mmm... mice
2003-05-22 14:14:01
My cat hunted it's first mouse few days ago. I just forgot to mention. Sorry Värtti my mistake. It was a tiny mouse. I don't know what happened to it. Probably my cat ate it. She's so cute. aww...
That was it. Now you can all go and do something more constructive than reading my journal since I need to let out some fumes. ^_^ Shuu! Jepulis puput housussa. What was that neat word... I forgot. Damn. Oh and there'll probably be some swearing also so you have been warned (you bored person reading this). So where too start. Hmm... I just sent in my application for University. Online of course since that's possible. I love the internet. I applied to the humanistic institute or whatever it's called. Institute for Asian and African Studies and within that: Study of Japanese language and culture.
The deadline for applications is tomorrow so I was actually more early than last time. You'll know, if you've read my journal long enough. Manjana (sp?) is my life philosophy in some areas. The entrance exams are in three weeks. I have to study two books. One is The Basics of Linguistics. 186 pages of boringness. The other book is Levi-Strauss's book to which I don't know the english translation. I'm somewhat familiar with Levi-Strauss all though I probably haven't read this exact book (I don't have it yet but I will in few days).
With working full time I don't have that much time to study. I'm stressed out since I would actually want to get in here. Not because I have to (long story) but because I'm truly interested. It's not helping that I'm depressed. This is a bad time of year for me. Meh. I don't even have the strength to rant. Sucks... I have no idea how hard it is to get in there. It's not as hard as many of the other places that I've been interested in (astronomy, cultural anthropology and so on).
*siiiigh* What a boring rant.
My priorities:
1. Get accepted to University (or somewhere else)
2. Arctic Tribe (I don't want to miss out on anything)
3. Life (all that crab)
...
Now playing: Love Hina OST - Dreams Come True
Now wearing: clothes but I'm going to take a shower next so...
Mood: stressed out and will be more so in the future
I'm truly sorry for the poor person who read through all of this. I broke my own rule. I made three journal entries today. Pathetic... And to life: "Up yours!" What the hell does that mean? I haven't got a clue. And I don't have glue so stop asking. *rolls eyes* That was a poor inside joke between well... me. I'll stop now. I can see where this is going and thrust me you don't want to go there. Swell. Now I have a head ache because of so much negative thinking.

Matrix II
2003-05-22 03:47:57
I went to see The Matrix-Reloaded yesterday. Good entertainment, if you like sci-fi and martial arts… and Agent Smith. I got lucky because Agent Smith was my favourite character in the first movie (Neo and Trinity are just lame compared to him) and now in this second one there were so many of him. Smith: “Me, Me, Me”
Smith: “Me too”
…lol
Also the first fight between Neo and agents:
(Agent stops Neo’s fist)
Neo: “updates”
I also liked Neo’s coat/skirt very much. It was quite refreshing after all of that leather. And was it just me or did that cave scene with all those dancing people remind anyone else of The Lord Of The Rings movie(s)?
Conclusion: not nearly as good as the first part but good entertainment none the less.

Studio news (I always just have studio news and no video news): our forum went down. Venomi had to reinstall Linux because the http script (or something like that) was messed up. He made a backup of our forum but they were the wrong files. So we had to start all over from scratch. L My post count was already 14 (that’s quite lot for me) but I’ll catch up. Now he makes a backup every day to his other compy (Windows).
We’re having our first official studio meeting on Saturday. I can’t wait. ^_^ We’re just going to hang out in Helsinki, check out shops that sell anime and get to know each other. It will be quite interesting to meet people that you’ve only talked online with. Hopefully most of our studio can come. Some live far away and this was informed only a couple of days ago.
I just realized that I might be the first otaku girl that these guys meet in person. I had never though about it in that way.
I updated my profile again: new picture, new forum, new contact (IRC since I’m usually there) and some new info (studio info).

Need sleep...
2003-05-20 07:13:45
I've slept too little in the past two nights. Juts a word of warning: IRC is highly addictive. The results were visible today at work. The only thing that I've been able to think about all day is getting home, going to bed and sleeping until morning.
My inner clock is way ahead of the "official" time. I would have left from work an hour too early, if this one person hadn't ordered something from the archive. I was all like "we're closing in ten minutes" to which he said: "at 02:20?" (normal closing time is 03:30). Talk about embarrasing but it would have been even more embarrasing to come to work tomorrow and people would ask why I didn't answer the phone on the after noon. -_-
My brain isn't functioning. :/
Still fifteen minutes to go before I'm off. After that I'll have to go to two libraries to get some books. Then I'm going home and getting some blissful sleep.

List of things that I want to do before I do my first video:
2003-05-19 07:03:33
This is actually from my journal way back on the 10th of April. The funny thing is that I’ve accomplished most of these things…
- write all of my ideas down on my computer (accomplished)
- read Ermac's and AD's Guide (working on)
- rip my X-DVD just to gain experience (working on)
- order a DVD of the anime that I'm planning to do my first video of (accomplished)
- learn how to use my Vegas Video and other programs (working on)
- make myself a decent profile with the advice that I got from Kevin (accomplished)
- make an avatar that I've been planning for almost two months now (accomplished)
- make a picture for my profile (accomplished)
- fix my web page (accomplished)
- have a decent intro for my video (working on)
- be a part of a studio (accomplished)
- have a home page for our studio (working on)
- have my personal life in order (it’s still a mess >_<)
If you watch that list, it’s huge. It was actually a huge rant back them. I just edited all the ranting off for your reading pleasure. I remember that at the time I was so sure that I’d never be able to do all those things. It’s all just worked out almost on it’s own and in small pits. That is the secret of not being stressed out. You have to concentrate only on a small project at a time. I’m also telling this to myself because I’m so stressed right now.
