Today I came home from Vaasa, which is a city in Finland. It's a four hour trip with train so it's pretty far away. I had a great time there and I almost miss it already. I got used to having a lot of people around me that now I just feel all lonely.
On the train we all had computers and I sat playing Chain Rxn on Facebook. If you don't know that game do check it out. It's fun. I can't stop playing it. I did play it a lot in Vaasa for some odd reason. My friend Keny also played a lot. We're pretty much having a competition on who has the highscore. At the moment he's in the lead. I'm trying and trying to beat him but it's not easy.
I was really allergic the whole trip which was annoying. Hate it so much. It was a bit hard to breathe at one point. So wohoo.
Vaasa was a pretty city and I could almost see myself living there. They talk a lot of swedish there and it's lovely.
My grandfather died a few days ago, as I wrote in my personal blog. Thank you again, Emma for your sympathy and your very warming virtual hugs. Mum was away to discuss plans for the funeral this morning. I will sing during the ceremony, just like I did when my grandmother (on my father's side) died. It's my way of showing love, and gratitude that they were part of my life.
I'm so sorry to hear that you're ill Emma, and I do hope you get better real soon.
Now it will seem very weird to go on talking about other things, but I hope you'll forgive me for doing so and not think I'm callous. I am grieving for my grandfather and I am not trying to belittle his death by talking about other things.
I have now re-watched Gone with the wind, and it wasn't as bad as I remembered it at all. I recommend you to both read and see it, when you have the time. Though the movie should be enjoyed with company, it could get a little boring to watch it by yourself I think.
To finish I will offer you the first part of Dr. Horrible's sing-along blog, the next part will naturally appear in my next post. You can also download this piece of awesomeness on itunes. I'm personally addicted to this thing and can't stop singing the songs. Much like I have become a HUGE fan of the Disney movie Tarzan, another movie I would like to urge all of humanity to see.
Hope that you don't hate me for not writing in this blog in...well ages. I'm very sorry and I will try to get better at updating. Been pretty busy and now I am feeling a bit ill. It hurts to swallow and my whole body pretty much aches. So woho for that.
And yes I am just giving you bad excuses for not writing. Not good.
Oh, I'm so sorry about you grandfather, Hanna! It must be very difficult to not be able to do anything and just wait.
Gone with the Wind. I have heard so much about that one but neither seen in or read it. I probably should. Just to have read it and yeah...'cause people say that it's good. But right now I have a lot of books to read so maybe I'll read them first and then think of new books to read. Right?
I had a meeting at my school today. I study from home so I don't go to school at all, or well sometimes, but not often. The meeting went well and now I feel better and that I can relax a bit. That is really good. I really want to keep my ability to sleep.
I can see you listening to that Emma. Not really my music though, but they were skilled.
Right now my life is filled with awesome things and very, very sad things all at once.
My grandfather is terribly ill, and he's probably dying. Nothing much to write about that really, it's just a long, terrible wait. It feels really strange to write about it here, because I feel like I sound so cold. Sometimes the written word can be so clumsy. But if I just kept prattling on about the good things that's happening without saying anything about this, that would feel wrong too.
The awesome thing is that I've been accepted to the school I wanted to go in. It means I'll be moving out of home, and in with my girlfriend. It also means that I'll finally be getting serious with music for real, which feels kind of cool.
The book in my constant presence these days is Gone with the wind, which I grabbed from the library because I remember thinking that the movie was awful and I wanted to check if the book was just as bad. It turns out that it is a rather interesting read, and that made me decide to re-watch the movie and see if I'd like it better this time around. Somehow I doubt that, but you never know.
Sorry that I haven't made a post in a while. There's a lot going on in my life right now and...yeah. Like schoolstuff that I don't really understand at all, so that takes a bit of time to do. And then a lot of other stuff.
But now I am back here.
Listening to ALL CAPS right now and I just love it. A friend of mine said that it's summermusic and I have to agree with him. It's upbeat and happy and that's what music has to be in the summer. I can totally see myself sitting on the grass and listening to "Mrs Nerimon". Can't you? I want the cd but I have no money so I can't really order it yet.
This will be a mega-short little update because I am uninspired and very nervous because in a couple of days I'll be off to apply for a school I want to attend.
Anyway, I want to make movies some day, and I downloaded this program called Celtx that formats everything in the right way when you write a script. All the distances and shit. I haven't tested it much yet, but it seems to be easy to use and pretty awesome.
Just wanted to share some of that happiness with you all.
