22:40 — So, gift stash. Too big a T-shirt, gift card worth 25 €, 30 € money, a questionable DVD and a Lego bike. http://elftown.lysator.liu.se/stuff/20051225__0003.jpg Yeah >_>

18:04 — Damn powerouts. No school for two weeks! Whee! But damnit, I have to go to my uncle and princess cousin at 16 tomorrow. Oh well, at least there'll be food, though I won't like mot of it. Then we have to go to Joensuu, and I'll have to operate the internet through my dreadful GPRS connection. >_> Oh well, at least I'll have a connection. Hopefully.

19:21 — In other news, I just watched Narnia. Yay.

20:23 — In case anyone cared, I feel much better now. Whoo. No physics lectures on Thursday, even if that means I gotta go there at 8 tomorrow.
Some time ago I got a new shelf and organized the empty boxes I have stored on the top of my shelves. I detached my small shelves, took two away and reattached the third. I attached it right by the door at a height where I wouldn't hit my head on it even if I were bouncy. Now, that's crucial because I'm not that tall. I specifically told this to my parents because I thought it was funny. Now, today my dad came into my room and when he left, he hit his head on the shelf, just like I planned. I was amused as hell. XD

22:48 — I spend too much time not-sleeping during schoolweeks. Three toes on my right foot are being infectious assholes. I have to say though that I'm more concerned about my mom's reaction to it than the whole thing itself.
OMFGG. Gollum porn. >__> Hah, caught your attention? :P

22:42 — I was really damn pissed yesterday. However, no, The RPG Incident didn't cause it, but bloody damnit that didn't make things better either. I think it's actually good that I've now fogotten what made things so bloody crappy yesterday. I know the several factors involved, but not the actual cause unless it is something of the several factors. I can't really remember much. Nevertheless, I felt totally crap yesterday right from the morning as far as I remember. Blah blah blah.
I drew a lot too. At least that made me feel better. I continued that today. I drew six or seven sketches and threw them around at people in digital form. Here's a sketch of a healed Vineg if you didn't happen to have enough of that. http://elftown.lysator.liu.se/stuff/2005121803_ROL_Vineg.gif

15:43 — Whee! Whee! I bought a new keyboard, USB hub and an Elfquest comic. Bounce. No more worn out keys.

14:54 — Water came back about 10 hours after it was cut. Which was a long time ago already, but thought it'd be worth meantioning. In other news, I've been programming a lot. Whee :D

21:24 — Kudos to our water-distributing company. We've been out of water for over 6 hours, and while we don't really need that much water, it's damn annoying to know you can't have any and not have any when you really need it.

17:04 — Murphy pwned me today. Actually it started already yesterday, when I started seriously working on another new programming assignment. "Make a program that prints the nth line of Pascal's triangle, with three functions." Okay, I wrote that, except it only had one function for the factorial and I couldn't figure out any other reasonable function. Any more would also increase the program's length. Let's give a hand to the program designer.
Today I drove to the university, and after I was done there, I'd got get [Gastogh] from school. Okay, I left the university late. Then it seemed like rush hour in traffic. After a few kilometers all the snow from the top of my car bulked on my windshield when I decelerated, because I hadn't wiped it off because that had never happened to me. The car wipers were far too puny to wipe that mass off. Fortunately I could still make a left to a relatively peaceful road (from the highway!), but after that left turn the road turned right and I saw nothing. Well, I stopped, cleaned the damn windshield, turned around and continued is the rush hour. Which made me arrive damn late, naturally. Krhm... if you're late, Murphy makes sure to take everything out of it and make you arrive even more late.
Okay, back to programming now.

23:53 — Today I went to the math course 2 exam. Didn't go as well as the first one, meaning I'm certain I don't get full points and I couldn't answer to one part of one exercise, and I think two other parts of other exercises are a bit fumbled. Either way, I think I'll pass at least. The roads were slippery and it's started snowing full-time. Sort of. I've cleaned the yard twice already, and damn that snow's heavy. And the damn bushes/trees in front of our front yard (they grow in the gutter, or more precisely right between the gutter and the grassy part of the yard) bend to the yard so that I can't really push the loads of snow where it belongs because otherwise I'll damage the tree things and/or it becomes even harder to push the snow further away. Oh well.
Secondly, I watched a British documentary called "Secret Intersex". I suppose it was okay, but sure can't beat the internet when it comes to information. I suppose it's good that it gave a mostly personal view from the people, though, which is something I haven't yet quite ound in the net yet. Then again, there were parts in it that I just shook my head at. And let's not talk about the Finnish translation. English is a crappy language and they didn't try to hide it in the documentary, but the Finnish translator couldn't even have bothered to check how "correct" the terms were... Oh well, at least I know that Finnish is awesome.
I need a keyboard that makes less noise. This damn thing is hurting my ears, damnit.

