Random post ahead. This is what you would've been reading the whole autumn if I wasn't lazy .
Stuff.
I am the master when it comes to using this word. Stuff. Stuff is always happening in my life. Stuff and things that I can’t explain and to tell you the truth; not even that interested. Things and stuff just happen and it’s funny.
I observe random stuff. I amuse myself with these random happenings and feel extrahappy about them… Random stuff I like to call it. Especially things that happen while I’m on the train, walking around or just cycling somewhere. Or when I’m at a store , again seeing things I have no idea what they are/thinking this only happens in movies and animu.
Things I notice interest me.Things I don’t usually just… are there. Or I am funnily confused about something. Especially when it comes to food.
The amount of different snacks (salty=shoppai/karai or sweet=amai), drinks are just mindblowing. And all the chocolates, ice creams... Sheesh, maybe I gotta make a post about them too.
In our school shop, they have this weird drink as strawberry, tutti frutti and banana flavours. I don't know what it is and I don't care to find out.
Does it make me observative or just quirky when I see these things and I go all C:: ? Or shallow... I don't know. That's the thing. There's a lot of stuff. Most of it horribly and cutely useless. Here I've seen those plastic cases that are made for bananas. You know... because black, bruised bananas are bad (writing that made me horribly racist, I know). Also a plastic case made PURELY to protect your eggs. That you buy from the grocery store.
Because it's so hard to resist that urge to put them on the bottom of your shopping bag.
Purely first world problems... Or not even those to my opinion, just silly consumerism.
Yes. CONSUMERISM. I'M SMRT.
In Japan there's a lot of stuff (see, stuff!!!) that... just should not be. To my opinion. Yeahyeah, I'm a designer and I should come up with stuff that people would buy/get somehow to... Esh. I'll probably become part of this horrible -"ism" at some point and I just have to accept it.
You see, this short post was about stuff again... Wait for more later.
So I like taking pictures. I've just never own a very good camera. Because I like to take my pictures quick and just there.... And I take pictures from silly things. Very silly things. Like this post shows. You'll get more of these, I assure you.

Next time I'll write about my trip to Fuji-san that I had in October. Maybe I'll write it in two parts...
Laters<3 C:
The word I’ve used a lot of here. Or at least I’ve wanted to. I might seem very outgoing person to some people then just the vice versa few moments after. It’s human nature.
Well, you might get a lot of acquaintances here but the fact is that they are not your friends. Just acquaintances that you see in school or when you’re having a good day but otherwise… You hang out with friends after school, not with people who you can only talk about the weather etc… It’s not really fun. Like that. So at this point, after been here little over one month, I only have one person I can call my friend. And I knew her beforehand. And I can call her my friend because we like same things that we can talk about. And we’re both quite silly.
For some reason everyone wants to seem normal.
Or it’s probably because I want to seem special that people want to remember me. In a good and bad way, I can’t really tell as people tend to value different things about people. Like to some a person who knows some things and analyzes almost everything may seem smart to another but someone finds that person just a smartass who talks empty words.
tl;dr
Wrote that part in October, you can read it, now really just… Well yeah. Life’s been more… stable if you can use that word? OKAY, I WILL USE IT NOW. Japan is funny like that, makes you rethink your values. Or just living somewhere where customs and everything are just so upside and topsyturvy compared to the old days.
I've never been much of a people person, never understood them (who does?) but I do like 98% of the people/acquintances/friends/enemies/annoying nutballs around me and whom I am friends with.
Here I've met a lot of people from all age ranges and social statuses and so forth etc. Especially Japanese... they are terribly polite. Both in good and bad. In a store, in the street.
The lack of word 'please' in Finnish language leaves me the habit of not saying it or nt just... showing through words my politeness. I talked about this with my teacher and she was just astonished. How such an important could NOT exist? Nope, it just doesnt.
I find it funny.
I find a lot of things Japanese do funny. But about that later. I just wanted to get this post done.
It really doesnt explain anything but me being derpy...
And really, I dont analyze some things that well that I could write about it very clearly. You can have the short version here:
I dont think about matters that concern people
Japanese have proven themselves to be the most hilarious nation in the world (about that in all the posts)
Ohgod I'm so lazy. So horribly lazy to write blogs with somewhat right grammar and a lot fancy and important words. Yes.
But alas. Now I must update this. Update this derpy blog like MAAADDD. Thanks you Jiro for reminding me about this blog a bit more and making it an assignment so I actually have to update this :IIIII
So this will be more deep (like Siegmund Freud DEEP BRO) and with more audio (or they would be more fun actually but this place is not as awsum as Tumblr so you will get interesting posts with them) and photo posts.
And about random stuff. Will also maybe add shorter texts and blog posts. WILL BE FUN.
Disclaimer: That's so not the hardest rain ever, I didn't want to get wet. But been like for awhile now. And because I haven't seen typhoons/bigger storms a lot, this is prolly not the worst one :I
The name is kinda silly, but that's what they call it. Typhoon number 15 so okay lol. I can roll with that, nothing to say. It's nature and all. Still, school got cancelled and I was all like
Sometimes these things apparently just happen. In Finland, you would've just had to go to school...
Okay, nothing else. Until next time :D
Yes, I am here. Safely and all. Been now little over two weeks and it looks good. I have a lot of stuff to write here and I will post things here slowly, post by post etc and so forth. But yes, we arrived to Japan and we got to fill out papers almost right away. I've never filled out so much official papers than in here. And I'm still not done with these. But after that we finally got our apartments. And my, I wondered for so long why this place is so horribly expensive but I can see why. Oh I see why. I live alone in a small apartment that has a bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and toilet. This is the first time when I'm not living in a shared apartment and it's so weird.But so, the city also where I live is both big and small at the same time. And guys, there's even a KFC here. I have to visit it just even once. Still, let's not go ahead of things; I'm a bit so-not-organized with writing, especially in a hurry.
First off, I'll show you my apartment.
The brotastic hosue where I live in
The street I live in
You can the kitchen in the left and bathroom and toilet on the right from the front door
And from the other side
Finally I live in a flat that has a bathtub
Guess what is that funky thing on the top there? C:
A GREEN RICECOOKER. IT IS SO NICE C:
Oh yes, a gas stove. How I love it.
Erm.... My computer table and working area.
And oh, the glorious setting above my work space
So as you can see, things are pretty neat. Even though still school hasn't started... Today's classes (that I really actually waited for so much) were cancelled because of a tropical cyclone aka a typhoon. And Friday is a national holiday here again so WHOOP, no school again :I
And guess what, thanks to that It's been basically two things: fascinating and weirdly boring. (Yeah, bit boring for some reason. Just because I haven't been able to do a lot and meet a lot of people. Still met some and they are cool though Just because the uni didn't start right away when we got here. But that's prolly good because after uni really starts, I don't have a lot of time anymore derp around like I've been doing now. And getting over being homesick has been easier too in this really weird way.) But the boring part is because I like it like that too, it's not a negative emotion... Weirdly. Mostly it's been very interesting and everything seems new. That's the basic feeling right now. And I have been here like only two weeks so PFFF, anything can still happen. And I still haven't been able to hang out with my friend who lives on the other side of Tokyo Bay so we have that too in the future!
But so, the city also where I live is both big and small at the same time. And guys, there's even a KFC here. I have to visit it just even once. But rant rant, bitch bitch, that's that for now. Next time I'll write something more exciting... Like about Tokyo. Or school. OR FOOD 8I Or how totally not cool I look here :D
