Some updates

So hey guys ! I haven't updated much lately and the reason for that is simply because I don't have absolutely anything to write about ! I'm seriously having some sort of seasonal affective disorder lol. Plus it's like so dark outside 90% of the time so it's really difficult to take pictures anywhere. On a bright side though it's Christmas & New year's soon and then it's already 2014. ha ha ha. Constantly living in the future.

Anyway last weekend I went to Helsinki to hang out with Sara. We went to movies twice (lol) hung out at the city and also went to a bar. And she lent me her Korean grammar book which has some grammar stuff I haven't yet studied so I'm going to write them down for myself ~ Also lately I've been obsessing over tea. Nothing's better than tea when it's dark and cold outside. 

Also I almost have all my Korea uni application papers now. On Monday I'll visit the bank and try to translate my curriculum into English. School keeps me busy..ahh..  

Here's some pictures from last week ~

coconut & waffle ice cream! It was absolutely heavenly.

@ Helsinki

Hello sweeties ~ ! 

This is going to be a quick update because I should be studying right now.

So on Friday I headed to Helsinki after school to hang out with Sara and bunch of other people. It was Sara's birthday and so we headed first to Amarillo to eat together and after that went to Sara's to drink and do our hair & make up. Around 11 p.m we headed to a bar/club called Tiger. I STILL do not have my camera wire, so enjoy the poor phone quality pictures, ha ha. (I'm losing my mind soon. I really need my cameraaaa)

Around 3 A.M I suddenly ended up talking with a Japanese graphic design student who was visiting Finland by himself. It was so random but we had really fun and decided to go all together to an amusement park the next day, lol.  And after that we hit the clubs again. Saturday night & morning was....well...interesting. Let's leave it to that. But it really was so nice to be able to talk in Japanese again! It's been too long and I'm worried that I'll forget the whole language if I don't use it. 

So practically my whole weekend was .. about partying. But I really needed that because now for the next 3 weeks I will be busy with important exams and such so I need to concentrate on those. All in all it was a really refreshing weekend. Sara also brought me some cosmetics & false lashes from Korea as I ordered (thank you, darling), but I will post about them later because I want to take good pictures and make a proper post about them.

And! My hair extensions arrived yesterday. I love them. But I can't start using them yet because I've no idea how to dye them. Light brown, maybe? Or should I really just try blonde.. Ah, I really don't know what to do with my hair..help. 

Love,Julia

Weekend plans & hair talk

Heyy

As you can (probably) see, I've changed the layout of my blog (about hundred times during this week) and now it's finally ready ! I wanted something very different and a bit simpler look. So. Here's the result. 

This week (or at least these first four days) has passed really quickly. Nothing significant really happened, I just went between school and home and studied. But I also ordered new hair extensions ! They're from Hairtrade. I've ordered hair extensions from there before as well, about a year ago, and I've been really satisfied with the quality and results. Now my extensions are starting to be in a really bad condition though, from all the curling and washing and dyeing, hahah. The color is called "Medium blonde" and they are clip-in. I haven't gotten them yet but I think they'll be here in like few days or then the next Monday. After that I'll have to decide what to actually do with all the hair! I would like to dye it light brown, but I'm not sure if that'll fit me. Currently my hair is pretty dark mahogany brown and I'm starting to get bored with this color already, lol. Even though I'm not so much into Gyaru fashion anymore, I've always adored Kumicky's hair. And the shades of brown she uses are a bit like the color that I'd like to try on my hair as well. Well we'll see what I end up doing with my hair haha~

On the different note, I'll be having my English final exams during the next two weeks. And I should maybe spend this weekend studying, but nah, I'm leaving to Helsinki tomorrow. After school I'll take the next train and go meet up with Sara ! I'm so happy because we haven't seen in like three or four months. That little bastard spent the whole summer in South Korea.

It's also her birthday tomorrow, so we'll celebrate that all together and probably go to a bar or something ! I'll write about that more on Sunday. Also I'm getting my camera wires tomorrow so I'll finally be able to take pictures. 

Have a nice, relaxing (or wild) weekend everyone! ♥

love, Julia

Hello.

I'm back! ... I guess? 

So the thing is, I was planning to start writing again already in the beginning of the summer but I was mostly just working all the time, so I saw no point in starting writing when I had..absolutely nothing to write about. 

But summer's over now and life's moving on and I'm just really really excited ! It's my last year in high school, and besides of all the big exams I'll be having throughout the year it's also now official that I'm moving to Seoul next summer ! Me and my friend Sara (blog) are applying for Korea University's regular language program starting next autumn and the plan is to get ourselves to Seoul in June so we have few months time to settle down and find ourselves an apartment. It's sure going to be an adventure.

As for now, however, I spend my days mostly just studying. I have my matriculation examinations coming soon. Two exams this fall (English in 2 and geography in 4 weeks) and 3 more exams next spring (Finnish, Swedish & History). 

Also we are moving during next month so I will probably continue being busy for the next few weeks. And my laptop is broken, but I'll be getting another one soon I hope. That's the reason I have no pictures whatsoever at the moment. 

So yeah. that's pretty much it. I'll start writing more when I get my laptop back and arranged and get more of that precious freetime I really miss a lot. Damn it feels nice to write again, hahah! 

See ya'll very soon again, okay? 

love, Julia.
