{ Globetrotting and Other Tales }

Hello!
I am off to London on an early morning flight tomorrow, and still working on my bio lab right now, so I'll make this very quick! I shot a vlog; I hope you like it!
Have a lovely weekend! xx





Haha I actually ended up with all sevens and sixes (except math lol...); so I have a good foundation for high predicted grades for next year... PAM PAM PAA

{ So We Beat On }

Hello!
My dad and I got a fantastic new camera and man; I am so excited! Cannot wait until I have time to learn how to use it (it is a Canon EOS 60D with a fab tamron 18-270 mm lense)! The video quality is amazing O.O BUT silly me, I edited this video with my trusty windows movie maker (yes I know...) and it totally destroyed the pristine pixels and the excruciating details of my breakout! Now it just a slurry slur... Woohoo! So next time I will use a different program that isn't designed for 12 year old's and old people...
Anyways! I went to see the Great Gatsby on Saturday and even though nothing ever will be quite like the book, I thought it was beautiful. Here is my outfit and makeup!
Enjoy!



Sorry about being out of focus from time to time; this was my first try filming with the new camera.

So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past."

Hello!
Greeting from the middle of ib1 finals week; currently four down (Economics, Biology, History, French) and three to go (English, Finnish, Math). It has definitely been tough; memorizing everything we've done this year has been such a pain. I honestly feel so done. I am chained to the desk until the last day of May (with the exception of the most wonderful trip in between!!!).
Last week my friends and I rented a cottage in the forest and stayed there for a night. It was perfect; the sun was out and for the first time, it really felt like summer. Escaping from civilization to enjoy the sauna and go swimming, cook sausages in a fire and stay up alll night was just what I needed. (Granted, maybe not the staying up all night part ^^).



Terveisiä IB1 finalsviikon keskeltä; tällä hetkellä neljä kaatoa (economics, bilsa, historia, ranska) ja kolme jäljellä (englanti, suomi, matikka). On ollut kyllä tosi rankkaa; kaiken käydyn muistaminen ja analysoiminen on ollut uuvuttavaa  ja olo on kyllä niin loppu. Naama on liimattuna kirjaan vielä toukokuun viimeiseen päivään saakka (ja maailman ihanin matka tulossa välissä!!!)
Viime viikolla vuokrattiin kavereiden kanssa mökki Nuuksiosta yhdeksi yöksi. Siellä oli niin ihanaa; aurinko paistoi ja tuntui ekan kerran kunnolla kesältä. Sivilisaatiosta pakeneminen saunomiseen, uimiseen, ja makkaranpaistoon ja koko yön valvomiseen oli juuri sitä mitä tarvitsin. (No okei, ehken sitä valvomista olisi kuitenkaan tarvinnut. ^^ hehheh)


ylläri.
surprise surprise.


























Forest chic;
boots - hunter, shorts - zara, shirt - af







teenagers in the forest; take out pizza ^^
nykynuoret metsässä; tilauspizzaa ^^






and on I march!
reippahasti etiäpäin!































These memories keep me going; in hopes of creating new, even better ones.

{ The Merry Month of May }

Helloo!
Here in Finland we spend Labour Day on the 1st of May, and its kind of a carnival thing. I went out with my girlfriends and had such a fun time! It was so nice to really see everyone since it had been a while since I last went out and about!
We had a little barbeque pre-party before-hand with yummy food and krrhhm, justin bieber dance moments. Oh dear... :D

Vietin vappua ihanien tyttöjen kanssa ja voi että kun oli ihanaa! Oli ihanaa nähdä kaikkia kunnolla pitkästä aikaa ja käydä kunnolla ulkona!
Pidettiin pieniä bbq-etkoja ihanilla herkuilla ja krrhm, jb popitushetkillä. Ei siitä sitten enempää... :D







Gorgeous blue-tip ladies!















Happy people!
Iloista kansaa!



FURRY GOGGLES.

Enjoy the rest of week! :)
