Once you get used to using custom friends groups, the habit sticks. So now I've created lists of my FB 'friends'. I tried to keep things simple and thus created only seven lists. (I have nearly 20 custom friends lists on LJ. I actively use only a couple of them, but it makes no sense to delete the old ones.) Anyway, I created the lists on FB so ( 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... )

Yesterday I was at h_a_k_u and miyakomiya's going away costume party. My enthusiasm before the event was 0%, but I did end up having a good time, even when I was expecting otherwise. I have great friends. And the party did cheer me up considerably. My battery was running low (I need to buy a second battery for my camera), so I only took one photo there. Other ( 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... )

I've spent most of today downloading the VCA AMVs (winner and finalists) and studying. There are a couple of true gems among the videos but most of them are either boring, horrible or make my brain melt with all the flashing special effects.There's not much to mention about this week. I've just mainly been studying and gone to my hobbies (orchestra ( Read more... )

First of all, sorry about my last entry. It was meant to be friends only, not because of the text but because of the photos. You wouldn't have been able to see the photos unless your on my friends list. It usually doesn't take me this long to notice mistakes like this and fix them.Last night when I was coming home from h_a_k_u's party I nearly stepped on ( Read more... )

I haven't written in Finnish in what feels like ages and since it's Wednesday (well technically it's already Thursday, but...) I thought that I'd make an update in Finnish. I'm sure that you can manage without knowing every detail of my life. :p ( Read more... )

I forgot, if I mentioned about the demonstration against the new University law that was last Friday. It was fun this time as well and I took a lot of pictures once again, but I haven't had time to process those yet. The only thing that sucked was that I had to carry my viola case on my back the whole 2-3 hours that the demonstration took. My back ( Read more... )

Finally a song that inspires me to write.

I've been listening to Kitaro's music today. I've recently watched some random episodes of this old Japanese documentary about the Silk road and they have Kitaro's music in them. It was just so nostalgic and I mainly watched them for the music. I'm positive that we have some of Kitaro's music on some old ( Read more... )

If you're on my f-list, then please read the locked entry as it has more photos.Boy do I have something exciting for you people. I took part in a demonstration yesterday against reforms to the Finnish Universities Act, and then I got dragged along to occupy the administration buillding of the University of Helsinki. :o We occupied the building ( Read more... )
