Procrastinating in the name of the greater good.

I should be studying for a test but as you can probably already guess, I am instead procrastinating. Like a boss.
Anyhow, I figured that I should at least put together a blog post about my spring vacation, because I know how you are all just *dying* to hear more about my life.

Anyhow, yeah mah sistahs came on saturday, the 19th and brought with them, what I would call the INSANITY WEEKEND
Yes, it was *that* awesome

We went to the countryside twice, once with my parents and once just with my sisters and Ken. The second time was awesome. Kaja and Ken had one bonfire, ma and Kaida another a bit further away from them and I have no idea what Kaja was doing but Kaida and I started speaking pure Saare and danced around the fire like maniacs. Of and tried not to burn down the entire forest.
Luckily we succeeded on both accounts.
Speaking of Lucky, he managed to chew through his leash with what he was tied to a tree. Anyone thinking that tying a dog to a tree is horribly mean should know that the other alternative was to let him roam free, discovering all the wild animal scents, running after them like a good little daschund and then dissappearing into the woods forever.
Anyway.
That covers sunday and Thursday
On monday.. well Kaja and mom had some thing with some legal people over the land and shit, and Kaida and I went to the city, found out that every fucking hairdresser in this godforsaken town is on holiday (seriously.) and managed to book an appointment for friday.
then we probably did something else but I can't for the life of me remember.
I should also mention that the fact that I can't remember most of the week is not due to them drugging me but most likely because of the go to bed 9pm wake up at 7am routine their lifestyles forced us into. Seriously, who does that on their holidays?
On tuesday we went to the cinema to watch
Amazing movie, interesting and all your favurite characters die. Watching it in cinema was specially awesome since with the three of us, there were only 6 people: us, some young couple and a creepy dude. The creepy dude just added to the experience.
I ain't even sarcastic here, people. Go watch it. Wasnice.
That chick from glee was in it, too. The brittany or whatever. And she doesn't even die!

Speaking of movies, we watched quite a few.
I specially asked Kaja to bring with them
Yes, it's indeed Helena Bonham Carter in there. The movie was amazing. Not an action one but a sweet historic one that makes you think and stuff.
I really suck at despribing movies and books but frankly all three that we saw that week were amazing and I really recommend them.
Which brings me to the third:
Now that was one dark, twisted story. And when I say dark, I mean dark. It's about a young ballerina who gets the lead part she always wanted but then paranoia gets the best of her and eventually kills her / gravely injures her after finishing the preformance of her life.
Or something like that.
If you aren't light-hearted then do watch it.
Awesome.
Also, Natalie Portman. Nuff said.

mmm
what else..
Ohyeah, the doggies were complete savages. Ever seen two dogs fighting? Yeah it was something like that for the entire week. Every day from the second they got together to the second they were finally separated for the night.



There were, ofcourse a couple of quiet moments when they decieded that they liked eachother.

*movie*

Sound removed, because you seriously don't want to hear me go awwwww in a voice, next to which bieber sounds manly.

And yeah.
Some pictures now.

Katja apparently decided that dad was an intruder and got incredibly mad every time he tried to come home. So I put up some warning signs for him.

Dramatic picture is dramatic.
Yes, I'm just painfully shy compared to them... Don't ask what's up with Katja.
Pwned.
Big awesome dog is awesome. And big.

I believe I also mentioned going to the hairdressers.
Yeeah
There's a streak on the other side too but it wouldn't be captured on the photo, seeing as 3D pictures are a bit out of my blogs league.

Last but not least, dramatic Kelly is dramatic. And awesome

Oh and I should mention for future refrence: Estonie vs Uruguay? Awesome. Estonia vs Serbia not so much.



Dramatic music much?

THE WATER'S BACK!!!

YAY!
Anyway, I didn't come here for that.
I came here because a while ago our teacher came up with this idea that everyone would write something about each of their classmates onto a piece of paper, the papers would be sorted, everyone would get the papers that are about them and decide which pinions they want in the yearbook.
I got my papers back and thought I'd type out the awesomest ones :D

