Having so much work that you don't have time to use the computer. *hides*

The really scary high winds that are making it dangerous to go out today...

...causing class to be cancelled.

I assign to Orthanc....

potty humor, grosser than gross jokes, the dhiarria (cha-cha-cha) song etc.-It still cracks me up!! I'm 35 next month and a mom so I should be mature about these things.

another secret (well, not now) love is the smell of coffee and freshly lit cigarette. This is significant because both are against the doctrines of my religion and while I practice it, I can't help but to smell.

I love "supposed to hate music" like John Denver, Barry Manilow, Kenny Rogers

I assign to Orthanc those great discussion threads that I'd love to participate in, but they're active during those weeks when I don't have the leisure for them. cough*MicrophonesinMiddle-earth*cough*CbC*othergoodstuffonBooks*cough*Entish BowRPG*

I assign the idea of a film you have been making for a long while going to be distributed in Paris from tomorrow onwards. The idea is very intriguing but the bad part is, I will not be in Paris to see it.

There's a Finnish theme week in Paris now. There is a square where all sorts of young Finnish artists and designers and such are presenting their things. The city of Helsinki made a request for a few upper secondary schools, including mine, to make short films that somehow relate to Helsinki.

I took part in our school's film project (I was a camera(wo)man and did loads of editing and some of the script). Unfortunately since the trip to Paris to present the films was paid by the state of Finland, they could take only five people from each school in order to keep the expences tolerable. Our group had thirteen participants, I think, and all of them had done their share really well, so the ones who got to Paris were chosen by the amount of extra work they had done. They (the two teachers responsible for our school's film) managed to choose four quite easily, but the fifth was a choice between me and one other. Since they couldn't make up their minds on which one they'd pick, they decided by lot. Knowing my luck, the result was no big surprise..
