yoo yoo

Today I spent three hours in a train and had the prettiest "lunch" (maybe it was more like a dessert) ever with me.

.

Sitting here, trying to write an essay. I'm so easily distracted. One moment I'm reading a photojournalism book and then: "oh maps, maybe I'm a bit hungry, the sun is shining, I have mamiya 6 this weekend what should I do, where should I go..."

I think I finally understood and accepted that the summer is over. Yesterday was really warm though, but I'm already looking a bit for a new winter coat. It's hard, cause nowdays you can't tell what the winter will be like.

Weekend

Friday was pretty good at Flow Festival, saw Kings of Convenience, Múm, Jamie Lidell and surprisingly good Caspa & Rusko.

Saturday was rainy and I couldn't really concentrate. Borko was fun! Before we left we ate delicious tofu soup.

Today has been lazy, we woke up at 6am (this isn't the lazy part) and drove to airport to pick up bf's parents. After they left we slept some more and cooked tofu-red lentil-satay sauce & rice.

I think a thuderstorm is coming, I should sleep soon and wake up at 6am again.

Silly me, but it makes me happy

Suddenly this morning, I started to write my final work. I'm studying photography and I've just started my 2nd year (of three years) so I should have much more important things to do than plan my final work. Somehow it just gives me hope and will probably bring me back to something I miss a lot. We'll see.

It's Flow Festival weekend. Múm and Kings of Convenience today!

I've been thinking of buying digital slr, Canon. Even though digital is not my favorite at all I think I'll need it.

Goodbyes aren't easy

Friends are coming back from Korea after staying one year there. It made me remember the times we came back (christmas 2005). I'm sad I haven't been able go back since. I miss our friends, neighbors, home, ginkgo trees, food, Hongdae a lot.







Welcome back m&t!

The scene

Pure love & one of the best songs ever!

i said it wouldn't affect me that much, but it did

Morning was lazy just like all the other mornings this summer, watching Los Serrano, reading newspaper and eating two slices of rye bread. Well, it was the last time as on Monday I'll be back in school again. Can't really say I'm looking forward to it right now, but probably a daily routine is welcome again. It's been raining and I've stayed home listening to Seabear and hiding. I've been quite happy though.

In the afternoon I took a bus to city centre, we ate a really good dinner, bought lokum and went to see Anton Corbijn exhibition. I really want to learn all the secrets of darkroom. School starts on Monday and it means learning two things I dislike, digital & flash. I have to learn even tho I'm more into film, medium format and natural light.

New project

Few weeks ago I got an old table from a Finnish auction website. I've needed a new working table for so long, but didn't feel like going to Ikea once again so it took a while to find the right one. It's so cute with a little drawer & porcelain knob and the wood is just beautiful. I've been removing paint (well, five layers of it) with a paint remover gel, which is pretty handy but the smell is just the worst! It has five layer of paint, mint green, darker green, blue, light yellow & cream white.

We took care of a friends' dog a couple of days. Today M came to pick her up and brought us focaccia and donuts with apple jam! So delicious. We also bought strawberries to put in a freezer. Earlier this week 5kg cost 23 euros but today only 18e, win win! Tony didn't believe me at all when I told him that strawberry is not actually a berry but a false berry.
