Not everything is gold that glitters.



"Finnish Project Runway? Muodin huipulle? Really? That's something I need to watch! Asap and every single second of it!"
I've watched it now. I watched part of the first episode: "Nah, maybe they r just trying too hard.. Next week it will be better"
I watched part of the second episode: "Hmm.. Wow..This is so boring. They r so boring. The do everything so wrong.. Maybe they will learn their lesson when they get some feedback from this and last week.."
I watched 80% of the newest,3rd episode: "FOR GOD'S SAKE! Do you know anything about fashion? Or style? Or even about making good TV-programmes? Or if nothing else, just how to entertain?"

THAT PROGRAMME SUCKS A FAT ASS BIG TIME!
1) The judges arent really any GREAT fashion experts.. For example.
Minna Cheung: Used be the host of Inno-programme(they decorated apartments..) and she is supposed to be a designer of 2or+ by Yat. Never heard of...... And the "brand" is her husband's.Plus, SERIOUSLY! It's Heidi Klum whose boots she is _trying_ to fill! MINNA IS NO HEIDI AT ALL!


2) The "Tim Gunn" of the programme is.. ehm.. Jaakko Selin. He's been a JOURNALIST in a couple of magazines/newspapers. He's been an assistant in some programmes..and a host in others. His comments about the outfits are just plain boring or JUST WRONG. GOD!

3) The host of Muodin Huipulle- extra is a stand-up comedian! Plus an actor! And a creative director(according to the wikipedia at least but who knows..) This show is supposed to be about FASHION! STYLE! And this idiot is dressed in hoodies, jeans and suits that dont fit. Did I already mention that he is overweight? And a comedian? And he sucks? There's just NOTHING about him that makes him FIT in that kind of programme! JESUS! It's like making fun of the whole consept of the show having him there..



4) Some of the designers know what they are doing. Some of them even have their own lines already! So WHY they r still there? WHY they were taken in that show? Some designers there are just so lost..

5) A lot of people in that show try to be very.. something.. I have no idea r they trying to be fashionable, stylish, chic,unique or haute couture! Whatever it is, it doesnt work! But gotta admit that SOME of them are trying very hard.


The whole programme is about trying. Trying on the outfits. Trying to make a good outfit. But clearly the contestants arent the only ones that are trying too hard! Or maybe it's just lack of the skill..lack of trying.
Theres so much improvement needed! The lights. The make-up of the judges (for example..). Filming. The places.
Do they really trust that much that everyone who likes Project Runway wants to(and WILL) watch this? This is like ruining a national monument. Killing the last extinct animal. Licking the blood from the ground after the Queen is assassinated. Something disgusting and ruined for good. It will take a while that I'll even try to watch any of the new finnish shows..especially the ones that r based in an american show!

They should get some real names in there.. And I know! Getting some real names COULD BE hard.. maybe impossible! But how about even trying to get some semi-great people from Sweden? UK? Some former models? Or maybe just admit the big mistake they did when they started this show here, give up and let the professionals do the good job!?

This show sucks so bad that I'd rather watch The Mentalist. And thats exatcly what I'm doing right now.

Definitely stupid. Maybe in love.

There's not much that I did today.
Or yesterday.

Yeah, yesterday.

Just checked and it's 00.30. So it's Friday. Urgh. So, my Thursday began pretty slowly. I remember waking up at some time when I heard the kids talking and I just checked that are they in my bed or on the floor. And since they were doing great and still in their own beds I closed my eyes again and fell asleep again. When did I wake up? Well, eventually. Somewhere between 10 and 11 I guess. I had breakfast, read the paper(especially the article about blink182!) and went back upstairs. Once again I skipped the morning shower and just put on some clothes. (Not that I was naked in the first place, just not in a decent day outfit) I had no idea what I was going to do. Movies are always a good idea. But I decided to save my money and ideas for later. So I continued a book I found another day while browsing around the library. And for possible curious readers: It's a book called Mr.Wrong. There are a lot of like essays written by women who loved the wrong men or loved the right men for wrong reasons or at the wrong time.. I'm almost in the half way! And that means that it REALLY is good. Because usually I don't get very far. If I read some book twice, it's something special. (And there are few of them too!!)

I didn't wanna be too stuck at my bed, just reading..So I activated my new phone! Nokia Mirage 2605 or something. Nothing fancy. Just a normal prepaid phone. Luckily they had some NOKIAS! If there hadnt been any, I probably would have chosen to be phoneless. I still don't get it how some people don't have a phone. Or not just a phone, but A MOBILEPHONE. This morning I had 3 very well working mobilephones! And back home in F-land I have one more! I totally get it that some people think they are cool being "oh so different" living without a mobilephone. Okay I totally don't get it! It's just stupid. Sure, you are gonna stay that way: different. Oh and did I already so alone? Well, now I do. Those are going to drop out of normal circle of life, and social life to be more exact! But well, it's their choice I guess. Or maybe not, some people just can't afford it. Or can afford it, but don't need it so much that it would be a good idea to get one. Who are those people? Well, there are some.. I guess they don't spend so much time thinking about making friends or moving on in that circle. I guess moving on is really the thing people should do. Including me. I'm one of 'people'. I'm in that normal group/one of the many/ 0,000001%.
Hah. Anyways, I activated my phone and exited the house. I didnt really have a plan. (Like usually...) So I just took my purse and bag, sunglasses(the wrong ones dammit!), Mr.Wrong-book and my iPod. First stop was Rite Aid where I got some ice cream: rocky road and chocolate. Total: $1,69.

