Wait is ovah, wait is ovah! *clears throat* Excuse me, got a little excited with that song.
So, like I was chanting, here we are again, reading my blog! Or writing, as I am, but reading, as you'll be. Whatever, confusing, dumb.
For today, we have lots of things to talk about. Basically, I'll be writing for two hours and you reading for 10 minutes. Isn't that fun? ;)
We'll start after I find my planning sheet, just one second (like if that second would mean anything to You, dear reader. You can have a small pause, for the sake of ... sync?).
This will be a tough layout case, since I have so many topics from such a long timeline.
Teacher's layoff will be left for the next blog (tomorrow?), so let's start with Prison Break!
I love the show. It's just so ingenious that it gives me the chills. How everything is planned so well, but then the plan collapses into one factor that could not be influenced. It's always so exciting to watch it, since I never know whether they'll succeed with it or not, whether they'll get killed or not, whether they'll done with the job or not! So many variables.
I watched last week's episode yesterday, since I was on my way home from Kuopio (more of that later) so I couldn't watch it. And today I'll get to see more since it's Tuesday! Yay.
There's no character I'd love most, since for me it's plot over characters. But I can't deny that each character brings their own touch to the fragile weave writers work on.
As for seasons, the best are season ONE, of course. That's a really good one, very exciting. The other one I likes is season-going-on. It's different. I didn't like season 2 or 3 much, since they were pretty much repeat.
Next topic, feelings. Actually, the hiding of them. I had a talk about this with a friend of mine (yes, I am mentioning you again x)) and it was interesting. Shame I can't post it here.
Basically we talked about how you shouldn't always show your true feelings. It was her opinion, to which I disagreed. I don't know why, guess it's cause I've had to hide them too much :P
Guess it's basic psychology or something. Like, I'm trying to get the lost years by overdoing it? Hmm, could be. But let's not talk about this anymore, if you want, leave a comment with your opinion.
The film review. Sigh. I know what I'll do. The next blog will be a HUGE FILM REVIEW BLOG!
And why? Cause I've watched sooooo many good movies the past week. I'll have fun reviewing them and bringing up all the memories. What a great idea, once in a while I get them too.
Has any of you heard about Enya? I guess most of you I should have heard about her, since she's basically a ... well, legend? I just recently put two Christmas songs she has covered, and while I was browsing YouTube, I decided to listen to more of her music. I ended up liking it a lot.
So, this proves that my music taste range is wiiiiide. I like Lady GaGa and Rihanna, but I also like Enya, and then I like Muse and Metallica. Oh, country goes, too.
Christmas. I guess I should tell how my Christmas at Parkano went. Well, I played some GameBoyAdvance on the road, since there was nothing else to do (FF rocks!!). When we got there, the big black dog greeted us enthusiastically. So did my mother's aunt as well. We saw my mother's cousin's wife inside, and she told us her husband was resting his back. So we basically didn't see him till night.
Then we ... what did we do? Well, I'll just tell the big stuff. We ate Christmas food and then Santa (whoa, how easy it was for me to write Satan first, scary and alarming) came with his gifts! At first I got only two small packages and I was really worried I might not get anything else...
But then it turned out to be the best Christmas ever, at least if we take a look at just the gifts.
I got a Hipsutin (a thing to massage your head. It has these thin metallic "fingers", hard to describe, I'll give a link later), a name tag, a wallet, Muse's CD, a photography book (which only encourages to buy more equipment, with what money?! :D), candy, a ceramic vase (small one), a woolly shirt and socks, a belt and a scarf.
I also took some pictures there. Of people and of animals and some artistic ones. It was pretty poor actually, so far haven't published even a single one. Guess I should go thru them and check again.
Regarding photography, there's one thing that annoys me more than one can shake a stick at. Pictures of self. Those always suck, at least in your opinion. But mine, they're truly ugly. I just don't seem to have a single expression that wouldn't look stupid.
Dreams, I have written, but do you think I recall what I meant with that?
I guess dreams are interesting and fun. I wish I could do lucid dreaming, that'd save my days. But it's too hard and I just forget about the training (trying to breathe with your closed nose, switching light switches, looking in the mirror...) so I basically just remember one day that I was supposed to do this and that. Okay, messy, so let's move on.
Last blog I promised you I'd find you the link of Deadline, the Finnish shortie a friend of mine made as her diploma work.
And here it is. Enjoy! Comment if you want.
Now I'll tell you about my trip to Kuopio. I read physics the whole train trip, my head ached when I finally got there.
I got there like about four or five pm. We went to my friend's house, since it was already dark and cold and were weren't in the mood to go around the city.
