Vagunisaatja: teine vagun

suurim prohmakas - ei kommenteeri ka enam
suurim kordaminek - ega mööda külgi jookse midagi maha, saati siis veel sihilik õppimine
parim eesti tutvus – ei tea kas saab tutvuseks nimetada, kui ma isegi tema nime ei tea
parim muu tutvus – taaskord mõned vahvad fiktsionaalsed karakterid
halvim eesti tutvus – igasugused suvakad, kes ligi ronivad (päriselt või võrkupidi)
halvim muu tutvus – Facebookibrasiillasi ei teagi nagu
lemmik telefonikõne – lootustandvaid kandidaate oli
aasta lause – "Mediocre people do exceptional things all the time." Kah lootusrikas, ütleksin.
aasta kõige lollim küsimus – "Kes see Monika on?"
minu kõige lollim sõnaaps – kvaliteetlollust justkui polegi, küll aga on kvantiteeti liiga ohtralt
lemmikvoodikaaslane – võib-olla padi, lehest just lugesin, et inimesed, kes üksi magavad, võiksid voodis hoida lisapatja, siis on rõõmsam vms :D
lemmikfilm - "An Education"
lemmikraamat - Anne B. Ragde "Berliini paplid" (kui dramaatilisust ei karda, siis soovitan)
suurim ettevõtmine – ühel päeval keerasin voodi lõpuks ometi õigetpidi
lemmiktelesari – "True blood", "Glee", "Klassi" jätk
suurim rõõm – valged ööd
suurimad pisarad – teave läbimõõdust endiselt puudub, mulle see ruumiliste objektidega osa matemaatikas üdiselt ei istunud, rohkem nagu algebrasõbralik alati olnud
suurim üllataja – väga suurt üllatajat juskui ei teagi
kõige khuulim koht – nood kiigud laululava taga
kõige khuulim hommik – selline, kus lambist vara üles ärkasin, aga tunne ikka reibas oli
kõige halvem hommik – see, mis ennast liiga kaua oodata lasi
kõige khuulim kink – mõningad raamatud
parim kohvikaaslane – pülgalt tulev muusika
kõige kallimad – hm, kas see küsimus on siin selle ideega, et need inimesed peaksid aastati muutuma?
kõige khuulim kooliaine – hirv. Ega väga variante pole. Pedagoogiline praktika.
suurim shokk – parem ei tuleta meelde
parim laul – OK Go "Oh lately it's so quiet"
kõige parem koht – see, kuhu ma tahaks minna
parasiitsõna - kirjutaks küll siia, aga ei saa, sest ametlikult ma ei ropenda.
leid – Benelux on nagu BElgium, NEtherlands, LUXemburg. Lisaks ka see, et Liisi Koiksoni eesnimi on LIISI. Või siis see, et kui YT-s seal paremal pool ribal video peale tekkivale plussmärgile vajutada, lisab see video vaatamisjärjekorda- tõesti noh, mõni päev tagasi sain teada.
drama queen - sel aastal võin mitmetega jagada, kes aga soovivad
parim kuu - veebruar, aprill
läbikukkunud idee – ei hakka
parim sms – Merilin saatis mõningaid päris häid tsitaate seebikast, näiteks "Kuidas sa julged minusse puutuda, sa vana kuuseriisikas!"
räigeim stoori – vampiirid
aasta jook - kohv, kofeiinivaba tee
aasta avastus – tennis polegi igav mäng + vt leid
kõige mõttetum tegu - vaidlemine nendega, kellega ei saa vaielda

Mul on puuga pilt

Käisin, niisiis, praegu tänase sünnipäevalise Facebooki seinale kirjutamas ja panin tähele huvitavat asja. Seal figureeris inimesi, kelle profiilipildiks oli pilt ülikooli lõpetamiselt (seinaomanik ise ka sealhulgas). Aga eile sattusin ühe sama aastakäigu inimese profiili peale ja tema sõprade nimekirja vaadates leidsin hunniku neid, kelle profiilipildiks oli mõni pilt oma pulmadest (see inimene ise kaasa arvatud). Täitsa huvitav. Tahaks kohe mingeid järeldusi teha ja inimesi selle järgi kastidesse ajada. Aga ei aja ka, lihtsalt selline tähelepanek.

Kõige parem lause

1. Lemmikbänd? Ükskõik milline paljudest.
2. Mida sa suitsetad? Midagi ma ei suitseta. Tahaks siin praegu vaimukalt kasutada väljendit “välja suitsetama”, aga ei tule kohe head nalja pähe.

7. Kas sa tahad abielluda? Päris huvitavalt küsitud. Nimekirjast “Asjad, mida ma kindlasti tahan teha” abiellumist ma kardan et ei leia küll.
8. Järgmine kontsert, kuhu plaanid minna? Pole planeerija.

Miks kusagilt "Für Elise" kostab?

