Hello everyone!

Excitingly enough, I’m NOT gonna rabble about Phineas and Ferb, because, I’m not even at home!

Nope, you heard it right. Without Paula even knowing about it, we planned our own little evil scheme with me telling her I couldn’t make to come to celebrate her birthday, but, as a surprise, I showed up anyway! Gladly, she was glad to see me.

It was actually quite some time since we, the four of us, Me, Martine and Paula got together and we have had soooo much to catch up on. We’ve got some rad days coming up here, so I’m gonna wrap this up early.

See yah!

For like the first time ever, I blog rather early in the day. I’m really just sitting and going through yet another episode to make sure it’s fine, and the pace is going FAST by now. In just a few moments I’ve managed to clear out two hours, so if I’m lucky, I’ll get all the time I need. Hopefully.

But you know, I’ve never studied as frequent as I have at the moment. Looking at the same episodes over and over again, and look at the same show the whole day, it does, and you never thought you’d hear me say this, bores me, and because of the frequency of the marathons that have been… Yeah. So instead of just staring at the TV, I read a book at the same time, making sure to keep the screen in the corner of my eye in case the screen goes black, and my ears open just to listen in case the sound disappears.

Reading my journalistic books truly inspires me to write. I’m not sure why, and it might be this sole reason that makes me blog this early, well, that and me being a bit bored with watching the show. I have a big plan on a report for Hårdrock.com, and I hope I can pull it off. I’ll plan it tomorrow with my partner in crime, my platypus, and then start doing all the email work that has to be done. We will also do the last Italy stuff tomorrow.

Oh well. I should return to “Unfair Science Fair” and my book. Tonight will be filled with marathon, packing (going away tomorrow!) and.. other stuff.

Doofenshmirtz just got his second black eye. He calls out to me! Doofyberg, I’m coooomiiiing!

Sorry.

After changing my tactics about getting this done quickly, I’ve finally found one that should be decent. I’ll be looking at the episodes that I have recorded but are unlisted, and if they’re fine, I’ll just delete them right away. Finally I get it.

But really, these have been the most unproductive days ever. So while watching the episodes I’ll make sure to write some work-applications. Might be good to do so, you know, me quitting school and everything. Hope everything works out.

But okay. The only thing I need to worry about at the moment is the episodes. To make sure I get enough space for “Meapless”. If it airs. God how disappointed won’t I be if they don’t air it.

Okay. I have nothing interesting to write about ‘cept this… Italy is coming up, I guess that is interesting… Soon soon! Just a few weeks now. Whoop Whoop!

//Sara

Wow. Now I drifted away again. Sorry.

Well, there’s been a Canderemy marathon this weekend. I caught some of the episodes I was still looking for, but as I try to look through all of my episodes before Wednesday to do a major clean up, I’m sort of fed up with Phineas&Ferb at the moment (Never thought you’d hear me say that, huh?)

Although I have a lot to do. I have to write to one job, apply for two jobs, do some schoolwork, prepare Phineas&Ferb, trying to pull the last string together for Italy and… clean. Yes. All of this I have to do before Wednesday. But they have an Animazing with Phineas&Ferb on Wednesday, so I guess I could use that as a reward for a job well-done. Ah well.

Sorry for boring you out. I really just wrote this to distract myself from screaming out in desperation. I don’t necessarily have to look at the screen to notice if the screen goes black or it loses its sound.

But then again. Currently going through “Blackout!”. And the screen is always black. Perhaps I should pay attention to this one.

Okay. So that about me trying to at least stock entries to upload didn’t work out very well. I should get started with that whenever I get some time over. Which I should any day now. And while thinking about it, I should really start studying a bit more, you know, pick up the pace.  And about that, I’m starting to stock up on non-archived Phineas episodes. I need to archive them before this weekend.

Yes. I haven’t blogged since last weekend, so well. As you know, it was a Gravity Falls marathon last weekend, which was… good. I mean, it’s the same episodes I’ve seen so many times now. We only have seven episodes in Sweden right now (Tourist Trapper, The Legend of the Gobble Wonker, The Hand That Rocks Mabel,  Headhunters, Dipper vs Manliness, Double Dipper, The Inconviniencing), or well, at least what I know off, and well.. making a two-day marathon out of those isn’t… all that exciting. Phineas&Ferb, despite having seen almost all episodes, it’s always a bit of roulette regarding what episodes that comes, you know? Even though you only base it on Season 3 for instance, it’s like, 20 episodes to choose from.

This weekend, it’s another Phineas&Ferb marathon. This time it will focus on Candace and Jeremy, much like it focused on Isabella and the Fireside Girls last time. This marathon is slightly shorter, but it will sure fill me up on some of the episodes I’m missing, like “Canderemy”, which is the only episode I’m absolutely positive they’ll show. If they don’t, I will seriously ask what’s wrong with them.

