(no subject)
Going to Suvi's (punainen) dance school's shows makes me wish I could dance. It's not a serious wish, but just seeing people move so prettily makes me wish I could, do. Oh well. I did ballet for two years when I was tiny and I sucked then already. I also sucked at disco dance and basically everything which requires a sense of rhythm and I still do.
Two mock exams over, five left. History tomorrow and I haven't studied enough but I guess it'll be alright, somehow. I don't think they expect us to remember a lot of details but rather to have a general understanding which I think I got by listening during the lessons.
Then English, then a day off, then German and finally dreaded chemistry. Monday the 6th is free (Independence Day) and math is on Tuesday the 7th. The last exam. Looking forward to that feeling I'll have then.
I really really want to write a the novel. It's the novel because its characters have been living in my head for some two years but I only get them on the screen partially, not as a whole novel, even though I have the entire plot planned and sketched. I just need to know whether it should have a happy or a sad ending. Happy ending would make the tone of the book lighter and more cheerful and make the book fairly entertaining. A sad ending would provide more depth, more credibility. Yet I might fail at writing a deep, meaningful thing so maybe I should stick to entertainment.

THREE THINGS I THINK YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO:
1. A Very Special Christmas collection... traditional Christmas songs sung by 80's artists, published in 1987, nothing can beat it
2. White Christmas by Bing Crosby. That just is my all time Christmas song favourite.
3. A lot of random 80's stuff.
THREE THINGS I DON'T THINK YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO EVER:
1. Anything that is a hit and is played on radio all the time
2. Anything related to Idols or Popstars
3. Anything by Tapani Kansa, Kari Tapio or Jari Sillanpää. Mom has the Christmas albums of all those and soon I'm forced to hear her play them over and over again till Christmas.

THREE BEVERAGES YOU DRINK REGULARLY:
1. Coffee
2. Milk
3. Water
THREE SHOWS YOU WATCHED WHEN YOU WERE A KID:
1. The Moomins (I have 11 VCR tapes full of them. They shaped my childhood- I can make references to them any time, also quotations. I grew up during the Moomin boom... most of my generation were told that things will happen "after two episodes of Moomin" when they didn't understand the concept of an hour)
2. The Smurfs
3. My Little Pony (yes, everything comes here late, I was a kid in the early 90's watching cartoons made in the 80's)
