You say I'm selfish, I agree with you on that

I need to apologise my absence. It's just that there haven't been much stuff to write about and my room is not in the right condition to make a room post (does anyone even want this anyway?) or anything and I've had other things to do or I've just been to tired to make a post. Now anyway I finally got some pics from Laura and I decided to actually do something!
So really nothing much have happened. Monday 26th was the briefing and it was nice seeing everyone but now it'll be some time before we'll see each other if we don't organise something our selves. After that I've mostly been hanging around with my friends and practising our performance for the class with Laura.
Taken by Riia
As a part of a music class everyone has to do this kind of a performance that we call TYS. It's usually singing and playing various instruments but I've heard someone has danced in their TYS. We don't possess such a ability (yet) but we sing quite a lot together and we have many songs we wanted to do duet versions of. So our songs were "Rumour has it/Someone like you" both songs are by Adele but the Mash-up is from Glee. We had the backgroud coming from the computer but it somehow failed at the beginning and things just fucked up but we made it through the song without either one starting to hypervantilate or cry and so good for us! Next we had two songs with me playing guitar. First was Lady Gaga's "Born this way" and then "I feel pretty/Unpretty" which is also a mash-up from Glee and the songs are from Westside story and I think "Unpretty" is by TLC but I'm still not sure. Then we had still one more song with background from the computer: "Smooth Criminal". Anyway this wasn't the original Jackson style but the background was played by a cello and a violin. So that's pretty cool. I somehow managed to fuck up the end of this also but I think we got A or A+ anyway so that's cool!
Again by Riia. We're wearing matching outfts!
Sorry for the quality of these two pictures. Our music class isn't really the best place for taking pictures.
Apart from that all I've been doing is pretty much hanging around with the Fishclub. We didn't even have any sleepovers but we were buying clothes for Santtu last Saturday. We've been talking a lot about clothes with him lately and came to the realisation that we have pretty much the same taste. Or kind of. Of course I like to wear also women clothes in summer (mostly in summer) but it's like Santtu is the main character and I'm he's gay best friend. Or something like that. Anyway I got to style him, and it was nice.
Because we're artists!
I found Santtu some very nice jeans but they were little too long so I promosed to shorten them and his mum even paid me five euros for doing this! It wasn't a big deal but it's been forever since I've last sewed and it was kind of nostalgic.


Here is something nice I did in my arts class. We usually don't do anything cool and I'm kind of bored there but this was nice. It kind of pervaded and at first I was really pissed off but now it doesn't bother me anymore. You can still see it's Sherlock Holmes, right? We're painting huge doors now at the arts class and I'm trying to make the 221B Baker Street's door but I really just suck at pinting so we'll see how that's going to turn out.
So that's about it. Last Monday I was watching my brother's "End of the World" themed music project but I really don't know what to say about that, even if it was really cool! I've had terribly much exams at school for past two weeks but now it's Eastern holiday and I get to sleep long and see everyone I haven't seen in a while, like Hilbo. But now it's too much o'clock and I could really use some extra hours of sleep so let's just leave this here for now. Oh, now that I remember I've also bought three shirts for my self and I'll try and remember to show them in the next post as well as I'll let you know about my desucon plans. So there's something to look forward to! Have a picture of my face cause Mello cut my hair for the Matt cosplay and here is me with a forelock and a hipster scarf!

