Halloween 2007

Hello everyone,
well I know, I haven't posted the photographs from the halloween-party I had this year (unfortunately it was just me and Bob out there, but we had a great time anyway :-)..).
The party was alright, but maybe not so much of a party as one might think, since we just ate food and snacks and watched a few films (mostly monster classics, such as "Frankenstein's monster", "Creature from the black lagoon", "Dracula" and so forth.).
I think we both (me and Bob) can agree that "The Phantom of the Opera" was the best film.

Oh, and for next year, I must make sure to get the invitations out earlier, otherwise it'll probably just be me and Bob again...

It's a little bit of ditt...

...and a little bit of datt.
Well, I don't know what to write, I'm actually very concerned about me not learning enough to truly understand UML (Unified Modelling Language) but I truly hope that I will understand it fully soon. I will try my best to do some studies this evening as well as tomorrow, and I'll probably visit a catholic bookstore tomorrow as well, to drive away demons and so with the power of the cross, hehe..

...and here's also a picture of me, free of charge, hehe (as always then XD).

Well, I also hope that this weekend will be quite free from homework, so I and Bob can have a jolly time playing videogames, watching some films (I hope to see "Chicken Little" again) and so forth.

New "manga" drawing!

Well, I know, I haven't been drawing for a long while now, but I did draw this during the october month and finished it all off today.

It's supposed to be about when Jesus comes back to earth, and we all get judged.

Another day...

Well, here goes, what can I say?
I have celebrated my father's birthday (although it was last week) today, and I have ordered a new harddrive for the computer back home (where I live with my grandparents) and new RAM for my laptop. I truly hope that everything will work out fine with these technical things.

I have celebrated Halloween, but unfortunately it was "only" my friend Bob who came and visited, but next year I truly have to be prepared earlier so more people can come.

I also foun a prayer before logging on to the Internet, which I have printed out and that is taped to my laptop, and was taped to the family computer as well until a few minutes ago when my fathersaid that he refused to have a such a thing where he could see it.

So I guess it will take a long time before I'll save dad.

I will pray for his salvation right away though.

May God be with us all.

Pax et Bonum.

Hallooween!

Well, soon it is this time at the year when it's okay for a guy to wear make-up.
I am, of course, referring to the celebrations of Halloween.
I will celebrate it with my grandparents, maybe my sister as well, and my friend Bob.
We will probably watch some horror films since there is a lot of that stuff on the telly, but I also have a collection of all the classics, which I bought on the Helsinki-cruise with my classmates.

Anyway, for those wondering about my examination(s), I think that it went better than I had expected. I don't know how well I got on the ITO (IT in Organisations) but in ITP (IT for Personal use) I got C (the grading system is similar to the American grading system).

Have a spooooky Hallooween!

Examination tomorrow...

Well, since I haven't written here for quite a while, I thought that I'd should take the oppurtunity to do it now, altough I don't really have the time to do so.
Well, I've been trying to study as well as I've been able to, for almost all of this week, and of course, I did try to study as well as I could the week before that, and the week before that...

I truly need to organize my life a bit...
Well, I also got in contact with a bloke from Opus Dei here in Sweden, and since I'm interested in joining it, we've had som interesting discussions I think.

By the way, some information about my day so far;
I got up at about 09:40.
I have eaten a bowl of sour milk with a sliced banana, and "Oatmeal Squares", or in plain Swedish, "Havre Fras".
I have eaten two sandwiches with Nutella.
I am now sitting and trying to study for tomorrow's examination.

Concentration partly accomplished

Well, yesterday I "at least" worked from 16:00 to about 23:00 on our project.
It was very nice to know that one did something very good for the group, and I think that I will, as a consequence, grow as a human being by being more involved in more sincere things, whatever it might be.

Right now, I would like to send my prayers to the PiS (Prawo i Sprawiedliwość, or simply Law and Justice in English) political party in Poland.
They are on the right track, fighting for the values of the Bible, and I wish you all luck in building a true strong and conservative society.

Concentration

Well, one of the things I hate about myself is my inability to concentrate on one task at a time sometimes. Yesterday I managed to do some work for school on the computer, but it took far too much time, since I found myself chatting and surfing around at websites that I shouldn't read, since I do not have that sort of time. There's only about a week left before the big test about IT in Organisations now..

I like me...

EDIT: Sorry, I should have written "to list seven things that I like about myself"
Apparently, Ivar has tagged me and "forced" me to do this silly thing - to list all things that I like about myself (argh!).

Well, I better start right now;

1. I like that I am not afraid to change my views when I am wrong.
2. I like that I won't back down when I know I'm right.
3. I like that I have found the Truth.
4. I like that I am trying to love people, no matter how they are.
5. I like that I am studying computer- and systems science at the university.
6. I like that I am able to enjoy the nature.
7. I like that I am interested in politics.

Well, then it's my turn to "force" some people to write what they like about themselves :-P
I tag Bob and Joakim.

Gmail: another extra megabyte every 11th minute?

Well, I've noticed that Google has increased the speed in which they increase my Gmail account's available memory. Google now gives me another megabyte about every 11th minute or so, which means about 130 or so extra megabyte per day (24 hours).

Well, that's very good news, I think, but what about increasing my Picasaweb album instead, so I don't have to worry about posting to many pictures here on Blogger? :-P

But thank you anyway Google ;-)
Having lots of memory in my inbox is always nice, altough AOL and Yahoo is offering unlimited storage now...

