Once upon a time

Once upon a time.

There’s nothing like that anymore. And never will be, any movie or any actor like him.

Read my mind, part 2

Well, when I was in the train today, travelling towards the place I call home, I decided to write a long, long entry for my blog. So long that nobody can’t read it totally. About what? Well, I’ll find out. But, anyway, I know already it’ll be quite… strange, so, please, try to understand. I’m not the most normal girl, I guess.

First, let’s talk about movies. I’ve seen quite many movies in my life, but the first one I actually remember was Bambi. I went to see it with my godmother, and it was a bad decision – I was maybe about 6, and cried when… well, you know. I don’t want to spoil the part where Bambi’s mother… well, so.

Then, when I was maybe 13, I watched three movies, which I really do like. The Beatles’ Yellow Submarine, which was maybe the most psychedelic movie I’ve ever seen, Stand by Me, which is still my favorite movie, and The Breakfast Club. Last one is still quite important for me, I’ll get you a quote from it later on.

Ok, I guess movies are boring topic, sorry. But, still, if you want to know something about my personality, we have to discuss about one movie, Elizabethtown. Why?

Because…

…the theory about substitute peoples. Here it comes.

I’ve wanted to be a substitute person for my whole life. I’ve tried to make others life a bit easier, and I’ve tried to take the place which is needed. It’s quite hard to explain, so, lets take an example.

Somebody is lonely. He/She (usually they’re boys, actually, but let’s return to it later) needs a friend. If she is a hippie, I’ll become a hippie also. If he listens to heavy metal, I’ll listen it also. So, the point is that I’ll try to be flexible, I’ll try to make she/he understand, that he/she is important, she is special, and the things she/he does aren’t worthless. And, when she/he realizes that and gets more self-confidence or becomes happier or… anyway, I’ll concentrate to next one. When I’m not needed anymore, I’ll be ready to leave, ‘cos if I would stay, I would just want to continue and continue, and the sad fact is, that substitute persons aren’t mean to be established.

So, that was a part of my theory, and I’m usually happy with it. But then, sometimes, I meet a person who really likes me as I am, and then… I usually fall in love. And gosh, it is maybe the worst thing that can happen to a substitute person. I start to enjoy about everything which I see in him – his smile, the rhythm he speaks, what kind of words he uses… I really do love little things, those details, and when I fell in love, I’ll pay special attention to those. And when I find more and more… it’s not easy for a substitute person. So, actually, I should not fell in love with anybody, ever. ‘Cos if I do, I start to demand too much from a person, who should be the one I should NOT demand anything.

Ok, that was enough about substitute people and feelings, right now.

Snow. I do love snow. When it falls softly or the wind makes flakes dance. When it catch on my hair, when I can try to hunt snowflakes with my tongue, when my foot prints stay in the snow. (English people don’t have enough words for snow, actually. In Finland we have quite many, even though I guess we’ll forget them soon). This evening it was snowing and it made me glad. I hope I could draw a picture with my pastels, but a promblem is that I should use only black and white (it is dark outside) and I’m not good at drawing with out colors.

Colors are my strength. I can choose exactly right color for fire, for leaves and so on. I can’t draw, but I can use colors, and hues of the colors.

Oh, about colors. I’ve never told you about coloring the music. Sometimes, not so often anymore, I just sit in my room, put some music on, and color it. Usually cellos are dark blue (Apocalyptica, for example), Sting is red as dark roses and a bit haze with it, The Killers are like burned umbra… And same thing with moods and … well, tagging. I’ll show you what I mean. In last.fm, I’ve tagged quite much of the music I’ve listened by random. I’ll link the songs for you also, if I can find them. But not now, ‘cos my great internet connection would crash.

What else I could talk about? Hmm, maybe about autumn, as I always do. I love autumn, maybe because I’ve always been happy during it… or, actually, not always, but. I’ve been in love, I’ve written letters, I’ve been very creative. I do love rain and wind and frost and mud and all that.

But the truth is that if autumn is going to last around the year, I’ll be sad. ‘Cos part of the attractiveness of that season is the ending, first snow and so on. And if it fades, autumn loses it’s magic.

