Hauskaa ja hyvää itse kullekin!

Happy New Year to everyone!

Hee hee

2007-12-11T15:12:43Z

Eh..

Happy birthday to me..

2007-03-15T21:41:42Z

It's official, i'm 30.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Yes. *sigh*

Update, down or middle? Pick one! =)

Finally there's no more unpacked moving boxes in the bedroom. I would still like to have more cupboard space (and bookshelves) but that has to wait until i have a little more money at hand.

The kittens have now the whole apartment as a playground. Although, they will stay in the bedroom at night and at times i'm not at home. The past two months have gone so quickly by that i can hardly understand that the kittens are already 7 weeks old.

At the moment i'm on a sick leave from work. My back started to ache when i moved (it's already been over a month!) and it still hasn't settled down.

Today i noticed that one of my neighbors has a netted balcony. I should probably go and ask how they did the netting since it looks quite secure (and maybe they would like to help.. =P).

Tarvitseeko kukaan valkoista työpöytää. Täältä löytyisi avaamattomissa pakkauksissa kaksi kappaletta. Saa hakea pois, en halua niistä mitään, mutta en viitsisi ihan roskiinkaan heittää.

New year, what a happy thing

2006-12-31T19:49:03Z

Oh, how i wish that things will only get better after this. Happy new year to everyone!

P.S. Remember, when ever you decide to break up with your spouse, make sure you do it The Right Way and you'll live happily ever after..

P.S.1 Note, I'm drunk and will regret this post in the morning.

Early bird and so on..

2006-12-29T05:52:25Z

Got up early this morning. I still could have slept an hour or so but one of the cats is in heat (her crying is quite effective dream stopper) and i was hungry..

I spent the christmas with Pasi and his family. We went to Hamina (never been there before) and stayed at Pasi's brother. Even though meeting new people can be stressful i had really great time there. And somehow the christmas felt like the ones we had when i still lived with my parents.

Two more days at work and then it's new year. Let's see what comes out of that..

Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!

A long time in silence

2006-11-23T17:59:59Z

A long story short..

- i have no net at home
- i'm moving on december 1
- i have three new kittens
- i have a new boyfriend

I am sad, i am feeling guilty about a lot of things, i am regretting doing things in a certain way (at least a little bit) but.. sometimes things happen this way. If anyone has ever done breaking up The Correct Way, please raise your hand and i'll give you a cookie.

P.S. Yes, i'm feeling all better now, one might even say i'm happy. Thank you for asking. =)

Rise and fall

2006-10-26T11:15:03Z

I've been quiet for over a month now. A lot has happened but i'm not sure if i'm up to talking about it. So, let me just say, that there's gonna be a great change in my life in the near future.. I hope it's gonna be a good change.

At the moment i'm both sad, scared and excited.

Indian summer, here we come!

2006-09-12T18:45:02Z

Starting the atkins diet from the beginning. The summer went by with lots of carbs and therefore gained few kilos back. But i have decided to lose all of my extra weight so here i go again.

Today is the second day. And i must say that it isn't as hard as it was the first time i started this. Maybe because i know what to wait for and maybe because last weekend i ate so much carbs that i was almost feeling sick. =D

Keep your fingers crossed for me!

On the other news we got a new sofa. Well not exactly new, since we bought it from Ekotori but new to us. It's sunflower yellow and we both love it. It's like a little sun in our living room. <3

I haven't done any knitting or crocheting in years but this summer i've finished one sweater, a crochet jacket and a crochet scarf already. My newest project is a carpet made of crochet flowers, although it's not gonna be on the floor but on the wall. I got the idea while surfing the net for crochet patterns.

Picture of the original carpet.

I started doing this with turquoise yarn but i think this will be for the practice. I'll probably end up doing it with dark brown.

Here's a picture of a carpet that i would also like to make and actually keep on the floor.

To live is to die

2006-08-23T19:11:31Z

My grandmother died. August 12th. She was 84. The funeral was last saturday.

I was expecting it to happen but wasn't really prepared for it. The worst part.. I was going to see my parents that weekend and had decided to go there on saturday but mom called me on thursday and told me that it's likely granny won't live over the weekend. So, i went there on friday night instead.

When i got there i got the urge to go see granny at the hospital but since it was very late, i didn't know where in the hospital she was and so on.. I decided to go there in the morning. And what happened? 7.20 AM the phone rang. It was my uncle. He said only that "she's gone" and hung up. I'm not sure if he even knew it was me on the phone.

