Good morning sunshines

Here I am, still totally tired because of yesterday. I woke up at 7 am and headed to school to do my physics exam. After that we grabbed some food from school's restaurant and then I went to the gym. I spent there 2 hours and then I still had to pedal my bike up the hill and manage to get to my home. I did it and I jumped directly in my bath tub. It was so relaxing to scrub all the dirt away and then start studying. I was just so tired that I was ready to go to bed at 7pm... Today I got up at 11 am, ate two slices of dark bread (I don´t really like other type of bread), put some red paprica, cheese, beef-meat and slices of cucumber on it. I also made myself a hot chocolate with cinnamon and ginger. I just love to mix all spices in my food and drinks. :) I also bought myself really cute gloves from H&M's children's apartment and some new beautystuff. Shampoo from Four Seasons (Love it) and my all-time-favourite makeup-powder from Lumene. :) I also made myself a great facial treatment, I had some camomille steam before all face scrubs, masks and lotions. I love to do something relaxing at mornings because if I´m totally tired it kinda wakes me up gently :)

I still have to go to school today, I also found something hanging on my doorbell, my dear neighbour Minna.... :) She loves to decorate my doorbell with toothpast :) Love her :)!

Now it´s time to get ready for school --->

The quality of life should be measured by the number of smiles on your face

I loved the shooting stars, I have never seen them before, but this time they really made me so excited that I just ignored the frost around me and kept on laying on the ground for one hour. I love to do things I usually can´t do and I love the feeling of living the life. That moment I saw my first BIG AND THICK shooting star, it made me scream, I really understood how FAST things can be, that there really is that awesome space and that the stars really are even more amazing things than I thought. I loved the full moon and the light it made above the lake, and oh that fog above the lake... I´m so happy that Riku wanted to take some pictures and we all had to model for him. I think that those photos are amazing, the first one just makes me... amazed and happy because it´s just too beautiful and the second makes me smile because of the hilarious moment and the best company for that trip :)

I´m in love with the life and today I realized that I want to smile the whole time I´m living it. When I went to the dentist and came back I noticed thath NO ONE looked happy. Why can´t people try to enjoy while they still have the opportunity and time to do that? I already know what´s my second new years promice and I hope you´ll do the same :) Keep on smiling and living, if there is nothing to be happy about, you have to change the things so that you can start counting the numbers of smiles on your face and LIVE.

Get AUSSOME with Aussie

 Casual look

Party look

Both Aussome looks made with.... :)

I have a secret to share with you, I´ve become one of the Aussie Angels too! This is a really nice and flattering thing for me, I love Aussie products, especially series Take the heat, Luscious Long, Aussome Volume and Miracle Moist. If you want to get more info please visit the website http://www.aussiehair.com, I usually buy my own Aussie products from Sokos stores here in Finland, and one thing I have noticed about them that they are really good for my hair and my looks ! I got two different products from Aussie: Dual Personality Hi-Hold + Hi-Shine Hairspray and Dual Personality Aussome Volume + Conditioning Mousse. Hairspray contains Australian Sea Kelp Extract that helps to put hair firmly in its place and gives you shine and it has an ultra strong hold and a really good smell (+ it doesn´t turn your hair into hard clumps)! The Mousse contains Australian Wild Cherry Bark Extract that gets you hair thinking big and pampers it at the same time.

About my own hair type: I have this brown, thick hair. I´ve never dyed it and it´s really curly naturally. It doesn´t get greecy easily and I usually have to shampoo it from 2 to 3 times a week (I could do it only once a week but I like the smell ow just washed and moist hair... :) ). Usually I don´t use a diffuser if have no hurry (keeps my hair in much better condition) and I don´t use irons or other things neither daily. I always tend to sleep my hair on a loose bun because it prevents my hair from getting split-ends + it makes it much easier to do my hair on the mornings (when it´s a really good hairday I just have to open the bun and volá)! But I always use good shampoos, conditioners, mousses and hairsprays, hair masks etc so that my hair tends to look great even longer, I think that most important thing is to eat and drink well, use right products and protect you hair from UV, physical and chemical stressfactors (sleep with silk-pillowcase!), frost and girls never camb your hair when it´s totally wet (If you do you´ll look soon like my dear pet-cactus) :)

AND NOW ITS TIME FOR THE AUSSOME TEST-DRIVE!

.... What kind of aussome tricks did the Aussie products do and how?

- First I washed my hair with volumizing shampoo and let the moisturing conditioner do it´s best for 5 minutes (I think this combo works best for my hairtype)

- I put the towel on my head like a turban to suck the most water from my hair (I do not "scrub" my hair with the towl- it´s one stress factor for the hair too)

- Then I took the Take The Heat Spray and sprayed it all over my hair so that my hair would be ready for the action and still "in safe hands"
- After this I took the Aussome Volume + Conditioning Mousse and put it ON MY COMB and I "combed" it through my moist hair from the roots to the ends
- Then It was time for a diffuser to sing it´s SHHH SHHH songs and after that I put my hair to the bun and went to sleep :)
- After ZZZZ-oing enough it was time to spray some Hairspray on my head, let it dry and then I opened the bun.
- After this just take a iron and make yourself more nice curls, straight the ends and curl them again if they´re not good enough and enjoy your beach-babe look :) If you want put some of your hear up with two pins crossed, then more Hairspray and you are ready to be Aussome! :)

Autumn, sunshine, me and my bike

Today I decided to take a biketrip. I had just one lecture and after that I ate with guys at school. When I came back home I noticed that the weather was beyond perfect and I didn´t want to go home yet. Instead od that I went to to lake Valkeinen at took some pictures. It was just too beautiful and it wasn´t even too cold (+12 degs). I think I spent there more than two hours and everybody just looked at me like "Who´s that weirdo with that camera?" I just absolutely loved the whole day today! It was also so easy to fall asleep on the phone yeasteday so that I was just cheerfull all the time :) When I came home I just went to buy myself milk, yoghurt and food before it was time to calculate some physics and do other school-things. You can also see my new shirt and a bag from GT. I didn´t like the shirt as it was before so I took my scissors and a sowing maschine and made it better :) Now it looks just perfect :) Now it´s time for watching some SATC and then I´ll just go to sleep, I have to go training and to the doctor tomorrow :)

Hope You liked the photos :)

Oh how I miss the summer

Past few days I´ve noticed how much I really miss the summer, swimming in the lake, eating icecream in the park on a blanket, hugging with no thick jackets between, the smell of sand, fresh grass and the warm wind. I like autumn too, I love so many things about it but damn, why can´t this world work like following: When you wake up, you have the wether-to-be-button on your left side, so tou can choose between different things like, should it be sprig or winter, is there ing to be +30 or -30 degrees, is the sun shining?.... So you could just have fun everyday and go along with your current mood ... :) It would be nice. Don´t you agree?