I have a dream. Actually many, but let’s have a look for that single one. I want to go to a silent movie (you know, like Charles Chaplin etc.). One of those which were accompanied with a pianist, which played during the whole movie. That must have been totally great. And it’s gone.

I also want to… well, it’s not that important. Just a thing I miss terribly, which is kind of crazy.

Actually, I’m quite nervous right know. I don’t know have I feel or how I should feel. And I would like to break up with a boy I’m not even together. The problem, you see, is that I do like him too much. And, as always, I can’t do anything for it. He should be my best friend, but 1) people don’t fall in love with their best friends and 2) substitute people… well, yeah.

I’m tired to my network connection. Ka-BUM! Die, stupid wlan, die! Crash! Ca-BOOSH!

Yeah. How intelligent.

Ok. Let’s talk about domino cookies. There is that white… thing… inside them. It’s far too sweet for me, and I can’t understand why people keep trying to make me eat those monsters. I don’t like too sweet things, I prefer savoury snacks.

(There should be square.)

I hope I would be a bit more responsible, but unluckily, I’m not.

This is totally random.

And I’m random too. I don’t like to show too much about myself to other people, and still I do. Sometimes. And it’s quite hard, ‘cos I don’t actually know anymore, what kind of person I am. I’m melancholic and happy and optimistic and pessimistic and spontaneous and I think too much what I do and… well, you’ll get the point, hopefully. This is not easy to explain, and I don’t know why I do it in my blog, which nobody reads. Maybe ‘cos I’m far too tired.

Oh, about dreams. I remember my dreams quite well. Usually I saw dreams about tv-series or about books or… so on. I’ve seen a dream in which I kissed Zachary Quinto (he was marvellous kisser, by the way), I’ve seen a dream where I’ve been a mutant in X-men, I’ve seen a dream where I’ve been a wizard… And dreams are on of the best things in my life, really. Sadly they’re just dreams. (Zachary should be a part of my reality ;) )

My parents are arguing again. It is always sad. I can’t do anything about it, but I wish I could. I wish I could do something always, when people are sad. But, which is quite understandable, I can’t.

Altruism is a good thing, anyway. If we would put altruism and utilitarism together, it would make a perfect philosophy for me. Unfortunately, those people who are great philosophers, say that the point is to find an answer from one single thing, not from puttin a few aspects together. And that’s why I don’t want to be philosopher. (Even though I could make a stone for Harry Potter, omg!)

Well, this is getting interesting. Maybe I should end before I tell my deepest secrets, like that man in Montana… oh, did I just wrote that! Oh God, what have I done…

I guess that’s enough. I’ll  write more later on, but this is longest entry I’ve ever written, so maybe it’ll done. And, at least, it contains the theory about substitute people.

Aloha.

6. Peter Parker
He is smart. He is  outcast. He takes pictures. Einstein is his idol. And, best of all, he is Spiderman. He isn’t perfect (remember what happened to uncle Ben), he makes mistakes and his ability is not the most powerful in the world. And he is a comic hero. They are rarely in these days.

5. Luke & Ruth
Both Lukes, Skywalker in Star Wars -movies and Luke in the book called Dreamcatcher, are great. Luke S. has a lazer sword (so cool!) and the other Luke is telepathic. And, as we all know (or we don’t) telepathic guys are fascinating. Ruth, the girl who can see the dreams of people, is very great character also. Oh, girl in the list, strange.

4. Daenerys Targaryen & Arya Stark & Sandor Clegane & Jaqen H’gar
Daenerys is a dragon princess. Do I have to tell you more? Arya is an ordinary girl, but works hard to survive, and at least his the one who finds Jaqen H’gar. Sandor is a bad guy, and I do love bad guys… unfortunately. But, I guess there is something good inside. A scarred man can’t be totally bad, you know?

3. Roland & Eddie & Susannah & Alain & Jake
Dark Tower -series, as we all know, are one of the best series ever. Roland is cool, he is so harsh and intuitive. Susannah is a black woman, with roll chair, and she becomes to the gunslinger even though she can’t walk. Yeah. Eddie is simply funny, Alain… telepathic, and so is Jake.