Apparently when Kati thinks of me the first thing that pop into her head are "Punupats ja peavõru" Go figure XD Also she seems to think that my mood depends on the amount of caffeine I've swallowed in the morning (goddammit I even managed to make that sentence sound dirty..) Although I have no idea whatsoever how she would come upon that conclusion...
Bambs, laconic as she is, wrote down Weird, Smart and Emo. Geeeee...
Short but friendly seems to be popular among my classmates..
Another popular opinion is that I stomp with my heels. THEY MAKE NOISE BECAUSE THEY AREN'T FLATS YOU BLOODY IDIOTS. god. Also kontsakingad? One word.
Someone seems to think I know lots about natural science topics and such.
"Big intelligence herself. That says it all. Supertalented in English." That is single handedly the cutest card out of 28.
ohlook, someone has gone to all the trouble of writing "ei tea" on the paper. I wonder who..
"Lühike õpihimuline" XD lovely.
"Quiet" lolwut? XD After knowing me for 9 years how the fuck can you write quiet?
Of course to be fair for those who I didn't know what to write about I just scribbled down quiet aswell... meeh.

so. After doing a little statistics..
Most popular thing to say about me is

Smart (12 cards)

Short (8 cards)

China (4 cards) a long story I won't ever go into...

Funny; weird (3 cards)

"Tubli"; Weird humour; Stomps with her heels; Interesting; Good in english; Nice (2 cards)

Long haired; addicted to caffeine; Emo; Addicted to computers; Good friend; Loyal, Easily irritated; Special; Good at giving advice; knows a lot about science; "Õpihimuline"; "Tagasihoidlik"; Likes to doodle; Quiet; Talkative; Positive (lolwut?) (1 card)

Huh.. , cool.
Also the words in quotation marks? Yeah that's me being really good in english. (at english? on english? with english? under english?) and also lazy which for some reason was never mentioned. They probably thought I was going to kill them while they were sleeping or something
Also I suddenly feel very self concious about what tenses I'm using and wether I'm doing it right or not.
while they were sleeping? While they /are/ sleeping? Geesh.

did I mention we have our water back?
yeah.

Ohyeah, Bambs made me this complicated system of having a theme song for every day and I though I may as well just include that days song into my blog post. Whenever I make one.
Soyeah. Enjoy Livin la Vida Loca

Spring: The harsh reality.

Niisiis, see postitus on peamiselt minu õdedele, kes tulevad nädala aja pärast koju ja seega ilmselt peaksid saam ette hoiatatud siinse ilma ja muu sellise kohapealt.
Niiet ma otsustasin pärast kooli teha võikese jalutuskäigu ümber pargi.

Juba kouduuksest välja astudes tervitab meid suhteliselt kurb pilt
Aganäe, muru!!
Võinoh rohkem vagu vettinud sopp kust turritab paar rohelist liblet välja aga hei, muru on muru.
Vesi on ikka veel külmunud, võibolla peaksite mõtlema hotellitoa rentimisele, et kordamööda vetsus ja dušši all kõia saaks.
Sissesõidutee algus.
Pärna tänava kassid muidugi märga ja külma ei karda.
Ja muidugi tore vaade kodutänavale endale. Kummipaadilaenutus kohapealt.
Kass, väga kavalalt maskeerunud rebaseks.
..või vastupidi..
Parki sisse minnes ei näe olukord just kuigi hea välja
Part, lestapidi mudas.
Inimkonna õnneks on aga enamus teest suhteliselt kuiv. Suhteliselt.
Oooooh, teeeeeeeeeeeere.
Uisurada on küll veel avatud aga see ei näe just kuigi tahke välja.
Tore koht kus pikali käia.
Ja veel natuke Pärna tänavat. Teised teed on üldiselt enam vähem lahti sulanud aga meie oma on otsustanud jõeks muutuda.
Ja muidugi Kohalik Kass, Kes Võib Aga Ei Pruugi Olla See, Kes Ellale Jälle Peksa Andis
Läheneda ettevaatusega. Soovitatavalt koeraga.
Niisiis, nende piltide järeldusena võib öelda, et kaasa tuleks pakkida kummikud. Kummikud teile, kummikud koertele ja ilmselt ka kummikud autole.
Isegi teie kummikutel peaksid kummikud kaasas olema.
Noh, vähemalt olete te nüüd informeeritud ja ma näen teid umbes 7 päeva pärast !

Spring!!

The spring, it's coming, it's finally coming!!!