Juhtusin kontserdile (täitsa hea, kui niimoodi "juhtuda" saab). No vot, istusin siis seal ja mõtlesin, et oh, äge, aga siis kargas pähe, et ega tegelikult ei oskagi suurt muud öelda. Meeldigu kui palju tahes, ma ei valda kaunisõnalisi muusikakirjeldusi ütlemaks, miks siis on nii äge. Teisalt muidugi pole ka ju mingi kriitik, ehk piisabki, kui öelda et nii äge, sest mul oli hea tunne kuulata. (Aga võib-olla lihtsalt ei viitsi piisavalt mõelda.)

Pianistsolist oli natuke lõunamaisem mees kui eestlased ja musitas lille lavale toonud tüdrukuga (see viisakusvärk põskedega st). Eks tulnud minulgi meelde kauged ajad, kui lilleõiega lavale sai satutud. Mõtlesin, mida ma oleks teinud, kui keegi oleks oma põsega minu oma ligi tulnud. Lava peal. Siises. Võib-olla polekski midagi enneolematut juhtunud, sest mis sa ikka teed, ära ei jookse ju. Lihtsalt et...ei tulnud iial selle pealegi, et midagi sellist võiks üldse ette tulla. Hea ka, et ei tulnud. Ei, ma mitte paha pärast, lihtsalt eestlasena pole harjunud säärase asjaga.

Muuseas täitsa huvitav on istuda esimestes ridades säärastel kontsertidel, ma polnudki varem olnud. Igasuguseid asju paneb tähele. Seda, kuidas üks vend suht oma pilli peal lösutab, samas kui teine pressib endal vaata et pisara välja. Või seda, kuidas sama pilli mängivad inimesed teevad samaaegselt täpselt sama liigutust, aga näevad sealjuures täiesti erinevad välja. Ühesõnaga tundub nagu mõni elaks asja rohkem läbi. Ainult selle põhjal, mis inimesest välja paistab, ei maksa seda muidugi tegelikult otsustada. Jah, ja siis on veel igasugused muud detailid. Muusikud musitseerimas (kui kasutada üht minu "lemmiksõnadest").

Päevakajaliselt väljendudes tuleb tõdeda, et tšellistide hulgas oli mõnigi tükk lükatavat lund.

Q&A

Küsimus: Millal on pülgal enim K ja L-iga algavaid bände?
Vastus: Siis, kui sa tahad kuulata midagi, mis algab M-iga.

Laevad

Täiega shipin Merilini ja Oliver-Steni "Õnne 13"-st.

(Armastusel) kummalised teed

Keegi oli Kaarsilla läheduses kõnniteele kirjutanud Armastus. Just niimoodi joon all ja punkt lõpus. Et armastus on tähtis ja lõplik? Ilusa käekirjaga oli, see mulle meeldis.

Mantlisiil ma ütlen, mantlisiil.

Klope

Praegu avastasin, et on teatavat sorti muusika, mida mina nimetaksin jalaväristamismuusikaks. Tähendab et sellel on sihuke rütm, mis paneb jalga väristama. Coldplay näiteks on üks bänd, kellel on hunnik selliseid lugusid. Kurikuulus Kings of Leoni "Use Somebody" ka. Rütm on nagu siuke kiire tõk-tõk-tõk-tõk-tõk ja sellepärast tulebki jalga ainult väristada, sest nõksutada ega kiigutada teda lihtsalt ei jõua siukse tempo juures.

Otse elust #n

Järgneb hulk tsitaate ühelt 73-aastaselt(muidugi 73, mitte näiteks 72 või 74) mehelt, kes oma mõtteid mitte endale hoida ei tahtnud. Ja kuivõrd ta nii kõva häälega rääkis ja mul üleskirjutamisvõimalus oli, siis loodan, et ta ei pahanda. Onu suhtes midagi halba ei mõtle, las tema arvab, mida tahab. Lausete rohkuse poolest võiks arvata, et kaua aega kuulasin seda juttu, aga tegelt ainult mingi alla 10 minuti. Ja pooli asju ei jõudnudki tegelt üles kirjutada. Igal juhul väga huvitava lühiülevaate sai sellest, kuidas üks sihuke mees asju näeb.

"Eesti rahvas on ära segatud. Oota-oota, hiinlane tuleb ka veel ära siia. Ansipil on juba lepingud tehtud."

"Ega te eile ei vaadanud seda Võsa Petsi?"
"Ikka vaatasin."*
"No kurat, igal pool tehakse inimestele liiga."

"On, mis see Võsa Pets muidu on, aga hakkaja mees on."
"Muidugi."*

"Puhas poiss ja tehtud poiss ja Brüsselis ka veel." (S.Kallase kohta)

"Mina ei ütle muud midagi kui et las röövivad neid pankasid."

"Ja Hiinast tuleb nüüd nii palju s***a, et pole elu näinud enne nii palju s***a. Tolmuimejaid ja kohvimasinaid..."

"Leivapäts on 23 krooni juba, võta Tallinna leib. No saepuruleib on 15 krooni. Nagu Saksa ajal oli saepuruleib, see neljakandiline."

"Põllumajandusega on ju niske lugu, et ongi surm peal juba põllumajandusel."

