Yay

I passed the test I had on Friday! Gosh I'm so happy about that, I feel like everything's going to to be okay ^^ It's funny what a little bit of success can do for your self esteem :)
After the test I had lunch with C, we ate noodles :D Then I went to work and after that I met up with S. We picked up some Chinese food and a movie called Funny games and the went to S's place to watch it and eat. The movie was a bit disturbing, two psychos on a killing spree...
Today I helped C do her hair and then I picked up A from work. We baked Christmas pastries ^^ So delicious!
I want to buy a black skirt and some casual dresses to wear with leggins but I don' have any money :/ Oh but christmas is coming up, maybe I'll ask for those :)
But now I'm really tired so I'm going to go to sleep now, good night!

Hey~
Yesterday was the listening comprehension part of the English test, I think it went well ^^ Today I have another test -.- and I have to go to work straight from my test, blaah. And it's raining :/
I feel like I don't have enough time to see all of my friends and I would really like to see my friends more often but right now my studies are taking up all my time. After this week I'll fortunately have a little more time to do other stuff than just work and studies ^^

Sleepy...

I'm tired today but I had a good time last night. I hade a get-together with some uni friends and we all stayed the night at L's apartment. My eyes hurt >.< but fortunately I got to lend some maps from L so I don't have to stare at the computer screen to practise for the test on Friday ^^
I'm going to make some coffee now, bye~

I hate having so much tests lately because I don't have enough time to see my friends not to mention I hate taking tests because I never do well ;___; Well I'm off to studying...

I can't get any sleep and I have to get up at 8 tomorrow ;_;

I'm just getting ready to go to work but the weather is not tempting me at all. It's grey and windy :/ I tested out a new make-up today and I think it turned out cute. I tried to take a picture but the colors wouldn't show at all. Anyway it's pretty basic but on the top lid I used a dark purple to do a fairly thick line, and on the lower lid I used a glittery turquoise. I also but a thin black line on top of the purple and turquoise and added some shimmery white in the inner corners. An of course mascara! :)

Here's a picture!

And here's how I look like today:
I just straightened my bangs and added some curls to my naturally wavy hair.
I got to go eat now so I won't starve at work ^^

Lazy Sunday

Hmm, I'm still a bit hungover from yesterday but that just proves it was an awesome party! Thanks everyone! Here's a picture of me from yesterday ^^


Today I'm gonna go play tennis, I really need to start doing some more exercise ^^;

After drinking some wine, good music and talking to friends I feel better about the test today ^^
Now I'm getting ready to go out with J, C and M. We're going to a rock bar so it should be fun even though I occaisionally like to go out and dance my heart out :D

P.S. I'm totally addicted to this song :D

New nails

I don' want to think about my test anymore.
So I did some new nails, just simple ones for the pre-christmas party tomorrow :) I added some glitter for a glamorous feel :)

Nervous

I just had breakfast and soon I'm leaving for my test. I'm so nervous! I can't take alot more failures...

New layout!

I changed my layout a few times this week but I think I'm sticking to thi one atleast for a while. The picture is from Harajuku in Tokyo and it was taken in June this year when I was in Japan.

The test was alot harder than I expected but we'll have to wait and see if I passes it.
I'm going to bed now because I have another test tomorrow, wish me luck! ^^

~Rina~

Uh'oh

Today is English test day! I'm nervous, what if I fail?
Yesterday after work I watched Saw 5 with J and C! It was fun and I played some Korean pop to them and they actually started diggin' it, that's something Inever thought would happen! Seriously.

This Saturday my studentorganization is having a pre-christmas party! Last night when I couldn't sleep I came up with a pretty cool idea for an outfit, we'll see on Saturday if it actually turns out to be as cool as I thought :D

I've really fallen for the himegyaru style lately. I've always thought it's cute but now I actually would want to try it, I won't hough, because I get ideas and then I get bored. So I won't run off and buy a Jesus Diamante dress for 300-400 euros and then a few weeks later find that I don't want it anymore ^^ This is something I've learned with age :D
Here is the link for Jesus Diamante :)

Hi~!
Since I've been trying to wake up earlier I have my alarm clock on the other side of the room so that I wouldn't just press the snooze button and continue sleeping. However, the only thing that's different now is that I walk to the other side of the room and press snooze. This morning I did it about 7 times, that's 70 minutes of snoozing! I really need to pick myself up and wake up when the alarm clock goes off. I'm gonna make some lunch soon and watch this weeks episode of Gossip Girl ^^
I have work today so I'll have plenty of time to read the summary of my Fridays testbook. Tomorrow I have an English test, I'm not that worried though cuz I'm pretty confident when it comes to English :D
Bye~

~Rina~

I just came back from my walk.
I want a cigarette... But I don't have any.

~Rina~

Japanese!

This is what I wore to my Japanese class today ^^ People looked at my tights funny though... The skirt is from my favourite brand Sex pot revenge and the rest is old and random off-brand :)

Now I'm going for a walk with S! Ugh, I feel like I've gained weight lately... But a little change in eating habits and that will sort itself out :)
Byebye,

Nails!

My nails turned out to look like decorative pokemon balls, and that was not my intention :D And I have shaky hands so my nail usually turn out not pretty :/ And that's why I usually only put nailpolish and that's it but I felt adventurous today :D

PaRADEiS!

