Good news at the end of a long day

Whee! First of all I’m sorry for my belated update (as usual). I was going to make a post about my room on Sunday, since I finally managed to clean up here. As it turns out, I never actually had the time/energy/inspiration to take any photos, so you’ll have to wait for that one a little bit longer. I managed, however, to take a few pics of my nails, so you’ll see some golden nail polish later on this post. ^^

But now to the ggrrrreat news! Well, let’s start with something minor and only then move on to the real subject, ok? So, Gackt will be releasing four, yes, FOUR new singles in the upcoming summer to celebrate his 10-year-long career as a solo artist. Whee! This obviously wouldn’t be such minor news for me if I wasn’t waiting for the actual album to come out already. And if there wasn’t something even bigger on the horizon. But as it happens, there is something so great coming on. Okay, okay, I’ll get to the point already. D’espairsRay is coming to Finland and I’m going to see them! Yayy! I’ll have my mom buy tickets for me and Taina tomorrow and then I’ll be jumping on the walls for the whole weekend. The best plan ever, right? Oh, my family’s going to love this, I tell you. But after we get the tickets there’ll be the waiting for three months… Gah, how am I going to make it? O.O J-rock is my anti-drug (but not the only one, of course).

Huh, after all that hype it is time to tell you a little of my life at the moment. Not that there has been much changes in my life in the past… week or so, but since I know you love to have me write something that’s what I shall do.

About life in general: School is killing me most of the time, though I’m keeping up better than last year. (Probably has something to do with not having French lessons or something. ^^) I have seen two theater shows in the past ten days, both of which were really good. I guess the last time I was in a theater was about two years ago, so it was about time to go see something.

Creativity: I have some good ideas and inspiration, even, but I’m just too lazy to get anything done. >.<’’

So-called style: I’ve fallen in love with hime-gyaru fashion. The big hair. *-* And all the pink and white. *-* I fail as a vampire-lover from the dark side (Lol, never actually been even close to that! I’m too kind for that. :P). But c’mon, I’m supposed to be the one who doesn’t wear anything but black, white and crimson! ;;___;; Luckily I’m a person who isn’t loyal to just one certain style. I wear what I like. Great, so now with that decided I can show you my attempt at putting up my hair:

hiukset

Hehe, ignore my messy room. ^^ Someday I’ll understand that it sometimes helps if you close the closet door. But about that hair. It was just something I tried to do, a bit of tesing and about three hair pins, no hairspray or anything. My hair always looks best just before I go to bed. And the next morning – no chance of getting it to look even ok. –____-" I see I managed to hide my face pretty well in this photo. Yayy, mission completed!

And now to the golden nails as promised:

Kultakynnetbow kultakynnetlaukku kultakynnetlakka

Just for the fun of it! Two coats, this Mavala 37 Gold is quite transparent and maybe a bit too yellowish for me. I bought this one for my school’s ball a few moths back. Lasted on my nails well for about four days. ^^

I guess I’ve already mentioned my love for the nail blogs? Nowadays I would just love to go and buy myself a few dozen nail polishes, but I’m a bit too rational to do that. (Weird, I’d never have believed the word rational applied to me in any way. o.o) I have decided to buy a few new ones, though. I’ll have my dad order me a few Konads, because I just have to try them out. ^^

And it will be May Day next week! We’ll have a dress-up 'party' at school the next Thursday and I’ll have to come up with something nice to wear… Maybe I’ll find inspiration in hime-kei and my Gothic&Lolita magazines. ^^

Bye for now and maybe I’ll have a post about my room for you next time. This post has to end with a ^^

Life after Easter holidays

Wow, it's been two weeks since I updated last time. o.o Sorry about that. My life's kinda boring, so there usually isn't too much to write about. :P

I was in Lapland for four days last week, mainly snowboarding. Whee! ^w^ I was dead tired almost every day though, and I just can't see why. Too much sleeping maybe...

This is going to be a boring entry due to the lack of photos. (Wow, seriously, that sure got you interested, didn't it?) Except if I miraculously happen to find some random photos from my camera...

