Bedroom

I managed to have six days off now which is nice because I haven't had much spare time recently in my life. In honor of that I decided to re-organize my bedroom today. I moved a year ago into this flat and since that I have kept the same order up. I'm quite lazy to change the order of home, somehow it always feels weird after re-arranging so I have usually kept the same order from the beginning to the end.

 Now after pondering for months I wanted to try a different style and it's actually quite comfy. I was a bit insecure is it useful to put the bed in front of windows, but this way I managed to have more space to the room. I spend quite much time in the bed: I sleep there, I read there, I use my computer there and I eat there (yep bad habits) so now it's easier to watch through the window when the bed is here. If you are eager to see how the room looked before click here . 

I haven't bought anything new into this room. Only a bedspread is new which I bought the last winter. 

What do you like?

You're spinnin 'round, going nowhere

A dark shadow touched our journey for we had a particular reason why to travel to Stockholm: The Cult, but the band cancelled their show and our adventure turned out to be a shopping vacation instead of the rock gig at Gröna Lund. This misfortune annoyed a little bit of course because I have ever seen The Cult and I have ever visited Gröna Lund. But I enjoyed Stockholm however, but in a different way as I was planned. Hope there would be some good performers the next summer at GL; I would like to experience the venue for once in my life.

Mostly we were hanging around the city center and looking for the good record stores and in the end I ended up bringing a bunch of vinyls to home. A bad side is that my player is broken, but I try to get it fixed soon. I also wasted coins on the cosmetic because Sweden seems to be a promised land of a cosmetic hamster. 

Now I'm back at home again and I quit my job yesterday which I did over the summer. The new winds are gonna blow and the life goes on... somewhere.

In a heart of beautiful houses and paths

There is that one beautiful city which steals my heart after each visit: Stockholm. So close to Finland and not much bigger as Helsinki, but still very different as a soul. We had a chance to spend time there this week and after arriving at home I could already leave back there. Here is a few pictures I took at dawn when streets were free of people and the sun was rising up. These pictures were taken at old town which is one of my favorite place in Stockholm. It was particularly excellent moment to take the pictures when we were on the go early. I will return to the subject later, everything didn't run right as we planned but however we had a blast. 

She sells sanctuary

One attire I wore the other day and wanted to share with you. The current summer has gone with really reduced garments. Perhaps I'm just getting elder when all graphic lines in their simplicity please my eyes. To be honest I have a big bunch of garments waiting for getting for sale. My wardrobe is overloaded and it's damn difficult to find anything from there and I hate those pieces I never wear. Updating of the closet is good to do every now and then and I haven't done it for ages. Usually I go through all my property each time  when I move (and I move often... I've never spent over two years in a same flat) ,but the last move a year ago came so suddenly that I didn't have time to undergo the contents of lockers.

My weekend goes at work which is a bit shame thus there would be several events that I wanted to attend, but the great thing is that Sweden is calling us on Monday. We are going to spend a mini vacation there with my love before my studies begins. I have spent a whole summer at work and the autumn won't look any better what comes to the spare time.. actually it's worst, but I don't want to whine too much, it's good to have a job these days and I enjoy the work most of the time.

I have technical problems with my laptop and actually I'm writing this post by using my old computer which runs too slowly and it's partly broken. I don't have inspiration to solve the problems of the machine at all so let's see when I have the chance to blog the next time. So don't wonder if the blog stays quite for the next days.. 

August

Over these days I've enjoyed the thunder and beautiful evenings which have followed on them. A few nights ago I went to the beach after finishing a shift at work and the scenery was this:

 A clock pointed ten pm and it was a strapping storm earlier in the day. Swimming in the lake felt exotic experience while a vapour was arising from the surface and the water was so warm. I only cursed that I didn't have my proper camera with my in that moment. 

I have also been eating waffles with my sweetie. There is one cafeteria which sells the different waffles and I have visited there  now twice. It's a small and homey place where is nice to pop up every now and then. I have considered to get a proper waffle machine to home. 

Nothing particular has happened. Ordinary days after the next and a lot of hanging outdoors, a lot of  workout too when I have visited swimming nearly every day and the new gym is like a second home to me. Today I also did pole dancing after a too long break and it didn't work at all. I can do those old moves well, but it would be nice to learn something new, but learning home alone is so difficult. Perhaps I will find the inspiration back at some point.
