Korean movie, possibly the most twisted I've ever seen. Really good though, I warmly recommend it. It starts with a man being locked up in a room for fifteen years without knowing why, without anybody even speaking to him. Sitting alone in a room watching TV for fifteen years will give you two things. A thirst for revenge and a whole lot of trivial knowledge. It goes downhill from there right to

An advantage to picking something you know next to nothing about to do your thesis project about is how much new stuff you get to learn. Today I had to teach myself enough Fortran and awk to create something that would take a number of unformatted output files from COAMPS (Coupled Ocean Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System) and make something readable out of them.

I'm not so angry anymore, it's hard to keep up a proper seething rage for more than a day or two. I shall use my dad's old bike for now, he got a new recently.In other bike related news, I helped Aki (one of the Japanese exchange students) put her new bike together. Perhaps 'helped' isn't the right word, since I did everything except hold the bike steady and lifting the back wheel for checking

The real world, in the form of serious studies that many might call mindboggling (I believe my mind to be almost unbogglable by now, still very confuddlable though), is coming at me fast and I have too much vacationist momentum to turn! So unless reality decides to take evasive action at the last moment (empirical studies have shown this to be improbable) a crash seems *Smith voice*

I just cleaned my windows. Turned out I had a small spider cemetary without even knowing it. Why would spiders want to crawl in around my windows to die? There were a few live ones too, but I'm not sure if they were there to die or just to mourn their departed kin.Other things to do today: Make an eye, go to my little brother's for dinner.Listening to: The Wallflowers - God Don't Make Lonely Girls

I didn't know we did good full length animated movies in Europe so I was pleasantly surprised by Corto Maltese. Perhaps not a great movie, the story feels a little rushed and diffuse in places, but very well made. It is set in eastern Asia after the Russian revolution where Venetian adventurer/pirate Corto Maltese, backed by his friend Rasputin and a secret Chinese society is attempting to steal

I think I still have the pizza flyer where I first read about it around somewhere (both because of that and to remind me of the outrageous prices on pizza in Japan).I'm glad Batou got such a central role in this movie, he's definitely worth it. There's a strong Bladerunner vibe to many scenes that I very much like and the more surreal episodes fit in well.Animation-wise it is pure awesomeness,

So I added this guy who wanted some help with Blender to my messenger contact list yesterday. He seemed a decent enough person... but then I woke up at six this morning to a screen filled with raving children throwing insults at each other. They of course proceeded to try to insult me (I say try, because I can't say that I really feel properly insulted by little ones implying that I'm homosexual.

I just watched Kill the Last Geisha as well as all the extra material and, damn it, I miss you guys!Anyways, Swedish summer weather is being its usual unpredictable self. We had probably about 30-40 mm of rain today, it was absolutely pouring for long periods with lighter rain in between, then it turned bright and sunny in the evening. Because of the weather I never went hiking last week, but now

鮫肌男と桃尻女, a delightful action comedy full of dysfunctional weirdo characters. Well worth seeing, but looking for any deeper messages in it will probably be fruitless.I don't really have much to say, just thought it was time to write something ;).

I don't know. At least I've helped clean out the garage so I've not really wasted the day. Did take the time to draw (or rather finish drawing) this to practice some inking and play with hatching.

I never really had one before, nothing more than glorified stubble at least. Something rather obvious that I just hadn't thought about is that a beard, just like your hair, dries slower than your face.

Never went out with the boat since the weather, which had been perfect for two weeks, decided to change for the worse. Being caught out in a thunderstorm in an open boat isn't much fun.So I've stayed home and come up with other ways to waste my time. Like trying to read through Markus' manga collection... or at least a book or two (my pda is finally getting some use again for looking up kanji).

Going over to a friend for lunch at 11 so I don't think I'll sleep anytime soon.The reason for this is that the deadline for an art contest I wanted to enter was at midnight... US pacific time.

It's probably got much more text than most of you are interested in, but there are also pictures to be seen.To avoid putting way too many links to pictures in my blog I've made it as a simple pdf document.

