TODAY IS A GOOD DAY. Sun is shining. Elina was at our place yesterday and I woke up next to her. The busride to work was spent reading. I made three maps for the newspaper at work. My sister passed her moped license theory test. I got a summerjob at the state-owned broadcasting company YLE. […]

Throw my hands up in the air
Some thoughts on being social, being lonely and being alone. I’m a social person. My Mom is not a particularly social person. She likes to read and have her peace and she always talks about needing some alone-time. So she raised me to think that a healthy lifestyle was when you had a few hours […]
Maybe I’m crazy but so are you
Haha I was supposed to write happy Sunday everyone but then I realised it’s monday. I worked until 1.30 so my boss gave me the day off. Hihi. I’m still at Marie’s apartment, watching Netflix movies and going through my e-mail. Marie went to work 7-8ish (?) and then fell back asleep. But weirdly enough, […]
I work all night I work all day
Phew, what a weekend!! On Friday, we had a memorial thing for my aunt L and put her ashes in the ground. The weather was fine, even kind of sunny when we got to the grave. But as soon as the urn touched the ground, a hell of a hailrain broke out and completely soaked […]
But if you ask where I’m staying tonight
EUROPE HERE WE COME! I’m at Emil’s place and we just booked our flights for the INTERRAIL next summer! We decided to travel in July instead of June, since I have a chance at getting a summerjob and it’d be cool to go when most people go, and PLUS we got the flights for 80 […]
You can hate me [underestimate me]
People are so scared. So afraid to fall. Even at the bottom, where it’s pretty much impossible to, people still fear a bottomless hole to open up under them. We grow up with some kind of adult or parent around. No matter how good or bad they are at the raising us- part, we still […]
Catching the sun before it sets
I had a really boring and tiring day with lots of work and no real challenges and no real results. This is why I couldn’t do only one job from 8-16. It’d be sooo much easier, but I get tired after less than a full working day. My head likes to have 1000 irons […]
Sometimes it’s crazy
Just an ordinary Wednesday. Late morning, meaning the 9-bus to Helsinki, a hot chocolate in the sun outside while frenetically going through e-mails and calling around. I’m in the middle of planning like 5 different trips and events, some of which I’m planning with a group of people. And don’t get me wrong here, I […]
Streets of laughter, streets of pain
Here we go, new week. The weekend was great, saw a lot of friends and family, and now I’m at work with a lot of new energy. Yesterday me and my supervisor planned my competence test and that was a lot of fun. I didn’t think we could come up with a reasonable idea in […]
It’s all about now
SPRING! I’m wearing my half-fake-leather-jacket open and driving my moped illegally fast around town and sitting outside for four hours in a row without minding the wind or the still kind of-frozen ground. It’s been an amazing couple of days. I really enjoy working at HBL, I got an interview for a summer job, and […]
