Neiti diplomi-insinööri

Yup, that's what you can call me from now on... Yesterday they decided to let me graduate. Feeling quite happy about that actually. Should start working. I just wanted to tell you.
Oh yeah, and I'd like to know whose reading this blog of mine. So comment and let me know. I'm thinking just gini and A-V are reading this, but can't be sure of course.

Weekend

So I survived. At work, almost awake. The computer is calculating. So doing the work for me really.
The cruise then... I was planning on getting to know more about my co-workers, but I think they ended up learning more about me than I about them. Now I know why I haven't made new friends for a while. It's really weird when someone new gets to know you. Like they get in on your secrets. And then I sort of feel exposed. No specific secrets that I am now talking about, but generally. Suppose I wanted to keep it secret that I can drink them all under the table. And keep going all night and then wake up the next morning feeling fine. Smiling and dancing around. I must admit though, Stockholm did seem to move under my feet at times. But Gini explained that in her comment. Really I must have slept like 3 hours both nights on the boat.
The thing I really hate is those conversations you get into in the middle of the night in the cabins. That's how you really let yourself go and reveal those ideas of yourself that would better be left unknown to your co-workers (unless you start calling them your friends, which I'm thinking about). Those conversations rarely end with agreement on life issues. And I'm left thinking 'why does he/she think like that?' The big questions in life are the ones that define the people you can be friends with really and those should be discussed sober to avoid misunderstandings. This is really getting weird this post. I'll get to something concrete now.
So my work friends now think that I am a party animal. I can't say they're totally wrong. I guess I've just suppressed it for a while now. Well not at the karonkka (doctorate party) I went to recently though. Maybe I'm just a party animal when Jaakko is not there? That'd be weird, although with him I do have to pay attention to what he thinks. I would not go bum drinks from guys if he were there. I think bumming drinks (this time it was just water I asked for) is not bad, but he doesn't like me talking to other guys much. I do admit I would find it weird were he on the other side buying some girl a drink. But then if some poor girl just wanted water I'd expect he get it for them. It's like that time Hanna was here. I was asking these guys to carry her home since she was a bit drunk. Well two guys were like "I'm taken, so I can't". It's not like I was asking them to carry her home to their place. Then the single guy carried her. Um, this is not concrete again.
I bought a bottle of Bailey's. And Hallon Båtar for Jaakko.
Anniina's party was good. Samppa was there to my surprise. I guess she forgot to mention. It was a great surprise. :) Since I was weakened from two nights on a boat, I didn't drink much. So when everyone went to a club I stayed behind with him and we watched a Harry Potter movie. We also got the beds ready for everyone else and cleaned some glasses off the tables. I'm sure Anniina was happy about that. ;)
Now I feel I should get back to just watching my computer calculate. Really slow today. Like me I suppose. I'll have to ask for some work to do while the calculations are progressing. Like studying something.

Just cruising

Good day to post. Will have to work on this throughout the day though. I don't really have that much work to do. I'm learning still.
Well, the reason I'm actually writing is because we are going on a cruise to Stockholm with a couple of friends from work. A day in Stockholm and two nights on a boat. And of course straight from there to Tampere for Anniina's party. Good weekend coming up. Should get to know a whole different side of some of my co-workers. Some of them are also bringing their significant others. Should be interesting enough. And I hope to be in form on Saturday to represent the family at Anniina's party.
I had my fitness program updated yesterday. Just a little change, more lower body. That is to say to get buns of steel. ;) And to make snowboarding easier. Should really start the season soon. Just need snow to do it.
I was thinking about X-mas and whether to go to work on 27.-29. of December. I could really use the hours, but if something better comes up, let me know. In the lines of snowboarding or such. I will most certainly take the 27th off though.
Um, now I feel bad about writing at work. Later!

New name...

I'm bad at making big decisions. Well I usually make them when I'm drunk, hungover or otherwise out of my mind. I was hungover when I decided not to study biology anymore and that would be the biggest decision I've had to make during this millenium. The consequences are now so clear. I got stuck doing chemical engineering, I am graduating officially in a month or so, I got a job and they want me to work here forever. Apparently I am so extremely mathematical and logical, that they can't stop talking about it. I should really call the test place to maek sure they didn't confuse my results with somebody else's. Maybe I'll e-mail them tomorrow.
Anyhow, no big decicions to make anymore then on the line of work. Until I get to be somebody's boss. My boss told me that not everybody wants to be a boss. I was sort of surprised. I always thought I would be a boss. Might have something to do with our dad being one. Yes, very confusing. We had this big assessment today about my future hopes and stuff. I sort of said I just want to have fun. That's how far I really want to think about stuff. If I'm happy, it doesn't matter what I'm doing really. He scared me about work stress. I guess I might get some someday. Don't feel like it now thought. Since I'm so mathematic and logical I think I can cope. ;)
Yes, another work day over. Can't say what I do at work actually. u know, secrecy. But it's way logic and math requirering (I can't spell that...) And soon all our processes will be based on it. Hurrah! No pressure to get it right or anything....

Well, the bus is leaving. Later!

Book printed

Sorry for not writing. I've been sort of busy. Haven't even had time to go to the gym. So horribly busy.
But from now on no thoughts about school in my free time. Since I will not be going to school anymore. Everything is done. The book is being covered right now. This afternoon it will be over. 6 years fo studying will be over and done with. I feel sort of relieved. Well actually really relieved. I'm just waiting for some disaster to strike actually.
So it was father's day yesterday. Friday I was at this doctorate party. That was the best party for ages. I had so much fun. (And alcohol.) The thing is I didn't even have to pay for any of it. Well at the end I was so mad about my doctor friend buying me drinks I went and bought two other guys drinks, cause he wouldn't let me pay for his. It felt logical at the time. ;) I was home around five according to my friends who took the same cab. Jaakko got home later though. So we were both wasted. Fun night.
I wasn't that badly hung over the next day though. tired. extremely. I haven't had a good nights sleep for weeks. And by that I mean I always have to wake up to the alarm. Waking up naturally is what I am totally looking forwards to.
Good weekend in all respects. There were just these amazingly annoying hippies on the train. Well everyone knows you buy tickets in advance when it's fathers day weekend. They hadn't fo course. They were just loitering in the halls of the full train talking about I don't know what but seeming really important in the process. I couldn't read my book couse they were so loud. I tried blasting my mp3s but that didn't help. so I couldn't read or sleep. Damn hippies. I don't like to think I get annoyed easily, but when they started singing Suomen laulu in chorus out of tune I was totally broken. I wasn't the only one either. Jaakko was too. And he never gets annoyed. Next time we're flying. Or when my student discounts disappear in the spring well fly. It's only like 40 euro one way. And the train is like 36 if you're not a student. Crazy...
Should go eat now. Later!
