unusual morning after a sleepless night

I can't even remember when was the last time I've slept well and enough. Over a month ago? Don't know what's wrong with me.. Anyway, last night wasn't much better either. I woke up four times in the middle of night, for nothing. Then after 7 o'clock when I woke up again, I couldn't fall back asleep.. It was so frustrating, lying there in the bed without being able to fall asleep even though I'm so damn tired.

So I got up and decided to do something unusual: go out for a walk with my dog. At 8 in Saturday morning. in winter?? Yes. I have to take the dog out 3 times a day, but usually I don't stay out longer than 5 minutes because it's so cold in winter, I hate it.. Anyway, this morning we went out for over 45-minutes walk! It was freeeezing... About -15°C. I wore clothes almost enough to stay almost warm.. But there's nothing that would keep my face warm! And breathing so freezing air, it hurts too.. When we got home after our walk, my black scarf, hair, eyelashes and eyebrows were all white! Not because of the snow but.. Well, I don't know that word in finnish either, but you know, when it's been a cold night and in the morning the grass is white, but it's not snow that makes it white.. Grass is something I can't see here in winters because of the snow, but anyway.. My face was the same colour than my jacket, red!

I thought about taking my camera with me but I decided not to, I guess it would have died there because it's so freezing! So I took few pictures with my phone, though I usually never use the camera of my phone because of the very bad quality.. But it doesn't look so bad when the pictures are so small!

  1. wow incredible pictures :) love them!! ...
    I wouldn't have recognized that it was taken with the phonecam :P

    I know the german word what you're looking for xD it is Tau or as I'd say Reif ;D (I think Tau is more german than Reif 'cause I think Reif is the austrian thing ;D)

    xXx

  2. Thanks! I couldn't take more pictures because it was freezing and my hands didn't work.. :'D These little pictures don't look like they're taken with a phonecam, but if you open them in new windows, they're very bad quality.. But it doesn't matter, why would anyone open them. :D

    And hey thanks, I checked the word from german-finnish dictionary.. It's 'huurre' in finnish.. And it's frost in english. :D It's funny how I forget about finnish words sometimes too.. XD

  3. xD I know I often forget about the german words
    or if someone asks me to translate some english sentences it is like I know what that means xD but I can't really say it in german o.O weird isn't it?

    ReplyDelete
  4. It's difficult to translate some sentences from english to finnish too.. I can understand them in english but can't find the right finnish words.. And it's fun when I'm talking about something in finnish and I have to stop talking becausse I thought about some words in english and I have to think what it is in finnish. XD

  5. xD I always keep thinkin in english it is strange but my thoughts are 80% of the time in english xD...

    ReplyDelete
  6. Mine too.. It's just so strange to think in english because I'm not good at speaking in english.. But it's very easy to pronounce the words in my head, lol :D

    ReplyDelete
  7. xD I know what u mean :)
    LoL it is I think a little bit weird because we're not thinking in our mothertongues xD hehe

    ReplyDelete
  8. It's kind of weird.. But really, I don't know about you but I use english so much everyday.. I read books, I read comments & messages and reply to them.. I watch english/american series on tv and try not to see the subtitles.. So it's kind of understable that I think in english as I really use it a lot :D

    ReplyDelete
  9. I do use it often but not too often xD I do read some books in english ... I listen to english music, I watch DVDs in english ... I watch the dudesons in english on youtube, on web I usually use english instead of any other language ^^... maybe it is because I like this language :D

    ReplyDelete
  10. How could it be possible to use english too often! lol. :D I love english.. And I hope someday I can really speak english as well as I write it.. xx

    ReplyDelete
  11. :D when I was in england there was a guy .. and he said that I sound like a native english person.. I was soo happy to hear that ^^
    ... I love talking english and singing english but I love my austrian dialect 2 :P I think it is cool ^^ but I hate the german ... well ;D the german german it sounds arrogant to me and weird xD