00:59 — Excuse me while I squee. I'm way too damn fascinated about telepaths. I've been sitting here, reading a book about things set in the universe of Babylon 5, and the stuff about telepaths. I want more, damnit. Why can't there be hundred books instead of three? I suppose the book isn't written that well, stars know how I could ever notice such a thing, but I'm so interested in telepathy that I'd read anything half-decent anyway.
More to the point, why does the idea of telepathy fascinate me so much? I suppose it's either a personal quirk or something or then I'm just so socially inept when it comes to people that telepathy starts sounding way too nice.
Now excuse me while I fantasize about telepaths.

17:55 — The darkness caught me once again. I thought it was about 20 or something, even though I just got up at around half to 12. Either way, it started snowing yesterday and we have a niiice pile on the ground. I did the physics half-exam and while it certainly could've gone better, it also could've gone worse. Semi-sensible answers to 4 of the 5 questions isn't that bad, I suppose. And the one question where I didn't get an answer, I drew free-body diagrams and called it good. Maybe I'll get a point for that. I ate too much candy, but staying in bed 11 hours kinda drained that out anyway.

Currently I'm really liking that we call the vacation joulu (literally Yule). To me it means 2 weeks to role-play, write, draw and program!

21:15 — And I spent another 12 hours in school. Left home at about 9, did math from 10 to 11, had programming lecture from 12 to 14 and played from 15 to 20. 5 awesome hours of gaming! There was one scene where we players just laughed our lungs out. Our characters had tied up a conscious gnoll who had surrendered and left it lying about while they went out to explore a teleporting device thing. Well, that 5-headed hydra thing didn't look nice, so they decided to leave. They searched a tunnel that had a damn huge spider in there and then thought it would be a jolly good idea to feed the gnoll to the spider! Well, they argued there for a moment about who's going to throw it to the spider and thought maybe they should just use the teleport or just kill it and then throw it to the spider. Okay, then we laughed like hell. Eventually our characters did throw the gnoll to the spider, but the ranger started feeling pity and wasted three arrows to shoot the gnoll dead anyway. And we laughed.

18:29 — I thought for a long time nothing drastic ever happened around me or my family... But yesterday I heard that in 1999 (or something) a friend of my parents had committed suicide by shooting. Oh woe!
Krhm. Yeah. Big whoopee.

20:35 — I really, really should stop lazying around and do some physics and math and physics labs, even... Sigh.
[Gastogh] is now 18 and therefore we bought insane amounts of candy. I feel sick after eating so much of it. We're also watching more Farscape episodes, which is taking more from my time. Whiiiiine! I rearranged some shelves with my dad and now our video and DVD collections actually fit properly on the shelves again. I also used my amazing artistic and engineering skills to rearrange outdoor lights on the spruce in our front yard. Damned exciting.
I'm sure I had something interesting to say but I forgot.

18:51 — It snowed yesterday, again. It was funny, when I walked from the university building to my car, it stared to rain very thin rain. Then as I got from Hervanta, it was just raining normally. By the time I got to Lielahti, it was raining wet flakes and a bit of water. By the time I was near to home, it was snowing a lot. That continued.
Today when I left university it wasn't snowing at all, in fact it looked like a normal summer day, except what with being around 0°C and the snow on the grass. By the time I got to my car, it had gotten yellowish, like a smoky evening or something. By the time I got on the highway (50 m) it was totally gray and after 100 m of driving I noticed several batched where it was snowing and where it wasn't. after about 1 km is was snowing like there was no tomorrow and that went on and off until I got off the highway to my village road, where the raining stopped altogether.
STARS I love Finnish weather.
In other news, I returned three things involving my study plan today. One, the explanation why I crapped my first year so that I could continue getting my student aid money thing. Two, for the request to change degree structure. Three, for a stupid "Introduction to studying in university" course assignment. On programming class I still thought about making a program for developing a certain level character for Realms of Lemire.

19:24 — Oh, and I slept in again and missed a physics lecture. I need to move the damn clock down.

01:57 — I went to Tampere with [Gastogh] and [Levoton] today and in four hours, we managed to spend 80 euros per hour. I bought a comic and a book. I left the book on the kitchen table while I went to watch a movie, only to find the book stolen by my dad. When questioned about it, he claimed it as his fathers' day present. Whopee. I got the book for free anyway.