I walked pass McDonalds(that has been hard after the roadtrip..wonder why..) and suddenly decided to go to Target. I needed a new mascara anyways.. But just my luck: they were out of brown water-proof Maybeline. The one in a yellow bottle. I used to wear the one in black bottle/tube, but when they yellow claimed to be even better I changed. So there I was without my mascara and aching to buy something! Luckily I was thirsty so I grabbed a bottle of raspberry-flavored water. Okay and Harpers Bazaar. Finally. I was kinda afraid that I'd end up NOT buying it but I got it. There's Leighton Meester on the cover. I think she is good-looking. And her character in that Gossip Girl-series looks cute. (By the way, never watched that series! I've seen maybe one episode or part of an episode in Malaysia. But it was in CHINESE. So I'm not sure does it count. I think I need to see it though.. Maybe I'll buy the first season,finally, from WAL-MART. It's only $18..) I haven't read the magazine yet.. I think I'll read it tomorrow on my bed or at the pool. I got a little sunburned two days ago though, so I'm not so sure..

After Target I wanted to go home and drink the rasberry-water and read the Harpers Bazaar..But for some reason I went to BurgerKing! And bought a medium drink(half coca-cola and half diet coke). I drank half and then refilled. And went to BestBuy. Why? Well, I needed earphones. Like earplugs actually. Not like the old, customer-service girl-type ones.. But I didn't buy any. They cost like 20 bucks. The same ones that cost $9,99 at F.Y.E. I dreamt of buying some TV-series' boxes too. Like all the Sex and the City -DVDS! Oooh. Or The Big Bang Theory! Or How I met your mother! Or Friends! AAaaaw. But a bigger aaw was coming: NetBooks. Notebooks. Minilaptops. Whatever they are called! Someone! BUY ME ONE! I hated myself sooooooo much at that moment. They are like 300$!! And that's how much I spent on useless thing in a month I guess! Or maybe not. Anyways, I mean, that I should have saved some for this additional month here! But noo, oh noo.. Not Jonna. Not this time. Never. 'Dont worry Jonna, I know how to do this..' Hah! Fuck you..sorry,I mean: fuck Me. I could have skipped 'a few' shirts and DVDs and things and bought a new laptop/mini laptop.. After all, this laptop is 4yrs old and dying. I have most of my stuff on an external harddrive anyway! (Thanks to Anu and Dan for that!) And then I could put my laptop to a bigger bag and check it in! Going through the securities with a big laptop and maximum handluggage is what I call semi-hell. I had no money for the mini laptop at that moment, so I had to leave it there. All alone. Poor baby.
At home I took a shower. And just relaxed. In the evening I got more brownies!! Heart says OH YEAH and the brain says Okay maybe a little.

Dan wanted to watch football so I recorded Project Runway and Vampire Diaries(pilot). Later I watched the Project Runway's episode, but saved the Vampire one for later. Instead, I watched a movie: Definitely, maybe. Even the name SCREAMS 'Jonna', so I had to see it. And it was even more tempting after I noticed that there's Isla Fisher in it! And Ryan Reynolds! AND Rachel Weisz! I don't know why I like her so much..There's just some 'thing' I guess. Elizabeth Banks. Hmm.. She is funny. But something is missing from her that I'd admire or 'follow' her. The movie was very good. Not like 'movie critic's very good' but normal person's very good. Jonna's very good. The idea was VERY GOOD. I liked it. The execution was good. I would have twisted some things even more. And made it less kid-friendly. Like shown how Will tells Maya 'a kid friendly version' of some break-up or moment and then on the other side of the scream how it really went: which would be not suitable for Maya's ears or eyes.. There was something A LITTLE like in (500)days of Summer. And that must be the reason why I liked it too. And Isla Fisher. She is so good. Looks good. Acts good. I'm happy that they didn't waste time showing off Reynolds' body or something. It would have ruined it..Or not ruined. Distracted;)

By the way, it's funny that I hear that some people love or like my blog, but no one seems to comment. Still. Even tho I changed the setting that anyone can leave comments -.- Not just the ones with a Google-account. Maybe I should start to write some questions or write more provocatively! Accuse german speaking people for not speaking italian! Americans for not giving me a visa for 10yrs the say I entered this country! And laugh at the people who don't know who was my first big crush! Or trash the black people! Complain about unemployed people! And rich people! Maybe I really need to write a post where all I do is complain(not that it would be much change from the current direction of my so-called blog)!

Tomorrow I'm gonna try to post more about the roadtrip. More pics and details. I also need to post more "these are doomed"-pictures. Just to make myself feel like it's ok to throw them away. And to encourage myself to get rid of couple of things. I also need to read the magazine. And more of the book. I'll try to exercise too. (HAH!) I have no idea what kind of changes there has been in my body during the last year..
It's 1.30am now.. Great.

So I guess I'm off to brush my teeth and then tip-toe to the room and climb into my bed<3 And sleep<3 Aaaw. I'm gonna do plenty of that in F-land. Oh, and find a job.(I applied for one job, in the UK, but I guess it's not going to happen for me..)I'll get a real work. And get a lot of money. And buy that new laptop/minilaptop. So.. Wish me luck. And sweet dreams.
