14:41 — Yeeeah, renaming your original image files is an extremely exciting and useful thing to do. Holy crap I'm shivering out of sheer anticipation.
Bloody damned heat. It's 29°C in the shadow.
14:44 — Update: 30°C in the shadow. >_< !!!
19:55 — I've sometimes come across people who keep on calling others "mister", "miss" and so on. I've gotten called those too, sometimes. It's bloody obscene if you think about it. The first thing people say about others is the look of their genitals and secondary sexual characteristic
01:02 — "Any transition serious enough to alter your definition of self will require not just small adjustments in your way of living and thinking but a full-on metamorphosis.
... That quote sort of scares me... probably because it's often true. ó_ò
20:00 — In other news, I did get my glasses (whee, I actually can sometimes not see double or triple and so on!) and I finished the second phase of driving school. I'll just need to take this certificate thing to the police after about three months.
03:35 — Uuuuh. I went to Helsinki today to see two people and came back just about half an hour ago. Tired. My legs are dead. x_x
13:40 — Sleep good. I still feel tired, but I guess that's sort of good. Well, now I have seen both [Sarde] and [Roma] in real life. Scary. The damn Helsinki bus station is an evil place. I didn't have time to buy anything decent to drink.
Today I have the slippery driving training whatever thing, and I'll get my new glasses. I wonder how long it'll take for me to drive there. Hmmh. I guess I'll go get the glasses, then go to the driving place and after that to the store. Cookies are needed.
14:40 — Heh heh, I went to the eye doctor today. She put some funny stuff in my eyes that made them feel funny. It's going away now, though. I think she said something along the lines that I only have a tendency to dynamic squint. Well, kind of felt like that. She also said it's not really repairable, but I got a new pair of glasses that fixes something about it. I think I got a bit more short-sighted.
Well, I'll get the new glasses on the fourth. Then I can go to the slippery driving lesson thing wearing my new glasses. X)
08:53 — I didn't sleep too good today. But that's not interesting. What is, is the song I just listened to. Finnish metal, specifically Teräsbetoni. >_> I guess you would need to listen to it and know Finnish to erm... "appreciate" it.
16:07 — Reaction test. XD http://www.loo
My best was 0,14, next 0,203 and mostly I was getting 0,21–0,24.
12:34 — I guess I'll just have to wait until I'm not that incompetent. Oh well.
Hmm. I have an appointment to an eye doctor the day after tomorrow. Whee. I just need to hope this dynamic squint doesn't decide to have a lazy day. The day after that, I'll have a driving lesson and some theory stuff.
For some reason that made me think about a thing that happened to me some time ago. I was driving to Lielahti and right after I passed the crossroad of my town center, some obnoxious driver stuck right behind me. I was driving on the left lane because the cars on the right lane were driving just slowly enough to annoy me. In addition to that, I was eventually going to take a left anyway. Well, that car just stuck right behind me and looked like it was in a serious hurry. Well, I didn't change lanes, though I could have, because I was going to take a left in the crossroad after the next one and there were relatively many cars around. The other car didn't have as good chances to change lanes, but it could've done it. Yet it didn't and just hung behind me, driving right about on the patch of land on the left of the left lane so that it raised coulds of dust. It continued to hang behind me until about halfway after the first crossroad, after which there was plenty of space for it to change lanes. Yet it didn't even wait that long, but squeezed between me and the car on my right exactly when there were plenty of space ahead of us, but not behind or between. How stupid is that? The damned car could've done that just about any time. In addition to that, the car seemed to be in a hurry. There was an empty space in front of me because I don't tend to drive that fast, but still, is there any point when the string of cars that is ahead of me drives as fast as I do, and I'm just not trying to catch up? Not only that, but after the car had passed me, it drove past a few cars that were on the right lane and then squeezed right into a tight place in the right lane! I knew and saw that the right lane was going to be boggled for the next kilometer or two and the left lane would've been faster. Not only that, but there weren't even any crossroads where that car could've taken a right so as to have a reason to change lanes. So why did that speeding bitch hang behind me, one freaking meter away from me and after passing me changed voluntarily and without reason to the slow right lane?
People are stupid. If I ever get that car behind me again, I'm going to slow down, flip it off and mark down its licence plate. What a threat.
16:52 — Bloody damn the incompetence! >_< I'm a damn bloody coward.
19:36 — Uuh. Well, I was supposed to talk with my parents about the issue that's been bothering me and I finally did it. Though, maybe making your mom guess about it wasn't exactly the bravest thing to do. She got it right on the second try though. >_> Now I feel emotinally unstable or something. Weird... I was supposed to be relieved, but maybe it was more of a "what THEN?" issue. It seems to be.