    ReplyDelete
  12. wow :DD I'm so proud of you! Usually when I started talking in english in London.. People were laughing and asked where I'm from. XD But when I talked with friends of mine there.. Who're not finnish, I mean. They didn't laugh at me, they understood what I was saying.. But I still wasn't good at pronouncing. I'd be better if I wasn't so shy to speak...
    Hahah, I love german too! I want to be able to speak it someday as well as I speak english... :D

    ReplyDelete
  13. I'm proud too I'Ve never would have thought of that ^^ I was so honored and didn'T know what to say to him xD
    the funniest thing was I think that me and some friends really did speak english together though ;D we could have talked in german ^^

    I'm sure one day you'll be able to speak both languages as good as you want to ^^
    ... you know what's funny? ... It's really hard for me to talk german.. 'cause everyday I use the styrian dialect ^^ ... and the weird thing is that there is a difference between upper styran and lower styrian dialect xD... and I know both :D *proud* ;D

    ReplyDelete
  14. Cool :D Me and my friend spoke english together too when we were in London.. But not much, it didn't come so naturally. It felt so weird to speak english with her as we've always spoken finnish.. And the pronounciation, well... maybe someday. XD

    I'm sure of that too! I just have to practise... and practise. And I'll learn anything I want. =)
    Hahah.. Is the styrian dialect very different to german? Can german people understand you? :'D

    ReplyDelete
  15. it felt weird too when I did but it was fun :) we kept annoying another friend 'cause he didn't like to talk with us in english but we just answered him in english xD .. haha!

    no german ppl mostly don't understand what we're talking about I think they understand (in case they unsderstand anything) like 1% of the spoken things xD ...
    and if i chat with someone and I accidentally wrote a word in dialact they like.. what does that mean? xD it's funny ^^

    ReplyDelete
  16. Yeah it's fun.. And when you talk long enough,you'll get used to it and it won't feel so weird anymore :D Haha.. poor friend of yours XD But he had no problem with understanding what you were saying in english?

    Haha.. Sometimes when I'm talking with my finnish friend, she uses words I don't understand, or sayings I've never heard of and I have to ask what does she mean.. She lives almost on the other side of Finland and they've their dialect too.. But we can understand each other more than 1% XD lol.. If you meet german people, then you try to speak without the styrian dialect? Or do you speak english or some other language so you can understand each other? XD

    ReplyDelete
  17. no he hadn't any problems in understanding but he had problems with the fact that we didn't talk german to him ^^

    I try to speak german the german way ;D which isn't easy at all for me 'cause I'm so used to this dialect xD ... when I try to speak german the german way xD I think it souds weird because I feel like dump when I talk that way xD.. it's so stupid ^^

    ReplyDelete
  18. Hahah..

    Well, I couldn't imagine me speaking finnish like it should be spoken.. Like the books are written etc.. I speak my own dialect too ^__^ But people who speak without dialect (well, is there any people like that??) , they'd probably undestand me well.. But people whose first language finnish is, I don't they would understand much.. :D

    ReplyDelete
  19. xD yeah that's why it feels so stupid when I speak the way it would be written xD haha...
    but thats often the way germans speak ^^
    we hear it instant when theres a german person in austria xD... and they don't really get our dialect.. I once talked with a woman who moved from germany to austria... and she said she now lives here like for 20 years? .. and she still sounds german xD... really german! ^^

    ReplyDelete
  20. Hahah.. But it's good that even germans speak it like it would be written.. It would be so meaningless to study german if everyone is using dialects anyway so I wouldn't understand anyone. XD
    20 years and stillhasn't learned your dialect!?? Wow... :o

    ReplyDelete
  21. well in germany there are dialects but most of them are pretty similar to the written words ;D only some of them have a weird dialect xD.. which sometimes makes me lough!... when you watch a castingshow and then there comes like one with that weird dialect xD .. and when he/she tries to sing (though he/she can't).. it makes me lough ^^ ... (maybe the only reason to watch casting shows haha...)
    yup 20 years.. and still can't speak the dialect xD ...