I was walking home from school when it suddenly hit me: The spring is almost here, I can just feel it, can't you?
Feel the way the sun is gaining strenght and coming closer, the days are longer, the birds are singing, the water is dripping, people are suddenly more alive, the nature is waking up...
Can't you just feel it?
Take the sun for an example. A month ago when you found a patch of sun shining through your window and put your hand into it, it was cold. Just a source of light, not warmth. But now, walking home can't you feel it warming up your trousers and stroking your face?
Andand the snow is melting, there's water everywhere. And not the sad kind of cold water where you step into and swear loudly, It's the happy kind that just races down the streets and drips from the icicles and makes everything more... alive.
~Google image search

Everything is just... Happier.
And the smell! It's the smell of spring. The smell of new beginnings and earth and melting snow!
And the birds are singing and the cats are meowing and can't you hear it?
People, milling around, starting to come out of that dark winter and it's just so pretty!
After another winter that never seemed to end, the spring is starting to come out of it's shell to suprise us once again with it's mindblowing beauty.
-Kelly
Listen, can you hear it? Spring's sweet cantata. The strains of grass pushing through the snow. The song of buds swelling on the vine. The tender timpani of a baby robin's heart. Spring.

Sky High

Uhh... hello.

I suddenly had the overwhelming urge to watch sky high and blog.
Before I start though, I would like to point out that it's all Kairis fault somehow. I can't exactly remember how but seeing as I got the stupid feeling of kgahugiagpdhineedtoseeitnow!!!! yesterday while chatting with her, I'm pretty sure she's the one who said something that made me go all ooh! Skyhighhhh...
Shame on you, Kairi, shame on you.



Ooooohkay I'mma just start off with saying that goddammit I love the beginning where the whole backstory is told in the form of like comics. socool 8D

Will Stronghold: [voiceover] You look at them and see the defenders of the world. All I see is my dad. Wearing tights.

Yeah I don't think I personally would survive that. Also, what is it with superheroes and their tights? Couldn't they just use, oh I don't know... pants? Geesh.

kiujdsigauiojuhaighujfgkjkdjogtiofd LAYLA!
Goddammit, I love her.
Seriously though, she has like the power to control plants and talk to animals or smth. And the manages to actually care aout stuff that are important.
I'm not saying I don't care about the environment, I mean obviously I know that it's a big problem and all but at the same time, I go to the store and I don't think twice about buying something wrapped in plastic or about what I need and don't really need.
I guess it's hard to really take something as a big problem if it's not affecting you. Yet.

Ooooooh, superdramatastic phonecall!
Also it's really amusing to see superheroes flying around, fighting crime, being all bamf all the while discussing their sons first day at school. Domestic superheroes...
More drama and exasperated acting! wooooooooooo.
and we're only 8 minutes 34 seconds in...
OOHOHOOHOOOOOH, fLYING SCHOOLBUS!
Seriously, every school should have one.
Everyone: WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH OMG WHAT'S HAPPENING SKJGIADUHPDG
Busdriver: psh, freshmen...

As a little sidenote, the lead character Will Stronghold is played by Michael Angarano
Who started his career when he was 12 years old, then when he was 15 played a character who was 12 and then when he was 17 he took this role where his charcter Will is 14.
Maybe when he's 30 he'll finally get to play a 17-year old character...

Anyhow, back to the movie.
Ohlook this is the moment when we finally (little more than 10 minutes in) find out that layla has a major crush on Will.
WHAT A SUPRISE

The students make it to the school, gaze around with mouths wide open, we see the cool students, the cheerleaders (or in this case a cheerleader who can make multiple copies of herself. How selfish, why isn't anyone else on the team?) and of course the bullies.

Is it a suprise to anyone that that stretchy bully dude is one of my favourite characters?
The striped one, in case you haven't seen the movie for some reason.

Ohlook, a hot female character shows up out of nowhere and Will instantly falls in love. MUST BE A BAD CHICK.
Heeeelllloooo, ascended headmaster person.
*ahem* principle Powers...
OHMYGOD there is a system where they sort you into cliques by your powers and you can either end up as a hero or a loser. I mean hero support.
How... original.
Coach Boomer, the stereotypical bully PE teacher.
Coooooool. 8)



I take some sadistic enjoyment in this.
"Alright, we'll pick it up again right after lunch. Starting with... you" *pointing at Will*
The classic situation where you finally have to show the entire class that ohai you're a loser and have no powers. I WONDER WHAT HAPPENS NEXT...
And now... the dark and superduper dramatic apparently-a-bad-guy who has some chicken to pluck with our charming lead character
And the whole reason I watch this movie.
Dark, dramatic, has a tear-inducing backstory involving his supervillain dad... All you have ever wanted in a character. trufax.
Oh and his name is Warren Peace. Obviously.
The villain-y chick flirts, the lead makes a fool of himself because obviously when talking to a girl it's hard to actually focus on anything and shit. Happens to me /alllll/ the time.
uhh Layla is jealous, Will is oblivious... The usual.
Oh and Warren nearly crashes into Will and looks super intimidating in the process. Me likey.
Will gets trashed around and ifnally admits that he has no powers. Blimey.
Crazy old doctor person with X-ray vision... Sort of scary actually.
Wills parents finally introduce him to the supersecret lair where they keep all their superhoero stuffs, before Will gets a change to enter his father mentiones that will must never ever bring anyone into the secret sanctum and Will promises not to. So obviously we all now know that the villan-y chick ends up in there, making out with Will at some point.
And the robot eye that Mr.daddysuperhero won in the battle at the very beginning of the episode, inexplicably starts itself up, unnoticed. Colour me shocked and suprised.
Will climbs onto the roof and layla grows a tree to get herself up there aswell. AWESOME, Y/Y?

