Long time no posting

I apologize, I've been busy with Freshers' Week and the start of Uni and on top of that I got ill...

And since I'm still a bit sick and it is ridiculously hot outside which drains all my energy, I will just give you some pictures, mostly my make-ups, from Freshers' Week (17th till 25th) and this week.


I had a VERY similar make-up for the first volunteering day (just replace green with yellow).

That day, Saturday 17th, I wore a blue long-sleeved shirt and a bright, yellow Freshers' Crew t-shirt :3
It was a very good day and a very good way to start Freshers' Week!

I still don't know what "NPARU" is :D

Picture taken while helping the other Crewsters sort out the NUS queue and registry gueue, for once my big voice was of help x)

Rave make!

Monday (19th) was all about me meeting my drama mentees (I'm a mentor this year! Yay!), and the mayhem UV rave.
I basically had to whip up the make-up with what I had and that's what came of it :D
I even added highlights to my hair with those colour hairsprays!

My hair's grown ridiculously in a very short time.

The day after.

Also known as the Tuesday I did ticket sales for the second time, finished early and walked home in the drizzle (hence the curly hair and wet jacket) :'D Also one of the few nights during Freshers' Week I DIDN'T go out (there might've been two or three nights out of the 7-9 parties).

FOAM PARTY!!! (Thursday 22nd, 'twas a good night)

Also, on the night of the foam party our kitchen towels and the bathroom mat commited a suicide. We were very sad.

Sporting my Saints T-shirt ♥

Soon enough it was Monday the 26th and I was supposed to ACTUALLY start Uni (= lectures)
Pictures above and below show my make-up for that nice day I managed to get sick as well... DAMN YOU FRESHERS' FLU!

(Terrible picture) Orange and yellow for a warm day :3

Inside joke that I just had to put up here x)

Nails I did yesterday~

And that's about it... haven't really been able to take a lot of pictures and haven't really been wanting to thanks to the crappy quality of phone cam...

Ah, well, I really want a shower now (it's 26 degrees outside!!! D:) and then read Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy.
So I'll catch you all next time! Stay human!

New posters for which I paid about nothing :3

Suggestions? Questions? Requests?

I don't really know what to write about and what YOU want to read about so... let's do this:

From this hour/minute/second forward you all have 7 days and some hours to post me a suggestion or a question. Or a request.
The "deadline" will be on Tuesday 20th 23.59 (11.59pm) UTC+1 or BST, whichever you like to use. Meaning that the moment the clock strikes 00.00 here in England, I will most probably be in bed sleeping and NOT thinking about your questions or suggestions.

No, but honestly next Wednesday I'm going to be answering your questions and/or writing about whatever you suggested :D

Now, you can ask/suggest/request anything. Personal, interesting, my opinion on something etc. Anything.
Anons: feel free to ask/suggest/request as well!
Readers: if you are too shy to ask/suggest/request as yourselves just post a comment as an anon!

Everyone is free to ask/suggest/request pretty much anything they want.
Of course there might be some suggestions, questions or requests that I won't answer, but do not be afraid to ask TMI-questions or suggest/request something utterly stupid x)

Let us do this.

Accessories time!

I could say I'm sorry for NOT posting this last week like I said, but I've been very occupied with Band of Brothers and Suits and I gotta say...


So yeah. Not sorry for spending some quality time with some great TV shows x)
Anyway, here it is: my totally awesome post including some of my jewerly, like necklaces and earrings, featuring a random Harrod's plate.

Let's start with the bracelets.

Friis and Co. bracelet, gift from my friend Meri.

It's supposed to have a lock next to the heart-locket-thingy, but it got lost long time ago T_T
I still like it a lot, of course. I love Friis~

Self-made, given to me by my friend Jens.

