My vacation is going... mmm, okay, I guess. I've been to Liseberg in Gøteborg, Sweden with my little sister, my big sis and her "beloved one", DAWW! It was cool. I even got to watch a bit of Bolt at tho hotel we lived in. We had our very own suite, and lucky me! We had a cool TV! And fortunately we didn't have to pay to watch the movie. Not that we watched the whole thing, just to the scene where Bolt and... Mittens(Nyaaaa~! XD) are captured by the mean dogcatcher! D:< *gasp*
Yeah, the movie is cute. Bolt is one cute puppy/grown up dog, Mittens is... skinny! and the hamster is adorable. Blah, blah, blah.
ANYWAY!
The "evil soldiers" are cool. Super cool. In the big chase thing at the beginning, I was cheering for them all the way. I didn't even notice Bolt and... that girl(whatever her name is) until it was over. *laugh* And I LOVE the design! Sexy black schi-fi outfits, *melts* So yeah, I guess I've become a tiny bit obsessed.
I've started on a book called "The Gospel of Lucifer" It's thrilling, to say the least.
*nervous laugh* No, I'm not Satanic. It's written by best-selling Norwegian author Tom Egeland - Maybe, just maybe, you've hear of him? Or read one of his books? They are translated into 19 languages...
The book is the newest in a serie, and they centre around a guy called... look, I'll just throw up some facts from Wikipedia(makes it so much easier):
"Tom Egeland is a Norwegian author. Egeland's most famous novel is "Circle's End", which deals with several of the same topics as The Da Vinci Code. Egeland's book was published in 2001, two years before The Da Vinci Code.
European readers and critics quickly noted some striking similarities between the "Da Vinci Code" and "Sirkelens Ende" ("Circle's End"). Like the "Da Vinci Code", "Circle's End" involves an ancient mystery and a worldwide conspiracy, the discovery that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene, and an albino as one of the central characters. In both novels, the main female character turns out to be the last living descendant of Christ and Mary Magdalene, and the daughter/granddaughter of the last grand master of a secret order.
Many European readers have speculated that Dan Brown had plagiarized Tom Egeland's book. Since the Norwegian novel has not been translated into English, it is generally assumed today that the similarities between the two books, although striking, are coincidental.
The author himself, Tom Egeland, has in numerous interviews in European media dismissed the claim of Brown's novel plagiarizing his own novel, stating that the similarities just show that he and Brown more or less have done the same research and found the same sources.
Egeland's latest novel, "Guardians of the Covenant", and the 2001 bestseller "Circle's End" have been acquired by the British publishing house John Murray and are scheduled for publication in English from 2009."
And here is his Bibliography:
Stien Mot Fortiden (Ragnarok) (1988)
Skyggelandet (Shadowland) (1993)
Trollspeilet (Troll Mirror) (1997)
Sirkelens ende (Circle's end) (2001)
Åndebrettet (The Ouija Board) (2004)
Ulvenatten(Night of the Wolf) (2005)
Paktens voktere (Guardians of the Covenant) (2007)
Lucifers Evangelium (The Gospel of Lucifer) (2009)
He has his own website, in case you're interested(yeah, big time!): [link]
And that was all.

He's the cutest little ottsel in the world of PS2. Right after Tess, that is!
Daxter is my favorite ottsel, it's just that Tess is so much cuter...
Yeah, he looked awesome in the trailer! But I seriously hope NaughtyDog will make a Jak 5... Because,
IMO, this game looked.... well, if not bad, then different from the others.
I didn't get quite the same happy feeling I connect to the Jak series

Anyway, it's curious, because I had your same feeling... I just hope it won't be an awful sequel.
Waiting for the autumn...
