Pink is the new black

This week has been rather awful for me and I'm so glad it's Friday! 

Some really crappy things that happened this week: I totally screwed up my math test and just yesterday after wondering where the hell are my shoes for three weeks, I got an email saying "refund for shoes ordered from blaablablaa". Needless even to say probably that I was furious that the company I ordered my shoes from didn't send any kind of a message at all that my shoes wouldn't even arrive and some form of an apology. 

Why am I so pissed over something like that? Because of many reasons; I've wanted those damn shoes for almost a year now, I ordered them _five_ weeks ago and they were supposed to have full stock of every damn size (so sending them back to get a better sized pair shouldn't have been a problem, I freaking motivated myself to go to work in the Summer for these shoes and when I had to send them back (which was not something I would've wanted to do) I convinced myself that I'd get a new, better pair in a week or so. 

So not only did I not get the shoes after over a month of waiting, but now it's also impossible to get these shoes from Europe that would cost me less than 230€. In the States I could find them in many different stores and they'd cost "only" 150-170€, but ordering them here would mean they'd be sent through the customs (nice extra pay of 50-60€ because of that). I'm really not amused by this. They are shoes that I desperately want, but I can't afford to pay more than 200€ for shoes fully out of my own paycheck! To hell with this shit.... I'm pissed-the-fuck-off. 

Moving on from that crap. *sigh*

I made the decision to dye my hair some other color than black (actually I'm writing this with bleach in my hair). The color that I will try to go for is going to be a bit of a surprise to some, I can imagine, but oh well. I am trying achieve pink hair! Actual pink hair, not the failure of a purple that I had in the spring, but more of a bubblegum pink-color. 

The only thing I am remotely worried about is the amount of bleaching that I'll need to do... I've had my hair black for almost a year now (I am not counting in the short period of purple hair), so the color is needless to say _stuck_ to my hair. I hope two a bit rough bleaches will do. 

I know I will have to postpone my dream of growing out my hair for a bit longer and just force myself to cut a bit off. I hope that since I'll cut this after bleaching I'll be able to give it back a bit of strength so that it wouldn't take a forever for it it to grow. Let's hope the "Biotiini" will also help with the growing back. 

*a little latter added pictures*

Aspromised, I'll show you the rest of the nail stuff that I got! They arrived a few days ago and I'm very impatient to try them on! Now I have so many options how to do my nails that it's starting to be a bit of a problem... :'DDD 

There they are, in all of their glory, my nail crap! : D The 72 glitter pots are the newest addition. One day hopefully I'll actually have tested them all! You're going to have to wait for that, though. A bit too much work to go through all of them at the moment.... XD

Last weeked were the...umm... Venetsialaiset (I have no clue what the "event" is called in English). At least at my house it's been a tradition to light up candles outside on that evening and even though I was practically home alone the whole night I decided that the tradition needs to be honored! ...Actually I just really wanted to light candles outside.... They just make everything look so much more welcoming.

 So that's a part of how it looked like outside on Saturday night. 

That's really about all that I got for this week. Sorry. : < It really, really has been a bad week for me, but let's hope next week I can show you guys the new hair color and some other stuff too! 

See you then! BYE!!! <3

Why the hell not? + nail care

And thus another week has passed and it feels like it's been ages since I last updated anything on here. Well, now I'm back and for once I've even planned something reasonable to tell you about; my nail care. Sure this subject may now appeal to everyone, but hey, bare with me! : ) Back to that later though, for now I'll just briefly go through what's been going on and all the OOTD's and stuff like that. : D

So, I'm sure it won't surprise any of you to hear that it has yet again been a boring and a long week of school. To top the boring factor I have a very nice flu going on and it's just handkerchiefs and cold medicine up in this house, yo.
Thanks to this lovely flu I stayed home yesterday and tried to rest, but with no real effect. I still feel like absolute crap. Let's hope this flu will die out very, very soon because tomorrow Keela is going to come over. We have plans to go take pictures at this amazing place, about 5-7km from here.

Last week I already told you that I was going to go/ went out with Kata and Merituulia on Saturday. I decided to pull off a unique, I suppose I can call it unique around here, look. I went for my new black dress that I showed to you guys so post ago and my black hair-extensions, new necklace and bright red lipstick.
We had fun and we event bumped into Keela after a nice trip to a restaurant. That Saturday was a very nice and needed change to the norm.

The summers in Finland are just complete bullshit and the weather just likes to screw up any plans you ever had. This also applies to the beginning of Autumn. In the morning it's really cold outside, but by noon you'll get fried if you're still wearing the same clothes as you were in the morning. Because colds tend to make you feel cold almost all the time, it's really hard to dress warmly enough but also so that you can remove excess clothing when it starts to get really warm.

