Hello, just shortly, will write more about The National once I'm back :) So I'll copy-paste what I wrote to AintNoWowNow: "Managed to sort everything out and I'm going to BOTH Green Day shows, whee!! So I'm in Arras on Friday and Locarno on Monday! :D :D I'm back home on Wed morning! :) And of course, I'm super late packing, so it'll be short... So speak once I'm back, and have a great weekend in between!!" Many hugs!

We have the final meeting on Wed and that's when those papers about vacation duration will be handed out I think, so afterwards I have to go to him and ask if it's fine I'm not there on my two final days of work, since I'll then "find out" that Thu and Friday are indeed my final days (instead of just assuming it). So since everything still is very uncertain, I just really didn't want to add Switzerland to my events list in case I need to remove Arras from it. If I do have to do that, at least I'll have one show to add INSTEAD, which would be less sad to me than having Switzerland on the list for weeks now and then losing a show from it. Am I making any sense? XD Oh btw that's this one: http://www.last.fm/festival/3479746+Moon+and+Stars+2013 :D Also, I think I'm spending New Year's Eve in LONDON!! :D More about it once I know more, but the reason is a musical Tori Amos wrote and I desperately want to see! Hehe! That's all from me for now! Many hugs!

Green Day and Switzerland, well it's a complicated story. Me being there in Switzerland on Monday (aaaaah in NINE days!!) is pretty sure. The thing is, I STILL don't know until when I work. I hope until Friday (only five days left). If not, I'll just ask for two days off on Monday and Tuesday (July 8th and 9th) to see them and have the whole weekend to get there. But I do believe Friday is my last day. So since I won't need to tell the boss for Mon and Tue, I thought I could ask him for Thu and Friday off (and return two days earlier from my vacation in August) so that I could go to Main Square festival in France AS WELL :p So I'd be leaving home on Wed evening (yup, in 4 days, WAAAAH!!) and see them there on Fri and then travel to Switzerland on Sun and be at the show on Mon and be back home on Wed morning XD Complicated? I did sort of ask my boss for two days off yesterday, but since we're still not let known officially until when we work, I have to double check once we do find out.

Helloooo! :D "Since there are thrillion shouts from you" BWAHAHA yes, you said it right ;) Oh gosh, you know me, I can't keep it short :p I'm currently working on my review of both shows and also sightseeing in Berlin, with pics and stuff. Once it's done, I'll share it with you, of course :D When I write stuff like that, I share the very same thing with multiple people, so I don't know why you wouldn't do the same about Berlin and Brussels! :D Oh Anne! ♥ I was soooo glad to see her again and spent time at her place and if it wasn't for her, I wouldn't have been able to go cause the ticket wouldn't have arrived on time. And she said she might be joining me at the show in Berlin in October! :D I think it's so awesome how most of my friends here on last.fm either know each other or have talked to each other or something :D Oh and just in case I forget or leave or something, MUCH LUCK for Friday! It's your final exam ever? I still remember mine, the feeling afterwards is incredible :)

Just checking out your recently listened tracks, and hee Green Day! ^^ If everything goes well, I'll be seeing them in some ten days in Switzerland. Can not wait! :D Had SUCH an amazing time seeing them in Trieste! Also, Arctic Monkeys! They played here on the second day of the festival, I'm not a fan or anything but I kinda like them and wanted to hear them live. And then Berlin happened XD I'm not sorry of course though! Anyway, I wanted to ask you, you said you are possibly hoping for an Editors concert in Hungary, do you think more European dates will get announced? I fear that by "more dates to come soon" they only mean UK dates :/ While playing Zagreb at the end of the show Tom said something like "see you soon" or "hope to see you soon" and I don't know if I understood him right (or if it was my wishful thinking ;) and if by soon he meant possibly in October or just soon-ish in general XD I REALLY hope more European dates OTHER than UK get announced! :D

And I've loved the final two songs since the first time I've heard the record and I almost always have like a standout bit in my fave songs and for The Phone Book it's the "it ends with a kiss, It ends with a tear" bit that gives me shivers, and Bird Of Prey, so many, but particularly "to the birds" part, aaaaah! And I am SO GRATEFUL that I got to hear them live and just like aaaaah! All the album songs have clicked with me and I think it's really a standout record and it'll get the love it deserves ♥♥ Ok, I'm REALLY done gushing now XD As for Sziget, I'm sorry about "Will you be there during the whole length of the show?", I meant the festival XD So YAY that we'll hang out during the whole length of time! I think I'll be camping. I hope the shower situation isn't too bad XD I totally get about you not being able to travel. And am so sad that the situation is currently bad for you :( Who knows, it's still so far away, something may change until then! :D Okay, I'm FINALLY done :p HUGS!

