Painting the Horizon

Huh. Snowfall and thunder. You don't see that every day. :D

And this is no small amount of snow in the air, either; I can barely see across the street from my window.

So...much...snow. x_x

We had to shovel the driveway THREE TIMES today and I think it still hasn't stopped snowing (it's dark out so it's hard to tell). We so deserved that sauna afterwards.

tuinen, you were smart not to come over this weekend. I mean YEESH.

So! first actual day in the new apartment. I got kind of lost on my way home from school, lol. I'm still not sure about the shortest route to the Uni, but at least I've discovered a route that doesn't make any unnecessary zigzags or anything.

Still got to get my internet connection here. I'm currently using my sister's mobile Internet because she doesn't need it atm. I also have loads of unpacking to do and a bookshelf to put together, but I'm not sure how much of that I'll have the energy to do today. To be perfectly honest I'm not even sure if I can summon the will to cook. :V

ANYWAY if I'm not around much in the next few days, it's because I've got STUFF TO DO OMG.

Mitäköhän helvettiä nyt taas.

Joku Einstein ajaa ympyrää keskustassa ja tööttää mennessään. En näe sitä asunnon ikkunasta, mutta sillä ei voi olla mitään hyvää syytä tuohon koska se on äänestä päätellen jatkuvasti liikkeellä. Vieläpä ilman määränpäätä, jos siitä voi mitään päätellä että ääni vaan etääntyy ja tulee lähemmäs ja etääntyy.

Ja ikkunaa en voi sulkea koska muuten tänne paistuu.

Phew.

Just mailed my preliminary assignments to Turku. Here's to hoping I get invited to the entrance exam. :D If not, well, there's always Kajaani.

Anyway, now that's done, I can focus on the exhibition pieces again.

That's three times this year that I've forgotten I had put something in the oven and burned or at the very least lightly charred it.

I think this is where I invest in an egg timer. :|

Fuck yeah fever! I also have a cough.

I don't feel very sick though.

Let's see how this develops.

ETA: AHAHAHA I try to get some sleep and it turns out they've arranged a fireworks show practically next door. It started off sounding rather like a thunderstorm and escalated into BIG BOOMS that sound almost like we're being bombed. ♥ I love this town.

Oh well. I'm not that sleepy anyway.

I dislike the way the smell of one or more of my neighbours' cooking sometimes gets into my apartment. I have no clue how that happens, I just know that sometimes I smell foods that I've never had here.

Mostly it's just the smell of rich, spicy foods that makes me wish I had the money and inclination to make that kind of food.

Today, however, it's the smell of boiled cabbage. Ew.

Argh, mikä helvetti mustakin muka tulee isona kun mikään ei kelpaa eikä koskaan oo kivaa. Paitsi silloin kun ei tarvii tehdä mitään oikeeta. Mielellään vaan piirtäisin ja lukisin ja pelaisin loppuikäni.

Missä on Peter Pan ja kyyti Mikä-mikä-maahan kun sitä tarvitaan?

So I've been staying at my parents' since Sunday, seeing as how I've got no classes or anything this week.

Their Internet connection has been wobbly for a while and died on Tuesday. I'm actually writing this post from my grandparents' place. Incidentally, my grandmother's little poodle is really starting to show his age. :( He's been prone to coughing fits after running about (which he likes to do a lot) and just today, he seemed pretty dizzy after one of those fits. He swayed and generally looked very unsteady on his legs. Poor thing.


I bought a painting easel today, after years of pining for one. Also bought Guitar Hero yesterday, because nom. I will never get anything done ever again. I always seem to end up spending more money than I'm saving (in terms of food and such) when I visit home.

Been sketching a lot in the absence of the 'net, but I think those will have to wait until I'm back at my flat, with the reliable connection and everything.


Well, I guess that's all for now. Not sure when I'll be able to get online again. Peace out.
