"Darling. I don't know how to tell you this, but there's a Chinese family in our bathroom. "
Finally. At last. Today. I saw 500 Days Of Summer. And it was amaaaaaazing!
The characters in this movie were just like real people. There wasn't any cliché stereotypes like in most movies that include falling in love. Like the Proposal: heartless, bossy woman and a underdog guy. And the woman does exactly what you can expect a bossy-heartless woman to do and so does the underdog guy. UNTIL, the turning point where they fall in love! This same 'love at first turning point' -thing happens in millions of movies! I'm so sick of that! BUT, this one: 500 Days Of Summer was something different. Something awesome! The persons were not as black and white as the persons in those 'turning point love'-movies. This was just so phenomenal.
Here's some fun stuff from the movie:
"Just because she's likes the same bizarro crap you do doesn't mean she's your soul mate" -Tom's 12-year-old sister Rachel
"Just some guy she met at the gym with Brad Pitt's face and Jesus' abs" - Tom's 12-year-old sister Rachel
Tom: What happens when you fall in love?
Summer: You believe in that?
Tom: It's love. It's not Santa Claus..
I need to get this movie on DVD so I can watch it again!
But damn how it made me lose my faith in love.And realize that it's SO NOT helping anyone to believe in love when you are in love! I have no idea when it's okay to believe there's such a thing called love. Love is always said to be a wonderful thing, but what's so wonderful if the other doesn't love you back? So when you think you are in love, you are not. You are not in love when you KNOW you are in love, either! You are in love, when you are loved back! Love is such a cliché. No one really knows what it is. But a lot of people know what it is not!

Don't worry, you are still breathing. I think.
Sometimes I think I really overreact. And sometimes I'm not patient enough. Plus, I lie sometimes.--- But luckily not too often. Actually, I've noticed that I have serious difficulties to lie! And sometimes I'm maybe too patient! Or do not react at all!
Today I overreacted right after not reacting at all. Here's what happened:
My friend Emma had a little accident today. She got all excited about going outside for a little run..So she ran out of the backdoor, simultaneously hitting her leg on the door frame. Outside she trembled and fell down. Tried to stand, but fell down again. And as she tried to stand and walk, she twisted and twinged her leg.. She just couldn't stand without me supporting her. So I had to drag/carry her inside again. And let just say that she isn't the lightest thing on the Earth.. Inside she tried to walk but continued to fall down and twist her legs and toes even more. She also walked into the walls and furniture. So, I had to make her lay down on the floor like an hour! And keep her there.. I was pretty calm for the first 10seconds. "Stroke?"," Broken leg? ", "Epilepsy?" those are just a few examples of the thoughts I had going through my head..
And soon I was just in plain panic! Seriously though, what can you do to help someone who can't speak and is heavy as a whale? I really thought I need to call 911!
I'm still a little shocked, but she is alright! Drooling, begging and eating food the kids dropped on the floor.

You Know How I Do
Last night @ Lestat's was.. well, how should I describe it. I don't know, so I guess I had better to just tell something about it.
Maria picked me up and then we headed to pick up Selma as well. I had _awesome_ instructions how to find the place, so I was 100% confident that we would get there in time. The driver disagreed with my instructions and claimed they were inaccurate. But turned out that I WAS RIGHT! Or well, Patrick was. Eventually we found the place and after driving around for a while we found a place to park out car too! So, we found it! The whole place was übercrowded so we didn't get any seats close to the comedians. So we went to buy drinks from the cafe. Luckily I'm blonde so I should be automatically forgiven for my stupidity. It's not like _I_ think it was stupid what happened but some of the persons with me surely thought!I saw the look on their eyes! I just asked to get something that's good, has chocolate in it, and not too much coffee. I had about 3 options after that..(I think 9 if sizes of the cup are included..or 6, maybe there's only small and large cup..) Anyway, I got a hot chocolate. And it sure as hell was hot! We took a table in the middle of the room and just drank our drinks and chatted. I reeeeeally liked the atmosphere of the place. It was, was it is. It wasn't trying to be something fancy or club-like or something what it wasn't. It was so comfortable. Too bad I don't have a car to drive there more often.. I really need ehm.. bicycle..no..a motorcycle..no.. a horse..no.. maybe wings!
I think I won't post any pics here.. Maybe to facebook. In some point.
Today I tried to cook. I was going to bake something, but I should have had yeast. But I(we) had none.. or then I just dont know where it is or was. So I just cooked. Or tried to.Only one of the 3 dishes was a success. The pasta turned out good.. but ehm.. uhm.. Let me just post a photo so you can see it.

Yes, it is pink. And no, no one ate it.

There have to be aliens! How do you explain 99c stores?
The title is once again irrelevant..but inane, it's not! It's from yesterday's episode of SpongeBob Squarepants! That's what SpongeBob said to Patrick.
Yesterday was a good day.. Played baseball, read books, cooked.. to mention something.
I used the ricecooker for the first time in my life! And I didn't even broke it! Or burn the rice or myself!Okay once it was close:I opened the ricecooker to check was it working.. It was. Anyway.I'm fine! No pain no rice or something..