Haha! Found one. This is a good chance to advertise my mom's cousin's t-shirts, found here.

tpaitarandomness
Yeah, I know, I look dead. But hey, it's about 7:30 in the morning, can you blame me? The t-shirt is a part of the Young Lovers limited edition 'Midnight Twilight' collection and it's called 'Vampire Meets the Hound'. I love it. ^^ <3 Go see the website; there are better photos and lots of other cool designs! /End of the advertisement.

Now getting on... So I spent my holiday in Olos, which is one of the best places for your Easter holidays. I happened to be in the same hotel with our Foreign Minister Alexander Stubb and his family and Aino-Kaisa Saarinen, Finland's leading female skiier (I have no idea if that's the official way to put it. ^^)

By the way, I am now officially hooked to nail blogs. ^^'' I've been staring all those beautiful pictures of people's nails and reading about different nail polishes, and thus I just had to buy myself a new bottle of polish. I bought L'Oréal's Star Magnet magnetic silver, which turned out to be a success. No pics yet though, sorry! It's a bit tricky to use, so I must practice a little more before taking any photos. I think I'll have to buy another bottle, maybe another colour, because it is a limited edition nail polish and I don't want it to end! :P (And here I was trying to save money... ;;___;;)

I want to buy too many things. .___.'' There's that trinity Blood 7 manga that never showed up in stores before I bought vol. 8, then the Trinity Blood DVDs, a Konad nail art set and Jennifer Rardins's Jaz Parks books. And some clothes... That's so going to hurt my wallet.

I'm not sure if there has been enough pointless rant up until now, so I'll give you a little more random trivia. I've finished the Breaking Dawn audio book for the second time. Or was it the third...? Well, anyways, I've finished it. And now I would like to start again. It's actually very relaxing to listen to someone reading. Except, of course, when there happens something nasty in the book that is being read... (The middle part of Breaking Dawn, couple of seriously painful chapters there!)

Well, that's about it. I already decided that I will handle this spring better than the last one but that's easier to say than do. I'm already feeling the stress loading up... But tomorrow is Friday and then I'll be able to enjoy the weekend. Everything's going to be fine. *assuring herself*

I promise I won’t try to fool you

It’s April Fools’ Day again, the day I fear the most. I fooled my dad once, but felt so terrible afterwards that I promised myself to never do anything like that again. It has been about five years or so and I still feel so bad about it, even though it really wasn’t anything to feel bad about and I’m the only one who still remembers it. I won’t think about it anymore, since it makes me feel bad.

I’ve been alone at home for, what, maybe six hours or so and I’m already going to pieces. I definitely need to get away from the house tomorrow, maybe go to Helsinki and do some shopping or something. I have a day off tomorrow, since I had my last test today. Yayy! (It was biology and I’m pretty sure I failed it…)

I’ve watched 6 eps of Kuroshitsuji today and I must say it is one hilarious anime. I keep telling myself that it’s good practice for my upcoming Japanese lessons. Yeah, course 4 finally starts this weekend. I can’t make it to the first class though, since I’m going to see a dance performance with my godmother. Thus I will also miss my taiji practice, which is bad since I missed it last week too (because I was still sick). I’ll definitely have to go to taiji next Monday, because the next weekend from there will be the Easter holiday.

Today I’ve been living with instant noodles, green peas and sandwiches. I hope I’ll get some real food some day, maybe I’ll even have lunch out tomorrow.

This entry has been quite boring due to lack of photos. Sorry about that~. My skin has been seriously disagreeing with me ever since I got sick and I now have red spots all over my body. ;;____;; And my fringe isn’t cooperating either. Blah. Life sucks, and then you die. (Yeah, I should be so lucky.) <—Sorry, I just had to add that. ^__^ I’ve been listening to the Breaking Dawn audio book I have on my mp3 player. I’m trying to convince myself that the Twilight movie hasn’t ruined the books for me. I can’t let something as stupid as a movie to destroy something that’s precious to me. And I won't. <3 (If you have had bad experience with Twilight (the movie)-lovers and thus now hate me with a passion, I totally feel your pain. Shut up already you screaming RP (Robert Pattison) fans! >.<’’)

I hope I’ll have some photos or other interesting things for you tomorrow. Right now I can’t think of anything more to write about. Until tomorrow, then. (Or the day after…)
