This was all in all a very intresting day. My morning didn’t go exactly as planned, but funnily enough it was a good thing. I felt fresher than usual for the most part of the day and got more done at work both regarding the actual work (Two more finished features and two advanced significantly, looks like its getting done ) and the studies next fall.

It turned out that I probably can’t take an actual course in Software Project Management, because I have the course Project work not done in the dpt, but granted to me (Hyväksiluku) based on my earlier studies. I kinda understood the points the responsible professor made about this, but still I wasn’t too happy. Come on, if it is in the register as “You have the equivalent knowledge and skills” then I should damn well be able to take the damn thing with that equivalent. Fortunately the professor found other almost as significant problems in the my and my assistant professor’s proposal, based on what this is going to be denied. Have to rethink the master’s program and see what is actually smart to take.

After work it was time to reunite with my love and go handle some more wedding matters, post the invitations (we’re done with them already, Rejoice!) and go out to look for things that might seem smart to put in the wedding-gift-wishlist… We met up in Fantasiapelit, but didn’t end up wishing for anything in there From Fantsu to the post-office and we were that much further on the program. Thank goodness M wanted to eat before we went to see for the dishes we might like as that turned out to be anything but easy. Especially cutlery was rather short on the likable options. It seems that we spent over two hours at Stockmann wondering on what kind of cups (No, we found none that we could have agreed on to be nice), plate sets, etc. We should wish for. It seems to be traditional to start collecting some set at the time one gets married, but…

In the end we found that we both liked dining plates in one range of Villeroy & Bosch (With a ripoff price, so we put a few of them in the list, remains to be seen if someone wants to actually invest in them) and some more plates (the small ones for bread, deep plates and some serving bowls in Arabias 24h of particular green (very nice surface)) and one more set of glasses… So the wishlist’s cutlery section is still very much of a work in progress, but we keep digging. The wishlist’s current version and I have to say, that Emma did beautifull work on the design, looks very nice and in line of our wedding’s graphical theme.

Of the dinner that we had, M treated me to a wonderfull dinner in Coyote-grill, complete with desserts. Apart from the giftlist exhaustion, I think we actually managed to enjoy it somewhat together. Which is nice, we’re going to marry soon, she got her engagement ring back today fitting better and all polished. It was very good to see it on her again.

So here was the hairdo today (My hair is still unevenly long, today it was freshly washed as I started today with a shower. It was tied to a ponytail (low in the neck) as I usually like to have it). Even if I read some political debate, good online comics and some of the department’s new study guide, this (again) was all that I managed, perhaps some political or real rpg stuff in near future, now… just go to bed.
