How it is possible....

....that a human being sleeps poorly two nights in a row (less than 6 hours and less than 4 hours) and still now when night is nearing, I do not feel even a bit sleepy?
   I am going to die tomorrow.

Snow, dancing/singing stuffed animals and some chocolate

Picture is not from Joutseno
Now it is official: winter has come even to Joutseno. It looks like someone had sprinkled icing sugar onto everything. And. It. Is. Freezing.
Mmmm... chocolate....
   And because Halloween will be here soon I and some of my friends decided to walk to the town center to do some shopping for the Halloween party tomorrow.  And because shopkeepers do not realise that there is still two months till Christmas, we found lots of all kinds of Christmas stuff like stuffed dogs and frogs, which sign loudly Christmas songs and do hilarious dancies.
   And now it is The Chocolate Time!

Kiwi and western

Today I experienced two things for the very first time:
   1. I watched my first western with out giving up after ten minutes. If you have not seen John Ford's The Searchers, I strongly recommend it. You do not know what you are missing. It is GOOOOOOD.
   2. I found out a new number one for my list of things one should not forget into one's back. The list is 5. an apple, 4. 30 euros, 3. mandarin orange, 2. frozen blueberries and (fanfares) kiwi fruit!

What a.....?

My ah-so-perfect-copy of the screen
Winter and dark evenings are coming, so I decided to google some intructions of usage of the pedestrian safety reflector. One of the firsts results was link to Liikenneturva's website (Liikenneturva is an organisation, which try to improve safety of traffic in Finland). So I thought 'there should be some proper information. I click the link and wait. And wait. And suddenly the screen goes black and two light green bars start to circle aroung the middle section of the screen. It do just that: around and around. It has been spinning now more than 15 minutes and only difference is that the bars are possible little thicker than in the beginning. Gosh, I can wait to see what happen next!

Sea shells and moon cakes

Yee, tongue twisters!
Try to say:
Which witch wished which wicked whish. (Looks funny, doesn't it?)

Let's take another one:
Sally is a sheet slitter, she slits sheets. (That's an easy one)

Let's try a longer one:
Seven sleazy shysters in sharkskin suits sold sheared sealskins to seasick sailors.

And another longer one:
Sarah, Sarah, sits in her Chevrolet. When she shifts she sips her Schlitz,and when she sips her Schlitz she shifts.

And the last but not least, old classic:
She sells seashells by the seashore. The shells she sells are surely seashells. So if she sells shells on the seashore, I'm sure she sells seashore shells.

NB: one mooncke contain ca. 1000 cal



And after trying all this you can reward yourself with a Chinese mooncake.