And I know it's all matter of personal opinion and you can't tell others how to feel, but I am so sad by so much negativity towards TWOYL and I mean the record isn't out officially yet and they just started touring with it so we haven't even heard (some) songs live and it always takes time with any album to create personal memories to the songs and to hear them live and for them to become a part of your life, and there's old-time fans throwing in their fan card :( It just makes me feel so bad for the guys, who have been through so much and have poured their hearts and souls into it. And I'm obviously taking it very personally, but I can't help it. I really really REALLY love it!! Nothing, I do prefer the old version, but the album one has grown on me. Live it's STUNNING, really! I think I'm more sad about 2HS being mellowed down than Nothing, and I think I stand alone with this viewpoint :p But I mean I do like the studio 2HS as well. My absolute fave is probably Formaldehyde, OMG LOVE

As for a different sound, I know what you mean. I try not to compare. I just think of it as a new era and the songs having slightly changed. At times I do notice (like The Racing Rats, I can't help but prefer the older version because of a different guitar sound) but at the same time, it can't be easy on the new guys (particularly after having watched the documentary and their interviews) and they had to learn the back catalogue and kinda have to fight for approval, and imo the fandom doesn't seem to be very accepting. I do like that they're trying out new sound. I think that before The Phone Book, Tom introduced it last night by saying that it's time now for something different, and actually I'm really fond of the slightly country vibe on that one. From bits and pieces from video and magazine interviews, I've got the feeling they're feeling anxious about having been away for a long while and not being sure how many people still remember them, and then all these changes within the band

What you said here: "I just watched the documentary of TWOYL and the Nashville videos again and I'm so happy they continued without Chris but with Elliott and Justin! Although I miss the sound of the Rickenbacker.. it's really not the same, it's poorer for me sadly :S" I totally agree. I find it super scary that now we're finding out more details about the previous year (I believe that previous to the making of documentary, it was believed that Chris quit, right? Not that the others kinda voted him off.) and what a difficult time they went through and my heart really aches for them and I get so upset hearing how they were possibly close to being done. I know it's silly cause it was in the past and they came back and regrouped and I think they made a brilliant record so there's no worry now I think, but you know, just this possibility, I don't think fans were REALLY aware of how serious it all was a while ago. Just the thought of nearly having lost them for good, oh god :(

... and I was already really emotional from the show and really happy I got it, so I thanked him profusely and was like, gosh this means a lot to me, and he was like, I bet, I don't hand out the setlists to just anyone, you were the craziest one and sang along to every single song. Lol I'm not sure if it was meant as a compliment, but I don't care XD I had so much fun! Oh and also during the show Tom and Russell introduced Justin and Elliott and we clapped for them, and I LOVE that they're trying to make the fans accept them as equal band members, as we all should imo :) And I really love what they do at the end of the shows now where they wait for each other at the front and all put their arms around each other and take a bow together :') Like showing they're a five member band now and that they're all united together. At least that's how I look at it. They didn't use to do it in the past, right? I can't remember this bow thing from old shows.

