Hear me, hear me!

In total the first week of radio was really nice and I got positive feedback even though I think I could've spent a little bit more time with my reports. BUT (there is always a but!) I was sick so I wasn't jumping for joy when I should've run around and make a poll. Once again, at least I did everything I was asked.

And even Monday went better than I thought it would. I was surprised how capable I actually am. Weird!

If I were to give myself some feedback, the positives and negatives would look like this:

+ I think I have good ideas
+ My busdriver report was awesome! Especially 'cause I made it in so little time and still it was great! (me and editing is... just... one... big... horror movie...)
+ I had listeners! Way to go girl!
+ I was quite well prepared for the show

- ...but you could always be prepared a little bit more ( I didn't have an idea when to speak about what and in the studio I was too nervous to think)
- Should use more time for the reports...
- I should challenge myself more

Ok, that's all I can think of now. I am sick. And I was supposed to host the Happy Hour-show TOMORROW but my voice is totally lost. Totally lost! I also have a little fever (37 says the thermometer and  I usually have something like 35-35.5).

For next week I should also do 3 different reports. I need to do Anni's food thing (but luckily it doesn't matter if I don't have my voice then), then one for ÄRSYTTÄÄ-show and one for Sohvaperunat. But I actually did the last one already. I wanted to interview my friend and I had to do that before she left today. Let's hope my voice comes back so I will just record the questions afterwards. I think the answers were usable but you never know...

What else? Nothing special. I did the IB English exams. They were rather easy but then again I didn't concentrate so maybe they will not even be qualified. Ha ha ha. I wrote something about a robot which was broke and drank beer. And something about a man who had another face on the back of his head and that was his brother. Actually I just realised that it had nothing to do with the subject I was trying to write about.... Oh well, it does if you are artistic enough!

My friends from Vantaa were here this weekend and we had a lot of fun! Ofcourse... Did a lot of stupid things etc but hey, LIFE IS! And it is quite awesome even though I'm sick and gonna be so useless next week and... yeah. Well, there's always some outcomes from stuff you do. It might come many years later but still. There is! Believe me!

The basic Friday evening @ Outokumpu

Being too negative!

I suppose I should look at my last post and then open it up a little bit.
Because I am a student and I am supposed to learnt something so if I'm just saying something is not working, it doesn't give you the feeling that I have learn anything. Right?

First about the jingle. I thought I put it to the memory stick but I guess I didn't? Need to do that tomorrow... I'm happy I made it even though it's stupid. And not in a good way. It just doesn't work. But the positive thing is that I made it. I said I would make it and I did. I didn't remember how to use pro tools but after all the anxiety I actually membered something... So. It's not all bad, is it?

The report... Well, I knew how to use the equipment. My questions were at first starting with the sentence "Do you..." so the person I was interviewing could answer just "yes" or "no" but that I realised before the interview and change the forms. I did learn something, you see! But still the interview is sounding like an interrogation. And it's boring as hell! Once again I could say "Hey I said I would make it and I did", I guess it does count a bit, doesn't it...? (Say "yes", pleeeeease!)
I'm thinking about doing it again but then again I don't think I can make it interesting 'cause I just don't have any touch for the subject. (Excuses, excuses, I'm just a shitty reporter, that's all) And as a plus I think my English is quite understandable but as a minus I need to practice so I don't use words which I use too much even when I'm writing my blog. (Words like 'so' and 'stuff').

Today I'm gonna surf on the internet and find all the stuff I wanna talk about tomorrow. I thought that it would be best on Monday to look back little bit and talk about the stuff that has happened during the weekend. We'll see how it goes.

I need to do food for the "Food for four for four euros"-thing today! But I'm still missing one person. Nobody wants to try my cookings... Not surprised though.

I think I just need to chill and not stress 'cause after all I am 'just' a first year student so you can't expect me to know anything... Right?

We'll see how it goes...

Going to host a radio show on Monday. 'Only' an hour so no panic. Yeah right...

Oh well, I love suicides.

Made a jingle for it and it's shit. Made a report for one show and that report is shit.
So if the show is going to be shit, as I believe it will, I have done a lot shitty things!
Actually, everything I've done would then be shit. How cool is that....!!!

This ship is going down, down, down....

BLEH!

I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired.

I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired.

No coffee in the morning

I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. 

I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. 

I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. 

I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. 

I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired.   

I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. 

I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired. I'm so tired.

 BLEH! 

Pills pills pills pills more pills and a little bit more.
Keeps you going, not for long!
The most awesome feeling when you understand nothing what happens around you. The most awesome feeling to be so tired that you're just gonna pass out. Especially when you're the kind of a person who never feels like that (when healthy).

Trying to keep thoughts together, push it through. Trying and trying but never quite getting there.

I'm so tired of being me.  Such a boring and lonely road.
Always welcome but hardly ever invited.

Bleh, I'm just pissed off 'cause I need to eat stupid medication which I'm not allowed to eat so the side affects are most awesome and everything goes just not-so-well because of all the sleepiness. Yippee! 

So don't call me, I'm not on this planet.

Tervehdi tervettä touhua

Koulussa tällä hetkellä menossa on - huomenna Loppiainen, mutta perjantaina jatkuu taas yhtä raikuvasti kuin muutenkin tällä viikolla - editointia. Eli Ammattistartin esittelyvideon editointia. Jälleen kerran olen suhteellisen pihalla, mutta eipä se nyt ole niin tarkkaa. Rasittaa (ja rasitti jo ennen koko homman aloittamista) ristiriita siitä ihanasta informatiivisesta-mutta-silti-ah-niin-ihanan-iskevästä-nuorille-suunnatusta-esittelyvideosta. Voihan tilaustyö! Ei voi muuta kommentoida.

