I just realised that a horribly long time has passed since I last updated this. How can two weeks go by without me even noticing it? Weird.
So, here's what's going on at the moment:

~ I have a Moomin chocolate calender -the chocolate isn't the best kind but it looks sweet. ^^ (The important things first...)
~ It wasn't until today when I was reading ( Read more... )

   For once I actually have time to update my journal. I've been working the past week and so beginning to find sctual muscles from my arms... weird. I had this movie-like experience last weekend that I'e been wanting to share with you... So this is what happened: Me and Arttu were driving to his home and all of a sudden he told me to turn right to ( Read more... )

   You remember how excited I was to go Christmas-shopping about  a few posts ago? Well, forget that, shopping sucks coz you can't really find anything you need and you're in a huge rush all the time. Before I truly understood this (which means until today) I promised myself that this year I'd be early when it comes to presents and I'd buy them ( Read more... )

   I made an awesome discovery from YouTube, something that really made my day (life): some wonderful person is uploading the old episodes of Biker Mice from Mars there! They're also on in Finnish tv at the moment, but their broadcasting time has been quite random and I always forget it. :/ But now I can watch them via internet -there's even all ( Read more... )

   Obviously I can't write an entry now without at least mentioning the Big News everyone here in Finland is talking about -that would be serious self-deceiving. So, long story short: an 18-year-old guy started shooting in the combined high school/junior high school of Jokela killing five boys, a girl, the nurse, the principal and finally himself.

CONTAINS SPOILERS OF TODAY'S EPISODE OF DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES IN FINLAND.
For once in history a TV show actually has a plotline that pleases me. Even with the risk of sounding heartless and blood-thirsty I'm gonna have to confess that when Nora got shot in this evening's episode of Desperate Houswives I went all "Yay!" and "Take that you bitch!". And ( Read more... )

A few weeks ago I got a break from the piggery when I spent a week as a high school history/social sciences substitute teacher. Some time before that my previous headmaster had called me and asked if I ( Read more... )

   I'm ill. I'm so damn ill I can barely think properly. I swear my brains are draining out from my nose. I can't even go to work.
Oh yes, I haven't told I've finally got a job! I'm working -yes, officially, paying taxes and saving for my pension- at our piggery! It's actually quite nice, hard physical work is a welcomed chace compared to twelve ( Read more... )

   It's such weird feeling sitting at home doing nothing while the schools have started. I feel confused, bored even. I have a job interview tomorrow, so exciting! In January I'll probably start in a household school in Tampere, so I'll only have to work for about four months or so. I met this really nice girl a few days ago (Arttu's counsin's ( Read more... )
