No art for awhile, guys.

Tue Jun 16, 2009, 7:16 PM
  • Mood: Angsty
  • Listening to: Metal of Okkuseman
  • Reading: The Kalevala - Elias Lönnrot... ... still
  • Playing: My C-ass-io keyboard. I still need a Korg.
  • Eating: Ihop soon, or something.
Yeah, I don't plan to be getting on much of late, someone's passed away in immediate family and things are a little chaotic. Everyone's a bit shaken up. I'm in Oklahoma again, this time for the funeral... we went down the same road that we did getting to Ok. City for the concert. That made me feel comfortable. I blasted Nightwish in respect, then set the mp3 on random. But we're about to go eat, everyone's out the door but me, and I don't have my jacket or hat on. :XD: I'll try to get on and keep up with things.

with love,
Iivari

Interests:

:bulletblue: Music; I play the keyboard (Casio WK-1800) and accoustic guitar (learning the latter.) I'm going to be purchasing a Korg RK-100 Keytar soon, in pretty good condition.
:bulletpurple: History; Namely Finnish, Scandinavian, and German history, but also Scottish/Irish/English/Gaelic to a degree.
:bulletwhite: Languages; I'm learning Finnish, and I plan to learn German, Norwegian, and possibly Swedish. German and Finnish I can already hold a basic conversation with, although I typo often in Finnish.
:bulletblue: Instruments; Have you ever seen an Electrolyre? They're fascinating! [link] What about a Jouhikko? A Kantele? Zither? I love fascinating intruments, especially ethnic ones.
:bulletpurple: Mythology; Norse fascinates me the most, but I love hearing about most things foreign to white America. (Meaning Native American mythology/culture is not out of the question, some of which interests me.)
:bulletwhite: Friends; I love talking to people about common interests.
:bulletblue: Finland; In case I didn't cover it, I love every aspect of that country.
:bulletpurple: Geography; Maps and features. Gotta love it.
:bulletwhite: Trolls; And similar mythical folk. Gotta be the right trolls, though. Ever played World of Warcraft? I like those trolls.
I also very, very fond of :iconkivutar:'s troll artwork. It's to die for. :XD:
:bulletblue: Nature/Environment Sciences; Ecofriendly is the way to go, and biomes are very fascinating.
:bulletpurple: Creative Writing; Saving the best for last, this is what I do the most and plan to make a living off of. R.A.Salvatore is my rival.

Least Favorite Bands/Artists:

:bulletwhite: Evenescence/Amy Lee
:bulletblue: Avril Lavigne
:bulletpurple: Gwen Stefanie
:bulletwhite: Pink
:bulletblue: the All American Rejects (and anything that sounds like them)

:bulletblue: Lostprophets (Nice way to ruin a great name... stick it together into one word. Nightwish excluded.)
:bulletpurple: Mudd
:bulletwhite: Bullet for My Valentine
:bulletblue: Any Rap with the exception of Linkin Park, who are only half rap and whom I kinda dig.
:bulletpurple: The majority of Country music.
:bulletwhite: Within Temptation. I admit I never gave them a real chance, but... ;P

Least Favorite Movie:

Very nice. There are alot of people out there doing Nightwish artwork. :) They're a popular target for that, especially Tuomas.

Hey kid,
yep, youre right about. Boy, I have ben gettin a LOT of attention with my poetry. There is a lady artist in Brazil and one in Bulgaria that both asked permission to use a poem in thier art, a partnership. They picked a poem and are working on a piece with my words on it and as the central subject. A phot guy asked if he could use one of mine on his page to offset a photo he took, its pretty neat. All positive fun.
Ill talk to you later, but I miss ya
Dad
