HEE~ I’ve been meaning to get my snakebites back since last autumn but didn’t get it done more than halfway until today, hahah. Next up I have my free piercing (the piercer has a “take five, get one free” bonus card lul) aka I am getting my industrial back. Don’t wanna waste 75€ on one again in case it ends up being a bitch like the last one. :6 After that I am gonna get my brow done for the third (…) time~ But those will have to wait until autumn, I don’t want sweaty hair in the industrial and I don’t want to waste the free piercing by getting a cheapo brow piercing.

I went and bought Fallout 3 for the ‘box yesterday after getting tired of trying to get the Cider ports to work and it’s… fine I guess, lol. It doesn’t really live up to the hype imho+I suck at FPS games anyway but yeah it’s fun. Speaking of the ‘box I still haven’t finished Brütal Legend OR FFXIII OR Eternal Sonata. :c FFXIII is just painful and idk what happened with Brütal Legend, I think I got stuck on some task and ragequit. Eternal sonata I almost finished but my attention span got too short for it, hahah.

Other than that, not much really. It’s still way too hot to wear anything nice and I am still too lazy to take outfit shots, mostly because if I end up wearing anything nice I just rip it off myself as soon as I get home because I am more often than not damn near ot getting a heatstroke by that point. Waiting for the cooler weathers, dear god.

Have a generic camwhore photo to make up for the fact I haven’t manage to update this in two weeks again, hahah. Somehow I always manage…

Truthfully told I have been pretty busy with the advance tasks for school applications lately (or more so procrastinating with said advance tasks). Today I dropped them off so basically I am free to… procrastinate more from now on. They did make me a bit stressed so I am glad they are over with, however there are other things making me stressed as hell right now, such as the fact that I am completely and utterly broke. And by this I mean that I have about 4€ in total in my possession (in coins + two bank accounts) and had to loan 20€ from my flatmate today, so basically I am at -16€ as of now. Not all that cool. On times like these I miss having a job and being able to spend hundreds of euros on clothes monthly, no matter how shitty the job itself was. Oh well oh well!

What else have I been doing? I can’t even recall. I went to Mindcore a while back but unfortunately I was sick and couldn’t stomp for more than ten minutes in a row without feeling like dying. Could have been a good party otherwise, hahah. Something good came out of it though, because someone had scattered flyers for the next Graveyard party around and I learned that Hanzel und Gretyl will be there. And no, I had not known prior to that because every time I heard someone mention the event they had just been all “Durr Diary of dreams hurr”. I am so going, I have wanted to see that band for years now and I’ve heard they’re pretty epic live! If I get sick again I am gonna do something drastic, I always seem to get sick when there’s an event I am supposed to go to. You should have seen my 16-year-old jrawk fantard self QQ when I got a major fever when Dir en grey had their first club gig in Finland… Hahah.

Last weekend I went to see the M.C. Escher exhibition at Amos Anderson Art Museum with my girlfriend and it was awesome. I am bad (and frankly, too lazy to) at doing reviews of any kind, but I’m just gonna say that I enjoyed seeing all those works live and felt dumb when I realised that so many things I hadn’t known were by him were, in fact, by him, hahah. Highly recommended even though it was kind of a small exhibition, do yourself a favor and go see yourself some truly unique art if you’re around Helsinki.

Over and out for now since my gaming senses are tingling. In related news I picked up FFXIII again (I bought it on its release day and played it for ten hours before I decided I was disappointed at it) and it’s actually getting a lot better, I am glad I found the will to fight through the boring as hell first 15 hours. In chapter 9 right now, it’s supposedly getting a lot better at chapter 11 which isn’t more than a few hours away. I am still kind of disappointed at it, but it’s not even nearly as disappointing as I initially thought. That was one hell of a slow start for a game though. Anyway, gonna log onto Megaten now, been neglecting it for a few days now. See you hopefully before another two weeks have passed!

I wouldn’t even have touched it today either hadn’t it been for school, in photojournalism class we had an assignment called “An hour” and had to come up with an idea and a method for a series. Mine was to go and dick around at a metro station for an hour and take photos of the clock at 15 minute intervals, which I did but won’t post here because there were too many photos, just documenting what happens there during that time. No one ever spends an hour at a metro station, everyone just passes by it while they’re on their way somewhere, it was kind of interesting to just stick around there for so long, hahah,

Anyway a few select photos from the huge batch I shot:

Something’s definitely up with the server today, uploading & inserting those into the post took way longer than it should have. Oh well. In an appropriately geeky way to end this entry and to make up for the lack of IRL outfit shots, my Megaten character is finally starting to look like it’s mine:

You don’t get much frillygawther than that ingame without creating a female character, hahah.

Coat – F+F// Shirt – AatP // Vest – thrifted // Pants – f+F // Boots – Demonia // Bow – BPN // Hat – F+F // Pocketwatch – gift

Is it just me, or does everyone else experience this weird hat phenomenon as well? I mean I could wear the rest of this outfit and feel absolutely comfortable with it any day, but as soon as I put a hat on, be it a top hat of any size, or just any other kind of a hat, I start feeling like everyone is staring at me – which is kind of ridiculous, since they are gonna be staring at me anyway, hat or no hat. There’s just something about those pesky little hats, I dunno.

In any case, I’d rate the movie adaptation of Alice an 8 out of 10. It was visually stunning as expected (it was also the first 3D movie I ever saw, it was weird at first but as soon as I got used to it, it was so much more awesome than regular movies) but as a Burton, Burton x Depp and Alice fan I really expected something more. Oh well, I guess it could have been worse…