I'm back. Actually I came back yesterday morning, but I didn't turn my computer on until today since I spent most of yesterday sleeping (and that still didn't interfere with my getting a good night's sleep afterwards). It's been a good trip but I'll tell more about it once I've got the promised pictures up.To those who have gotten postcards: Sorry if they're a bit weird, I wrote most of them late

Finally I feel like I've got everything prepared. Or at least I don't think I've forgotten anything critical.I think audio casettes weren't around long enough to make a very large imprint in the historical junk spectrum. Since the car I'll be driving for 4000 km or so doesn't have a cd player I've been digging through the ancient strata of broken toys, floppy disks and things too dull or just too

The exam today went well I think and going down to Stockholm to talk to my professors for my final project (the Jupiter zonal band thingy) also went well. Now I'm well and truly exhausted and shall get some well deserved sleep. Or I shall try to, I'm currently a little jumpy.I read a short story called One Thing About the Night by Terry Dowling an hour or so ago and it just won't leave my

Everybody's got bad days I suppose, but it sucks to get one on the day of a ridiculously difficult exam in general relativity and cosmology. I spent five hours feeling stupid, stressed and frustrated, given another five hours I might actually have done ok. Now all I can do is aim to do better in atmosphere physics on Wednesday and then maybe consider writing up my cosmology grade in August.I went

Sometimes you read something that you think should be read by as many people as possible just because it might conceivably make the world a little betterThis is one of those times.I just came back from a party with a bunch of asian exchange students a little while ago. Been eating many delicious Korean dishes that I can't remember the names of (and probably not spell them if I did remember). My

Nothing really worthy of mention has happened since the last post. The weather's gotten a little les stable, but we still get some sun almost every day and spring is progressing nicely.I added a couple of new links on the left:Polykarbon BBS is an art forum I kind of like. You won't find the best artists there, but it's got a relaxed atmosphere and there are some very good people hanging around.

I finally got a reply from one of the supervising professors for that Jupiter project I'm hoping to do for my graduation thesis thingy (some day I shall find out what it's called in English) this fall and it seems likely that I'll get it. I still have to go meet the guy and discuss it some more, but it's looking promising. Suddenly I feel like I have something of a goal again. I should be able to

Time for an update, even if there's nothing much to say. No sketches worthy of showing, but at least I have a couple of quick Blender models: a recurve bow and a hypodermic arrow. The idea for the arrow was stolen from a short story by R. Garcia y Robertson.Went to a concert last weekend, some Borodin, some Mozart and a whole bunch of Tchaikovsky (did I spell that right?). It was very good,

Valborg has come and gone, I've been wearing my chicken yellow jump suit and made fun of drunk students. Kana had her parents over from Japan, their first time outside the country, and I spent much of the day with them. It must have been quite a shock, to come from quiet, polite Japan and get dumped in the middle of tens of thousands of more than slightly intoxicated Swedish students. They took

I usually don't like to show unfinished stuff in my blog, but this animation came out good enough that I'll make an exception. It's encoded with XviD so you'll need that codec to see it. I've spent way too much time designing that thing and still more will go into it before it's done (unless it goes the way of so many other projects and ends up in the 'unfinished' bin).

Made this this morning. Hardly original, but I think it came out rather nice.Today was quite a lovely day. I spent a few hours out walking in the Nosten forest. Brought a sketchbook and pencils, but didn't really draw much. I think I'll bring my hunter's backpack (the one with the foldable seat) next time since convenient rocks and logs aren't always available around interesting motifs and I

"I got busted, so I used my one phone call to dedicate a song for you on the radio..."It begins like that. I just heard it on the radio (on the way home from driving mom to the airport), but the news cut in before I could hear what the song or artist was called. If you happen to know, do tell.

Had a morning lecture on Thursday so I had to get up at seven, then no lectures at all on Friday so I stayed up until three or four Thursday night and got up around eleven then didn't go to bed until almost two even though I had to get up at a quarter to seven for tennis on Saturday. Somehow stayed awake late on Saturday anyway so I got up at a quarter past ten today. I really need to even this

I normally don't remember anything of my dreams, so now when one has finally stayed with me I feel like sharing it. Or at least what little I remember.The reason I remember anything of it is that it finally got disturbing enough to wake me. Not really a nightmare, just a really weird dream.The most noticeable detail of this dream were the ever present shrimp. Not whole shrimp, just the meaty part

Two new courses starting tomorrow, Gravitation & Cosmology (about general relativity) and Atmosphere Physics. The first class starts at 8:15 so i really should be sleeping by now. I am not for the simple reason that I'm not tired.

