Windmills

Far from the worn path of reason,
Further away from the sane,
He battles his shadows and demons
Fighting to light the way.

And the dust and the dirt cloud his vision,
Onward he rides unafraid.
He fights the good fight for good reason,
A star that refuses to fade.

Still he braves his path
While windmills only laugh...

She was wounded and wild when he found her,
He saw her through a child's eyes.
She fell for the spell he was under,
Each day a brand new surprise.

And she watches with strange curiosity,
She wants so much to believe.
Trying to break the chains of reality,
Dying to set herself free...

Still he braves his path
While windmills only laugh...

Though he may appear tattered and broken,
His clothes are shabby and bare,
Still he glows like the light from a candle
With passion of one who still cares.

There was always a rhyme to the reason
Peering out from tired eyes.
The truth finally came in treason,
So wrong, but so justified...
So wrong but so justified...
Windmills close their eyes...

Wow. This is confusing.
I have three of my fandoms clashing viciously inside my head:

-Pirates of the Caribbean, but also its sister dimension, the world of The Legend of the Red Wyrm and The Siren's Yearning. Which, by the way, is a playground of imagination created by me and expanded by Ella in which the alter-egos of (or more like characters based on) several Finnish metal musicians plus our circle of friends happily roam the seven seas.
Should really start writing The Siren's Yearning some day as well and just stop worrying about historical accuracy and whatnot. Bloody perfectionism.

-Buffyverse, as I've recently re-watched some of the old episodes of Buffy and Angel and it made me realize once again why I loved it so much. Well, the early seasons at least, as it started to go pretty weird after Buffy's fourth season and I'm still bitter about how Angel ended. :p

-Naturally enough, I suppose, Harry Potter.
I've stayed out of the fandom for pretty much a whole year now. I went to see The Order of the Phoenix knowing virtually nothing about it beforehand (well, a lot less than about the previous one, anyway) and today I managed to buy The Deathly Hallows completely unspoiled (though as soon as I got home, of course I had to click a link to a picture in [profile] hp_art_daily which pretty much spoiled one of the people who will die in the book. Oh well, I suspected he might.)

It's probably not the best time of the month to start reading that book as I'm in quite emotional state. Last night I got teary-eyed when I read Buffy's final speech in the season five final episode, The Gift.
A
nd now I started crying after only reading the William Penn quote in the introduction of the book. The first death left me quite unshaken, though. Probably because I expected it to be someone else. Or maybe because nothing can beat the shock-factor of The Half-Blood Prince's ending (I cried for hours even though I knew what was going to happen).
It's been quite painful to read so far, though. These last books are definetely not for the kiddies anymore. Death, torture, psychological manipulation, betrayal, corruption, loss, oppressing atmosphere, nazi allegories... And increasing amount of innuendo. :p

Hmm, I wo
nder what kind of dreams will I have after watching a couple of Buffy fanvideos, listening to At Wit's End on repeat and reading several chapters of TDH more. :p

Hmm. I should probably start being less open about my eccentricisms on public message boards, I've already apparently managed to make certain people think I'm some obsessed psycho and a possible threat. *dry chuckle*
Oh well, shit happens. It does bother me but I guess there's nothing I can do about it.

Ah well, anyways...
I had a nice day. We went to see the fifth Harry Potter movie and I have to say it became my favourite one after The Prisoner of Azkaban, it had a very similar feel to it.
It followed the book very loyally, had some great scenes, great continuity from the previous films (same sets, props and even clothes and flashbacks from the previous films) and über-cute Tonks and Luna.
But there wasn't enough of the Order! The Order of the Phoenix is probably the coolest thing in the whole Potter universe, they deserve more screen time. Especially Remus, who was on the screen like two minutes if even that much (but ha! I always knew young Remus had long hair :]) and wasn't even in the Advance Guard which is weird because the whole point was that he was the only one there whom Harry knew for sure he could trust. And the "Don't call me Nymphadora!" line was supposed to be bantery and the first hint about what happens in the next book. (Yeah, I ship Remus/Tonks, sue me :p)
Also the finale was a bit anticlimatic somehow and Voldy looked too human, must have been the eyes (and it certainly didn't help to see him in a suit or dressed like Harry).
Bellatrix was okay, though half of the time I couldn't help thinking that Helena Bonham Carter was just being herself. ;p But Rodolphus and Rabastan looked great!
Oh, and the "new" Dumbledore still doesn't convince me. He's too shabby and impatient and where the hell are his half-moon glasses? RIP Richard Harris. *sigh*

After the movie we went to eat some Chinese (which I decided is not really for me) and reminsce the days of old when we were still silly rebellious teens with Ella, Mervi and Fanny and from there to Cosmic Comic Café where we played a funny character analysis game. Apparently I'd be a great tv-safari hostess whose cameramen get eaten by alligators all the time. :D

Meh. I should probably go to sleep.
I already have like three books I'm currently reading, but I have a feeling I just might grab my The Order of the Phoenix from the shelf and re-read it and The Half-Blood Prince before I go buy the last one.

