I just watched Arctic Blast, which is a movie about a sudden ice age sort of scenario which hits parts of the world. A cold front with -90F (-68C) temperatures hit parts of Australia killing a lot of people. Understandable. After a couple of hours the temperatures were a bit better: only -50F (-45C), but the people were still acting like it was too ( Read more... )

So we had a choir concert last week. It went well and we got some good feedback. I've played at, I dunno... maybe hundreds of concerts possibly, but I've never before taken part in helping to organize it. There's quite a lot to be done, I never quite realised how much work goes into it besides preparing the music ( Read more... )

Blergh! I just ate too much chocolate cake, two slices to be precise, and felt queasy for a while, like I was going to empty my stomach. My head felt bad as well. I really didn't think that the second slice would be too much. Well, I won't be likely to forget for a while ( Read more... )

So I started playing Dota 2 yesterday. I've been wanting to for a long time now as I've watched Nydi play it from the beginning. It's an online game, but not like Wow and games like that. It relies heavily on teamwork. Anyway, as a total noob I basically just get killed a lot. :p Aside from LAN parties I haven't really played games online with ( Read more... )

Phew, I just went through my LJ draft folder, which had like 50 files in it. I had to check weather or not I had already posted them and prepare to post the ones that I haven't yet posted. Gods, it took almost four hours. That should teach me to put this task off for two years ( Read more... )

The semester break, a week long vacation, screwed up my sleeping schedule, which often happens during vacations. I just need to get back to a more sensible bedtime.I've been looking into buying a new mobile and it's probably going to take more time for me to make a choice. There are so many things to consider and I always do quite a bit of research ( Read more... )

I hadn't realized how common-place live action versions of anime and manga series truly are. I've managed to avoid them so far, but some of them might be quite entertaining in a trainwreck sort of way. After a little searching I ran into these live action dramas: Gokusen, GTO, Ouran High School Host Club (bad enough to be good?), Princess Princess ( Read more... )

I saw Rent with MM and her friend on Saturday. It was in Finnish, which was a bit weird when I'm used to the English version. The singers were good, but the show didn't really suck you in, something was missing, but I don't know what. After that I went to my maternal uncles 50th bd party. It was nice to see my relatives. We only see once or twice a ( Read more... )

My mobile won't turn on or charge the battery, dunno what's up with that. It's an old phone so it might have finally just given up. So don't try to phone me or send me text messages.So I installed Windows 7 last night and then promptly forgot the password the following morning. >< Anyway, I had to hack into my own computer so that I could clear/ ( Read more... )

So I held my birthday party last weekend with some of my friends. I could've easily invited twice as many people, but as it was my party and I don't enjoy large crowds, I kept it relatively small (about 13 people came in the end). And I mixed all of my different social circles for the first time, which went much better than I anticipated. I haven't ( Read more... )
