Forgive me

How hard can it be to put pen on paper? Or in this case, tap the phones screen for a few minutes.. Yet here we are. A week since my last update. Even longer than a week. Holy shit.

The sun is shining and most of the snow is gone. It's summery weather all around and I think it's time to put on summer shoes and a skirt. Or maybe not a skirt.. England, the rainiest country in the world, has had such a nice and sunny weather that they've got sunburnt. Good for them. I don't think we're far behind.

Today I'll be going to Kälviä to visit my sister. I haven't seen her for a few days. I got them a frying pan. She was cooking stakes on a wok pan. I think she needs a real frying pan. It's like a house-warming gift.

I've got a confession to make. I checked out the newly updated Samsung Apps and downloaded Sims. I know what you are thinking.. But I don't play games anymore and thought I'd test this one out.

That picture up there, the one of a Angry Birds can of pop.. What the hell. I had to get them! They tasted like any other pop. But I guess they want to make as much money out of Angry Birds as possible.

What a long day

This has been a very long day. First, the drive. We started at 7 am and drove for 3 hours. We stopped a few times but the only thing on my mind was the pain in my knees. It wasn't a big car, but not a small one either. The problem was the driver. He wasn't short, which meant my knees were up in my ears. Hmm. Anyway, we got here in time to have lunch.

After some salad, the training started. A few hours in, and I started feeling the early morning.. But the show must go on and so it did. We had a quick break every few hours and some food and then finally we were done. It was very interesting and I'm glad I got to come. I learned a lot and I'm fairly sure this will help me in my job.

Today was about customer service and how to make it even better all around, and tomorrow will be about the machinery aka the phones. There's probably not a lot about the phones we don't already know, but you can always learn more. It will be awesome! This is the attitude I'm harvesting.

It'll be a long day and then there's the drive back home. Maybe a few beers to calm me down? I really think I would fall asleep if I drank anything with alcohol right now and I'd be twice as tired tomorrow morning.

I've taken pictures (4 frames maybe) of the inside of the cabbin (house) us girls are staying at, but they're on the camera so I'll put them on some other day. How many pictures have I promised to put on the blog now? A hundred? I swear I'll put them on.. Some day..

I've got a hangover...

That song sounds good all the way to the point about wanting more. I really don't want to drink any more. Never again. Never ever. Until we go out with E. That'll be mad! We'll get even drunker than last night, if possible.

I remember most of the night.. Not everything though. There are some blanks in my memory, but I'm quite sure about not making a fool of myself.. I had a really nice time, especially when J and J came down to the party. Had a blast!

We played a drinking game. I had a constant flow of beer running down my throat. When someone pulled out a seven from the deck and the last person with their hand in the air had to drink, I put my hands down to the floor to make sure I got to drink. I thought a drinking game was about drinking? So I was a bit drunk after the game. It was a lot of fun and I really can't wait til next year!!

St. Patrick's Day


Happy, Happy, Happy St. Patrick's Day! What a glorious day for the Irish. It's a very good day for the rest of us, who get to party with the Irish. I checked Wikipedia for the history of St. Patrick's Day, and there's a few things I learned; Originally, the colour associated with Saint Patrick was blue, but then people gradually started wearing green, and it became the associated colour of St. Patrick's Day. It's a religious holiday but nowadays it's more like a national day for Ireland. St. Patrick's Day is celebrated all around the world; countries like Argentina, New Zealand, Canada and Australia (even Japan (!) among many other countries) celebrate this particular holiday. Today, St. Patrick's Day is probably the most widely celebrated saint's day in the world.

Tonight, I will join the celebration. Woohoo!

Appreciation


I had a customer, of the older generation, today. She had just made binding contracts with another company. So from the get-go I knew, she wasn't going to make any new contracts with me.. She said she couldn't make the Internet Stick work, and that she had been to the Shop where they gave her the stick, but they had refused to help her. We've heard these kind of stories before, and they usually always happen at this same shop. I didn't have any other customers at that moment, so I decided I'd help her. It took something like 40 minutes all together, to get her computer and the Stick working, but in the end it worked fine. She was so happy with me and the service (since I was doing the other companys job helping her) that she wanted to give me money. Well that service didn't cost anything, so I turned down the offer. But she insisted on it, and at the end of it all, I was stood here with a 20 euro bill in my hand. It's nice to know people appreciate you or/and the work you do, even if it doesn't seem like much. Thank You.

Big Questions.

Today is a day of Big Questions. My head is full of (stupid, I admit) questions like, why are vampires more flammable than humans? In every vampire program or book, they always make that point clear; vampires can catch on fire more easily than humans.. Ok, in Vampire Diaries, it's not like that. They roam around fire every now and then without a care in the world, which pulls the carpet right from underneath my point. But, in True Blood and Twilight, vampires avoid fire. And as I'm writing this; I've come to realize, that I haven't really explored other vampire stories, just these three. Should start reading more books; books that I'm not familiar with. The other Questions are way less sane.. Could there really be zombies? I understand how insane that sounds (sorry about that) and I think I've wrote something about it before, but I'm yet to find an answer. There are other Questions on my mind right now, but after revealing these two, I don't think you could handle the rest.


I am one unhappy gal today. Something incredible has happened. It is snowing. Why!? You, who are smarter than me, tell me why this has to happen? A lot of the snow had melted and gone away for good, (until next Winter, hardly for good) and now it's coming back?! I mean, COME ON! Where is the sunshine? Actually, fuck the sun(!), where is the rain? That would wash away the remains and reminders of Winter. Tough luck.


We need someone to replace A for the summer. We had a meeting in work yesterday, after the day was finished, and J said we need someone to start as soon as possible. So now we're hoping they'd find someone to start next month. Actually, J said he's hoping for someone to come in next week.. I'm just not sure they'll find someone that quick.. Even though I've got someone in mind, Perfect for the job, they have to go through the process of interviews and what-not. We'll see what happens. 

It doesn't seem like it's going to be a busy day. I might be wrong. And here's to hoping!

Back on Track.


Did my exercise. I enjoyed it as well. But only a little bit. After a while I remembered how I don't like exercise. But I will keep it up now and finish strong. I've got to reach my goal before the height of summer, or I've completely let myself down, and that is not something I accept.

Had a shower and read through the junk mail. B went to the dentist today. Everythings fine; they'll take out his wisdom teeth. Good. I should get mine taken out. The two I still have left. I ate this lovely meal B made me. Chicken with vietnamese wok veg and cashew nuts. A little bit of low fat cooking cream (ok, I'll admit; the whole 2dl packet) and seasoned with mango curry powder. It was, excuse me my french, fucking awesome. I had it yesterday (took a picture, but it's still on the camera) and today, and I'll have it again tomorrow. Fuck yeah.



Watched a movie last night. It was really good. I wasn't sure if it was going to be any good, but it turns out, it was absolutely superbly done. I truly recommend this movie for everyone to see. OK, not for anyone; Mom, don't watch it! It's scary and you'll never sleep again.

Btw. I also took pictures of all the pretty little things they sell in this pretty little shop at Chydenia. E started working there a week or so ago(?) and I just had to use that opportunity to go in and take some pictures. The point of this story is; I decided to dedicate a post for the pics and stuff.. So that is going on my list.

1) Pictures I've taken with the new camera and the experiences I've had trying to take a passable photo.

2) Put up the pictures I took at Blossom.

3) Plan the trip to England and then blog about it. It would be so cool to be creative and/or energetic enough, to really make it good, but it might not be that fancy I'm afraid.

 That is it for now. Until tomorrow.