EDIT: Oh fucking hell. That thing really does bother me. *bangs her head against the desk*
I guess I should at least try to do something about it.

Oi, löysin juuri uusimman trailerin Goblet of Fireen...
Jesus God, en malta odottaa!

(Jauhanko nykyään mistään muusta kuin uudesta Potter-leffasta? O_o)

Pettymys tänään oli se, että toinen niistä mahtavista "Fred&George" -kaksosista pudotettiin Idolsista.
Ihan epäreilua, olisin halunnut molemmat finaaliin.

Hitto, minun on monena iltana/yönä pitänyt päivittää, mutta sitten se on aina vain jäänyt.
Ja Lauralle on pitänyt mailata jo pari viikkoa, mutta kun ei saa mitään aikaiseksi. Äh.
Huomenna pääsee taas ihmisten ilmoille kun pelataan Stormbringeriä, ja torstaina alkaakin jo koulu niin on pakko ryhdistäytyä.

*hieroo silmiään* Perkeleen näyttö.
Ja pitäisi varmaan hankkia elämä. Tai jotain.
Tai mennä suosiolla nukkumaan...

Niin, ja sitten tämä, sillä lupaukset pidetään...

1. Vastaa nimelläsi ja minä kerron sinusta jotain.
2. Kerron sinulle, mikä bändi / elokuva muistuttaa minua sinusta.
3. Keksin jotain yhteistä/samaa intressiä mitä meillä on.
4. Kerron mistä saattaisin kadehtia sinua.
5. Kerron ensimmäisen muistoni sinusta.
6. Kerron sinulle eläimen, josta tulet mieleeni.
7. Kysyn sinulta jotain, mitä olen halunnut kysyä.
8. Jos teen tämän sinusta, sinun täytyy laittaa tämä journaliisi.

Enpä sitten päässytkään sinne älämölökuorokokoukseen.
Helvetin flunssa, argh! Voisi kadota vähitellen.
Täytyy varmaan mennä pian lääkäriin ellei tämä ala hellittää.
Kun en saa mitään tehtyä. Pitäisi sinne kirjastoon mennä tiedustelemaan olisiko sinne mahdollista päästä työharjoitteluun ja muutenkin haluaisin liikkua ulkona kun syksy on vielä kauneimmillaan.

Mutta hyviä asioita:

-Näin Sleeping Sunin uuden videon MTV:n Headbanger's Ballissa (jonka paluusta olen muuten hyvin iloinen) ja voi jessus se oli hieno nyt kun sen näki kunnon kuvalaadulla koko ruudun kokoisena. Pojat olivat rooleissaan tosi vakuuttavia. \,,/

-Tämä. Tuijotin vain suu auki koko trailerin ajan.
Hitto, en malta odottaa! Mutta miksi Beauxbatonsista tuli vain tyttöjä? O_o Oh well, taiteilijan vapauksia...
Myös tämä "uusi" Dumbledore häiritsee minua jollain lailla. Edellinen oli jotenkin arvokkaampi. Eikä se johdu välttämättä näyttelijästä, vaan myös ohjaajan tavasta esittää kyseinen hahmo. No joo...

*katsoo trailerin haltioituneena vielä kolmesti*

Näin tänään ihmisiä ensimäistä kertaa varmaan viikkoon.

Kämppä oli tyhjä kun veli on isän luona ja äiti yövuorossa, siispä ajattelin, että tänne voisi tulla joku.
Ja tulikin sitten, Samppa ja Ella ilmaantuivat tänne Panimolla pelatun Kääpiölarpin jälkeen ja jäivät hengailemaan muutamaksi tunniksi.
Humalainen kaksikko Ville ja Mäksy löysivät myös tiensä tänne jossakin vaiheessa ja sitten katsottiin Azkabanin Vanki.
Loppujen lopuksi se meni siihen, että katsoin sitä kahdestaan Samuelin kanssa kun Ella nukkui sohvalla ja kännikaksikko oli lähtenyt kotiin Lietoon.

Mutta mukavaa oli silti.
Ja ei sitä kovin usein saa todistaa komeaa miestä makaamassa olohuoneensa lattialla puhumassa venäjää. :D

Siskoa vaivasi jokin. Voi kyllä olla, että tiedän mikä.
Toivon vain, että hän saa sen pian selvitettyä.

Mm, pitäisi varmaan mennä nukkumaan jos ajattelin herätä ajoissa sinne TEI:n älämölömusisointiryhmän ekaan kokoontumiseen. Jos kolmeksi itsensä saisi ylös.

Sitä ennen vielä vähän [livejournal.com profile] caladan_dd:n upeiden kuvien kuolausta.
Hitto, haluan oikeasti HBP:n käsiini jotta voin Potteroitua taas kunnolla.

Taidan muuten olla paranemaan päin. Yay.