Another day in paradise, eh?

Well, today I've been to Church, but I have also been able to clear up some space on my PC, so now I have the very exhilarating enormous number of megabytes that are free to use up at about 700...
No, that's not much at all, I know.
But it's enough so some programs will run without any trouble and so forth, but it took some hard work, and I'm glad that I don't have to go through all the hassle to change hard drive (plus the fact that a new one will cost about 50 euros...) and install Windows XP (my Nintendo wi-fi usb-thingie doesn't work with Vista..) and all other things related to it.
...and thinking about it, I'd much rather have a new PC, since this old one can't run some programs very well that I'd like to try out more (Joost for example).

Sometimes I truly wonder what lies ahead for me.
Things were much easier in upper secondary school.

(I took the photograph 10Th June 2007)

The test

Well, as you might have understood from the previous post, today was the big D-day.
Or Judgement Day.
I had my knowledge tested to the limits by an incredible test, by the prophets of my course, "Information Technology for Private usage" (freely translated) - ITP that is.

Well, the test did turn out not to be such a huge challenge as I was afraid that it would be.
But some questions were a little bit more tricky than the other ones, and I'm afraid that might be the difference for me to get a Fx (almost the worst grade, F is worse though) or an A or B (the best grade is, of course, A)...

So, well, what other things has happened today?
Not that much actually, I ate my lunch while on the train (two sandwiches) and after the test I went back to my municipality and had a great Friday-dinner at a Chinese restaurant :-D.
This evening we've also seen the film "Wild Hogs", which I liked watching very much.
It seems to lack a little bit of that "edge" that I find in comedy films by Jim Carrey for example.
But it was worth seeing, and my grandpa seemed to like it as well (I'm not sure about my grandmother, she haven't seemed to be that glad at all this evening..).

For example...

...I've tried to learn the Fetch/Execute cycle (Instruction Fetch (IF), Instruction Decode (ID), Data Fetch (DF), Instruction Execution (EX) and Result Return (RR)), CMYK (Cyan Magenta Yellow Key), ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit, a subsystem of a computer that performs the operations of an instruction.), TCP ("connection oriented" - Transmission Control Protocol), IP ("forwarding" and "best effort"), UDP ("connectionless"), Ray Kurzweil (inventor of the first OCR (Optical Character Recognition) unit for the benefit of blind people.

This was just an example of things I have to remember for tomorrow's test...

Test tomorrow...

Well, I am very, very nervous, since this will be my first test ever during my University studies.
I truly hope that I have overestimated the task, and that the questions won't be so difficult as I do imagine them to be, but I'm quite sure that my wish won't come true.
There is quite an impossibility to learn the whole book, consisting of about 800 pages, plus all notes from lectures, and the material from the lecturers, as well as other material that the lecturers have referred to..

Well, good night, and I may only hope that I will have the power to do well on tomorrow's test.

More specific nerd-test

Well, I found a more specific nerd-test at Ivar's blog, and thought I'd publish the results.



As you see, I'm not near the results of Mr Ivar-Mega-Dorky-Nerd-King :-P
(Strangely, I am jealous...)

Please give me the strength to study harder

Well, I pray that the Lord is willing to give me the strength to study harder and be more concentrated on my tasks that I have before me, and be my guiding light, and I pray that His will will always come true.

I hope that He will show me what my calling is in this world, no matter if it's Priesthood, work in the IT-industry or anything else, I will always try my best and be true to my call.

I will also pray that God will show His Church for all people, so that people will be Saved.

Well, then some more earthly matters.
Today we went to a restaurant, since Doriz (our dog) is very sick, and my grandmother wasn't in the mood to cook something up (and I wasn't either, since I've spent every minute awake studying the book "Fluency with Information Technology" (by Lawrence Snyder)).
I had snails for entrée and grilled salmon as the main course.

We have also seen a new episode of "Desperate Housewives" and the episodes are just getting more and more perverted.
I don't think it would be too much of a loss if I missed some episodes, but unfortunately there are some very interesting happenings, which I must know how they'll turn out.

The days go by...

...and the day of reckoning is nigh,
though there is no time,
to ponder and find,
what's in my mind,
I have to study in time,
before standing in line,
for my final time.

(Yes, I guess I'm no good at this either, or what do you think?
Please leave a comment!)

No backwards compatibility in PS3s?

Well, I was quite surprised when I read at Eurogamer that the new 40GB PS3 will replace the 60GB version, and well, the only difference is that the 40GB-version won't have backwards compatibility. So, then there's no need to worry, eh? Well, from my point-of-view, I think there's a great deal to worry about, since I have been thinking of replacing or buying an Xbox 360, but not done so since for example Jet Set Radio Future and the Dancing Stage-games doesn't work on it, but I don't have a PS2, so I guess it's no problem for me actually...
So, back to my studies...

No hot air balloon today..

Well, I got an SMS (right after Mass today) from dad that we can't fly the hot air balloon today either.

I think it's about the 6th or 7th time they cancel it due to the weather, and this time it seemed as if the weather was fine (the weather hasn't been that terrible the other times it was cancelled either...). But I guess they know what they're doing, and in a way it's good since my sister probably wouldn't have been able to come with us since she works today.