Looks dangerous, doesnt it?
In the evening I watched Sex and The City and How I Met Your Mother. And finished my Ben&Jerry's chocolate fudge brownie-ice cream.
Today went to the library.. Got 6 books(none of them was for myself) and a DVD:Baby Mama. Starring Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. I also visited here:

I spent 42bucks on sending a medium sized 'Flat rate box' to F-land. Seriously..42bucks. GOD! It was like the tiniest medium sized box I've ever seen..(almost)..BUT: Yippee, I get one thing off my 'to do'-list<3 Great!
I'm going to Lestat's tonight. Hope it will turn out to be worth it.. I'll tell how was it when I get back.. If I get back. I almost had to cancel the whole outing because of a .. mm.. well.. malfunction-ish thingie. It was pretty painful..luckily there was only couple of pairs of eyes to witness it! Okay, whatta hell, let's just splut it out: a pilot's helmet got kinda stuck on my head. Why I was wearing it? Well, can you really say no to a 2-year-old princess? (Okay you can..I can too, but this time I couldn't) Why I didn't leave it there.. in my head? Well, the owner of the helmet wanted it. So yeah.. Thats it..
Now I go downstairs to wait my Maria-cab!
HYVÄSTI!

the Bird and the Worm
The weekend is almost over.
On Saturday I saw Orphan. It was supposed to be a little like suspense-horror type of movie. Instead of screaming in horror the audience(including me) was laughing. But it wasn't really that bad. It was kinda okay. After the movie I did some shopping at Victoria's Secret. Gosh, I'll miss that shop.. When I got home I watched Watchmen. It was still good. And wow.. Malin Åkerman. Her lips are superthin though..and her nose is kinda interesting too.
Today I showered, cleaned my room a little, folded clothes and put them into the closet, wrote a new 'to-do'-list and then went to El Cajon. To be more specific:

I went into couple of shops and grabbed a Pure chocolate IceBlended from The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf.

Then I took the Trolley to SAKS. I bought a Badgley Mischka -pencil skirt and a SAKS- print dress. They were both on sale..luckily. So I didn't pay $250 for the BM-skirt and $180 SAKS -dress.

After that, I did some other shopping.
A few days ago, I bought an awesome hairproduct:
I'm not 100% convinced does it really work, but it smells soooo good! There was no "DO NOT EAT"-text on it, so maybe I'll end up eating it some beautiful day.
At home I had an amazing dinner. I prepared it all by myself. And so proud of it. It doesn't really have a name.. yet. The ingredients: red grapes, a can of tuna, some cottage cheese, some mexican blend shredded cheese + cashew nuts. It was delicious. It looked gross. That's why I'm not going to publish any photos of it.
I'm trying to visit every shop in Santee. And the next one is this:

Can't wait to visit THAT one! Next to that one, is an amazing doughnut-shop. Mary's. Or something. The donuts are cheap and good! It's such a temptation really..It's so close!!
Oh, and I saw a Pirate-family today! And some manga-characters. And plenty of other costume people coming from Comic-Con. The whole Trolley was full of them! One of them stared at me very angrily..:S Maybe because I..well, kinda laughed at them. But I don't think he knew that! Unless..he read my mind!! UUUH. SPOOOKY! Things got even more spooky when..suddenly..

THEY WERE ALL GONE!
Next weekend will start early: I'll have the Friday off! At least I think I'll.
I still need to go to:
-Six Flags
-DisneyWorld
-Mexico
-ROADTRRRRIIIP! with Marke
Only the last one is at least somehow planned. The first 3..not.
Can't wait the roadtrip:D I bought a Hello Kitty-notebook and a folder for it!<3

But I know you, You have decided, Where's my wise husband?
So crush me baby, I'm all ears.
I'm trying to watch The Wrestler. Starring Mickey Rourke. I've seen the first 10mins now and I'm ready to push 'STOP'. And start channel surffing and find something more watchable.
Gosh. Those men look SO hideous. Those muscles are just disturbingly ugly!!
If this won't get any better, I have to change the DVD and watch something else. Something damn entertaining and good..not boring and stuid like this. Maybe I'll try to watch this some other time. But now I just CAN'T!
Today after work I cleaned HALF of my closet. The result: a lot of "new" stuff found and 4 plastic bags full of crap! Nice. I also cleaned couple of bags and found heaps of stuff! Stuff I thought I had lost for good! Really! It's just amazing, considering the fact that I use one of those bags almost daily! When I sometimes lose my mind, I'd better to check that bag..It may be there.
I got a fortune cookie for dinner:

Can't wait :D

Fairytale gone bad.
OK. This is just bullshit. BULLSHIT I SAY!
So. According to couple of sources..today.. at Comic-Con.. not just Robert Pattinson..
but Peter Facinelli, Taylor Lautner, Tim Burton.. ecc..
AND JOHNNY DEPP!! FUUUUUUUCK.
Yeah yeah, I know I said I would NOT force myself out there even if there was Johnny Depp.. but really. Who I thought I was kidding? Now I'm kinda pissed.
Actually I'm really pissed.
So because of my reluctance to wear a weird outfit for a day and to pay some amount of money.. I missed R.Pattz and some others INCLUDING JOHNNY DEPP.
I guess I need to hate myself for this.
btw, i watched Vicky Cristina Barcelona. Pretty decent movie. I liked it.

