Entertainment for hours on end!
It has come to my attention that I have like a million little random bookmarks piling up on my computer. And you know what? Most of them are fucking awesome so I'll just share here. Right now.
1. Learn world geography in, like, literally days.
You know what's awesome? Knowing shit tons of countries, their names, capitals and shit like that. Knowing Stuff is basically the basis of intelligent communication between Awesome people. That site really helps learn very fucking country in the world. The tests get harder and harder per level (although, I do admit, last time I was there some of them weren't working) and it's well worth a look. Even if just to confirm to yourself, yes I still know all african countries by heart.
2. Did you know that there is a Dr. Who online game?
Yeah, I betcha you didn't. I don't have anything to say about this because even though this bookmark has been sitting around in my folders for months, I still haven't explored it further...
3. Trivia about anything and everything you ever could think of.
Basically a bunch of trivia games for when you are really really really bored and just want to find out weird and sort of mind-numbing trivia about pretty much anything. Ever.
4. I was going to link to Goggles here but it looks like it's down. Anyhow, this is how my blog looked like to goggle-users just some days ago
Obviously, Bambs and I had some fun.
5. Wiki-surfing !!
Basically, this extremely addictive game is really supersimple and devastatingly hard: When you start the game you will be directed to some wikipedia article and from that, using just links (no search option) you have to reach your goal. Like for example you are directed to an article about John Cena and using the inks in the article you have to reach the article about Space Race. You have no idea how much time Bambs and I spent on this thing today.
6. Obey the dang game, man.
This is even simpler and puts your concentration and reaction time to the ultimate test. Objective: Obey the instructions given to you. Unless they tell you to disobey.
7. Emperor's New Groove (2000)
Yes, the bookmarks are pretty much randomly and that is the greatest movie eva. You probably have seen it a time or two but still. Watch it anywhere anytime. As long as you have internet and putlocker hasn't pulled the dang thing yet.
8. Akinator.
If you haven't heard about Akinator yet, your life has been sad, boring, and full of disappointments. But no more! Now brought to you with a link. Just close your eyes, think of someone (or something, really) and answer the questions. You'll be amazed. At least at first, later on you'll just be stubborn.
9. Coca cola is always willing to help you waste your time.
Just click all the links, you won't be sorry until you find out how much time you wasted doing absolutely nothing.
10. I wish my regular calendar had all this information
Ever seen some little picture about today being the international kissing day or whatever and wondered where the fuck people come up with that stuff? Well this site has gathered all holidays and little weird day things. You'll be wheezing with laughter in about 10 minutes after you click. that. link.
11. Fanfiction.
Whenever you feel particular hatred for Twilight, read this. 100% guarantee, you'll feel better. Seriously, read to the end.
12. The Nicest place on the internet.
Having a shitty day? Need a hug? How about hundreds?
13. There are cheaper ways to get your fix.
Much, much better than drugs but gives pretty much the same effect. I think. Scroll with your mouse to speed it up or down and move your cursor. Stargate, amirite?
14. Has the Large Hadron Collider destroyed the world yet?
15. And fuck you, music companies.
Absolutely need to watch a youtube clip but some corporate richardheads have banned you from watching? Well, unblock it then.
16. Last but not least. Webcomic.
Nothing beats stereotypical nationalities. I have already linked to that comic at least once but it's worth repeating.
17. I was going to Rick Roll you again...
... but this song is more annoying and for that you deserve a heads-up.
Now excuse me while I try to fall asleep with that song running amok in my head. I'm like a chronical masochist.

