I've been playing around with this Generation Kill Christmas AU idea in my head for two weeks. I started thinking airports and Love Actually and then though Brad and Nate and Christmas and it all took shape in few seconds,I can be quite productive if I put my mind into it ;).

I haven't wrote anything in a very long while but always wanted to go back and write again,ideas always showed up from fin air but never became anything so I though a bit of Christmas in the Gen Kill fandom was worth dusting my so called creativity from deep under and start writing again.

Started writing today so hopefully I will have something touchable [LOL] by tomorrow. Yey :).


P.S. Listening to Phil Collins get me all Christmasy.

I'm not surprised,
Not everything lasts,
I've broken my heart so many times I stopped keeping track.
Talk myself in,
I talk myself out,
I get all worked up,
Then I let myself down,

I tried so very hard not to loose it;
I came up with a million excuses,
I thought I thought of every possibility,

And I know some day that it’ll all turn out,
You'll make me work so we can work to work it out,
And I promise you kid that I give so much more than I get~ mmm.......
I just haven't met you yet.

Mmmmm ....

I might have to wait,
I’ll never give up,
I guess it's half timin', and the other half's luck,
Wherever you are,
Whenever it's right,
You'll come outta nowhere and into my life.

And I know that we can be so amazin',
And baby your love is gonna change me,
And now I can see every possibility, mmmmmm....

Somehow I know that it’ll all turn out,
You'll make me work so we can work to work it out,
And promise you kid, I'll give so much more than I get, mmmm....
I just haven't met you yet.

They say all’s fair
in love and war
But I won’t need to fight it,
we'll get it right an',
we'll be united


and I know that we can be so amazin',
And bein' in your life is gonna change me,
And now I can see every single possibility, mmmmmm

And someday I know it'll all turn out,
And I'll work to work it out,
Promise you kid I’ll give more than I get
Than I get, than I get, than I get.

Oh, you know it'll all turn out,
and you'll make me work so we can work to work it out,
And promise you kid to give so much more than I get, yeah
I just haven't met you yet.

I just haven't met you yet,
Oh, promise you kid,
To give so much more than I get.

I said love love love love love love love.....
I just haven't met you yet
Love love love .....
So doy day ay ay ay, ay ay yeah
I just haven't met you yet!


With this Mister Buble just won be back. Simply perfect song lyrics and song.

It was christmas eve babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me: won't see another one
And then they sang a song
The rare old mountain dew
I turned my face away and dreamed about you
Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I´ve got a feeling
This year´s for me and you
So happy christmas
I love you baby
I can see a better time
Where all our dreams come true.

They got cars big as bars
They got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you
It´s no place for the old
When you first took my hand on a cold christmas eve
You promised me broadway was waiting for me
You were handsome you were pretty
Queen of new york city when the band finished playing they yelled out for more
Sinatra was swinging all the drunks they were singing
We kissed on a corner
Then danced through the night.

And the boys from the NYPD choir were singing Galway Bay
And the bells were ringing out for christmas day.

You´re a bum you´re a punk
You´re an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag you maggot
You cheap lousy faggot
Happy christmas your arse I pray god it´s our last.

And the boys of the NYPD choir's still singing Galway Bay
And the bells were ringing out
For christmas day.

I could have been someone
Well so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can´t make it out alone
I´ve built my dreams around you

And the boys of the NYPD choir's still singing Galway Bay
And the bells are ringing out
For christmas day.

my favorite christmas song :) or one of my favorite christmas songs.

"If the vote would change anything it would be forbidden."

And considering the times we live in and the country I live in I couldn't agree with that more.
I am sincerely sick of all the flyers people stick in my nose at every other corner or intersection everyday since the campaign started. Thanks but no thanks,I am not going to vote with you no matter how much mud you throw at the other candidates,how many political newspapers you are going to give me or anything else you will try to do to make me vote with you. I also don't think the way we're doing politics [or is it making?] here is the right way,well I actually know it's not.

Even with all that in front of me I still wanna go to uni and study politics,then I'd be a REAL politician,lol.
I'm not even sure I'm going to vote anyway,no real option for me.

That was my piece of mind for this round of elections,next one will be in five years when I will have a degree in this and I'll be more inclined to voting than I am right now.