"Is this some kind of old poison?"
For the first time ever, the title of this post is NOT irrelevant!
The title is what a 2-year-old asked me after I gave her pizza for dinner. Pizza that I had made with my own two hands! Almost. Actually it was DiGiorno who made it. I just put it into the oven and took out after 22mins. But yeah, it's always a pleasure to get some feedback? Right?
Today I went to the library again. I got 2 DVDs,3 books and 3 CDs.
And now..to keep things real..exciting.. and at least a little tolerable.. Jatkan postaustani suomen ihanalla kielellä! Tällainen kielen vaihdos ei voi tehdä hyvää millekkään tai kellekkään. Ensinnäkin, suomeks kirjottaessa saatan todennäköisemmin seota sanoissani tai muuten vain harhautua jonnekkin aivoni syövereihin.
Lainasin tosiaan tänään pari asiaa kirjastosta:Linkin Park'in, The Big Sleep'in ja The Used'in levyt. The Big Sleepin otin vaan koska siin oli kannessa söpö poni..tai hevonen. Tai aasi. Tai muuli. Joku kavioeläin. Mut ei lehmä! Se on varma. Eiku hetkonen, onko lehmä edes kavieläin vai sorkkaeläin! Liikaa aikaa siit et oon nähny lehmän face-to-face.. The Used'in levyn kansikuvasta en sano mitään, koska mullei oo sanoja kuvaa sitä. Ja Linkin Parkin oli vaan ihan parus linkkari-tyylinen. Lainasin myös "Pig Pig gets a job" by David McPhail. Aivan superasiallinen kirja!! Ainakin Höntti ja Komppa tykkäsivät!(nimet ei muutettu. Ne oikeesti kutsuu itseään noilla nimillä, joskus.)
Toinen kirja jonka lainasin on: Desert sense: camping,hiking and biking in hot, dry climates. Miks? No, että oisin vähemmän tuksuna sit siel mun ja Marken roadtripillä! Tietäisin ainakin jotain! Olettaen, et mä luen ton kirjan! Se on täs se rankin homma ehkä.. Kolmannella sivulla on jo Mountain Lion'in kuva.. Voi siis olla, että pakko lukea toi kirja et osaan sit puolustaa itteäni (ja tarvittaessa Markea) mountain lion ilta! Tai mountain lioneilta.. En viel tiiä et liikkuuko ne laumoissa vai keskenään..
Tänä viikonloppuna oli suunnitelmissa lauantaina mennä rannalle ja illalla johonkin downtowniin. Ja sunnuntaina vaik ajaa Six Flagsiin! Mut mitäs hittoa tapahtui? Nyt suunnitelmissa ei olekaan mitään! Miksi? Noh, ystäväiseni onkin töissä kello neljästä alkaen ja toinen kaverini tahtoo nukkua puoleenpäivään>> alle 4tuntia aikaa tehdä jotain lauantaina! Ja sunnuntai: ystäväni ei saa ajaa käytössä olevallaan autolla Six Flagsiin asti.. Joka on siis vähän Los Angelesista eteenpäin vissiinkin. FUCK. No ei se mitään. Meen vaikka sit kattoo The Ugly Truth-leffan.. istuu Starbucksiin.. ajelen Trolleyllä Chula Vistaan ja San Ysindroon ja takas kotiin.. Eiköhän se päivä siinä mene. Ennenki menny! Tarvis säästää rahaa tohon roadtrippiin, ei siit tie mitä löytyy matkalla! Haluun jotain matkamuistomaista krääsää jota voi laittaa vaik kaulakoruun :D Las Vegasin matkamuisto on ehkä yks rakkaimmist ikinä: mun tatuointini<3 Tekee itseasias mieli ottaa uus! Joku piiiiiieni vaik varpaaseen. Ehkä sitku oon nii rikas, et on varaa mennä pedikyyriin joka pvä.
Takas in English..
This is one of those days when I feel that things are sooooo clear but also so fucking messed up that I don't wanna think about it. Like the weekend: I have plans, but I have no plans! I'm going on a roadtrip, but I have no plans really! I'm going to F-land, but I have no plans what then!
I feel so bad already. Whywhywhy..

Just watched Milk. It was waaaaay better than I thought it would be. The story was good. Who ever made the casting for this film, did an excellent job! I don't really have much to say. It was just good! It wasn't too short, not too long either..
It wasn't too predictable.
It wasn't REEEEAALLY good though, I'm just so excited for being positively surprised! I had pretty low expectations..
And oh, how adorable Diego Luna<3 Just wanted to grab him out of the TV screen and just look at him. I guess I'll watch Y Tu Mamá También tomorrow. And find a way to see Rudo Y Cursi.

Calling too late.
R.Pattz will be in SD tomorrow. There will be other great people too. So he will be here tomorrow. Am I excited? Am I going there to see him? No and No. First of all, I'm working till 5.30pm and it takes like 40mins to get to downtown. And I don't have a ticket to that event..Okay, now I'm saying it: Comic-Con.
If I had a ticket and a day-off, I think I still couldn't go there.
So, I'm not excited. Nor disappointed.
Comic-Con just isn't a place where I would go. Not even if Pattinson was there. Or Johnny Depp( saw him once already<3). Or Cam Gigandet. Or Rodrigo Santoro. Or Gennaro Gattuso. Or Ashton Kutcher. Or Orlando Bloom. Or Peter Franzen. Or Justin Timberlake (okay now I started to doubt :D)
Maybe if all those listed above were there, I could force myself in there. And maybe find a cape to wear. And weird make-up. Plus fake pointy ears. But that all would be just for a camouflage.

