Too long silence

As some of you may have noticed, I haven't updated my blog in ages. A lot has happened since the last post. First of all, we got engaged few weeks ago! <3 Sebastian, I love you. And the second HUGE change in my life is....*drums please* I'm pregnant! Definitely not what I had planned but I'm not going to complain. Much. Lol. Although I wouldn't mind to get rid of morning sickness but at least I'm not vomiting all the time anymore. Think positive, stay pretty! ;)

I still love college and living in London. Now I just need to find new apartment since my aunt is coming back from US. I guess I could stay with her if I can't find affordable apartment before she comes back. It wouldl feel weird though. I'm so used to live on my own. But we'll see how this situation changes.

Couple more weeks and we will find out wether our little one is boy or girl! Bastian is sure it's a girl. :) I'm sure I will go shopping for baby clothes right after the ultrasound. I've been already checking some stores like Gap and H&M and they have so cute clothes for the little ones! It's like heaven. Soon I have to also buy some maternity clothes since I'm starting to get a baby bump.

Gotta go now! I'm in Birmingham and I promised I wouldn't spend whole night on the computer...

I've been MIA

I am so sorry I have been MIA past weeks. I didn't mean to do that but at first I was so upset about my dad and then we had Fresher's Week and now school has started and suddenly I'm super busy. Now I finally managed to find time to update my blog!

As I said, school has started and so far I love it. I don't remember if I've mentioned that I study English and Film Studies here in London. This is my first year and also my first week of college so I'm a bit confused and over-excited from time to time. :) It takes me about 25 minutes to get to school from my apartment. First I walk to the tube station which takes like 5 minutes and then it takes 15 minutes by tube to the other station and then I have to walk 2 more minutes to get to our campus. So it's not too far away, is it?

This year I have to take 8 modules, 6 in English and 2 in Film Studies. All of them sound so much fun. Like Reading Poetry or Writing London. I don't know if they really are fun but I'll find that out sooner or later. :) I really think I'm in right place here. I enjoy walking around the campus and I've got so many new friends already.

Oh crap, now I need to go! I have to get ready for a party!

Daddy, how can you walk out on me now?

How could he does this to me, his own daughter? I know I haven't been part of his life before this but that's not my fault. I didn't know I was adopted until this summer. I'm happy I have great, loving family but it still hurts. I know I don't need him but what if I want to know him? Maybe he could tell me something about my mom too. My family won't talk about her. They don't understand I need to know.

Thank you all who have been there for me. Special thanks for my lovely friends on MCMB! You rock!

Over the rainbow

My lovely little doggie is now gone.

I miss him.

Thank god I still have my little ones, CeeCee

and Flow

Aren't they cute?

I'm trying to find my way

Hi guys, sorry I haven't posted anything in ages but I've been busy. Okey, not really. But I got new job and Bastian was here and...endless excuses! Anyway, now I'm here and I'm going to tell you something about me. As you may know, I'm short (around 5'1") and finding clothes that fit is sometimes almost impossible. Couple of months ago my friend told me about this awesome site. Before entering that site I had no idea what my body shapy was, what colours suit me or what my face shape was. Maybe it was good, maybe not. Either way now I know those things and it's easier to decide what to wear or buy. So I have round face, rectangular body and my colour palette is Soft Summer. Before this I was so interested in fashion but now that I know what suits me, I also care about it more.

I still do have a problem with finding clothes small enough. Shortening hemlines isn't my favorite past time, you know. Thank god I live in UK now and we have stores that sell petite fashion (e.g. Miss Selfridge's). I've also learned to love Gap jeans which is good because Gap sells also short leg jeans. I couldn't live without those! Now I sound like some kind of paid blogger but I'm not. So I'm just telling how I feel and although I wouldn't mind if they paid me for doing so, they don't.

Susie, are you happy now?

In the middle of chaos

Now I know what chaos is. After seeing what those riots did to this city I felt so bad. Why did they have to destroy everything? I cannot understand the point behind all that violence. Maybe it is not my job to judge other people but my opinion is if there was a reason for the riots (and I believe there was), it didn't become clear. There are other, much efficient ways, to make people listen to what you have to say.

My next post will be the Summer Playlist: Finnish Edition. I try to post it tomorrow but I won't promise anything. I might be busy with other stuff. ;)
