Since I've been gone...

Mon May 11, 2009, 10:26 AM
Argh! Still no artworks! What is wrong with me?!?! Well I suppose I do have an excuse, seeing as I've managed to get myself some part-time temporary work as an exam invigilator. Yeah, that's right, I'll be the one walking round, making sure the pupils aren't cheating. It's all changed since my day, what with everyone having to write in black biro (I used to use a blue fountain pen lol) and not being allowed mobile phones hidden anywhere. When I was sitting exams, you physically COULDN'T hide a mobile phone, they were that big! Still, I hope it all goes well. It's not for long, but money's money.

We are both hoping to get away this year, Helsinki looks as though it's on the books. If anyone has been there or can make some nice suggestions, they will be more than welcomed. The things we like in order are: food, castles... errr more food... shopping places, museums...and err, did I mention places to eat? There's this Lap restaurant that serves reindeer and elk and cloudberries. I must try these things!! As well as the national vodka of course.

I have also been working really hard on my writing, so maybe that's why I'm uninspired artistically at the mo. I have so many ideas that I want to write down, I wish there was more time in the day. Ah well, I'm sure that's what many people say. Let's hope that being out and about again, doing some work, will bring back all the inspiration in a flash. I hope everyone's well, take care and I'll write again soon. Hugs and cookies to everyone.

Helsinki!! Go to the modern art museum.. The building is absolutely kick ass, and you can get lost while trying to look at everything. And go to the market at the harbor and eat yummy crepes. And the big white temple that looks like candy.

Good luck keeping people from cheater.
Those cheaters...

Congrats on getting some work at least. Let's hope someone eventually develops a cure for lack of inspiration soon... or legalizes it. <_< >_>

Man, Helsinki looks fun! I've been so bored with everything everywhere lately getting 2 states over is going to be a blast. Hope you have fun! :hug:

I haven't lost my mind - It's backed up on disk somewhere...

Exam invigilator's scared me during my A levels....I hated it when they hovered over my shoulder reading what I had written DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD:

and Ooooo Helsinki 8DDD sounds awesome :heart: I never would have thought of that as a place to go on holiday :aww: :3
:iconzoestead:
We don't much like traditional holidays to just sit in the sun, and it seemed like a good choice as its on the sea - I like the sea- and has lovely bars and restaurants, live music every night and a castle and lots of history :D - as for the invigilating thing, I'll be nice, as I know how horrible it is for people to read what you are writing!

Helsinki, that`s the capital town of Finland, our neighour. :)

I have just quit my job at Mcdonalds, it wasent for me. To stressfu, always lot of customers and short breaks. I`m going to try to find a job in a dress-shop instead. I think it would be more suitable for me.