Well, at the moment I am eating breakfast.____________________________________

Hot air balloon tomorrow?

Well, if we're lucky (or maybe not) we're going to fly hot air balloon tomorrow, the whole (fathers'-side) family, including grandma (on my fathers' side of the family).
Today I've studied about three hours, but I've also cleaned my room and visited Åhléns to buy three pair of socks as well as the two last manga-books in the Love Hina-series, so I at last will be able to read the ending (will Keitaro marry Naru Narusegawa?).
Well, may God be with us all. Good night.

Swimming today

Well, I and Bob have been talking about swimming (in a swimming hall) for the past couple of weeks I guess, but today I actually think that we are going to swim, since I've got a bathing-trunks and I am not having a cold or anything.

As usual, when we have decided to go to the swimming hall, I had forgot to bring bathing-trunks from home, so I bought a new pair yesterday, which I also cleaned yesterday, so everything is ready for some swimming this afternoon.

4 hours accomplished

Yes, I've just accomplished four hours of studying today.
I truly hate myself for not having enough discipline on myself to stay away from the computer or to do other things than studying (I have to fetch water and tea to drink sometimes though...).
...but I'm glad that I'm a little bit of a nerd, compared to my friend Bob, who apparently isn't the least "nerdy" :-P

Studies... and nerd test?

I didn't know what to answer on some of the questions.
No, unfortunately I am not talking about studies (as I definitely should do).
I have still an hour of studying or so ahead before I hit the sack, but my friend Bob did trick me to take this (silly) nerd test, so I took it, and well, look at the results (Bob got 14, I apparently got 46 - "lightly nerdy"...)

Headache. I thought it was gone.

...but it has come back to haunt me now, I guess.
Well, as you should know (if you've been following this, my blog, or if you've read a bit in the archives) I've had very serious trouble with headaches in the past.
So today I have had the most terrible headache in ages.

I know, I shouldn't complain.
I'm lucky to have food and a roof over my head.
But it's just that it's stopping me from doing so much studying as I had planned, so now, altough it's only 20:31 a clock, I am going to hit the sack.

Oh, by the way, I would like to recommend everyone to take a look at the fantastic Catholic Message Board.
There are a lot of wonderful people over there ;-)

Wasted time

To be really honset to myself, and all others, I've really mostly wasted my time today.
I've been going around in my room thinking of what I would do today, but I've actually not been doing that much at all. Mostly I have been posting things on the Defenders of the Catholic Faith-forums, which I surely could spend less time doing...

Well, I've also read a bit in my book, but I should have been able to accomplish much more, if I had shut down my laptop instead of checking it every five minutes (and sitting there for another ten minutes each time, or much more, I have absolutely no sense of how much time I truly spend on these kind of things, I suppose...).

Testing if picture disappears

Well, I'm mostly going to test if a picture, if removed from my Picasa Web Album, is also removed from my web log.

Update: Appearantly it IS removed (according to the dialogue box that popped up when I tried to remove it) from my blog also if I remove it from Picasa Web Albums... :-(

I want unlimited storage on Blogger again! XD

Bourne Identity - just too much violence

Well, hello everyone.
This evening I've been looking at the film "Bourne Identity" (since I and grandpa, on my mother side, did consider to go to the theater to see "Bourne Ultimatum" but realised that one has to see the first two films before seeing the third in the series) which is considered a "James Bond-clone" by some reviwers, and I can't do anything but to agree with them.

Well, but for some things there are huge differences in how the film is made.
It lacks the kind of perfectionism that the James Bond-films has been able to maintain, that is to not cross the line where it's "too much" violence.
Unfortunately the americans doesn't seem to know where this line is, so instead of crossing the line, they've blasted the line into small bits.

Another thing the film lacks is heart.
In James Bond-films there is always room for some forgiveness and the organisation doesn't seem so cold, but rather friendly and caring about the British citizens.
The impression one receives from viewing "Bourne Identity" is that the USA isn't actually caring about the safety of its citizens, and the safety of human beings whatsoever.

Here you can find a review.

Gmail video

Well, the folks over at Google (the Gmail division I guess) has compiled quite a funny video with people "sending" a Gmail-e-mail-message. (Actually passing it over)

Take back your neighbourhood - Graffiti Tracker

Well, I just read from the BBC that the company Graffiti Tracker has come up with a system to locate perpetrators that spray colours and writing their "tags" with these colours, using GPS and digital photography technology. BBC's explanation was quite unsettling, so I decided to check it up myself, and the demonstration is much more satisfying.

(I have absolutely nothing against Jet Set Radio Future, it's actually one of my favourite videogame of all times :-))

In Kalix

Well, hello, I'm in Kalix now, a small "city", nearest big city is Luleå, I think.
It's quite interesting being here, and I've been fishing a lot with my friend, Bob, but since I'm at the library now, I can't post any photographs. I' home again 20th of august, but I'll try to enjoy my stay here in northern Sweden as much as I can!

Cheers!

Oh happy days...

Well, I've recently finished my summer job at YIT and have had a "free" week (free from work, not entirely though, since I've been "forced" to help my grandparents to mow the lawn and so forth) so far. Yesterday I packed for my trip to Luelå, and I did also visit "Jula" to buy a telescopic rod, and got a whole set with rod, reel and line for 199 SEK!
Well, I guess I have some things to do now, since we're probably going back to our summerhouse later today.

