Animals and nail polishes

Hi!

Somehow I won tickets to a pet, outlet, child and arts & crafts fair/expo from a contest on instagram so I asked Laura to join me and we decided to go. The expo was this weekend and I had really no idea what they had there that I'd be interested in but I found out the outlet expo had some pretty cheap nail polishes. It was nice because I'm getting more into nail art again, especially now that I have some new stuff. I ended up buying a bit more than I was planning on but I stayed in my budget the whole day, even after the expo!

Our friend joined us at the expo and after we had walked around for few hours, we decided to leave, go eat some Chinese food and go to few stores at the central. It was such a lovely weather outside. I'm so happy it's getting warmer!

Here's all the things I bought today:

China Glaze - Liquid Crystal, Essie - Mint Candy Apple (a nail polish I've wanted for YEARS), Blanc and Shake Your $$ Makers

Lumene Natural Code - Jewel Green, Angry Birds 54 and Pink Diamond and Lumene - Quick Sand (Jäljet hiekassa)

BYS - Ultra Violet, Diamond Glitter Satin and Emerald

We went to CesarsShop's store after the expo and I got a Nailfix cuticle oli in yummy gummy and Diamond Dazzling and Hexagon Dazzling glitters.

From a random craft store I got two tubes of holographic glitter to use on my nails and from Kicks I got a buffing nail file or whatever those are called :D

I had a really fun day and thanks girls for the company! :)

See you soon!

and we looked like eskimos

Hi!

I grabbed my camera with me the other day again while we went out with two of my friends. Unfortunately the other one left before we could take pictures with her :( This was my last day in Rovaniemi for 5 weeks since I'm now doing an internship in Helsinki (more on that later). I didn't like the fact that I was leaving my friends who I've become so close with and see almost daily but hopefully five weeks will go by fast.  And thank god for whatsapp. 

See you soon!

It's adventure time again

Hi!

I visited Helsinki for the weekend because couple of my favorite youtubers from Ireland (BriBry and Candice) were having a meet up on Sunday and I REALLY wanted to meet them. This ended up being a perfect weekend to visit Helsinki as two other youtubers from the USA I'm a fan of (Joven and Lasercorn from Smosh Games) were in Helsinki too and tweeted on Friday that they'll have a meet up on Saturday. I went to the meet up on Saturday with my friend Laura who gets credits for most of the pictures from that day and on Sunday I met a bunch of my friends from twitter which was really nice. Overall, I had such a great weekend and I'm so so so happy I decided to go to Helsinki :) All the youtubers I met were super lovely and I couldn't stop smiling for the whole weekend.

Also this post is going to be mostly pictures but aren't pictures worth a thousand words? :P

Friday

On the plane

Couldn't stop smiling after the meet up :3 

Some air hockey before the movie 

We went to see Cinderella which was great btw :D

Sunday

A mini show at the meet up which was super lovely

They sold some stuff at the meet up and I got couple of albums and a super cute hat :3

Candice noticed that we had matching phone cases which was really cool :D 

I gave BriBry an eyeliner from a Finnish makeup brand and he got really happy about it and hugged me :3

And now I'm sitting on a 12 hours long train ride on my way to Rovaniemi. I got a ticket in some kind of new cart that has spinning, single chairs and this isn't as bad as it could be. We'll see how dead I'll be in our first aid course tomorrow :DD

See you soon!

The angrier birds

Hi!

One of the greatest things about having most of my friends from here live so close to me is totally the fact that we don't have to plan every single time we want to hang out. So as I got a text from my friend asking if I wanted to go for a walk with her, I said yes and grabbed my camera as I hadn't done that for such a long time. We went to walk around from the Jätkänkynttilä Bridge, to the Angry Birds activity park and after having a little snack at Subway, it got dark enough for me to try out a bokeh lense I quickly made before we left. I didn't think it would actually work but the pictures ended up pretty cool. I need to make more of these.

See you soon!
