Spring is not near, it's HERE!


I'm thinking we're finally heading towards summer. 
These are all old photos I found on my computer so they're quite random, 
moving from the winter and candles towards summer and sunshine in Helsinki. 




Is there a likeness here, or am I imagining things?

Good days and Bad days

The past few days have been ridden with bad news after another, but nothing can compare to what the people in Japan must be going through.

For Japan

My thoughts go out to Japan, have courage!

Oh là là, I love you Russia

Back home from our firms excursion/refreshment trip to the lovely amazing city of St. Petersburg. We started our trip from the Helsinki railwaystation, taking the new Allegro-train to Russia. The journey on the train was suprisingly nice, relaxing and fast! Our weekend went by way too quickly (I miss the hotel breakfasts already), but we did manage to squeeze in some shopping (I'd probaly squeeze this in even if my pants were on fire), sightseeing and a tour of the Winter Palace. All in all, the city is amazing with all it's history! 

This is what St. Petersburg was for me:








Fancy seilings

Enthusiastic tour guides

Italian mosaics

Flip-Out Friday


I'm off to St. Petersburg. Today! But before that, it's 7ish hours of work, work and more work. Which in kind of awesome, no? Yeah.. no, not really. 

But it IS awesome to go places and do things and by things I mean travel related things.. I feel kind of stupid for not visiting Russia before. It's so close that basically, if you sneeze here in Hellsinki 'em Russians will catch your flu. 

Will post some photos after the great trip!

I posted this on my facebook page a while back and for some reason, I keep returning to it. Pretty much sums up the way I spend my time.. Add Tumblr and Blogger and we're in business.

Hope so.

Major Case of.. I Don't Wanna Do This



Thesis. GOSH. 

How hard can it be and how little is it possible to want to write this utter peace of crap lovely peace of schoolwork? It's amazing, the amount of "more important things to do" you can come up with if you REALLY REALLY need to write something with actual meaning/importance. Is it just a question of laziness or could it be that I'm just a tad worried that I might not able to produce a good enough piece of academic writing at all?
