I would venture to say that ‘Valse triste’ is better known than Finlandia,as it is also a shorter piece.

I quote from finland.fi:

“Finlandia is probably the most widely known of all the compositions of Jean Sibelius. Most people with even a superficial knowledge of classical music recognize the melody immediately.”

And if you want to elevate yourself more in the gay culture,you can even talk about Gustav Mahler symphonies that will get them your attention for sure.He has an unfinished symphony also, no.10 completed by Deryck Cooke. Ah, the wonderful world of classical music.

Actually the “Unfinished Symphony” is finished. Simply it has only two parts, which is very confusing to the most people, who are used to the creations of the other classical composers.

But there are no rules, telling how many parts a symphony must have. There are even symphonies, especially some from the Haydn and Mozart times, with only one part. No one comes to idea to call them “Unfinished”.

So, now you can spread this knowledge among Thai boys and anyone else, who don’t want to hear about it, which helps you enormously with your gay snob role.

If it’s not enough, then speaking about Haydn you can mention, that his full name was Franz Joseph Haydn, but he never used his first name. After this information you will be out of any other gay culture snob’s reach

That map is close. But our apartment has three bathrooms, one for each bedroom plus a squat toilet bahtroom next to the kitchen. It also has a living room of some size. The landlord claims the apartment is 150 m2. I haven’t checked if that is true.

Sometimes I read this blog to my partner and we both have a good laugh because of your wit. You personality is sometimes similar to his sarcastic irony, and your words make him howl. I read your blog religiously, but only share certain tidbits with him, so he asked me what your apartment was like that it attracted so many boys to visit constantly. And .. I was at a loss. I could only tell him that I didn't really know, but that this was my impression of it: ______bw________ | | | master | | bedroom | | | | | ---------------- | | | | bathroom | | --------------- | | | | | | guest room | | | | | | | |---------------| | | [c] | | | | | | [] | [tv] []

It was inconsiderate of Schubert to die before he had finished the Unfinished Symphony.