Kerazy Kenny Rogers

Well, it seems as if Mad TV really has a "thang" for Kenny Rogers, since they made both a punk'd-, Grease- and Jackassversion featuring one of my favourite country music artists...

Tired...

Well, yet another week has passed, and I'm so tired, well I guess you all notice what time it is also... It's just that I'd like to be up until it's late now, when it's weekend.
It only happens once a week you know.

I'm still struggling to become a Catholic, and I hope that God will lead the way for me.

A little thanks to Nestlé

Well, yesterday I was munching a 170 gram package of Nestlé Smarties and I thought that I'd create something with them, so well, here's a little thank you for you people over at Nestlé for my Wii!

Wii-feverish!

Well, I've been using my Wii for, well, two days now, and I like it very much.
It's very cool that it also works with my FON Router without causing me any trouble or so, and if only my computer would be without all the hassle and troubles like my Wii .
Well, I've heard that Mac's are supposed to be without trouble, so I hope to get one of them Apple Macbooks or whatever they're called (the portable ones) since I now got a job during the summer at YIT (www.yit.se if you want to know what it is, I currently have a position at Facilities management.).

Well, I don't know if I have written it before, but it was in a Nestlé competition I won the Nintendo Wii, for suggesting a new Smarties product.

I'll be getting a Wii

Hello everyone,
well, I'll be getting a Wii next week, since I won in a Nestlé-competition, and I'm so excited about it! So, I am going to upload the two finest Wii wallpapers I've found :-P

Testing Safari - Firefox still much better

Hello everyone,

well, I haven't been able to test Apple's browser Safari until now.

I also realize why more people prefer Firefox, since there are NO toolbars for Safari for example, and when I'm typing this entry for my blog, I can see what I wrote some seconds later. Apple really have some things that they need to fix, and I think I'll stick to Firefox, and I advice other to do the same (even if I were to buy a Mac, I'd probably install Firefox, since many more webpages support it and so forth).

Well, now I am truly pissed off, since I even couldn't upload a screenshot to Blogger from when I used Safari, so I am now uploading it in Firefox instead...

To the university!

Oh, I almost forgot, last Friday, I and my grandmother (on my father's side of the family) were supposed to see a film at the theater, but unfortunately we didn't find a film that was good, so we postponed that.

We did visit my university where I'll probably be studying this autumn, and it seems to be a very nice school.

Oh, yes, this picture to the left is a picture of Keitaro Urashima, when he's in the Tokyo University if I'm not wrong.

Cheerios.

Oh, the wonders of doing nothing

...in particular that is.
I have been very much free, though we have been at our summerplace.
I have managed to finish both "Dancing Stage: Mario Mix" and "Disney's PK: Out of the Shadows" - both of them are to my Nintendo GameCube.

I've also been reading this very interesting book, by Dan Brown, "Angels and Demons" and I can't (almost) do anything but to read the bloody book!

So here's the latest fun YouTube video I've found - featuring Hitler (it's practically scenes from "Der Untergang" - very good film too, should be viewed by everyone.)

Graduation

Well, today is The Big Day.
I'm "finally" going to end my third year in upper secondary school, and after the summer "break" I'll be (probably) in a University. It's sad though, to lose the teachers I've learned to love, and the other students I have learned to know. I hope I can keep in touch with some of them though.

Heading to Åbo!

Well, hello everyone,
any second now my grandpa will come home and drive me to the inner city of Stockholm, where I'll departure for a cruise to Åbo, Finland, with some people from my school, who are also going their third year in my upper-secondary school. I hope it'll be great fun and so forth, and I'm planning on buying some M & M's, but also to talk a lot to people!

So, I'll bring my camera as well to save some memories for life, hehe ;-)

Communism keeps breaking my heart

Well, first, there was Good Bye Lenin!, now it's "A squirrel and the hedgehog" (part 2).
It seems as if North Korea would be the place to be, but unfortunately there are some other clips on YouTube saying the opposite.

So, why does communism always have to seem so nice and so forth, but as soon as a great leader wants to make the dream come true, they make their own dreams of luxury come true, and forget about the people, and instead of providing them with food, they provide them with propaganda in different forms?

...and why on earth is countries such as North Korea and China forcing religious movements and political ones underground?

I'm just asking, and I wouldn't mind being answered by a representative from the Chinese embassy, or the chinese government, nor the North Korean government or embassy.

You've got my e-mail, minutz3@gmail.com

Cheers

Eurovision - wrong song won, as usual

Well, hello all of you out there reading my blog (yes, I know there are a few, don't deny it, embrace it :-P)
Usually, I always watch the Eurovision Song Contest, but yesterday I didn't.
That was strange for me, who usually tries to keep my "traditions", but I had already seen most of them on this terrific site.
As usual (that seems also to be a tradition) wrong song won.
I usually support Germanys song (especially last year, with their country song "No No Never" by the Australian band "Texas Lightning")

This year I had hoped for Belarus or Switzerland, but none of them won though...
So, back to my homework, but now it's time to go to church appearantly XD

My first AMV - Wind, SKAMP - You've got style

I've almost forgotten to announce my own first AMV, which I, by the way, doens't think was so good, but appearantly one person on YouTube thinks so :-P.
Or maybe two, because one posted the comment, and a period of time after that it was rated with 5 out of 5 stars. I think it's really too bad to upload to YouTube, but what do you think?
I'd love to hear from all you people out there, reading my blog!
I know there are a few of you ;-)

My notes on it (clipped from YouTube):
"This is a video I actually did a couple of years ago, when I were obsessed with the Eurovision Song Contest and Anime, but I never got it to be perfect, it's still not perfect, but I thought that I'd upload it anyway. I guess that Windows Movie Maker did something to the rythm in the video, that it once had... Anyway, enjoy it, and please do write a comment about it!
Oh, and about the subtitles, don't focus on them :-P"

Happy Happy Friday! Yogurting!