2. Sylar & Matt & Hiro & Charlie
Sylar might be my favorite. His voice is so soft, power so fascinating and, as I’ve said before, I got attracted by bad guys. He also manipulates and so on, which makes he physologically interesting.
Matt is sweet, with his power. Telepathic :D And his so protective to Molly.
Hiro is so exhausted about everything, he really believes in good in the world and he is a nerd, which is a plus for me. He also speaks Japanese. And has glasses.
Charlie… oh, she is so nice, her power is fascinating and she was so sweet with Hiro.

1. Henry Winter
Needless to say more. Intelligent, glasses, blue eyes, languages, mysterious, a bad guy.

I’ve got to mention also Adaon, who has said “The more we love, the more there is space for loving in our hearts”, Claire in Elizabethtown and all other lovely characters I’ve loved. Especially Vetch, the black mage in Earthsea trilogy.

Quantum Leap

Today I watched television (which isn’t so common for me) and found a new serie, which I like. The name of the entry tells enough, I guess. It tells about a man, who goes around in the past and fixes things that have been wrong way. He always wakes up in a new body, and sees different images from the mirror.

I tried to think what it would be like, if it would happen to me. Living  many different lives, but just for a few days each. It could be horrible, or it could be fascinating… but, in some way, I guess all do so. We are different persons depending of who we talk to or what are we doing or… So, it’s just a bit more concretic.

On the corner of main street

It seems I’ve fallen love with a song. Band called The Killers made a song named Read my mind, and something in it is wonderful. Maybe the words, maybe the voice of the singer… I don’t really know. But, anyway, here it is. Hope you enjoy out of it as much I’ve enjoyed, I just ordered their cd, just ‘cos that one single song.  Oh, I’m hopeless.

Have you ever wondered if it would be nice to go to the cinema in old-time-style? With a film, which has no sound, like Charles Chaplin’s, and then a pianist playing background? I hope I would have a change to do that some day.

Good morning, Cork, you’re listening RedFM

Oh, I miss Ireland so much. It’s raining here in Finland, and it was raining whole time when I was in Ireland. And when I watched the beginning of Heroes, season 2, they were in Cork! That wasn’t very fair. Everything reminds me about that city.  Blarney Stone, Yoghal, Killarney, Murphys, Guiness, Baile al Loche… So many things, so many names. At least I know where I want to go when I grow up.

The ivy and the snow

I’m sitting here, in my little room, with Xubuntu 7.10, and writing this entry. The morning is very beautiful, so let me describe the view I can see from my window.

The ground is covered with snow, which glows in the sunshine. The ivy on our fence has withered, and it’s paved with frost, like a faded memory of summer. There is something so sad in that view I can’t explain, but I have those dreams, coloured with greyish-blue and white of the winter. I hope I could describe it better, but English ain’t my first language, so I can’t. Maybe I’ll get a picture later.

Snow ^^, part 2

This afternoon it was snowing. As we all know (or then not) in Secret History it is snowing after Bunny’s death. So, it seems that Hampden is still getting closer. (And yeah, this sounds strange.)

I also went to my piano lesson. Teacher said that I’m growing up, ‘cos my charasteristic is getting softer and so do my playing. Scaring.

Whoaa!

Yesterday I borrowed a book. The restaurant of yellow lemons was the name of it, and I’m quite interested about the story. But I haven’t started it yet, I’m going to wait until I have my room cleaned and I’ve helped mum with cleaning the entire house.

It means I don’t have so much time for my NaNo today, but luckily I’m going to write for four hours (or more) between 12.00 and 16.00. It’s strange to be inside of the empty school. Others are in concert, but I just skipped it, because I’ve seen it before… three times. And now I have time to write, and watch a few episodes of Heroes.

And, the best thing is, that I’ve the whole building just my own. ^^ I can walk around in the school library, dance around in the empty corridors and use the encyclopedias for my story. It’s actually nice. One of my dreams is to stay up for one night in library. This feels a bit same as it might.