They had a Japanese night at the Kalmar Nation pub yesterday. I knew some people I know would be there and figured I might go out and be social for once. Unfortunately the ones I know well were stuck in the kitchen cooking for most of the evening (the place, like all the pubs of all the nations, is run by students) so I made small talk with friends of friends for a couple of hours, had some

I always get these odd bits of left-over time before leaving for something I don't want to be late for. I've already made sure I'll have plenty of time and leaving even earlier would just leave me sitting down by the station house for half an hour instead.I've packed everything I could think of, probably too much for just two days but at least I don't think anything's been forgotten.

Isn't the Internet wonderful? I just decided to go to Oslo for a couple of days and within forty minutes I have chatted to Kana and convinced her to come along (didn't take much convincing since she didn't have any plans for Easter either), checked the bus times and prices (I'm too late to get the pre-buy discount for the trip there, but not for the trip back), found a hostel and sent an e-mail

Going in a few minutes to meet a guy about doing simulations of Jupiter's atmosphere for my diploma project thingy (I don't know what the English word should be, in Swedish it's 'examensarbete' and it should take one semester of full time studies). I'm pretty excited as this sounds like much more fun than studying non-linear waves in plasmas (it does to me at least).I shall now go shave in order

My parents came home from Åre and left for Nice a few days later, so I've the house to myself again. Not that I actually occupy more than the kitchen and my room in the basement. It got warm today, up around nine or ten degrees, so all the pretty snow is melting to slush. Haven't been out more than to fetch the mail (and walk two houses away with a misdelivered letter) and paper. I finished

Nothing of much interest to report.Monday I spent most of the day out in the forest, brought my little field stove and cooked a simple lunch just to see that I could still use it. A good sized piece of snowy forest makes warm food taste so much better ^^Wednesday I was out sliding down slopes on a thick plastic mat together with Kana.Been years since i did anything of the sort, so it was great

I'm out on the other side of tired now, so I'm almost alive.At around two am last night I realized that I should really go to bed since I was getting up at seven to play tennis.

I've spent alot of time in Photoshop lately. My latest eater of many hours is a painting called Planet Queen after the T. Rex song of the same name. I was listening to this song while happening to look at some Masamune Shirow paintings of girls with big guns.

Then I went for a walk.Weather's gone from bitterly cold to warm in just a day (of course the nice winter weather ends just as I have time to enjoy it), but it hasn't had time to really get muddy yet so it was a pleasant walk.There is one thing on the front of every major Swedish newspaper today and for once it's good news (and as you all know, this

So tired of studying! I'm also so nervous that I feel sick. Not so much because I don't think I know the material, but because I've put too much pressure on my self. As much as I've studied for this it just has to go well tomorrow or I'll... well, I'll feel depressed and angry.Today's been a bright sunny day and I've sat holed up in a small study room at Ångström for nine hours.

Been spending hours in front of a blackboard today. At first it was just to get a bit of practice for Monday, doing your derivations on a board is very different from doing them on paper. But it didn't take me more than a couple of hours to decide that I like blackboards better. When I write something on paper it has a feeling of permanency, so I try to do too much in my head to make sure I don't

So did I get to take my bath and turn the world off for awhile? You're all wondering now, I know.The answer is of course no.Why? Dad called me from the airport, having forgotten his ticket and could I drive out with it? So off I went in a hurry, dragging myself and this big lump of metal halfway down to Stockholm to deliver this little piece of paper. Strange world. I got there in time (barely)

Seems we'll get to keep the nice winter weather for a few more days. It was said that it'd be warm this weekend, but yesterday the meteorologists changed their minds and now it's going to be decently cold. So the snow and (since it's been cold and warm in off and on for awhile) ice will stay. This morning it was about -14 C. Not terribly cold, but enough that I like to take a few extra minutes

