I hath returned!
...and once again, the effort to catch up with things will have to be remarkable. Sigh. Forums, here I come.
My love to all of you! (Especially le Skurpists.)
Net cafés are zeh best. The place is open tomorrow as well, so I may or may not be here in the afternoon. If not, I'll see you peoples Sunday night.
<3
I be off now. Back sometime Sunday evening.
Take care, hold the fort! *huggles people*
Often, I wonder what the heck made me like Jukka in the first place. He's an arrogant bastard who drives me up the wall if I spend too much time with him. But this comment... this, here, reminds me exactly why I love him.
*Huggles*
You'll do fine in Oulu. Remember, you got in. Therefore, you were better than a crapload of other people. Also, you'll be on the same lectures with dozens of other troubled introverts (it takes a strange turn of mind to apply for English philology). You should be able to make new friends there.
Muh.
It's confirmed, now - the results from the Tampere uni entrance exams were published online, and Jukka is among those who were accepted. This means that I will be starting in Oulu alone, since he's made it clear that if he gets to Tampere, he'll take the place. He even has an apartment ready and waiting, inheritance from some relative or another.
I didn't think it would bother me quite this much, since I'd been preparing to be on my own from the start. So, unexpectedly, I find myself feeling just the slightest bit lonely right at the moment.
Off to my cousin's. I'll be back Friday afternoon at the latest. :3
Waking up to a cramp in your calf is Not Fun.
Paid the deposit for the apartment. We're visiting Oulu next week while at the summer house (they're reasonably close), so I'll go to the office with my uni acceptance letter and presumably get to sign the contract. The actual move is probably going to happen around mid-August - we'll see. I yet again realised that I'm going to have a ton of things to take care of before that, and it's making me restless. Gnahgnah. Must accomplish stuff this week. Am temporarily quite poor (74€ left) because of the deposit (250€), but as fortune should have it, payday is next Tuesday, so there will be no reason to despair. Have started gathering dishes, and brought a few boxes from the storage. Next I'll start thinking on which books to take with me. Most of them, I suppose...
For Trin, who threw a metaphorical gauntlet at the Poetry Discussion page. Somehow, when I tried simple, I ended up with a haiku. Most probably because there is no room for long flowy words. As for the second one... Eh. It's weird and fractured and dealing with a personal phobia. Possibly not even poem-like enough. I don't know if you'll accept these, but eh, I tried. xD May attempt more later.

Dial.
Press the damn button.
Press it.
Walk from one end of the room
to the other.
Shove words out - it's not that hard.
Honestly.
Over before you know it.
Cut the connection,
breathe out. In. Out.
You lie: Next time will be easier.
Sit down.
Breathe.
Quiet.
I has apartment offer from Oulu o_O It'd be a 15m² room in a so-called cell. 200€ for the rent and electricity.
So, today I should call there, as well as my cousin (about going to their place this week), and my employer (about needing next week off, and about quitting halfway through August).
I hate making phone calls. >_<;;
Gah. Cliffhangers are evil. I'll have to wait till Thursday to see what happens... Must distract self somehow >_<
Oh well, knowing me, I'll be over the initial anxiousness by the morning. As a matter of fact, sleep is sounding a better idea by the minute.
Also, my chair is annoying the heck outta me.
Trin: Will finish fic tomorrow. Braindead, so will go watch CSI and eat ice cream. The story is going to be awesome :P

Failage on the Helsinki entrance exam. I suck donkey balls at literary analysis. No way I got enough points in that section to pass. I'll just pin my hopes on Oulu...
Seems like I really chose a bad time to be inactive o_O
So many postings in all the crew forums to catch up to, even if I took a moment to look at one of them just now. Oh well, in a week I'll hopefully start being on top of things again... and being useful to the community. I feel horridly guilty about neglecting my duties, even though I know that my exams are the more important thing now.
Meh. Washing the dishes now, then reading a bit more about Changing English. Baiz.
*huggles everyone reading this*
*gives double and triple hugs and chocolate to the Skurpists*
I think I need a full-body massage. There's a spot on my lower back that especially needs attention. I don't know what the heck I've been doing to have it so knotty. Gneh.
Aside from that, the weather is starting to get uncomfortably warm. I dearly hope I won't melt on Thursday... then again, one year I all but froze in the exam hall since someone had apparently been a bit over-enthusias
Just a few more days! And then I can come back! Woo!
Of course, next on my list is to read all the Potter books, but anyway.
First entrance exam done and over with. Yay.
Have a poem.
Mockingbird, mockingbird
sing me your praises
shower me with presents
in front of familiar faces
Cry beauty and faith, cry love
lie through your teeth
swear even to the gods above
with that charming smile
Worry not for my darkened heart
come, play to me your roles
with all their twisting silences
until that accursed death knell tolls
Been sleeping and eating way too little these past few days. My brain is sluggish. My sight is foggy, too, as a matter of fact. Sorta. And been neglecting peoples, and ET. Sorry for that. But I won't have much time to be around until after June 5th anyhow. :S
Missing youuu. *huggles peoples* Especially you. <3
Warning: Random rant.
You know what's one of the things I hate most? The deliberate seduction of someone else's significant other. True, I have no first-hand experience, and as of yet have only seen it on TV and in written fiction... but still. Even if you suddenly realise that you are head over heels in love with that hottie from work and want to get in their pants, it just Should Not Be Done if they happen to be taken and you are aware of the fact. It is immoral, it is ugly, it is plain wrong. Thank you.
