VHS Bundle!

 


Got a bunch a VHS tapes from the headmistress of recovery! She and her husband were cleaning out at home and they had a lot of VHS tapes they didn't want - thankfully she gave some to me and I am loving it! Some of the tapes are for recording and actually came in optical packaging! This is sooo good

# MusicMonday - If Anything Happens to the Cat ♫ Live Concert March 14!

 


You read that right! If Anything Happens to the Cat will be going live Sunday March 14th on https://www.twitch.tv/kinkystartv at 21.45 UTC + 01 

Really excited to see them live! I do listen to their music daily, watch their videos on youtube and talk to my friend from the band - but this is beyond exciting! After their last album Kingdom of Roots was released, the band was actually just starting their tour and had planned tour dates in China as well - but unfortunately Covid happened, so they had to cancel their tour. I live far away from them, so seeing them live online is honestly the next best thing ♡ Cannot wait!! 

You can still buy their albums and shirts on their website https://iahttc.bandcamp.com/merch

Their music is also available on Apple Music, Spotify and Youtube. And you can follow them on social media as well ♡ Next to being great musicians, they are also really nice people who care a lot about their fans!

# SeriesSaturday - WandaVision

 


I started this series late ish, after a few episodes had already aired. When I did start it I was kinda skeptical because despite absolutely loving Vision, I kinda hate Wanda.. But this series changed that! Wow this series is great and it made me not only love Wanda, but also really appreciate Elizabeth Olsen's acting skills. The whole Agatha business really caught me off guard because I was busy being on board with the whole Director Hayward being Ultron thing! And to be honest I am not really that into the comic books, so at this point I am a little confused.. Is Wanda a mutant, a witch, both or neither? Also they questioned why her shield was hexagon shaped, but did they ever answer it? And the whole Vision vs Vision, I feel like that was weird and unnecessary unless they later somehow explain what happened after. 

Either way it was a great series and I am definitely gonna rewatch it many times! And of course drive my neighbours crazy by singing "Agatha All Along" in the shower at 2 am 



On a completely different note. I went looking at an apartment today since I am moving out of recovery soon. So earlier this week I saw a listing of an apartment for rent and I called the number. She didn't respond at the time but got back to me later that day. It was a somewhat elderly lady and she seemed very interested in renting to me. Then straight after she hung up she called me again, not recalling that we just spoke. We had the whole conversation one more time and then later she texted me saying she was truing to get a hold on me, if I was interested in seeing the apartment. I texted her that we already agreed that I was gonna see it Saturday (today) And then she said she had me down as a different name and number so I corrected her. Today I went there, said Hi and shook her hand. Then she freaked out, accused me of trying to break in. I showed her the texts and she said we had no such conversation - she was standing there though, outside this empty apartment waiting.. It was weird and uncomfortable. So I guess I wont be getting that apartment - I shall continue my search!

# FilmFriday - God Help the Girl & Sushi!



Been in a mood to watch this for weeks now! Also been in the mood to listen to the soundtrack but kept myself from it because I kept saying "no I'm gonna watch is tomorrow" - tomorrow took a few weeks! It is one of my favourite films ever and it makes me feel good. I also had sushi and then I honestly felt so stuffed I ended up in bed crying from a tummy ache.. too much of the good! Worth it though! 


Hint to any gift givers out there (in terms of me) - this soundtrack on vinyl would be a dream come true, literally the best gift ever!

# ThrowbackThursday - Trip to Salling Super in Aarhus ✌

 

I had week 6 & 7 off from school and recovery things - so I really wanted to treat myself to a shopping trip in Aarhus - which is 30 minutes by train from me. There is a fancy grocery store there that I just LOVE! I love the things you can buy there and the store is just so beautiful and aesthetically satisfying. Crazy expensive though! 

So I took the train there and I only had a few hours there, because I needed to make it back in time for a meeting here in Horsens - which I had timed perfectly with train times. Apart from this trip being a treat, it was also a little challenge (which later turned into a big challenge) Hopefully I will be studying in Aarhus, starting September, so I wanted to challenge myself by taking the train there, figured a few times back and forth and then my OCD and anxiety should be fine and well used to it. The trip there went well, low anxiety level and I made it to Salling Super aka HEAVEN! And perfectly timed as well, there was SNOW! 

Did my shopping, walked back to the train station in good time, so anxiety and OCD wouldn't take over. As I stand there looking at the screen with train times, over half the trains suddenly got cancelled! And then came the panic in my body and mind! Then my train got moved to another platform, but then they showed the wrong platform on the screen - now getting pressured with time as well, because it was arriving soon. we all walked back and forth a few times, everyone getting annoyed and the people working there got annoyed as well because because asked them a million questions. Finally I got to the right platform and we were told that a train derailed and our train would be a bit delayed. then they kept delaying it, leaving us standing in the cold, not informing us of anything and my phone died due to its annoying sensitivity to cold.. The train gets there and then we end up sitting on the train for ages as well - but at least I can charge my phone and inform the people I was meeting with that I couldn't make it in time. I was crying inside! A situation like this just really triggers my OCD and anxiety and I find it difficult having to deal with it alone. I did manage to survive it, made it home and when I was home I was exhausted! 

So the whole taking the train thing is so I can get used to it and convince OCD/anxiety part of my brain that nothing bad will happen - but the last two times I had to take the train something like this happened. So that doesn't help - thankfully it hasn't scared me off completely yet! I survived it and I can do it again! To be honest, before the whole train panic moment it felt really good - being independent 

And look at all the nice things that I bought! Very happy with the end result!