Tonight season 2 of True Blood is starting here big round of YAY all over,and mum said she will watch it with me wait for this one because of Brad :) He's still Brad for her as she can't remember Alex's name. Good enough for me lol.

I guess this is my piece of update for the week being,though I wanna update some more over the week-end.

OH YEAH frustrated rant moment.

The international military expo was this week,still is till tomorrow,and it was advertised all over town. BUT obviously they didn't mention anything about how 3 out of the 4 days are strictly for specialists and how you need an invitation for it,which even though my friend applied for is still not here *taps fingers* I am loosing my hard earned patience with them. We'll try and go tomorrow at some point in the 6 hours that is opened and see if we can pay at the entrance or something. I'll try and be better prepared in two years when it's again.

In the previous post before completing the daily question I said why I haven't updated in two weeks but LJ eat it :|
Guess everyone's hungry tonight.

Anyway I'm all caught up with school and books and movies.Or more like catching up with old episodes of Stark's work and Rich and Wilson's episode of Cold Case.

Really loved them all,Six Feet Under,Nip/Tuck and Cold Case,al amazing and some very tear inducing,like Nip/Tuck,and I'm everything BUT a crier no matter who we're talking about,but I guess Stark's sad face almost got to me.

And when I'm not watching tv series I'm trying to finish the book about Che Guevara that I'm reading and that is what I expected it to be and so much more,really enjoying it.

Guess that's it for now.So in my so me fashion see you in two weeks,hopefully not. [I wrote two wheels LOL]

If you could go back in time to another decade, which decade would you choose and why? Would you want to return or stay there? What if you could bring one other person with you?

If I could go back in time I'd go back to either the 1960's because the music rocked,in all the ways I can think of,or to the period between the 1400's and 1500's and live in the middle of all that history and events. Would be like living in my own history book haha would make history nerd me really really happy.

I think I wouldn't come back from either of them,really why would I? And if I could I'd bring Janis Joplin and Charles Brandon [1st Duke of Suffolk] though it would probably shock them to death and back [kind weird formulation lol]

How I'd love to sit and talk to Janis Joplin......

 "I'm going away for a while
But I'll be back, don't try and follow me
'Cause I'll return as soon as possible
See I'm trying to find my place
But it might not be here where I feel safe
We all learn to make mistakes


And run
From them, from them
With no direction
We'll run from them, from them
With no conviction 

'Cause I'm just one of those ghosts
Traveling endlessly
Don't need no road
In fact they follow me

And we just go in circles


Well Now I'm told that this is life
And pain is just a simple compromise
So we can get what we want out of it
Would someone care to classify, 
A broken heart and twisted minds
So I can find someone to rely on


And run
To them, to them
Full speed ahead
Oh you are not, Useless
We are just

Misguided ghosts
Traveling endlessly
The ones we trusted the most
Pushed us far away
And there's no one road
We should not be the same
But I'm just a ghost
And still they echo me

They echo me in circles"



why do I always relate to the depressing songs? may that be my biggest mistake I make from now on. Maybe I'll find my place in the scary,dangerous and uncomfortable aspects of it and come on top.

 I haven't updated this in like 5 days or so,so I thought it would be good to give a shout out for the sake of boredom :)

Right now I am rearranging my bookcase to fit in some newly finished books,listening to music on my MP3 and shouting out to it while the PC is shouting out something else,making and baking chocolate chip cookies and watching "P.S. I love you". Little Napoleon here :) I should also be studying for my maths test tomorrow.


Been home all day TEACHERS STRIKE. From time to time I really love teachers,like right now :D.
I finished "One Bullet Away" yesterday,and at the last pages I wanted to weep a bit honestly,don't know what I wanted to prove to myself by not doing so. Been watching "The Mentalist" with mom in 5 episodes marathons,we're both hooked. Her because of Simon Baker and recently Tim Kang,me because of those two and Owain Yeoman :D apart from the awesome action.

I've been going thru the Gen Kill fandom fic archive and finding some awesomely hot fics I never red before after I finish all the Brad/Nate new ones I'm gonna re-read my old favorites.

Who said I only need to read my long list of books for school? I read 'em both,my list and their list :D
Soon enough I'll be talking about the porn ones at school instead of the ones they gave me,I almost did that by mistake with mum OOPPPS.