*Phew*
Well, I've just finished my project-report, and I have been working with it about 10 hours with no breaks. Did go and eat lunch at Pizza Hut (Yay! I love Pizza Hut!) though, I and my grandpa that is. We both had the lunch buffet, and drank Pepsi Max (Mmmm...).
Some notable facts about my day though:
* I had been working for about five hours without drinking anything when my grandmother arrived, and wanted access to the computer
* I had been wanting to visit the bathroom (to pee) for more than 5 hours

So, I thought I deserved to watch some fun colourful thing, so I watched this YouTube video;

My...remote...is frozen!

This was a very fun video I found yesterday (hrrm, when I actually should do homework..hrrm..)

Pokémon kid

I just recently (a few minutes ago that is) found this fun video over at Google, and it made me happy, and by spreading it, I hope to make other people happy as well :-D.

I'm not so happy these days though, since I haven't got any job for the summer holidays yet, and I have too much to do before me graduating...

24h Flickr (yesterday)

Well, as I (hope) some readers know, yesterday was 24 hours of Flickr.
My contribution was this corn.
I'm quite proud of it and I certainly hope that it'll make it into the Flickr book, hehe.
Well, today there's church and homework...

So, bye for now.

iGoogle and quote of the day

I was surprised and didn't quite get the quote of the day, from my iGoogle page at first, but I get it now, and it's quite a fun quite as well.

"America believes in education: the average professor earns more money in a year than a professional athlete earns in a whole week.
- Evan Esar"

The new personal Google page is called iGoogle, don't ask me why, but I like it, very much indeed.

Best in class - again

Hello everyone,
well, I got to hear a good word about me from my English teacher, Hanna Rüngen Wallner, again. She told me that I scored best in my English class, on a unprepared test! She has told me, on the other test about grammar, that I got the best score in class, and now this again.
Oh well, I only have some anylysis to do now then...
As if I'll really be finished with them before me going out of upper-secondary school.

The nature science test

As those of you who have read some of the posts before this one will note, I didn't think that I'd score good on the last nature science test. Guess what , I was right (as in most cases)...
I got the first IG ever in upper secondary school I fancy. IG is the worst possible grade that one can get... Got it back about a week ago though, so I think I've mourned, not enough though.

Becoming (a bit) nostalgic

Well, I found some photographs from my "youth" (well, last year or so...) that I liked beacause in a way we humans tend to glorify where we have come from I guess.

Well, after testing this, I guess I am going to start using Flickr more instead...

Go Yahoo! I guess, when Google isn't allowing me to upload so much as I'd like to...

10 April 2007-The nature science test..

...went to h*ll, with the math I guess. (I'm not exactly a professional in math, neither in nature science this term anyways.) Yes, as you may notice I'm back on Yahoo! 360 again. Mostly because I'm fed up with Google's habbit of making their services more and more rubbish... and of course the announce ment that Yahoo! e-mail acoounts will have unlimited storage in a near future. Well, so this day has mostly been s-h-i-t (sorry)... Oh, well, I've got my last.fm-account working though, so you can check out what I listen to.

See you later, alligator!

PS. I actually don't know if I really will stay with Google's services since they seem to do like good ol' Microsoft, they lock you into their system, and start milking more and more money from you... DS.

Orkut!

Hello folks,
well, I've started using orkut, and it's truly a wonderful community, with over 50 million members (!) - by Google of course. So, get your ass moving and head over to www.orkut.com to get a user account ;-)

BTW, my user ID on orkut is minutz3, so please add me there ;-)

At a Microsoft fair in Kista

Hello everyone,
well, yesterday (well, the day before yesterday that is now..), on Sunday afternoon, I were at this Microsoft event in Kista, Microsoft's HQ in Sweden, where I was with my grandpa and my friend Bob. We got to test the new Windows Vista as well as Xbox 360, and to watch a lot of cool new products from Microsoft . I and Bob also got a Windows Live Messenger t-shirt! (It was one for us each, so we don't have to share one, that is..).
Well, I hope to shoot that t-shirt and upload it here, maybe on Friday this week, because I fancy I'll meet Bob.

By the way, today there is 34 (33 now) days before I go to London!

Staying at Blogger, I think

Since I'm tired of the big ads on Windows Live Spaces, but also the incredible slow loading time for Windows Live Spaces :-(.
Well, hurray for Blogger :-P

Get a Wii granny!

I read a very interesting article over at SPOnG, where the nice chaps wrote an interesting article about old people wanting a Wii or Nintendo DS.

"SPOnG-News carried out its own poll this morning. Well, we spoke to Adam-SPOnG’s nan, Eileen (77) to quiz her on the matter and ask if she’d like a Wii for Xmas.

