This just looks like the rerun

Good night, readers!
Today's a special day since it'll be the last day before I present my blog!
You read right, tomorrow, as the second of our English class, I'll tell about how and why and what I did for the project.
I feel a bit anxious because I have no idea of what I should say. Guess I'll just improvise, no point on making a plan and then forgetting everything! Anyway, if I wanted to plan something, I'd have to write it down as well. That'd mean I'd have a piece of paper with me, which means I'll hide behind it the whole time. That won't give a good picture, will it?

I have yet another presentation tomorrow. I'll have to talk about Stephen King's Misery. The teacher said I should mention about some higher symbolism and teachings. I really don't know what to say, I think I'll explain all kind of psychological phenomena that happened through the book.
It was a real good book and the teacher told me to actually try to sell the book. With such a good book that won't be hard.

As for me personally, I think I've gotten a grip. I'm not having that many mood shifts anymore and it's been almost a week since the last one.
Hopefully it'll stay this way. And somehow I feel like I mentioned about this before? In the blog before this one? No? I hope not.

I've completed my independent physics course! Now I only have to get through the test and I'll be done with it! I have a good feeling and I might be able to get an eight or a nine from it. I won't even wish for a ten since it would be unrealistic.

Tomorrow will be the last senior dance practice! I mean, we do have few more extra trainings, but this is it for the official ones!
I'm really going to miss the dance, I've started to like it very much. We always have so much fun! Except the one time that I felt down, thanks to a stupid thing that shouldn't have affected me in that way.
We're going to do everything better this last time and try to make our dance look cool! It'll be hard just because there are so many of us!

It was freeZING cold today! I had to freeze while waiting for the bus... THRICE! Can you believe that? I mean, I understand that it's cold, but geez, why can't the bussed come a bit earlier? :P
I didn't even remember to take me thick gloves, so me hands were dead-cold!
I'll put ten shirts on tomorrow and twelve pair of socks and five underwear!! That'll have to keep me warm.

M poke project failed. Simply because the maximum showed pokes on your home page is 20. So I can't get to 30. Sigh. It was fun till it lasted.

I haven't practiced the flute for a long long long time!!! My teacher's going to be mad at me tomorrow, but what can I say? I have been busy (for real this time) and I have forgotten it a few times. It's not hard, since I keep the flute in my room and hang out in the living room.

Guess that'll be all for today!

Just a warning:

Poke me!

Popopopoke me! I've got this new addiction on Facebook!
It's poking! I need to be poked and I love to collect pokes! Now at the moment I have 15 pokes added up. My goal is to have 30 of them at the same time!

I'm talking with my friend on MSN at the moment. About nothing more or less than the pretties girl I've ever seen.
It's not made up beauty, but natural beauty! She's perfect in every aspect. The way she walks, her hair, her skin, her face and her eyes!
Even her personality is so much different from the basic "I-think-I'm-pretty-so-I'm-effing-annoying-and-selfish".
This is enough of the matter since I don't want to sound like a stalker (which I'm not!!! seriously!!)

Today's been pretty much awesome. I've liked every moment even though I felt like nothing could get worse in the morning (and nothing did get worse, in fact, better all the way till now!).
I had fun in English class, Finnish and Literature was okay (I didn't get to present my book, but I wasn't ready to; and I almost finished my editorial), we had fun watching Markus on Biology class (Markus is the guy who teaches us things through funny videos!!) and had lots of fun dancing! I've started to really enjoy it.

The Finnish sketch series was really funny once again on Saturday!

Finnish XFactor wasn't that good. It was boring and it had a slow motion. They only showed like five auditions in the premiere! Annoying. They blabbered about the judges, who cares? I want to see the actual people!

My feelings are actually starting to become even again. Fortunately. I in a total outrage on Friday, for obvious reasons. Hopefully I'll keep the line straight and won't make it a parabola!

I've taken GaGa on my repertoire again. She still rocks my soul. A small break can be good sometimes.

I took some funny pictures of myself yesterday night! In the first one I shake my head and the picture was taken with a long timer value! This makes my head look weird, but funny. I modified the colors a bit and made it black and white. It's real classy.
The other is less classy and more scary! It's me as a zombie. My eyes blank (not photoshopped, but creepy natural if I want to), took the colors away and make it darker than normal.
I really liked both pictures. The first one has motion and the second one emotion. No pun intended.

Tomorrow I'm going to the gym and I'm going to have physical examination! I don't know what it will include, hopefully the basic stuff I've done at school. I hope being sick for a while and not going to the gym won't affect the results too much. Wish me luck!

On another note, I've written over 15 000 words in this blog in all. This means I don't have to write anything anymore. This might either mean I will start writing even more, or that I might start writing even less -

Damn phones ringing all the time!

- hopefully the latter option.

