hap happiness
"Are You happy?" You asked, one night, as we randomly browsed the paths that crisscross Helsinki. How could I possibly answer? My mouth went numb, my mind overloaded with questions as to what You were really asking and whether I could ever find a truthful answer to that question ( Read more... ) -
return to the land of your Soul
It's like a piece of a puzzle that I thought had been lost, or never even there, but that has appeared, right here, in front of me.

early polls
It is way too early - or too late, depending on what time zone you are taking into account - yet the thought of Obama actually winning, of actually becoming the next president is... beyond words.

VOTE!!!!!!!!
How amazing... How utterly mad it is, that in a country that proclaims itself as the greatest on Earth and as the defender of freedom and democracy, it can take up to 4 hours (or more!) to cast a vote ( Read more... ) -
tinkering thoughts
I've come across a boundary I am not sure how to handle. While travelling in Mongolia I kept both paper as well as electronic journals.
