This actually is a backpack I got in the US last month.
For your enjoyment, all Star Wars blooper reels. Hilarious stuff.

Episodes IV-VI
Today is the 30th anniversary of the release of the first Star Wars Movie. May the Force be with you!
I would really, really like to have a Star Wars marathon this weekend, but given that my DVDs are in Finland and I'm writing my final project, it will not be possible, so, geeks of the world, please do it on my behalf.
More information at the Official Site, TheForce.net and Wired.
I just heard about a very good friend of ours that separated from her husband (my best wishes to both of them). As asiduous readers of this blog might know, I'm getting married as well in a couple of months, and hearing that news coupled with my preparatory discussions where I learned the divorce rates in Europe (1 out of 2 separate) and comparing it to my family history, where there have also been a couple of divorces, I couldn't help but get slightly worried.
Then I remembered who is it that I'm getting married with, who am I, and what have we been through in the past seven years. We bridged the chasm between cultures, languages and temperaments, we learned from each other and we went through the experience of living in different countries from each other for a total of around a year and a half. And guess what? We're still here. It hasn't been easy, but we still believe.
There are of course many challenges coming in the future: work, family life, and the like, but as one famous Corellian once said: "Never tell me the odds!".
My first contribution to YouTube, and a bad joke as usual.
What happens when you mix the Imperial March with a terrible flu?

Funniest mash-up I've ever seen. They took some dialogue from other movies by James-Earl Jones, and put it together with Star Wars footage. Amazing result.
I remember the hype for Episodes I-III. I even went to line up for tickets for the Episode III Helsinki premiere. I used to check TheForce.net and StarWars.com everyday. Not anymore... I miss my Star Wars fix, and I miss anticipating something for so much sometimes. I guess it has to do with growing up. =P
I was explaining that many of the people studying with me haven't seen Star Wars.
"Hey, now I know why capitalism is so screwed", somebody else said.
"Why?"
"They haven't seen Star Wars, so they don't know anything about evil empires"
