The drive home last night was terribly long. Like over three hours. My brother usually does the trip with two hours and twenty minutes. Yes, I have timed us. But yesterday while we were driving, there was a snow storm and it had been snowing for practically the entire day and visibility was shit and the roads weren't properly cleaned and just endless endless rows of cars. So no surprise really, that it took us this long.

I napped, for the better part of the drive, since I had taken a Paracetamol before the trip and was just feeling horrible. So it wasn't really that long for me. My brother was pretty irritated, though, by the time we got home. He gets like that, when he can't properly drive with 110 km/h. My brother drives with that speed in practically any kind of weather, so yeah.

I am feeling a little better, of course I always feel better at home. Due to only eating dinner last night and going straight to bed, I didn't realize last night that mom and dad had already cleaned the house on Friday. We usually clean the house on Saturdays, but I'm really glad they already did it, because that means I can stay in bed for the rest of the day and just get better. And try catching up with my Nanowrimo.

Also, on a fandomy note. I don't get why all the White Collar fans are hating on Kate. Because she interferes with your precious Peter/Neil. I don't get it. I mean, I love Peter/Neil as much as anyone, but isn't Kate like Neil's one true love? The driving force behind everything he does? He wouldn't be Neil, if we couldn't, at least to some degree, define him through his love for Kate. Also, it's hypocritical like whoa to hate Kate and be heads over heels with Elizabeth. I love Elizabeth, she's awesome, but technically she's getting in the way of your precious slash just as well, I mean hello, she's Peter's wife. And I like Kate. Even though we haven't practically seen her. I bet she's fierce.

And tomorrow is Father's Day, but since I've been sick for the better part of this week and haven't had time to get my father anything and it's most likely that I won't be baking him a cake either, I decided to give him my Chelsea FC 2010 calendar, that arrived this morning. He's doesn't really know them, but it's something, right? I probably wouldn't have any place to hang it at the dormitory anyway. D: And I'm sure my dad will appreciate it.

If you had asked me this morning, what I would be doing tonight, I would have told you writing or studying. Definitely not being in Tallinn and drying the entire content of my bag, my clothes, bedclothes and school materials, with a blowdryer. FML

This makes me sad beyond belief.

On another note, I am sitting in a lecture, being bored. Later will hopefully go and pick up my German textbook and workbook and then perhaps, idk, go check out the new Solaris centre. 

And then I sort of want to watch HP6 in the evening, if I have any time left over from today's tv shows. Gotta come up with something for tomorrow's love picspam.

It's 6pm on a Saturday evening.

Mom's still at work.

Dad's running some errands in the city and then he's going to check out some things at work as well.

I have cleaned the entire house on my own.

And now I'm eating still warm cake that grandmother sent me and going to start reading my book.

The weather outside is cold.

My day in a nutshell.

Today I got my hair cut and coloured darker. Also went to Valga with hundva . Bought stuff!
Now I think I've caught a cold, so it's a hot Coldrex and off to bed for me!

Fell asleep around 6am last night, this morning around 11, our neighbour starts taking apart an old clunker in his backyard with a metal saw or something. And his backyard is facing my window.

There was more than a small amount of noise produced by that action, so even when I closed my window, it didn't really help. And since I was too lazy to climb all the way to the third floor where there was a lovely made up bed, I just fell on the too short couch in the living room, because it had a blanket and a pillow and hey, I don't need much. Woke up like half an hour ago.

Watching a southern India cooking show on National Geographic now. Mayble I'll have some instant noodles for breakfast. And coffee.

The parents are probably going to come home today. Will make muffins for them. Probs.

Tonight I wanted to write fic and watch Kamen Rider, but I'm too drunk to do either, so instead I'll go to bed. Busy day tomorrow~!

Yesterday I was involved in a bit of a car scraping, due to my own idiocy of course. The other car was hundva's, but it's totally fine. Ours, on the other hand, has a long and ugly (if I do say so myself) graze on the front bumper.

My parents handled it.. amazingly well.

So today me and dad went to the car service, or idk how it's called in English, the place you get your car serviced at, to get the insurance stuff out of the way. They told us that the entire front bumper will have to be repainted. Oh joy. I'll have to pay my dad 2000 kroons, which is about idk 182 dollars? That's about half the money that it's actually going to take, but the rest of it will be taken ccare of by the insurance.


On the way back from Tartu, we picked up two hitchhikers who were going to the Folk Festival in Viljandi. One of them noticed the post-it note that I had stuck next to the cd player that said "Every heart is a revolutinary cell." He asked me to explain it and where I had gotten it from and you know, they both seemed to be genuinely nice and lovely people.