"A muidu ei ole seal telekas mitte kui midagi. Neid kuradi seebikaid ma vihkan. Üks nutt ja naer ja lapsetegemine."

"Poliitika ongi läbi."

*- ütles naisterahvas, kellega vestlus käis.

Lisamärkus

Olles viimased paar kuud ainult telliseid lugenud, on suhteliselt kummaline hoida käes 200-leheküljelist tillukest raamatut, mida ma tõepoolest jaksangi ühes ülestõstetud käes hoida kauem kui paar minutit.

"Joosepile oli ikka tundunud, et isal oli vähe sõnu. Ta oleks neid justkui kokku hoidnud. Nagu oleks tal neid olnud kasutada piiratud hulgal. Joosep kujutles mõnikord õhtuti, et isa hoiab sõnu magamistoa suures kapis - kui kapp tühjaks saab, peab isa surema. Seetõttu ei raisanud isa sõnu. Ta ütles seda, mida olukord nõudis, ei silpigi rohkem."

Jan Kaus "Hetk"

Mulle meeldib see mõte sõnadekapist. Et kõik, mida sa elu jooksul ütled, tuleb sealt. Mõnel on suur seinakapp, mõnel kummut, mõnel mingi pisike laegas. Heh, praegu tuli mingi haige kujutluspilt sellest, kuidas enne lapse rääkimahakkamist toimub siuke tseremoniaalne kapivõtme üleandmine. Ainult ei tea, kes see võtmetega kunn siis võiks olla, kes neid jagab. Indias näib olevat kõnejumalanna olemas. Vac on nimi. Noh, India lapsed saavad siis ehk tema käest oma võtmekesed.

And then we continued blissfully into this small but perfect piece of our forever.*

Lõpetasin hommikul "Videviku" tetraloogia viimase osaga. Kokku veidi vähem kui 2500 lehekülge. Mine küsi miks, kui juba lugema hakates on teada, et tõenäoliselt väärtkirjandusega tegu pole. Samas on 2010. aasta (lugemisaasta, I might add) suures osas möödunud sopakirjanduse tähe all. (Mõningate meeldivate eranditega küll õnneks, sest ega saa ju lasta ajul päris ära pehmeneda.) Tegelikult vist sellepärast lugesin, et tahtsin teada, mis seal siis on, mis seda hullustust tekitab.

Raamatud...tjah, olid halvad. Peategelane polnud just suurem asi kangelane (minu silmis vähemalt), pahad polnud suuremad asjad pahad ja idee tundus natuke liiga pinnapealne ja korralikult läbi mõtlemata. Aga teisest küljest..igav ju polnud, teema jooksis ja leheküljed ka. Seega üks punkt sellest, milline noortekirjandus võiks olla, täideti täitsa ära. Neljas raamat oli huvitavuse osas siiski suur erand, sest sellest tuli end lausa läbi närida, säärane jama ja jahumine käis üle poole raamatust. Algul oli vähemalt porrisugemeid, aga hiljem polnud sedagi. Mine võta kinni, millest nad seal lausa kaks filmi välja kavatsevad venitada. Rääkides sama sarja filmidest muide, tuleb möönda tõika, et raamatud, nii halvad, kui nad ka on, teevad filmidele silmad ette.

Ma mõtlen, et 10 aastat tagasi mulle oleks meeldinud see sari. On arusaadav küll, miks tänasele 14-aastasele ehk meeldibki. Milliseid järeldusi ta seal toimuvast ja "kangelanna" mõtteviisist/-maailmast teeb, on muidugi iseküsimus.

*See on viimase raamatu sulajuustune viimane lause. Õnnelik lõpp. Ootamatu, ma tean.

"I like traffic lights, I like traffic lights..." *

Huvitav on seista valgusfoori juures, mis rohelise tule näitamisega keskmisest rohkem aega võtab. Teisel pool teed seisvad inimesed pakuvad teinekord mõnusalt aegaviitvat vaatepilti. Mõni räägib kõrvalolijaga juttu, mõni vahib ringi, mõni muutub närviliseks, mõni muigab sinu poole vaadates nagu mõtleks et "näed, passime nüüd siin, sina ühel, mina teisel pool teed". Käitumisuuringuid saaks teha sellest, kuidas inimesed igapäevases enda kontrollile mitte alluvas olukorras käituvad. Foorivärk võiks olla midagi sarnast sellele, kui arvuti venib näiteks.

Siin väike video sellest, mida autojuht mr Bean punase tulega tegi.

Hunnik kasutuid fakte. Varastasin siit. Häirivalt aeglane lehekülg oli.

