So I finished watching Stargåte Universe last week. I've now watched the whole Stargåte franchice, except for the last Stargate SG-1 movie and the cartoon Stargåte Infinity, which I'm not going to watch. I started this project in 2010, so I've been watching it for over two years now. There have been some gaps in the middle, but I still kinda empty ( Read more... )

At the cottage I read an article on Tieteen kuvalehti (a Finnish science magazine) about how semen acts as an antidepressant in women. I finally remembered to search the net and it seems to be based on legitimate scientific research. I wonder, if I could find that original article at the Uni library... Nope, they don't have access to that journal. ( Read more... )

Okey, so three weeks is too long to not check on the sailing boat. When I went there today after choir practise the poor boat was tilting badly and so full of water that I was afraid that it would've sunk had I boarded it. Have you ever tried to lift one end of a sailing boat that's full of water? Well let me tell you that it was very heavy work, ( Read more... )

I thought that I'd give an update on this past month, just the choice bits in no particular order. We had a choir camp this weekend, which was a total blast. We learned three new songs (I actually learned five as I missed most of the practises in April). I learned that you get pretty out of breath, if you sing in the sauna. We're probably going to ( Read more... )

I just uploaded two months worth of photos from my camera and there were a lot of beautiful sunset/sunrise photos among them, but the one that I took last week takes the cake, no question about it. Some of you are probably familiar with the Golden hour of photography. I think that in Finland it depends on the time of the year how long the "hour" ( Read more... )

I'm off to the cottage with MM and mom. I'll be back on Tuesday. Laters!

Please answer my poll.

Poll Pick a city.We spent the weekend at the cottage. We took the sofa, that we bought last Summer to replace the old sofa, there. Another question answered: you can transport a sofa on a rowing boat. :p On Sunday we went to grandma's place to celebrate mother's day and my cousins' birthdays ( Read more... )

Okey, something is making my Firefox freeze so badly that it freezes my whole computer and I have to boot it. I'm thinking that the problem has something to do with NoScript, because Firefox freezes when I allow some site to run scripts (temporarily or for good). But I've been using NoScripts for a long time, at least a year, and I haven't had ( Read more... )

I'm back from my weekend cottage trip with h_a_k_u, miyakomiya and her kid. I actually lugged two big bags worth of firewood there. I hope that I don't ever have to do that again. -_- We had a beautiful night sky one of the nights. The half moon reflected on the water and there were a lot more stars showing than I can see at our backyard, but the Milkyway didn't ( Read more... )

People on my flist, please read this locked version of this same post as it has more photos.

Here are some photos from our cottage trip two weeks ago when we were there for a week. There are photos of people working on things at the cottage, food photos, sunset photos, nightless night photos and photos of stuff at the cottage since I intend to ( Read more... )
