I get an email newsletter called Grapevine. And it has notified me that it is juhannus soon (midsummer feast or something to that effect). Is it really this saturday? When I'm going home? Am I infact going to be home on juhannusday? New potatoes, silli and butter? Barbecue?
*ish almost in tears with the idea, it's too awesome to be true*
Although it will very likelyly mean that shops along the drive home will not be open, so note to self: pee before getting to the car.

Last night I was planning a new writing for Writersco. Then I also thought up something to do in the computer, related to photographs. I can't remember what that was. I tried to write it on my hand but in the dark I didn't see if I managed and in the morning there was nothing written on my hand.

Is crooner the word to describe singers like Sinarta and Dean Martin etc?

I like Kevin Spacey as a singer. I think I want to see that film, Beyond the sea, if that is indeed a film.

How amusing, all the Krill-sites work except WritersCo. Which Krill-site am I most involved with? Yep, WritersCo. :)
I tell you, the world is out to get me. And it seems to be personal. >_>

I am done faffing with my house for now.
I apologice for the inconvenience caused to [windowframe] :P

I am actually saying LMAO at this :D

Lets spread the diary love
<diary:811612>

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

Scorpio - Leo

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. :)

*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