Tak, lauseküsitluse vastused on siin:

"Kunst on meile antud selleks, et mitte tegelikkuse kätte ära surra." (L.Priimägi) - 3
"Naine on vesi - selge, puhas ja igavene. Mehed on maitseained sajandi supi sees." (D.Kareva) - 3
"Võib-olla ongi üheks sõpruse tunnuseks see, et sõbraga koos ka igavust võidakse tunda ja taluda." (K.Ristikivi "Rohtaed") - 2
"Kui 20.sajandi üle ei naera, siis tuleb end maha lasta." (E.M.Remarque "Kolm sõpra") - 2
"Vesi on hea. Kui ma peaksin kõikide asjade vahel valima, valiksin ma üsna kindlasti vee." (E.Loe "Naiiv.Super.") - 0

Viimane ei saanudki ühtki häält. Selle eest see raamat on üks nupsimaid raamatuid üldse. Eriti mõned kohad.

Eile tuli mingit kaudu meelde, et pole siseministeeriumi kodukat ammu külastanud. Muidu ikka käisin seal eesnimede statistikat vaatamas. Läksin vaatasin siis nüüd üle. Ega ei ole palju muutunud, septembris olid Oliver ja Sandra kõige popimad. Ja eelmisel aastal igas kuus umbes 2 uut Kaisat. (Oluline info, ma olen kindel.)

Aga eelmise aastaga seoses ka järjekordne küsimus. Valisin mõningad (vähemalt Eestis) mulle tundmatud poisinimed, mida kõiki 2009. aastal viiele lapsele pandi. Nii et sel aastal on 1. sünnipäeva tähistanud või tähistamas muuhulgas 5 Devonit. Nunuh.

Laulukarussell käib

Mingi kummalise juhuse läbi veendusin ühel päeval, et selle laulu algus on mul endiselt täiesti peas, kuigi pole kunagi mingi ülisuur fänn isegi olnud. All Saints, muidugi, oli ikka ägedam kui mõned muud naistebändid.

Teemaga Briti saartel olles tuleb mainida, et sealset päritolu inimestel on näitlejageeni tihtipeale rohkem kui nende sama keelt rääkivatel Atlandi-tagustel sõpradel. See on umbes nagu see, et igast ägedad lauljad, keda terve elu oled ameeriklasteks pidanud, on tegelikult kanadalased. No hate intended.

Jah, ja muusikast rääkides, ükspäev mõtlesin sellele, et muusika juures on kõige olulisem muusika ise ja see, mis tunde see minus tekitab. Ehk siis mind eriti ei huvita, kes see laulja seal on või laulu autor või milline video on. Ehk kuulama hakates vaatan korra kusagilt, et ahah, siukese nimega inimene ja näe, Londonis laulab, aga siuke üldine muusikatrivia nagu millegipärast ei tõmba. Kui muidugi on mingi eriti hullultäge tüüp...või kui on eriti enneolematud videod... Kahju muidugi sellisest tendentsist, kindlasti oleks huvitavad teadmised.

Eile Sporcle'is hullates lahendasin mingit anagrammidega mõistatust. Lapsepõlv tuli meelde, ristsõnavihikutes olid alati ka need. Igal juhul hakkasin naljaviluks siis mõningatest nimedest ise anagramme tegema. Mind tabas kahjutunne, et lugupeetud elukaaslase perekonnanimes pole ühe t asemel u, sest muidu saaks tema nimest täpselt Tuhkatriinu kokku. See-eest leidsin, et kõrvaltoas vildib Iiri lumekask N, kirjanurga kommentaatorite hulgas aga figureerivad Piia T. Jumal ja Raili I. Kass, nagu ka Mr. Mairüü ja EÜE EL-türm (see on EÜE euronõutele vastav vangla, niisiis). Minu isiklik lemmikleid: K.Autoaknad, ka kohatine sõnavõtja.
Jah, sellega ma eile öösel liiga hilja tegelesingi.

Ving

Miks ei ole telekas ühtegi vahvat mälumängusaadet? Mingid õnnetud sekundisaated ainult. Pole ei eriti huvitavad ega kaasa elama panevad. Lisaks on saatejuht seal üleliigne ja häirivalt tihti sama juttu korrutav. Kunagi olid kaunid ajad, kui "Kuldvillak" veel esmaspäeviti ekraanidel sädeles. Oli hariv ja põnev. (Milline draama, kui lõppmängus keegi vastusele "mis/kes on" ette unustas kirjutada!)

Ja miks on telekas kogu aeg see mees, kes "Erinevus rikastab" kampaaniale vastu räägib ja mingeid omi igivanal ajalool põhinevaid teooriaid tõestada püüab. Hea et ikka hipidest pääsesime. Hirv, ma ütlen. Teisest küljest muidugi... kui erinevus rikastab, ja tema on ju (nt minust) erinev, ju ta siis rikastab ka.

Kao minema, sa tärgeldatud aluspükstega traagik!

Eile nägin poe uksel noormeest, kes oli saia ostnud ja selle seest tühjaks söönud. Kah idee. Endal käisid asjad pigem teistpidi tavaliselt ehk siis krõbe leivakoorik langes ohvriks. Võib-olla see poiss ka muidugi lihtsalt jättis parima osa viimaseks, ma ka vahepeal jätan, näiteks kui lihatükk on, siis see läheb viimasena, sest...jah, ta on kõige parem. Aga võib-olla muidugi talle lihtsalt meeldiski saia sisu ja sellepärast sõi seda. Lihtne variant ka täiesti võimalik.

