Who-ee

Been one heck of a week, this.


Monday was a lazy day. Which means we didn't do anything.
On Tuesday Mum and I went to see the last Harry Potter film. It was very good. 13 years of waiting is now officially over. Wow. What next?


And on Wednesday I traveled to Helsinki to see X-men: first class. That was also brilliant. Loved the actors, loved the characters. loved everything.
But it was an eventful trip right from the beginning. First, my bike's chain got loose, but luckily that happened close to a little coffee kiosk, so I asked one of the customers to help me - after trying to do it myself for over five minutes. He fixed it in about a minute. -.-
And after a bit I saw an old man lying on the grass by the road. It was a hot, sunny day, so I of course stopped to ask if he was okay. Luckily he was, but he did tell me that I was on the right track, waking him up and asking. That made me feel good.
Okay, the train trip was quite uneventful and the rest of my stay in Helsinki was normal; a few pamphlet throwers, too many people etc. but I had fun.
And on the way back, I woke up a man who almost slept past his stop. I'd heard where he was supposed to get off the train, but he didn't wake when the announcement came.
All in all, I felt happy, helpful and dead tired, when I got home.


Thursday was again a lazy day. I did absolutely nothing. I was still tired and my thighs were killing me, so I couldn't walk properly. I'm finding muscles I didn't know I had. -.-


And yesterday - Friday - we cleaned the house, because we had some guests coming. Mum's friends. I decided to tag along, because the food sounded so delicious and I felt lazy.
They brought a little seven-year-old girl with them, so I did have something to do. She was so sweet, a bit shy. I made her a little pink dragon amigurumi and she loved it.
She was taken home after dinner and I buried myself in my room. Mum, dad and the guys seemed to have fun. And I had fun listening to them.
I went to bed around two - or half past - and they still continued in the back yard.


This morning I woke around ten thirty and mum and dad were still sleeping. XD
Usually I wake up last.
I'm expecting this to be another lazy day. Might go for a swim, though, if it doesn't rain.

Busy Doing Nothing

It's funny how I manage not to have time, when I've really nothing to do...


I never finish the things I'm supposed to... But where does the time go? I mean, really.


Okay, I've been crocheting and drawing a bit and I've watched like a million films and everything, but there was so much more I was supposed to do last week, and I can't remember them anymore. XP


Today I went to the unemployment office and though I waited about an hour, it didn't feel that bad - I had my Pratchett with me, after all. Then I went to the library and lent some more City Watch -books (I love Vimes).
And after that, I went to buy new gumboots. And finally got around to buy some cotton filling for my amigurumi and found the safety eyes, too. ^_^


Here are the thingies I've made recently: 

Medama Oyaji for a friend, a little blue monkey for my cousin and a pygmy puff and a bedbug for myself.

A blue bunny for my sister, Cthulhu for her fiancé and two mascot babies.

Midsummer's

Yeah, I'm really, really unreliable blogger. -.-


DesuCon came and went... It was a blast.


Anyway, been very busy and I've still many things to do. This weekend, though, I've done absolutely nothing.


I've had friends over - five of them - and we've had too much fun, watching films, eating good food, and talking. And we even went to see the midsummer bonfire over at the harbour, although it'd been a rainy day, but luckily it didn't rain all the while we were out.


Now we're talking about BL (<3) and I've been crocheting amigurumis all day. ^_^

Summer vacation.

For a week, anyway.

Had my last entrance exam this Monday. I'm so glad it's over for now. Next Monday I'll start work at the library, but that will only be fun.

So, what's happened since I came home from Cambridge?

Not very much to tell the truth... School's over and I know I'll miss the girls terribly. I'll miss the teacher's too!

My  brain feels like a wring-dried towel or a sponge... So, at the moment, I'm not very good at thinking. :P

Today I was going to lie in our back yard to get some sun, but it turns out a squirrel family has taken over the pavilion and I really don't want to get bitten by one of them. I mean, they're cute and all, but could they please move somewhere else! We can't even use the grill, 'cause the mother squirrel is stupid!

>.<

Idiot animal! If tomorrow is this warm and beautiful, I'll hit the beach. At least there I don't have to worry about small mammals chewing my toes off...

But I won't be going for a swim, because I've got my period right now... And it's really the most painful thing ever. They've never hurt this much before. First it was my back, I couldn't even walk properly and now it's my stomach and I think I should go lie down a bit. -.-

All packed and ready to go...

... The problem is that I don't want to go!

Tonight I will be out late, having fun with my mates all over Cambridge... And tomorrow morning, at seven thirty, a taxi will come and pick me up from this host family.

I'll write a longer entry Saturday evening when I'm home. Right now I don't really feel like writing, I'm too sad. T.T

Day 11 - leaving blues

Today we got our certificates from school. But I still can't get my head around the fact that I'm going to leave... I don't want to leave!

After school we had a walk to Grantchester, on the countryside. We walked through a park - a very lush park - and on the paddies with some cows. They were so cute!

We had tea at a pavilion there - there was a plaque near the door that Virginia Woolf (among others) had been one of their customers.

Need to find a recipe to scones. These were delicious!

Good tea in good company! <3

I'll seriously miss the nature here - and those roses! They're huge and everywhere! I want!

Day 10 - some me time

The Grafton Centre - a cheaper shopping centre.

A view from a park on the way back to the centre of the city.

Not much to tell about today...

Had debates at school... it was surprisingly fun, especially as me and Richard agreed on most points. XD

Which reminds me, I have to do my homework.

After school we caught a bus to the Grafton Centre and to Primark. I bought myself sweat pants and a matching top, for only eight pounds. Then I walked back to the centre and went browsing to the market place; bought some nice bracelets for myself and then went to Starbucks.

There I sat, reading Dorian Gray and sipping my coffee, until I had to come back home for dinner. Nice day!

And I already packed, so I could be sure that my suitcase isn't over-weight and it isn't. Only 16 kg and we're allowed something like 20 kg. \o/

Off to take a shower now and to watch a film after that.
