A delicate mix of amusement, annoyance and tiredness

As everybody knows, for us Harry Potter fans the 21th July has been a great day. Unfortunately I wasn't around yesterday, so my blog may be somewhat late compared to other HP7 blogs. However, as somebody of you already knew, I am from Finland, and therefore the book was released 2:01 local time. That makes quite obvious I got it in the morning, because in Finland there were only six stores throughout the land that were open at night selling the books. Well, so I got it yesterday. Believe it or not, this is the first book ever I'm going to read in English. There are some words I don't know, so I have to check into the dictionary once in a while. I read about half the book in one day, and that's quite much in my opinion for a newcomer. Well, I'm not going to spoil anything to you in here… Just read the book!

Also, this is nothing SO important, but I got quite pissed off yesterday. I was watching the TV, and the channel was The Voice, a music video channel. Suddenly the song Timbaland: The Way I Are popped up. I got so frustrated how people can't even speak proper English when they sing. "The Way I'm Are" was repeated so many times, I was feeling sick. But that's enough of that.

When it comes to my projects, I can say Tank Wars 3D is not frozen, although it seems so. I've been doing some paper work, sketching the weapon stats and levels' unlock statuses. I think I'll not release the next beta until a while, so just keep on waiting.

And the final thing. I can't understand how reading a foreign book can cause a headache. Usually, if I get a headache, it comes because of I've been watching too much TV or been on computer too much. Yesterday I just read the HP7. Read, read and read. Then, when I got to bed, I just couldn't sleep because of the giga headache. Fortunately it went over quite quickly.

Thank you for your presence. UltimateSephiroth over and out.

You're the first person I've ever heard saying the films rock. The books are way better. Always.