"Loe, ilasta ja küpseta!" - See on minu moto /ülepingutatult cheesy wink
Niisiis, on jällegi aeg pöördud tagasi oma juurte juurde ja kirjutada üks blogipostitus in estonian. Point on muidugi selles et mu keeleoskamatud öeraasud tahavad koogiretsepti.
Ohyeah. Kook.
Nimi: Nutella-juustukook
Valmistusaeg: 1 tund kooki teha ja siis 4h- ööpäev külmikus seista lasta
Toidab: Kuskil 30 aafrika mitmelapselist pere, või kaks näljast soomlast.
Kaloreid:
Lihtsalt sellepärast, et ma olen kohutav inimene, ma alustan piltide näitamisest.
Kliki pildile, siis näed suuremalt. Ma tean, et sa tahad.
Kliki.
Lihtsalt tee seda.
Mmmmmmm... šokolaad. nnnghhhh.
Ilma pikema jamamiseta ma üritan retsepti ära tõlkida. Targematele inimestele on originaal siin, minu õdedele on tõlgitud versioon siin all:
Küpsisepõhi:
250 grammi Digestive küpsiseid (või muid kaeraküpsiseid)
75 grammi magedat võid
Teelusikatäis Nutellat
25 grammi hakitud sarapuupähkleid
Sisu:
400 grammi Nutellat (toatemperatuuril soovitatavalt)
500 grammi toorjuustu (kah toatemperatuuril)
60 grammi tuhksuhkurt (see on umbes 1dl, kui köögikaalu pole)
Peale:
Sitaks pähkleid (75 grammi on retseptis antud)
Töökäik:

~Kooooooooooooooooooook~
- Purusta küpsised, lisa sulatatud või ja Nutella. Sega hoolikalt läbi. Seejärel kalla juurde pähklid ja sega jälle läbi.
- Kalla puru umbes 23cm ümmargusse vormi, suru servadele (jäta põhja seda ka ikka korralikult, muidu on pärast liiga õhukese põhja peal. Nagu mul..) ning pane külmikusse seisma.
- Sega kokku toorjuust ja tuhksuhkur hoolikalt läbi. Lisa Nutella. Sega nagu hullumeelne.
- Võta põhi külmikust välja, vala segu sinna sisse, kalla pähklid peale ja pane külmikusse vähemalt neljaks tunniks seisma.
- Serveeri külmalt.

It's Not a Fashion Statement, It's a Fucking Eagle.
My Chemical Romance got butchered this time. I'm so, so sorry.
Our first trip was to Kotka, more specifically to the Meretaarium, which sort of displayed all the fishies that swim around the local waters.
Those things were sort of just... standing there Not moving. At all. My mom thought that they weren't real but unfortunately they were. Creepy as fuck, too...
Also, if you ever go there yourself, use the lift while switching between floors. Otherwise you are going to meet this guy in the staircase. And if he isn't just the most horrific thing you have seen.
Also repeat after me: "Fish are friends, not food. Even if they look like this:"
Anyhow. When it comes to puistod (Or "parks" in the language of you, mere mortals), Kotka gets the award for "Most awesome and most mostest." Seriously. There were like 9 of them all sprinkled over the tiny island. The first one we happened onto, was right next to the meretaarium and it contained in it a waterfall.
Well... I never said it was a big one... No actually, I'm just screwing with you, it looked like this:
Man, there are about a million pictures I'd like to show you of those parks because they truly were absolutely gorgeous. But in the interest of sparing your computers (and fingers from having to scroll down all the time) I will try to pace myself and just remind you that you know where to find the rest of the pictures yourself.
Of course, I can't go without the mandatory Weird Picture of Kels aaaand here it is
I'm fucking awesome, petting iron seals and shit...
After that puisto, I managed to yell a city-map machine into submission and in doing that I acquired a map (Actually I didn't yell, the whole process was entirely civil.) We then proceeded to the Maritime Center or whatever the fuck it was. Basically it was a GINORMOUS (And I don't use that word lightly) museum about Everything Even Remotely To Do With The Sea.
It took as a long time and a lot of skimming but we managed to see it all... (I now have major knowledge about the ship St. Michael that sunk near Finnish coast.)
I'll refrain from commenting the next pictures, I'll let that be YOUR job...
I drew the line at trying on corsets. Which is exactly what my dad is about to suggest on the background.
(Yes, I was allowed to try those on, we didn't just bust an exhibit and go crazy all over it...)
By the way, guess who I found?
Our very own Jäälõhkuja Tarmo!!
Unfortunately we couldn't see it from the inside, it was closed for some reason. But no big deal! Have a sculpture of eagles instead (We were, after all, in Kotka)
Also as a quick funsection at the end of this post, these were the sleeping arrangements back in my sisters house:
The blanket is obviously the dog's and the crumpled sheet is where I was oh-so-graciously allowed to sleep. Fun times, kind of miss it.
-Kels
At the Moment, I Have Nothing Against Eagles, But Wait Till I Finish My Cross-Stitching Project..
When my parents had also made it to Finland (with their botanical garden in the car boot), we got to play real tourists.Our first trip was to Kotka, more specifically to the Meretaarium, which sort of displayed all the fishies that swim around the local waters.
Those things were sort of just... standing there Not moving. At all. My mom thought that they weren't real but unfortunately they were. Creepy as fuck, too...
Also, if you ever go there yourself, use the lift while switching between floors. Otherwise you are going to meet this guy in the staircase. And if he isn't just the most horrific thing you have seen.
Now... Let's play a little game I like to call "Find the fishy"

