A strange memory just occured to me all of the sudden, just like that.
We were in contextual studies seminar, all gathered round a table, students and a tutor, discussing Orlan. Orlan is an artist who has planned and undergone several plastic surgeries (made herself a second mouth, horns and other fascinating changes). The surgeries are filmed, and show that she is conscious all the time. She even draws with her own blood on her own skin during the surgery.
Anyway, as obvious, we were discussing plastic surgery. This was fairly early during the first year of my course. A mature student was telling how she could not ever undergo such a surgery that would change her appearance so drastically, overnight (her body and especially hands had changed during her life).
I was the only one there who had ever undergone a surgery that changed appearance 'overnight'. But I did not comment on the matter. I'm not sure why, it would have been very interesting for them to hear about it. But I just didn't speak up.
On other occasions in similar seminars, when I've been the odd one out I have spoken out, sometimes even silencing others to consider how many different viewpoints there are, but most of those times it has been a cultural difference: sentences starting with "In Finland.."
So when the difference came from my own choice (the surgery was my choice, I had the option to not have it but I did and i'm glad I did), I didn't want to be the odd one out. When it was something that had just happened due to circumstances, I was glad to share.

What. The. Fuck?

I did a search in my uni library online catalogue yesterday for "Diderot." I found a book by Denis Diderot called "Rameau's nephew; D'Alembert's dream" or something to that effect, to be found under the shelf code 843 DID.
Today I came and searched the shelf. No such book. I searched the online catalogue too. No such book.
The book I wanted, disappeared completely from the uni library records.

"Makeup and perfume promote the myth that women are ugly and smell bad."

People do smell bad, that's life. Men also wear perfume (although some try to be all manly and call it after-shave).
It's polite to try to smell a little nicer, especially if going to a public place where someone might have to be very close to you (shopping, cinema, bus, library, school, work...)

*shivers with excitement*
they... they have Diderot and D'Alembert's dictionary online... Not fully but getting there... but but still... The dictionary! In English!

Nutella is delicious.
(This phrase was brought to you by the Gutterbrains, inc.)

Packing done around 54 percent.
Book shelf done
Wardrobe mostly done (only what is in use and what will go to Finland are still left)
Some of kitchen (crockery) done.
Artstuff and under bed done.
Still need:
Kitchen (pots, pans, rest of crockery and foodstuff)
Bed >.<
Desk.
Bathroom? (Is there anything even there? Shampoo and soap?)

Also desperately need to borrow a washing machine to wash sheets before going.
Also have to remember to return library books at some point.

If [iippo] was Greek:
+ She wouldn't have such a cool Middle name.
+ She actually wouldn't have a middle name at all.
+ She would say "papia" instead of "ankka" (actually she does so already :P)
+ She would be proud that her roommate listens to Greek songs.
+ She would actually know what those weird songs say.
+ She would still be in the same GMT time zone...
+ She would love the same national country colours; blue and white.
+ She probably wouldn't be blond.
+ She would either be considered useless or she wouldn't be able to find a proper job if she studied Arts. (-.- Backward-minded Greeks)
+ She wouldn't be able to go visit [windowframe].
+ But she would be able to go visit [thuthuca]! (whee :P)
+ She wouldn't have such a great view from her window.
+ She would still live the same slacking-off-to-the-point- of-boredom student life! =D

Don't let your love of honesty hurt your partner's rather large ego. Leo's playful charm intensifies the passion between the two.


I hate it when they are that accurate. >.<;

*thanks the person who lit a candle for iippo in [peura]'s candle lighting webpage thing*
^_^
It made my day. :)

[Isilando]

*is still too shocked and art-gasming and hyperventilating and omging to make a sensible posting*

[Isilando]

Magnum Opus

*points at [Isilando] for non-people*
He is officially cool people now. No disgareement accepted.

*hands still shaking*

<3

*is listening to a CD of sound effects* :D
I hope they have train sounds. And machines. (Y'know, magnum opus -thing...)

So. X-Men 3. :)
First and foremost, I hope the whatever the hack they use in the Odeon cinemas to play the films will die in a very automated death. Because we sat until the very end, just like we were adviced, to see a thing-gift-surprise to people who stay at the end after the credits, which lasted about 5 seconds, and the automatic thing-bullshit that plays the movies started to drop the curtain half-way through. We shouted "nooo, put it back, nooo, it's not done yet" but got no response. So either the machine is automatic, or the machine handler himself is a machine. :(

Now the fan-girl comments:
Beast!!!! <3<3<3
Archangel!!!!! <3<3<3<3
Wolverine (he's a gibbon :D <3)
Mystique!! <3 <Z3 :O

Critique:
No Kurt :( :( :( Someone out there needs to buy the game, play it and tell me why Kurtie isn't in filmy.
All the newbie-evil ones were boring. And confusing since some of them were good guys in Evolutions. :/ Ah well they all looked like homogays anyway :P :P :P :P :P
Juggernaut wasn't uber enough, although he did indeed have a funky accent :D
Didn't get enough of Colossus, although appreciated fastball :P
The one I don't like... I liked her even less :) She's just so unimpressive... like a godmoder. :/

Also, a trailer to Ultraviolet = complete rip off of Dark Angel, except Dark Angel is cool. Jessica Alba is t3h sex even to some girls. I didn't even recognice Violet and she's just not... impressive looking. *sigh* I wish they'd go back to making boy-movies where the hero is a guy that little boys can look up to, not a bosompussy to wank off to >.<;;;


There's so going to be X-Men 4. >_>

I finished the varmin too :3



This time I wanted un-black background colour, and didn't get it >.O Ah well. Varmin!

Another Maya-made spaceship



Next up: a hideous space varmint! O_o;

Swedes and the French like to swallow instead of spit

I <3 [Calico Tiger] a wittle bit. :3

Sexond Maya achievment (also after a tutorial)
La Spaceshit XD XD XD

Have I ever told you all how much I love anecdotes? (I probably have, but I'll paste these two anyway):

For example, Cary Grant is said to have been reluctant to reveal his age to the public, having played the youthful lover for more years than would have been appropriate. One day, while he was sorting out some business with his agent, a telegram arrived from a journalist who was desperate to learn how old the actor was. It read: HOW OLD CARY GRANT? Grant, who happened to open it himself, immediately cabled back: OLD CARY GRANT FINE. HOW YOU?

A more sophisticated anecdote concerns Sidney Morgenbesser, then Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at Columbia University. One day in New York City, Morgenbesser put his pipe in his mouth as he was ascending the subway steps. A policeman approached and told him that there was no smoking on the subway. Morgenbesser pointed out that he was leaving the subway, not entering it, and that he had not yet lit up. The cop repeated his injunction. Morgenbesser repeated his observation. After a few such exchanges, the cop saw he was beaten and fell back on the oldest standby of enfeebled authority: "If I let you do it, I'd have to let everyone do it." To this the old philosopher replied, "Who do you think you are—Kant?" His last word was misconstrued, and the whole question of the Categorical Imperative had to be hashed out down at the police station. Morgenbesser won the argument.

Oooooomg my first ever thingie done in Maya!!!


It's awful but I did it!!!!

<diary:801132>
You used to listen to the radio all day long just to record "Your FAVORITE song of ALL time"

... "My life will go on" by Celine Dion. Several times over and over on the same tape, both sides... XD

Most of the other things mentioned there also apply, but this one just brought it all back.