Back :) One more thing about the banner, well they recorded the crowd for the broadcast on the monitors on the side of the stage, and those were the cameras by our national channel, and I remember that in the past, they'd play live performances later on the national TV. So at one point the camera got reaaaaally close to my friend and me and at first I thought it was zooming in on the sign I had tied to the fence, but it stayed there for like a minute and I'm afraid it was actually filming the two of us from like a lower angle you know :p If I end up on national TV and anyone I know sees it, it won't be good! Also, I bought the newspapers today dreading pics from front row (it's a good thing I took my sign out only after the press was gone ;) but they only reported about the previous night. So now I'll be fretting about if I'm in the newspapers until tomorrow XD And at the end of the show when the setlists were handed out, the security gave the first one to me (I think it was Tom's :)

But I just was so blown away by the whole Berlin experience and there's this whole thing with the changes in the band and the negativity towards the new album and me just having SO MUCH LOVE FOR THEM that felt the need to share it. So I don't give a damn if anyone criticizes me for it XD I raised it up during 2HS (it ended with 2 hearts, so I thought it was appropriate ;) and when the song was done, tied it to the fence.I THINK Tom saw it, and at the end of 2HS Russell went over to Ed and I may be imagining things, but I think he pointed him towards my sign and Ed nodded that he did see it :) And also, maybe it was my wishful thinking again, but I think I got a nod from Tom a couple of songs later. As for the setlist, I fucking adore Bird Of Prey live. And The Phone Book, you may change your mind when you hear it :) They weren't played back to back like in Berlin, first we got BOP so I was a bit worried we won't hear TPB (even though I do like BOP a bit more) so PHEW they did play it!

The "now raise your hands" bit, aaaaah!! Also I love that both girls on my both sides were REALLY into jumping, cause when you're crowded together, if you're jumping and the person you're pressed against is not, it kinda limits your jumping and makes it more difficult, lol! So like we jumped through the songs where you're SUPPOSED to jump, you know what I mean? :D Like the chorus of Racing Rats or when ITL gets all crazy or parts of Smokers :D Also, I don't know if it's only me imagining things, but Tom seems to be moving a lot, like at Berlin show, would you agree? I like when he goes all mental at the microphone and drags it around and dances with it, aaaah so good! Oh and I made a banner for them :p Veeery last minute decision, decided to do it on my train from Berlin back home and searched for a marker in Munich where I was exchanging trains, and spent most of my day at work yesterday working on it XD I know some people may find it silly or unnecessary or fangirly or whatever.

And even when they were on the stage, we were a bit crowded together, but still with plenty of space to jump (and jump we did ;) and you didn't have to fear being pushed out at all, and there was room between us and the second row. Totally not what I'm used to at my previous festival experiences, and I wish all the festivals could be like that :) Anyway it was a different show to Berlin, but equally brilliant. The setlist was more or less the same but they changed the order of the songs. I felt that the crowd was quieter in Berlin (which doesn't really make sense since it was such an exclusive show and you'd expect pretty much only the fans to be there) while here it was like paaaarty, hehe! It was pretty cold (and I promised Justin the weather will be much warmer than Berlin when I met him, oops ;) but I was hot and sweaty in no time! It's good to know that step aerobics did help build up my stamina, I jumped through pretty much the whole Papillon. I LOVE the long version!

HELLO :D OMG I only got two hours of sleep (a friend of mine and I were waiting for them after the show, in vain XD) but I'M SO HYPER!! I had a blast!! I was at pretty much the same position as in Berlin (I like to be in between the piano and the mic if possible) and a friend (you met her, she was with me at Sziget last year) was next to me, and her friend was on the other side of me, but he moved to the second row once the show started, so another girl ended on my other side, and even though she didn't seem to be a super fan, she sang along to some stuff and jumped and it was fun :) It's always awesome to be in between two fans, something that doesn't happen often at festivals. And they opened the gates only at 5 pm (I was there before 3 :p) and there were umm three bands playing before them with short breaks in between and they were on the stage at 9:15, so time literally flew! Also, the crowd was so super nice! There weren't many people at the front all the way until Editors.

I'm seriously thinking about Munich, Vienna and Berlin XD Maaaaaybe even Prague, that would be INSANE to see them in three cities in three days! I'm super lucky that I have Monday and Tuesday off on the days when there are shows in Munich and Vienna, and I can foresee a cold or some other sickness coming on the day before the Berlin show :p And have you got the ticket for Sziget yet? I hope you didn't have to pay the full price? Will you be there during the whole length of the show? Anyway, I'll shout more tomorrow after my show, and MANY HUGS!!