Once I got “Canderemy”, for a second time that is, the only episodes I lack from season three is “Meapless in Seattle” and “This is your backstory”. As far as I’m concerned, these episodes are so far unaired in Sweden, so I’m just (in)patiently waiting for them.

I also figured I’d go through all my recordings, once and for all, without speeding them. To check up on what episodes are incomplete or broken, or to make sure that I truly have all the episodes that I say I have. And preferably, I’d have this done before this weekend. But I tell you. It’s a hell lot of episodes. But I’ll manage.

I must.

I better start archiving. It’s not like I’m gonna start tomorrow if I’m not starting today.

I haven’t been blogging for a few days. And that is really only because I got nothing to blog about. And I’m not certain if it’s really a good idea to blog if you have nothing to blog about. I mean, I must be the only one in this world who, at 2am sit and watch a two hour marathon of Phineas&Ferb. It was a good one though, I think it was only two episodes I previously had. So, good catch.

I started playing The Sims again. I know how stupid it sounds, but I tend to have it a bit in periods. Like, I play it every day for a while, and then I have a little break (a week or so).  But I never really know what to do. My golden family, Cullens, is bugged like I don’t know, so I can’t play on them, since I’ve loaned a friend one of my expansionpacks. And since Cullens is such a superfamily, I don’t have the patience to play on another one.

I wrote this shitlong entry now about what families I got in The Sims that I have at least a little patience with, but that did instead inspire me to write an entry alone about what The Sims families I got at the moment, that I have the patience to play on. But I’ll save that entry for a day when I don’t know what to write about. I think I’ll start do that. Whenever I feel inspired, I’ll just write an entry and save it, as long as it’s ageless.

Okay. The marathon is done now, sadly, it ended earlier than I had hoped it would, I wished they’d have had “Busted (At Last!)” included as well, but I guess Animazing just KEEP geting shorter. Went from three hourse to two, and now to one and a half. Goddamn it Disney, I rather watch Scaredy Squirrel for three hourse than your sitcoms. Some of them are good, but Lab Rats and Kickin It ARE NOT. I’m just bitter because I was so close to scratch of season one.

And now I’m rambling about nonsense. I’ll just clean my DVD.

Good Night

So well. Since I don’t really do anything special this week, I figured I’d do a bit of hunting for some Phineas episodes, you know, as I got the time. Today was the first day where I really “engaged” in it, and I’m finally, at this late hour, sitting down to check what episodes I caught.

I’m still only on the first recording, but my eyes are big and my heart is warm as I realized that my first catch is not only episodes I was hunting, but one of them was also one of my absolute favorites.

Which one?

No, not The Chronicles of Meap. But “Phineas & Ferb and the Temple of Juatchadoon“.

Seriously. The first time I saw this episode was when we were watching a “Where’s Perry” marathon (a marathon that was before it) and I started to record just to see how much time we had left, and then I realized it was a new episode I hadn’t seen, which was the Temple of Juatchadoon.

Juatchadoon is an episode inspired by Indiana Jones, where you follow Ohio Flynn and Rhode-Island Fletcher in their hunt for the Juatchadoon-amulet. It’s an alternate universe, if you like. I don’t want to spoil too much of the episode, but if you like Indiana Jones I think you could probably enjoy this episode. I certainly do. But then again, I love the alternate universe episodes. And the song “Don’t Look Down” is, despite it being short, one of my favorite Phineas&Ferb songs. Seriously.

I do wonder what the hell happened in the Swedish translation though. All of a sudden “Perry The Platypus Theme” got new lyrics. Haha, what the hell.

Oh well. I’m about to scratch “Agent Doof” and “Temple of Juatchadoon” off my list and keep looking for other episodes before going to bed.

Good night everybody!

EDIT: Okay, so now I’m done with all these recordings, a bit slowly as I read in my schoolbook at the same time, but I can proudly tell you that I also caught two of my other beloved episodes, “The Beak” and “It’s About Time”. Both of them pretty hard to get, but now I can scratch them off too. So. Four episodes in one day huh? This is promising.

“Lots of snakes and spiders, wish this tunnel was wider, wish we had a guide here, but don’t look down“

… is probably something I’ll be saying a lot later. But right now, it feels like it. And yes, this is another boring Phineas related entry, sorry ’bout that.

But as you know, DisneyChannel’s had these marathons running, and I must say the turn out was pretty good. I caught four previously not recorded episodes, and I could scratch about half my list of all the episodes I needed a back up on. And since the re-run of the marathon is still running, more episodes are to be crossed off.

