raven
Your soul is bound to the Third Totem,
Grandfather Thunder: The Raven
.

Grandfather Thunder appears as a flock of
ultramarine ravens. He embodies reverence,
leadership, honor, and inspiration
. He is
associated with the color ultramarine, the
season of winter, and the element of water.
His downfall is egocentrism.

You are most compatible with Wolves and Owls.

I have a shitload of schoolwork to do. Projects, wordlists, grammar,... and testweek is here in a jiffy, so I'll be totally in trouble if I don't study tomorrow, and the whole weekend and...
But then again I know something important will arrive (like Father's Day and stuff) and in the end I won't even open my books. And I haven't even found anything for my Papa yet.

My sister baked buns and the whole house smells so good it's killing me. It sucks to be allergic. There is this huge pile of absolutely delicious little buns just waiting in the kitchen and if I eat even one of them, I'll be so sick it's not even funny. Well, I still have some lemon curd left. I wonder if it goes well with rice cakes?

I'm so insane today. No control over my body. I think that is why this http://www.cnn.com/2003/US/Northeast/10/31/crime.girls.reut/index.html amused me.

My computer has a virus. Well, four Swen As, to be exact. /And I can't get them out!/ My Norman can't kick them out and Ad-aware goes into a big knot every time it gets even close to the damn things. And I haven't yet found them manually. I'm so angry at myself and my good-for-nothing firewall.

I made some lemon curd today. OMG it's so good (and has so many calories). Hmm we still have some lemons left. What should I do?
Yeah, I'm focusing on totally inane stuff, so that I wouldn't have the time to do my schoolwork and other important stuff. I know I'm lame.

Halloween went by. I was just at home doing absolutely nothing (okay, math homework, to be precise) and enjoyed having some time for myself.

It seems I didn't fuck up my German test and essay as bad as I thought. I got 21-/24 from the test and teacher said the essays went well. That's good, because I needed some cheering up.

Oh god, save me. My mother is listening to Sävelradio and they are going through requested songs. I just can't take any more Kari Tapio. (My mother doesn't like him either, but still refuses to change the channel).

My Friday was so fucked up from 12.15 on. After failing my German test and screwing up the essay about 'What family means to you' (Was bedeutet die Familie für dich?) and then missing my buss to work, sleepwalking through working hours and ending up home I was so depressed (I said my emotions swing fast) I tried eating a bit of this jelly (that included some milk), getting an allergic reaction and a friggin' rash. And then for some reason I had a wonderful nightmare and woke up five times because 1 my foot was benumbed or 2 my wrist cracked. So now I'm pouring it all on you, to get it away from my mind. Enjoy some selfpity and rambling.

My sister had her gymnastics competition today. And her team won! I'm so proud of her. Now she is walking around the house with her medal on and being proud as she can be. But I really understand her. She moved to her new team just three months ago, and this was there first competition. And they won 17 other teams, including two from Lahjan Tytöt. Though I'm not that good in sports, doesn't mean I wouldn't appreciate those who are skilled in doing goals or turning somersaults.

And while I'm ranting about my siblings, I might as well add a warning to all thee, who are considering becoming teachers. My brother has this German teacher, who (according to my brother) looks really old. They tried to guess her age. My ever-so-polite brother guessed 42 and one of his friend 53. Turns out she was 26. o.O Poor thing. I bet she went home crying that day.

I'm sad to hear your coffee didn't go well Gabby and Wildy.

I so have a brain damage. Been going through Japanese bands. I want proof they really are 1 male and 2 really that thin. Because I'm a girl and definetly not a fat one and I know I'd look like an Ultrasaur next to them.

Okay. Last thing. http://www.spinfrog.com/blueorb/ I've been thinking about the same question for some time.

There' s something wrong with my sister. She has had all these weird symptoms (losing balance, muscle pain,...) for something like a year and now the doctors are getting pretty creative. So, next week my sister will go to EEG and also have around 25 blodtests taken from her. She hates blodtests. Okay, but to cut a long story short, could some of you borrow some DVDs/VHSs, because my sister would need to stay up until very late in the night for her EEG, and she has seen all of our videos too many times. If anyone of you could bring on Tuesday something for my sister to watch, I'd be very thankful. She likes everything except horror.

So, the holiday began. Although if you ask me, two days do not make a holiday, just a slightly longer weekend, so that people can catch up with their homework and sleeping.

Okay, I've been doing absolutely nothing. Well except for some homework and baking and cleaning. But all my projects are still waiting untouched. Should start writing them, but feel kinda drained.