Mandarins?
Yesterday was HOT. But I still forced myself to leave the house and do something outside. I ended up going to the postoffice(bought 4 x 98c stamps and thought about buying a flat rate box for the clothes I'm supposed to send to my mom), Walgreens (bought 3 t-shirts), KOHL's (just checked if they had the shorts I want/need) and library( got 2 DVDs and a CD).
I still don't fully understand why is it, that there's gotta be a voice at pedestrian crossings telling people which street one is now crossing. Isn't just voice saying "GO GO" enough? I think it's more than enough! Just a red light and a green light is perfectly enough! But 3 different symbols and a voice and a vibrating buttong at the pole? As I walked at one of the poles to push the button, I thought how much the voice of the pole annoys me. Maybe it was the heat that had messed up everything, but the pole's voice was trembling very badly! Whatta gleeful moment! I found it really funny..like really, laugh out loud-funny! Now that I think of it, it must have been the heat that had messed up with my head too! It wasn't funny. Not really. At that moment, yes. Now, No.
What else I did yesterday? Watched Rolemodels-movie. Some funny moments and entertaining moments for sure. The ending shouldn't even get a name 'ending'! The movie just stopped. The way it ended was just so.. so.. easy. I would have done it with still photos and couple of explaining sentences. Like "After this person X went to the prison and person Y bought a puppy called Yugoslavia. Person K stopped drinking and moved to Sweden".
I also got into a fight with a dog and a 4-year-old. The dog bit me (okay just my finger) and the 4-year-old broke my finger(it really felt like it! But actually only the nail got broken). Today a 2-year-old bit my nose and drooled on my eye. Just loving this right now.
Today I'm going to watch Milk. And listen to some awesome music I got. I'm not sure how long I'm going to survive in F-land. My guess is still about 8days. Two weeks in F-land and I'll be ready for mental institution.

"I just wanna break you down so badly"
I've been thinking about this for a while now..
When I go back to F-land, I'm gonna be überhappy/übersad for the first 8days. Then I'll have a serious chat with N.And find out what I wanna do.
I did some surfing (on the Internet. Lame, huh?) and found a couple of interesting things/ideas.
1) I could go to Syria for 3months.
2) I could move to London. (and live in a box or be a personal assistant)
3) I could go to live and work in London for a while.
4) I can let myself die in Eura.
5) I can fly back to So-Cal and live in a box behind Wal-Mart.
6) I can fly back to So-Cal and live in a tent in downtown ( D. told me it's legal to do so!)
7) I can do less legal thing and just fly here and live here and there.
8) I can get married to someone. (Just mentioning so you know I know that there's this option too!)
9) I can go to Italy and do something. Work I guess.
10) I can stay in Finland and start studying something( This is the problem: WHAT WOULD I STUDY? There are like million things I'm interested in!)
11) I can skip my flight back to F-land and start living in a box already!
12) I can skip my flight back to F-land and die here!
13) I can move to L.A and become a moviestar! (and live in a box with couple of other homeless people)
14) I can go back to Eura and find a dead-end job and work. Work. Work. and die.
15) I can go back to Eura and work for 2yrs at some dead-end work and save the money and then come back and marry someone who's broke but still a citizen. Then get an AMAZING job (and become a moviestar ;D) and make myself(and him) RICH!
16) I can go to some random school in F-land and live like a normal.. average finnish person! (Just thinking about that makes me shiver!)
17) Get wasted.
Ideas are more than welcome<3

"He won't do a thing I ask! It's always six o'clock now!"
You know the feeling when you know you should be angry?
What about the feeling when you THINK you should be angry?
But you are not.
Maybe you are keeping your hopes up and tell yourself things will get better.
You smile and say "Things are great and getting greater every day"
But they are not.
Do you know how it feels like when you don't know what to do?
Or what to think? And if you think one way and then do something.
Later you just realize the other way was the right way. And you can't go back in time and redo things.
Have you ever done the right decision? If you just answered YES, good for you.
But have you ever felt that that right decision was the wrong decision anyway?
That you shouldn't have done the right thing.
Maybe you gave in and did the most unusual thing.
Maybe you gave up your pride and got nothing in return.
Maybe you got hit by a meteorite because you helped the old lady with her groceries.
Life ain't fair and it's gonna laugh right at your face when you mess up.
My life is laughing right now. I'm not!

"Dont be nervous, or I'll have you executed on the spot"
The day started in the best possible way: I woke up at 8.28am(my shift started 8.30am). I was so sure it was Sunday when I turned off my alarm(= my green Nokia<3)! I had to check which day it was. And everything seemed to disagree with me. It really was Monday. I went to sleep somewhere between midnight and 1.30. I was too hyper to sleep. I couldn't stop thinking about things and places and people.
Today I heard that my favourite (and the only good) Finnish actor was in True Blood last night! I didnt see the episode on TV but luckily there's Internet ;) Aaw.And there he was: Peter Franzen<3 And he spoke Swedish. Very hot name too: Hrolf! Of course they had to speak Swedish.. Vampires+ Finnish=nausea. I think I need to start using my Swedish skills so I won't totally forget how good I'm at it :D Maybe I'll write some posts in SWEDISH! What do you think about that?
Now I'm off to paint my nails. No light blue at this time.