Oo, ja ühte väga ägedat paari nägin ka. Mees oli äge ja naine oli äge ja koos olid nad veel kordi ägedamad kui eraldi olnud oleks. Mehe lemmikraamat võiks olla "Krahv Monte Cristo" ja naine õmbleks ise köögikardinad. Jah, kunagi sai harrastatud seda mängu, et võtad kusagilt mingi suvalise pildi ja mõtled talle elu välja, eks tänaval või ju samamoodi teha.

Kuidnüüdkuidnüüd, Lindgreni-nädal on lõppenud ja tulemused siin:

Emil (Vahtramäelt) - 3 häält
Pipi Pikksukk - 3
Tjorven - 3
Kalle Blomkvist - 1
Rasmus (hulgub) - 1
Karlsson (katuselt) - 0

Kas keegi veel tahaks kirjutada Pipi Piksuk? Mina hääletasin Emili poolt, sest Emil oli naljakas. Ja kunagi väiksena, kui ma haige olin...või oli Merilin haige...keegi igal juhul oli haige, siis oli nii hea seda lugeda. Supitirinad ja lipuvardad. Kunagi mul oli Pipi täisnimi peas...Pipilota Viktuaalia (?) Rullkardiina .... Eefraimi tütar Pikksukk. Mingi selline.

Panin uue küsimuse ka püsti, mingid lambid laused. Lõin oma igivana tsitaadivihiku lahti ja leidsin. Selle postituse pealkirja leidsin ka sealt, too käis küll astroloogia rubriigi alla. Peaks olema lause Neitsi solvamiseks. Pole katsetanud, ei tea, kas töötab.

Cool post about the coolest people*

There are some people who just ooze cool. Example: the best scene of this season's True Blood- Russell on TV! (The ending is really the coolest cherry on the yummiest cake.) Denis O'Hare. Like him everywhere I see him. He's just so cool I'd like to...hmm, do something, can't think what right now.

Then there's Jane Lynch, the coolest woman on TV. Here's her version of Madonna's "Vogue" on Glee - the coolest scene/video in the series so far.

So, to put it short, I think those people are really cool.

*- this is not an ironic post, I mean what I say. The word cool is used so often to make my point very clear.

Lähme kimbutame mõned vihad

Here are the results to this week's poll:

Kimbutama - 4 votes (1 of which was my own proud little vote :)
Tuututama - 3
Undama - 3
Nuhtlema -2
Punnima - 1
Lõõpima - 0

Yeawell, I guess "lõõpima" doesn't sound that appealing. Unless you're actually doing it. Yes, I think out of these words "lõõpima" is definitely the most enjoyable one to do with "tuututama" coming as close second. Depends, of course, on what exactly you think that word means... Well, but now please do pick your fave in the new poll :)

Who knew

Until today I had never had the idea to insert my name to Wiki search. Now that I have, I found out 2 interesting facts:

Kaisa is the Finnish version of Russian pyramide, a billiard game
Kaisa is a village in Leisi, Saaremaa

So, there are places in Estonia for both my forename and surname. Maybe I should make it a goal to visit all of them...Saaremaa does sound more calling now ;)

The animal songs

I looked through my music library and found more than 50 animal(a very broad meaning of the word) songs. There were several songs about butterflies, cats and nightingales but about sheep and flies as well. Also, Kriminaalne Elevant seems to be obsessed with animals- they have 9 songs with some animal in it. (Not mentioning the band's name itself.)

Here's my top 20 of animal songs (top 50 surely would've been too much;).

20. Tom Jones - What's new pussycat (who could resist young mr Jones? :P)
19. Sondre Lerche and the Faces Down Quartet - Nightingales
18.Kriminaalne Elevant - Päikse jänku
17. Sia - Butterflies
16. Kalmer Tennossaar - Konna kosjad
15. Kriminaalne Elevant - Kondori vend
14. Kriminaalne Elevant - Ööbik öögib köögis
13. Jaan Tätte - Hülgeviga
12. Kriminaalne Elevant - Ahvi armastus
11. OK Go - Oh my little kitten
10. Moby - Spiders
9. Kriminaalne Elevant - Võlurkass
8. Joni Mitchell - Song to a seagull
7. Ruja - Luigelaul
6. OK Go - Lovecats
5. The Beatles - Blackbird
4. Katie Noonan - Blackbird
3. The Cure - Lovecats
2. Pastacas - Must orav
1. Olav Ehala - Lambalaul (there's too much I like about this song to put it anywhere below number 1)

Nouns, part 2 + verbs

So, poll #1 is closed and the results are rather surprising for me. Here's how it ended up.

nuustik - 4 votes

türben - 3
hampelmann - 2
praguul - 1
tarikas - 1
võrr - 0

Who knew there's so much love for nuustik out there? And so few people who appreciate the wonderful r-s of võrr. Somehow I thought that hampelmann could be the one ending up with no votes... Well, it's good that things ended up unexpected.

There's a new poll up, this time it's verbs that sound funny/weird/some fancy adjective to me.

