the return of the great

Location: Vantaa
Mood: Confused

It's been a while since I've felt like doing ... this.

Writing. To you, the world. To be completely honest, I still don't but I don't want to keep my life entirely unreported either.

Let's see, the last time I wrote was on Saturday. After that I've bought a lot of christmas presents, celebrated both of my siblings' (Emil, Dec. 16 and Anna-Maria, Dec. 17) birthdays. Yesterday evening went out with Juha, my long-term friend who's been around since seventh grade (which was something like 1995). We walked around Helsinki for several hours and solved most of the world's problems, in theory. Unfortunately our memories had been wiped after a night's sleep so the world will have to wait for being rescued a little longer.

Also chatted some while on the phone with Jennitys and Irina. I've also been playing a lot of cards with Anna-Maria. Some time was spent with Emil, too.

I also saw the movie Y tu mamá también (Ja äitiäs kans) on Wednesday. Tomorrow I'll probably go see L' Adversaire (Valhe) with Riitta, whom I last saw in the summer.

I just hate the fact that I need to write HTML entities by hand. Or actually, the page does validate even if I don't HTML encode ä's as ä's ... because I have declared the character set. So I don't need to convert all ä's into ä's then? What's the deal? What about if I use a computer/OS which uses a different character encoding? Please help the confused little me.

Confused.

What is this?

A Christian student writing about life, faith, software etc. both in English and in Finnish. Some photos and poetry, too. Not thinking much about whether I'm being interesting or not. See also my work blog: Moodle Quiz UI

Please comment. Anything :).

Helsinki time, GMT+2.

My favourite music for you