por su seguridad, empuje para abrir las puertas.
I tried a thing today. Yes, I was bored. The dinner wasn't ready so I was kinda hungry too. I hadn't laughed enough so I decided to do something fun. I also felt like a shit, so I had to make myself feel like my usual Queen of the World. So what did I do? Don't you guess already?
I tried how many marshmellows I manage to fit into my mouth! Of course! Didn't really break the world record..too bad. How many I got? I'll tell you later on.
It's a curious thing. Eating. And playing with food. Years ago when my little sis was smaller..younger and well, yeah, stupider. She put a peanut into her nose. I think it was kinda hilarious. Later on she also tried " a diamond" and a bean. They all fitted perfectly into her little nose. And of course she had to be taken to the nurse's office so those things could be removed. I totally understand that people eat weird things when they are young(some people do it when they are old too) but why anyone wants to put something into his/her NOSE? What does nose represent? Is it some kind of place where to hide nice things? I don't know do I know anything nice that's also so small that it would fit into my nose.. Any suggestions? Not that I'm going to try!
What kind of weird things people eat then? Sure everyone has heard of "chinese people eat cats and dogs and other people"-thing, but like really.. When I was in HongKong I didn't get anything weird.. a normal sandwich. Normal cookies. Normal hot chocolate that burned my mouth inside and out. There's nothing weird in Hong Kong! At least not at the airport..that's the only place I saw. Okay I did look out of the windows but I didnt really go OUT..
That's the Hong Kong I saw. WOW! It was over a year ago! 7/12/2008. Wow. From Hong Kong I flew to Kuala Lumpur. I'll tell you more about it some other time. Can't just briefly talk about it.. It was so awesome. But more about weird things that I've eaten. I can't help myself mentioning this: Kuala Lipis. If my traveling mate ever reads this: I'm glad we survived!
I can't bring myself to think about all the things there, but some? Yes. This is not exactly one weird dish I had.. It's more like the place where it was eaten..and with who.. and who prepared it and how..etc. Well, we jumped into a jeep that took us into the jungle. (Kuala Lipis itsself is in a jungle already, so we went even deeper)..
Our "guide" was a local man who brought some food supplies with us. He promised to cook for us when we're there. And he said we will be there in 45mins. It took 2hrs to actually get there. We walked around the jungle with him and 2 others(German tourists), went into the bat cave(to get there we had to walk on a jittery..broken..weak bridge and not fall down into a river), get rid of the 10cm long leeches on our ankles and legs(i still have a couple of scars left), stopped breathing and moving as we encountered a herd of wildboars(or something..we didn't really see them clearly..but they were grey and made horrible angry-pig-kinda-noise).. and finally reached the place where we were supposed to eat. Then we just waited him to prepare the food. From a chicken he had brought with us. The food he prepared was good. It had a lot of chicken, noodles, spices and bones and muscles and blood vessels. Delicious! The atmosphere of the lunch was terrific! All kinds of weird bugs flying around, leeches sucking blood in legs and ankles and ants jogging around the table. That man knew how to impress me indeed! A lot of things I ate in Kuala Lipis were surprisingly edible even though I didn't have a slightest clue of what it was. One thing is for sure: I ate a looooot of rice! And that chicken. At least it looked like the chickens I've seen. And I also ate some kind of fish. How do I know? Well, it laid there on the plate as I cut a piece of it..and ate it. I still remember the way she/he/it looked at me.. It was sort of dead look. You know, like a totally expressionless face. The one that makes you wonder "Is he angry? Or is he happy?" .. (This picture is here to show that the jungle was amazing! Even tho the leeches almost ate me alive when I put my legs in that water.. Yes, very wise thing to do: to put legs in that kind of water)
I've also tasted all kind of frutti di mare, but also deer, elk and bear. And some birds. And something I don't know what it was. Something from Estonia. Had to taste it. But what can you do when there are approximately 10 and ½ estonians staring at you? Oh, one of the funny things I ate in Malaysia was somekind of dried fish. But wow it was good. But still I'm staying away from Beef Jerky. I tried dried peach/apricot with spice (shuddering..) and it was .. (shuddering).. well..not a thing I'll ever eat again! EVER! Not even if you bring 11 estonians to stare at me! The most disgusting thing I've ever tasted is, no doubt, DURIAN. The taste is like rotten onion, puke and something else you would not like to eat. But if you ever get a chance to taste it, DO IT! Taste it! I did. Couple of times actually. Looks tasty, doesn't it?
Have you ever played the game where you tie up the other player's eyes and then let him/her taste different foods? I have. I'd like to play it again sometime and have Durian to make someone taste it. I'm not sure how people would react. Since not so many know about this fruit-of-horrors. The reaction might be something like my older sister's when I made her eat dog's food: "I'm not playing with you anymore!I'll never ever play this game with you again!" As a girl who used to eat cat's food, I don't really see why she got so mad. And even if she didn't like the taste, I still don't get it. I ate Durian, even though I hated the taste and wanted to rip my stomach open when I had finished it! At least I tried and had a happy horrible experience.. My sister did what she said: she hasn't played that game with me ever since I fed her the dogfood.
By the way, I got 5. 5 marshmellows in my mouth. I told you I'd tell you later on.