This is my idea of fun playing video games

Life without theater is nothing. Or that's how I feel, I have no idea what have I been doing for the last week. Monday and Tuesday were the last performances before this god damn two months long hiatus! I just miss it okay? Luckily tomorrow is some kind of briefing so at least I get to see my friends but still. It's not the same.
The gift my friends gave me after the show
So that's it for Kohina and Lokki for a while. On Wednesday we went to see a show called Kierre with our class. It was more like "modern theater" and yes it was cool but not the one I would pay for to see twice or anything. On Thursday I went out for a coffee with Santtu and then we did kind of a window shopping in One Way and Dressmann which was nice. Anyway, on Friday something actually happened!
That's right, The Hunger Games!
This is something I've been waiting for so long! I still haven't finished the last book but I've read the first two in English (which makes it so hard to read the Finnish translations.) and now that I don't have to read anything for school, I'm going to put all my focus on Mockingjay.
Now, if you haven't seen the movie The Hunger Games or read the book don't read this next part!
So this is my opinion about the movie. If we don't compare it to the book, it was a good movie. Well actually pretty good! Too much of Hollywood for me and I'm still pissed that it's R-12 or something like that. But anyway it was good, the actors were amazing! And I liked the camera work. But now if we compare it to the book there were some things that really bothered me. First of all why didn't Katniss' ear explode? I mean when she exploded the Career's food there was the voice which was cool but nothing happened to her ear! It's just that if you think about the second book, Katniss says she can hear better with that ear so what are you going to do now? Second, that freaking sleep syrup! I don't know if I need to say anything else about that. Then we have Cato's armor. The one he got when 12 got the medicine. There was no mention about it no anything. It just pissed me off! And the mutations, no comment that they were the already dead tributes, that was the most terrifying thing, you can't just ignore that! And I'll finish this whining with the fact that I did not like the ending. It sucked! I think it went too fast and they seemed too normal. Like everything was fine and they weren't traumatized or anything! And it went far too fast AND it left the image as if Katniss loved Peeta like that cause no! It's not that simple and gosh! Anyway. I'm sorry about this all whining cause in the end I liked it pretty much but it's juts some things that pissed me off.

Elevator with Karo, Onni, Aino, Diana and the other Aino should be there also.
So I didn't go to school that day but met with some friends from my Prometheus-camp. We ended up going to Coffee House in WTC and Onni bought me Cafe Mocha. After that we hanged out somewhere in the center od Helsinki and after that Onni came to my place. We ened up playing Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword with my brother Antrei which was also pretty nice. These two guys really work together! On Saturday the Fishclub came here and we watched a bunch of random movies. The Fishclub means Santtu, Laura and Otto and this time we watched some "Monthy Phyton", "Me and You and Everyone we know", "Yellow Submarine" and "Rocky Horror Picture Show". After they left my grandmother and my aunt came here and we ate and now I'm lying in my bed typing this.

And I'm listening to deadmau5. I really don't know where I got the idea first but now I feel like partying. Or just hanging out with some friends and playing video games. I really miss playing L.A. Noire and some Heavy Rain would be cool also. Yes, Mello, Michaela and Hilbo I'm talking to you!
Teenage Emo Ninja Turtles!
Also my hair sucks! Like really! It has grown out of it's shape and the colour has faded almost completly off. I would go to Hilbo and let her cut it, I would be okay with anything except this but I promised Mello to cosplay Matt in Desucon and I need to use my own hair so I may have to suffer with this until then. Well, she said she'd do something about it, thank god! So yeah, Desucon is coming and I still don't have my ticket but I do have costume for the last day and shared bed with Mello from a hotel room! I'm still not completly sure about my cosplays either than Matt but I was thinking of some casual!Roxas cause I'm proud of my wig but too lazy to make an official outfit. But we'll see about that. Here's still picture of both of these and if you'd like to see more of my cosplaysyou can find them from my cosplay related deviant art account which is SCREAMERno1


And now just one more thing. My friend Laura has been working on something and it's now almost finished. Actually I think it is finished but she said it's still in prgress.. Anyway if you please could check out her blog? I know it's not blogspot but still. Can you do this, for me?
Okay, I think that's all for today. Now, I'll go grab something to eat and then maybe I'll even sleep at some point. Bye everyone!

Trying to rest my head on the floor, half stoned thinking damn this shit gets old