21:26 — I guess I'm relieved now. Whopee. Of course the issue itself isn't even near to getting solved and is only getting worse. Oh well, that is the nature of the issue. I was somewhat surprised, though not much, that my mom did notice I was being weird. I had been walking aimlessly about the house for two days and been reserved for maybe three weeks or so, and she thought I had been looking idle for two weeks. I have a tactic! o_o Eh, that sounded more selfish than I would have liked it to at this point.
23:24 — I've been writing an autobiography (I'm thinking I'll need it soon enough), and damn, I have a lot to tell. Maybe it's too little. >_> I'm writing it in Finnish and it's going bloody well this far. I'm goood. It seems to also be helping my issues.
23:50 — I've been sweating like mad over this thing. :P
16:18 — Annnnngst. Sigh. And I thought I couldn't get any more incompetent... Excuse me while I crawl.
Speaking of crawling, I was picking at the mat/rug we have in our livingroom, and at one point a bug crawled straight out from it. I swear it was living in between the little strings or was stuck there or something.
19:59 — Midsummer fest, yay! Somebody turn off that sun! I want it to be dark at night and cold all day long!
To think that if it was winter, it would've been dark for like 4 hours. Compared to now, when it'll be dark in a few weeks. Bleh. Maybe I should just be happy that it is dark for half the year.
08:23 — Gläh. My shoulder is better, but it's still rather dead. It hurts when I stand and I probably shouldn't sit either, but I can't do anything if I just lay around. Maybe this warming up electric blanket will do some good. Now the left side hurts a bit too.
15:52 — Aaarghhh! The right side of my neck and upper back / shoulder is completely dead. I can't be in my nomal slouching position because it just HURTS my shoulder bloody damn too much. And since I can't slouch, I've discovered an all-new problem that pisses me off a damn lot. In addition to that, I can't really look up without bending my right arm up too, and even then I can't bend my head backwards. The only way I can hold my head up is if I retain this overly idealized posture and/or if I turn my head enough to the right (but not too much, because that hurts a lot, too). Bloody fucking shit. All this because I slept bad on it, apparently. And I was feeling so good otherwise. Excuse me while I curse some more.
17:30 — ANGST! Bloody fucking OW! My shoulder!
20:07 — Gaaa! Angst. >_< My shoulder just keeps on hurting. My mom told me to use our warming electric blanket thing, and it worked for a while... then the shoulder died again. Ow. I lied on the couch for some time and happened to watch a documentary about Margaret Thatcher. I didn't wear my glasses and I guess that's the reason who my short-sightedn
16:39 — Summer vacation, month two: bored and braindead. Even more, our router is making this dangerous noise. I'm guessing it'll break any day now. Our X-box is being an asshole too.
19:06 — It's inhumanely hot here. Unacceptable. Disgusting. Sick. Braindead. -_-
There's probably something wrong when it's possible to just be (like sit in front of the computer), maybe with the fan on, and not be uncomfortably warm or anything, but the thing that makes me sick is the fact that the air is too warm when it reaches my lungs. Breathed in air should be cold and feel like razors in your lungs if you breathe too fast.
I rewatched Ghost in the Shell a couple of hours ago. Maybe not the best thing to do when you're feeling braindead.
13:04 — I've been productive today. I went to an optic's office and got a reservation for an eye doctor to check this dynamic squint of mine. I also went to the post office to get the new SIM chip for my cell phone, since they sent me a new one. After that I went to eat some breakfast at Rolls, heh. I saw a driving school next to the Rolls, so what the heck, I just went there and took care of my second stage driving lessons thing.
I'm so proud of myself. (Yes, all this before [Levoton] even woke up.)
21:19 — Holy crap. Bloody damn. It's inhumanely hot in here. I melt! And I can't place my little fan near the computer because it makes the screen flicker. Sigh.
17:07 — MINESWEEPER TOURNAMENT!
17:10 — Bloody hell. Don't you just hate it when you're playing minesweeper, and then suddenly BAM, you hit the wrong mouse button.
17:14 — Bloody hell!
08:18 — Weird. Some years ago I decided I wouldn't speak to anyone who actually believed in those religious stuffs that most people get stuffed down their throats. Well, after that I met some decent people who did believe in something, even if in their own way. They weren't fanatics or anything, and so I talked to them anyway.