Say it again for me, 'cause I love the way it feels when you are telling me I'm the only one who blows your mind
Once again I had an awesome dinner. Homecooked and still a lot better than most restaurant meals I've ever eaten. I'd like to say I cooked it all and I'm the best and yes, I can cook for you too..BUT, I did nothing to get the dinner ready. Actually, I may have been on the way and only a hindrance wandering around the kitchen area sipping my Coca-Cola. And now it's dessert-time! The dinner was Chinese. The dessert is mm.. Finnish, I'd say.
I was planning on seeing a movie today, but there was really nothing to see.. Nothing that I haven't seen already. Can't wait to see Sherlock Holmes-movie, Alice in Wonderland-movie and The New Moon- movie. The sad thing is, that when New Moon starts playing in theatres, I'll be in F-land! Not sure when it starts playing there..maybe next year. (Which means that I'm planning on commiting a crime..)
Today I had a meeting in El Cajon. After that I headed to Parkway Plaza to just wander around aimlessly. Hah-hah, I really did just wander around this time. I did buy a ring and a pair of earrings from Charlotte Russe. 2 for $8. Then I took the Trolley from Arnele Avenue to Gillespie Field. Yep, one stop only. And I was a badass and didn't even buy a ticket.( Buahahahhhaaa..) Then a familiar face stopped me and offered me a ride. It was like 100degrees outside so a ride home instead of walking about 30mins in the heat was the winner, no doubt.
I just noticed..
1) it's going to be 20th day of JULY tomorrow. Which means it's A MONTH till my 20th B-day. >>age crisis! I will be an old hag.. another 20 years and I'll 40!
2) About a month and my visa expires!
3) A little over a month.. and THE MINIROADTRIP BEGINS!!
Haven't I yet told you about it? Probably not. But NOW I will.
Let me introduce you, ladies and gentlemen..
So the plan is that two finnish blonds: Marke and Jonna, are going on the road! The roadtrip is called The Official Tuksu Tour! Marke, I know you will read this: WE REALLY NEED TO PRINT THIS PIC OUT AND GLUE AND TAPE IT INTO OUR CAR!(You have made the reservation already..? Right?RIGHT?)
I'd ike to skip all the non-sense behing this "Tuksu tour"-name but I'm not sure can I!
Okay, briefly. Since there was no good info in Wikipedia about her. So.. Tuksu aka Johanna Tukiainen is a finnish female who is a glamour-model, a dancer, a singer and a hostess. (Can she really do all that? Nope. And this isn't even debatable!) She is also a celebrity. Why? Because she texted with our/Finland's foreign minister! (Yes, texted! That's how we do things in Finland! We don't call ( I shudder when I even think about it!), WE TEXT!) It was considered as a scandal in Finland, but for Tuksu it was a brilliant thing! She became famous! And as a result, she got several prizes and a lot of fame. To name a few of those prizes: Motherfucker of the Year-prize from one radio channel and The most Inane/Useless/Meaningless/Insignificant Celebrity of the Year 2008. She's also been on the cover of some magazines after she TEXTED with Mickey Rourke. Now, you can google her. And yes, I'm serious. Purtroppo.
And now you must be thinking "Why in hell did we name our roadtrip after her?" Well, we have done couple of stupid things too( haven't yet made it to the cover though..still working on it! ) and we are both blond..and we are both from Finland. (Okay, she is. I'm not. I'm american-italian. I am. I am. I'll be if I keep repeating it, right?)
So about the roadtrip itsself.. The trip starts from Los Angeles, where my dear friend Marke will tuksu with our rentalcar towards to San Diego. She will pick me up and the we will drive to Phoenix. We will stay at hotels,motels,hostels and IN A TENT! The last time I slept in a tent was like 10 years ago! I have no idea how to build up a tent! The tent I used back then, was my dad's old tent! I have no idea to use modern tents.. Wish me luck!
From Phoenix we will drive ehm.. somewhere.. and somewhere.. and somewhere.. and to San Francisco :D So.. Yes, everything is very neatly planned.
Okay, I tried some new music today. Marie Digby. Patrick Wolf. And this.. http://www.myspace.com/johnnolanmusic
Yes, you are welcome ;P

Okay, briefly. Since there was no good info in Wikipedia about her. So.. Tuksu aka Johanna Tukiainen is a finnish female who is a glamour-model, a dancer, a singer and a hostess. (Can she really do all that? Nope. And this isn't even debatable!) She is also a celebrity. Why? Because she texted with our/Finland's foreign minister! (Yes, texted! That's how we do things in Finland! We don't call ( I shudder when I even think about it!), WE TEXT!) It was considered as a scandal in Finland, but for Tuksu it was a brilliant thing! She became famous! And as a result, she got several prizes and a lot of fame. To name a few of those prizes: Motherfucker of the Year-prize from one radio channel and The most Inane/Useless/Meaningless/Insignificant Celebrity of the Year 2008. She's also been on the cover of some magazines after she TEXTED with Mickey Rourke. Now, you can google her. And yes, I'm serious. Purtroppo.
And now you must be thinking "Why in hell did we name our roadtrip after her?" Well, we have done couple of stupid things too( haven't yet made it to the cover though..still working on it! ) and we are both blond..and we are both from Finland. (Okay, she is. I'm not. I'm american-italian. I am. I am. I'll be if I keep repeating it, right?)
So about the roadtrip itsself.. The trip starts from Los Angeles, where my dear friend Marke will tuksu with our rentalcar towards to San Diego. She will pick me up and the we will drive to Phoenix. We will stay at hotels,motels,hostels and IN A TENT! The last time I slept in a tent was like 10 years ago! I have no idea how to build up a tent! The tent I used back then, was my dad's old tent! I have no idea to use modern tents.. Wish me luck!
From Phoenix we will drive ehm.. somewhere.. and somewhere.. and somewhere.. and to San Francisco :D So.. Yes, everything is very neatly planned.
Okay, I tried some new music today. Marie Digby. Patrick Wolf. And this.. http://www.myspace.com/johnnolanmusic
Yes, you are welcome ;P
This can't be the real world now.
I just did something I haven't done for almost a year! I took off my Agatha-necklace.. People who have seen me during this past year, have probably seen it. It's the one with 4 silver starts and a shape of a dog. And not just some random dog, but my own baby: Nappi. (Aaw my Nappi<3) Instead of that necklace, I'm wearing a Jade Circle I bought when I was in Malaysia. (Aaw Malaysia<3) So now I'm just waiting good things to happen to me ;)
Oh how I miss Nappi. One day when I was in mm.. somewhere in Orange County, maybe in Newport, I saw a dog just like my Nappi(not exactly like her of course) and I felt the urgent need to "save" him/her from the woman who was dragging him/her behind her in a leash. "Heartless bitch", I thought.
Couple of days ago, I tried to write a list about things I miss about and from Finland. Here's what I got
1) Nappi
2) my bicycle
3) having a good reason to be broke: no job!
And that's pretty much it. I argue a hell lot less with my siblings and parents when I can only email/chat in MSN with them. And I don't have a problem with that! It's actually pretty awesome!
I have no idea what else I could possibly miss! Speaking Finnish to everyone? Being a finn with other finns? Sauna? Understanding why people talk to me? Not needing to guess what people mean when they say something weird? Nope. Sometimes I love the drama and mystery caused by all this "a finn in a big american world".
Thing's I love HERE will be listed some other day. And FYI, I'm gonna use people's actual names. Probably. Or actually, I'll maybe do something even better and rename people funnily! Invent new nicknames for my people and places. It's gonna be so much fun! (Nevertheless, I'll cry when I do it. I'm pretty sure of this! And no, I'm not a cry-baby.) I need to get pictures with all those people and places. But I think I'm too shy to get pictures with people!!
I'm coming back here though. I need to get back or I'll get seriously depressed!
Now I need to find stamps for my (OLDer) sister's birthday card..

