Today

Yesterday I wrote down one of my stories. It's a bit sad that one can never write the whole story of one's life. That'd be awesome. I'd love to do that. Sadly it'd take years to just write about everything that has happened up to this point and the story continues as long as you live. I could literally write nonstop about my life for months without any problem with coming up with things to mention. But there's no time for that.

Anyway, yesterday I started quite late so it was almost early when I finished. But I completed one whole epoch! I'm a bit proud of myself. Usually I never can finish any of my writings.

Today was just awesome. I did maybe half of all the things I had planned to do, and did them with less success than hoped. I phoned dad and got reminded that it's mom's birthday in the weekend. Too bad I'm not going home before the sixth of December. :( BUT I made her a card and I'm gonna post it tomorrow. And I got to meet my loved one on orchestra practice! <3

Happy end. :)

Crayon melting art

Today I finally forced myself to finish the melted-crayon-artwork that I have had in mind for months. It wasn't as easy as it looks (YouTube) but I managed quite well and am happy with the result. :)

Glued the crayons to the canvas with allround adhesive. The elephant silhouette is drawn a Stabilo OHPen universal (permanent).

To melt the crayons I used a hair dryer with full heat on. I did this on the balcony so that the smell of melting crayons wouldn't be everywhere. The melted crayon splattered a little from the edges so I covered the floor and the wall the canvas leaned against with papers.

The result! Awesome rainbow rain! I already received an order to make one of these to a friend. Christmas present idea, check! ;)

Julklappar och bokslut

Jag sitter och skriver bokslut för orkestern där jag är kassör. Varför har jag lämnat det till sista minuten? Varför gör jag det alltid?!?! Glögg och pepparkakor hjälper inte mot huvudvärken och ångesten som bokslutet orsakar mig. Jag försökte med att lyssna på lite julsånger också men de stör mera än de bättrar humöret, så jag gav upp med dem.

Nästa veckoslut är det Florakörens och Brahe Djäknars Adventskonsert i Åbo domkyrka. Ett måste för att få julstämning inför december!

Min Önskelista:

Cell Block Tango

Vi kommer att uppträda med Cell Block Tango på Axelnatten. Det kommer att ta en stund innan vi får den övad så att vi täcks uppträda med den inför publik (vilket nog är målet). Jag vill att vi har med åtm delar av dansen! Det kan bli jättetufft. Eller total katastrof...

Cute Matty B. Raps

I was strolling around on YouTube today and I found this super cute boy rapper MattyB. He has been rapping since he was 7 and I think he's about 9 nowadays. Check out this guy, he's cute as can be!

He does a lot of Justin Bieber's music and he knows Bieber's moves too!

Peace, guys!

Life is like a piano

Life is like a piano. What you get depends on how you play it.

Calm down, girl

Today I've again panicked for the said lunch date. When I came home from school I couldn't really concentrate on writing anything on my homework, instead I vacuumed the whole apartment, cooked, organized the piles of paper on my desk and continued on an artwork I've started on about a week ago. (I'm gonna melt crayons with a hair drier)

When I was finished with all this my friend called me and we talked for some time about my feelings about this date and about some pictures of us that someone had posted on Facebook. After that I called my best friend and invited myself over to her place.

We talked for about four hours. After two hours I was totally calm. Talking about difficult things helps you to cope with them. Talking about whatever else than the problem at hand is a good way to get distracted.

(Look, I think I finally found out how to insert a video to this blog! Videos to be expected)

Paus

Jag funderar på att ta paus i studierna. Ett mellanår eller nåt. Jobba lite och samla tankarna. Helst nu genast efter jul. För jag orkar inte. Jag bara orkar inte just nu!
Jag sitter som kassör i en nybildad styrelse och ska försöka fundera ut vad jag egentligen vill och dessutom har jag världens identitetskris på gång.

(Parentes: Ellen DeGeneres är min nya idol. Hon är freakin' hilarious.)

Shit is going down. I'm having a first (and hopefully not last) lunch date with someone I like very much and I don't know how to act. I don't know that much about this person (yet). I'd like to, of course, but I don't know how to do my questioning without making an interview out of our date. We're both pretty quiet and I'm terrified the conversation will die out and it'll just be embarrassing. But too much questions might get disturbing, and no one can read that poker face (me neither), so I wouldn't know where the line goes. So keeping away from lines but still keeping up the conversation? Can I manage that?

No pressure, my future lies in my own shaky hands and one mistake might ruin all the chances I ever had. Well, I guess the main problem is that I don't really know if we play for the same team (you know). If I get that wrong it could become very very awkward...

I'm almost panicking!
