I've been feeling really happy lately. Things seem to be going very well and there are lots of wonderful things happening around me. Nothing really big but just many small things in my every day life that make me want to wake up to each new day with a wide smile. No seriously, that's how I feel at the moment! And it's great.

School's going well, class mates are awesome and my new apartment is great. Things are so much better than they were before summer. I felt really depressed all the time back then and felt like going from one difficult situation to another. Funny how so many little things can change everything. (:

Hopefully things are well with you all as well! ^_^/

I finally started my art project blog. It already has some project drawings on it. (:

If you're interested in following the progress of my film projects you should check the blog! It's here: [link]

I also made a Livejournal feed for the account so if you'd prefer to follow the blog on LJ it's possible by adding this account to your friends: [link]

Yay! ^_^/

Back to England with a brand new apartment (meaning I've changed my address again) and housemates and a whole new year of school ahead.
This is going to be my final year studying the bachelor's degree in Animation Arts. After that I'll try to apply to study the Master's degree somewhere else in the UK. There's one really good school I've been thinking about but I'm not sure if I'm skilled enough to get in. We'll see.

We just started a new film project as well. I'm gonna do an animation about a girl with a blushing problem. I've found personal stories to have more depth and usually being more interesting than other stories so I'm planning to do the story about my personal experiences, though, without placing myself in the protagonist's shoes.
I'll start a project blog about my school stuff in one of these days and will post the link here once it's ready. (:

And what else? I quit being an administrator/moderator at the Finnish BJD forum a couple of weeks ago cause I was about to lose my sanity with it as I used too much time and energy into taking care of the place and the people. Now I have much more free time to concentrate on other, more important things and don't have to worry so much stuff. It was hard to let go of a place that you've been building and developing for years but there'a time and place for everything and now was time to let go of that job. I'm happy I did even though it was something I enjoyed alot.

Tomorrow to London. A school trip to visit galleries. Don't know what to expect really but it's nice to go there with the class. (:

Don't know if I'm happy or sad or both. If I could move my family, friends and our sauna to England with me I wouldn't have to feel sad when I leave. Or even better! If I could move our school and my class mates to Finland? That'd be much better to be honest.

I'll be visiting the Comic Festivals this weekend and will have birthday party with my friends during my visit. (The actual day is on the 18th so we'll have the party a little early.) It'll be so much fun. Cake and dolls, laughing our heads off and being idiots.

I've been able to travel quite a lot this summer, thanks to the new law that gives Finns studying abroad the right for student prices when traveling by train or bus. I've been to Desucon, Anime/Finncon (where I finally got to meet ~Sadyna!) and have traveled around Finland with my family.
Overall it's been a fun but really stressful holiday as my dad has been sick from the beginning of the year and it just got worse during the summer. We took him to a special hospital this Monday cause his condition is making the whole family tired of worry and we really want to find out what's wrong. :\

At the moment I'm trying to think about what to bake for the party on weekend and how awesome it's going to be tomorrow when we go to the Zoo for the Cat's Night event to see big cats. Aaand.. I'm trying to forget that I'm ridiculously scared/nervous/stressed about one stupid thing. x_x

It's frustrating how I have this huge inspiration all the time but no time to draw as I have a summer job and I need to be fully awake early in the morning or I'll make mistakes at work. Living with a family makes my life busy. I never remember how busy I was when I was living home. There's always someone who needs help or attention or something needs cleaning and/or fixing and and AND!
I have time for myself only in the middle of the night but I really shouldn't stay awake too long. It's okay to feel dizzy when I'm at school as it's just MY projects that will suffer if I don't rest enough plus I usually get the best ideas (well I think they're great!) when I'm really tired.

I'm going to Lahti tomorrow with my sister and her boyfriend to attend DesuCon. Am really looking forward to it! We have reserver a hotel room for the three of us and have a full list of stuff we want to see and do during the 24H of the con.

Oh yeah, I also got an invitation to join the DeviantArt's film group! Yay, I can post films to my DA account. \o/ I feel so special because they accepted my application to join them. ;_;