Porvoo by Toto.
Lol. This is getting ridiculous.
So Porvoo is this adorable little city that is apparently celebrating it's 666th birthday... I swear though, that's not the reason for our visit, just an awesome coincidence.
While walking around there, I decided to go mainstream and take one of those "oh god, look at me, I'm holding two boulders apart!" pictures. I did not, however, take into account that my sister would be the one taking the picture and the zoom on the new camera isn't exactly awesome. This is the result.
You have my permission to choke laughing.
You done now? Yeah, have this picture of me being all hipster to counter the terribleness of the last picture.
See, my sister is an idiot. She saw one sculpture of a man and started babbling about how it's the guy who created those awesome candies formerly called "Black man's kisses" (Now I think they're just Suukkoja).
That's me, unknowingly having myself photographed in front of a great Swedofinnish national poet Johan Ludvig Runeberg. As opposed to Lennart Brunberg who bought a bakery from A. W. Lindfors in 1928 and made it even more popular by introducing chocolate to its products.
But no harm done, Runeberg was, after all, the most famous and important person in Porvoo (Or so I gathered from the way absolutely EVERYTHING was named after him..)
The city itself was absolutely gorgeous, peppered with small green areas (or *parks*, but I find that classification to be too mainstream..)
In need on sustenance and not finding any fast food "restaurants", we stumbled upon a mexican sort of place (more like walked past the place 5 times and finally deciding to eat there.)
Spicy EVERYTHING. Too bad neither or us had instagram.... Anyhow, the food was awesomedeliciousohgodmoreplease and I got all the spicy stuff because my sister doesn't like it. Nom!!!
-Sassy and well-fed Kels over and out.

Rolling in the Potholes.
I'll let you figure out what song I'm thinking of now for yourselves...
The skirt is adorable, the shoes are weird and the top is too long. I know. Loving the hair tho.
Also, I'm going to be a lazy ass and write about the pictures in the order fotoalbum is giving them to me. I don't know how I managed to get them fucked up but nuffing I can do about it now.
Forget what I said about the hair. Anyway this is a map of the hole thingies that you get to see after you've hiked through a trail of treachery that is just trying to slip you up at any second... (Yeah, I went there in a skirt. I could've done it in heels too, if I wanted. I'm awesome, brah.)
You can't really tell from this angle, but it's a giant rock with a giant awesome face. You can see the mouth and teeth but the eyes are sort of lost to overexposure.
I also hate stairs. Just my luck I guess..
What's with the overabundance of my fab face you ask? What ISN'T I counter.
And this is what we hiked all that way for:
Lol, just kidding, if that was all there was, the next picture would be of me trying to drown my sister in it for making me climb all those steps in the terrible horrible wet heat.
Now THAT'S a pothole. About a meter in diameter and 4 meters deep. Imagine finding this in front of your driveway.
Or in fact this:
Jättiläisen Kuhnepytty. 4,3 meters in diameter and a whopping 10 meters deep. I'm not bluffing!
I find it a very nice touch that they have propped a ladder into it. I wonder how many people "accidentally" fall in every year?
-Kels.
And You Thought The Potholes on Your Homestreet Were Bad...
Hiidekirnut. These great, big, masssive "potholes" (I'm not making this up, the infosigns there said that the things were potholes in english) in an awesome-looking forest thing. You get to see them at your own risk. If you fall in... Sucks to be you.The skirt is adorable, the shoes are weird and the top is too long. I know. Loving the hair tho.
