• Splenetic

"Takahikiä ei ole paikka, vaan mielentila."

One hell of a school day. Why is it that everything seems so much funnier when one is tired? We experienced this today. First we had three hours of mathematichs from eight through eleven (seriously, we went through the Roman numbers and counting without a calculator as if we were still in the first grade!) and after that two hours of Nursing Basics' theory preceding the Nursing Basics' lab classes. The beginning of the NB theory summarises the atmosphere from noon to the moment we got out of the school; I don't know who said what but as a result H, sitting next to me, began to laugh out loud completely out of control, infected it to pretty much the rest of the class, me included (it still makes me grin). The general mood was similar during the labs (I mean, really, whose bright idea was it to put the labs for Friday afternoon?); someone said something a little funny and people burst out laughing like it would be the most hilarious thing they've ever heard.

I've been wondering something. The statistics are either lying or this blog is actually being read every day by someone? Who are you people? What exactly are your motivations? What do you expect to find? Tell me, in any language you wish (no actual understanding guaranteed). I'm curious!

My sister suggested I come up with an anthology of 'spleneticisms', ie. some things I've said in a subclause that sound so very philosophical and deep and profound and intelligent. This one made her split her sides laughing and she mentioned it a couple of times later.

"Takahikiä ei ole paikka, vaan mielentila." (Instert any outback small village with a decreasing number of inhabitants you're familiar with in the beginning of the sentence.)

I have no idea where that sentence came from in the first place, and I most certainly haven't got the slightest clue what the hell it even means.

You know, they say an apple a day keeps the doctor away. I think I should eat more apples... ;)
