So far, this summer has been the greatest one in my life so far. Right now I’m working full time at Rikhardinkatu Library, Helsinki’s first public library. I’m mainly doing digital marketing such as informative videos, the visualisation of the e-libaray and graphic design for posters and other material. To my responsibilities I can also […]
Finally. Finals are over. It’s a bit weird having to remind myself and everyone I meet of the exceptional fact that 1, I am a vocational student and 2, I am in second grade. Not that it changes anything, but the situation is a bit special anyway. The backstory for the confused ones. In Finland, […]
Eating some pasta. I’m totally done, finito, loppu, slut. But it was an awesome week. On Monday I had the English listening comprehension for my matriculation exam, and on Tuesday I had the best dentist appointment of my life. Turns out, not only are my teeth more than fine but really nice dentists actually exist. […]
I just decided to take a moment off and appreciate what I have in life. I booked flight tickets to Copenhagen and Strasbourg, so now I have at least one trip planned for every upcoming month until summer. In one and a half week I head over to Denmark for a meeting with the Nordic […]
Another eventful week comes to an end. This week I’ve been stressing around quite a bit as usual. Weirdly enough, I was in school a total of three full schooldays, out of which I did visit the student counselor once. As all sorts of counseling in my life so far have ended up as disaster, I […]
When I was 11, I remember getting in to a fight with my Mom over some random rule we had at home that I didn’t like. I packed everything I owned into plastic bags and put them in a corner to have them wait another 7 years until I could finally move away. Most of […]
I hope you excuse my absence. The last couple of weeks have been really rough on me. I mean I wake up every day and I go out in the world and I see so many beautiful things, but I also happen to see so many things that don’t work the way they’re supposed to. […]
So my wallet is either lost or stolen, and I had everything I owned in it, including lots of cash that I was supposed to pay a debt to my father with. So that pretty much sucks, I hate being dependant on people. But apart from that, it’s been an alright day, a bit cloudy […]
So far, being 17 has been the most amazing age of them all haha. On Thursday, I had some of my closest over. Now later on that I count, altogether I had 27 friends and family members in the house, coming and going and celebrating, just like I had wished for. I got a lot […]
Packing. The backpackers! Yeah we knew we had to leave this town. Emil likes his backpack. And I like this city. And the subways are clean and modern. What is it with old cities, busy streets and night light? Yes Mom(s), we are brushing our teeth. And these are the showers. And this is where […]