My OOTD 

went shopping for some new jeans today after school with Keela <3

Now then... To the nail-mobile!!!!! 

So I've come to the conclusion that my nails might be referred as long or semi-long nails, at least for natural ones, that is. I do try to take care of my nails so that they would be strong and "long". I think it's safe to say that I at least have strong nails now, saying they are long I think is more of  matter of an opinion. To me these claws are not yet all that long, but a bunch of people have asked me if I'm wearing fake nails because they look lengthy and sturdy. 

So here is how I keep them this way/got them this way. I take a "vitamin" (I don't know what the actual term should be, it is vitamin B though) product called "Biotiini" once a day. Even the description says it's purpose it to strengthen your nails and hair. This has really helped me a lot. Now that I look back at time a little bit I notice that my nails have grown so much faster now than they usually have and now my nails need some serious karate moves to snap. 

My nails at the moment

Other tips: 

I don't cut my nails with scissors unless they are really super, super, super long (which they really never are). I file my nails when I want them shorter (almost never) or to shape them better. Also when my nails snap (unfortunately does sometimes happen) I file them back to the shape I want them to grow in.  

I always use base/-and top coat when I put on any nailpolish (so at least 3 layers of nailpolish always on). Using base and top coat is important because it does protect your nail _and_ nailpolish from damage, making the nailpolish and your gorgeous nailart last longer. 

When I remove my nailpolish and if I intend to let my nails "rest" for a bit I apply cuticle oil on to them which smooths out my nails and cuticles and makes them healthier looking. 

For initial tips that was it, but please do ask if there is something more you'd like to know about my nailcare ways. : ) I'm not a master of this art, since this is not something I've ever trained to do like at school or anything and also I really do things the way I feel comfortable doing. I'd also like some tips from you if you'd like to share them!!!

Moving on to the nail goodies! 

My nailpolish/nailart collection is growing at a fast pace (I have around 50 nailpolishes I use frequently). Today I bought three new polished they cost me less than 10€ (the only reason I bought them) and yesterday arrived my nailart wheels. All 20 of them!! I can't wait to start doing my nails and create some crazy combinations with these!! 

I think that's about it for now. : ) The rest of my nailart supplies should arrive soon to me in the mail and I'll be sure to report about them to you later! 

To finish up this post let's all give warm round of applause for G-Dragon and his new music video "One of a kind" which is just.... _awesome_! : D Very, very cool! And ah yellow hair! That's just so cool!! (It does for a reason or another make me think of Edward Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist though... = even more awesome!!)

SEE YOU NEXT WEEK!! BYE <3

So it begins!

First week of school is now over and oh boy.... what a hellish week it has been. It's nothing new that school is rather unpleasant, but to top that I've been having some weird stomach pains through the whole week. Thank god it is Friday.... <3

I don't feel like you need to know to any detail how my schools days have been, so I'm just going to put it shortly: tiring, annoying, awkward with the combination of feeling extremely nauseous half of the time.
Sounds delightful, does it not? I know that the reason behind this week being such a pain in the ass is because I have yet to adapt to the school-week-routine. I wish that this adaption will happen shortly, or else I'm going to throw in the towel and escape to Mars.

Nothing all too miraculous has happened nor do I really have some news to report to you about. I did try to take a couple OOTD pictures, because I'm starting to think that putting some of my "outfit of the days" here might be something fun to see every now and then. ..Maybe?  Maybe, just maybe some people might even be inspired by some outfits that I put on.

I had to plan a simple makeup to school and this is the result.

Nope it is not bright at all nor is Bono photobombing me.

Extra (pictures I totally forgot about):

Buried Keela into the bed one morning 'cause I'm such a good friend <3

I don't always go out without makeup, but
when I do, I look like a homeless person.

Bono having a conversation with himself.

Update about the tattoo: as far as I can tell it's healing well. It was extremely itchy a few days back but now it really doesn't bother me at all. I rinse the "tattoo" (my left shoulder blade) once a day now and moisturize it with a cream (which I let sink in through the whole night). 

It's been over a week now that I've had this gorgeous piece of art on my back and now that it really has started to heal and thus not bother me so much anymore, I'm nearly jumping out of joy for having it! Not a single regret and I can't wait until it's fully healed so that I won't need to be as careful with it as I am now. 

