Summer 2

The month is already in half. Woah, time really flies.

I miss my viking, he's still visiting home. And next weekend is Desucon! YAYY!=D Me and my friends have a table at the artists alley, though I don't know if we'll really sell anything. Last year we didn't make that much profit. Also, we made illustrations for our friends, the sisters Cilla, Nita & Myy's panel about yaoi. I'll show my pic here when the con is over. I want it to be a surprise there. ^_^

Here are some photos from my graduation party from 2.6.2011, I finally got them from my brother. ^_^
Me, ready to greet the guests. ^_^
Drinkies. Yumyum!
Foodies, yumyum!
Showing my dress. I love it! :D

Sailing

We had a great and very relaxing time at the Helsinki-Stockholm cruise with mom. When I got home, my viking came to visit and stayed for two days. ♥ On Thursday morning he went back home and I had to get ready for my graduation party. And it was wonderful. I loved seeing my whole family together, all the kids playing together and my friend Taina visited too with her son. ^_^ we had great food and nice conversations, I stayed there until midnight.

And I got a digital-system-camera as a graduation present! OMG I am so so happy! I took over 100 photos during the night but I can't get them on my laptop yet because I don't have a card-reader on it, LOL. But my brother promised to give me his old one. Yay!
On the way to Stockholm. 
In Stockholm, old town.
In Stockholm. Pirdy ;D
Old town, the beautiful houses. In the center is the "Chokladkoppe" cafe
where me and Ktriraam always visit when we're in Stockholm. ^_^
Back at the ship, very hungry and very very thirsty! Yum yum! :D

The "dead island" where the birds living on it have killed all the vegetation. It's creepily cool!
On our way back to Helsinki. The night was beauuutiful. ^_^

This has been an incredibly good week. After the party I've just spent two days relaxing and gathering my strength. It's been fun and really tiring. Haha. ^_^ I can't believe it's June already. In a few weeks I am attending in Desucon and after that it's the midsummer. And Helsinki Gay pride follows. This is going to be a wonderful summer. ♥

Yippiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!

This morning I woke up at 9 pm to a text message from mom: my name was in the newspaper at the "graduated" section. Now it's official, 7 years of college is finally over. Thank goodness!

This was a good morning in other ways too. I woke up next to my viking and woke him up by kissing and cuddling him. He always tries to stop me and shove me away playfully and I attack him and kiss him more and try to get my head somewhere close to his face or neck. It's a perfect way to wake up. ^_^

Mom bought me a new dress and some jewellery, pantihose and stuff for my graduation party with my family next week. I wanted a small party but our "little" family has grown so much in a few years that now there are 25 people coming to celebrate. Hahaha. Still, cannot wait to see all of them though I don't really want to be the center of attention, hiiih. ^___^

Almost summer

Two days and I get my graduation papers out from school and never have to return there.
Two days from then I am going on a cruise with my mom, Helsinki-Stockholm, I cannot wait. We have reserved the buffet dinners both ways and breakfast too. And I get to go to the huge bookstore Science-fiction bokhandeln in Stockholm.
Two days from the trip I have my graduation party with my family. We just reserved the caked from a bakery and dad is buying all the drinks. It's gonna be fun.

And life is rather busy again. =) Tomorrow I get to see my viking, today I met my new psychiatrist and she was really great and gave me a lot of advices for the summer and getting a job. I am hopeful and feeling positive. ^_^

I promised photos from our trip to the nature reserve area, so here are a few:

The Erakkomurju Lean-to (laavu) from the inside)
The view from the cliff where the lean-to and fireplace were.
The sky from the fireplace.
My brother and the view to the lake and the peer (and boat we arrived with).
We made loimu-lohta/smoked salmon. YUM!
The beautiful fire. ♥
This is where we left with the boat when we rowed across the lake to the cabin. Beautiful!

Engineer!

The rest of it went to quickly that it still feels unreal. I graduated!

I got the rest of my math exercises done on Monday and Tuesday, I worked like a madwoman, haha! I wrote email to my teachers telling them that I will return them on Wednesday and got a reply from my professor in the middle of the night that I should go to the office and take care of the graduation things too, check the points and that sort of stuff.

I couldn't sleep at night and woke up at 7, I was so anxious. I walked to the school as soon as it was 8 am. I returned the math exercises, printed out a form that you need to return to the office when you want to graduate and checked the student points with the office staff.

When I got home, I got an email from my math teacher that I've received my last missing student points from the math course and so was graduated. Tadah. Just like that. I'm done. 7 years of work behind. Blood, sweat and tears. Sickness, one nervous breakdown and a lot of depression, fun parties, meeting absolutely wonderful people and lot of sleepless nights studying and worrying.

So now I have a fresh bachelors degree on Visualization engineering, which means I'm a Media Technology Engineer. Yayyyh!
I've been studying for 25 years without a stop so I think I'm gonna do something else for a change, haha! XDD I want to find a job that wont make me have a new nervous breakdown and that I don't have to worry about constantly. Something that I don't hate. But that can wait until summer.

Now it's time to relax, rest and party! =D

Spring 3

Today has been a good day. I've done some school stuff, the last of school stuffs I have. And I got two difficult math exercises done... now I've done 5/10 and I still have over half of the time left. When I return these assignments next week, I have everything done. I'm ready!

I went to buy some foods and drinks today for tomorrow's Vappu day (a big spring celebration in Finland) and bought a six-back of long drinks (4,7 % alcohol), which should have cost over 10 €'s. The cashier made some sort of mistake, because I got the six-back with 1,83 €! WOAH! =D

If I ever get a car (which I doubt because I don't need one), I want one like this. Well, coloured like this, but something smaller. ;P

I went to the movies yesterday with my Viking. Our first movie date ever, because he doesn't really like going to movies. We went to see Howl and both really really liked it. It was perfectly psychedelic and homoerotic. And James Franco was awesome, of course. ^_^

Spring 1

The sun is shining outside and I feel awake. I was going to take it easy today and just relax, but then last night my stepmom called me and asked me to go and check if they left the coffeemaker on last night... so no rest for me. =P On the other hand it's so beautiful outside that I want to go out for a walk anyways.

We're going to see Sonata Arctica tonight on a concert, but for some reason I don't feel like it at all. I love the band, but I just don't feel like hanging out with drunken loud finns who cannot stop screaming and yelling, I want some peace and quiet.

Yesterday I failed my math exam. Which was expected. Now I'm just waiting for the teacher to arrange me the next exam. So I can graduate. It's all that's standing between me and the graduation. I am actually gonna be an engineer, me? HAHA! XD ...This of course also means I'm gonna have a party soon too, wheeee!
