want to download it faster, use the manual patch.
If you didn’t participate in Christmas Reunion, uninstall the client and download the client again along with those who hasn’t been part of Founders’ Beta.

So far so good… except
If you live in Europe!

“Sanriotown users in Europe will not be eligible to participate in Hello Kitty Online at this time.” says the official blog.

Allow me to cry for a minute.

Ok, I’m officially scared now. I don’t get to play? Surely this can’t be the case for European Founders’ now can it? Can it?!

For once I’m looking forward to Valentines’ and now this. Oh, well.. hope is that last thing that leaves. I will still stay up through the night and try to get in like usual. You’ll hope with me, right?

*off to find a shooting star* I need to make a wish.

EDIT: Thankfully, azog (unlike me) knows how to read properly and found this in the same official blog;
“All HKO Founders from all countries are automatically eligible to play HKO and join the Happy Hearts event.”
Phew, now I’m all happy again!

 
Founders’, it’s time to join up again!

I got home today to find the newsletter for the founders’ in my mailbox. During a couple of days around Valentine’s Day we get to meet up in-game again. I’m so excited!

Seeing how I missed the Christmas reunion I will not be working on the day that the Happy Heart Event opens the doors for us once again. I will be there at 22 EST Feb 12th!

Did you see the image of the farm? I can’t wait to see what other options there are, I want a pretty farm now! (”players can now enjoy 8 new uniquely-designed farm types!“)

If you haven’t got the newsletter, just run over to the official blog to read the news. Will I be seeing you in-game?

My speakers have come down with some sort of disease that has them making a sort of wheezing sound that isn’t really that much fun to listen to. So I thought I’d start looking for new ones. And why not check out the Hello Kitty-versions?

Seeing how Sweden is boring I quickly turned to my old pal Ebay. Only to find nothing I liked. I did however find some other comp-stuff that put me in a craving-mood.

Like this mouse with a cute dog on, pinkness!

And of course, I need a keyboard just as pink!

And then, this is simply a necessity. How could you survive without a computer vacuum cleaner? ^_^

I need to pink up my comp… I need to bug work about giving me some more work..

Ok, now I’m starting to shake. Cause I know some of you have managed to find my YouTube, but still that’s only a small percent of those I know. And even though singing is a big part of my life, I’m terrified of what you will think of me after this. But like I just said, singing is a big part of my life, and so it should be a part of my blog in some small way.

Hey, this post will be drowned beneath a lot of others soon enough anyways, right.

So since my most popular video recently reached over 5000views and I just got “#98 - Most Viewed (This Week) - Musicians - Sweden” which is the first “award” (or whatever you call it - honour!) I’ve gotten, it might be time.

This is my most recent video, where I sing “Hurt” by Christina Aguilera. If you don’t like singing-videos much then you can just move along and pretend you never saw this.

I present to you, a playlist with all the songs I currently have on my MP3 (All except one - “Agnes Carlsson - On and on” - you can prob find it on YouTube if you’re curious).

What do you have on your MP3? ..or comp playlist? ..or spinning in your CD-player? Any similarities? Who shares my taste in music?

I just can’t help but love this song.

This time, I wonder what it feels like
To find the one in this life, the one we all dream of
But dreams just aren’t enough
So I’ll be waiting for the real thing, I’ll know it by the feeling
The moment when we’re meeting, will play out like a scene
Straight off the silver screen
So I’ll be holding my own breath, right up ’til the end
Until that moment when, I find the one that I’ll spend forever with

Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There’s gotta be somebody for me like that
Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know they’re not alone
There’s somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There’s gotta be somebody for me out there

Tonight, out on the street, out in the moonlight
And dammit this feels too right, it’s just like deja vu
Me standing here with you
So I’ll be holding my own breath, could this be the end
Is it that moment when, I find the one that I’ll spend forever with

Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There’s gotta be somebody for me like that
Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know they’re not alone
There’s somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There’s gotta be somebody for me out there

You can’t give up, looking for a diamond in the rough
You never know, when it shows up, make sure you’re holding on
Cause it could be the one, the one you’re waiting on
Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
And everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There’s gotta be somebody for me, ohhh

Nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know their not alone
There’s somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There’s gotta be somebody for me out there
Nobody wants to be the last one there
Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
There’s somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There’s gotta be somebody for me out there

Lyrics from lyricsmode.com

So I went to see Twilight on the cinema, and - just like I said - I loved it! I loved it enough to go see it no less than 4 times! Yes, I know, I can’t really believe it either, but it’s true. I’ve seen it 4 times and I still can’t wait to get it on DVD. I’ve never been to see the same movie on the cinema more then once - never in my whole life. It’s weird.. it’s a first.

Well, since I loved the movie so much, I decided to read the books. In one week I had finished all four (3 in swedish and Breaking Dawn in english since it hasn’t been translated yet). Then I re-read the 3 first in swedish and now I’ve started re-reading them all from the start in English. They are better in their original language I think.

I just fell in love with the whole story and I really wish that Stephenie Meyer could finish Midnight Sun and release it.

My sister is reading them all as well and she keeps telling me that I’m so much like Bella. Maybe that’s why I like the books so much - I can really relate to her. Only, I wish I had more of her good qualities and less of her bad ones. Cause the whole clumsy, pale, shy-thing I’ve got. But put me in a kitchen and you’ll be happy if the kitchen makes it out of the experience alive. I even broke my kitchen fan!

Anyways, I’ve got a couple of Twilight-things to make sure that noone miss my huge addiction when they enter my place. For starters I bought the “Twilight Saga Box” with all four books in English.

It also included some collectors cards or something. Big cards with the book-cover images on. I decided to frame them and put them up on my wall next to my bed.

After that I turned to my loyal friend Ebay to search for Twilight goodies. They have all sort of things there. Like replicas of the Cullen familys jewellry.

In the movies they have added something that isn’t included in the books. A family crest for the Cullens. Every member of the family wears this crest as a piece of jewellry. Carlisle has a ring, Esme a bracelet, Rosalie a necklace, Emmet, Jasper & Edward a leather bracelet and Alice a choker.

I decided to get the one thing that is connected in the way that it has the Cullen crest, but it isn’t worn by anyone in the movie. A locket.

I simply love it!

After that I had to have Bellas bracelet. Not any of the ones she wore in the movie, but the one from the books. If you’ve read Twilight, you know what I’m talking about.

Once again I turned to Ebay, but this time I didn’t find anything I liked, so I made my own version. The bracelet is in silver as well as the clasps on the charms. The wolf isn’t in wood, but in stone. It’s brown stone though, so it sort of resembles wood, right?

So… have you read Twilight? Any fanpires among my readers?

So I’ve added a “My HK-thingies”-page where I collect all of my Hello Kitty-trinklets. I also noticed that there are a couple of things I haven’t listed in the blog yet. So it’s time to do an update!

First off is another buy from my work. A Gum Disc Dispencer.

You pull a button and gums pop out. Isn’t it cute?! And I can hang it on my bag.

Then I tried to find all my HK-pins, but I could only find one..

Oh, well. The others will probably turn up soon enough.

Then I have two things from the Hello Kitty Magazine.
Issue #2 contained a necklace:

And #3 included a radio.

And last but not least. When mum went to Stockholm to do some shopping, she walked by this in a window and couldn’t help but stop and buy it for me. She is so sweet and thoughtful - and without knowing it she bought it right after my alarm-clock had stopped working!