So let me just tell you, words can't describe how incredible it was!! I mean, if you watched the stream, you can tell what a mindblowing show it was. I could hardly believe I was seeing them again!! A really small venue, barrier was so close to the stage, it felt super intimate. The new songs are so incredibly good and blend in with the rest of the set brilliantly! Fucking loved the setlist! At the show I was so overwhelmed with the love for them and the songs and their connection with the crowd and the feeling you get when you see them live! They are amazing and I can not wait to share more about the show itself! And I got to talk to all of them afterwards, Justin and Elliott are proper sweethearts ♥♥ I'm grinning hugely and it was the best! :D

Hehe, I know, super sudden!! I didn‘t manage to get one when they went on sale, so I had to go on ebay, and only got one on was it Monday? But still didn‘t know until when I was about to leave work on Friday if the boss would let me go. Cause there‘s a holiday on Tuesday and I was sure we‘ll get Monday off too, which we did not, lol, so I had to ask for a day off... This show surely gave me headached and for a while I thought I bought the show and train tickets for nothing... But the important thing is that I am in Berlin now!! Staying at mandoneona‘s place and we‘ll soon go out so I‘ll spend today exploring Berlin a bit, and then queuing time tomorrow morning! I can‘t even begin to describe how excited I am!! And I‘m back home on Tuesday evening, go to work on Wed and directly from work to INmusic after noon. So it‘s a super busy schedule and I‘ll see them twice in two days! I‘ll shout aaaaall about it once I‘m back! Take care and many hugs!

Also, I wanted to wish you much luck with resisting not listening to the album ;) It surely is easier for you if your mind is still processing your wonderful show and is busy with other music. If you do cave in, well you're not the only one :p I won't spoil you or say anything. I have listened to all the early versions of some songs, but I can't tell you anything about how they sound on the album ;) You shouldn't check Tia's shoutbox though, cause I'm discussing it a bit there. Oh, another thing I won't spoil you about if you don't know already, there was a sad announcement about Doctor Who fandom today, don't know if you read about it? It was quite shocking to me and saddened me greatly and was the bad thing in an otherwise great weekend :( And one more thing, you shared your review with me, if you want to, I can send you mine about my Green Day show, but it's quite lengthy and with many pics, so I don't know if it'd be interesting for you. i think that's all. Talk soon! Many hugs!

"Yesterday I checked the accreditation.. they closed it on 31th May :((" Oh no :( :( Is there any chance you may still get it? I mean yesterday was the weekend. You could say you were out of country or something. I really advise you to email them early tomorrow and see what they say. It would be SO AWESOME if you could go! Maybe they will allow you to get one a bit late? Sometimes there are cheaper tickets that get resold close to the start of the show, if I manage to find one, any chance you may make a last minute decision and still go? I am keeping my fingers crossed for you that everything works out tomorrow and that you may still get the accreditation! The train really isn't expensive I believe, and you'd have a place to stay and basically you'd spend no extra money other than the trip and the ticket. Please let me know if you managed to do something about it! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.

I better not say how much it'd cost me. I haven't even put it all down on paper myself. But the setlists they're playing are phenomenal! And I can't stop listening to them ever since the show, I'm still totally in GD mood. And I HAVE to see them one more time, and hopefully be closer this time around, cause I was quite far in Trieste. And It's the only doable date for me for this summer, and my only choice to see them. Plus, I LOVE traveling by train and I'll see a lot on my trip and will have some time for sightseeing too and will see a bit of France :) Nothing is decided yet, I'm only still trying to figure out if it's cheaper to buy separate train tickets or InterRail and how to organize everything. But I'm SO hyper about it and really hope I can make it! There's also another festival in Italy where The Killers are playing that's a bit difficult to get to, and I maaaay go there too, but it's really uncertain so far... I'll let you know if anything happens with that :)

"And how are you? :)" SO GOOD! I had Thursday and Friday off and did so much, listened to so much music, I'm doing those "setlist parties" events for Green Day now that I usually do for Tori and U2 when they tour, I went to the cinema to watch Oblivion, Star Trek (BENEDICT!! ♥♥) and Hangover 3, went to the shelter, memorized some Green Day lyrics for the show, listened to TWOYL, spent a lot of time on YT as usual, caught up with my shows (only two more eps of Broadchurch until it's done, it's so good!) and so on. Fannish stuff mostly :) And how are you Doing fine? :) "Did you find another show of Green Day that is reachable?" Ha, depends on how you define reachable ;) The only doable show (I'm mostly limited by my work) is in FRANCE! Almost on Atlantic coast. And since I don't fly, it'd take me three trains and over 24 hours to get there! It's a festival, but they get their full time slot of two and a half hours. It's the Main Square Festival where Editors played last year.