On Elftown I've met even some rather fanatic believers and found some of them okay, at least most of those who talked civilly with me, and since most of the uncivil ones don't get past the first message, that gets better. It's strange, but apparently after having bad impressions from real life, TV and random people's houses and websites, the world decided to give me something decent. (And now I'll wait in fear the smiting for saying that.) Hm, that sounded divine. Oh well.
Well, I still think that a need to believe in something divine etc. is a rather serious mental condition that should receive some sort of treatment if it goes too fanatic.
On a similar issue, after I had grown up a bit, I decided I wouldn't talk to anyone who would deny simple basic rights from people and discriminate them just because of gender-related issues (namely homosexual marriage in this case). Well, after a bit of dwelling I've even found decent people who oppose it and are just otherwise overall decent. It's kind of strange, again.
Here I thought most of those people are immoral bastards, but apparently they're only immoral bastards when regarding some issues. Yeah, I still can't understand why these people discriminate others because of gender. And even more, how the heck they can call themselves morally superior or even moral at all when doing that.
I'm a weird person, I know. :P
17:43 — My ultimate phone conversations. "Lehkone. Hei. Eio. Eio. Jo. Hei." (Translation: "Lehkone'. Hi. No. No. 'K. Bye.") Whole duration: thirteen seconds.
That's like the third random telephone marketer yesterday and tomorrow who asked for my parents. I'm getting pissed. Maybe I should just tell them that yeah, I'm my parents and then tell them no-no-no-no-no
01:24 — I worked on an obscene animation for a long time today. It's not good, but the longer I look at it, the more I laugh. XD It loops magnificently. Er, okay, maybe not, but still.
01:26 — Oh, and I partitioned my HDs differently after all. (Blame [True, plain and simple] for that.) I only have three partitions now, C (60 GB), D (30 GB) and E (40 GB). Somehow I'm sure I will regret this later.
18:56 — Phew. I shouldn't have left my room... It smells like detergent everywhere else except the kitchen where it smells like soup. neither of those stenches goes well with pudding. >_<
23:17 — I squee. I've got the OS back and the stuff worked fine. :D All is well. Okay, after using the laptop keyboard for a while, it miffs me that the keys on my normal keyboard are so faded. Well, small inconvenience. They'll eventually fade anyway.
00:34 — Bloody FUCK what a mess my computer is. It's just unbelievable.
First I couldn't get this OS cd to boot at all, did three copies in slightly different ways, no. Eventually I just dug out my Roxio Easy CD Creator and installed that one my comp, because if it was done with that, it would work (I only had Nero). Oh joy, ECDC doesn't recognize my DVD drive. WTF. So I tried to download updates, no luck. After that I panicked for a bit before I just took the damn boot file and one of the three CDs I'd made, went to [Levoton]'s computer (I was weirdly lucky I had picked a somewhat old CD recorder for her, so ECDC recognized it. Then I created the CD and finally got the booting CD to work. More problems followed.
After those had been solved and I'd installed a few other programs, a new tragedy hit me. There was not enough space on C:! Windows couldn't fit there properly, even though it had installed. Well, let's dig out the good ol' Partition Magic... which would not boot. So I dug out my old Win98SE boot floppy and shoved that in. Worked fine. I took that floppy out and put in the PQ one, and it worked. The next horror was the total chaos over three thrice-damned physical HDDs. C is full, D is the C of Key's old HDD, E is my old D, F is my old E, G is my old F, H is my old G, I is Key's old D, J is Key's old E and K is my DVD drive. Stars, what a mess. In addition to that, my new C is NTFS formatted while all the other drives and FAT32 formatted. Keeeeel. PQ does not resize!
Okay. I'm moving all the files on the smallest HDD (wow, they fit), and I will take that down and format the bloody HDDs! Bwaha! Bwahaha!
I'll have to install the OS again. And ALLLLL the programs and setting and urk... Stars. Sigh.
I won't make so many drives anymore. Let's see...
HDD0: 60 GB
HDD1: 30 GB
HDD2: 40 GB (Key's)
I'll make
C: OS, 10 GB of HDD0
D: Programs, 20 GB of HDD0
E: My stuff, 30 GB of HDD0
F: All of HDD1, 30 GB
G: All of HDD2, 40 GB
...That's like my original configuration, except with 2/3 more space.
01:05 — In addition to that, I just can't seem to be able to get our network stuff to work. It's inhuman. Krhm. >_>
14:50 — Sigh. I was in bed for like 12 hours or so. Slept maybe nine, though. I still feel tired. Maybe it's something I ate. I feel stuffed and would like to eat even though I haven't actually been hungry during the past few days. Damn food.
