Give me freedom.

If someone would ask me right now to go for trip around the world, I'd go in a heartbeat it. I'm just so sick of it all. All the pressure and sheet load of work I should be doing.

Even though there probably is no absolute freedom, I'd be really happy with being free to choose the shit I have to do everyday. Now I can't even choose. I wish I could just snap my fingers make it all go away or have button in watch that would put time in pause mode so that I could breath for a while.

In the end there is only one way to get out of this big pile of dung. Pick up the pitchfork and shoveling.

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

Yesterday I went to the movies to check out the new Harry Potter movie. I'm not big Potter fan, I haven't read the books and I've never watched the first film from start to finish. The bits that I've seen of the first film I've always regarded as bit childish and not that exciting (story about bunch of 12-year-old kids, childish?. How can that be. I don't understand).

The Half Blood Prince surprised me positively. It was way more sinister and scarier than I thought. Malfoy was great character, somehow he represented to me the outcasts of the school world. I could not help having impressions of these school shooters while watching Malfoy.

Even tough the movie was scary it also managed to be funny and heartwarming at the same time. Seeing Hermione and Ron squirming around waiting for the other to take the initiative to tell about s/he feels, was quite entertaining. Also the other small side plots were quite alright.

The movie in its entirety was totally perfect. I felt some trouble on the flow of the film. Some how all the events did not tie into each other seamlessly. Anyways the movie was so good that I may go and see the next Potter movie to be out in 2010.

Things to do

For a week or two I have been dreaming about January. I've been having this very vivid impression of me in Vienna, alone of course, on clear and freezing winter day. I am carrying a newspaper and I'm going into a cafe. I see images of frozen trees in parks and the magnificent old buildings that Vienna has abundantly as I walk leisurely on the streets of a capital of bygone empire.

I dream of hot cup of coffee and croissant. I read the news paper. As the day starts to turn to evening I start to walk into my hotel. The sky is red and the cold wind bites into my nose. Somehow I could not feel any happier.

I must go there.