I didn't know what to feel. Last time i saw granny, she still recognized me and smiled. The last memory i have of her is the smile. And somehow i'm so very very glad that it is this way. But at the same time i feel so enormously guilty about not going to see her that night. Guess part of me didn't want to or something..

The funeral was beautiful and peaceful. I got to hug all of granny's five sisters (she was the oldest) and it helped a little. Just wish i could have hugged granny for the one last time.

Likey, licky, like lick

2006-08-10T10:25:28Z

Just had to get to use my new icon. Cute, ne?! =) Would like to know whose the master mind behind it though..

2006-07-30T20:36:42Z

I'm totally in love with Tsubasa Chronicles. <3 F-a-i <3

I luuuuuuuuuuv fai/kuro-rin *giggle* Gimmegimmegimme!

*sigh*

Just needed to get that out of my system. Thanks.

Aaaargh!

2006-07-28T18:18:00Z

Don't try it if you're in a hurry to go some where or you have important things to do.
Consider yourself to be warned!

Where did the time go?

My dreams are gonna be filled with Jack Sparrow..

2006-07-12T22:35:45Z

Loved it. I wanna go to see it again. Like tomorrow. Or right away, now. Too bad they don't have night shows.

Summer, oh summer and laptop..

2006-07-09T18:10:35Z

Inside the house is boiling hot but outside is just perfect. At least now that the sun has gone a little lower and behind the building.

Fluffy is a real joy now, since i can irc, surf the net and write livejournal outside.. and i can watch anime here, too. *content sigh* Life's great!

I found a pink case. It's going to be only temporary until i find better one. It isn't actually meant for a laptop but it's quite thick and water proof, so it'll do.

Gakuen Heaven is really going to end after episode 13. Just watched ep 12 today and there it was after the ending song. Well, at least i can watch OKHC. It should have 26 ep.

Justin Timberlake's new single is okay. Good for dancing..

Almost forgot, bought myself a belt. Don't know if i have ever owned one before. JOY! It's pink, ofcourse. :P

The best way to enjoy ones vacation? Be SICK!

2006-07-08T20:31:53Z

Yep. Caught a nice summer flue. Hooray.

Been locked in for three days and you can guess i'm going insane here.. Watched Mirage of Blaze for the second time. Gods, that series is a killer every time. Why did it end after one season, Why?!

Also am waiting last two episodes of Gakuen Heaven, hope they don't stop it after 13 episodes. I need boy luuv!

Oh, and i did find a new series, Ouran Koukou Host Club. There's new eye-candies for me, for meeeeee. <3 *sigh* Okay, for us. :P

Got Fluffy back and it's fine and well. They put new 80 GB hard drive in it and everything seems to be okay now. Hope this lasts! Now i seriously need to get a case. Can't go carrying Fluffy around in my arms all the time.. well i could and already have but it's not very wise.

Spent the weekend in a cat show and at my parents home. Was nice to be there after such a long time. Should go back there in a week. Gaah, don't want to! A weekend with my mom can be really tiring.. Oh well, i'm on vacation, can handle anything..

Miikka went to his friends place and left me home alone. Well, am not home anymore. I'm obviously trying to avoid the inevitable, should start making the cat-run.. I will finish it this summer, it's a promise.

Inuyasha

2006-06-28T16:27:57Z

My Inuyasha anniversary flew by so quickly that i forgot it! Shame on me. Since i don't have the date written down anywhere, i had to reconstruct last june from scratch. It was the night between 18th and 19th of June 2005.

I don't remember why i was alone at that time, but i know i had drunk some cider.. At some point i found an AMV from my computer.. Creed - My sacrifice. I had had that video on my comp for at least a year but out of the blue the AMV hit me hard. "I need to see this anime!" The rest is history. I spent the next two weeks watching Inuyasha. 167 episodes straight. Except the time i had to go to work (i think i didn't skip midsummer eve because of IY), i don't think i slept that much. *sigh* oh, the happy days!

Anyhow, a whole year of Inuyasha!

It's summer if i say so!

2006-06-28T16:02:42Z

Despite the fact that sun is not quite shining out side, there's a heavy wind and overall it's really cold, we barbecued today. Was fun. Reminded me of late summer in Kokkola during Venetsialainen. Without the mosquitoes, which is nice.