Oh yes!!!! We got out "senior (abi) sweaters" this week! I think it looks awesome and big thanks to our biology teacher who drew the picture printed on the shirt! : )

Just to get at least something random into this update... I freaking had a dream where I had a messed up relationship with slenderman. If you don't know who slenderman is, you really need to crawl out of your cave and check it out. But really... a very not-okay relationship with Slendy... *shivers* my god, what is my brain doing showing me stuff like that!? D: 

SERIOUSLY REQUEST FOR YOUTUBE _NOW_!!!

D:

*cough* Well, I need to go plan my outfit and stuff for tomorrow, since I'm going to Oulu to meet up with Kata & Merituulia.. : D See you next weekend! 

Byeeee! <3

Burn them, burn them all.

Viimeinen lomapäivä, viimeinen loman postaus. Tunnelma ei todellakaan oo hilpeä ja lievästi sanottuna vaivaantunut olo kouluun palaamisesta iskee päälle kokoajan kovempaa ja kovempaa. Viimeksi puhuinkii siitä että blogipäivät menee varmaankin uusiksi ja kielenki taidan vaihtaa (ainakin väliaikaisesti) englanniksi. Tämä muutos saa asua nyt voimaan. elikäs, kirjotan nyt sitten tulevaisuudessa blogin vain kerran viikossa (I know, I'm sorry, but this really is for the best) eli varmaankin perjantaisin, mutta jätän itelle sen verran pelivaraa että voit odotella merkintää viikonlopun ajan. Koitan tehä sen perjantaisin, mutta varmaa on joskus just sillon suunnitelmia niin pe, la, su on päivät ku voit odotella että tänne jotakin ilmaantuu.
Se että miksi vaan kerran viikossa johtuu pääasiassa siitä että koulussa  käyminen vastoin oletuksia ei oo mitenkään hohdokasta (all of you knew that already) ja siitä on mun mielestä turhaa ja tylsää raportoida teille jatkuvasti. En usko että teitäkään kiinnostaa mitkään ongelmat kurssien järjestämisen kanssa, tai kuinka ei kiinnosta taas yhtään tuo pitkä matikka.
Kielen vaihtamisesta oli puhetta kans jo viimeksi ja siihen kerroin jo syynki; harjotus englanin yo-kokeeseen. : D

Now that all of that stuff has been said, on with the update.

From Thursday till today, I've mostly been laying in bed, feeling sick for no apparent reason. So honestly I have no new pictures or anything to hype about, on the contrary I have a few things to hate on. Today's blog, I need to warn you, will be a rant. I'll try not to bash out too much or give spoilers.

***Warning: strong hate towards 50 shades of "Grey" (shit) coming ahead***
***Notice this is just my opinion and if you liked the book that's your business, not mine***

Like I said in my previous post I've started reading 50 shades of Grey. I think I already then predicted that I will not like this book at all and surprise, surprise I was right. I've just now finished the first 150 pages of this abomination that some people call literature and I'm seriously considering moving to Mars to live with Curiosity.

This "book" is horrible. Just terrible.... Beyond words. What makes all this at least a little bit hilarious to me is that this book was originally a Twilight fanfic that has now been turned into a Twilight rip-off full of sex, sex and oh yes, more sex. Ugh..... I like nothing about this book. Not a thing. The way it's been written cuts close to the way I wrote fanfics and other short stories when I was freaking twelve.

The characters are just ridiculous... They are so cliche that my eyes are burning. My inner feminist woke up after just the first few pages in absolute rage. The main character Anastasia is just childish and needy. She is supposed to be almost 22 but she acts and talks like a teenager going through puberty. Hell I'm younger than she is and I feel like a middle aged woman while reading about her amazing life with her amazing catch Mr. Psychopath... I feel like women today should, and have a mind of their own and I'm glad women can make it on their own, but this book takes us back over 60 years when a woman needs a man to survive apparently.

All this main character Anastasia seems to want in her life in to be a sex slave for Christian Grey. She needs nothing more to her life. No job, no ambitions, no mind of her own... It's the most romantic thing ever when this man can tell her what she can eat, wear, who she can meet and when, etc. Really...? Are you, excuse my french, fucking kidding me!? I want to slap that mindless little girl with a brick... Wake the hell up! 

This book is supposed to take place in the real world. NO, IT DOES NOT. There is nothing real about this. Nothing. This is the opposite of realistic. This is crappy fiction at its best.

I get that women fantasize about a man who is handsome, rich and very specific about wanting you to be a part of his life, but this guy, Christian Grey, is not okay. He is damn close, or from my point of view he is, to being a psychopath who will one day kill you before you get old an ugly, put your body in the freezer and talk your empty shell everyday until he can make you into a zombie. No wait, that would actually make this book interesting to read...