The exam week is approaching at an alarming speed! The first test will be on Friday, and I'm nervous since it's Finnish! I hate it!! It's about argumentations, theses and those stuff. I hope I don't screw up and that I get at least a 9 to not spoil my average!
Other than Finnish the exams should be just fine. Maths will be easy since I've take a grip and I understand, English should be easy as always (hah, still, I've never gotten a 10), physics should be okay since I think I understand and I'm doing it independently so a smaller grade won't bother me. Biology will hopefully go well, too, since I'll actually read for the test!

Now, I don't know what else to tell you. I'll see you some other day.

Oh. I got stood up today. I was supposed to talk to my friend on webcam. She said she'll brb, and I haven't heard from her since then.
Classy :P
I know she'll read this and feel guilty. Ha. If she feels anything, she's a cold, emotionless person (but I still luv her <3, GEEZ MY HTML-CODE EPIC-FAILED!!! YOU BETTER APPRECIATE THE HEART!!!;))

Buhbye darlings who read this! See you.

And to not leave you cold, watch this! Kinda funny. Fail blogs rule!

Floccinaucinihilipilification

I don't know how to start.

I think there's something going on over here in Finland. Why, you might ask. Because a lot of adolescents have gone missing.
The article I read tells about this girl from Ruovesi who went missing over a week ago.
She was last seen at her school from where she had left in middle of class.
Now they say she was found in a place they had searched before, just in a spot they hadn't gone through. I mean, why wouldn't they look the whole place instead of leaving an area out?
The police couldn't find her passport after she went missing, so they figured she would try to cross the borders.
However, now that they've found her (dead), I don't know whether they found the passport of not. There was no mention about it.
It seems it's not a crime but they are still going to perform an autopsy to find out the cause of death.
I really wish it was nothing more than just another teenager tired of her life. Because the other option would be that there are even more murderers out there.

My little brother is devious. He told my mom he was going to a friend of his (male), so my mother took him there.
Instead of wanting a ride all the way over, he wanted to stop at a day care center. My mom was a bit amazed by this but did as he suggested nevertheless.
After she got back home, my little brother's friend called her (he always calls someone, even me sometimes, if he can't get in touch with my brother) and my mom realized my brother wasn't at his friend's.
Guess where he was? At a (girl) friend! It seems that my brother didn't want to tell my mom he was going to see a girl. I don't know if that was because my mom would think he's "dating", or just because ...
Who am I kidding? There's no other option. Is my little brother dating? I hope not, he's way too young for that!

Other than that, I've got nothing else to share.
I've watched three TV programs today: Flash Forward, which was exciting and things are getting interesting; The Vampire Diaries, which just came back from a winter break and is culminating fast; and a Finnish soap opera episode I missed yesterday.
The next episode is coming in 10 mins (from the time of writing) and in it many characters will leave the show! I hope they don't overdo it.

I've also watched YouTuve videos of various kinds. Communitychannel had uploaded a video and I liked her as I usually do. It was about packing for trips and these weird money pockets some people use because they think their money is safe in them.
I watched Shane's two new videos. One was a collaboration with a YouTube singer. They went to a mall and asked people what they thought about near-death- dieted models. The other was a basic-Shane making a fool of himself (I like when he does that, it's kind of funny).
Hotforwords explained from where the word amour comes from. I wasn't really interested in that word but the video was funny.
I watched Charlieiscoollike's three or five day old video which I stumbled upon. I'd try to spot him so I could point at him and shout "I FOUND YA" and get a pin. But I live too far away.
Instead of staying in the comedy section, I jumped into science! I didn't plan it but the thumbnail was too interesting! The video was about making a magnetic liquid. When you put a magnet in contact with the liquid, it turned into something similar to a spiky shell. Then you could move it and touch it and it would be all the same. Really intriguing.
Oh yeah, let's not forget RayWilliamJohnson's video. It was about this kid that jumps into a merry-go-round that's in motion and gets swung out right away. Then this other kids laughs at her. LOL. Then there's this redheaded boy that everybody picks on because of his red hair. He angsts a lot about his life and well, RWJ makes fun of him (as he makes fun of everyone).

And I did all this while I was supposed to be studying physics, maths, biology and social studies.
I'll have to study tomorrow. And that'll mean I won't be able to see my friend! Even I had promised I would do my homework in time. Guess I'm just a hopeless case.

I remembered something worth mentioning. We went to watch a musical play with our Finnish class. It was called "The Year -85" and it was really good. I won't get more into the plot since it was pretty long and a lots of things happened. Basically, it's a love story that doesn't end well. It's filled with known and some less-known Finnish songs and lots of humor!
Too bad I seem to not be able to relax in the theater. It's the second time that my mind does something else than concentrating on the stage in this kind of event.
Before the play we went to eat to Rax with my friends! We ate a lot, talked a lot and had a lot of fun! Go us!