Am actually hoping that the weather would stay the same for the rest of the week. I'm supposed to travel by train on friday and that really sucks if it's too hot.

Fluffy is at the repair shop. Keep your fingers crossed that it's only the hard drive.. Should get it back early next week.. Fluffy. <3

Look out, the road is slipery when wet!

2006-06-27T20:43:11Z

I want to go to Japan! But not into a car that drifts on the side of a mountain.

Since i've seen the first two movies i had to go see the third one, too. And wasn't it the best of the three?! (well, almost.. *cough*nothing*cough*beats*cough*vin*cough*diesel*cough*..)

If you're into pretty cars (men), japanese high school girls and their uniforms (men), motor engine going roar (men), beautiful drifting sequences (men) and perhaps an Initial D (men), GO SEE THE MOVIE! If none of the mentioned make you tick.. There were also quite a lot of men (good looking) and VIN DIESEL!

Since he wasn't credited in any trailers and i really don't go snooping in imdb.com before hand, I DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS IN IT!!! The last five minutes of the movie i was giggling on my seat and could hardly stop squeeing for joy. VIN DIESEL!!1 <3 *happy sigh*

Even without 'the biggest spoiler' the movie was most enjoyable. The first half an hour was spent wondering why Sean Boswell (main character) looked so familiar. Then it hit me. The actor, Lucas Black, was Caleb in American Gothic. (Don't know if anyone recognizes the series since it wasn't that popular, but i still get the creeps when thinking about it. *shiver* Horror seems to have that kind of effect on me.)

Also loved the driving sequences. The first scene in Japan was something that left my mouth hanging open. Beautiful, like ballet with cars! And there were more of the same stuff. Five to six cars drifting down the mountain road in the middle of the night in total synchrony. Wow!

Of course the basic plot wasn't anything amazing but i didn't go to see the movie because of the plot.
Cars, drifting, competition, cars, men, burning rubber, cars, pheromones, oh and did i already mention.. cars.. And of course lots of women in mini skirts (if a 10 cm of fabric around ones hips is counted as a skirt :P). Funny enough, the only 'panty shot' was underlined and happened at the beginning of the film when they still were in Usa.

One thing bothered me, though. Where was the fan service for the female audience?! Don't go looking for shirtless men, there wasn't any.

Giggle giggle giggraah..

2006-06-05T23:38:57Z

I'm not drunk, just a little tipsy.. *giggle*

Miikka is at the night sift. I went to celebrate our friend's graduation. Was a little late because of work (and a phone call from mom) so i missed the grilling part. But, we talked a lot, watched Jurassic Park (almost to the end) together and i drunk two ciders and little red wine.. Guess i should prepare myself for a migraine attack. Oh well.. Had fun! *grin*

Our bed is quite empty and i miss Miikka. Hope he wakes me up in the morning when he comes home..

Good night.

Cut cut.. CUT!

2006-05-30T18:25:40Z

Okay, i did it. Now i've got "summer hair". I love it. Miikka hates it.

Me: How many centimeters you think was cut off?
Miikka: Too many.

Oh well, it's my head and my hair. It's still a little under my ears so i don't think it's even really short. And i have fringe. Haven't had that since second grade (like 20 years or so ago).

Now i need to decide the colour. Will it be pink? Would love that..

Yo ho yo ho

2006-05-29T18:21:08Z

I rented Pirates of the Caribbean video (they didn't have the dvd on the store, apparently somebody rent it two years ago and they haven't seen it since). I feel quite pathetic, but i really need to see the film. So, bite me!

Of to drooling after Jack Sparrow..... *dripdrip*

(I'm seriously considering cutting my hair short.)

Hard Rock Hallelujah!

2006-05-28T18:31:04Z

I WAS there! You can check it from tv. I did. I could count out at least three times that i was on the screen. My 15 seconds of fame.. *giggles*

Oh, i'm so very glad that we went. Lordi was great. We made a guinness world record in karaoke. *gasp* :P There was "Tervasaaren kesäteatteri". Loved it! =)

We managed to get train tickets back the same evening (great!) and were forced to listen to a bunch of drunken people yelling hard rock hallelujah half of the ride (not so great!).

On the other news, it seems i've lost my Pirates of the Caribbean dvd. *wails* I did lend it to Miikka's parents but i'm quite certain that we already got it back. At this rate i might be forced to buy a new one.
