The End
I'm declaring this blog officially dead. Only three people amongst my LJ friends are active (and therefore likely to read my entries) anymore and I don't really see any reason sharing my life in here anymore. The little that I want to share can be shared more easily on Facebook (as annoying as the place is). This isn't to say I wouldn't continue to ( Read more... ) -
Interblogstuality
I've started a new (well, it's not so new anymore, but anyway) photoblog for my ship photography, which can be seen at kships.blogspot.com. Now obviously most of you probably don't care a rat's ass about ships, but I've been told they're attractive photos in their own right, so please give them a look ( Read more... ) -
Oh great...
We've got water damage in the apartment. The water intake pipe of our diswashing machine has apparently been leaking. We had a plastic thingy under the machine that was supposed to cause any leaks to come on the floor in front of the machine, but for some reason it hasn't worked and instead the machine had been leaking between the plastic thing and ( Read more... ) -

Well then, update time!
I'm done with my first Uni degree. If all goes to plan, in month at most (hopefully sooner!) I'll be a Bachelor of Arts (Humanististen tieteiden kandidaatti). Then onwards to the Master's degree... I am a bit stressed out though, worried that something will pop up that I should have done but haven't and therefore the Uni'll ( Read more... ) -
Me make a meme
Meme time! Haven't done any in ages...
The idea is, comment here and I will give you a color. Then, in your journal, list ten things you love that are that color.
anglepoiselamp gave me blue... which is actually pretty damn hard. I like the colour blue, but very few things I like are blue ( Read more... ) -
Thank you boys, now I am clean
Renovating really does seep the juices from you. We spent the whole day washing walls (and ceilings, and floors), afted having spent much of yesterday doing the exact same thing. Apparently the previous tenants weren't very keen on keeping the place clean; we though one of the walls in the living room was painted with two different shades of white ( Read more... ) -
Timewaster
I finished a 12-page essay today on the Swedish East India Company and it's effect on the consumption of luxury goods in 18th century Sweden. As that brings to a close my most immediate causes of stress (obviously, I'll be buying a new apartment in three days, so not all causes of stress are cleared).
Anyway, on the continuing adventures of jossujb made ( Read more... ) -
...and a deltoid and bicept / a hot groin and a tricep / makes me *uhh* shake!
It's surprisingly hard to essentially re-start this journal. There's so much that has happened during my inactivity here that it's hard to know where to start and what parts to explain (or not explain). But here goes.
In the beginning of January ladywaterlily, my brother and I were on Malta for a week (which was great). The relevance of that for this journal ( Read more... ) -

I sent out half a dozen (no, more than that) summerjob applications today. If I'm lucky I get a job at a libtary, in Korkeasaari (Helsinki Zoo) or a store selling shoes. If I'm unlucky, I'll get a job in a warehouse or as a gardener. Something's better than nothing, of course ( Read more... ) -

We were visiting various tores selling kitchens today with Maria (as well as Bauhaus to see linos, paints and glazed tiles). And now I'm soooo exhausted. While doing the kitchen shopping we realised we hadn't taken all the required measurements from our future kitchen, so we'll need to contact the seller of our future place again if she could ( Read more... )
