I could almost say I've forgotten all about blogging this summer. On occasion the thought would enter my mind ("Hey, I have a blog. Perhaps I should actually write to it?") and then desert me with equal speed. It all just slips my mind.
 
Many things have done that to me this summer. I should be doing a lot of things. As it seems, I'm not. I spend my time lazying about with my sisters or boyfriend, or playing Final Fantasy. I'm not complaining about that life-style choice, but there's this feeling of guilt because I should actually be doing something else. Nagging guilt over things undone is not the way to spend one's summer holiday, full of good opportunities of lazying about.
 
I should be doing this portfolio page for school. I should be doing mobile logos for the place where I went to work practice (I'm getting paid after the summer, or I would get paid if I actually did something). They're prepared to accept about a hundred logos. So far I've done a little over ten. Hey, they don't mind if I don't send a hundred, but it doesn't seem to be worth the trouble to only do ten and get paid accordingly, now that I have this chance.
 
Remind me that next summer I should do nothing.
 
Or then I should do everything right away, and blissfully lazy about the rest of the way. 
  
Well, at least I got a new monitor. It isn't actually (or in any way) new, perhaps 'another' would be a better word, since this is my big sister's old monitor. But it is a working one, and I could ask no more. Well, the next thing I could ask is a computer with a more than 2 Gb hard-drive. I mean, face it, MP3 players have bigger hard-drives than my computer. So it is good that my boyfriend has a better computer, which I am (note: also currently) hogging.
 
Harry Potter finally makes its way to Finland on fourth of August. Yes, I know. What the hell took so long? Movies don't take so long to travel on these modern days. Perhaps it lost its luggage or something. I mean, Spiderman 2 (which I, btw, saw last night) came here the week after it came out in the USA.  Is there some horrible secret society that wanted to stop me from seeing HP3 when it came out? At least I'm going to the preview screening on the third of August. They are showing the other movies that day also, but they weren't that good, so I don't need to go see them again.
 
And this has nothing to do with nothing: You Americans out there, could you tell me what a Twinkie is? Everyone eats Twinkies in American movies or TV series. What's the deal?
 
And why has Blogger suddenly become this ugly?
 
Hey, this blogging thing seems actually nice. Perhaps I should do this more often. Perhaps next time I'll be more coherent.