I've already heard of the horrors that await me should I continue reading this book, or this whole trilogy for that matter ***SPOILER***; apparently Anastasia will become pregnant and honestly for a second I thought that okay, that's good. She'll become a mother and surely then she'll find her brains and start acting responsible. But oh no... I was mistaken. She will not. I read a part of the other books and seems like Anastasia and Christian are still having the same grim sex as before while she is pregnant. Now, I'm not a doctor, but I'm quite sure that, that is something you should not do while pregnant... I really doubt that is healthy for the baby. Actual quote from the third book:

*will not quote the magical land of sex that happens here*

"Christian lies beside me, his hand caressing my belly, his long fingers splayed out wide.
"'How's my daughter?'"
"'She's dancing"', I laugh.
"'Dancing? Oh yes! I can feel her."' He grins as Blip two sommersaults inside me.
"' I think she likes sex already.'"

Tell me that does not throw you off.....? That doesn't make you fell sick? She is talking about her yet unborn baby... Such a good mother... The girl will surely have a great childhood.

This, honestly, threw me into a rage. This is what women now-days fantasize about!? Disgusting.... Anastasia makes me ashamed of being a woman... Sure anyone can do anything they want behind those closed doors in their bedroom, doesn't make much difference in my life, but when what you're doing endangers the life of someone else, you cross a line. ...hell...

Enough of this shittery... I very much dislike this book if you couldn't tell that already and I'd like to see all of these books burned.. This to me is not good literature, actually to me this is not literature at all and I am ashamed if this the book that all of our generations should read and will be remembered of.

Cannot wait till the movie about this abomination comes out.... : ) It's going to be such an educative film. Really they should show it in schools...

If it is smut you are looking for there are a million times better written works here on the internet.

I do not want to live on Earth anymore.

***

So yes there it was, my reading experience with 50 shades of Grey. I do not know yet will I continue or not, I have been told to just finish it, for then I'd really have the right to bitch about it, but we'll see.

To counter this horror I will now go and play games and maybe watch a good actually romantic movie.

Hopefully you did not die from too strong opinions that were presented and will survive for another day. : D

I shall return back to you next weekend to tell you about the first week back to school and the healing process of my tattoo! See you then!

BYE BYE! <3

Getting ready

Kesälomaa ei oo enää kun muutama päivä jäljellä ja viimesten päivien jännitys (kauhu) alkaa iskemään. Pikku hiljaa pitäis alkaa asennoitumaan siihen että koulu alkaa ja pitää taas jaksaa painaa vaan menemään. Sen lisäksi että ite koulun alkaminen hieman herättää kauhun tunteita niin myös edessä häämöttävä Englannin yo-koe pelottaa.

Oon saanu kyllä selattua muutaman englannin kurssin kirjan läpi, mutta mitään kiinnostuta ei tahdo herätä kun on niinkin kiinnostavia aiheita kappaleissa kun leijan lennättäminen, huonosti käyttäytyvä koira (johon kyllä haluan sanoa nyt heti sen verran että se kappale on ihan täyttä paskaa koska se koira ei selvästikään oo koulutuksesta kuullukaan), kilpauinti... Ei herätä _mitään_ mielenkiintoa mussa ja tekee yo-kokeeseen lukemisesta vaan tukalampaa ja tukalampaa. Sanasto ja kielioppi ei vaikuttaisi olevan kyllä kauhea ongelma mulla siinä, tosin jos mun pitää jonku leijan lennätyksen ammattisanastoa osata niin menee kyllä homma jännäksi ja tekee mieli vähän kysyä että onko tämä juuri niin tärkeä aihealue osata kun on englantilaisen kanssa tekemisissä? Sillon ainakaan ku mää kävin lontoossa viime kesänä niin ei sitä tietoa kauheana tarvinnu ja hyvin pärjäs.
Pointtina on siis se että pitäis osata jotaki todella, ainakin mun mielestä, epäoleellista sanastoa jota ei kuitenkaan arkielämässä ollenkaan tarvita.
Kerran ei koulun kirjoista kiinnosta yhtään lukea tekstiä, kun ne niin mielenkiintosia on, niin totesin hyväksi ideaksi lukea kirjan tässä englanniksi. This is where the funny part comes in; oon kuullu niin paljon paskaa siitä niin kuuluisasta naisten "porno" kirjasta 50 shades of grey, että ennen ku mää pääsen ite haukkumaan sen maanrakoon niin kai mun se sitte on luettava ja otettava selvää siitä. Sain eilen illalla sen käsiini englannin kielisenä versiona niin kaipa tässä täytyy sitten ottaa ja lukea että mikä siinä kirjassa on niin vikana, että siellä päin nettiä missä minä seilaan se kirja(t) haluataan polttaa roviolla kaikki pois koska se on niin suuri häpeä maan päällä.