I'm hopefully going to have another interesting video conversation with a friend tonight. I hope it won't be as weird as the first time!

Now, go and confess your feelings! You know you'll regret if you don't.
Buhbye darlings.

I Am Weasel!

Oh my good. I'm excited!
We got the results from the Biology Olympics back! And guess what? I was the fourth best of our school! Which is really good if we take in count that I haven't even had all the courses!
I got 14 points out of 40. This is also good because the questions were really, really hard.
All of the questions had four options from which choose. Two were easy to rule out but then you had to figure out the right answer (no room for guessing, no pitypoints!).
Also, the questions were really weird. There was one that included sheep and belching. So go figure. There was really no way to know the answer! Geez.
Besides from that, I've got no good news.

I didn't do my social studies homework for today's class. Why? Because the teacher didn't say she gave homework! But apparently she had said so and surprise surprise I hadn't heard!
I'm dumb. So for tomorrow's homework, I've done a real good job. She can't whine now.
I also solved lots of mathematical problems! They were about derivatives of Euler's number and function composition! It's really fun, especially when you understand and when you're able to solve lots of them exercises :)


I hate maths class. I hate English class. I hate school diner. I hate dance.

Hm. That's it for today. I still need to count how many words these blogs have in total, so that I can write either longer blogs or keep going as I have.
I really hope it's the latter option.

Byebye, see you later!
Unlike usually, I won't give you a music video. Instead, you'll get this absurdly intriguing illusion!
Enjoy :)

Watch it, it won't take more than two minutes.

Rated, N

Today's blog will be once again a bit different than usually.
You'll get to read about a good album that I've bought.
Rihanna's Rated R.

I do not own any photographic material this blog might contain. I do not intend to break copyright laws.

Music samples linked to YouTube. I do not own the material and I am not responsible for any copyright infringements the video uploaders might be committing.


Rated R
Rihanna's newest CD album consists of 13 tracks. So far there have been two singles, Russian Roulette and Hard.
This album has a variety of musical styles. Even though the music is R&B and pop, the album contains traces of hip hop as well as rock.

Lyrically speaking, it could be said that Rihanna's lyrics have "grown up". She's no longer singing about partying and going out.
The lyrics can be a bit grim at some points and she doesn't refrain from using profanities. This is the reasons why there are two available versions of the album. The explicit and the censored version.
Most of the songs talk about love, lost and failed relationships. This could have something to do with her ex-boyfriend assaulting her, even though it's highly circumstantial. Any lyrics written for her after the abuse could point at it.

Rhythmically some of the songs (Mad House, G4L and Wait Your Turn) try out something new.
It's called dubstep. It's basically a genre of electronic music, which is used to bring dark and grim vibes to the songs. I won't go more into it since I don't really know how to explain it. I'll sound either too knowledgeable to be legit or it'll look like I've copied it from somewhere. I'll give you the Wikipedia link if you want to read more about it (it's actually kind of hard to understand, even for me, and I have studied music for years).
I thought of presenting one or two songs of the album. Then I started to think which I'd present and I came up with a problem. I couldn't decide. Guess I'll tell about each one of them.
The songs will be listed in the order they appear on the CD. Enjoy. I'll link you to each song so you can listen to it if you like.

1. Mad House 1:34
This song is like a small intro to the album. There isn't much lyrics. There's a man voice that warns that the material might be too much to handle for some and that he suggests to turn away now.
"To those of you,
Who think you can take it, we say
Welcome to the Mad House"
The rest of the song is Rihanna chanting "Come on, come on, come on in".

This song is interesting. The beat is cool and the melody is catchy.
The lyrics could refer to a baseball game and as we well know, baseball has some sexual connotations. I would understand it that way; she's singing about waiting your turn. In love, in a baseball game. Especially the parts in which Rihanna chants "The wait is ovah" are really, really catchy. You almost have to sing along.

Oh, WYT is actually the only song in this album in which Rihanna herself has played a part in producing.

3. Hard 4:11
This song would be irony to her boyfriend's abuse. Maybe he thought he could bring her down? But naaah, she sees you aiming at her pedestal, so she think she's got to let you know... That she's hard.
Nothing will bring her down.

"And I want it all
It's gonna take more than that
Hope that I know you got"
This song features a pretty unknown name (at least for me) Jeezy. I thought he was Jay Z (I think I've mentioned it was Jay Z in one of my previous blogs, so I'm sorry for the misunderstanding) but it's not. The featuring artist is Jeezy.

Stupid in Love tells a story about a girl and a boy who have broken up. The girl still has hopes up for the relationship and gives the boy chances to make it up. But each time the boy ends up cheating and telling lies. Nothing works out and the girl ends up "stupid in love".

5. Rockstar 101 3:59
If nothing more, Rockstar 101 has a hell of a beat! It really blows your mind.
The lyrics aren't that great. As the name might hint, the song is about being a rockstar.