Also, I'm almost finished with Remarque's "All quiet on the Western front". I dread the ending. Well, there's really no reason to, since I've already read the end (because I hate surprises), but still. I am not looking forward to seeing my favourite character die. Again. Curse you Remarque! Curse you Camus! Really, why do I read books like that if I don't like sad endings? I should just stick to fantasy books and romance novels or something. Ooooh but I love the good writing. I love it so badly, it sort of makes up foor the heartbreak.

Do you know the difference between checkers and Russian checkers?

I've been obsessed with checkers lately. Mainly because it's the only game on my new cell phone. Actually I'm pleased, it definitely beats the Sudoku on my old phone. Plus, you know, I also like checkers. Probably more than I like chess, although I can play both. But the last couple of days I've been single-mindedly trying to reach the Grand Master title. Which I did today, during work (the kids were sleeping already, so it's not like I'm neglecting any of my duties). So I'm beyond pleased now. But also a little disappointed, because it took me what, a week? Where's the challenge in that? D:

So who of you guys has Twitter?

Cause yes, I hate to admit it, but I have joined the madness.

St. Triinu!
♥

So. Yeah. My mum's cell phone broke. And right now is a really busy time for my mum, because she's organizing her high school reunion and this is, quite possibly, the busiest time of the summer for her right now. So I gave her my phone. Because she obviously needs it more than I do. And now I have an excuse to start looking for a new phone myself.

After giving my mum my cell phone, I realized that I had deleted all the old standard background pictures, the flowers and tourist spots and things. Same with the ring tones. So now my mum's cell phone background is a photo of one of our cats and her ring tone is Darling by V6. Yeah, my mum picked a ring tone in Japanese. Awesome.

But all this still leaves me with no phone. Sad.

* read a book ("The Plague" by Camus)
* walked some children (15 of them)
* ate a leftover banana (because children are sometimes whimsical)
* made a new friend (my new co-worker is awesome)
* climbed a tree (wild cherries are epically tasty)
* worked on a fanmix (because that's easier that expressing your ideas through a fanfic)

and now i'm going to take a nap, because i had the morning shift today

Today was a really hard day at work. It's very emotionally and physically tiring and now I've got a headache.

Me and hundva are going to Tallinn tomorrow for the weekend.

I'm lying on the roof, a sheepskin rug under my back so the tiles wouldn't poke me, the air smells like summer and freshness and I'm listening to awesome music while lazily working on a fic.

This is the life, people.

The heat is killing me. It feels like the middle of summer! Driving the car without all of the windows rolled down would be torture. Seriously. The heat, it's mind boggling. And I have to take the bus to Tallinn tonight. Oy fucking vey.

I want this university stuff to end already so I could just laze around at home and sunbath or sleep or write fic or do nothing.

TWO MORE WEEKS, PEOPLE. I CAN DO THIS. EASY AS YOU LIKE.

* It's been just one of those amazingly horrible weeks.

* It's lovely seeing little boys at the store buying cake ingredients and tough pierced guys in leather jackets walking out of flower shops with tulips on the day before Mother's Day.

* The US version of Life on Mars is completely rubbish, in my opinion.

* John Simm is ridiculously adorable.

* Ashes to Ashes < Life on Mars

* Started learning how to take corners with the handbreak today.

* tired

* wrist is hurting

* drunk

* need to clean up my room, otherwise I have no place to sleep

* want to watch America's Next Top Model

* some Russian girl in room 301 is having sex, and by the sound of it she's enjoying it

* Tallinn at night is beautiful

* I love my friends

* I love Estonia

I hate this shit weather and the stuff that comes down from the sky and doesn't know if it's rain or snow.
NOT ONCE have I been able to go out and not get my feet wet. Disgusting.

But damn if it doesn't make it easy to slide around on country roads with our car.

Also, I asked my dad to bring me chocolate from the store. Did you know what he got me?

Cabbage.

Cabbage instead of chocolate, I am not fucking amused.

I'm just irritated for various reasons today. Being home often makes me like this.

However, today I had a massage, and it was glorious.

I GOT A HAIRCUT!
FINALLY!

My hairdresser's reaction when I walked in?
My god, how long your hair is!

And indeed, long it was. I last cut my hair in.. August. Yes, AUGUST.

But now it's short again! And a bit blond!

I'm a bit meh about it right now, but my hairdresser has never disappointed me, so I'm sure I'll end up loving the haircut. It's just that I'm not used to it at the moment.


On another note, my mother promised that she would watch Elisabeth with me today. It amuses me, since I don't believe my mom's German is that good. But we'll see. ♥

Magasin sisse täna.

Flistist loen, et ma polnud vist ainuke. ♥

Hommikusöögiks tegin mingisuguseid võileibu ning kõrvale võtsin kirsstomateid, mis eilsest mozzarellaõhtusöögist üle oli jäänud.

Ei tea, kuidagi loid ja unine on olla. Praegu tõmban endale paar vana Gokusen 3'e osa, et ilusaid mehi vaadata ja siis kerin tagasi oma ühikatuppa ja teki alla.
