I'm the Queen of Random

And this, is the Random post of Doom.
I mean it. There's really no point. Just a bunch of pics and caps to tell you what's been going on.

Let's start with the fact that I'm back from my relatives and I didn't return to Helsinki empty handed.

This. Is an old duvet cover which I'm gonna make a reversible dress out of. Hopefully.

It just depends on whether or not there's enough fabric since I don't want the hearts to go sideways :D
Sooo cute~ I got it from my aunt who doesn't use it anymore since it has a small hole.
IF I have to decide to go with only one colour, which one should I take, The white or the red one?
I also saved an old bunny plush toy that my younger cousin had abandoned. I don't have pictures of it, but you can see the green cutie jammin' with me and another bunny in my robo.to.

I was looking for some sewing patterns from my aunt's old sewing magazines for the dress... but the magazines were from the "lovely" 90's...

As you can see...

Ah, since I was born in the late 80's, it means I grew up in the worst time of 90's, where the trouser legs were just a tad too short and shirts way too big with shoulder pads.
Not. Cool. Man.
The coolest things about 90's have to be the music and the cartoons.

Definitely not this...

Or these...

And this is not even that bad :D

So yeah... I might have some kind of... antipathies towards the style of the 90's x)

I know that the shoulder pads were WAY bigger in the 80's, but I still remember them so vividly from the 90's dress shirts and women's suits :'''D
And now those freaking Lady Gaga and Rihanna are trying to bring them back. Please. Stop them.

So many... and so many terrible sewing patterns...

On to happier (?) news! Let the randomness continue!

This is what I have to deal with when I wake up.

In the photo my hair isn't even that bad, it's usually way worse :D
I have naturally curly hair... not anything close to an afro, but very strong natural waves, so to say, that make my hair go EVERYWHERE.
If I straighten my hair and go out when it's raining or just otherwise humid, my hair will wave up automatically in 5 minutes or less. Nice.

Oh well, that's life and I have to thank my dad for my strong (wavy), brown hair x)

Let me continue my almost timelined story....

My return to Helsinki was soon followed by Midsummer which used to be my favourite festival but which I dislike nowadays since I usually have to spend it alone or at work.
Luckily my dear friend Iippa decided to save me from utter loneliness and boredom and came all the way from Oulainen to Helsinki to spend it with me.
MUCHLY APPRECIATED it was x)

We were supposed to watch almost all the Batman movies, but after the first one (Burton's Batman) stuff happened and we couldn't watch the rest... Instead we watched The Room (which is probably the worst movie ever made) and...

Did some candy box porn!

(Okay. I did.)

It all got me very... thoughtful.

We also played Amnesia! One of the very few things that actually makes me s*it my pants... every freaking time :D
All in all, my Midsummer turned out surprisingly good~

Today (well... yesterday) I went to the very centre of Helsinki to meet my friend Heli.

The Finnish National Theatre.

We met right infront of the building in question and then just... headed to Pohjoisesplanadi and even bumped into our other friend Sonja. It was pretty random and fun. We even went to Helsinki Info to ste- get some tourist quides in Japanese x)

I also realised that it's the Pride week! I was accidentally wearing the right top for it as well!

Look at my fringe! It's grown SO fast.

Yeah, I know you can't really see the top, but I'm wearing the same one in the manba photos from last year, so if you wanna see it, just go a bit back in my archive and it should be there :)
It says "Under the Rainbow" :333

So yeah... we went shopping and stuff and I bought some nail polishes with my nonexistent money...
But hey! At least my nails are cool now (DAMN YOU PHONE)!

So blurry -_-

Yeah, I used some blue and silver-ish nail polish I found from my cousin's cupboard and then used my own, new, Wet 'n' Wild Wild Shine glitter nail polish and top coat.
I stole the idea from Iippa who got it from this tutorial :3
Next time I'm gonna do another colours and it's gonna be even better. Mwah.

Aaanygays. I'm running out of randomness and I've been listening to Eye of the Tiger SO much that I should really head to bed now. Quickly.

Unkle Baourban is going quickly.

Busy? A bit.

Sometimes I forget I'm a drama student :D

I just had to post this, because it's amusing me greatly x)
Yes, it is my drama work, although I feel more of an architect :D In one of my modules we have to build our own model box for a chosen play. I picked Enron and decided to put it in Wild West. Challenge, since the play is very modern and tells about Enron, an energy company and the scandal that evolved around it. We'll just have to wait and see what comes of my box and idea x)

I've also been pretty busy with all the other uni work. For example, I'm performing next week on another one of my modules and it's very important since it's going to count on my final module grade. I also have to write 3 essays and one evaluation of my partner's work. Wow.
On top of that, our dance society is working on a show so I'm pretty much spending 4 hours a week dancing and rehearsing :'D

The reason for that amount of work is the fact that I'm spending WAY too much time outside with friends, laying on grass, playing cricket, tennis, football or whatever we decide to do... it's 19 degrees (celsius) outside right now and I'm inside, making my model box because I have to ;___;
Oh yeah, I even went out on Thursday for my friend's birthday and got back around 3am, oops :'''D

Oh well, I hope I'm gonna get the box at least 80% done today so I can relax tomorrow and do something else (= work from another module). ROFS.

I need REAL work.. I'm running out of money, it's terrible.

Klara vappen!

So it's vappu (aka the first of May or May Day (lol at that)). Or was. It's almost the 2nd of May already sooo x)

Yeah. What did I do? I finished my Nintendo DS holster that I started yesterday (30th of April)!
This is how it turned out like:
Very objection!-ish yees? ;D

Basically, I just cut two pieces of fabric (about 25 cm x 25 cm), one black and one pink, then folded the fabrics in two (if you know what I mean...), sewed the edges together so they both were "pouches" and after that turned the pink pouch inside out.
Next step was to use the fabric colour to create the figures on the black pouch. Easier said than done... I had to do many fixes x) Of course, I had first done the templates (pain in the butt, btw) and now it was just the matter of painting. And ironing x)
When that was done I... inserted the pink pouch inside the black one.
Last but not least came the zipper. Ooh... THAT was big b*tch... I placed the sides of the zipper between the pouches so that it'd be hidden nicely and that the whole thing could be reversable.
Sewing the first side was easy... but the other side... Gah, I had to sew the end by hand. And I'm crappy with things like that so it was kinda annoying :'D
But it turned out pretty nice :3

I also went to the movies to see Leap Year and my gosh is Matthew Goode hot or something!
Well anyhow... Here's my May Day-makeup I did because I went outside the house x)


MAC's fake eyelashes are love! And the eyeliner too!

Anygays, I have work tomo- ...
Haha, it turned to 2nd of May already :DDD
As I was saying, I have work today so I should go to bed now x)
