All Packed

No, it has nothing to do with moving or traveling. It only concerns me, leaving my apartment in -12C. Damn. I have no clue, how I gonna survive this winter. Strangely, every next year is more and more difficult for me to cope with the cold, and this year is especially bad. I wish I…

New Year Fears

Happy New Year!!!! How did you celebrate? We were in Helsinki, my favourite destination here in Finland. Always a lot to do, places to go, people to talk to. Capital is capital. The celebration included a late lunch in our favourite Chinese restaurant, a nap, a new set of make-up, three-course dinner, and a couple…

New Year

Year 2022 is almost over. It's a year full of unpredictability and instability, which in the end somehow worked out. This year was full of events, both good and bad, both personally and in the world. What a roller coaster. Again, I felt like life was testing my limits. Again, I passed the test. I…

5-year Old Me as a Hairdresser

I guess I was 5, maybe 4 at the point when I decided to play as a hairdresser. I had regular paper scissors as the main tool, I just needed customers. Luckily for my friends, the urge to be a hairdresser occurred, when no one was around. So, I took my dolls. I mostly clipped…

I Did Go Alone

To the concert. A while ago, I had a post about how much I want to go to the concert, but none of my friends in the city are up to the same music. Going alone is something against my culture, and I had many worries about being seen alone in such type of events.…

Customer Survey

We all get a customer survey request from time to time. The meaning of the customer survey is to develop better services in future for us, customers. But how many of us are actually replying? I have to confess that I'm among those who don't. I have recently thought about the reason for ignoring the…

Emergency Calls on a Date

I have not done it for ages, but in my early 20s it was not that rare occasion. Between the girls, we had the agreement that if you have a really bad date, you secretly sent a SOS message. After this message, a receiver calls you, saying that there is some kind of a disaster,…

Halloween Pumpkin

It's almost a month since we had Halloween. I originally come from the culture, where Halloween is not celebrated. However, I was fascinated with the holiday, since I was 16. Then, I moved to Finland, where is luckily a lot interested in Halloween. There are constantly some events devoted to Halloween celebration, and of course,…

Can’t stand the cold

The first snow has arrived, and I'm terrified. I absolutely cannot stand the cold. I am not new to it, but every year it's more and more difficult for me to cope with negative temperatures. I already have the warmest coat on me, and it's not even the coldest month yet. I immediately got a…