    ReplyDelete
  22. I really should start self studying german! I ahte when I'm always planning to do something but.. I never do anything. >_>

    Your dialect seems to be very different if people can't learn it even when living 20 years there.. XD

    ReplyDelete
  23. I hate that too :) I have the things home for so long (well at least the new and best book I have home for a few weeks) but ... well I know ^^ sometimes there you don't have time for it and ... you do nothing ...

    I can't judge because I speak that way since I can speak LoL... ^^ well mine is special ;D it is mixed between upper and lower styria... LOL...

    ReplyDelete
  24. I spend too much time doing nothing! ;<

    Hahah I'm proud of you... You're special ^__^

    ReplyDelete
  25. I 2 spent to much time with nothing O.o I always hate me for doing nothing *g*...

    xD yes I'm special I can speak the upper styran AND the lower styran dialect *g* wow ^^ not everyone can say that of him :P

    ReplyDelete
  26. I hate me for doing nothing too! Well, sometimes it's good to do nothing, you don't have to be doing something all the time.. But, if all you do is nothing, it's not good! But it's pathetic, I'm jsut complaining how I do nothing all the time but still I don't c hange my habits. Btu what could I do?

    Haha it really makes you special.. If someone who has lived there 20 years haven't learned to speak either of the styrians but you can speak both!! :D

    ReplyDelete
  27. xD I don't change my habits too I always complain xD but complaingin' doesn't change anything aobut the situation xD...

    yes I can speak both because my relatives live in the lower styra ^^ so I'm used to both because when I was a little child I was every holiday at my aunt's or my cousin stayed the holidays at our place :) it was so much fun! :P

    ReplyDelete
  28. Indeed.. Complaining doesn't change the situation. Well, maybe it just makes it worse as you complain all the time and people don't want to listen to you XD

    that's nice :))

    ReplyDelete
  29. that's true xD ... ppl start to ignore you I thik if you only complain xD

    ReplyDelete
  30. Yeah... But hey, Chris Crocker said that complaining isn't a bad thing!

    ReplyDelete
  31. xD but I'm of the opinion that complainging doesn't change anything xD

    ReplyDelete
  32. I think Chris Crocker said it well! But yeah it's also true that complaining doesn't change anything.. :'D

    ReplyDelete
  33. xD only you can change anything :P
    like "Die Ärzte" sang in their song "Deine Schuld" there is that line saying that it isn't your fault that the world is the way she is.. but it is your fault if you if she stays the way she is :) and I think they're right ^^

    ReplyDelete
  34. Yeah.. They're right :) And I like the song btw!

    ReplyDelete
  39. okay xD I'll write it to you on youtube because if I do that here you know you wouldn't see it ^^
    but I haven't tried it yet here... xD
    there's one thing you have to know ^^ you can only add pictures here where you have a link... so it means you can't upload any picture...

    okay xD I gave it a try ant it says that I'm not allowed to use the IMG tag.. so we can't attach pix here in comments =(... that's mean!

    ReplyDelete
  40. Oh nooo =( It would have been nice to attach pics to comments too.. To give the comments some colour :D

    ReplyDelete
  41. that's true ... I thought that this blog gives us enough space for creativity.. but somehow it seems this blog doesn't want us to attach some pictures in these comments =/

    ReplyDelete
  42. Well.. I'll forgive it. We just have to be creative enough in our blog posts where we can attach anything :D Then the comments can be just text.. and tags :D

    ReplyDelete
  43. yes xD but I do want some creativity here xD.. only black text and some links can't be all we're able to do here xD

    ReplyDelete
  44. We can change these colours from our setting here.. So we could turn the black text to anything else! Though then again, it would all be the same.. All comments red or whatever.. Boring again! ;( Well, you know the html, you can try all codes you know, maybe some works here :DD Or otherwise we have to complain to blogger.com.. They're trying to put limits to our crativity!