I got this from Jens like 3 years ago... wow. Such a long time ago :'D
And that's actually when we met. We both happened to be in London for the same reason and he had a big bunch of these on his arm. I asked about them and he told he had made most of them himself and then gave this one to me.
It goes together really well with this as well:

Rainbow bracelet, bought from Helsinki Pride 2007 (?)

This one rarely comes off my wrist nowadays. When I got it, I used to wear it all the time.
Then I removed it for some reason and it took me ages to start using it again as much as I use it now. It's been on my wrist for at least a month now. 24/7.

Let's take some of my rings at this point:

Above: 4 rings from Bijou Brigitte. Below: 1 from Bijou Brigitte.

I very rarely use rings. The four colourful ones I bought from Liverpool when we went there for a day. They were just so cool and since they were metallic and together, I got them.
The plain one is plastic and used to have black zebralike stripes on it, which I've been trying to get off since I kinda want it to be just silver-ish. I think I got it from Bijou Brigitte in Kamppi...

I do have more rings, for example my secondary school class ring, which has barbwire design on it. I should have my elementary school class ring SOMEWHERE... but I haven't seen that in ages. It even had a dragon on it ;__;

Well, let's move on to earrings:

Friis and Co. earrings, present from Kiira and Maria.

Obviously some people know my small love for Friis... I'm not as bad as a certain someone who introduced me to the brand, but I'm slowly getting there.
I gotta thank her for introducing me to this awesome brand!!!

But yeah, three pair of earrings~ The black stars are my favourites, I have to admit. Not to say that I don't like the others, because I DO.

Black star earrings, bought from Seppälä.

So yeah... I kinda like stars. You'll probably notice it soon.

Butterfly earrings, a gift from Monica.

I also like butterflies :D Got these from Monica as christmas gift and I love to use them with my bohemian gyaru-ish shirt :3

Leaf earrings, a gift from my friend Christin.

These actually came in the same pouch with a necklace (that you'll be seeing a bit later, patience). Christin gave them to me as a christmas gift if I remember correctly. (When you have your birthday in December, it's sometimes hard to remember wether people gave a present for birthday or christmas...)

Off to the necklaces!

Leaf necklace, from Christin.

So this is the necklace I mentioned like a few seconds or minutes ago (depending how fast you're reading and IF you were reading).
They're made out of a material that makes a funny sound when they hit each other so it's hard for me to run or jump quietly while wearing this :D

Feather necklace, from Glitter.

This one some of you've seen before so not much to tell about it. Except that I lost one feather to a shop in Helsinki-Vantaa airport -_-

Friis and Co. necklace, bought from Friis' own shop in Turku.

When they still had one... I think it either moved or they quit... I do not approve of this.
But I love this necklace (a star!) ♥ I got it for myself as a birthday present in... 2008 or something.

Muffin necklace, bought from Seppälä.

I like these kind of necklaces :3

Horse necklace, also from Seppälä.

I actually have this one twice. I've been supposed to customise the other one, but haven't been assed to :'D
I like it~

Fake dog tag necklace, from Gina Tricot.

WITH an actual, very real, dog tag from Finnish army tank you very much.
I bought the fake dog tags 'cause I have a thing for Union Jack and I like dog tags.
I then attached my fathers dog tag to it. Just until I can find a better/another chain for it... it's been like that for years...

Snowflake necklace, present from Ida.

Once again a birthday present from a friend of mine :3 I like this, 'cause snow ♥
It even has those fake diamond thingies that make it shiny~

Star necklace, bought from JC.

STAAAAARSSS!!! ♥ And it's partly pink. What's not to like? :D


Aaand that, my friend, is about it. I do have WAY more accessories/jewelry (and I mean A LOT more), but I decided to show you my favourites and the ones that I have here with me.
Because showing everything would be... a lot.

Well, have a nice day, stay human and look at Elina and me being totally cool (I suggest you also check out earlyseedling that should easily be found through that video):



(Btw, terribly sorry but I'm too lazy to proofread this right now so I'll do it a bit later!)