Those who know me know that I'm not very fond of shopping, it's actually more of a dislike. Grocery shopping is ok, it can even be fun sometimes. But shopping for clothes can be such a pain that I tend to avoid it most of the time (which is then of course reflected in a not very interesting wardrobe). Today however, by pure chance, I happened upon a shoe sale. I wouldn't normally have gone in,

Still no pictures of my hair (I haven't quite gotten to the point where I'm taking pictures of myself in the mirror just to show off my new hair style ;). But I thought I'd post some stuff I made recently, since somebody asked.I finished something I hadn't worked on for almost two months after I got Photoshop today. Alot of it was made in Blender and the thing on the banner in the background was

Sure sure, I'll post a picture of my hair once I have one. As for art (though I use that term loosely here) I can only post my digital work at the moment since I'm without scanner. And since I don't like to post old stuff it'll have to wait until I have something new. Maybe by next weekend if I get PS tomorrow.Now what I wanted to mention today was that I read in todays paper that we swedes drink

For the first time in four years or so I had my hair cut short yesterday. Not so much for the sake of appearance (I now resemble Dr. Evil more than Chewie, though I was never all that close to either) as for convenience. It is sad that I no longer have any use for the nice hair brush I got for Christmas, but I think I'll get over it... ok, I'm over it.On a completely unrelated topic, jeans are

I just rewatched it. It's been a few years since last and I must say I liked it much better this time. I don't know if it is because I'm not quite as overawed by the animation anymore (knowing a bit about it helps both to understand how much work goes into something like this and to make it seem a little bit less like magic), but I liked the story much better than I remembered especially the

I wrote a rather lengthy post yesterday thanking Nick for the cookies. Of course it simply disappeared into some big electronic void when I pressed the publish button. So now I'm writing again, still trying to thank Nick for the cookies, still wondering why he would happen to use an information leaflet for "Plan B emergency contraceptive" as packing material. Did you bake these yourself Nick?

Since it seems everybody else has done it: what flavor pocky are you? [c] sugardew ... riiiight Classes start tomorrow. I'm certainly taking plasma physics, but for my other course this period I still haven't decided. Of course I should have applied for it several months ago, but the rules tend to be fairly flexible and I like to check at least the first lecture before deciding. The ones I'm

Today I got dad's help to go get all my boxes and some of my furniture from storage and the rest of the day has been spent sorting, arranging and disposing stuff. Still a bunch of boxes left. My lovely corner desk is finally re-assembled. There is no proper corner to put it in so I've had to settle for putting it against a wall and the back of a bookshelf. When looking through my old money jar I

Just got home again from Åre. My legs are sore (though not as sore as my right arm because of a rather spectacular fall two days ago) from skiing and didn't really want to walk home from the station with my luggage at five something in the morning. But neither did I want to call and wake one of my brothers less than five hours after they got back from France. The trip home went smoother than

Everybody seems to be listing presents in their blogs, so I'll toss in a couple that I particularly like. Firstly, the official LOTR Forces of Dark 2005 calendar now hanging over my computer corner in my new room waiting for the first page to be turned come the new year. Got it from my older brother. My younger brother moved out last week and I started moving into his old room today, tonight will

Seems I've gotten the ADSL connection working again, for now at least. Anyway, I'm back from hell bringing good grades and a bit of post-traumatic stress ;), but no other symptoms or souvenirs. The Fluid Mechanics exam was scary, but after 40 minutes of furious scribbling at a blackboard while the Big Angry Russian was seeking out all the weak points in my knowledge he finally gave me a five :D.

