Throwback to Summer in Tallinn

Can't believe its October already. Time really flies and apparently last time I posted something I was catching a cold and today I'm hopefully getting better from a high fever. Ironic. I decided earlier that I wouldn't write much about my personal life in detail here and I'm keeping to that but I just have to say my life changed hugely at the end of August. I have learned so much new in this short time and my life will never be the same again in a wonderful way. Its been a tiring time being fully employed all the time and lacking proper sleep but its so rewarding at the same time.
Anyway here are some pictures from a trip to Tallinn. Panda and I took a boat to Tallinn and chose to spend way too much time in the city as the return trip was late in the evening. I have to say my feet were killing me by the end, but then again we saw so much and had time to shop though I was disappointed in the shops. Dunno when I will have another chance to go shopping in the near future though. It was also a really hot day to be walking around so we had to stop several times to get something to drink. We eventually stopped at a park and Panda took a nap. All in all it was a very tiring trip.
I was wearing another cool maxi skirt that I've been using a lot this summer, just didn't realize to take an outfit picture. I was surprised to find a Victoria's Secret in Tallinn, of course just cosmetics but I was glad to get some new shower gel. Also a nice star cardigan and a top from H&M.

Heritage 1881

Sooooo finally got these pictures out. The places is Heritage 1881, yet ironically the area was built around 1884 but as the number four is unlucky therefore they chose another number :) Anyways its a pretty cool place to see during the evening time with all the lights. We even saw several photographers taking pictures of models in fancy dresses.

So it is a shopping center of sorts with an hotel. My friend was nice enough to mention this place and show us around. I don't think we would have realized this even excited without her, and it was so close the where we were staying.


The hotel reminds me of these old movies I've seen about colonial British places. Very cool, also some pictures of my first visit to Forever 21!! I just love that store and spent several hours there, haha though I didn't get that much from there as I had planned. Gosh both of the things I got have been worn so many times already, there were instant favorites. Alrighty me and my headache are gonna head to sleep now. I hate being sick, hope I feel better tomorrow. Have a good night!

The Feeling When You Realize Summer Is Gone

How I already miss summer, I’m not ready for fall just yet. I was looking at the pictures I took in May in Stockholm and how nice and warm it was then. Now it’s already freezing cold outside and seems I have to say goodbye to my summer clothes yet again. It feels like I didn’t even have enough time to enjoy summer. Well at least I like fall time, as long as it doesn’t rain too much. Indeed I am very late with these pictures but it’s better than never.  I should be sleeping now and I should have packed already, but oops I just had too much to do today though half of it was just watching pretty little liars. Hahah.. Enjoy the pictures and I’m gonna go to sleep now!
Skeleton pirates, not odd at all! Warning lots of pictures of buildings, but there were some pigeons as well :)

I don't know why, but I fell in love with the picture above on the left. Something about it, the tree in blossom the white wood windows open. I love old cities.
My favorite pair of shoes, yeah they have stars! :)





Everywhere and anywhere I go, I find you Hard Rock Cafe. Oh and I always get something to remember you by! Seems I'm a bit too pale for the dress I'm wearing :)

Why can't we have a Burger King in Finland?? I really miss their whoppers, without onions of course. Oh and on the boat I had my first macaroon, couldn't stop eating them!
Oh yeah some pictures of when we were on the way to Stockholm, oddly I put them here in the end. Oki, seriously going to bed. See ya guys tomorrow!

Goofing around in Tsim Sha Tsui

Today's been great. I hanged out with my friend, shot some hoops and washed some clothes. Its really good to be home and I'm really enjoying not doing anything for a change. Too bad this will end soon as I will have to start packing. Its official I'm going to finally move out to my first real home, though the location sucks and most likely gonna transfer soon but anyways its a start. Gosh I'm soon gonna be working like a real adult, so strange I don't feel adult at all haha. Anyways here is more pictures from Hong Kong. I guess it was our third day there and we just walked around Tsim Sha Tsui and then later met up with my friend. Here's the pictures, enjoy.

 The legendary helicopters!! Also this post seems to be full of flowers, I just couldn't get enough of these lovely plants that are rarely seen in Finland! Apparently they are called in Chinese egg flowers but in English they are called Plumeria. No matter the name I love them!

A familiar location from the previous post but only difference is me. The other day we just took pictures together with Panda and those I won't post so good thing we went there again and I took a solo picture :)

Me and Panda at the One shopping mall. Also notice the cool lego window in the below picture!
How cool there is a hotel with my name!!! The Mira. Also chocolate wall, yummy. Well its not real chocolate though in the picture you can see me trying to steal a piece.

The above picture is a truck, I believe a milk truck. How cute, also how cute the little shops in Hong Kong.

I'd heard of Liz Lisa before my trip, so when I saw the store I was kind thrilled but the prices in the store are so pricey that I came out quickly. Also tried my first purikura in Hong Kong with my friend that I met in Canada. It was so nice to see her again!

That's all folks, but more more to come. I missed some pictures from the second day's evening so those should be posted tomorrow. Hope you guys enjoyed.