The lamest lottery ticket ever

Usually when starting to scratch a lottery ticket the first things you see are zeroes, lots of them. To make you think you're gonna win loads of money of course. That was not the case with my lottery ticket today. No bigger number than 25? Come on!

Don't get me wrong, I'm very glad I actually won 10 kroons, it's more than I usually get :P

In other news: there are so many goofy-looking people on the streets...wearing cow costumes and wigs. Good for them. I mean, once in a while you just have to take that cow suit of yours out of the closet and make a few rounds in town, otherwise it's just gonna get old. Or get bugs in it. Good thing it'll never be out of fashion though cause I feel that one cow costume for a lifetime is quite enough.

Nouns

I had the urge to use this little opportunity they offer here in blogger so if you had time to pick your favourite in the poll you'll see in the right column I'd be happy as a puppy. It's not the most original of ideas but I'll try to improve poll by poll.

Don't read if you've just eaten

A movie I just watched made me think about something I've always wondered about: why do people need someone to hold their hair while they're throwing up? It has never made sense. Why can't I hold my own hair? I'm perfectly capable of it, it's not like I need my hands to throw up.

Or...why do hair even need to be held (by anybody) during that process? Do they really get on the way that much? Well, maybe I'm just viewing the whole thing too much based on myself, maybe people with big curly hair have a bigger problem with that.

But still, why would you even want somebody with you while you're doing that? I, personally, am very happy when I have the privilege to puke in the solitude of a bathroom, because, well, that's not always the case (read: motion sickness).

Now, about the movie. "Remember me" with the famous mr Pattinson. He was bearable, his character was too dramatic though. Not having seen spoilers before the movie, the end was pretty unexpected. I just don't know if I agree with (over)using this certain event in movies.

I liked the little sister the most. The actress was good as well as the storyline. And if there's one thing that really makes me want to !"##¤¤&¤/¤/#% it's mean school girls. A very relatable subject I think. Everyone has seen them, been a victim of them or been one of them.

I feel a longer speech on that particular topic forming in me so I'm gonna stop now before the vomit breaks out.

I have now seen the first Harry Potter movie. Can't say it changed my life but I think it's a good movie in it's own genre and for it's target audience. I liked the music. And I'm not opposed to the idea of watching the second movie if it's on tv this week.
There's a huge amount of ugly clothes out there in the world. They really make you think who would design such a thing, who would buy it and who would actually wear it. Well, it seems that all of those people exist. (That's totally only my opinion of course, I'm sure there's stuff in my closet that some people would say the same about.)
The neighbours are still doing the remont (the word is just too good not to use it). All the noisy things they do are so annoying that the whole situation just makes me laugh. Specially in the mornings.
In spite of the drilling (I think?) this morning I still slept so well today. Maybe it's because of the slightly lower temperature.
There's some kind of tivoli outside, it really helps you to keep up with the latest top 40 hits.
An obligatory "Oh, how I love the autumn" paragraph. I can smell it coming in the air and it just makes me feel so much more calm/in character/fitting in/some other good word.
I very much like the baristas (another cool word) in Coffee In. Wonder why they didn't get this "Kiida teenindajat" thing this year.
Why haven't I seen Twilight agendas anywhere? Maybe I wanna buy one.

Urban Dictionary meme

Urban Dictionary is a very useful page as I've found out. For each question, enter your answer into urbandictionary and write down the first answer you get.

1. Your Name: Kaisa

A strong person hailing from Finland who often stirs resentment in weak people because Kaisa is inherently self-determined and highly resistant to manipulation by small minds. Kaisa stands as a bright light in a difficult, dark world. Kaisa takes no crap from others and pursues her goals with quiet determination and never-wavering resilience.

Um...thank you?

2. Your Age: 24

24, The Jack Bauer Power Hour. The most entertainment you can stuff into a single day. Full of twists, turns, violence, and Elisha Cuthbert.

3. One Of Your Friends: Mari

one of the prettiest, smartest, cutest, evil, caring, creative, talented, true punk, psycho, rioting, magic-weilding, sick acting, cute fat cheeks, puts-a-smile-on-my-face, amazing and most beautiful girls ever. actually.. the only one of her kind.

You're welcome!

4. What You Should Be Doing: sleeping

To masturbate furiously in your room praying that your grandma doesn't come in.

So this is what they call it these days...

5. Your Favorite Color: dark orange

Orange girl

An orange girl is the blond arm prop (usually that of a mega chotch or bro) you usually see around bars or campus. She will have blinding white hair and dark orange skin caused by spray on tans. These are prototype trucker wives. They also have the IQ of a curious child.

6. Your Birthplace: Kohtla-Järve

Kohtla-Järve isn't defined yet.

This seems to have a meaning on many levels :P

7. Last Person You Talked To: Kristi

a woman i know who is incredibly sexy and i love her so much. she is the most amazing person alive and if you dont think so you deserve to die. amazingly there are some people who actually dont like her. but thats just because they're jealous and they're all asses anyway so no one cares about them. Kristi deserves everything in the world and id do anything for her. ill never leave her side and i'll always be her best friend.