Omalta osaltani - eli äänimiehen - osalta sanottakoon, että ihanpa kivasti on haastattelut tallentuneet. Yhdessä haastattelussa olisi kyllä voinut käyttää nappimikkiä. Nyt joka kerta, kun kyseisen henkilön haastattelu pärähtää ruutuun, kiristelen hampaitani ihanan tuuletushuminan takia. Mweh. Oppia ikä kaikki. 

On muuten hiukan haastavaa valita sopivaa musiikkia tuohon esittelyvideoon, kun vaihtoehtona on korni tai kornimpi vaikutelma. Mutta siinäkin tänään päädyttiin yhdenlaiseen päätökseen. 

Tulipa myös nuo kertojan repliikit tänään äänitettyä ja Fostex se se vasta on jännä vehje. Joka kerta, kun sen saa nokkansa eteen niin unohtaa aivan varmasti jonkun jutun... Tai niin ainakin allekirjoittanut, mutta onneksi ryhmätöiden vahvuuksiin lukeutuvat auttaminen ja kollektiivinen vitutus.

Muistin myös ilmottautua IB English-kurssin tentteihin tänään! JEE! Whii! Tuuletusta! Jonka lisäksi olen tullut lopputulokseen, että olen hankala ihminen. Ainiin ja on meikäläisellä myös "huono oppilas"-kriisi, kun tuntuu, etten tee mitään enkä osaa mitään saatika opi. Vaikka ei kai asia nyt ihan 100% niinkään ole... Mutta tuossa oikealla on kuva kultaharkosta. Toisin sanottuna kääreestä, joka sisältää 100% suklaata! Mukavan näköinen paketti. Ehkäpä tuo sisältö auttaa pääsemään yli kriisistä... Nähtäväksi jää.

Suunnitelmissa on tässä kevään mittaan kyhätä pientä kuunnelman poikasta Etnohirvien kuuliaisen nimen kasvattamiseksi. Jos et ole vielä tutustunut ensimmäiseen kyseenalaiseen kuunnelmapätkään, voit sivistää itseäsi painamalla tästä.

Jonka lisäksi olisi ollut minulla paljon kivempia suunnitelmia mihin käyttää tämän jakson viimeinen viikko kuin johonkin tekijänoikeus-kurssin suorittamiseen. Mömmömömömmöö. Sen näkee sitten mikä roikkuu ja missä ja miten ja silleesti.

Loppuun linkitän kuvan, jota olen kuolannut ja työpöytäni taustakuvaksikin varastanut. Oh!

Looking back to find the treasures

Wiggly waggly

 

Wobble, wobble, wiggly waggly tail!
Up and down it went,
Little too much it bent.

 

Poor beaver and it's wiggly waggly tail,
Now far away the beaver wants to sail.
It's a shame, oh, such a shame!
Maybe the mother is the one to blame?
Given birth to a beaver with a wiggly waggly tail,
fed him every morning with a snail.
A SNAIL? Yes, indeed!
A snail is a funny thing to eat.

 

Shall I stop or tell you more?
But the end is a little too hardcore!

 

The beaver made a boat with a sail
And - oh yes! - the sail
was made out of his mother's tail.
It wiggled and waggled in the air
And if you ask me - it was quite fair.

Opiskelijabudjetti hotness

Mie pohdiskelin tässä miksi ei levyhyllystä löydy yhtään levyä yhtyeeltä Jack Off Jill, joka kuitenkin tuppaa olemaan yksi lempibändeistä. Eipä siis muuta kuin virhe korjaamaan (muutaman muun levyn siinä sivussa tilaten ja ehkä mahdollisesti jopa yhden dvd:nkin erehdyin ostoskassiin lätkäsemään)!

Olisinpa tilannut kyseisen bändin keulahahmon Jessickan uudemman bändin eli Scarlingin levyn, jos semmoista olisi ollut tuolla tarjolla. Vaan eipä ollut niin jätetään toiseen metsästyskertaan (cdon.comissa näemmä Scarlingia olisi, sieltä siis joskus innostuessani). Toisaalta siinä tilatessa muistinkin, että olinkin odotellut jo jonkun aikaa lahjaksi JOJ:n levyä, koska on kuitenkin hintaluokassaan siellä alkuperäishinnoissaan eli lähempänä paria kymppiä. Itseasiassa hiukan ylikin. Yleensä kuitenkin metsästän aina alesta haluamani levyt, koska en niitä uutena himoitse niin paljon opiskelija'tuloilla'. Ellei kyseessä sitten ole joku kumminkaimankoirankasvattajan pojan serkun bändi, jota haluan jostain järjettömästä mielenviasta johtuen tukea. Nojaa. On se ihme jopa kahdesti tapahtunut elämäni aikana.

I'd rather be creepy and very strange."

Pieni Pulverityttö

Pieni pulverityttö 

napsii sieniä Muumimamman käsilaukusta. 

Iloisesti tanssahtelee, nauraa, 

kunnes Saippuakupla puhkeaa.

Pieni pulverityttö 

itkee pienen tytön suuria kyyneliä. 

Kastelee itsensä läpimäräksi 

ja muuttuu tahmeaksi.
Pieni pulverityttö, 

Eteenpäin eivät jalat kanna. 

Liimaantunut puiseen lattiaan 

ikuiseksi häkkilinnuksi.

Pieni pulverityttö 

Liikkumaton maailman portto. 

Kuivuneena tuulen mukana 

muuttaa pilvenreunalle.