"Big city
Bright lights
Sleep all day
Up all night"
That's basically the song in a nutshell.

The song features the great legendary guitarist Slash!

This is the first song I heard from Rated R. I really liked it from the first listen on.
The plot has been a mystery for me and I haven't really figured it out yet.
This is probably one of the darkest and gloomiest songs in her album.
It tells the story about two people who are playing the Russian roulette and the thoughts that are going through the head of the protagonist.
The thing that bothers me is whether the protagonist dies or wins the game in the end.

7. Fire Bomb 4:18
If I had to choose a surpriser from this album, this would be it. I really didn't like this song when I heard it first. It was... somehow dull compared to the other song's beating and pounding rhymes.
However, now that I've heard it a few more times, it makes sense. It's a beautiful slow(ish) song.
I really don't get the lyrics though. Actually, I hadn't read them like "really" read them until today (since I had to recall what it said). I should spend some time decrypting it sometime.

8. Rude Boy 3:43
Lyric-wise I don't like this song at all. It's kinda, well, profane. And suggestive, if you look at it that way.
But the rhythm saves the song. I don't like liking Rude Boy, but I can't help it. It could be just that I want to like them all songs. Guess I could be blinding my sight and neglecting the suckyness of this song ;)

9. Photographs 4:46
My favorite number one! I started to like this song the moment I heard it. The lyrics are perfect, the melody is perfect, and the lack of a pounding rhythm in this case seals the deal.
All the proportions seem to be carefully thought of. I really like the song: it makes sense.

This one is a cooperation of will.i.am and Rihanna. will has written part of the song and he raps a strophe that completes the song. I just can't find a bad side to this beautiful piece of music :)

10. G4L 4:00
Gangster FOUR Life. It took me a while to understand why the song was called G4L. One time I heard her say it and it just popped to my head.
Guess I'm just dumb.

This one is awesome, the rhythm, to be exact. It's a good (I don't know, really, I just like to think it is) example of how dubstep can be used! The drums in the verses are enchanting.

"I lick the gun
When I’m done
Cause I know
That revenge is sweet
So sweet"
That part is God smackingly glorious, seriously. The last two words are like... a chromatic descend and I just have to love it! So the beginning and the end of this song are extraordinary!

11. Te Amo 3:28
Latin rhythm! Me likesss it! Te amo means "I love you", most of us know it. But the guy that is the protagonist of this song doesn't know that!
I'm really attracted to the plot of this song since I can't figure it out! This one is a mystery for me, going besides Russian Roulette.

"I said te amo,
would somebody tell me what she said?"

It's like the guy is undecided or then I missed something. I need to check it out someday. And I still don't know why Rihanna sings as a guy.
Without doubt a good one. And different from the other. Special, spectacular and delightful.

A sad love ballad. How can it get better? Well, this song is about cold case love. A love that's never been solved, that's how I think about it. The lyrics would seem to back me up.
I don't know what to tell about this song. It's really sentimental in an expressive way.
The rhythm is pretty basic, since it's a slow song. The melody goes pretty high at some points but it's splendid nevertheless.

Jesus that YouTube version is grotesque! You need to hear the real version!

13. The Last Song 4:16
Ironically, The Last Song is the last song! I know.
I think the lyrics compare the last song to love. I can't explain why I feel that way, I might be totally wrong.
This is the last song and therefore it's probably the slowest. Compared to the other songs it has less words and it's in other ways also a bit less complicated.
And that's just fine, it's like a soft landing. You don't want to break your neck falling, aye?
"But it's time to turn up
the last song
ooooo
The last song
ooooo"

Cut the Laces of Life

Hiyas!

You feeling fine today? I hope you are.
What to hear something funny? I've read my English grammar book today. From cover to back.
I don't think I learnt anything since things never stay in my head for too long.
What I did notice, though, is that I might be using way too much punctuation. I might have to go back to the earlier blogs and check them out.
After all, this is my English project!

Apart from being a nerd, I went to the gym today. I was feeling a bit sick (my nose started to ache) after doing some aerobic exercise so I decided to take it easy. I only ran 15mins, then did my anaerobic work out and left. Of course, I had to go to my gran's and eat pancakes after sporting. What could be better?
I might be going there tomorrow to make up the lost minutes. I thought of going for a jog nearby but I'd love to jog in company. I'll have to try and get someone to come with me.

Hmm. What else? Well, I did try to write some lyrics.
I thought they were good since well, I liked them. But then my mom read them... and said, nothing. Like she hadn't seen them at all. Sigh. I hate when she does that! It's so discouraging. It's been like that my whole life actually.
If I come home with a 9+ from a test, she would be like "Oh, that's okay".
Either she says something that can be thought as "this is shit, so I won't say anything to not hurt his feelings" or then she starts saying stuff like "hmm, if you could change this bit here... and then maybe edit that phrase there... and maybe use some more color over here."
I love hearing constructive criticism but I don't want to hear what I need to do in your opinion. That's not helping me, that's doing my job. Nonetheless, I don't need to be perfect. Average is okay, unless you rub it in my face.