I got my Oyuugi Wagamama-dan x PaRADEiS singles today! The songs are so good! This is one of my favourite bands! This single came in two pressings, one with a pv and the other had an extra track so of course I had to get both ;D
Going back to studying!

I should be studying but I'll just write a quick post first ^^
About my previous post, I was really upset when I wrote it and of course I don't mean that all Finnish speaking people talk shit about Swedish-talking, just a really small part and I just payed too much attention to them so I need to ignore them in the future ^^
On Friday I made fried rice with S and M and then we went to the screening of a Finnish short film. It was about a 15-year old girl interested in Japan that was stuck on her parents' farm :D The movie was surprisingly good, I didn't really have much expectations for it but I thaught it would be kinda amateurish but it was really professional instead! I was impressed with it ^^ Yesterday I stayed home and watched Lost in Translation and studied. No biggie. Today I've studied and played tennis, yay for me :D lol.
I need a new black eyeliner...

Good night!

Pissed of

As some of you may know I live in Finland and here we have two official languages, Finnish and Swedish. I myself count to the people who speak both, Finnish with my mom and Swedish with my dad. I also went to school in Swedish. Since the Swedish-speaking people are a minority, the majority i.e. the Finnish-speaking people like to talk crap about the Swedish-speaking. So here's the deal: I'M SO FUCKING SICK AND TIRED OF CONSTANTLY HAVING TO DEFEND MY IDENTETY. Because ofcourse the language I speak as my mother toungue is a big part of my identety. There are alot of people in Finland who think that we only should have Finnish as an official language and they also breed rumors about the Swedish-speaking people being richer and scheamy. This is why I hate ignorant people, they just piss me off with their stupidity and unability to put themselves in someone elses' position. Fucking hell I just want to beat this guys to a pulp. I'm not violent normally but this has been going on for as long as I can remember and I'm so sick of it.
Yeah so I just wanted to share that with you, bye.

Studies...

I've done some serious studying today even though I went to bed at 4.30 am and I woke up at 11 am :D Yesterday I watched Saw 4 with J and C and after the movie we talked and then at 3 am we started to do each others' hair :D And then J took me home :) Annika came by today and we ate some leftover fried rice and watched Gossip Girl :) Now I'm watching a German show on tv and I'm so hooked on it :D And I have to concentrate so I have to go now.

Fried rice 2!

Hi~
Today I'm gonna make fried rice again! Haha, I'm so addicted :D This time I'll be making it with some friends and in stead of chicken I'm gonna use duck :) I hope it turns out good...
Since it's Wednesday it's time for the weekly quiz at the local bar :D This time we're gonna win for sure...NOT. But at least we're never last :D
Yesterday my mom and I had a mother-daughter bonding day :D I got a facial and she got a massage. Then we had lunch and went home cuz I had to study. I feel more motivated this week and on Sunday I had some help from my brother with study techniques. I feel alot better about studying now :) Sunday was also Father's day so my mom, my brother and I gave my dad pajamas and he was happy about that :D
Bye bye.

Night post!

Since everyone's been writing about it, I'll do it too. A few days ago it was snowing and yesterday when I was taking my friend home a bit outside Helsinki the snow was staying the ground and waaah, I loved how it looked. Here in Helsinki the snow didn't stay on the ground but instead it melted the second it hit the ground ;__;

Anyway, gonna go to sleep now, Tia is spending the night here ;D hahah. Good night!

~Rina~

new hair picture

here's a picture of my new hair, as I said it's like before :D



Oh, and it's been snowing a lot for the past few days but now it's melting and it's just gonna be wet wet Finland :// blaaah

Oh, and my hair turned out nice, it looks a bit more structured and healthy :)

~Rina~

Nothing to do...

I'm bored, I have like an hour almost before I'm gonna go to the hairdressers... What to do hmm, maybe do some make-up ^^ hahah, actually I think I'm gonna do that :D Bye bye!
xx
~Rina~

Tomorrow...

I'm going to the hairdresser's tomorrow! Yay, I'm not gonna do anything special, just cut off some of the dry ends since I'm trying to grow out my hair ^^ And I feel it has been growing really well but every now and then you have to cut it so it'll grow better hehe. I kind of want to dye it some colour but I can't really because then I can't use my extensions... So I'm just gonna keep it this way.

~Rina~

nothing new...

This will not be a long post but I judt wanted to tell you I've been listening to this Korean pop song on repeat for like two weeks now :D It's called Haru Haru by Big Bang. Haru Haru means day by day in Korean (obviously :D) Yea, nothing else. Bye bye :D

~Rina~

Good morning!

Today I woke up at twelwe as the sun was shining in my face. It was like a natural alarm clock ^^ However I had my unnatural alarm clock set on nine o'clock... Fortunately I didn't really have to wake up at nine which is why I didn't, I just wanted to so that I would get some sort of normal rhythm to my life. Anyway so it's new week and I am now commited to studying, I am going to pass my tests and I'm going to get my life in order. Speaking of which, I cleaned my room yesterday and also went through huge piles in my book shelf and I threw away alot of stuff. I heard somewhere that in order to declutter your life you have to declutter your house and I don't know how much comes from knowing this but I feel better so I guess it does have some effect.
Have a good day!

~Rina~

PS. I think I'm getting sick ;_;
