Moonspell – Scorpion Flower
by Raquel @ Friday, May 30 2008, on general
I was starting to feel disappointed after several Moonspell albums not to my liking – I’m a metal fan but I’m very selective, especially when it comes to growling in songs. I really enjoyed Wolfheart and Irreligious, and also Darkness & Hope to some extent.
Anyway, now they made this music, Scorpion Flower (which I am loving) for their latest album, Night Eternal. Not only is the song nice, but it features Anneke van Giersbergen who used to be the lead singer of one of my favourite bands, The Gathering. I might check out if the rest of Moonspell’s new album is as nice as this.

Back to my Life
by Raquel @ Monday, May 26 2008, on general
I’m back from a nice (yet tiresome) four-day weekend with a few close friends.
I need my ugly sleepy but before I head out to the confiness of my bed, I must leave you with a link a friend gave me just as he saw me online: Top 10 Bizarre Biblical Tales. Wow, and people talk about violence in TV and videogames nowadays…
Speaking of which, go read these Ten Golden Rules of action games. My favroutite one HAS to be number 5:
Breasts must be no smaller than a gorilla’s head:
Action games need a good dose of female objectification, because the genre is usually so full of rampant homoeroticism and men with bulging biceps that the player will require a healthy reminder that he isn’t actually gay.
Women need to be big-boobed and wearing attire completely inappropriate for the situation. Videogames may be considered by some to be an emerging art form that can be used for a variety of intellectual and emotional responses, but fuck those guys. They are probably gay, and we’re NOT gay because we play games with big tits. Now excuse me while I rescue my muscular and burly male partner so we can fight back-to-back with our enormous, phallic guns.
I always thought that wrestling was kind of homoerotic and the reason why lots of closeted gay guys watch it. I mean, semi-naked, sweaty, muscular guys grabbing and rubbing on each other? C’mon!
And on that thought, I bid you g’night.
PS – I’m thinking of buying a Toshiba Satellite A300-18A laptop. We are still in the flirting phase, but I swear I saw it slyly winking at me earlier on.
WoW Drama, How We Missed Thee!

Okay so I lied. I’m writing a new post on the weekend. And not about what we’re doing here.
Not sure if I ever mentioned an idiot that was on my WoW guild and played a Rogue? A guy who would simple never, ever shut up and who was annoying as hell?
No? Well, yesterday I was online just to chat with Rafa and get some of my Druid’s brand new epics enchanted, when I witnessed a very entertaining moment of World of Warcraft DRAMA! (I knew staying in that guild just to witness all the emoness and drama and whining had been a good idea!)
Juicy stuff (including some swear words – go me!) after the cut:
