21:44 --- my best Finnish essay, 19/25. ^_^ I don't think I can do better than that. Maybe I would be able to get 21 or even 22 if I didn't try to write things I don't know how to write and the subject was a good one.
21.45 -- Oh, and my future careers... I just got a paper in the mail, introducing the Technical Universisties in Finland. New goals: Computer geek, bioinformatics
18:46 -- My career choices. Scientist (physicist, biophysicist, geneticist or something), computer geek or a truck driver.
20:55 -- I fiddled around with my computer today, again. Had to detach the CD drive so we could reinstall things on the old computer. My dad figured I could take the extra floppy drive just for sake of it. I put everything back together and it lost all the hard drives (I had two). I then messed around with it for two hours and in the end I detached the other HDD which was empty, took everything out and put them back again. And it worked.
Plus, I think I figured out why my computer kept crashing. The HDD in use got too overheated in its small space. I'm not entirely sure though. The computer keeps getting moody sometimes, but at least Trillian works now.
Can't wait to read some linux installation docs. Now if I only had time for it... I'm aiming for the summer, if I don't get a summer job, which I could use because I need money. I want to buy a laptop. And another computer. Just for the sake of it.
21:51 -- It snowed about an inch today.
21:20 -- I am SO screwed. Screwed, messed up, depressed, sad, hopeless, cynical, passive, pathetic and so god-forsaken LAZY!!! ((>_<))
I'd write "*breaks down into a sobbing pile of tears*" if it didn't sound so silly.
When I was in elementary school and junior high, school was hell in the terms of classmates and other pupils. Teachers were overall nice, generally, school subjects were OK... High school. Classmates still suck on some part but they're bearable. Teachers just get better except that they don't recognize anything but their own subject. But the assignments are killing me!

13:49 -- You know you're addicted to the random member button when you come across your OWN house! Plus, I've gotten my little brother's (and a few other people's) house twice in a row...
23:09 -- And I thought...
This thing involves a long, one-sided, biased and rather belligerent conversation about my gender, an angry, ignorant and immature boy who refused to listen and a girl who seemed to listen but couldn't understand. I give her credit for at least someway trying to...
And of course I, not being native English speaker, couldn't defend my view... not that the other would've understood it anyway.
And I thought it couldn't get more hopeless than it already was... I'm depressed.
People can't understand the viewpoint of neutrality... And I'm infinitely doomed.
But, as I see all the sides of the thing, I don't want to change. I wouldn't give away the intelligence this kind of thing has offered me.
15:03 -- TOK presentation given yesterday. No more official public presentations for school!
18:25 -- The ethics of lying. My classmate who I am doing the presentation with is (way) too excited about the subject... >_> And I'm too unprepared... sigh.
Tomorrow this darned thing will be over and done with.
00:11 -- My Trillian doesn't work anymore.
TOK presentation..
15:32 -- I like physics. :) The current teacher does all kinds of nice experiments and even though they're simple, they can bring surprisingly lot of fun into a boring afternoon.
The biology teacher speaks half of the time about something else than biology, or something very little related to the currnt topic. Chemistry teacher goes into ethics. Heh heh heh HEH HAHAHA MUAHHAHHAHHAAA
I swear I'll never be bored again.
07:55 -- I think I'll never be bored again... @_X
19:45 -- I hate god-moders in RPGs. I hate them. I really do. They suck and are extremely stupid.
15:22 -- Yesterday I wrote a Finnish commentary about some crappy poem/song. I wonder if the teacher'll give me a four or a five for it. I also had a math test yesterday. It could've been nice if I had time to check what the test was about but nooo, too much work. I'll just hope I'll get around 50 per cent of it right. Today I did a Finnish essay. It felt like it went okay, but as the past has proven me, the Finnish teacher gets more critical day by day. Oh well.
Jos kukaan haluaa liittyä suomenkielisee
15:39 -- Here I sit, in school, writing my Finnish World Literature Assignment, waiting for my driving (theory) lessons, posting in a forum (look up) and thinking whether I should go eat in Hesburger or McDonald's.
00:22 -- The Swedish matriculation exam is now behind.
56/90 on the listening comprehension (I think) (that's bad). I think I did better with the written exam. I could've done a lot worse but I could've done better too... anyway. We had six hours to do the exam. I worked 2 hours and 48 minutes and twibbled my toes for 12 minutes. We weren't allowed to leave until three hours had passed.
Now, unless the universities lied, I don't ever have to study Swedish again! MUAAAHAAAHHAAA
7:52 -- Whopee, this stupid school library computer doesn't show any pictures! Even though it's supposed to show them and the viewing setting is on. Great.
14:07 -- I'll be starting driving school today. I get out from school at 15:45 and the driving (theory) lessons start at 17:10. Great. 1,5 hours for doing math homework. Whoopee! And the theory lessons last for about 2 hours or so, I think.
15:18 -- Great. lessons from 10 to 13:15, skip lesson, one lesson from 14:15 to 15. Last bus went at 14:45 and the teacher doesn't let people go because their bus leaves too early. Very nice! I'm sitting here waiting for my mom. one more hour...
I just got the permission for driving school and will be starting it on Monday.
The Swedish listening comprehension exam sucked. The tape was too loud and the teacher wouldn't tune it down. So, when I actually would've understood the stuff, I couldn't make up what they were saying because my ears hurt. Just perfect. Sigh...
Taksvärkki sucks too. So does TOK cruise. I'm not going there because I would be the only one who actually would want to listen to the lectures and not drink alcohol the whole day through. Why don't the teachers ask what's wrong with the TOK cruise since we're not going there?
I'm supposed to be doing my WLA and my other Finnish assignment. Borign! Zzzzz...
Yay, 50 more minutes!
15:33 -- I can't emphasize this enough and there's no point whatsoever in saying it etc. etc. but I'm just going to say it anyway. Elftown, when viewed with Netscape 4, is hell. No frames. No background. All buttons are one after another with a < br > separating them. Hooooolyyy cr-ap.
I saw Pirates of the Caribbean last weekend. It was an okay movie, and I liked the way Jack Sparrow moved. Heh heh.
Schoolwork is killing me. Oh yes. I'm at Pirkanmaan Taitokeskus to do some labs with bacteria and their computers are just a LITTLE bit outdated. I managed to grow nice bacteria though. The lake in my village, Työläjärvi, has relatively much E. colis but otherwise it seems to be free of bacteria. Those bacteria sure smell bad though.
I'm going to do the Finnish matriculation exam this fall (just the Swedish exam). Next Monday (8. 9.) I have listening comprehension or whatever you'd call it. On 19. 9. I have the 6-hour written exam. Whopee.
Oh and I read "Crime and Punishment" last Sunday! Ha! Thought I couldn't do it! *thwarts* It was okay, a good book, well-written and everything but the subject just doesn't really interest me. Oh well. Now I could rant about the snob(s) in our class but I think I'll save it until next time.
19.10 -- Let's see my homework list.

13.36 -- School... holy crap X_x I'm already bored, stressed and annoyed. The teachers are doing it on purpose. Damn. And the mIRC on these computers isn't working. Sigh... Driving lessons... not yet. Sighsighsigh. *SIIIIIIGH*