I'm updating my Windows and some programs. With a modem. Meaning everything sucks. To compare the speed to a retarded snail would be an insult. To the snail I mean.

You are Form 9, Vampire: The Undying.

"And The Vampire was all that remained on
the blood drowned creation. She attempted to
regrow life from the dead. But as she was
about to give the breath of life, she was
consumed in the flame of The Phoenix and the
cycle began again."


Some examples of the Vampire Form are Hades (Greek)
and Isis (Egyptian).
The Vampire is associated with the concept of
death, the number 9, and the element of fire.
Her sign is the eclipsed moon.

As a member of Form 9, you are a very realistic
individual. You may be a little idealistic,
but you are very grounded and down to earth.
You realize that not everything lasts, but you
savor every minute of the good times. While
you may sometimes find yourself lonely, you
have strong ties with people that will never be
broken. Vampires are the best friends to have
because they are sensible.

Oh, and if someone likes a book tip (there is a word in Finnish, kirjavinkkaus, but I really don't know a suitable one in English, so...) try Weis&Hickman and their Blacksword- series.

*checks how the updating is going and screams* 20 minutes, 20 /minutes/!!

But on the good side, one of the fics I'm reading was updated! I like the story (the one set in ancient Rome, GW) and the milieu. And some blood, violence and Duo cussing is fine by me.

And when watching TV yesterday, I saw the new musicvideo from Apocalyptica and the 69 Eyes Betty Blue. It made me so happy. I'm so pathetic sometimes. Edit: Most of the time.

Quotes: Today, three for the price of one. To make some people happy (and some miserable)

Another week of existens behind. And I survived it! (Who said I'm sarcastic?)

Yeah, I was working yesterday also. 6 hours on a Saturday is a bit much, when thinking I have school and another job and housework on the side. In the evening I went to a party. It was my first in maybe a year. I don't like partying too much, because there is no real chance to talk (I don't mean mindless gossiping, but real talk about how you really are/feel). And too many people+ too loud music =not nice. But it was Essi's birthday and I hadn't seen her in several months, so I *had* to go. It wasn't that terrible (the place was beautifully decorated and there were a lot of nice people), infact I rather enjoyed seeing old friends, but three hours watching people drinking and shouting is enough for me.

I've been gardening (is that a verb? Does it mean doing work in the garden?? I'm so tired I hardly see straight so I'm taking zero responsebility for the spelling/grammar/vocabulary) for three hours, so going to bed sounds like a great idea right now. But I still haven't studied Germany (a wordtest is lurcing behind the corner) and I should do a bit more Maths.

Oh, and my depression seems to be back. Just the mere thought of ringing my granny (the kind and nice one, not the hag) to thank her for the money she gave me, almost made me scream. I don't want to see/meet/phone people right now (aside from some friends). Hmmm, I'd consider about getting some professional help, unless 1) "depression is fairly common among young women" 2) the mentalhealthcare-system in Finland sucks
and 3) I don't have an eating disorder and I'm not suicidal (most of the time at least). So, I just hope it passes again and I can go back to my normal manic-depressive self again.

Test week is over and a new term has begun. I fucked up my math test, but I can live with the grade I got.
I'm starting to get used to work again. It's not easy or light, but I suppose I can handle it. As long as I don't get any of my in and out depressions at work. That'd be sooo disasterous.
I actually have done some school related things this weekend. And I also visited my daddy, for the first time in, ummm, two months? And I met for the first time my stepmothers son. My daddy and she have been together for around three years or more. I know I've got a weird family!

I'm doing a project about Aiskhylos, so I went to the library on Friday. But there were no books handling him left. I was angry (I don't live in some teeny weeny village around the White Sea, God this is one of the biggest towns in Finland and the library is BIG) but after arriving home and checking my own bookshelves, I noticed I have at least 5 books telling about Aiskhylos. o.O

If Finland still lived in check-time, I know where I'd order mine: Unicorns 'n stuff

Oh, I was just writing one of my penpals. She lives in Kenya and manages to misspel my name every time. The same goes for all the foreign companies I've ever dealt with. Everytime I get a magazine from abroad, my name is misspelled, and always in the same way. But I've never had trouble with my first name in Finland before, until now in my new job. Every employer has a box, with a nametag. Guess who had her name misspelled. And I don't even have a complicated name!

