The mall was even more packed today than what it was yesterday. But that's no surprise, I mean what else can one do on a Sunday than go shopping, especially since no other malls / shops are yet open throughout the week... :D We did spend a good two hours there, though. I found a pink dress from Vila that I had previously noticed at Stockmann, and ( Read more... )

I am getting a little anxious about my future.... once again. Three more weeks at the museum, and I'll graduate. (Let's fucking hope I will! Something could always go terribly wrong you know, like me not having completed enough courses or something.) But assuming that the graduation does go well, what will I do next? This question depresses me ( Read more... )

It's not like I haven't done this before... I mean I have skipped lots of school during my life... I also skipped a couple of days during my last internship, without contacting the hotel... and I even skipped work once, without contacting anyone! So why now, even though I sent an email to the manager, I feel somewhat weird about not going? If only ( Read more... )

Although I hate crowds, especially at big sales, I must say that one day I would love to be in Helsinki during Hullut Päivät. :D No, I am not crazy, I know it must be fucking chaotic and I'm sure I would go pretty much insane there... but it would be wonderful. Yesssss, I'm sure it would!

Anyway, when the (really exciting and fresh looking) catalog ( Read more... )

This morning I couldn't have been any less bothered to wake up at 7.20 so I slept in, going late to work.

I am now seriously considering changing my internship place... not that the museum wouldn't be an interesting working environment, it's just that I am not learning! And I want to learn... I need as much actual work expertice as possible if I ( Read more... )

I've been on the computer basically all day today. Sounds somewhat boring, I know... but it hasn't been too much so since I have been enjoying Photoshop... It's funny how you can pass hours on end with that program. If only I had my own computer here...! This is slow, hasn't got my media library, and I cannot really download anything. "/ I want to ( Read more... )

Although at times I feel somewhat frustrated at work, all in all I have had a nice time so far. The thing that bothers me is, they cannot really give me any special projects or such because I don't have any expertice in what comes to working at a museum. Thus I am given all the basic stuff like mailing, organizing some files, whatever easy (and ( Read more... )

Jejee, we're going to see Torture Killer tonight! :D Hopefully I won't bee too drunk, act too stupid... you know, the whole deal. Anyway, I'm just about to leave to Miia's place. I had a hard time deciding what to wear since I am used to dressing in color but I don't want to stand out from the black wearing crowd too much. I really hope we'll have ( Read more... )

I had a great time cleansing some ancient bones today at the museum. :)))) The bones need to be filed, so I am helping this other trainee to cleanse and tag them... and it's like the coolest thing ever. Haha, I was so excited and I seriously hope I'll get to continue tomorrow! I've always been interested in archeology, too, and cleansing the bits ( Read more... )

I finally got that new camera I have been talking about... and the one I ended up choosing was a Canon PowerShot SX110 IS. It's a little bigger than most of the compact digis on the market but there's a reason for that and I don't mind the size since it does fit in a normal purse / tote bag. I haven't really tried it well yet, I just took a couple ( Read more... )