I loved this part of your review: "There’s this saying the men can focus only one thing. Well Greg just showed his middle finger to this stereotype." Haha! I also love that you managed to talk so many people into going, and that they all liked what they saw! it really sounds like an incredible evening! And you got to play on the piano where they played? Wow, so cool :D I'm so happy for your experiences! As for Editors, well at first I also said I wouldn't listen to it. Then when it was out, almost everyone on my flist who listens to them was listening to it and I was like GAH, gotta RESIST! Then I saw so many TWOYL related posts on tumblr, and the whole official forum was discussing their music too, and I caved in. I preordered the album and was just too curious. I promised to myself that I'll listen to it only a couple of times, and only on mp3 player so that it doesn't get scrobbled. But "a couple of times" turned into more than 10 listens, and now I officially gave up on trying :p

Hi! :D Whee, a review of the show! I LOVE reading those! :) I need to comment on it a bit. "Well, no need to say it was love at first listening." Isn't it amazing when you listen to something for the first time and it's all casual and you have no expectations, and then you're blown away? And when occasionally a band or an artist you thought you'd "just check out" ends up becoming one of your new musical obsessions? It's pure magic! ♥♥ "I was sad a little bit that Poppy Ackroyd didn’t come" Do you know why? And awww it sucks! It was a good thing she wasn't the only reason of your travel! I can imagine what a great atmosphere it must've been, I also read in Tia's review that there was a glass ceiling above you. So the crowd sat around the piano? All around it? How many people were there? How did you decide who gets to sit where? XD Greg sounds incredibly talented, and like this was really a one of a kind show. I like when you're not quite sure what to expect from a show :D

"you have huge numbers so I won't ever beat you I guess xD" Not at all! We almost have the same amount of shows! And I'm older :p Plus I really don't spend that much money otherwise (other than gym and cinema) and have an average monthly income, so it makes all these crazy travels affordable. On the other side, not being able to take days off at work sucks and I at times wish I could go back to carefree uni days when occasional skipping of classes was easy :p "I'm so happy I could invite these many friends! Never happened that this number of people joined me." It'll be a freaking PARTY :D It felt like that for me the last time I saw Editors, in Slovenia, basically the front row were Italian fans most of them I saw before, and it was awesome! "Oh for the headphones: they are not new just it was shocking to hear Greg's album with them :D" I need awesome headphones like that! I remember being at my friend's place, and she has these great speakers for her computer.

Hello :) PLANS ARE EXCITING!! Aaaah I love music! :D "wishing you good luck to reach them!" Thanks so much! You know, when you were deciding about Brussels, I totally totally knew how you felt and was crossing my fingers hard for you! I could identify so much with the crazy, hands-shaking, completely urgent rush of HAVETOADDMORESHOWSRIGHTNOWAAAAH! Hehe! And it's like, if I can afford it, even if it means having no savings left, no matter! Also, the distance and how tired we'll get plays no role. And I love love love when you get this crazy idea of traveling somewhere and at first it's just desperation to see a band another time and then it all starts coming together and the pieces fit and you actually end up going and then you look back at those early days of planning and are like fuck yeah I made it! That's an insanely good feeling! And I'm so glad everything worked out for Brussels for you! Sometimes I think it's good I'm afraid of flying, cause if not, I'd be even harder to stop XD