Hello again, everyone! It's been a while, I know and I'm sorry. So it's the last day of my Winter break and I've actually been doing something which itself is a small miracle. So first two days I spent in Tikkurila working on that big play I told you about but I haven't taken any pictures cause I really don't have any freetime there and I don't want to spoil anything for those who are coming to see it (: By the way, if anyone's still interested in seeing it the dates are 13.3. 16.3. 19.3. and 20.3. just let me know if you'd like to bee there (: Back to my holiday; Monday I saw Laura, Otto and Santtu and once again we went to coffee. I don't know what is it but something's wrong with Robert's Coffee's these days! Their Robert's Mocha tastes like crap no matter how they do it! So if you still wan't to get good Robert's Mocha I highly recommend Central Railway Station's Robert's Coffee cause it's the only place I know where thay still succes to make it good. No, I'm going to apologize and stop whining about that, pardon me. Anyway, I have no idea what I did on Tuesday so if someone knows I'd be happy to know! Anyway, Wednsday we finally left Finland to a cruise to Sweden! It was awesome! I mean even if we lost all of our money to gambles and Santtu and Tumppi couldn't keep their hand off from their phones to text their girlfiends, everything was just awesome! So here's pretty much everything you need to know in pictures!
My company + our cabin. Looking good boys!
Quality sucks but this is the best pic I got from the Music museum.
Crappy but cheap 7-Eleven salad, don't try it's really bad!
More of my company, eating.
Back to the ship and the stuff I bought
FOOD!
MOAR FOOD!

 Now I want to apologize again but I want to talk to you about coffee! As I already mentioned it's very hard to find good Robert's Mocha nowadays. At first I thought it was because they did it wrong but no, it wasn't. You see the "right way" to do it (this is just me, no hard feelings, plz) is to first add the chocolate and then the coffee, milk and cream. Well some people did it like adding the chocolate after the coffee and milk and I was like "NOO YOU CAN'T DO THAT!" but now I know that that's not the deal. What is it then? I don't know. Anyway, ehy this picture is staring at you right there is because we went to Wayne's Coffee and I don't know how they normally do their Cafe Mocha's but this was something new for me. Insted of using the chocolate sauce they used cocoa powder. I don't think you get me but it was interesting, like really! And it was better than Robert's Mocha usually! I don't know what is it but should I work in a cafe? Maybe when I can.
Anyway, that was the cruise and as I got back to Finland I went to see confusing but awesome movie with Hilbo.
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. I absolutely loved it. As I said it was very confusing but also very very brilliant and beautiful and the actors. How is it even possible to have so many good actors in one place? I mean Gary Oldman, Benedict Cumberbatch, Colin Firth, Mark Strong, Toby Jones, John Hurt, Ciarán Hinds, Tom Hardy, David Denick... Was it all? Was that it? I don't know but still! Watch it, it's amazing!
Yesterday I finally cleaned my room and left to Michaela to a little party. The same people as always and a little alcohol which means fun. Lots of it! We didn't even do anything special. No hair dying or L-word or even L.A. Noire this time. We did watch some Supernatural but I was mostly on computer cause it was season 4 and I had no idea what was happening. I did have my camera with me but the only picture I took was this.
So that's pretty much what happened. This morning we watched Thor but no one really paid attention because of pancakes and we didn't get to finish it cause Mello, Hilbo and I left home. So that's about it. Tomorrow I'll return to school and start thinking about yhteishaku and every other things I should be worried about. But before I leave to talk to strangers and maybe even watch some Neverland I'll give you a cute picture of Dianna Agron and two songs that have been palying on repeat in my head. Good night and be good!



PS. I'd like to point out that I added a "Read" button to "Reactions" just to keep in track if people actually read my babblings (: So if you read the post (NB! Read it, not just check the photos or so) just click it, not too much effort!

Life goin' nowhere.

Who says cleaning WC can't be fun?

I know that I promised to show you my room and I know I promosed to clean it. I also know that it's been over a week since I last posted anything and I know I should be sleeping at the moment. But anyway as a compromise I thought I could tell you about my another lovely weekend with my three dearest friends Mello, Michaela and Hilbo. Because my weeks are really boring and basically I do nothing interesting. Anyway, on Saturday we went to Kiasma with Mello to see the new exhibition Thank You For The Music and to have a little photoshoot. The exhibition was weird, as Kiasma is, but I wasn't really in the mood for it so we kind of wormed through it and then took some pictures. I took a few pictures of the exhibition also.



This is the most serious picture of me ever.

