15:48 — I have made progress today! I finally asked the janitor or whatever of one of the university buildings where its basement was. Well, being me, I had known where the entrances where. I'm just that good. The stairway from indoors was well hidden by clothes racks and a room and non-staircase-like structures, but it was there where I'd thought it to be. I had walked past several times, looking for a stairway and hadn't seen it. Oh well. The other entrance was the one from outside and it too was the door I had been eyeing suspiciously. Yeah, only I can accomplish something like this. :P

22:03 — Krhm. Cloak and Dagger. I've been reading comics again. I've seen them before somewhere else, probably in some X-Men story, but I remembered they were special somehow. Special, yeah. As if everybody else wasn't.
Well, it made me think about what they say: Without light there is no shadow and without shadowthere is no light (or it's useless). Something along those lines. Nevertheless, what is light and darkness without the things in between that reflect, refract, scatter and block that light?
Then I thought about electromagnetic waves and the whole thing lost its purpose and mysticism. Except not, but it's still a metaphor or analogy, I suppose. I never really liked metaphors. I like physics and that brings a whole new mysticity to it.

13:59 — Holy crap. The RPG club of my university is in the basement of Sähkötalo (Electricity house) and its address is SA016. Yet again I looked through the A hall and saw no staircase whatsoever leading downstairs. I know there is some way to the basement because I've been there. I think I went there from the outside, though, but I still can't figure out where the damn basement is. I think I'll blame it on waking up at 6 after bad nights, having to study physics and math right after each other for 4 hours and being unbelievably hungry because I'd get sick if I ate any more food in the morning. I should bring a snack and juice from home or something.
I was very hungry today and gave up as stated, drove home and forgot I was hungry. Damnit, I started doing the math exercises, thinking that I had forgotten something and didn't remember what it was. Geez. It's food time!

22:23 — Yes. http://geebasonparade.keenspot.com/d/20050817.html

19:01 — Right. First day of school has been dealt with. I chickened on the advanced physics course because it seemed like there were too many people in there and it really isn't meant for anyone except those who study technical sciences (whatever it is in English... it sounds ridiculous translated). I canceled that course, then did some more thinking and enrolled again. I've been unstable today.
I even went to the health center office thing of the university, talked to a nurse and dumped all my problems on her. I don't think she even flinched, though she did say something vague after I was done with the biggest issue. I can't help imagining that she's probably telling people that she met a total nutcase today. X) Heh, well, that's not so funny.

15:07 — Gah! I have to wake up at 6 tomorrow. What a tragedy!

21:43 — University starts tomorrow. However, I don't have any lectures on Monday during the first period (except two math PC exercises), so it'll start on Tuesday. How interesting. In any case, I'll have lectures from 8 to 12 every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for the whole year. The whole thought of that makes me tired already.
In other news, I've been slightly annoyed by some idiots in IRC. Oh well, I suppose I'd gotten too deep into a paradise-like state. The world is full of idiots, blah blah...

12:05 — Last night I read Finnish horror stories about IGM (intersexual genital mutilation) after looking at this thing: http://www.trasek.net/deegeet.htm
http://www.trasek.net/tiedotteet/02_2/kuinkas.htm
http://www.trasek.net/tiedotteet/02_3/hannele.htm
Huh.

14:56 — Oh well... here you go: RPG Realm (planning to create a new community mainly aimed for role-playing and stuff).

00:20 — I killed my hands today (yesterday) with a face grinding machine (tasohiomakone, Flächenschleifmaschine). That bloody table is evil, I say. Also, my mom could try polishing it herself to see that it's damn hard. X)

12:57 — Right when I was climbing to bed at 5 last night (this morning), I heard the mail car delivering the morning paper. There's just something sad about it when you go to sleep after the morning mail arrives. XD

12:14 — Well... http://www.livejournal.com/users/gomichan/157057.html

23:55 — So, yeah. Quote time. Let's see how much I remember by mind.
"I'd like to live just long enough to see your face when they cut off your head and stick on a pike as a warning to the next ten generations that some favors come with too high a price. I want to look up to your lifeless eyes and wave, like this:" ... "Could you and your associates arrange that for me, Mr. Morden?" as said by Vir to Morden in Babylon 5.
...Seemed to be pretty accurate. http://www.chronology.org/noframes/b-five/monologues.html

20:24 — I'm up to my neck with study stuff and I have no idea what to do. I guess the best thing I could do now is study independently some stuff and just try to pass the damned exams. Crap, my mix or realism, skepticism and no absolute truths is really stressing, but apparently I can't convince myself of any other way. ...Which would totally violate my current mix way too much anyway. I'm strange, yeah. Sigh. And that bloody extended math!
Tired.
Today, I helped my dad to cut down a tree in our yard, just outside my window. Its leaves kept dropping into the rain drain on the roof and blocking the water's way. I wouldn't have wanted to cut it, but well. I had fun climbing up the tree, tying the string, sawing off branches and pulling the tree into the wanted direction.

00:22 — I saw "The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy" today. I liked it.
I have also been very depressed today, or yesterday. Yet it doesn't make me think anything differently or anything. I guess I've also been tired. This is strange, yet ordinary.

10:58 — So I noticed a weird pattern in my dreams. I had a dream last night. I can't believe it was about merfolk and their breeding habits. Well, that's not the point. When I ended up in water (for some reason I didn't seem to be with the merfolk, I was more like a cameraperson), I was there for a while and then started falling. Now that is the point. I've had dreams where I'm in water and start getting pulled down at great speed. And that's yet not the most important thing. Every time, I never even fight because I like the feeling of getting my lungs decompressed! XD Then I wake up. I guess in real life I stop breathing or something. But damn that decompressing feeling is awesome. So much for regular dreams where you fall.

12:13 — I saw Fantastic Four yesterday. It was good :D

22:21 — So, today I went to get [Isilando] from the Helsinki airport. You know, the usual. I had a chocolate bar in my pocket and it melted, but it solidified once we were back home. Enough, anyway. It rained in about the same place both ways, except that when returning, it was about thrice as hard and I had to slow down from 120 km/h to 80 km/h.

01:03 — I have to add to my Ropecon memories. :P First of all, I actually met [Sarde] and [Plunderbunny]. Yeah, that was about it for meeting people. I saw a person walking around with a nice big purple tentacle. I also saw a group of ninjas abusing a big Spider-Man doll. I guess the most memorable one was a person dressed up as some skeleton warrior (well, just the huge skull and Dimmuburger or something written on the front) and going around saying "Iiiso hali!" ("biiig hug!") to people, hugging them and stroking their heads. XD
I sort of do hope that realism is just a passing fad.

20:56 — Ropecon's over for me. The people in costumes were worth the whole of it, again. XD Maybe some day I'll actually remember to bring a camera along. And I like Johanna Sinisalo's attitude.

19:44 — Well, I saw Sin City. And... yeah.

23:01 — I should be sleeping because I need to get up at about 6:30 tomorrow so that I can drive to Ropecon. I'm thinking I'll meet at least three people I know from the net... whee.
Huh. Sin City was good... sort of... but there was something that bothered me or something along those lines. And it just started feeling silly. O_o With luck, I'll have a nice nightmare. Could use one, at least.