I'm totally not giving up on seeing them though. I also really really really want to see Editors in Verona on Sep 1st and it all depends if my friend would agree to go for a weekend trip to Italy and drive back home during the night, cause I can not miss out work on Monday morning. Otherwise, totally easy to get there, and I can afford it and all that, but that one stupid thing separates me and my beloved Editors :/ Anyway, I'll keep you updated. It's nice to know I have your support and that you'd do the same if you were me. My best friend is like, gosh calm the fuck down and be reasonable XD Who have you seen the most times, I mean who is leading the list? For me it's still Tori, with Editors and U2 sharing the second spot I believe. When there's lots of improvisation or changes in setlist, it always makes for a rewarding show! It's so cool there will be NINE of you there, whee! Super fun night out with friends! Nothing beats that :D

Awww THANK YOU! Oh gosh, you know what it's like when an artist knocks you off your feet and you least expected it? I mean I did know they have cool shows, I have concert DVDs and watched YT videos and all that. And it's not even that I was that big of a fan. And then I saw them live and like OMG! "but then I was like.. oh, she's not coming with Greg to Budapest.. so.. let's see the dates :D" Haha, yes, exactly! I actually checked the rest of the tour (Trieste was only the second date in Europe) even before I went to Trieste, "just in case". Didn't believe it'd get to that. Haha, I was so wrong! I wish I had counted on them being so freaking charming live, I could've been at a show right now! They're playing in Belgrade, which is only six hours away, and I work in the afternoon tomorrow. I could've only missed one day of work. Dammit! Now my only other chance to see them live is possibly this little town in FRANCE, and it'd take me 24 hours and three trains to get there XD

Hello darling! Feeling fine? I left a shout to the-honey about my show on Sat so I'll copy that part: "Hi girl! How are you? I'm back from my show and I had an absolutely fucking amazing time! :D All shows are amazing and they always make you feel so happy to be there and live music is awesome and all that, but sometimes a concert is even more and you end up being like, wow, blown away. And that's what the show in Trieste was like. Just jaw-droppingly good and just such a great fun! So so so so glad I went, despite my doubts and fears, which proved to be totally unjustified anyway. I'm currently working on trying to figure out if I can possibly see them once again during this summer XD" And I saw that she is also attending the Greg Haines show on Wed! How awesome! I bet the two of you are super excited! Do you have any other friends coming with you? I also wanted to say that I LOVE your pics from Brussels on your tumblr!

Hee, so it means I was right on time with the email! It seems now that there are TON of files (and it's WITHOUT the Confidentials ;) but most of them are very short, and yet give great insight into the show. And some can be skipped, marked by []. Hope you understand my markings. I TOTALLY know how you feel about Nine. That's how I felt about each of them and yet learned to love each of them after a while. I'm totally crazily in love with Eleven right now and can't ever imagine him being gone ;) I'm glad you're enjoying the show :D It takes a while to get used to silly special effects, but trust me, on rewatches, you don't even notice. And the show is pure brilliance and totally deserving of the fans' love :) Anyway. Wishing you a lot of fun watching! As for my show, so so so excited!! I'm off now for a walk with T, and then I think I'll go bed and watch a concert DVD :) I haven't been able to sleep properly for days anymore! Thanks for your safe travels wishes! Many hugs!

I have been sent here by the_honey: "Tell Mystrea he's not the ~first doctor, he's the ninth ok xD" So, yes, he's the ninth Doctor ;) You probably know they are usually referred to as Nine, Ten, Eleven. Or the Doctor. NEVER Doctor Who ;) There's Classic Who (pre-Nine) and New Who, starting with Nine and the ep called Rose where we meet, well, Rose ;) That's where the show went through a sort of "renewal" in 2005 and Russell T Davies (RTD for short) took over. And the time before Ten regenerated into Eleven is known as RTD era and the last few seasons (with Eleven) are Moffat era. So the first season of the RTD era is labeled as S1, even though there have been many, many seasons and episodes (and eight other incarnations of the Doctor) before Nine and 1.01 Rose. I have to admit I haven't watched a single ep of Classic Who and am not too interested in it... Ummm, what else? You know by now what a Tardis is, and what companions are :) As for the rest, enjoy the ride! :D :D

Hello girl! Thanks so much for your shouts! I have like a thousand things to do before I leave for work in a bit over an hour, so I can't type much (hope work may be quiet so I'll reply more in detail from there) but I just wanted to say OMG SQUEE for you watching Doctor Who!! (I'm assuming starting with Nine, when we meet Rose, right?) cause it's one of my fave shows EVER and I have rewatches regularly and I may have another one this summer cause I just miss good old times so much! Anyway, it's brilliant once you get used to it, cause yes, it is kinda weird XD It has a lot of charm and a lot of heart though and I really really hope you enjoy it! Also, I totally forgot to wish you luck with the exams and forgot to say that in the end, and I'm so glad to hear that it's behind you now! :D I hope you did amazingly! Also, I really really hope that despite Brussels, there's still a tiny chance you may consider INmusic :) Have to leave now, will shout more later!