ohyeah, the weirdo teacher.
"The All-American Boy!! Ofcourse nowadays, I just go by Mr. Boy."

OOHOOOHOOH, the awesome chemistry teacher, Mr. Medulla.

Every school should have one. Srsly.
oooh look Will accindentally dropped his food tray in close proximity of the ebil arch nemesis dude, who for some reason completely exploded and decided to start throwing fireballs at Will, who suddenly finds out that WOW he can both fly like his mommy and be superduper strong like his daddy.



Magic.
I have this thing with fire where I fear it like... well fire and yet think it's the awesomest thing ever.
Actually that's probably not the uncommon. You know, fear and honour the shit you don't understand and so on. Besides it's hot. Fire I mean.
Angstyface!
CG sucks but the awesome remains.
And the awesome is defeated by a fire extinguisher. Goddammit.
That principle woman is wearing shoes that are atleast twice her body lenght. Wow.
Am I the only one finding that weird?
[Will and Warren are in the Detention Room for fighting.]
Will: Look, whatever happened with our dads, it has nothing to do with us. [extends a hand for shaking] What do you say?
Warren: I say, if you ever cross me again, I'll roast you alive.
Cheerful.



The hero gets transfered into the his respectful class now that his worth something to the school and gets all angsty over it. Goddammit boy, have a sense of adventure or something.
And the mad teacher pairs Will with his villain-y crush chick. Again, what a suprise.
Well someone has fun PE classes. Villains vs heroes, the heroes have to save a dummy suspended over some lovely blades before the dunny reaches them. Of course Will gets paired off with Warren.
Awesomeneww ensues and, as everyone but the blind and mute lady at the back has already guessed, they win. "No freshman has ever won save the citizen before!" which ofcourse isn't an obsticle for our man Will. Obviously.
I also love the remark that two teachers make on the sideline at the beginning of the scene: "Remember when we used real citizens? oh hehe, yeah, yeah..."
Cheerful.
Oh and in the process he also saves Warren.
Evil chick shows up at Wills place, making his head spin around and forget everything about the date with Layla who amizingly enough runs into Warren who in his off time is a waiter at a chinese restaurant. He then turns out to be a great person and a psychologist. And he speaks chinese. Suprised, yes?
meh. boringboringboring.
skipping ahead to the interessting parts now.
Ohlook, whaddayaknow, Will ends up snogging the evil chick in the supersecret lair that noone except the Stronghold family are supposed to enter. Ever.
And then the chick proceeds to steal sume superawesome weapon.
And of course nobody notices.
Will sees evil chicks real colours and shit, dumps her, teenage drama ensues..
The waitress/firedude/psychologist Warren then goes on to fix everyones love life by being awesome. And just not giving a fuck.
Oh and he has a ponytail.
And now suddenly, out of nowhere, Will realizez that the weird chick in his parents' yearbook is NO OTHER THAN HIS BELOVED VILLAINCHICK and on one of the pictures she's actually holding the superweapon she later stole.
I mean it's not like his parent's haven't had that yearbook and that weapon for ages now . . .
Cut to the homecoming dance where Sweet and lovely Gwen suddenly turns into the Royal Pain. Literally.
Gwen: That's right. Royal Pain wasn't my mother. Royal Pain is ME!
Will: Oh my God, I made out with an old lady.

The she zaps everyone with her gun thingy, turning heroes into babies, then comes will who then saves the night, everyone gets turned back and woohoo, the movie is finally over.
And no, I can't be bothered to watch the end to bring to you more stills. I also have a distinct feeling that you are happier about that than you should be.
Anyway that concludes that weirdly awesome movie and if you never want me to do this movieblogging thing again let me know and I'll happily oblige.
All in all this post became more of a Steven Strait appreciation post, judging by the pictures but you better get used to it. I have decided to do an "Why you should watch The Covenant, like right now." and seeing as he's the lead... Well many pictures to come.