Cannot wait. Ensimmäiset kaks kappaletta oon tässä lukenu ja tämä on kyllä yks kiusallisten kohtauksien eepos.

For obvious reasons I will not be making in-depth reports about the book though... :'D

Voisin ehkä tehdä niin että väliaikaisesti kirjoittaisin blogimerkinnät englanniksi. Sekin on kuitenkin jonkun sortin harjotusta ja epäilen vahvasti että se olis niin vaikeaa luettavaa että sitä ei huonommallakin englannin taidoilla ymmärtäis. : ) Se jää kuiteki vielä avoimeksi kysymykseksi että teenkö niin vai en. Selviää ehkä ens merkinnässä.
Nyt kun koulu kerran alkaa niin pitää taas muuttaa blogipäivät eri järjestykseen että voin kirjoitella kuintenki suht rauhallisin mielin ilman painetta, koska muuten tästäkin katoaa kiinnostus. Varmaan palaan takas perjantai ja sunnuntai rytmiin, mutta se riippuu taas loppujen lopuksi siitä että miltä musta tuntuu ku meen kouluun takas että onko se kaks kertaa viikossa tällä kertaa liikaa ja niin edelleen. Kuitenki sitten ku tiiän niin mainitten siitä jo aikaisemmin että ei jää sitten yllätykseksi. Blogin päivittelyä en halua kuitenkaan jättää sillee yli kuukauden välein hommaksi, niinkuin tässä joillaki ilmeisesti on käyny.. : (

Anyway, eilen sain viimein se mekon ja kaulakorun mitkä tilasin jo tosiaan jonkin aikaa sitten! Oletin että se mekko ois ihan samanlainen ku se Keelan pinkki mekko on, mutta se onkin malliltaan ihan vähän eri. Keelan mekossa selkä oli umpinainen, mutta mulla taas jää selkä avoimeksi, mikä yllätti mut aika iloisesti; mun tatuointi näkyy sieltä alta täydellisesti!
Se mekko on niin hyvä että jos oisin homannu sen vasta vuoden päästä niin ois voinu olla että se ois ollu mun ylioppilasjuhliin mekkona, mutta en mää kyllä meinaa jättää sitä niin pitkäksi aikaa pitämättä, on se niin hyvä. Päätettiin kuitenki samantien äitin kanssa että mun yo-mekko tulee olemaan samantyylinen. : D
Kaulakorun on juuri semmonen ku pitiki olla. Yksinkertainen, tarpeeksi kuitenki hilinää, mutta silti todella tyylikäs.

Tatuointi on toivottavasti hyvää vauhtia paranemassa, tosinen mää osaa sanoa että miltä sen pitäis näyttää just jossaki parantumisen tietyssä vaiheessa, etenki ku mun pitää yrittää kuikeloida peilin kautta että näen sen kunnolla.. : D Iho on siitä kohtaa vielä melko arkana, mutta ei niin kipeä enää ehkä kun eilen tai sillon toissapäivänä. 

Päivän aikana yritän käyä 2 kertaa, ainaki nyt ekat 4 päivää, huuhtelemassa sitä suihkussa ja laitan siihen bepanthenia kerroksen 3 kertaa päivässä; aamulla, päivällä ja illalla. Näin hoito-ohjeessa luki että täytyis toimia ekat 4 päivää joten koitan nyt pysyä vahvasti tässä rytmissä vaikka myönnän että välillä ei kyllä kiinnostais yhtään. Saan (joudun) pomppimaan kokoajan tuubitopissa ku en halua että kaikki hupparit tai muut lämpimät vaatteet on ihan bepanthenissa ja saamari että välillä on kylmä (suomen kesä <3). 

Oon vähän toiveikas että ens viikon loppupuolella tuo tatuointi alkais oleen jo ihan hyvällä mallilla (tosin en usko että se on vielä sillonkaan täysin parantunu, se on epätodennäköistä). Varmaan tässä pian tuosta lähtee tuo arkuus pois ja ei oo enää niin kipeä, ainakin toivon mukaan. 

Nyt voisin lähteä pesemään sen tälle aamulle ja sitten jatkaa tuon mahdollisen suuren häpeän lukemista sen lisäksi että katon Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhoodia. : D

Moikkaa!!! <3 Mahdollisesti sunnuntaihin!