How are you otherwise? Life is good, I'm spending a relaxing Sunday at home, surfing and listening to the music :) I may go to the cinema later. Have you been to the cinema lately? saw anything good? The two movies I recently saw and really enjoyed were Oblivion and The Place Beyond the Pines, have you maybe seen them? And it's not so long until my summer vacation anymore, which is always a good motivation. Whee! I'm off now to go out with my dog before lunch. So have fun and speak soon! Hugs!

I thought to maybe try to find some hostel somewhere relatively nearby if the price won't be too high, cause then we could return back from Sziget together :) Also, one more bit from shouts to her: "Also, how difficult is it to get to Sziget by public traffic? I mean usually I try to find a hostel either near the train station or the concert venue, but since I'll be staying for a while, I'll prefer something as cheap as possible (with normal bathrooms though ;)" Ok that's it. Sorry for TONS of questions! I still have plenty of time and the usual sources have always been helpful, and don't stress out if you can offer no concrete help when it comes to actual hostels. But since you'll be there too, knowing of your plans will be of much help :) Also, I wanted to say that I saw on your tumblr that you watched Broadchurch. It starts airing on national TV this Thursday! I'm super interested in it since my best friend loved it. Also, David Tennant! :D

"basically it was a bunch of bricked cubicles in a row, like six of them, each sharing the left and right wall, which is horrible enough cause I hate not being the only one there and not being able to lock up lol XD But not only that, but each shower cubicle SHOULD'VE HAD a curtain of its own, but instead there was ONE tiny disgusting curtain for the whole row!! So the three of us went to take showers late in the night with no on else there and had to stand guard... Ugh! I shudder thinking about it! :/ I have to check the usual websites (I usually use booking.com for hotels and hostelworld.com for hostels) and I'm aware that you probably can't help cause I too don't know places to stay in my own city cause I've obviously never needed them ;) but if in any case you ever had a friend visit Budapest and report happily about his/her hostel experience, please do share :)" And in which part of the city is your apartment? Far from Sziget?

"...and the price was going up since Monday I believe. I didn't check if they were available online, but I'm always vary of printed tickets and prefer to have proper ones. So in the end I called my mom and sister for advice and just got the five day ticket. So it seems I'll be arriving on Tuesday I guess (or maybe a day earlier too, depending on where I'll stay and how much it'll all cost) And staying until Sunday or Monday. So it'll be a week long adventure! Whee! Also, I wanted to ask you, do you know of a place to stay in Budapest by any chance? I'm basically looking for a cheap basic hostel accommodation." You remember the hostel from last year. Which was REALLY cheap, and kind enough to let us stay there after that cold cold night XD Hehe I still have pics of us on those stairs waiting for the morning XD But that hostel had SUCH awful bathrooms...

Hello girl! So it seems you'll be leaving for BRUSSELS in a week, how about that?! :D Have you figured everything out? You said you'll be traveling alone? I'm sure you'll have an amazing time, and will find some time on the side for sightseeing too! I haven't seen much of it when I was there but enjoyed it a lot! I actually wanted to ask you a few questions about Sziget, I have to find a place to stay. So will you be staying at your usual place in Budapest during Sziget or traveling back and forth? Will you be there at the festival on all five days? Did I tell you I bought a five day ticket after all? XD I'm gonna copy a part of the shouts I left to the-honey now, hope you don't mind :) "I ended up buying the weekly ticket. I went to the shop the second to last day of early bird tickets and basically planned to buy three one-day tickets, but my Eventim didn't have tickets for Saturday of all days! I have no idea why! The guy said that he doesn't think they will be available later"