Happy little train.
Yesterday I found out, that a shop that I thought was an auto parts shop is actually a thrift store. For my disappointment, it wasn't a good thrift store. It smelled bad, the stuff was bad.. Another shop I checked out was Sally's beautysupply shop. It smelled good, the stuff was good. So I liked it. And I bought a new nailpolish! A light blue one! No, I'm not Suri Cruise. I just felt like buying a light blue nailpolish. And when I got home, I felt like using it! So, now I have light blue nails! And I feel like a 10-year-old.
Yesterday I also bought the newest issue of ELLE-magazine. A little reluctantly. Why? Because of Miley Cyrus! She was on the cover! Why? You tell me!
Today I bought a summer dress from American Eagle Outfitters, a white knit cardigan by Guess, an orange tubetop(it's not plain orange, there's some decoration in it) from Macy's, Covergirl and Maybeline makeup from Wal-Mart and another Children of Bodom -t-shirt from Hot Topic. The COB-shirt is not for me. It's for my little brother. Hope he will like it, even tho it's a little too big for him.
For the last 7 days, I've been addicted to a CD. Let's just say that the first time I listened to it, I cried. But I loooooooved it. And I still looooooove it! Thank god I have the songs in my iPod touch so I dont need to be afraid that the CD will be worn out anytime soon. Oh, I can't wait to touch "play" again<3
Once again I had another "where are you from? wow, from finland! thats cool! what are you doing here?etc etc"-conversation. Next time someone asks me where I'm from, I'll lie. I'll tell them that I'm from China! or from the Moon! Let's see will they play along.
I have no idea what I'll do tomorrow. I need to go to a meeting at least. And wake up early because of that. Damn.
In case someone wonders, the title of this post"Happy little train" is totally irrelevant. I'm not happy like a little train. And I'm not a train.

As I said, persuade me.
I saw Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince. Now I'm even more sure that Harry Potter is an idiot. And Draco Malfoy is stuck with the same hairstyle he had in the first movie. I'm just wondering couple of things..
1) Why Ron ate Harry's chocolate? Hasn't he heard that it's rude to eat other person's chocolates? My theory is that this was just another chance to show people how "awesome" Harry is.
2) This is even more curious: Okay, so Harry knows something about magic, right? And if he's in a dark cave and needs light, he just does his thing and gets light, right? So, if he needs water, why doesn't he just use his damned magic wand and get water? Instead, he reaches into dark water.. And in a magical dark cave, does he really think there's nothing in that water?
3) Why didn't they tell Ron the truth about his "break-up"? Really.. Just simply tell what happened. Real friends wouldn't lie about that sort of thing. But who can blame the Chosen One? No one. 'Cause he is sooo heroic? Fuck that.
4) So Dumbledore died? And everyone just stared at his dead body? Eh? No screaming? No crying? Nothing?
5) Why Harry did nothing to help Dumbledore? Is he heroic only when someone's watching his heroic acts?
Anyway, the movie was okay. Well done. Had couple of funny seconds. Helena Bonham Carter was amazing like always. Some scenes where visually astonishing. Harry Potter..as a character..is boring. He does nothing unexpected!
I don't need Harry Potter in my life.
Was the movie waste of time? Probably not. Waste of money? No. Because I got a free bag of popcorn ;)

