Ten Points For Me




Started on my essay today, wrote over 700 words with the facts I have assembled in my notebook and my head. Now I only need to sort my text out, find some quotes, make the language smoother, write an introduction and a conclusion, get my bibliography right, file my arguments even smoother, and reread it a couple of times.

Guess what? I have a Wishlist:




Essential, serious stuff:



Stick blender
Stavmixer
Sauvasekoitin

Won't need that many of them, I hope.




Crisp rye-bread
Surskorpor
Hapankorppuja

You simply can't find essentials like this in the UK




Money
Pengar
Rahaa

Quite essential.




Bicycle
Cykel
Polkupyörä

Might be best to give me money for this one. Quite difficult to ship.




Can opener
Konservöppnare
Purkinavaaja


The normal, sane, cheap version. I'm sorry Brits, but you've got this all wrong.
Or then I'm just too simple-minded for the fancier versions.






Pot (ha ha, very funny.)
Gryta
Pata

Might once again be better with money, quite heavy to take on the plane.




Cash
Fyrk
Mammonaa

I can't stress this enough.




Money for artist's materials (going to order markers online)
Pengar för konstnärsmaterial (tänker beställa tuscher på nätet)
Raha taiteilijantarvikkeita varten (tilaan netin kautta)

For messing around on paper.







Not so essential, but oh so nice stuff:




Bubble bath
Bubbelbad
Kylpykuplia

Because I'm worth it.





Books:





Watership Down
Richard Adams

Cute bunnies hopping around. Nothing more.




Abarat. Absolute Midnight
Clive Barker

Filled with nice illustrations.




The Witches
Roald Dahl

More lovely illustrations.




Fables vol 2. Animal Farm.
Bill Willingham & Mark Buckingham

Because I like Comics.




A Dance With Dragons
George R. R. Martin

I'd really prefer this cover, it would go together with
the rest of my collection. It's a paperback.





Nerdy section:



Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

Intense game of investigating and winning legal cases.





The World Ends With You

Heard it's one of the best games for the DS.
Action-packed role playing game with a great story (i heard)





Professor Layton and The Curious Village

Intelligent and unique puzzle-solving game with an outstanding gameplay.




Bastion

Downloadable from Steam.
Beautiful, unique adventure game with flexible gameplay.




Terraria

Downloadable from Steam.
Do what you want; craft items, explore, build, and hunt.






And the most important section - Sweets:

Something I've been longing for, these won't need explanations.




Dumle



Fazerin Sinivalkoinen
Blåvit Fazer


After Eight




Tupla




Angel-chocolate
Änglachoclad
Enkelisuklaa





Mulled wine concentrate
Glöggconcentrat
Glögitiiviste





Would be nice to be able to drink some back in England even after christmas. . .
