"Minä lähden Pohjois-Karjalaan..."
I can't take part in Hauraita Unelmia next weekend because Minttu-Aaria will be in Kitee.
This time for real.
(For those who have no idea what I am talking about, Hauraita Unelmia (Fragile Dreams) is a city-LARP campaign in which my character is Minttu-Aaria, eldest of the Susimaa siblings and the heir of the obligation to fight against evil of her family, a kind of female Van Helsing so to say. :p She lives in Kitee in her grandmother's old house with her cousin Anna, gathering herbs and practicing all kinds of "white witch" type of things and goes to Turku from time to time to check on her younger sisters so they won't get themselves into too much trouble.)
Anyways... It's funny how life sometimes goes like that.
So the deal is: Our family friends have a summer cottage in Tohmajärvi (that lies right next to Kitee.) The last time I was there was when I was still in my mother's womb. They are going there again this summer and they asked my dad and little brother (who is their Godson) to come along. But since Mikael is off to his friend's summer cottage he can't go, so... :D
So I'll jump on train on Tuesday, destination being the railwaystation of Kitee, and won't be back until on Sunday.
Life truly is funny sometimes.
I'd like to point out, though, that I'm not going there to stalk any long-haired metal musicians.
And it's more likely that I'll be eaten alive by mosquitoes than that I'll run into any of NW's members anyway. :p
I'm going because I have planned to go to Eastern Finland during this summer anyway, something is drawing me to that direction (and no, that something isn't called Holopainen :p). And I need to get out of the town anyway. This is a perfect chance.
Being the optimistic person I am, I however can't help thinking that some malevolent Higher Power is laughing their ass off at me again. *dry chuckle*
But enough of that topic for now.
We had a nice NW-themed evening yesterday at Veera's. She sang NW with her beautiful soprano, we watched EoaE with her and Timo (and it wasn't as shaking experience this time) and shared NW memories. Timo beat us both, being an old school fan. :p
And tomorrow it will be Veera and Ella's birthday, partyparty. *grin*