I need to edit some pictures I've taken of the white nature that prevails out there.
I still don't know if I'm going to publish them anywhere. There are a few possible options but I'm not sure if they're good enough.

I think I might be catching the flu. My nose has been running for a few nights and my head is ... hefty... and stuffy. I hope I'm okay tomorrow because I don't want to miss a dance class.
Otherwise we may fall behind!

I took part of a contest whose price is a Nexus One or an equivalent amount of cash on PayPal.
I hope to win this contest since there's probably no other way I'd get a Nexus. Sigh.
How material am I? I just... like it!

Sigh. Stupid MSN.

My dad is probably coming home soon. At least that's what I infer from seeing my mom browsing in all kind of websites that sell tickets.
Hopefully he comes soon so that he can help with house chores.
And hopefully my sister comes to visit us soon. I think she'll come either before summer or in summer.

Now, farewell.

I've published this one on Facebook already but I feel like embedding it over here as well.
It's just so sweet and sounds funny. How very creative from the person who made this!

Studay

Today's been my studying day! Therefore Studay.



I woke up at 11am, ate breakfast and read the newspaper. Then I went into my room and basically stayed there till 7pm.
I only came out to take a shower and eat every now and then.
All I did was physics. I know it sounds ridiculous, but I just don't understand! It's like... half of the exercises are marked with a "?". Hopefully I'll get a notebook from a friend so I can get some help.
Either that or wait until Tuesday so that I can ask the teacher.

So, I thought I'd do something different today. Instead of writing long, I'm going to LIST long!
I'm going to give you the list of stuff I want to do before I die. It might not be complete, since I have never wrote everything down. Maybe I'll add things to it later.

Take in count that most of these are more or less meant to not be taken seriously :)
But don't forget that most of them are to be taken very seriously.
That doesn't make sense, but that's me. I should add, "Make sense" to the impossible section ;)

I've divided them into categories. Music, film, arts, writing, professional, cash, politics, travelling, relationships, school, random, being good, strikes and vain. Hope you enjoy!
I've struck over the ones I've completed. So far I haven't got that many, but hopefully the number of over struck goals will grow when years pass by!

It's just amazing how well it's been done. The amount of work put into this must've been crazy!

Pattern Goes On

Sorry to inform you, but I've got no sample for you yet.
I'll still do a small blog just to cover up my screw-ups. Which I just failed.

Anyway, I've got the tracks of the album planned up, but I'm not going to reveal the title of the album nor the track names.
Just because everything is possible till I close the first song. The title isn't satisfying me, but it's descriptive. And that's about all it is.

At this point it seems there will be eight tracks.
After the lyrics of each one of these songs, I'll try to give you a basic idea of the melody and rhythm. I'm no expert (been studying music for years, but really crappy at it) so I won't be able to record any, let alone write the music sheets!
It's just going to be me writing about the feeling of the song and the basic... well, idea.

Like I told you in the latest real blog, this album's tracks are going to be related.
The first song is going to start the story and the last one is going to end it. Each one represents a phase, none of which are locked. Like I've stated, anything can and lots of stuff probably will change.
And this is why I'm not going to give you the first song yet. I might start on Saturday so that it'll end on Sunday.

Now, good night. And I kept my promise. Kinda. I wrote a blog about this project, today! The day hasn't changed yet ;)

And this is a mess. I'll blame the sleepiness.

Heartless But Not Dead

Hello dear readers, I'm back!
Where did I go, you might ask. Well, I was supposed to take a small break to prepare my surprise... but as you might've noticed, I don't keep my promises.
This time it wasn't a matter of me being an idiot and doing it on purpose, I just got a little bit too excited and promised stuff that I couldn't have done, even if I'd had more time.
Instead, I'm going to do various other things that should be enough to compensate. For example, I'm going to show you few of the pictures I've taken that I've liked the most.
There's going to be a surprise that will last for the whole week, and I hope it's enough to make you forgive me. I'll not tell you what my original surprise was, just in case I want to make it happen later and surprise you! Sorry :)

We had a debate at school! Not like me and my friends started debating, but it was an assignment from our Finnish class. Briefly, me and four friends of mine formed a group and divided into two groups and a Spokesperson. The spokesperson was me, and my friends decided to debate on whether Formula One Racing should be banned. My opinion is "yes", but I'll not start debating it now cause I have other things to talk you about (and I shouldn't have an opinion since I was the spokesperson ;)).
The reason why I brought up this topic is because of the debate that took place after ours. It was about whether Finland should utilise death penalty as a method of punishment (for breaking the law).
The thing that surprised me was that when it was time to vote which side had won (= which was your personal opinion, basically) most people voted for "yes" to death penalty!!!
I was like, what the heck? How easily would they kill? We've spoken about this already, so no need to start debating this either, just wanted to let you know.
If you, however, want to ask/comment something, PLEASE leave a comment in the comment section below! I'd love to answer your questions and counter-argument your arguments! ;)

Now onto smaller things. First, I've taken the path of becoming heartless, cold, emotionless and hard. Mostly for the fun of it, we'll see how long till I give up.
Today it was easy, for I am made for this.

