Strenght and knowledge

Man have I had stuff to do... luckily I have less lectures in the coming couple of weeks, so I'll have more time to concentrate on the upcoming elections for the Council of Representatives of the Student Union of the University of Jyväskylä (JYY). I'm a candidate from Grönioni, the local union of green uni-students. My candidate number is five (5), which is nice and easy to remember (winkwink). Visit our campaign stand for some apples and a chat if you feel like it.

Anyway, I'm grateful for my friends, for they never cease to inspire me or supply me with great music that I haven't run into before. This one's by Canadian band and it truly fits my mood this morning. Hope it cheers you up and lets you find the strength you need to accomplish whatever it is you're trying to do.

A foggy night

I'm torn between the urge to grab my camera, hop on my bike and ride to the bridge to shoot some photos and the wish to crawl to my bed and fall asleep. I think I will follow the latter course of action, for I might have induced a slight, comfortable buzz and thus my current ability to operate a camera is slightly limited.

Who knows, I might even dream of lotus blossoms...

Coffee!

Haven't had the time to get into this band yet. First peek sounded okay so I thought I'd post em up to serve as a reminder to myself...

Pillars of light

Sólstafir... a certain sign of autumn. Their new album, Svartir Sandir is coming out within a month and I'm quite excited. A few reviews (which mistakenly claim it to be their third full length, while it actually is their fourth) have spoken well of it. I've pre-ordered it, along with a t-shirt, shot glasses and ice-cube molds.

One song from the new album was available on soundcloud... Find the Fjara video later in my blog ;)

This is from their second full lenght, Masterpiece of Bitterness:

Busy tunes

Started studying political economics in the uni here. Long days lie ahead and I might be coming down with a cold. Good music, good tea and good chocolate ought to send it away.

I saw Boris live around 2008 or something. It was one of the best shows I have ever seen. For me, right now, this song is the new Bohemian Rhapsody.
