True Blood

I just love the drama. It's my favorite show now. And I don't think, it's going to change soon. Vampires in Louisiana rule ;) So does Bad Things by Jace Everett :

The Sleeping Priestess

I have new widget on my blog. One of the scariest song. Because it comes from the scariest game I've ever played - Project Zero III (or Fatal Frame III).
Here is Japanese version:

And there is three English versions, one goes:
Sleep, priestess, lie in peace
Sleep, priestess, lie in peace
If you cry, the boat you'll ride, the last trip to the other side,
Once you get there, sacred marks you'll bear,
They shall be peeled off, should you fail to lie still.

Sleep, priestess, lie in peace
Sleep, priestess, lie in peace
If the priestess wakes from her dream
Perform the rite of stakes, her limbs pinned tight
Lest the doors open wide and suffering unleashed on all.

Go to the other side
Go to the other side
Cast the boat, take a ride, cross the rift to the other side
Further and further to the other side,
It must sail bearing your tattoos and our offering of tears.


The other two are HERE
I'm so busy. Don't have time to go to a bookshop and buy new Gaiman's book. I supposed to be edit in Poland on October 3rd.
And I still don't have it! Unbelievable!
But I watch and listen to: Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book
And I've seen this:

Live in my world

Long time not written. I work on my thesis and I start to hate writing. Just a joke. But it's realy hard to write more. So, another quotation. This time slogan from Sony:

"Live In YImage:PlayStationCircle.svgur WImage:PlayStationX.svgrld, PlImage:PlayStationTriangle.svgy In Image:PlayStationSquare.svgurs." – PS2


I know. It's old. But I like it.

Lore

Did you know:
Lore \lör\ n [Old English leornian to learn]
a : knowledge gained through study or experience
b : traditional knowledge or belief


And folklore:

1, The traditional beliefs, myths, tales, and practices of a people, transmitted orally.
2, The comparative study of folk knowledge and culture. Also called folkloristics.
And 3:
  1. A body of widely accepted but usually specious notions about a place, a group, or an institution: Rumors of their antics became part of the folklore of Hollywood.
  2. A popular but unfounded belief.

Quotation again

Well, this blog's becoming my private notebook of best quotations. Even though it wasn't the idea, I suspect, sometimes we do not have control over our own writing. I am working on my PhD thesis and I recall may films I have seen. Sky High is one of them. And my favorite. And there is the scene about afterlife. I like it:

Izuko: Welcome to the Gate of Rage. I am Izuko, Guardian of the Gate. You have died. You exist only as a spirit. To the Gate of Rage come those dead of misadventure, or murder. Here you may choose one way to proceed, out of three.
Mina: Three ways?
Izuko: One: Aceept death, ascend to Paradise, and prepare for rebirth. Two: As a ghost, forever haunt the realm of the living. And three: Curse one living person, and bring about their death. One who kills, however, falls into Hell... to suffer eternal torment.
Mina: What's all this about? What are you?
Izuko: You haven't accepted it. You were murdered.