-Kelly
P.S: slow computers... Sowwy? :3
Will: [voiceover] So in the end, my girlfriend became my arch-enemy, my arch-enemy became my best friend, and my best friend became my girlfriend. But, hey — that's high school.

Umm.. Quotes from Wikiquote, Pictures from google picture search and the movie plus some clips from youtube because I'm a lazy git.

Dexter

As far as TV series go, I have watched and currently watch several, for I prefer them over movies as I can keep on watching. They don't end abruptly leaving me to wonder what the fuck is going to happen next?
Anyway, I have already discussed two that I really really like (Dr who and Stargate) But there is another show that I would like to discuss

Dexter

While the other two posts have been the reasons why you should totally watch those shows, this is more like a Why This Show Should Never Have Aired. And I'm not looking to offend any fans, I'm just bringing to you my petty thoughts on the topic.
See the basic plot of Dexter is this guy who is a psychopath, works in FBI or something and in his free time kills peopl. Basically he is a serial killer. But here's the twist: He only kills those who he has deemed evil or who have done some serious crimes.
Which is suddenly supposed to make it all better?
Before anyone is going to bitch about anything, I will tell you that I have seen two and a half seasons, I think. I have seasons 1-4 on DVD but I just can't bring myself to actually watch the rest, for I can no longer justify it to myself. This guy kills people and the whole show makes it look normal, just like another day at the office.
And I know, I know. It's just a TV show, nothing to freak out about. If I don't like it I can just switch the channel or close the window and go on tumblr. Or you know - blogger.
But still I feel like ranting today and you are being subjected to it. So suck it.
Anyway, my point is that this show makes it looks like it's somehow okay to kill someone if you feel the need to and that someone is a criminal. And you know, if you do it right, you will probably get away with it.
That's not okay! Again, this may be just a movie but there are people out there who fall into the traps of television and can no longer tell which is real life and which is fantasy. There may be poeple out thre who watch that and for some reason identify with the lead character. There may be kids out there who just want to "feel what Dexter feels" for the show describes the feeling of killing as something amazing.
And even if those people do it and are caught, and by god I hope they would at least get caught, there are still human lives lost. And I get it, there are human lives lost all the time, but why don't we ever see that show focusing on the victims families? Most of the time even the cruellest criminals have some kind of homes, parents, maybe even sisters and brothers. We never see that there are people left behind, people in grief because someone close to them has died.
Every human life is valuable. Why don't we ever see that show pointing that out?
From wikipedia I got this quote:
CBS added parental advisory notices to its broadcast promotions, and ultimately rated Dexter TV-14 for broadcast. The show premiered on February 17, 2008, edited primarily for language and scenes containing sex or the dismemberment of live victims.

My god. Dismemberment of live victims? And we really call this show okay to watch for ayone under 79 who still has their eyesight and doesn't have to wear a hearing aid?
We keep going on and on about how there is so much violence in cartoons and stuff that kids watch that are mostly centered on the good guy catching the bad guy? I'm not saying that those cartoons are okay either but this show is just plain wrong!
I guess in the end it is still up to everyone individually, if they want to watch it but just keep the stuff you read in mind while doing it.

Oh, right to sort of prove my point or to make it clearer that there are already three cases in witch the tv show is believed to be indirectly or directly the result of someone killing someone.

On December 3, 2008, Twitchell pleaded not guilty to the charge of first-degree murder of 38-year-old John Altinger, whose body is still missing. Twitchell filmed footage for a production of House of Cards (entirely unrelated to the British production of the same name), a horror-romance similar in tone to Dexter, in which he allegedly murdered Altinger. Det. Mark Anstey of the Edmonton Police Service was quoted as saying, "We have a lot of information to suggest he definitely idolizes Dexter." In the summer of 2008, Twitchell had posted a series of ominous Facebook statuses in which he "believed he had a lot in common with Dexter Morgan".


In November 2009, Andrew Conley, 17, was arrested in Rising Sun, Indiana, in connection with the death of his 10-year-old brother, Conner. In an affidavit filed in Ohio County court, police said that Andrew told investigators that he identified with the character. "Andrew stated that he watches a show called 'Dexter' on Showtime, about a serial killer," prosecutors said in an affidavit. "He stated, 'I feel just like him.'" Conley is now serving life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.



On 3 February 2010, Faiza Ashraf was killed by Håvard Nyfløt in the area of Solli near Asker, Norway. Håvard Nyfløt commented that he was inspired by the TV series.

Yeeeeah...