8. Last Thing You Had To Drink: water

The 4th element required to summon Captain Planet

EARTH FIRE WIND WATER HEART

Heart? What?

9. Your Nickname: Kaie

Kaie katastrophe

scene queen; myspace/facebook addict; frequently dies hair; thick makeup; enjoys phrases such as; SO RAD, OMGSHHHHHH. EEK! YEEE BWOII. etc. quite cute.

Not quite.

Still no movie buff

Two movies yesterday. An Education. I liked it so much it made me want to squee and clap my hands and stomp my feet and tell the person next to me just how much I like it (which I did, several times, fortunately she was not a stranger). I think being a caffeine squirrel was a factor in causing those reactions too but still...it was screenplay by Nick Hornby and the story was so good and the actors were great and it was funny and cute and a little bit didactical maybe. And Rosamund Pike was there. If I liked women in that way, I think I'd be into her. Sarah Paulson as well. (That's your off-topic of the day.)

The second movie...the infamous Emmanuelle. Strange, strange thing. And I thought Twilight was funny.

Affirmation

The ongoing film festival led me back to this song and I thought I'd count how many of those statements I actually agree to. In the end it wasn't as easy as one would think it is.

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands (it happens, it happens)
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem
I believe I'm loved when I'm completely by myself alone (not the only time I'm loved though)

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love 'til you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul (if you can think of heart and soul as personality and character)
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold (I think they can't be compared that way, shoot me)
I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires

I believe forgiveness is the key to your own happiness
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed (all thoughts about what exactly that sentence means are very welcome, don't know if my version is right)
I believe that God does not endorse tv evangelists
I believe in love surviving death into eternity

And last but not least, I still like Savage Garden. Or like Miranda would say: "I love it, it's my thing, let it go."

The topic continues

Started reading a new book today and already on page 17 there's some gold:

"Kohtasin eile oma endist kooliõde pr. Kriisat. Ta kurtis, et elu olevat mõttetu, kuna pole lapsi. Kuid on siis mõtet omaette? On ajud - on mõte, pole ajusid - pole ka mõtet. Kuidas saaksid lapsed aju aset täita?

Ma ei mõista neid naisi. Oleksin rõõmus, kui saaksin lapsi, sest armastan neid. Kuid ma ei usu, et mu elul siis rohkem "mõtet" oleks. See tähendaks vaid mu egoismi suuremat rahuldamist ega mitte midagi muud."

Elo Tuglas. Tartu päevik 1928-1941.

Page 17 is one of the those pages they put a seal on in libraries. Who knows what page 51 will bring.

+25.7

Yesterday was a very significant day in my life. You know how sometimes before seeing a movie you think it's gonna be bad and it ends up being way better than expected? Well, that was not the case this time. I have now seen the first Twilight movie and it was so much worse than I thought. It was so bad it was funny. What exactly then?

Well, there was the heroine, a closeted emo girl (she so could've used some...a lot of black eye liner), really too dramatic.
Then, of course, the boy (who wore so much make up he looked like a creepy clown), speaking very much like a robot.
The two main characters together. They had only spoken something like 3 sentences to each other when all of a sudden we were supposed to believe there's this epic love between them. Eer...no. Didn't buy it in the beginning and am not buying it now. There was something between them though. Tension, I'd say. The monotone speech and constant "I'm gonna come"- faces they were making at each other certainly could make this a good example of a bad adult movie. (Now I'm interested in all the possible parodies out there:D)
Of course they were using this worn out love triangle where one of the guys is deep and intelligent (that's what we're supposed to think at least) and the other is a nature boy.
The vampires there were probably of a different breed than all the others in other vampire books/movies etc because the usual "rules" didn't seem to apply on them. (So the conclusion here is that even the most random True Blood vampires are so much cooler than the ones in this thing.)
The villain was brought in too late and didn't really look too intimidating.
The acting...well, there's a reason why the actors have only won Teen Choice awards and such. Don't see any Oscars on the horizon.
The first hour and 30 minutes were bad but funny, the last 30 minutes were bad and boring.
I'm sure there's more.

I'm so looking forward to seeing the next two parts. I guess it can only get more deliciously bad.

+15.9

So...here's an old topic. Every time I see it I just can't not say anything about it. Who are the parents who buy their children toy guns, why do they buy them and how exactly is that ok? Yes, I know, girls play home and boys play war (yeah, right) but how about not encouraging them to play war with weapons that look real. Not gonna get into psychology here since I don't really know that much about it. But I do agree it can't be all that good to a child's mind.

In addition to that, for me personally it's also just very creepy to walk on a street and suddenly see a kid carrying a gun. Am I supposed to think it's not real just because a child is holding it? Well, maybe I am paranoid..

Just noticed that these two songs go together so well :)

And there we have it- even with all the windows open there's not really anything resembling a draught. So I guess it's like it says in the newspaper, not much of a difference between Gambia and Kambja. Thank god for the fan (is that the word?) I bought for AL's birthday.