Blogger has been acting strange for a while, I haven't been able to put up new posts or even change my template (which is why everything is still pink ^_^) Right now I'm in the middle of the exam period from Hell. It's not just that the courses are hard, but the exams are close together and I have lectures to attend and reports to write right up in the middle of the exam weeks. Still, it should

Normally my scheduled stuff is supposed to fit between eight and five, but tomorrow and the following two Mondays I'll be in the computer lab for Fluid Dynamics from five to nine in the evening. There's not really much to say against "this is compulsory, be there or fail". Not that I really have anything against putting the lab in the evening, but putting it there because our schedules are too

Yesterday I hadn't seen any snow at all this winter and it was already mid november. But tonight the weather decided it had to make up for lost time all at once. It started snowing sometime around midnight, just around when I was going to bed. It's pretty to watch the snow fall past the streetlight below my window even if I know I'll have to bike through it in the morning. Of course I had a

A new version is out! Read This! So much neat new features. And I haven't even had time to learn the new stuff in 2.34 yet. At this pace Blender will not only catch up with the big commercial apps out there, it'll leave them in the dust. And at a download size of 4.5 MB there's no reason for anyone not to have it on their computer. All I can wish for now is more time to play with it, I haven't

It seems likeable people either don't ever get to the point where they might become president or they become unlikeable long before then.

My little brother finally found an apartment, he'll be moving out within a month. And since I'm currently homeless, dad asked if I'd like to move into his room when he moves out. If I do I'd be staying there until I graduate in about a year and a half or at least until I know if I'm staying in Uppsala (right now I feel like I might not). There doesn't seem to be much of a point in getting a place

I'm starting to feel it. I either have my computer in here on the floor (where I can connect to the internet) or on the tiny bedside table in the guest room, neither of those places is suitable for working with the tablet and without it I just can't do anything interesting at with this thing. RedEye is probably as bored as I. Listening to: John Lee Hooker - Mr. Lucky

Went to a bunch of lectures today to try to decide what classes I want to take this period (from now to christmas). I need to take at least three to get enough credits, this didn't use to be a problem, but the courses have gotten to a level where it can be kind of tough to find time to study for more than two of them at the same time. This is why I decided not to take Classical Electrodynamics (

North Americans use half of the medicines sold in the world toaday, so naturally every major manufacturer wants a piece of that big (200 billion dollar) cake. To make it even more tempting consumers in the US gladly (I assume since four out of five prescriptions are requested by the patient) munch 70 % of the new drugs, where the most money is to be made. However, this cake is guarded by the FDA

This is funny in a somewhat disturbing way. I can just imagine a middle aged Japanese man entering a noisy and brightly lit pachinko hall only to find his favorite Hitler machine already taken, with good grace he settles for a Moses instead. My quantum mechanics exam yesterday didn't go too well. Or maybe I just put too high demands on myself, but after sitting coped up with my books for almost

1950 years ago to the day young Nero, then not yet 17 years old, was made emperor of Rome. Among other more or less wacky things, he had his mother (after several intricate but failed attempts) and two wives murdered, Rome set on fire (I finally understand the pun 'Nero burning ROM')and large numbers of people, among them many christians, put to death on loose grounds during his 14 years in power

My brother has come up with more things he wants to do while rebuilding. This time it involves breaking up the entire floor in our home, up 'til now the work has been confined to the bathroom, kitchen and the office portion of the building (with the brief exception of changing all the windows).

I'm glad I bought that copy of Physics Handbook yesterday. I mean I'm glad I bought it yesterday as opposed to sometime last week since now I can still return it to the shop and get my money back. My old copy arrived from Japan today together with a number of other books. I also got this sexy japanese mailbag that they all came in. It had also picked up a small nail and a couple of bright yellow

It was developed as a tool to help the lump of meat under it to hunt moose, run from enraged bears and get as many offspring as possible. In my 23 years I've never hunted a moose, never seen an angry bear and never... well whatever. Instead I'm trying to use it to study quantum mechanics!

The word you're looking for is pink I believe. Maybe i went a little overboard ^_^ I'll blame it on only getting five hours of sleep two nights in a row and on an upset stomach. I showered at the Ångström Laboratory this morning, this does not mean that I was influenced by my japanese lab mates only that the bathroom here doesn't even have a floor now, much less a shower.

I swear it was right there when I went to bed around one last night, but this morning when I woke up it was gone. I suppose this means they've started working on the bathroom and I'll have to go hiking to the other end of the house to go to the toilet and go home to my parents' to shower and do my laundry for the next week or two.
