So tonight i'm gonna go out to a friends 18th birthday, and i put up some pictures of me getting ready :) and i love my silver H&M bathrobe. I wear it everyday when i'm getting ready because its so easy to put on when you come out of the shower, or can't find anything to wear to go quickly to the kitchen at night, or any sort of situation when you need to cover yourself up ;) haha. Alsooo there's an lovely outfit, i was gonna wear that shirt today with my black/gold shirt, but then i looked outside and it seemed cold, so i decided to just go with the basic black stockings and shorts. :)

Oh, i also made a formspring, so literally.. ASK ME ANYTHING you would like to know :)

stressed out

2012-02-09T09:52:00.000-08:00

Today has been a long day.. This morning i had to wake up an hour earlier since my mom had to take my sister to school and i had to go with the same ride (which was so not fun) but at least i got those beautiful sunrise photos when i was in the car, thank god i took my camera with me! then at school me and Becky were really hungry, well okay i was really hungry, and we got a bunch of food from the store and ate that, then, originally my school ends at 4, but i had to stay until 5:30, and i spoke with this girl who was practicing for her YO kirjoitukset (Final high school exams) and she was telling me how she's been studying most of her classes in English but the exams are in Finnish, and you HAVE to write in Finnish, and well my Finnish isn't that great so how the hell am i suppose to get a good grade for that, and it just made me really sad, stressed, confused and all kinds of mixed emotions that like.. i think i have to change schools. I have no choice! These exams will depend of my entire future and they have to go well! I need to change schools.. :/ ughh... sjfhdjg.

full moon

2012-02-07T11:24:00.000-08:00

Tonight there is a full moon, and i tried to take a picture of it but my camera doesn't really make the moon look so great, but at least it's better than nothing. But you guys should really go outside right now, if you live in Finland, and take a look at it. It's beyond beautiful. I'm really into space and all that stuff, so i'll probably be blogging more about that :3 Also yesterday i went to Robert's Coffee with Christine, it was fun, even though it didn't last that long, it was nice. This morning the sky was SOO gorgeous! It was all pink and amazing as you can see in the photo above. It was incredible. I pulled an all-nighter the night before, so yesterday i went to bed at like 18:00 and woke up at like 8.. so there was about some 14 hours of sleep = AMAZING. But for some reason, i still felt tired when i woke up, and you can even see in the photo of me that i took in the morning, i still look tired.. strange. :)

OH also i have started reading L.A CANDY, by Lauren Conrad. I have already read over 150 pages, and i love it. Highly recommend it! :)

the weekend

2012-02-05T11:13:00.000-08:00

The weekend was a lot of fun! :) Christine's house hangout/party, i had a really good time, and then yesterday at my kota hangout, it was fun too! maybe the group of people wasn't really the best choice because i had my school + my old school, and everyone didn't really know each other so, it didn't go as smoothly as i wanted it to, but i hope everyone still managed to have a good time at the hangout. Now i'm just recovering, and i'm pretty tired.. and tomorrow i have school.. oh god. Oh well, the only positive thing i see about tomorrow is that i keep getting one day closer to summer holiday, so i'm happy for that:)!

leaving out

2012-02-03T08:36:00.000-08:00

So i'm just about to leave my house to go out to Christine's place, and i decided to experiment with my eye-shadow! Since i just realized (going through my make up bags) i found those! I didn't really do anything spectacular because it's just a fun hangout, so i don't need any club make up :D so i did a little smokey eye look, and some pink lips. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. I first thought it wouldn't but surprisingly i don't look too bad. :D haha, anywhoo. Today was a super cold, wintery day, and i took that photo when i was in the bus leaving school. Today was my last exam day! THANK GOD. No more stress! Now time to just relax over the weekend! Also i love my cross necklace. It was my moms and she gave it to me, and i think its just so beautiful, like the details on it, how there is that one diamond that is a beige/golden color. It's so simple, and i wear it really often. Though i'm not exactly religious, i still like to wear it. :)