SPOnG: “Have you seen the new Nintendo Wii yet then Eileen?”

Eileen: “What do you mean? What counter will it be on then? With games and computers and all that?”

SPOnG: “Yes, Nintendo has just sent out some research that claims that even older people such as yourself still want the same gaming gadgets – like the Wii – such as us young ‘uns.”

Eileen: “Hahahahahaha! Do you have to have a computer to do it on?”

SPOnG: “No, you plug it into your telly, just like your DVD player.”

Nan: “Oh yes right! There’s enough on’t telly already! I don’t think we’d know where to start. Just get us something nice for the garden like you usually do.”

However, Andy-SPOnG assures us that his mum is also a granny and she’s getting a DS for Christmas. We know she’s getting one because he’s bought it for her - along with Brain Age."

Well, to me it seems as if the old lady really doesn't want something like a Wii.

Sorry for not sharing my Strange U.S military dream

Yep.
I am sorry.
Sorry that I did not share that strange U.S. military dream I had 8 December.
I did write it on my Live Space. As well as Yahoo 360. Even on AOL Journals I wrote it.
I am so sorry, Google guys, for not being equitable with ye, with all your open-source and open-minds and so forth. Well, here it is, the awaited U.S. military dream;

Well, tonight I had this very strange dream. Actually, I dreamt about three main persons. Two soldiers in the U.S. Military, one of them jealous of the other because he was in a military group that had the more "macho" assignments. Well, then the macho soldier's girl wanted to try how it was being a soldier and everything (I think she was the macho soldiers girlfriend anyway, I don't remember the details). Anyway, she was dressed as a soldier in the U.S. Military and succeeded in coming in to a lunch room or something, where they, all three, ate at a table, but with a fourth person too, a girl. So this girl, she remarked that when she gave this disguised girl good feedback for being so well-dressed at the lunch table, she discovered that she leaned her left bone leg backwards, as to say thank you. So she asked up this disguised woman for a dance, and that's where my dream ends actually.

Another thing, I think the more macho one out of these guys were in an organisation called the IGUGAI or something... Never heard of it anyway... (That's what I read in my notebook, and what I wrote down after having had the dream, so that's a special feature for all my Google readers ;-))

In other words, my life is business as usual, I have the blessing to have most homework in my school probably...

Me and Bob-Halloweenparty 2006!

Hello everyone.

I just had to upload this photograph of me and my friend Bob when we're eating at my Halloweenparty I had out in my grandparents countryplace. We were alltogether 12 persons, including my sister, her friend, my grandparents, my uncle and so forth.

White and Nerdy

Hello everyone.

Well, my weekend has been quite good, as usual that is. My friend Bob slept over tyhis weekend, as usual XD. We saw two Pay-Per-View-films via Com Hem, "North Country", about a woman who needs to work in a mine since she needs the money, and "Just like heaven" about a woman, working at a hospital, who drives herself to death, when she is hit by a 18-wheeler. We also saw "Terminator", the first film that is, and "Oceans's Eleven" on DVD's that we I and my grandmother had borrowed from a "dog-buddy" of grandmother's.

I have also tried to contact as many people as possibly that I know and try to invite them to my Halloween-party on 4-5 November, but everyone seems to be busy and so forth...

Well, I have to do some homework, even when I have autumn holidays this whole week, *sigh*.

My sacred place

Hello again.
Well, this is an old photograph I found from Källtorpsskolan, with our librarian over there, from 2001.
I really liked to spend my time in the library, and I still see libraries as a sacred place, and all libraries in the world has a special place in my heart.

Picasa

Hello everyone, again.
Well, I just wanted to try to publish a photograph I found via Google Picasa, this photograpg of me is quite new actually and I like it :-P 

A calm weekend

Hello everyone.
Well, I've just had one of the most calm weekends ever.
I only did some homework on Saturday, before 14:00, when Bob, a friend of mine, came over.
We have watched a lot of films, about 7 titles. National Treasure, Wallace and Gromit; The Werewolf Rabbit, Team America, American History X, Freedomland, Disney's Home On The Range, and Needful Things. So even though I am under pressure of a lot of homework, I have taken some time to see these films with Bob.
American History X was very interesting to see, but very frightening as well.
It was very frightening to see how such a lovely family can be torn to pieces by racist hate.

Well, I'd better start working!

Yours sincerely/minutz3
PS. Weird Al Yankovic's new video "White and Nerdy" is the best! DS.