There's this song... and watch out! Cause it gives me THE chills and goosebumps! It's not from fear, it's more like a feeling of climax! It's really weird, I don't know why it happens.
It could be just that I love the series so when I hear the tune I get excited! But still, it's not my favorite TV show (but one of them) and none of the others does this same thing! So I'm stunned and happily surprised. I hope my heartlessness won't take that feeling away.
I just had to try whether it happens even if I won't watch the show, and it certainly did! Creepah!
Lemme know if same happens to you :)

Last thing, I've decided to try politics! I'm interested, because I like it. I like debating, I like having power (not one of the main reasons though), I like helping people (which I hope I would do if I ever get to a government position) and of course the publicity! Hopefully you'll get the option to vote for me one day ;)

Now, before the final zenith, I'm going to present you some of my greatest pictures!
At least in my opinion. Be gentle, do not troll >:|

First, I'll introduce you to Mr. DropShot! It was hard to do, and I had to edit it a bit afterwards. But just the color, everything else is legit.

This one was taken of pure interest. I had no idea it'd turn out this cool. There are some minor things like the focus and composition, but nevertheless I like it. A lot.

The last one is a conceptual capture that I planned beforehand. The idea is simple. Someone wrote "I loved you", to then trash it. That person might've thought that was enough, and it sure seems to have been made from a sudden rush of feelings. But what is the paper doing here, opened up, for everyone to read it? Was it really over? Could that person really forget what had happened?

Go check out the rest of my work if you're interested. Just follow the links in one of the pictures.

And that's it. No more for you, at least not today!
Let's move on to my little project. I'm going to write the words for an album.
I'll write the first lyrics to a separate blog, today. I hope you enjoy it, the idea came to me this pretty same day. I was walking to the gym when I got this idea: "why not make an album, the songs of which are related to eachother?". And that was enough to start my imagination!
Please do check it out. I'll link after I've gotten it done.

This song comes from my fried. She was like, "Oh my GOD, NIILO! Have you heard this song?! It totally rawks, you should listen to it!"
I was like, "Sure, just after I finish eating my burger." I didn't have a burger, just too tired to care.
"Oh MY god, Niilo, you HAVE to listen to it, it's soooooo cool and it's in Spanish!"
My interest shows a small hint of life, but then drops back dead. "Just a sec, I'll check it out later."
"NIIILO, I haven't even told you the song's name! You're not interested at all!"
Really? Now you figure? "Umm, give me the link, aye?"
"*friend gives link*"
---
I didn't listen to it right then. I was bored and annoyed and I can't really remember why I didn't listen to it, but I didn't. It was days later. And I liked it! It's in Spanish, so I'm sorry you won't understand a thing. There is a version in which there's some English subtitles, but they're not the best possible. Side note: I found the subtitled version ;)

Surprise Is Coming!

I won't write long today. I'll tell you why only if you stay with me till the end (believe me, it's not going to be long).

I had put the wrong date on my planning sheet yesterday. It says "9.10", when it should be "9.01". It isn't that funny, but I had a laugh. I would have thought I confused the year, not the months.

I spent yesterday night watching videos of the history of words! There's this chick in YouTube who makes videos in which she explains the origins of words.
It's really interesting (to watch) to learn all these things I didn't know! You knew "mistletoe" comes from "dung stick"? Hah.

Do you guys have a list of things you want to do before you die?
Cause I sure do. Unfortunately it's not written down, so that's a new goal for me. Write down everything I want to do before I die! Then I can strike 'em over as I grow up and get more experience! I may share few later this week.

The show I was talking about yesterday was incredibly funny! :D
The people were just right and the stuff was so random! The improvised jokes were so stupid they were funny!
Definitely going to watch the next episodes as well!
The only bad side was that the program was a little bit too profane for children! That doesn't have to do anything with me (duh, why would you think that?) but it made me feel uncomfortable watching it with my little brothers.

'K, now to the surprise! I don't think I'm going to write another blog till my surprise! I'm actually so excited about it... and anxious to see how it turns out. I'm a little bit afraid it'll be a total flop, but I'm willing to take the risk. It's one point on my "to-do"- list!
I think I might be ready with the surprise on... Wednesday.
I still need to polish some uneven things regarding the surprise, but by Wednesday it should be in pretty good shape!