one day before the weekend

2012-02-02T05:51:00.001-08:00

So today i decided to treat myself with a berliinimunkki after my exam. It was so good! :D They are like literally my favorite pastries to eat! I would kill for these :D also as i was this morning getting ready to school, i didn't have time to take a shower last night, since i take one every day, so my hair seemed a little damp, and greasy and i didn't want it touching my face :D so i put pins in my hair to hold a strands of hairs, and i pin it back. I do this often, and i think it's a really cute, quick and easy hairstyle. and i LOVE my pins. I think its so cute when they have these little decorations on them! its too cute! :D

also i went to the store and got some snacks for my dogs :) unfortunately the ones i bought (as shown in the photo's) My dog Rocky doesn't like them. You can tell from the last photo that he just sniffs it and then turn away. But my other dog could eat the whole box of those treats :D strange.. Rocky is french, so maybe its got something to do with that, since their so picky and high in cuisine, haha! anyway i can't wait for the weekend because test week will be OVER! and friday, Christine has no parents home, so bunch of friends are gonna go party there, and then on saturday I'm gonna throw an outside hangout where we just sit around a fire, grill marshmellow's and just relax. take it easy.

Week of Hell

2012-02-01T05:53:00.000-08:00

So, its the week of hell! I am right now in the middle of koeviikko/test week. I have done 3/6 tests.. The first two went well, but today's exam, I FAILED. It was long math's, and it was really hard.. I answered only like 1 question out of 8! that is definitely a fail... :( It's so depressing, knowing that i'm gonna have to redo that test. ugh. kill me now.

Those webcam photos (yes i know, their not too pretty :D but i couldn't be bothered to take a million photos until a good one comes) But i love my sweater/jumper. It's so warm, and comfortable! I wore it today for school :) Also there are some photo's of the cookies me and Oona made, when she slept over! They were super delicious! I feel like making some more now, since I basically ate them all in less than 24 hours! haha. And then there are photo's of when me and Christine were out on the weekend, it was a really cold night!

And last but not least... I decided to share my famous WALL! (the last picture) I have been working on this wall, putting stuff on it for about 3-4 years now! Every time i go to the movies, or buy something, or get something and if it is able to be pinned to a wall, i put it there:D So there is like my entire life of the past years of everything! Literally every little single thing you see on this wall, has a story/meaning/reason behind it.

Before

After

So, me and Christine have decided to go on a diet, since summer is in a few months, we want to get those beach bodies! I put up this up on my door, so i am reminded everyday that i have to stick to my diet, if i want to start losing weight. I went on a really good site that Christine showed me where you put your weight, height etc. And it shows you how many calories per day you should eat in order to lose weight! It's pretty handy. Here is the site: http://www.healthyweightforum.org/eng/calculators/calories-required/

One thing i would want to share with everyone is that YOGURT + BLUEBERRIES are MAGIC! for your body! You have no idea how amazing it is! Yogurt helps keep that flat stomach, and it would be good to eat one bowl per day, doesn't really matter how big your bowl is, but just eat yogurt everyday and you will see an incredible difference, in fast results! Blueberries are then one of the 'super foods' I googled it, and they are one of the best type of foods to eat in a diet. Blueberries can be expensive this time of the year in Finland, so the yogurt will do. But just incase you want more, then add in the blueberries and eat this everyday! :) I hope to keep up my diet, and get the results that i want for summer!

you got mail

2012-01-29T01:33:00.000-08:00

So, i ordered from Amazon, this 3-step ACNE SOLUTIONS products. And i have heard that they really work, and are amazing to get clear skin! Well i don't know if this is true or not, so i ordered them. I am going to try it out for some time and then i will let you guys know if my skin has gotten better or not :)! But i really do think they will work! :) All 3 bottles, you have to order separately, and you can get them in many sizes, but the ones i bought, all 3 of them together was around 80-90 euros. But they do sell much smaller ones for 10 euros per bottle? But they wont then last that long. But if you don't wan't to order all three, but want to know which one of these is the most best to buy, then it's the treatment. Without the treatment then it's pointless. So get that :) Any questions about the products, let me know :)