I've gotten addicted to Prince of Tennis. It's official now, I don't just like it, I really *enjoy* it. I know it doesn't have a real plot or anything, but weird stuff happens daily.

Hmmm my mother just announced we can't touch the computer for a week or so. She is mad about something again. Well it does good for me to concentrate on my tests, but still it's friggin' unfair, 'cause I've done nothing wrong. I need to get a laptop. Maybe father will get me one for my birthday. Yeah right, most likely my mother'll interfere and I'll get something more "useful".

I just understood I'll have English in my next period. Probably should learn to spell and stuff before my lessons begin, because I've been so lazy resently that my English has turned from tolerable to terrible. I can't spell anything anymore. *whinewhinewhine*

I finally watched the Makasiini- concert. Siiri Nordin is so cute! And so were some other singers too (like Ville Valo) but I must admit they are nothing compared to Mana.

My sister left yesterday to England. And naturally she forgot to take an umbrella with her. Weird, this is the first time she's abroad without me. Even weirder is that I kinda miss her but I'm not worried about her being safe.

I really should start to write my projects for school, but really all I've done has been reading. Mostly fanfiction and other non-productive stuff. But it just seems to be so hard to start working for my numbers again. Yeah, I know I'm lazy, no need to rub it in.

My mothers going out again this evening. Not that I'm complaining, because it does a lot of good to her but we really seem to have mixed our roles somewhere along the way. I never go out, because to be honest I really appreciate my privacy and time alone. Too much of socializing and I'm ready to start screaming. On the other hand my mother loves going out with her friends.

That quote is stolen from Mason Cooley, if someone cares to know.

I'm feeling so utterly crappy right now, that I'm having trouble to comprehend it. I'm sick. I have this nasty flu and runny nose and I'm feeling uncomfortably hot (although my toes and fingers are freezing at the same time) and even the seven cups of tea I've drank haven't helped. Maybe I should drink another cup?

Also I was planning on writing some projects for school this weekend, but I don't think I can form coherent enough ideas for that. Same reason stops me from answering Kuni's email.

And to add to that, my modem is whining and bitching and refusing to oppen pages. Life is just so peachy keen, you know? I was planning on paying my sister a visit to abuse her ADSL, but in my current state its wiser to keep inside. Although I'd love to go for a long walk with my dog, but the idea of catching bronchitis is keeping me inside. *swears a bit at her fingers that refuse to type words correct*

But I finally finished sorting my fanfics today. Hurray! Now they all are neatly by series. But I think I'll need to make indexes, because some of the files are around 1000 pages long. *cusses at her hands that just started shaking* I think I should go eat something to see if that would help me feel a bit better, or more alive or something.

He's drunk
He tastes like candy
He's so beautiful
He's so deep, like dirty water
God, he's awful
You're lost, oh, where's your daddy?
It's so awful
Swing low, sweet cherry, yeah it's awful
You're ripe for the picking, it's so awful
Oh just shut up, you're only 16
'Awful' - Hole

Which Life Stage Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla

Sounds like me, or then again maybe not... I stole this test from Amanda.

Warning! Some really inane rambling about Chobits ahead. You're warned!

I’ve fallen for Chobits (by CLAMP). Although it started out as a stupid “boy’s manga” with great trouble like switching on a killer-cute female persocom (human shaped and sized computer) (and where would the switch happen to be so that it would be as daring and stupid as possible?) But now it has morphed into a really deep and dark story about tolerance, acceptance and limitations of both humans and computers. Can computers love and lust and can humans treat computers as peers, not as machinery? What are the definitions for a human? If one can love, hate, lust, be jealous, bend orders and programming, but can’t eat or drink, is one an it or he/she? If your memories are erased, are you also erased at the same time? I find the question rather tricky and I’m not even in the storyline.
I love the beautiful characters, even Chi with her skimpy outfits. I like to spot the standard references to other series by CLAMP, like Piffle Princess and the owl- kinda thing from CLAMP School Detectives. I also love the picture book that tells the story of Chi and Hideki from a slightly different point of view inside the manga. And now in volume 6 the series has made me wait for how could Chi possibly make persocoms able to “dream as well”. And why does Minoru refer to “Icchan” in the end of volume 6? Icchan is from Angelic Layer, not from Chobits, or is he?
All in all, I’m drooling for the last two volumes of this weird mixture of light-heartedness from Sakura and WISH and darkness and bittersweet angstyness from Clover. And how could I not like a series that covers the (sexual) relationships between pupil/teacher, older man/young girl, boy/persocom and persocom/persocom?
