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.

Win, win, win

Christmas has now passed. I think I will still have to eat the food today but otherwise. I got presents. All the people in my family got tons of presents. I guess we've been good. We played loads of board games so that was fun. I think I actually won most the games I played on. I won Settlers of Catan with 6 people, Seafarers with 4 people, Ticket to Ride with a German map (my new game I got for Christmas), Kuin kaksi marjaa (fun Finnish game of matching words to adjectives), Puerto Rico and Thurn & Taxis (the game I bought for myself). That was a lot of winning. I did also lose games but it seems I won loads really. Winning is fun. Just playing is fun too. But yeah it was a fun Christmas with everyone here together.

I best take the dog out soon now. I promised him and it's not going to be light outside for much longer.

    I always thought I was a bad loser and some people keep telling me that but it seems like I'm not. Since you abviously won all the games and I don't feel bad at all. I suppose I also won a couple. The only loss I really feel bad about is that first seafarers settlers. I didn't really get anywhere.
    Yeah and we played it with the neighbors yesterday and well they seemed to be bad losers. I suppose playing for almost a week with the family I forgot that we usually play really nice. U know not steal from anybody. So they got really mad that we stole from them. and they were winning too in the beginning!
    I suppose they are tired of me always winning. this time me and Jaakko were a team so everyone could play.
    So I don't know if the playing new year's eve will work out. We'll figure out something though. There's really 5 of us at our place too. Enough to play. ;)
    See u tomorrow!
    Oh, yeah, the new pump is working. The inside one.