We'll see on Wednesday ;)

Where Dem Bloggers At?

"Freedom is what you do with what is done to you." - Jean-Paul Sartre.

My weekend is going to be pretty boring, I think. At least today I'm going to go watch a movie with a friend. My mood was ruined because everything I need happens to be at the other side of town.
Today, I did my homework and cleaned up the kitchen. Oh, and talked to my dad. It's his birthday today, so happy birthday dad over here as well!
He'll be coming back in two weeks, with everything regarding his new job done. At least this is what I hope. I wonder when he'll be heading to Sweden...

I told you I'm going to tell you about Google's new android phone, Nexus One.
Nexus One looks a bit like an iPhone. It's 119mm high, 59.8mm wide and 11.5mm deep. This means it's about as thick as a pencil! It weights no more than 130g with the batteries' weight included.
The touch sensitive screen is a bit bigger than the iPhone one, and many other functions are better mostly because of the more efficient processor.
One feature I really want to try is the voice recognition! You can talk to the phone, and the phone writes whatever you were saying. I don't know how this will work in the Finnish version (which I'll hopefully get), but it seems to work pretty flawless in the English version. When you say "smiley face", it makes a smiley face ;)
I don't know why, but the moment I saw it I knew I wanted one. Another good reason to get a job.

You know what? Heroes came back from the winter holidays! I'm so excited, season 4 is really good. At least so far I've liked the plot, even though it seems like it's not going anywhere. The characters are confused, and lead by the only ones who are not. Everyone's being played, but because there is more than one puppetmaster, they just end up confused.
Mistakes are fixed, not the best way possible. Mistakes are made, with even bigger consequences.
Is the bad guy really bad? Are the good ones pursuing truly a better view of the world?
I've also liked how they managed to introduce so many new faces into the show and actually taking importance from the main character. It sounds like a bad thing, but it is not that, not at all. I was getting pretty annoyed that the objective was to eliminate Sylar. They've changed this, but not completely. Brilliant.
Robert Knepper is doing a real good job at playing Samuel. At first I was sceptical that his role as T-Bag on Prison Break would ruin it all, but I was wrong. His presence turns around expectations and makes you forget he's ever played an ex-convict in an award-winning TV series!
Volume 5 of Season 4 is definitely Redemption.

I had this headache the whole yesterday. It wasn't a normal one, it was just in one spot and it came and went like it liked. Really annoying.
I haven't felt it yet, and I hope it's gone forever now.

Okay, lots of updates. I left my blog on since I had to go. But now I'm back.
No movie today, unfortunately. Why? Because I was stupid and wasn't prepared like I would've had to prepare.
We agreed that we should watch another movie some other day.

So basically I've done nothing interesting today, other than hear how stupid my English sounds. Why hasn't anyone told me I sound like an idiot? I guess it's cause I sound like an idiot anyway.
Sigh.
It's so strange. You think your voice is totally different than it really is. I had a good voice until I recorded it and hear it. Jesus, it's terrible :D
I'll learn sign language and that way I won't have to hear myself again.

I'm going to watch a new Finnish TV series. It's supposed to be improvised fun, and I hope it is.
Then I'll probably hang out on MSN for an hour or two. Depends if there's people or not.

Catch me there if you dare!

All I've Got Is Nothing Without U

Here we are again! Hiya.
I don't know what I should write for an introduction. I feel empty, dull and recycled. Lol. Did I just say "lol"? Dang, I'm seriously burned out.
In normal circumstances I would never ever lol so it seems this isn't a normal circumstance.
My friend had a pretty self-pity blog yesterday and frightened about its lolness I'll try not to do that (I know my friend knows, we talked about this, so no hard feelings, 'k?).
Just letting you know that this isn't the best possible blog there will be, unless my steel-hard-rotten feelings don't give my writing skills some kind of boost.

Yesterday, a new TV show started over here, in the place where hell froze over. The program is called FlashForward, and it's about this... future vision thingy.
Basically, in a nutshell, the whole population blacks out for two minutes 17 seconds. In this time everyone saw the future, a specific date and time of occurrence.
My friends were saying it's really exciting and addictive. IMO it's not that good really. Of course it is interesting but not really intriguing. What's the difference? I don't know, I just think there is. A difference, that is.
I'm still going to follow the show, since I have nothing better to do. Except studying. Or finding a job.

One of the factors that contribute to my grumpiness is this weird fatigue. My legs hurt for some odd reason. They've been hurting from since I went to the gym after a long pause on Wednesday. Guess the long pause had an impact, making my ... muscles adapt to the laziness and faineance of my being.
Actually I kinda like the feeling. Makes me feel like I've actually done something. Endorfins much? Hope so.
That didn't stop me from working out today, nah, whatya think? I did a full workout, even better; did more aerobic than usually. Sports kill sorrow. Or not, that just sounds funny.