 I'm in my happy place.I'm in my weird place.I am in my happy weird place.I am me :).

Lately I've gone round being all smart and educated and shit,talking about big important shit,I've even payed attention to some of the local politics :),I am evolving and developing into something new to me lol. Am I finally acting like a grown-up? O.O

Anyway I am actually very into school this year.I have every lesson so far,I know what every teacher is talking about and I am ACTIVE IN THE MATHS CLASS! That is new news because I've spent the past 11 years of being a pupil/student hiding behind the people in front of me or simply ditching the maths class so the fact that I decided to pay attention and learn this subject is a very important,pleasing and self amazed thing. I simply decided I want to do good in maths and physics if I want to have a chance at the aeronautical class in two years :). And is going well so far.

So well that in fact I am communicating with my maths teacher and out of 28 people in class today only another boy and me wanted homework :D cannot wait to tell mom that tonight. She's always been maths inclined and I've been communications and languages so she should be proud.I know I am lol I am also very surprised that right now I am looking and learning from my notebook for fun and because I want to not because I need to.Am I or am I not a good example?

On another note I had a romanian test today and we had to write a news choosing one of the 3 topics : music,politics and sports. After I almost decided not to write it and lose 2 out of 10 points I remembered Nate and made up a news around him and CNAS. I am almost expecting my teacher to ask me how I made all that up when I actually combined some data from a few CNAS transcripts I red on Sunday :D Yah homes WE PIMPIN!

Ever since I started reading Generation Kill and One Bullet Away I've been waiting for a chance at school to write about them and when I sow this small chance I jumped and took it. And made Nate part of my future grade,good one I hope.

Talking of OBA I am almost done and I want to finish because I want to know what happens but I don't want to finish it. LOL dilemma peeps. I have this feeling Nate was actually more "aggressive" in reality that they put him in the show.Opinions?
I bumped into this section last night and was left with this big grin on my face and very very happy somehow. Brad/Nate love.

 ' "Roger. Escalation of force. Don't let him pass," I said. But I thought, Blue sedan? Fuck,I knew it. Fuck,fuck,fuck. Just as we move at the front of the battalion ,too. All right,Brad,you were Team Leader of the Year.Do the right thing,my man.'

Chapter 31,page 283.

The bigger picture is longer but that part the whole confidence don't know just hit a spot.I loved it.

Today was one of those days where you just wait for something decent to happen but nothing everhappens.Nothing not even the ususal boring stuff.Dissapointing.

Talking about dissapointing.How damn boring and unimpressive were the Emmy's last night? Just to join in the crowd of "BOO YOU EMMY'S" people. I had my fingers crossed for Generation Kill and Taking Chance but none got anything. But at least I got to have a good yummy look at Kevin Bacon.

But YEY for Shoreh Aghdashloo for winning! I didn't even know she was nominated so I was extremly happy when I sow she won.Think this was the only thing I got excited about lol.She deserved it.

The thing I (re)learned today? Never keep your fingers crossed for anything.When you do it usually ends up not happening lol.

The Black Donnelys tonight!
Hopeffully I won't falll asleep before it starts.

P.S. I realised both my hopes were for war (marines) movies/series. Haha.

I was reading comfortably "Itch In Your Veins" by [info]romanticalgirl as a personal reward for doing well in Maths today at school and for a well done homework when mum creeped behind me and started talking to me,exactly when Nate was touching Brad.Needless to say she scared me half into next month,and I tried to minimize the page only to reveal a wallpaper with the Alex "kissing" Stark pic on my background.

She gave me a look and started making fun of me,she's a cool mom and she'd probs understand the porn reading but yeah you know,not shomething you really want to share with you mother :).

Aparently she wanted to know if I wanted eggs.I gave in and laughed like a crazy kid.Again she gave me THE LOOK,again. I guess by now she has an idea of what I was doing.Is not like she hasn't creeped behind me while I was reading Gen Kill porn before,LOL,and this time was a light one,god knows what it will be next time.

How to put this perfectly? "I DON'T CHIAR!"

I guess that's about it lol.
This is actually the first year in my long 12 year career as a student/pupil whatever,that I am actually,well was,excited to go back to school.This morning I wasn't nervous or anything I just went to school.Like I was in the middle of the school year and it was just another day.Usually I'm either nervous,anxious,damn right scared or extremly pissed that I'm going back lol.

