I just switched from Firefox to Opera. I know it’s evil to the open source community, but sheesh… somehow I like this one better as my computer copes with it better. It has also all kinds of nifty widgets built in, such as notes. Really useful for me as I would forget doing things otherwise! (Firefox has widgets for that too, but I’m too lazy to be searching for each and one of them.) The only thing I am complaining about is the adblock system. Firefox has it’s own plug-ins which are awesome, but in Opera you have to do most of it manually. I really like the Opera Turbo, though, which makes the Internet run on computers with slower connections a bit faster.
Now for one of my favorite songs of all time.
This song just gives me the chicken pox. It’s so great! It made the movie “Paprika” a masterpiece in my opinion. The voices in the beginning, they sound so finnish somehow! Makes me think of Zen Cafe, a finnish band, which jumps out of the crowd with their singer’s voice. I’m not very much in to finnish music, but I found their song “Ihminen” somehow quite hilarious, even though it’s a very serious song. The finnish language is very beautiful, but hard to properly insert in songs as the words are quite long and complex. Props to everyone who can do that!
Aah, it feels so good almost being over the 40,000 word mark. The novel isn’t awesome, but… very epic. Big. Odd. Surreal! Sometimes it’s really boring to write about because it’s often very serious and shocking, I’d rather write about happy things. But as I read in a book about writing, you shouldn’t really choose from drama and comedy, but instead mix them in to a nice fluffy sauce which is enjoyable to read (I mean eat.).
Mmm… off to continue my lethargic, sluggy ways of killing time. (By not writing.)
Yes, just as the title suggests… my hamster ran away. While I wasn’t watching. She has certainly gotten smarter, she actually used the top floor door to fall through which didn’t hold too much against force to open. She also did it while I wasn’t watching and I was in a different room. I fear that she might be a reincarnation of some famous spy or ninja. Cherry the Ninja Hamster™, that’s a catchy name. Maybe I’ll make a whole toy brand out of it, with stickers and pvc and lots of cute happiness among collectors? Ohohohoh. Just like Hello Kitty.
But the thing that really wondered me was if it was somehow linked to a nightmare I had that night. I was in Finland at our cottage and saw my mom shoot burglars and/or thugs (2 of them), that had fallen over fences (my hamster has a big fence around her cage) and sat themselves down on tree stumps, with fiery arrows which made them burn to death. (I was playing Fable 2 when she emerged as lost, which is mostly about killing thugs with all means possible.) After that we went to our toilet and I saw my bunny somehow dig itself up as a cartoon mole next to me. My mom tried to catch him. He ran over the small blueberry field, my sibling noticed that (which he did this time too!), and over to the lake in which he jumped. He was rammed with a big boat which was remote controlled and ultimately made him die. It’s a good thing that didn’t actually happen in this case. Gee, I think I should sleep less. Cherry’s cage will have several lock-mechanisms on her cage from now on.
Word count has been rising, I’ve written over 25 thousand words! I feel so much more at ease. But really, Cherry scared me today. She actually inspired me to write somehow!
Gah, I’m so tired all my sentences have their words flipped all around the whatshouldIcallthisthingmajajigs. Should go sleep. Good night. (To this hamster and all future hamsters, don’t you dare running away from your cages! You really made me worry! Next time you might die on your adventurous adventures in a dangerous house! D:)
Oh my. I was just taking a break after we went to the shops and this commercial comes on the TV.
It contains some very popular Internet phenomenas and it made me laugh so much. (That certainly shows everyone how I’ve been wasting my life…) You stumble upon a lot of things while being on Youtube. No wonder the creators became so rich. Someone even made a version of the commercial and original videos side by side here! The last one is just perfect.
Back to writing… I’ve already typed over 100 words here. xD
Words go by so fast! This NaNoWriMo has been easier than the last one. I’ve got a good start, but now I feel that I’m getting a bit jammed with the story I’m writing, but I’ll just have to see where the characters take me.
I’ve soon written 1/5 of my novel and I hope to finish earlier this year. Last year was a stress party, but the whole work made me feel proud. The story wasn’t good and the draft was horrible, but, I made it on my first year of WriMo! 50.000 words is a lot for that amount of time in my opinion. I actually made it through a deadline! I hope I can do it again this year.
After this event, I’ll decorate my keyboard. I promised myself that as a reward. I’ll write NaNoWriMo 2009 on it with a permanent pen and add stickers! +__+ (In the future… it would be nice to show my keyboard to someone and tell them that I’ve written a novel with it.)