Other thing that makes you feel good is fatty food. It's been researched, actually, that sweet food can be considered as a drug. It leaves its traces in your limbic system, and when you try to refrain from that food, your hypotalamus produces stress hormones. This is why being on a diet feels like the withdrawal symptoms of quitting smoking. The smallest piece of cake seems absurdly tempting.
Guess that's why I took a bite of some mint chocolate my mom left next to the computer. And that bite turned into two, and then those two bites of a single chocolate turned into ten eaten ones.
I'm eating everything I work out right back :D And my mom and brothers came home with a huge burger from Hesburger and french fries! Yummy!

Today, at school, I spoke up. Ha. I wish I had, I just had my impromtu speech. For those who don't know what that means, the teacher chose like 3 people to make an improvised speech. We chose a number from 1 to 74 and the teacher told us what our topic was. We had some time to prepare.
My subject was whether we should have more events and common feasts at our school. I said that it could lift our spirit, but on the other hand, there's only so many people interested in hosting such things. I said that if there were more events, it might become a bit repetitive and boring, since they'd always be the same people performing (even tho I'd love to hear Ms. GreatSinger, refer to earlier blogs).
I got no constructive criticisms, but I was told it was natural and ... I seemed to like it in front of the class. And why lie? I did like it. The adrenaline is stupefying, I love that feeling. If it even was adrenaline, whatever mindtricks it should be, love it regardless.

I signed up into some Biology Olympics. I doubt I'm going to make it, since it's about all the biology courses, when I've only had like 4. I'll still do it, just for the experience.
I wish there was an English one, I might even be able to compete against a brilliant genius friend of mine who's taking part of one abroad ;)

One of my newest addictions is Nexus One. It's a Google-made phone.
I soooooo effing want one. I would've written the ef-word, but since this is a school project (basically) I'm trying my best to keep it clean.
I'll tell ya more about NO in my next blog, since I feel this is becoming long.

My friend is psychic and I'm going to make sure I train her for the great future that awaits.

I'm in great pain, my friend, if You, who is causing this, read this, do something. Cause I'm not going to wait forever. I might wait just a bit longer, but that will be all I can take.
Release me, cause I did my time.



Of this cold case love.

The Lovers Need to Clear the Road

Okay, first things first. No super special film review. Why? I forgot today is my long day, so I'm pretty much exhausted from all my hobbies.
I'll do it for tomorrow or for Saturday, I might leave it for Saturday, since I'm going to watch The Girl With a Dragon Tattoo. How weird, the name I mean. In Finnish it is The Men Who Hate Women, and just the same on its original language, Swedish. I have no idea from where they got that name from.
Friday will get its own blog, obviously, just without a film review.

School started today. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, not at all. My sitting muscles were getting pretty numb for just sitting home.
Well, I actually spent almost the whole vacations out of home, so I guess I have my own reasons why wanting to go to school. May those reasons be mine till end of time ;)
I had fun at drama, like usually, the only thing was that I didn't get enough contact. Whatever that might be. Why should I show all my feelings? :P
I didn't get to do my impromtu speech, so I was pretty disappointed. Or actually happy, since I wasn't in the mood to do speeches. I'll do much better tomorrow than today.
Oh! One thing I discovered today. It's a genius thing! It's called FML. Or Fuck My Life. And there are variations, but especially those are funny. The thing goes like this. You go to the website and then you can chose to post something that's wrong in your life. Then others can decide whether "Your life sucks" or "You deserve it". It's pretty funny what all kind of stuff happens to people! You should check it out, if you're interested ;)


www.fmylife.com

I would have some things to write over there. But I'd feel embarrassed, since all the posts are so funny! Mine would be just plain complaint, nothing funny about them and nothing to feel sorry for.
You better check 'em out! Especially if you feel like crap, and need a boost (cheer).

I forgot to tell you something yesterday. I went shopping the day before yesterday! I bought myself TWO pairs of shoes (because mom told me to, she says it's better for my feet to have two different shoes) and one pair or jeans :)
I like the shoes and the jeans, and I bought them really cheap! It cost less than 80€, so I'm pretty proud to find something cool at such low price :)
At school my friends told me the minute they saw my new jeans that I have like ten thousand jeans! I was a bit resentful, since I only have like four jeans that I use. Okay, maybe that's not few, but it's not a thousand!

I'm really disgruntled by something that happened, and the fact that I saw that happening.
I saw a guy come behind this girl and grab her bosom. In a pretty public place. I mean, what the heck? Who does that? They are a couple, but still. Totally uncalled for.
So embarrassing.
And he... massaged. Jesus Mother. Seriously, you don't see that even in the worst TV shows there are.
Too bad to end the blog like this. Geez, geez.

Hope the vid is of quality.

Wait is Over

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.