cold winter

2012-01-27T07:21:00.000-08:00

I had such a fun time with Oona last night :)! We went to the jacuzzi and watched the stars, we watched a movie, baked REALLY good cookies (I have photos of them, ill post them later) and then we slept in til 13:00 or something, and had cookies and noodles for breakfast :D it was a weird but delicious combination! :) now oona left, annddd im bored! but luckily christine's gonna come over later on tonight, and then i also have to study for koeviikko.. :(

life

2012-01-26T08:11:00.000-08:00

Life, sometimes it's hard sometime's its not. but life is short, and we should stop wasting it and start living it. You never know when your life might end, so spend every minute of it being happy.

beach waves, i miss those days.

2012-01-25T13:11:00.000-08:00

I miss the beach, the sand, the sun. EVERYTHING. I miss my tan the most! Being in finland has made me soo pale... I look like a ghost. But anymore a few more months until school is over, and summer 2012 begins... <3

What you need to survive a school day :)

Spanishh <3

CARROTS!! <3 my school lunch

My bestfriend :)

Hey! So today was a fun day! School was okay, as you can see i had fun with my camera :D Though i wish it could be better quality, but oh well. Not much you can do about that. Then after school me and Oona went to Elixia, for gym! we ran 400 calories! It's time to start getting that beach body for summer! Alsooo, i have no school on friday <3 ihanaaaa, can't wait to sleep in, and tomorrow oona is gonna come sleepover:) so you will eventually see more photos of that then! It's going to be a good LONG weekend :) can't wait!

some of the greatest friends i have

2012-01-24T10:41:00.000-08:00

I have known these girl's for quite a while now, and i must say they are the bestest friends i could ever ask for. We spent a whole year of dramatic middle school and survived to stay strong! Without these girl's i could of not survived 9th grade, they are the reason what made it so special. I hope to never lose them, cause they are my greatest friends. I love you guys! :)

coffee house

2012-01-24T07:48:00.000-08:00

Today during my 3 hour skip at school, me and Becky went to coffee house and we got COOKIES! and some hot chocolate, and Becky took something random to drink.. I can't remember anymore what it was. I must say DO NOT let this cookie lie to your eyes. I know it looks good, which is why i chose it but the cookie i chose, the wheat/kaura one, it tasted SO bad! hyi. Whoever goes to coffee house and doesn't know which cookie to take, i beg you, please take the dark chocolate one! :D It's for your own good! :) (Which by the way, the dark chocolate cookie tasted like heaven! It was really good!)

one day my prince will come

Dress ordered from: www.ASOS.com (It's a really great site, with a lot of pretty dresses!)

a piece of me

2012-01-22T14:57:00.000-08:00

Hey! I'm Johanna. I am 16 years old, from Finland, Espoo. I go to school/lukio in Helsinki. I'm pretty stubborn, weird, crazy, insecure, loud and also shy at the same time. I have a dream of moving to NEWYORK, when i'm older with my bestfriend Christine. She will most likely be seen a lot in my blog! I have a great family, living with my mom, dad, grandma (her boyfriend is over a lot, haha yes i know, boyfriend!) older brother and older sister. So i'm the youngest in the family. OH, plus my two dogs: Rocky and Chewy. I have had them basically my whole life! Since i was a little girl, so they are everything to me.

I love: the color white, summer, nail polish, nature, lipstick, boys, magazines, skins, sun, eyeliner, heels, glitter, earrings, necklaces, english accent, patterned stockings, bracelets, ankle bracelets, photoshoot's, perfume, designer bags, long hair, dark eyebrows, blue eyes, bonfires, parties, friends.. the list can go on forever :)!

My greatest fear would be.. not my death, but the death of someone else, the loss of someone i love. I know i'm very lucky to not have experienced that yet, but eventually the day will come, which terrifies me.

My favorite quote is: In the end, it's not going to matter how many breaths you took, but how many moments took your breath away.