Dude and Fancy. How did we end up BFs?
After our very serious photoshooting and shopping we headed to my place in Vantaa and settled down to wait Hilbo and Michaela. Hilbo is the only one who studies in upper secondary school at the moment (I propably will next year) and she had exam week which means she needed to study so she came late as always. Also, Michaela who is our destined PS3 and game person in charge was a bit sick and also had work. She said at some point that she wouldn't come 'cause she didn't want the rest of us the get sick but we forced her to come. I don't think I can tell you everything that happened but basically food, alias, games, tumblr, discussion and stuff like that. But maybe I'll just let these crappy pictures explain.



Don't blame her. It was cold.
So basically that's everything that's worth telling about my past week. I have some exams coming this and the up coming week and I should read some but I really don't think that's going to happen. My maths book and notes are staring at me on my left but I haven't even touched them. Lucky, I'm good at it.
Something that might have happened is that I've started to draw more again 'cause I finally bought a sketch book and new pencils. I still don't have anything great and big done but I'm working on my first try of Jim Moriarty and then I have drew some OCs from my stories. And yes, I've been working on some stories. Some of them are just inside my head for now and some of them I have already written something. Let me know if you would like me to tell you about my stories or if you want to see some drawings 'cause I want to post stuff that people want to see or read as you must understand.
Anyway, my schoolbooks are judging me from afar and I could use some sleep so I'll just leave this nice man here who you defenetly should listen to.

PS. Who loved this weeks Glee episode? Michael!

I said, "I love you... good-bye"

So the Holidays are over and school will continue tomorrow. This means I'll be busier and more tired and won't post everyday. Well that was never my intention anyway but this all is just to get this started. My life won't be enough interesting anyway so that I could write about it everyday. But anyway. My holiday has been pretty nice at it felt longer than it actually was. Okay so here's some pictures of my holiday, what I've done and what has happened... Or something like that.
some of my most precious xmas presents

my brother made me a t-shirt. it says "stick with me"

yes, i've been on computer way too much

in a café with my dear friend Mello

at Michaela's, Hilbo bleaching Mello's hair

spent my new year's with Michaela, Mello and Hilbo

bought three new shirts, the purple one is Hilbo's

i've been drinking coffee.. like a lot
fell in love with nevershoutnever once again

more coffee, photographing and movies


Of course this is not all but I think there's no need to go find pictures of chinese food and pizza just because I've ate them and didn't take my camera with me back then. All of these pictures are not mine, once again, only those which have my watermark, 4123. The others are from deviantart, we♥it or tumblr. And I still want to say something about the pictures. In the first one; Tron and Transformers aren't my xmas presents. I borrowed these and five other movies from my friend Santtu some time ago and still haven't watched all of them. Anyway now I got to watch these two (and I liked them) and I'll return them hopefully tomorrow. So that's all about it.
Okay so as you can see, I've been watching movies lately. I've also been to movies which I hadn't done in a while. Now how ever I got to watch "New Year's Eve" with my friend Kiti. It was nice to watch but not such a spectacular even though Lea Michele starred and sang in it. I also got to watch Shrelock Holmes: A Game of Shadows. Me and Hilbo are such RDJ Sherloch fangirls and we're considering on cosplaying Sherlock and Watson so of course I had to go see that. We still don't know when are we going to cosplay this wonderful bromance but next time we'll see we'll decide who is playing who. I'm shorter than Hilbo so that's why my first thought was that I'll be Sherlock and she's Watson but she just reminds Sherlock so much that we still need to think about that. But I'll come back to it soon when we've talked more about this.

from we♥it
So today I went to movies with my class mates Santtu, Laura and Otto to watch 50/50. All I knew about it was that it was about a man who had a cancer and Joseph Gordon-Levitt was playing this man. It was enough. Gordon-Levitt is such a good actor and I have to say that cancer is kind of iteresting and terrifying at the same time. And terrifying it was! I mean it was really great movie and I do want to see it again but it was also touching and sad at least for me. Can't deny, cried a little at some point.
from we♥it
At the theater we ran in to my two old friends. Or actually Veera and Rauna were sitting right in front of us. It was nice chatting with them cause I hadn't seen either of them for like years. Reminded me that I have lots of old friends I should just see sometime. Maybe have some coffee with~

Anyway. My school starts at 8:00 AM tomorrow so I'd better go to sleep soon and I really can't think of anything to write about so I'll just leave this here and go to bed as if. Good night, everyone!