Scout hike-Ängsjö 2006

Hello everyone.
Well, this weekend I have been on a scouting hike with my scouting group, and DID we have a great time! At Friday evening we slept over at the scout house and ate some potato crisps, and well, we were up until about 03:00 or so, and the girls kept on talking the whole night thru I guess, and I also guess that I was the one who suffered the most by not sleeping during the night, since I hardly couldn't stand straight the other day. On Saturday, we began our adventure, to search for transmitters in the woods, and also to canoe over to an island. I thought that would be fine, just that I didn't remember that I do NOT like to canoe. Canoes are really scary things, I always think I'll drop into the sea any second when I am sitting in a canoe. That is NOT pleasant. Well, anyway, we had to ring our scout leaders and ask for the way a couple of times, and we rowed in the wrong direction, to the wrong side of the lake (...) and some other not so necessary things. Well, before we actually came into the canoe, we had some trouble finding the place where it actually was. That wasn't so pleasant either, since we got lost in the upper-class districts. Well, that is anyway what I think it was, because all houses looked very expensive and so forth. The other group, that was team Yellow, consisted of two blonds and two other older senior scouts (a senior scout is someone in the age of about 15 to 19 years old). Anyway, we were team Red, and we came out in the lake before team Yellow since we knew where we where, which team Yellow didn't know... Well, we came to the place where we would camp for the night at about 22:30 or so, and we didn't have the dinner ready until about 23:30.. ..and then we had the ceremony for the two new members of our senior scout team, the two blonds. Well, and on Sunday it started raining when we canoed home again, so they cancelled the rest of the hike, altough there wasn't too much left of it, (I am quite happy that we DID cancel the hike though XD). Then we went to the scout house and cleaned everything we had used during the hike. I think we had a great time and s0 forth, and I truly hope I'll be able to participate in more scout events in the future!

Here are some photographs from the hike;

17 August 2006 - Back home from the country

Well, I just copy this right from my Yahoo 360-page;

Hello everyone.
Well, yes, I am back home from our (to be frank, it is my grandparent's) house out in the country. Anyway, it was very nice to spend, hmm, two days there. I have seen "Blackmail" a good British film about two girls blacmailing a british maffia, who have just made a robbery. I've also seen "Chicken Little" for the second time I guess, as well as all the bonus material. I have also seen "Resident Evil", the film that is, and it wasn't all that bad as the critics have said it would be. It was quite good actually, wheter you believe it or not. I also watched a continued version of the series "Father Ted". "Father Ted" is really a brilliant series I must say, as well as "Doctor Who". Uhm, and, well, as you can see, I have started using Windows Live Spaces, and, well, I'll guess I try it out as well as Yahoo 360.
Now I guess I have to go to bed, and tomorrow I'll have a scout-hike to attain to!

/minutz3

Well, I have started using Yahoo 360. A lot. The URL is http://uk.360.yahoo.com/minutz3

360 page!

Hello everyone!
I have started using Yahoo! 360 and I love it! I would like everyone to visit my new page; http://uk.360.yahoo.com/minutz3 which I'll be using in the future since it's so convenient!

Hello everyone.
Well, the summer holidays is about to end, so I better start writing on my blog and start getting ready for school again. At the moment I am quite tired, so I have to sleep now, and I hope I am able to write more tomorrow.

Eurovision Song Contest-fever!

Hello mates.
Well, yesterday it was Eurovision Song Contest, and my favourites were, of course, Germany contribution, with their country-style band "Texas lightning" and their song "No No Never". They made a great performance and everything, but then there was my other favourite - Turkey (Sibel Tuzun with the song "Super Star"). They did also a good performance and so, but Lordi won, and that's great! I really liked their "Hard Rock Hallelujah", but I never thought that they would claim the first prise for such a song. I mean, it's not so much Eurovision about it, but it's far better than most "Hard Rock" songs. I don't know if one can say that this was a hard rock song though. Anyway, I have some homework to do, and I have also an urgent need to play Super Mario 64 now! Bye! /minutz3

Poems

Hello mates.
Well, today in school, we made some poems. On the English lesson that is. So, well, I thought I'd publish some of my poems, I did three poems, but I don't think the third is of any good quality. Besides, I don't remember it at the moment, maybe I'll write about it later though.

"Zlatan was killed,
by a soccer guild,
when he was playing in the field"

"If you (originally "touch") ruin my flowers,
I'll show you my powers,
and disorganise thou face"

Well, that's it for the moment. /minutz3

McNightmare

Yes, you who have read my swedish blog doesn't need to read this, heehee..
Anyway, I had a very frightening dream tonight. I dreamed that I ate an BigMac at McDonald's. I woke up all sweaty and my heart almost jumped out of my chest. Yes, I am a vegetarian. A demi-vegetarian to be precise. Anyway, I think I got this nightmare about McDonald's from my visit at McDonald's at Friday, when I met a communist chatfriend in Stockholm. He was quite nice to talk with and so, so we had a good time, but he had to eat something before he had to go back to his schoolgroup, since they only were on visit to Stockholm. So in a hurry we (he) bought something at McDonald's. It's really crappy there you know, but he had to eat something I guess. /minutz3

Yay! Another great (?) day!

Hello dear mates!
Well, today I got another businessenglish test back... I got VG :-(
In Sweden, there is MVG, and that is the best grade (that is what I am aiming for in almost all subjects..), VG, that is the second best grade, G that means that you're ok, and IG, that means that you're not ok. And then there is BUS, and that means that the teacher can't give you a grade, since you haven't turned in enough material and so on to do so.

Uhm, and today I have also watched another episode of "Desperate Houwives". I really love this series. It was the episode where Gabrielle is giving the church money so Sister Mary Margaret and Carlos can travell to Africa. Well, she doesn't know that Carlos will be going on the trip as well at first, but she'll soon find out that. It's also the episode where Bree tells Andrew that she killed George. ...it is also the episode where Andrew invites one of his "intimate" friends, and his "friend" says that he shouldn't be so though on Bree, after all, she is his mum. But Bree is still upset that Andrew invites his homosexual friends and... well... but Andrew doesn't really care, since he thinks she was the cause of his father's death. Well, it is a very complicated series, but it is brilliant really!

