Be you

Gavin James - For You

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Togf-xagTJA

I feel like people spend way too much time thinking about what they look like, what they should look like and how people see them. There's no such things as "you should be/look like this and that". Or there should not be. And it's just so wrong if someone judges you based on your looks. This thought came to my mind when I was scrolling pictures of nice clothes in Pinterest and came across with one very cute asian-style outfit. It had a white short skirt and light blue sweater. It is so not my style. Or that's how I thought while I was also thinking how adorable it was. I sent the pic to my friend and asked her 'what if I wore this kind of outfit?', 'It wouldn't suit me, right?'. What she answered was 'Yes it would suit you!! So adorable.... except the sweater', cause it had a weird ice cream cone with a text on it, lol. Yes, why would it not suit me? Because most of the time I wear more classy or rock-ish styled clothes? Does it mean then I can't wear cute light blue sweaters with odd ice cream cones printed on them? Because it's not my style? I would say it's maybe not the style people are used to see me wear but it doesn't mean it's not my style. Cause everything I wear is my style. Same goes with personality. One day I'm super social and basically talk to everyone I meet when the other day I put my earphones on and try my best to avoid people. Those both are just parts of me, some people just tend to see only one side of me. Or of anyone else. And then those people think if I am having a bad day or something. Nope, I'm not. There are just days when one doesn't feel like being social or wearing nice clothes or spending time to put on makeup or drinking coffee in the morning to be properly awake. So to sum it, yea do whatever you want to do, wear whatever you feel like wearing, it will still all be "you". No-one else is to say anything to that.

Oh, and one other thing. Once one of my friends told me something that got stuck in my mind. 'Do whatever-kind-of random thing whenever and where-ever you want, you can shout in a bus or lie on a street if you feel like it. You should do it. Yes people will stare at you for a moment but then they'll go on and won't remember it anymore'. Or the idea was that and it's so true. Live people, don't be afraid.

Btw, today I decided to go for a little walk... Well, it ended up being 10km and I didn't even get where I was going to. I wanted to go to the airport here to watch the planes come and go. I did see some flying over me, they were so amazing. Next time I will get there, today I just had to turn back cause I needed to get to a meeting... I also want to find a place where I could climb up to a roof and just chill out there. Weird things on my bucket-list, haha.

MKTO - American Dream

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPLeuBXoPXI

I knew when i came to UK that its culture is a bit different from ours in Finland but still mostly the same cause both countries are western anyway. But I thought I could tell you some things I've noticed so far.

1. You might have to show your ID when buying a knife, even a plastic one (that's just plain stupid)
2. Drivers rarely stop to let you cross the road (I'm so gonna get hit by a car someday)
3. People are not as polite as expected
4. The amount of forms to fill out and paperwork is huuuuuge
5. British humor is on the whole other level than Finnish -(^_^')-
6. People laugh at you if you drink from a tap, that's what cats do apparently...
7. Some British accents are way too difficult to understand, sometimes I have no idea what some people are saying, "yeees... *nodding*"
8. Bus drivers are really nice! (mostly..)
9. People make friends really quickly, but not necessarily so strong friendships
10. These people eat LOTS of sandwiches
11. Living here is actually pretty expensive
12. There are too big spiders in this country o.o
13. For some reason people seem less happy here than when compared to Australia where I was a year ago
14.When you get ill, you never get better again
15. Not all the Britts are good at small talk... I feel like a social person at times lol

16. There's Lidl here!!!
17. There aren't so many girls with short hair. Or then I'm in too small city again (T_T)
18. This country will turn you into a crazy person (as if I already wasn't one though....)
19. It's almost impossible to find nice jeans long enough to reach my ankles (am I too tall or just picky??!)
20. There's just something wrong with this country!! :P

Ever get that feeling? I do... I certainly do. Hiding under the blanket for the whole day is luxurious.

I have a list of things I would really want to do but so far I haven't had time, money, chance or just the feeling. But I wish in the near future I can do even some of the things on my to-do-list. I want to go to a rock concert, I want to go swimming in the middle of a night, I want to draw properly again (it's been a year or so since I last drew something... o_o), I want to sing, I want to go jogging, I want to have a great night out with my friends, I want to go hiking and I really want to learn to dance modern dance, ballet or salsa.

It looks like me on those days I've had a bit too much coffee... Or sugar.

SVRCINA - Meet me on the battlefield

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZrddJPGp1I

Today has been an amazing day!! Maybe the best day for months. I woke up at 10am but got up 11.30... I had two options: go wash laundry or sleep later, well it was not that hard of a decision to make. After taking my morning slowly I head out 1.30pm to the audition for contemporary dance society in my university. I was quite nervous cause I don't actually have any experience on contemporary dance, just of rhythmic gymnastics, ice skating and a bit of ballet... But I love dancing! And it was so much fun, difficult but fun. Though I dunno if they'll choose me to be part of the team/society because there were so many girls who had a lot of background either on contemporary dance or ballet... And I'm not that good. But we'll see what happens. Anyways I had a really good time. After the audition I went jogging and I can tell you, it felt sooooo good! After three weeks' break I could not have wished more. Now my legs are sore, my back and arms hurt and I feel so exhausted. In other words: I could not be happier at the moment cause I know I've been able to exercise today. The pain in the muscles after exercising is one of the best things in the world, lol. That's something everyone doesn't understand though.

My evening I'm spending alone at home!!!! Wooow... such rare occasion. Now I can play music loud, sing and basically do whatever I want, haha. I will also watch Step Up 3D and eat one of the delicious raspberry white chocolate cookies my roomie made. -(^.^)- This Sunday has been so nice and relaxing, just what I needed. I haven't had a single day when I wouldn't have done some school stuff or work. And I would have a lot of things to do now too but... I will give myself a day off and continue working tomorrow.

In memory of the person whom my family lost year ago yesterday. I miss you so much. Hope you are in a better place right now smiling down on us. Take care of your card game skills so we can play when we meet again!

Yes, unexpected things happen in life, for sure, that should be taken for granted. You can't always prepare yourself for everything. But you can always trust that things can get better again, or worse, and they will if you just let them. But what I want to say is 'don't worry'. Cause there's nothing to worry about to be honest. Yes, life gives you s*it, yes you are under loads of stress and yes you will trip to your own feet in front of your crush. But all that is just temporary. If you start to think about it how many good memories can you come up with right now? I got quite many. There are so many good things that have happened in everyone's lives, you might not just remember them right now. But they are there. So why wouldn't you get more of them soon again? I know I will. Maybe I even get a good night's sleep and wake up with a bright mind to my tomorrow's 9am lecture (...which so won't happen). But I can always imagine it could... Lol. But don't worry, don't take life too seriously. It's just life, one messy bit.