My friend asked me today in the stable how I could be watching Phineas&Ferb for six hours, or more importantly, chase the episodes like this. But to be honest, I think that’s the fun part. To chase the episodes, to collect them. To see that soon enough I’ll have every episode of that season and so on. I really wanna finish off as much as possible before Season 4 starts, since it’s been hell watching out for these. And considering I’m starting to be sick, I’ll have a lot of Phineas watching to do. And there’s an Animazing marathon with Phineas & Ferb on Friday, so everything’s working my way, I guess.

But now I’m tucked in my new Phineas-sheets, with my Wreck-It Ralph cup, two bags of crisps and no less than FOUR of my favorite fanfics being updated (one of them even got multiple new chapters!). After this heavy week, and not to mention, this heavy day, I do WELL deserve it. And I have a big day tomorrow, so I think I might need to relax a bit with these to get my mind straight.

And oh. This weekend, DC will be hosting a Gravity Falls marathon, both Saturday and Sunday. Guess who’ll be glued to the television? That’s right. ME. And maybe I’ll actually see the episodes in the right order, at last.

Currently preparing for the Phineas&Ferb marathon that’s gonna happen this weekend. Two six-hour long marathons will be running, and they are focusing on Isabella and the Fireside Girls, how that’s now even going to happen, it’s like, what, four episodes or something they are focused on? Oh well, I guess we’ll see!

I still have some episodes I have yet to record, and I also have a list over episodes that are recorded once already, but which I need to get a second copy on. I always make sure to have at least two of every episode, just in case. Except from that damn “S’winter”. Because, I went from not having a single one of that one, and now it’s my most recorded episode. And the sneaky bastard made sure to pair up with episodes I have not recorded otherwise, forcing me to keep every single recording of it. Sneaky, sneaky S’winter.

But yes. I used to hunt episodes every day, but now, when I’m down to about five not-recorded (since the downstairs recorder decided to go russian roulette on the recorded episodes and deleting whatever it felt for) it feels unneccessary to wait every day for the episodes. In those times, these six-hours marathon are fantastic. Even if you may not catch all of the missing episodes, you usually catch at least one or two. Or more importantly for me, I can scratch of A LOT on my “only one” list. Would make it so much easier.

And I’d really wish to be done soon. It’s March now, which means I have to keep my eyes open for “Meapless in Seattle” which are gonna have its premiere now. And soon enough I hope Season 4 will begin too. My Sweet Ride ❤ Travlota-Ferb ❤ Yes. I know I know.  Worst part is, I’m probably gonna be so excited for “Meapless” (since “The Chronicles of Meap is my favorite episode) that I will be SO disappointed. But hey. It’s Phineas, it’s Ferb, Isabella, Candace, Doofenshmirtz, Perry and on top of that – Cutonium, Meap, Mitch and Baloony. Can’t be better.

Talking about Phineas and Ferb… look what I finally got today!

For those of you who doesn’t see, it’s bed-sheets! Been looking at these for ages. And no, I’m not too old for them. I still use Barbie and Pikachu sheets. So beat it.

Okay, I’m finishing up on the preparations now, so I’ll have to finish up this blog too.

I really wish my days were more productive. That I did more than just going up and doing… nothing. Oh well. Today I at least started up with my music-business class, signed up for an exam and prepared to go to work tomorrow by making tomorrows breakfast today. I truly make my life sound so interesting by doing this, huh?

But okay. On the other hand, what I did actually do was to count my cash savings. They are starting to become quite a deal, which is perfect now when we’re going to Italy and all soon. I don’t need to be scared about almost drenching my account when booking, because I know I got a lot of cash to get by once we get there. I kinda hate to travel in the middle of the month.

Like, when you get away, it’s already been two weeks on last months paycheck, and you’re travelling just before you get your next, which leaves in an “in-between” spot where you are, economically, the weakest. Or at least that’s how it is for me. And while checking on my foreign currency, I only had about 2,50 Euros lying around. Damn. This might get difficult. Nah. It’ll be fine. The plane home from Milano is extremely cheap, and the hotel is pretty cheap too, especially if we decide to share it on three people instead of two.

We will do just fine. But I want you to meet someone.

While I was lying in my room, trying to do my schoolwork, my eyes landed on my musical hamsters. You know, these mechanical hamsters that dances and sings? My eyes fell on one in particular. The “Happy Birthday” one. Or as he is now, my Schlager-Hamster.

For every broadcasted show of Melodifestivalen I went to, I have one of these blinking pins. And at some point I started putting them on this hamster, probably because of his convenient “belt”. I was taking him up now for the first time in four years to stick on my newest addition to the collection. It’s a little sad though, they’ve changed the design a lot since last I got one, and the one is just so big and… weird, if you like, next to the others. But I guess I’ll get used to it. We’ll see.

But here he is, at last, the Schlager-Hamster!

But now: Gravity Falls and BED.

Good Night y’all!