I'm not socially retarded, I'm from Finland.
I'm soooo not american. One could think I had learned something living here for a while now. It's just so damn hard to remember to say "Excuse me?" instead of a simple "HUH?". I'm not a rude person. I think. So if I'm not an american, what am I? Am I a finn? Hell no. I dont like sauna, I don't really hate swedish and russian people, I don't feel like a finn. I sure as hell look like one though. Sometimes I think I need a shirt that says "I'm not socially retarded, i'm from Finland". I feel like a retard sometimes..very often actually. For example, when people here say: "I'll call/talk to you later!" It doesnt really mean that. Whatever people say here, it's not what they mean! Maybe they really like my shirt/earrings/ring/shoes when they say so, or maybe it's just that I'm becoming so skeptical. Sometimes I act like a real american though, or at least try. I have had a couple of very good small-talks and praised others' hair/shirt/skirt/nails.. I'm so embarrassed to admit this: I really didn't like the shirt she was wearing. And to be honest, the pink eyeshadow wasn't a good choice. But what can I do? These people seem to know too well that sometimes the truth is ugly. And hearing the truth might hurt their feelings. So, they tell little lies to keep everyone safe. The idea is very nice indeed.
I'm not saying, that the finnish way of interacting with people is any better. Talking: minimal. Truth: maximal. (Maximal doesn't mean that finns don't lie!) So that means, if you talk, you talk because you want to and you really have something to say and you really mean what you say.
That's not how the things always are though. Me, for example, now that I'm learning how to do things in american way, I may have lied in the process and ignored the truth and even ignored the tiny voice inside my head. I'm not 100% american yet. I'm sure I'll never be. I guess will always flinch a little when I tell people how gorgeous hat they're wearing. Unless, I really like the hat. But back to how things are done in Finland: If I tell someone I think their item X looks awesome, they probably won't say "Oh, thanks!" but stay quiet and look at me suspiciously. And maybe they will think :" Oh no, she wants to steal my X! I'd better to hide this and never use it again!"
Now I'm off to the mall. I'll try to find 3 persons whose hat/ring/earrings/shirt I wanna steal : D Okay just kidding ;) Or am I?Really?

Day when I fell down from a rollercoaster and got a Ken-like boyfriend.
I got off early. At 2pm. Usually I get off 5.30pm. I'm gonna check out couple of stores here in my hometown where I've never been before. I'll tell you more about it later(= when I get home). I've decided to buy something too. I already know it's a bad idea. Let's see what kind of things I'll realize I need this time. One thing is for sure: a new toothbrush. A green one. I've tried to find one for couple of weeks already.
It's like 90degrees outside. Très Bien!

drooling hummingbirds
Everyone (read: The Reelz-channel) is talking about the new Harry Potter -movie. I have no idea should I go ahead and just see it. Part of me yells "Hell no!" and the other says: "Oh c'mon.. give it a try!" My relationship with the whole Harry Potter hype is slightly complicated.
I just detest him: Harry Potter. The first movie was totally watchable..After all, they were just little kids back then. As was I. It was soooo much fun to rewind to Draco Malfoy's face when the troll came in.. It was fun. But now that I think about it, it's not! So the first movie isn't that watchable anyway..anymore.
Seriously, a kid with a scar and funky glasses saves the day again and again? And you really need to write 7 books about it? Isn't one enough to tell the point:Mickey Mouse - a tail + a magic wand = Harry Potter. And fyi, I don't like Mickey! He's so annoying! He always knows how to catch a villain, he's got the money for anything he wants(still he uses the same clothes most of the time) and a lot of friends to help him. And his friends..oh, I shouldn't even start with this one! But yeah, he's gotta nice girlfriend and there's no other mouse who's trying to seduce her. And one of his best friends is Goofy.. Mickey looks even smarter and luckier with a stupid friend! Poor Goofy.. Another good friend of Mickey's is a POLICE! And usually he asks for Mickey's help! Or even worse: Mickey just decides to go and help his buddy! Sooo, there's a trained police and a mouse. And the mouse solves the crime! It just isn't fair, not to mention REAL! Donald the Duck is another thing. Oh, how I love him! His life isn't easy. And whose life really is easy? No one's! Except for Mickey and Harry.
There's just nothing I can get out of the Harry Potter -stuff.. I tried to read the books in English and in Finnish. I watched most of the movies too. Listened to people hyping about it. I bought Harry Potter-candies to make myself like him even in some low level! But even the candies tasted bad!
I have tried to lure myself to watch "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire". There's Robert Pattinson in it, but I still can't make myself to watch it. I'm not a huge fan of R.Pattz though. REALLY! You may be able to cause me a minor heart attack by telling me that he was in the same school as you were (and at the same time!). But I'd still claim that there are miiiiiilllions of bigger fans than me.
Anyway, the new Harry Potter. There's no Robert Pattinson. There's no Donald Duck. There's just a Mickey Mouse without a tail and with a magic wand. It's not a short movie. It's a long movie. I'm not sure can I spend ~10bucks on a 2,5hr movie that I dislike already. Not the movie itsself though! Just the character! I have nothing against the magic wands and spells and owls.. Ron Weasley looks like a nightmare but at least he's got some problems! And having problems makes everything real. After all, easy come - easy go. Some HP-fan sure thinks now: "But Voldemort wants to kill Harry? Isn't that a problem?" Well, not for me! If Harry was killed in the first book, I could at least pity him! "Oh poor fellow died." But no, no,no, he stays alive and more books will be written..
I could go on for hours with this subject. I guess I'll continue some other day.. maybe when I've seen the newest movie. If I see it. I guess I'll. And I also guess I will not change my opinion about HP.

numero uno.
This is dedicated to the girl who inspired me to start a blog.
I'm not sure am I going to write in English every day.. Probably maybe.
Someone may wonder why _I_ need/want/have a blog.. Well, that's an easy one:
a) to let people know how AWESOME I am. Of course!(okay, just kidding,at the moment at least..)
b) to share (that's the keyword in my job! ) some funny moments of my life
c) to complain ( this is my blog, and I'm going to try to stay as honest as possible)
d) I need more than 140letters to tell what I wanna tell! (twitter)
