I was so down last night. You see, summer coming and I have nothing, no money, no place in uni, and I realised I missed the date to apply, so it would have been 4 months spent studying, all in vain.

Though this morning I decided to call them, see if they'd accept me after the deadline, and they were really nice, basically I had applied through the internet, not knowing there was a form to be sent too, this only apperaed after I had done what I thought was necessary. So they tol me I could just fill in the form and scan it in and e-mail it, so basically now I'm open for university again. That was nice.

Even better was a couple of minutes after that I got a phone call. Basically they're willing to give me an opportunity on translating books from English to Finnish, under supervision of course. They say it's a small book first, due this christmas, so September-October would then be my payday. It's a bit late, but at least I've got something to do, boredom has beent he biggest problem for me during these 2 years.

So the book they're sending me is a new Dragon Lance one, 1st part of a new trilogy. I assume that might mean a bit more work too if the like what I've done. Might have to translate the 2 too. Of course it's just a part time thing alongside with my studies, but 1 book per year is just fine, pays the studies, it's about +3k in euros once it's ready, depending on the words. Though it might get me into some trouble with taxes ;) But, at least I don't have to do porn anymore :d I'm quite happy at the moment!

And 'tosh; there was 5,2 mil. on the lottery a while ago, this week is only 1 mil. I wish the luck had been back then and not now :)
