..I'm no good at them these last few weeks. I'm very busy trying to solve everything here, so that usually causes a sort of creative death So everyone; I probably won't be submitting anything for some time!

I got tagged by the lovely
And I guess I was maybe sort of forced to tag as well!
...and then the lovely decided to tag me as well..with the same tag..so I guess I'll just have to do this twice?! Which makes a list of 16 things and 16 people to tag *slams head into wall* Gah. *Laziness*

So here are the rules:
~1. Post these rules.
~2. Each tagged person must post 8 things about their self on their journal.
~3. At the end, you have to choose and tag 8 people and post their icons on the same journal.
~4. Go to their pages and send a message saying you tagged them.
~5. No tag-backs.

Hmmm...eight things about me...let's not freak everyone out too much..I'll try to keep the randomness to a minimum xD

1. I have a Japanese nightingale named Zingie
2. I'm learning Finnish purely because I accidentally switched out navigation system to the language and thought it sounded weird but pretty. Plus, I've never heard a weirder swearword than "Perkele"
3. I play harp & guitar and sing, but the thing I'd like to learn the most is to play drumms...mauahhaa...the neighbours fear me
4. I have a fairly weird sense of humor
5. I love rollercoasters. The higher, the faster, the better!
6. My favorite song is Razorblade Kiss by HIM, and that's been that way since..about 1 year now..don't think it'll soon change!
7. I don't want to learn Finnish so bad because that band happens to be Finnish, I'm no real fangirl, though it's sometimes fun to behave hyper about something. Like LOTR.
8. Actually, one of the reasons why I want to learn Finnish is because the almighty JRR Tolkien used it as a base for Quenya xD
9. I collect good lyrics
10. I submit my own lyrics for my songs on DevArt as "poetry", which may explain the crappyness xD
11. I have an enormous "inspiration book" in which I put the randomest of random things that inspire me..pages from books, pictures, lyrics, music sheets...random stuff
12. I love silk things. It's shiny, beautiful, soft and sensual.
13. I'm a Scorpio, and though I don't believe in horoscopes, it accidentally completely fits me
14. I'm cynical
15. Try to live every second passionately
16. Love my friends with all I have

*sits back exhausted* So..now the tagging... Muahahaha

I hereby tag..




Pffft. tagging = torture for a procrastnation addict

...from a holiday It was...busy, active, gave me new energy. Even I got a bit of a tan (nothing short of a miracle: I never get sunburned, but don't usually tan either. My skin seems to think looking like a porcelain doll is still fashionable) I spent a lot of time with my two aunts, which was a nice change. My mum is sane in her very own way, but her worldview is so radically different from mine...we always disagree. And aside from that, she's more of a moody artist than the sort of mum you go shopping with. My aunts are the opposite. Very down-to-earth, realistic, adventurous and curious instead of dreamy and passive. They really help me with a lot of things, like going on a windsurfing camp this summer. Really looking forward to that. Also, they're way more relaxed about the whole religion thing me and my mum always have rows about, aka, they don't think I worship the devil, and don't feel the dire need to mention I'm going to die about 10x a day.
May have to do with them being sorta a mixture of trad. catholic and very pagan, haha. As in, they like the symbolism of the church, and feel free to use it because Mary is a old pagan goddess anyway, just baptized and called Mary for easy-use-without-the-risc-of-being-killed-by-the-church. Medieval people had so much fantasy. Anyway, they're not really religious...they have their own eclectic believes, but they don't exactly determine their daily behaviour (logically, since they don't actually have a religion, just a philosophy, without set rules)...and that makes it so calming to be around them. For once, I don't have to be careful not to start another preaching, or not to hurt any feelings. It's great. I stopped feeling guilty completely, finally, this week. I'm now finally able to completely love my mum again, without it hurting myself too much with it. It's still hard at times, but I'll hold on. The fact that she's in a sect is just something I'll have to deal with, it's her choice. But never mine.