We ate, looked at some pictures (including Spain pictures, trip to memory lane much <3)Gothica. They had all these wonderful movies saved on their digibox. So what-the-heck, we watched another one! It was Twelve Monkeys, starring Bruce Willis, Madeleine Stowe and Brad Pitt (with a totally different type of role, he was a crazy lunatic maniac crazy person :D).
Clock struck one am, and me and my friend's sister would've wanted to watch a third movie, but my friend was tired (and to be honest, I was kinda too) so we went to sleep.
The next day I woke up when my friend came to wake me up, just like ten minutes before my alarm would've started. We ate breakfast, I took a shower and then we went shopping! Oh, and since another friend of us lives near Kuopio, we had asked her if she wanted to meet with us, so we met up with her. We went to a yummy yummy café bakery, and I took two pastries! A brownie like (surprise surprise, but it wasn't better than my friend's brownie!!!) and a chocolate cake thingy. It wasn't more than four euro, so I was happy!
After eating we looked around clothing business, and I found nothing. I was also looking for shoes, but found those neither. We went back "home" and on the way we decided we'd go and rent a movie!
We played some Crash Bandicoot (it's really funny to play in a group, everyone shouting directions and gasping when you die unexpectedly!) and then we went to rent the film. We had trouble choosing, since I wanted horror, my friend wanted something lighter, something like a comedy, and her sister didn't have an opinion. I tried to yield a bit and offer a thriller, and it was okay for them. But in the end we went with an action movie: "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer".
It was good, like I had expected, since I had seen the previous part as well. One thing that bothered me was that one of them looked completely different. At least on the cover, and at the start of the movie. But at the end he had gained his normal looks.
After Silver Surfer we decided we wanted to watch another movie (actually just me and my friend's sister, since my friend was tired again). Despite all the counter-arguments, we started watching "Inside Man". It was really good, like Prison Break, I like to watch stuff with ingeniousness.
Next day, last day, we went to watch Avatar. I loved it! I was magnificent, the plot was really good (bringing up the selfishness and greed of the human race xD), actors did a good job and visual effects were great.
After the movie we ran to the train station. Ran because the train left in ten minutes *le gasp*
To our surprise, the train was 40min late. I started to panic, would my switch-train wait? We called my friend's mom, and she didn't have an idea. They didn't tell anything about it on the website. I tried to call my mom and granny and brother but no one answered, duh. Then we asked some people who were also going to Tampere, and they told us VR would arrange a bus from Pieskämäki to Tampere. A BUS. Duh. My friend said I could stay till next morning and that we could change the ticket. I said that it's okay, I'll go now, to not waste money on the ticket change. BUT, I didn't save any money, since I had to take a TAXI from Tampere to home. It was so late that there were no busses and my mom was too lazy to pick me up, since she had to work the next day. What a stupid end for an otherwise great visit. I collapsed to bed.
When I woke up, I had to bake a cake for the NY party. I had to go shopping the ingredients, since the ones my mom had bought had gone bad. When I was ready, I had made one chocolate pie thingy and one muffin-flan.
One night slept, it was time to get ready. It was time to leave for a party, yay yay.
We had lots of fun. We took long time value pictures with sparklers and they turned out very nice. Some of us even managed to write our names with the stick! We stayed up till 7am doing nothing specific and woke up at 12pm, so we slept 5 hours :D
Then we spent that day doing various things, and left the next day.
Now to the random stuff section.
I cleaned our fridge the day before yesterday. It smelled to mould, so I just had had enough of it. I emptied all mouldy fruits and tex mex crap, took the glass shelf thingies off and washed them and after hours of work, it was done (mom refilled and some other things, I would've done that too, but she came home and started to hustle).
Felt good after doing it, like I had done something useful.
My planningpen is missing! I can't find it anywhere (near the computer, anyway). It feels weird, since I've used that pen since dawn of time. Sniff.
I managed to read a book! Why is this big? Because I haven't read one since.. summer. I read Stephen King's Misery (in English). It was ... interesting. I even got tense at one point. It was so scary and evil. Really recommend it to everyone.
Last thing, I've bought Rihanna's "Rated R". It was a compulsive act. I just couldn't download "Hard" anywhere, so it was basically the only way to get it. And I don't regret it, it turned out to be a great CD.
It has some really beautiful songs. Photograps (ft. will.i.am), Stupid in Love, Te Amo, Cold Case Love and Last Song. There are also really brisky ones, Rockstar 101 (ft. Slash), Hard (ft. JayZ) and Wait Your Turn. The last one mentioned is really catchy, and my today's title is from that song (also the song I was humming along at the beginning).
The record had "Explicit" marked all over it. I understand that for some of the songs, but some totally innocent songs have that mark as well! Guess it's an all or nothing situation. Explicit is what the ending video is.
Bye!