Our years classes mixed based on some requests and changes,AGAIN,so I have a new class with new classmates,except four girls from last year.We do changing like no one else and aparently we're damn proud of it.Changing orders come faster than in any other schools that I know,or know of,but only when IS NOT is our as pupils interest.SO damn nice eh?Don't try to change classes or anything because IT WON'T HAPPEN,or not anytime before the ending of the school year.

It's easy to say after the hour spent in class with the new classmates that the ZOO it's a quiet and relaxing place,even or especially,when the elephants are pissed ["I LIKE ELEPHANTS"].I have way more boys in my class than in any other year in highschool,maybe that's where the noise is coming from? I stand correct,that is where the noise is coming from -_-.Especially from the two overexcited and overlly hyper two ones in the desk in front of me.If we do end up mixed in desks,like our class's teacher suggested,I have a feeling the boys are more than the girls,I will kill without mercy the boy that seets next to me if its a loud annoying prick,will smile kill him LOL,The girls seem ok,but you know,you always have to keep your eyes open for the girls,that's where all the problems start from.I hate decripting girls,to put it like that lol.

By the looks of my current timetable,that will change at least 5 times by Christmas if I know my school that well,hell is going to look like ponies and rainbows next to my hell of a year.BUT HEY stress is what we do best! And I spoke to my ex romanian teacher and I have a possible tutor in the form of her.Go me go me go me!!

The funny fact of today: we were sat at the beggining of the day in our class "listening" [shouting over her voice] to our class teacher telling us about the year ahead,new policies and old ones [where to and not to smoke shabangs like these] and then she red the pupils list to see who's missing.And when she got to my name the guy in front of me stood up lol,aparently we have similar last names so imagine a guy rasing at the name of Ioana Alexandra LOL,we all had a moment of collective mocking and laughing,was sort of nice lol.BONDING I dare call it.

On an ending note my house looks like a platoon of drunk marines partied their night away here last night,at least that would exlain my weird Generation Kill related dreams from last night.

Now I'm off to prepare my note books for tomorrow morning while I wait for True Blood season finale ep to download and then on with the daily workout.

I am actually stupidly excited in front of this new school year.

Over and out.

I guess I could sing.I am that happy with my days.Yes mom pops her annoying head from time to time but me,being the Zen person that I am,I just let it slide *makes slide sign with hand*

I am so happy with how I act and react these days and with the new me I could do a a lil victory dance :D Ioanna is improving as a human being :D

*Mum seems proud with how serious I am about this school year and I am extremly happy about that and proud of myself at how I want to approach all this chaos coming at me.I am for once focused and determined! Certain books have nothing to do with that I sware [:P]

*In other words I'm completly ignoring "Eat,Pray,Love" because my long awaited "One Bullet Away" got here yesterday,or more like I went to the post office and demanded that they look for it,god knows what they were waiting for to bring it to me :|

I have the same feeling I had about Generation Kill.The moment I took these books and started reading I immediatly fell in love with how they were written and started learning stuff from them that will somehow and at a point will/would help me in my life. They only made me look up to the people and appreciate them even more than I already did.

*I went on a "healthy life" diet last saturday,that's what a home alone week-end made me do :| I am that interesting lol.And when I told mum about that she was surprisingly supportive,ofcourse she had to go all "oh thats good because you gained alot of weight" :| gee thanks.Maybe this time around she realised I wanted to this on my own terms and not becaused she urged me to.HA.And all is going mighty fine.Good healty food and daily exercising make me happy and feeling good.I can even say I think I started loosing some weight WOOHOO.

*Last friday I went and sow Leonard Cohen,honestly that whole concert gave me anoter point a view.Completly different and also made me a fan.I just love he's songs! Very powerful!

* *teenie squee* SEASON 3 OF THE TUDORS STARTED!! how great is that? I was seriouslly missing this.

*Oh yeah school starts on monday.and nerdy geeky me is actually looking forward to that o.o give me about a month to want to kill some teacher or class mate,this will all go away soon,probably but hopeffuly not,lol.

*I got a part in the Generation Kill Transcript Project! I am translator for Team Six.YEY.Should start doing my part,but need to put the book away first lol.

Now I think I'm pretty much done.

Over and out.
