Yet another…
Unbelievable what kinds of ‘personal tests’ are out there on the net. I’ve never screamed in a microphone so far… But I hate punk […]

Sanctificetur
Light born in perfection, Blue, white and black. Never has a human seen Anything so beautiful. A rain drop falls, so slowly That it almost doesn’t. Finally The world stops turning, For a second – For three eternities and forever. A higher being listens to the Choir, I’m stumbling through silence. An archangel levitates towards

All The Right Reasons
It’s only been released about a month ago, and already it has become one of my favourite albums. Well, Nickelback’s my favourite band, so that explains it. Although I was a bit disappointed by All The Right Reasons after the ingenious The Long Road, it’s still a great album. And my up-to-now favourite Nickelback song

Turn, sad world

Escape to Witch Mountain
It’s kind of weird. Did you ever see a movie that you remembered through your whole life? I keep remembering scenes out of a movie I saw when I was about 10 years old, and I only saw it once. I don’t actually know if I always remembered those scenes, or if this only started

Green Light
“Possibly it had occurred to him that the colossal significance of that light had now vanished forever. Compared to the great distance that had separated him from Daisy it had seemed very near to her, almost touching her. It had seemed as a star to the moon. Now it was again a green light on

Just looked up HDD (yes, I know what it means in computer terminology, but I wanted to know what the Heating Degree Day is) […]

To Where You Are
I think this song by Josh Groban fits this sad day.

They stole Christmas
There are still about 7 weeks left to Christmas and already I can’t wait for it anymore. It’s the first time in years that I’m looking forward to Christmas. I haven’t liked that celebration with a religious touch that is completely lost in our modern world for years. Who knows what Christmas is about? The

I Am David
I’ve just finished watching a movie I didn’t want to watch for a long time: I Am David. Some of you may have heard of this film, or the novel by Anne Holm on which it is based. I read the book some years ago, and, honestly, I didn’t like it. But, I decided to

Long gone and forgotten
Exactly eight months. It isn’t even a year. We have forgotten her already. The media doesn’t cover the story anymore. Other news became more interesting. More important. More present. Do you remember the woman who fought against death? Do you remember President Bush jr changing laws to save her life? Do you remember a family

Ben’s 20th
Friday October 28th. That was quite an evening. Who would have thought one could have so much fun with people one doesn’t know very well? Actually, I was a bit sceptical going to a party where I didn’t even know if there were any people I knew, beside Ben of course. But it was his

Check that out
There are many blogs that aren’t even worth the few kilobytes the HTML pages take up. But a few minutes ago, I found a blog that’s worth every bit and byte of space and of reading every single entry: BildBlog.de. Yes, it’s about the famous German newspaper – if you dare call it a ‘newspaper’.

Best of the blogs
This weblog was started with the goal of creating a weblog that is different and does not simply function as a banal diary for its authors. Coincidentally, I’ve now discovered that there is already an award which is dedicated to the most outstanding weblogs out there, there even is a category for RWB (Reporters Without

Mass versus individual
One of my favourite quotes: “(…) We are all explorers, driven to know what’s over the horizon, what’s beyond our own shores. And yet, the more I’ve experienced, the more I’ve learned that – no matter how far we travel or how fast we get there – the most profound discoveries are not necessarily beyond

Just like a pill
There are songs that are known to everyone, songs where most of the time we can’t even name the singer or band who sung it, and yet could sing the song – or at least the chorus – without thinking about it. And there are those songs that have a special importance to us. Songs

Apologies
Some functions of the site might be unavailable within the next days, or the whole page might look kind of chaotic and without a real layout. This is due to the fact that I’m currently working on my own design for the blog and am replacing and testing the template files over the next days.

The Drama
It’s amazing how many good bands are out there without ever anyone noticing them, or at least, without having the mainstream absorb it as it does with nearly everything. In most cases bands are better as long as they don’t belong to the pop culture, often they get standardized as soon as they have a

Individual versus Mass
Yesterday evening I read some old emails I exchanged with a good friend of mine some weeks ago. We had discussed the fact that sometimes we feel like aliens in our own world. Nothing special about that, I guess most people have experienced this. But when I was sitting in the bus today, I decided

The sadness of losing friends
It’s a weird day. I don’t really know what keeps my thoughts turning round in circles, without seeming to have a particular goal, they simply do. Perhaps it’s because I’m a bit tired. Not in a physical sense. My soul’s tired, which, in a sense, doesn’t surprise me. Before I see anyone of you making

And now, Hollywood?
It’s a fan film. Yet another. But not quite. It’s the first Finnish full-length sci-fi parody. It’s an ingenious movie that took seven years of work before it was finished a few weeks ago. It’s an ambitious project. Its goal: to become the most watched […]

sick (mind)
The letters on the keyboard are dancing. Everything turns so fast. Too fast to get a short glimpse at it. The remote control is laughing at me every time I try to take it. The television’s been showing the same program for hours. […]