Yesterday I was reading some old e-mails and got to thinking about their meaning. If someone (in the future) would be reading those mails me and another person have exchanged what would be the conclusion he/she would make. About who those people were and what their ideas were. Of course it's not anything like analyzing the correspondence between Kreutzwald and Koidula (for example) but I think in a sense it might be even more interesting to find out what two usual people write about in their ordinary lives. Just thinking, you know.

Early mornings are not as calm as they should be.

I've just laid my eyes on the best career oppurtunity in...I don't know how long. Someone's actually looking for a mascot to an athletics competition. That's been my dream since the early teen years. I'm sure there'll be a big competition for the spot. With this weather... Too bad I'd need a car to apply for it.

And then there were 3

As my sports related ramblings were slowly taking over this blog I decided to move them to the other one. So now Truffe has a writing corner, a table corner and a sports corner. For the time being.

I was walking home and just passing a house with an open window when I heard cheers coming from there. That's one way I've never found out about a goal before. I was hoping it'd be Germany's goal and it was. But I'm glad I'm home now cause this is one dramatic game. And though I want Germany to win, I want them to win because they're better not because the judge has problems with vision.

In other news: this morning when I was crossing the big and oh-so-awful Sõpruse sild I happened to lay my eyes on the Narva mnt dorms, the green one precisely(beautiful shade of green in the morning sun btw), and suddenly I was hit by the fact that I'm not a student anymore. Maybe the acknowledgement is good for the future or something.

English takes over

This must be a historical day as from now on (for some time at least) Truffe kirjanurk will be brought to you in English. My apologies for all the grammatical and typing errors you're going to see but well...a girl has to do what a girl has to do. And at this point writing in English is necessary.

Ok, now continuing with the usual stuff. That would be Man of the Day. Another Swiss guy. It was already in winter when I got the idea that if I had a chance to hire someone as my personal mood therapist, I'd hire this guy. He doesn't even have to do anything special, just the way he usually behaves is good enough. It's great how he seems to be very sincere in his crazyness. And another thing I like about him is the fact that for me he's a rule breaker. Usually dorks/geeks (or however you call them) aren't that big in sports but he's one of the best (if not the very best) at what he does. I'd say that's rather hopeful. Maybe even I could be a ballerina some day?:D Anyways, today is Simon Ammann's 29th birthday and the pics are from here and here and here.

God, this English-thing is tiring. But I'm not giving up yet.

Vaatasin ka toda pulma ja mõte läks pidevalt sellele, kui kohutav oleks abielluda nii, et kogu maailm seda vaadata saab. Iik. Lihtsalt iik. Ja lisaks muidugi (suure tõenäosusega) hirmus väsitav tramburai (tervitamised, lehvitamised, kontserdilaadsed jms) sinna otsa. Aga eks ole inimesi, kes on sellega rohkem harjunud. Ja mida muud üle jääbki kui harjuda- kui muuta ei saa, siis võta asjast parim, kah hea põhimõte.

Romantikanoodiga kõrvalepõige: mulle meeldib, kuidas antud üritus tõestab, et ole kes oled, ikka võid saada selle, keda sina tahad. Tolle printsessi poolt vaadatuna just. Sest praegu on meil ju tänapäev, ja tänapäev on selles mõttes parem kui mõni eelnev päev.

Muidugi on sellest perekonnast rääkides MotD nagu varnast võtta. Hea, et Rootsis ei ela, muidu näeks seda soppa, mida ajakirjandus tema kohta ilmselt avaldab. (Ei saa muidugi eitada, et ma vahepeal Skandinaavia ajakirjandusel silma peal ei hoia...oda, kolm eitust on nüüd. Lühidalt: vahepeal vaatan Rootsi ja Norra ajalehti jms.) Inimesi distantsilt vaadata on mõnikord parem. Lisaks tuleb mälusopist meelde ühe (kunagise? varjusurmas?) Eesti erakonna plaan antud noormehega. Heheh. Ja kui juba tänapäevast juttu oli, siis olgu ka vastav pilt(pärineb siit). Prints tuleb neil päevil pigem ralliauto kui valge hobusega.

Uus rubriik hakkab üsna domineerivaks muutuma vist, aga ma lihtsalt pean. Sest tänane MotD on täitsa päeva mees ja tegelt juba teist korda, kuigi esimest korda ta ametlikult seda nimetust ei saanud. See, et ma näen siukest inimest siukses kohas (rõivalaenutus pmslt), ja tegelt ka see fakt, et ma ise seal viibisin, asetub minu nägemuses üsnagi valgustite rubriiki. See, et ma laste ninnunännutaja pole, ei takista mind fännamast isasid, kes nendega linna peal tiirutavad :) Üldse võiks vist seda lõiku praegu veel mitu kraadi fännitüdrukulikumalt kirjutada, aga ma hoian end tagasi.
Pilt pärineb siit.

Muu info: suhteliselt kummaline päev (heakummaline, va siis, kui jalad ära väsisid). Mul on nüüd uus raamat!
