Our version of a Christmas tree is an itty bitty cypress. About the height of a 1-year-old child... no wait, scratch that. Much shorter. Joy.

Here's a question: Why are all the best dreams always interrupted? :P

OFMG who was it?! xDDDD
Whoever donated in my name, I want to give a proper thank you :P

So, my lappy looks like that. You get to help me now. Should I call her Femke or Ursula? (Yes, I know, I've had her over a month without naming her... gasp :O)


Update: She is now called Femke. ^___^

  * Patron: "I am looking for a globe of the earth."
  * Librarian: "We have a table-top model over here."
  * Patron: "No, that's not good enough. Don't you have a life-size?"
  * Librarian: (pause) "Yes, but it's in use right now."

Words learned today: persnickety (:P) and caron.

And I wants feedback on the poem, damnit. xD

Cast away the shackles that bound
to the frost covered earth
broke free of the chains
that tied down for so long
left the burdens behind at last

Look here, tell me
can I find those answers
in your eyes or my own
even if I've been lost
in these years of shadows

Tell me can I
find that ray of sunshine
to tilt my face up
and smile, so hopeful
embrace myself with your arms

Whisper with me
of the secrets I held
banish the demons
one by one by one
and stand beside me as I enter my path

Terry Pratchett has Alzheimer's. ;_;
But as he tells us to be optimistic, I shall attempt to do so.

I made a friend join. Go say hi to [Rikkiviisas]. ^_^

Aaaahg. Panic. I lost one of the friendship bracelets Laura gave me. Or, rather, I didn't put it back on my wrist yesterday after washing the dishes and now can't remember where I placed it instead. May not seem like much of an emergency to anyone else, but damnit, I've been wearing it all the time for months now and it's about as essential as my Prometheus necklace! Gah. Must find it.

These kids almost give me a headache with their playing - especially when they're playing against each other.

Slept four hours last night. Maybe even less. Ehehehehe. Hehe. He. It's going to be kiddie weekend again. Head is killing me. Must go take nap now or I'll never survive until the evening. -_-

Anyone here have a Last.fm account? :3

Hyvää itsepäisyyspäivää!

_{For non-Finns: it's our stubbornness... okay, independence day today.}

So I had some weird-ass dreams again. Reading very not obligatory, though it may interest at least Trin and Allison.


One where House was probably treating a male patient and there was some sort of... tension between them. Said male patient looked like Alex Krycek's (X-Files) actor, only a bit older. And with glasses, I think. And then, uh, they went to the roof and Alex... kissed... House o__O Who rejected him. And then they were both aliens with bright red oval-shaped heads that could turn 180 degrees. Umm. Yeah.

And another that wasn't so weird, per se... I just. Meh. Atte was in it >_< And whatever the waking me may say, my dream self at the very least still has a pretty big crush. Now I can't stop thinking about him. Fail.

Ever want to OD on cuteness, go there. *puddle o' goo* I WANTS A KITTY xD

Well, this teaches me to check the exam place sooner than on the same morning. It's 06:20, I woke up twenty minutes ago, expecting the moment of truth to arrive at 09:00... And then I saw that the exam had been moved to the evening. It's now marked to start at 17:00. Haha. Kthxbye. This messes with my plans a little, but on the bright side - I get a few more hours to read. xD

Now, though, I'll go snooze for a bit more.
