Becoming a Crystallographer

This is the blog of a future crystallographer, not that crystallography is the main area of discussion. I'll maybe mention it once in a while, while writing about my life and other things.

Ready for the weekend?

The flu is better today. It was already better yesterday. Today it is even better. You're thinking no problem then. Well me too other than me having a headache. It started this morning and I think it has gotten worse. It gets worse when I move around or cough. I should probably take something for it but I just don't feel like taking any ibuprofen. It makes my eyes weird and I can't just take 200mg since the tablets I have cannot be put in half. Ok so I have to get going home and stop complaining. Have to go buy some bread too. I'll just spend the night reading a book. Tomorrow I have to go shopping for Christmas presents. Well I don't have to but I want to get something for certain people so I want to.

I feel like I have been walking around in a sort of daze this week. Like not really minding my surroundings. Then again I feel that way quite often and sometimes walk around as in a daze just for the sake of it. I just play music on my ipod and walk around to the beat of it and almost sing the lyrics out loud. Mostly I probably just seem weird bouncing around and moving my mouth. But the thing about being here is that I really don't have to mind what people think since no-one knows me. It actually annoys me that I may run into the guy from the disco somewhere. He would know more about me than what people passing by or sitting in a tram know. Not that he knows anything. It just sort of ruins my attitude of walking around in a daze not minding other people since no-one can recognize me. Oh but I think I am making no sense here. I blame my headache. I never have headaches.

Oh but have a nice weekend. I hope I don't get too pissed off about there being like tons of people in the city shopping. But I can always do my daze thing and put on some music. I'm quite good at getting through a crowd. And well I think it is sort of fun when it works out. Kind of like watching an intersection of roads with all the cars, bikes and pedestrians just doing their thing and it working. It is quite amazing sometimes.

    aspect of the dazed, good name for a song ;)

    headaches are nasty, I all of a sudden had one the other day for no particular reason. Drank some litre of water and it sort of passed, kinda like you I very rarely get headaches but when I do it's most likely due to dehydration.. :P

    argh, at work and still too sleepy to do any actual work.. ;) maybe I'll have some tea.. ;) later sis!

    Headaches suck! I get them quite often nowadays. Tired eyes and back. Sometimes smelling coffee beans helps. Try that next time. ;)
    We got all the rest of our x-mas presents last saturday. I feel so relieved. I think the people recieving them will like them. :)
    I haven't gotten anything for any friends of mine. Will get something for Hanna though, but that's only a matter of going to a certain store and choosing from like 3 items. Good to know what some people always want. ;)
    Hope u had a good weekend! And a good start of the week. When will you be in Finland?