Well, good night to all of you, and live well!

Noooo.... foooooood...?

Well, I think I misjudged time.
The springrolls weren't finished. I think they need another 10 minutes or so... I guess that it's because I was so hungry, so I forgot about time or something. Anyway, I have to wait for another 10 minutes... Oh, the pain...

Springrolls...

Well, I'm starving! I've just been away and swimming and the sprinrolls still need... uhm... 3 minutes.... I'm starving...
The rest of this day will be spent in front of my math book and some other books... No books that I have chosen to read anyway... But, well, this is life I guess.

Live well /minutz3

Maaaaaaath!

Yes, I truly hate math. The problem is, I have to do it anyway... I wish there was a way I could learn without having to spend so much time to understand it and memorise everything. I mean, it would be great if I could just swallow a pill and I knew everything about it. Or if I could have a chipset installed into my brain... /minutz3

to ze office!

Yes, I'm on my way to my grandparents office again. The mediproduction lesson was cancelled due to some work with the computer room. So we got a paper with homework instead. :-(
/minutz3

Stomach problems...

Yes, that's absolutely right. I think I have some problems with my stomach at the moment. I am going to try to eat something now, and see if I can do some homework after that. I'm not so hopefull though. But we'll see... Oh, by the way, maybe I should talk a little about the political course I went on this weekend? Well, for example, we had the leader of IUSY there. She told us what the IUSY did, and so on. We also had some history about our main "enemy" in politics. I think you've already figured it out that it's the Conservatives (Moderater in Swedish ;-)). We had some history about them, from the "Right party" to the "Moderate party". They have also changed their politics so much that they're called the "New Moderates" from some sources. Well, even from themselves nowadays... Uhm, well, I think I'll write some more some other day or so. /minutz3

home

Yes, I have decided to go directly home, instead of going to my grandparents. I'm so tired... /minutz3

Sleeeeepy..

Yes, I am IN school, but I could fall in sleep any minute now. I did go home during the lunch break, and I slept for two hours. That also that I haven't eat anything except for my breakfast, which was a portion of oat porridge. I was a bit hungry before.. Oh well, I'm still hungry I suppose, since I hear my belly screaming. /minutz3

Soon home!

Hello mates!
I am soon home from my second political course, and I'm very glad that I participated in this event. Hopefully I'll write some more when I'm back home and so. /minutz3

Nice day

Hello
I am just going to sleep now, but I thought that I'd post something on my blog. Well, I have had quite an intererting day, and have met quite a lot of different people. But I think we all can agree that we like social democracy. /minutz3

Going away today!

Yes, today is quite a big day for me, I'll be away, for the first time so far, on a political cours for two days. I will also sleep over there :-D
/minutz3

Testing mobile

Yes, I'm just testing to see if it works to send a message from my mobile phone. If it works, my weekend is saved, I suppose... /minutz3

Math and nature-knowledge

Well, I don't know the word for the second subject, but I guess that it is "nature-knowledge", because that is what you get when you translate it directly from Swedish to English. Well, I would very much have time to write a good story or something, but frankly, I can't. Well, see you later.

Math!

Hello.
Yes, I have some math for tomorrow. Well, actually, it's quite much math :-S
I do have a good CASIO calculator though, and it guides me. "Use the calculator...Feel the calculator... BE THE CALCULATOR!!" :-P
Well, I've had a little snack now, two Wasa-bread with some fish-thing on it, and a bowl of sour milk and Nestlé Fitness with Fruits. YEs, they do taste de-li-cious!

Busy.

Not so much to report today. I had a homework until tomorrow in our German book, "Unsere Welt" that comes with a CD. There was some hearing-übung I had to do, but I really didn't manage to do it, so I have to ask the teacher for help tomorrow.

Waaay!!!

YES! I did well on the presentation in the subject "small business". Appearantly, I'll get an MVG, that's the highest possible grade in Sweden. I'm so happy-happy!
...then a some bad news. My Sonyericsson T610 is broken, so I have to use my Ericsson A2618s from 1998 or so.. But it's okay. I shouldn't use my mobile to all those things I did with my SE T610. It's just ridiculous.

Blurr...

Uhm, well, I'm a bit dizzy at the moment, since I've studied small business from 12-21, and I studies it yesterday as well, about 4 hours. I really hope I do a good presentation tomorrow. By the way, I and my friend Bob, and the rest of my family, was on a boat to Aland (Åland) but unfortunately, there was some technical problems, so the ship never leaved Stockholm. But it was okay anyway.

Sending a photo

Yes, I test to send a photo from my SE T610.

We won.

Yes, DIF (Djurgården) won with 6-3 against Modo!

Unfortunately, I can't upload the photos I took. I took it with my Sonyericsson T610, so I'm in a bit of a situation. I have a Trust Bluetooth USB-adapter, and it works to send files to my phone from my PC, but not the other way around. Anyone who got a clue what I should do?
Well, I'll hit the sack now. Well, soon anyway. Good night.

Going to see icehockey!

Yes, that's right fellows, I'm going to see some good 'ol icehockey with me father and sister. It's a DIF-against-some-other-team match. I hope I can snap some photos ;-)

I think I'm not allowed to bring my digital camera, but I fancy I can use my crappy mobile phone to take a snapshot or two.
