I like pampering myself with life’s little luxuries. You know, like sitting in an armchair and reading a good book that you have bought yourself with joy- by this, I mean a book that you have purchased for yourself, to experience and not to display on a coffee table. Or like listening to a piece of music that touches the very bottom of your heart. Music is extremely important to me.

Whoops.

LOL THIS IS WHAT MY FOLDER LOOKS LIKE

I can’t live with that. I need to hit CTRL+F to find the title of the gif D:

it’s still messy, I need to make folders based on the fandoms and characters and emotions…

I have names for my gifs. If I didn’t, I’d go crazy. I have too many gifs not to have them organized.

I thought about naming them, but then I saw the amount of gifs I had and did something else: I created a powerpoint file with them ALL, pretty much like a database, except, this one moves XD

kaitoleen replied to your post: ARGH! THANK YOU VERY MUCH SLOW AS A SNAIL INTERNET! I JUST LOST MY BETA SPOT AT MYHOWGARTS TODAY! I JUST STOOD THERE WATCHING YOU SLOWLY OPEN STUFF WHILE EVERYBODY ELSE HAPPILY GOT IN. THANK YOU MYHOGWARTS FOR HAVING A TIMING SO SHORT IT WON’T WORK WITH SLOW INTERNETS. GO DIE IN A HOLE YOU TWO

No way… you can actually lose your spot if you don’t login everyday? That sounds ridiculous. What kind of idiot makes these rules? I hope i misunderstood.

I lost my chance of winning a spot today. The other days I missed the time, today, I missed the spot thanks to a slow internet…

We only get to login in August or so, but we can get a chance to be beta testers and login in March. I was attempting to win my chance… I can’t get over the idiocy of the situation.

Thank God it wasn’t a matter of life and death… -.-‘

The true identity of Ludwig van Beethoven, long considered Europe’s greatest classical music composer.  Said directly, Beethoven was a black man. Specifically, his mother was a Moor, that group of Muslim Northern Africans who conquered parts of Europe—making Spain their capital—for some 800 years.

In order to make such a substantial statement, presentation of verifiable evidence is compulsory. Let’s start with what some of Beethoven’s contemporaries and biographers say about his brown complexion.:

” Frederick Hertz, German anthropologist, used these terms to describe him: “Negroid traits, dark skin, flat, thick nose.”

Emil Ludwig, in his book “Beethoven,” says: “His face reveals no trace of the German. He was so dark that people dubbed him Spagnol [dark-skinned].”

Fanny Giannatasio del Rio, in her book “An Unrequited Love: An Episode in the Life of Beethoven,” wrote “His somewhat flat broad nose and rather wide mouth, his small piercing eyes and swarthy [dark] complexion, pockmarked into the bargain, gave him a strong resemblance to a mulatto.”

C. Czerny stated, “His beard—he had not shaved for several days—made the lower part of his already brown face still darker.”

Following are one word descriptions of Beethoven from various writers: Grillparzer, “dark”; Bettina von Armin, “brown”; Schindler, “red and brown”; Rellstab, “brownish”; Gelinek, “short, dark.”

Newsweek, in its Sept. 23, 1991 issue stated, “Afrocentrism ranges over the whole panorama of human history, coloring in the faces: from Australopithecus to the inventors of mathematics to the great Negro composer Beethoven.”

And yet Western “scholars” want you to believe that Beethoven looked like:
