Dimrill Dale

I think I'm broken. I haven't felt like "internet" or "people", except for this forum I'm in. *sigh*

I'm sorry you people! It's absolutely nothing personal!

I think that I'm recovering, slowly, because yesterday I thought about a layout for evil-owl.com and today I almost turned on the Messenger. So hang in there. I'm not dead, just... bored.

(might have something to do with the fact that IRL I'm feeling bummed and depressed and what-have-you, because I really need a j-o-b. Like really need one. I feel like such a loser just sitting home and doing fuck-all *sigh* )

Yes I'm well aware that I'm like LATE with this, but hey: there were a record of 42 countries that I had to comment on. Some of them were so good that I thought I might run out of superlatives and to be honest? some were so terrible that I can't even stomach to think about them without falling into a state of near catatony repeating only the phrase "Why god, why?". So, to begin with the semifinalists who (mostly luckily) didn't make it to the final.

1. Does anyone know your password to your myspace?
I don't have a MySpace, but if I did, I bet Juk would know it. Since she knows my passes for every damn place. So go torture her if you want them.

2. Do you own an iPod?
No, but an equally cool mp3 player.

3. Who on your top 24 do you talk to most?
Top huh? Oh, MySpace thingies? Don't do MySpace.

Happy now? :D

I don't have five LJ friends, and I can't put the links to them like they should go (with the wee dude infron of them) because I'm stupid that way, but I tag </a></b></a>belewien and </a></b></a>rustlingragazza. Ok?

So the ESC… It was a blast, not because the quality of the songs would’ve been good, no, it was shittier than ever, I think (i always say that). It was a blast solely because Finland had the best song ever (out of the ones we’ve ever sent to the competition, that is), it got to the finals (which is unheard of) and most of all, IT WON! Goddamnit. Finland has never won the competition before. We have been participating for 45 or so years. So I think it was right that once we win, we do it with a huge amount of points. No one has ever scored that much in the competition. Ruslana, who won two years ago, got 260-something. Lordi got 292. We so rule.

Also I liked the stage. Most of all I liked it during Bosnia & Herzegovina’s Lejla, because the whole background was filled with stars. It was beautiful. I don’t like the Greeks that much, what comes to the shows. It always the same. “look, we have like so much history, like 3 billion years ago there were greeks, so that’s why we have all this ancient things here to show you because like, you didn’t know about our history and you know”. The presenters were quite relaxed. The only horrible thing was during the finals, when Maria had this dress on… Which basically didn’t fit too well and omg her nipple was showing. It was just embarrassing. D: Also I need to confess that during the voting in the semifinals, I had brief moment of insanity when I fell in love with Sakis Rouvas. But it was only a brief moment.

( Ok. On to the songs. I shall list them alphabetically. All of them. Deal with it. )

The fuck? I apparently cannot use any html in my entries? Okiedok. hence you get the stripped version. I shall see if I acn do anything about the links I had when I posted this on tehRika.de. *grunts* Man I'm stupid. *hides in a box*

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WIFEY!!!!11111 <3 <3 <3

Awwwww omg. How much am I in love with my bf? Liek-alot? Yup. The gig he played on Saturday was just bloody brilliant. You can imagine what the music is like, if the band is called Fuck, It's 80's XD There was a story of the gig in today's paper and according to that, everyone had been more than a bit O_o because the boys didn't play any heavy songs (yea except Paranoid as an encore) but instead went for the pop songs. I was laughing my ass off when Jani (the leadsinger) said before they played anything "So this a heavy-night. We thought we'd honor the theme by not playing any heavy at all" Needless to say there were a whole bunch of die-hard heavy-fans with Double-You-Tee-Ef -faces \o/

Anyways, I was the only one of my entourage (isn't it a trendy word to use really? yea ok not anymore but i like it, sue me) who didn't get soaked with $alcohol_drink. Rei got the first hit. Half a pint of beer down her back, by some Drunken!Idiot™. Tinttu got the second wave, only this time it was the bartender who poured a full pint on her back. Honest mistake, but the bartender was nice enough to offer Tinttu some reconciliation in the form of two beers and a cider. Hence: everyone of us got free drinks. \o/

Despite of the two incidents, we had fun, even tho the second band was a load of crap. (did i mention there were three bands playing? Helevetisti Itään, a cover-band doing covers of finnish band Kotiteollisuus, To The Darker Grounds, which is a local "pride" and then Fuck It's 80's) Yea, so To The Darker Grounds was SO bad. I mean the boys played well, no question of that, but the songs were just... ugh. Shite. (vittu ihan hirviää tuubaa, siis oikeasti) The first band was good, they played pretty damn strickt covers of the originals, but nevertheless they were good. And then Fuck It's 80's. Aw. The combination is just perfect in my opinion. There's 80's pop songs, that everyone knows and are cheesyliekomg. There's a band that has four members who can play their instruments damn well. There's the tongue-in-cheek factor and a bloody cute basist. The cute basist was a bit worried beforehand, since they only had trained four times before the gig. But I thought it went really well and we had a lot of fun, like everyone. Which is the most important thing in gigs like these. :D

Hehe. Sometime during the night Tinttu got all thoughtful and I was like what. She pointed at me and said "I just realized something that is rather unfair." I went huh? And she said "I just understood that you get to sleep with the basist tonight and you don't even have to make an effort. *poutface*" I was O_o for a second and then started laughing. And of course I had to msg Juk (who asked how the gig went later that evening when we were getting pizza) that I picked up the basist of Fuck It's 80's. *evolgrin*

I'm such a groupie. ;)

I was kinda hoping for Seahawks to win. For many reasons, really. Of which the fact that Steelers've won already four times (yea correct me if i'm wrong on the number, but whatever) isn't the least.

Keep your Terrible Towels. Pft. *grunts*

Happy 2006 to y'all. \o/
