Moving tomorrow

Oh my god x 10!


I can't believe I'm really, seriously going to move out tomorrow. On Tuesday I had no idea I'd be having a place of my own so soon.
Okay, so the rent's ridiculous, but I'll survive and the view is worth it, towards the river. I'll probably be living there at least a year, hopefully.
School's going to start next Thursday, so I'm a bit nervous about that too, but studying is my second nature, so it's okay. Going to meet lots of new people... And you all know how good I am at making friends. Yikes!


The funny thing is, that although I'm moving tomorrow, I'll only get my furniture there on the 10th... I'll be sleeping on a mattress and having my things in the boxes. And I'm not even sure if I'll have electricity there 'til next week. -.-
And Internet? Don't even mention it! I've no idea what would be a good option for me - cheap enough and fast enough. I'll manage with the public net the library and university have. And maybe there's a neighbouring wireless I could leech off of before I get my own. XP


So I won't be very active online for a while, I think.

University calls!

I'm so happy, I can't stay still!

I just got a letter from University of Eastern Finland that I got in. From a queue, no less. - I had already given up, really, so I was really surprised.
I'll study English language and culture. <3

The only thing that worries me a bit is that I'll have to find a place to live in Joensuu in three weeks time, as school starts on the 1st of September. Yikes!
Luckily the tutors had written in their letter that if I don't succeed in finding a place, I can bunk in with them for a while.

So, yeah... I'm hyped up about my changing life.

Bloody computer games and being adult!

It's really, really difficult to try to mix both...
I'm so busy arranging my new life as an unemployed adult, and for some reason it really uses my energy. *ugh*
I've been running around, looking at apartments, to the unemployment office and looking for a job - or something else to do - and trying to make ends meet...


I've also knitted a lot; my bolero jacket is about halfway done and I just today bought new yarn for a large scarf thingie.


I'm in Star Wars fandom mode now, have been for the last two weeks, actually and it's really fun. I can't wait to get to start the RPG we've got planned. *hype*
I also played SW: KotOR again. It's been a good while, and I almost already got off the bloody Taris. I've been stuck there for ages! And now I got stuck to the bloody mini shooter game! ARGH!
I'll shut up now, 'cause no one's interested anyway. XP


So, nothing's happened, really. And I'm getting a bit bored. XD
