University

Here's a sculpture for you. A ram. Because I'm an Aries in horoscope. It's my first real one ever, I made it a couple of years ago - the materials are clay and acrylic paint.

My friend as commander Shepard. She's a fan of Mass Effect, this was my birthday card for her. She liked it.

Oh yeah, I'm in university now. Started this week. But I'm reaally tired and don't feel like writing about it. I can tell you though that this week has been veery strange for me, because I'm not used to being alone. Well, I'm not completely alone actually, I have my two lovely dogs here to keep me company. But I'm pretty talkative and I don't like it that I always have to call someone if I want to chat. I've made a _lot_ of phone calls this week.

Ugh.

My senior high is almost over... Now I have to study for the university entrance exams and make my sample works. (For fine arts academy) And I have absolutely no time for anything else. 8< But of course it's very important and it's only for a little while.. But it still makes me a bit sad not being able to do all kinds of fun stuff I'd like to now in spring.. Like spending a lot of time outdoors and drawing or painting things I like. Now I only have time for my sample works, which aren't nearly as fun as my "own art"

I've applied to four art universities (three of them are universities of applied sciences and one is the Finnish academy of fine arts) and several other universities. (to study English, history or theology) My current plans for the sample works of the fine arts academy are two sculptures. I was going to paint something too, but now I don't think I have enough time.

Not-so-random randomness

Hmm, it's been long since my last entry.. (again!) I guess I'm a pretty lazy blog 

writer. : P But hey, I made you comics to compensate my resent slackness!

Yeah, I'm drawing myself as both human and crestie now : D

I still prefer the doggie, though.

A lot of things have happened.. And I haven't told you any of it D: But at least I wanted to say something about christmas, even though it's kind of late already. (It's so important to me! I couldn't just ignore it)

AND I had my penkkarit! I was so incredibly excited about them. But my costume took forever to make. I made a Moomintroll costume all by myself. It was harded to make than I thought, but really worth the trouble! It was so fun to be a moomin! And all the kids loved me : D

Info for the possible non-Finnish readers: in Finland we have this thing called "Penkkarit" (short for "penkinpainajaiset") which is a party held for (and by) the high school seniors who have finished their schoolwork. It's not a graduation party, because we still have matriculation exams and we have to study for them. (The graduation is at the beginning of summer) But we have finished the courses and have no classes anymore, so our "real schoolwork" is over and the whole school celebrates that for a day. : D It's a bit like a carnival. The seniors dress up in funny costumes and walk around the school tossing candy to the younger students, act all silly and have fun. Finally we drive around the town in a truck and visit the other schools and nurseries to toss some candy to the children too.

The next day I and three of my best friends went to a little trip to a nice spa - we stayed there for the weekend. It was kind of an extension to the party : D Most of the others from our school went to a cruise.. But we didn't want to go there, because none of us drinks alcohol and we knew that the cruise wasn't going to be much about anything else than getting extremely drunk. So we arranged our own trip! And we had a great deal of fun too. I fell in love with the spa's super-long water slide.

Watching TV with mom:

I quess this will have to do for now. 

The first picture promised you some random stuff... But this wasn't so random after all 83 I'm a horrible liar.