Now, to come up with new drama in the story and get some more words. Oh no… what have I been doing? I’ve written lots of words on WordPress, but only a few on my novel today…
I hope my Internet dies for a while so that I can peacefully keep writing without distractions. xD
Have some nice days, months and years! (And all other ways of naming time!)
My keyboard is going to go through some epic pain this November. My second NaNoWriMo! YAAAAAAAY!
But this means… I’m going to have something to do every day in November. Word counts, aah, those memories. Listening to music, writing carelessly… that’s something you can show up. Or not.
(I’m trying to brainwash you into participating.)
That also means that— I’m going to try put up this as painlessly as possibly… I might not be online as often. But certainly more than now!
Maan… 11 days… I have an idea for a plot. But I don’t know how it ends or what happens next… I’ve got to do an outline. A harsh one.
Oh yeah, happy birthday to me. ;___; 17… no more sweet 16! Just some melancholic and nostalgic 17. Will I ever grow up? xD
Aaaghagah. I’ve killed my online life. (Killing the online life = abandoning it painfully!) I’ve got to take one step at a time, remember my promises and breath deeply. Deeply. But first I want to… listen to music!
I like the song and the fact that it has subtitles. The video shows strong feelings. And, gee, that’s not even a real human singing. I’m sure many have heard of Hatsune Miku, the Vocaloid. (Being the singer also of this song. I never knew she could have such… strong, non-pitched voice.)
What have I done the last month? Err… I’ve been reading Tomopop. I know it isn’t good for the pockets, but I can always dream about having millions of commercialized characters on my shelves. My current super-wishes are the Death Note Petit figurines and the Vocaloid Petit figurines… they’re just so cute. Click on the images! I want those for my birthday! (Just kidding. That’d hurt the economy quite bad, but I can dream of holding a plastic painted figurine that looks just like an angelic relic in my hands. Sleeping next to them in bed, eating dinner with them, throwing them around, letting them play my DS, stand in front of my computer screen, jump on the scanner… yeah, that was a bit too much, huh?)
I’m home! One month of Finland and it went quite fast! But I really disliked the trip back, at least the part of driving in Stockholm… there were lots of old cars and their owners showing off and it took us an hour to get out of the city!
Apart from that, I’ve enjoyed summer. I got my first tan in ages, previous summers I’ve just been inside playing games, which hasn’t really contributed to a brownish skin.
On the ferry… a young lady had collapsed. A doctor was treating her… later on they sent her away with a helicopter. I hope she’s alright. It was a sad sight to see.
I’m tired. I want to sleep! I have lots to do before school begins!
I have no idea what is going on with me. I feel tired, my eyelids feel as heavy as milk packages and my legs are failing under me. Mom gave me a caffeine pill, but I’m still not feeling quite awake! I could faint or fall asleep any minute now.
I slept well this morning, I assure you. I even went shopping with mom today and borrowed some books from the library. I felt that I had some power during that trip. Bah, it’s already getting so dark. My electric fan keeps staring at me.
I have gifts to send to my friends, but I have no idea when to send them… as I’ll be going to Finland in about a week. Being there a month. I suppose I could send them from there… we’ll see how much fits in my bag(s).
-Later-
I just ate a delightful pizza and I feel rejuvenated. I think I was either a bit depressed, anxious or just hungry.
The Two Worlds game… it was awful. My computer couldn’t take it and died… almost. It was so graphics heavy (worse than Oblivion) and required me to have my computer in US time!
I must… do something. I’ve began a new painting. I hope it’s successful and finished soon!
It’s sunny and awfully hot outside. My room looked like it had been massacred yesterday. I hope my graphics tablet still works… it wasn’t stuffed in a nice place.
I was shopping yesterday and ordered stuff from sfbok.se the day before that.
Purchases yesterday:
Darwinia (PC)
Kiki’s delivery service (DVD)
Memoirs of a geisha (DVD)
I love Darwinia. It’s so different from other games. This game has strategy, action, shooters… in one. It circles around a lifeform called Darwinians living in a scientist’s computer, whom had recently been attacked by viruses. You randomly pop in to the computer network and help the Darwinians survive. By playing the game it feels almost like driving an entirely different operating system.
When I’m older and have my own website, income etc… I think I’ll begin to hold contests. (Where you can win my awfully horrible games. I bet no one would buy them and I don’t feel like throwing them in the trashbin either.)
I still have games I haven’t even tried… like Two Worlds.
