No hair, no money

Kid's hair is short again. We cut it last sunday. He seems to like his new very short hair. I like it myself simply because it's easier to take care of. And he does look cool in it.

In the picture you see a portion of spaghetti. Would you like to have parmesan with it?

Today I got a letter that told me: I won't get no student-money in Finland either. Last spring I was told that Swedish system won't give me any money. So... I shall go on living on M's good will.

Art

Here's another self portrait from the road. The frame is for a large beautiful aquarelle by a Finnish painter. The thing is that when you work with contemporary art you may end up handeling works of art that look like pieces of crap in your eyes and still you have to treat them well and with respect (oh, what a wonderful metaphora for meeting us people too). I have truly enjoyed my time at the museum. I'll be working with new art at least until the end of this month and then I will go back to older stuff.

Weather is getting cooler and days darker. It must be about the same time of the year as it was when I returned to Finland last fall. A year has gone by quickly.

Eyes for Art

Now I have worked with contemporary art at one of the museums. It's been fun, like all I've done during my internship so far. Only to be in museum interiors makes me feel happy and special. It's nice to spend one's time in spacious rooms and with objects of beauty - or at least objects of intrest.

As you can see I have special eyes for contemporary art.

A Paid (cleaner) Lady

Oh god. How did I end up in here - again? My now-a-days rarely seen alterego 'the cleaner lady' is earning money (no one else in my multipersonal me isn't). Today when I polished a toilet in a location I wondered, first of all: how the hell that shit turned into dark brown concrete had ended up on the wall behind the toilet thingie, and for second: how come am I cleaning again? Will I be a cleaner for money when I am an old lady, if I become an old lady to begin with?

Oh well. Maybe this is my call.

Meanwhile I am enjoying my non-paying internship at art museums a great deal.
