12.49 -- MUHAHAHA I just wrote another section with LaTEX (Linux language, anyone seen me writing \begin{something} and \end{something} around here?) and now I'm surfing Elftown! I'm getting paid 1000 € per month for doing this! Hahaha, and I'm NOT PAYING TAXES! XD

\begin{rant}
It's NOT about X-Men Evolution, no, but another RPG group at Yahoo. To the outsider, quite elegant and good-looking RPG. However, when you get into it, you find yourself deep in pure crap.
I told my character's name. They requested me to use some other name. And why? Because they had had a complaining player with that name! -- Proves how they get stuck in pointless detail.
I asked about how telepathy works. Two times. No answer. Third time I got an answer "I don't know, we don't concentrate on detail." -- Proves they are illogical and picky about things they can't handle and bother to take care of.
A person who offered to help me for some weird reason did NOT like it when I kept asking questions! Why did she offer to help me? -- Proves me what kind of people are in the RPG (I know, it's just one person, but she offered to represent the RPG, so...)
I saw a PG-17 (or something like that) on one of the info files, asked a fellow mod what it meant. He said it was old and that I could join even if I was 17, as I am. Now, I sent email to the RPG admins. I have a "86" on my email to tell my age. Two people replied me, three times. When I spoke to the person who wanted to help me, she said they're a 18+ RPG, and that I couldn't join even if I had my parents' permission! Why in hell didn't the other two people tell that to me? My age was in my EMAIL ADDRESS!
They didn't want my character, telling me to start from beginning. They had never heard anything more about my character than the name and the powers I wanted!
Guess who certainly is NOT joining that RPG?

14.19 -- Sigh... this is going to be one depressing summer... I wish I had some freetime...

19.46 -- I've watched all the Neon Genesis Evangelion episodes. Sigh... It reminded me of how much I want Finnish subtitles... and that life is strangely hectic...
Yeah, and I want to know why I'm so depressed. I'm not used to this.

10.03 -- We got the Neon Genesis Evangelion DVDs from the customs today! It took maybe a week for them to get from USA to Helsinki, and three months to get from Helsinki to Tampere. I HATE CUSTOMS! They prolong our order time by MONTHS, AND steal our money! They charged 44 damn euros for it!
We watched the seven first episodes if I remember right. The characters aren't good, maybe except for Rei, but I almost knew it had to happen... Well, at least the rest is good, I think.

13.22 -- Nice... I'm translating an English meteorological text written by Austrians into Finnish. Where are the commas?! These are too ambiguous, especially because I don't have a clue what the text is saying... I'm just translating it! I'm innocent!
*gives up*
Uhh... Next text? Or back to writing code?

14.30 -- I have my opinion. Photoshop SUCKS. It might be just me, but seriously, I think it's missing some important tools... Paint Shop Pro is way better (for drawing among other things), and the newest version has vector graphics!

08.38 -- I'm at the Finnish meteorological institute... Supposed to be working... right...
It's a one huge screen I have O_O Gotta get one of these at home.

13.50 -- Lol... It's no problem to write equations about meteorological physics with LaTEX, I can use the darn program and everything, but I don't understand the formulas so I don't know what's wrong with them and don't know what they exactly want there! Crap >_<

22.31 -- I just moderated one HELLISH Zone ticket... There was absolutely nothing acceptable in it... 12 pictures of modern people and X-Men RPG characters, nothing else. Again, HOW CAN PEOPLE BE SO STUPID?!

23.12 -- Back from Joensuu.
How to spend your time while sitting six hours in a car?
Spot a roadwork and count all the machines. Between Tampere and Jyväskylä I counted about 182 whole machines.

16.59 -- Yesterday I saw a picture with the stupidest reason to put it in Zone 47. I just can't believe how stupid people are. The description goes like this (or a part of it):
"I am putting it in the sci fi section because of what she's saying, I can't picture contimplating suicide as fantasy and she is a modern character and well, I just think it's too dark. and yeah.. I was sad when I made it."

OH PLEASE!!! That's the WORST reasoning EVER I have heard for a pic to be in Zone!
The only freaking thing in the desc that got it allowed in Zone was the part "is a modern character"! It being about suicide and dark have absolutely NOTHING to do with being modern! How can people be THIS STUPID?!? I think I know now why people don't like Zone, since they have this kind of idiotic, prejudiced attitude toward it!

And modern fantasy IS NOT the same as scifi!

11.57 -- Damn the economics multiple choice was a guess-and-win... Fortunately the test today was easier, though I had to write a lot more and think XD
3 hour 15 minutes physics test coming... then 2,5 hours waiting for the damn Swedish lesson... real nice. Maybe I'll hit home and run to the bus stop again? Sigh.
15.33 -- I remembered NOTHING in the physics test X( I wonder if I'll get even a three out of that -_- I just have to hope the multiple choice and the tomorrow paper will go better... Argegeee...

9.56 -- Muahahahaa! The biology paper three was easy! And I ruined it by bad grammar and incomprehensible sentence structures! MUAHHAHHAHHAAA! Suffer, teachers!
9.59 -- Somehow I feel like I'm sugar high or something. Must get that candy! Mom, come on! School's over soon! XD I'm killing you with this. I shouldn't write this at school waiting for... a... freaking... economics test >_< My good mood is all gone!
10.00 -- OK I admit, I'm insane.

22.16 -- What really happened on Friday afternoon.
I went to the bus stop near my school and got into the bus. I sat there for 25 minutes and amazingly fell asleep right when we went past my stop. I ended up about five km in the next county, Hämeenkyrö. I started walking back. It was raining, and there was no sidewalk, to I had to walk on the edge of the highway. About five cars passed me every ten seconds. One fifth of them big trucks. Ooh, the sweet border of Ylöjärvi! I walked one more kilometer in the rain and then got to a familiar forest road. No more big loud trucks! Then I walked two km through the village to my home. Took me 1,5 hours.
