So it's been one month. I'm more or less okay with the growth so far. It's a bit in that awkward stage because of the curl coming through that it's hard to make it look nice now. I'm trying to brush it more to sorta loosen the curl a bit, but after a while, it tightens right back up again ( Read more... )

Well, I don't particularly like posting things about Christmas before Thanksgiving, but here's my wish-list for this year it's definitely a little more....colorful than the previous ones:

• large scarves (you'll find out soon why I need them, not just for winter too)
• cute and witty refrigerator magnets
• Sudafed (and if it's not discontinued Sudafed PE)

So, my crazy self decided to plan a 4th of July party not even a week after I moved my stuff into our new place.  But for me, it's much more important to spend time with friends and people who genuinely care for me on holidays specific to home. 4th of July is probably one of the biggest after Thanksgiving, of course, so it's only right that I plan ( Read more... )

This weekend was a holiday weekend out in Finrand. Juhannus or Midsummer I don't understand why they call it midsummer since it's in the beginning of summer as they translate it in English was Saturday and Eero and I headed out to his parents' cottage out in the country.

So as promised, here's my wish list...though I guess again this year, it's a bit late. My bad.

I'm a pretty simple person and quite easy to please so my list is pretty short.

• Cute or witty refridgerator magnets (I've collected these since high school)
• Tea, Tea, Tea (especially unusual flavors, not so much black tea, but somewhat earthy (not so much ( Read more... )

Alright!!

Anyone wanting a Christmas card from Finrand can let me know. You can send a comment here, which will be screened, or an email or a PM.

I got my stamps all ready and now I'm just looking for some cute Finnish cards I can send out.

And LJ music fail is still failing. FUUUUUUU. So I'll put my favorite non-traditional Christmas song

So today's Finland's Independence Day, and corydrane beat me to the punch in making a post, but I still wanted to say a little something. It was really nice today going to google and seeing this:

To be honest, that's one of my least favorite Christmas songs. I've always been more towards the religious Christmas songs such as O Holy Night (which is my all time favorite Christmas song), Little Drummer Boy, Silent Night and the like, but there are tons of Christmas songs that I like, even though I've never been a Christmas type person.
