Why do people feel better after talking? Like why is telling someone something "a load of your mind"? What is it really about?
And then here's something for you to click:

Right, thank you all very much for commenting on that Maccy problem I has. :3 I'd like to clarify that it isn't my machine (as usual), it's a uni one so I'll have to be careful about installing stuff on it (they don't like it when students do stuff like that very much, I understand).
How can you run .exe files on Macs? It says that it doesn't know which application to use to open that type of files, and suggests that I decide for myself -_- Can it be done?
I has iMac.
Is not so gret actsully. :/

Developing from a Finn to a Coventry girl - A warning example
The Case Study.
The test subject was subjected to a situation where she either could not hear correctly or didn't quite catch something being said to her in a conversation.
In her first year in England, the reaction she had to the situation was to translate the response she would have in Finnish:
-What?
In her second year, Englishness had rubbed off on her from lovely native people, such as [deus-ex-machina], and she would reply with:
-Pardon?
In her third year, when she was cruelly removed from the beneficial influence of the above-mentione
-Ehh??
It sufficest to say that the individual is, indeed, sent to Coventry.
On another note, I accidentally had to pretend not to know Finnish on the airport when coming back his weekend:
I was on Stansted airport waiting for my check-in to open, and I noticed an older couple that were waiting also, and I was assured that they were Finnish too. They looked a bit like they didn't know English (it isn't uncommon for older people in Finland to not know English) When the check-in was opened, we all went to the queue. The couple was talking to themselves, and the man said "I wonder if we'll start hearing Finnish soon". I smiled and the man looked at me and said "over there?" or something like that, I kind of missed it. So I leaned towards them and asked "what", except I didn't, I said "eh?" So they thought I didn't know Finnish. And then I had to pretend to not be Finnish because it would have been too embarrassing to fix the misunderstadin

Have a look at the "moving images" link, too.
I interrupt your normal lives with this important announcement.

Halp iippo!
Do it today. Do something impossible...
I can't remember if I told you guys about it, but the Finnish band CMX has released a new album, which is basically a theme album: it's all one big "story" like an opera or a symphony (except it's not a narrative) and it's all sci-fi-ish and gorgeous and it has this 40-page libretto in it and each CD (of the 8000 released) is individually numbered and it's so shiny and pretty and I bought it right before coming to England again and I've been listening to it a lot lately and I'm all in its mood.
So if I change my mood into "my tomb is guarded by a hundred thousand killer satellites" or something like that, don't worry :P
Quoth [Viking]:
The Fonz is cool. But she may actually equate the words Fonz and Cool, whereas the truth is that "cool" is simply a property of "The Fonz", and not his essence.
Buttons are teh confuse. I hope they are not to stay.
Back in England again, getting used to everything again (except the house being cold - I'll never get used to that -_-): English keyboards (my faceys might be freaks for a while), speaking English all the time, using uni computers, making my own dinner (le gasp).
I need to go back to Finland again very soon, as my last grandmother has just died T_T
I've noticed a lot of these diary notes again (y'know, the ones where people say some celebrity I've never heard of has died), so I'll join in:
Oh no! The rally-driver Colin McRae died! :(
It is impossible for a guitarist to use the computer and scratch a dog at the same time. :( Because the dog is on the wrong side of the chair!
(These idiotic diary notes are really a cry for help)
There's an emo in my chemo who's got a scheme-o.
