Project 365

Day 104 - 7th September 2010

2010-09-07T06:08:00.000-07:00

I picked up the school books I ordered... those 6 books were £170 and weighed 5kg!

Day 103 - 6th September 2010

2010-09-07T06:07:00.000-07:00

I finally got my necklaces somewhat organised. When they were in the bag I didn't bother using them cause they were all tangled up in each other...

Day 102 - 5th September 2010

2010-09-07T06:06:00.000-07:00

I had a really nice time practising my drama homework with a completely dark room only lit by one candle!

Day 101 - 4th September 2010

2010-09-07T06:05:00.000-07:00

Band of Horses! They were simply fantastic!

Day 100 - 3rd September 2010

2010-09-07T06:04:00.000-07:00

Day two of the festival. Aha playing for 13000 people.

Day 99 - 2nd September 2010

2010-09-07T06:03:00.000-07:00

Me, a classmate and her friend at the festival, waiting for Ozzy Osbourne. Since blogger resized my photo, it's really blurry.

Day 98 - 1st September 2010

2010-09-07T06:02:00.000-07:00

I picked up this, which was the evidence of me working at the festival and also what gave me a free pass on one of the days.

Day 97 - 31st August 2010

2010-09-07T06:00:00.001-07:00

I bought this rain poncho for the festival just in case. I had to use it on my last day...

Day 96 - 30th August 2010

2010-09-07T05:59:00.001-07:00

I haven't had one of these since the last time I was in London, and I love them so much. So when I spotted them in the store, I couldn't leave without them :p

Day 95 - 29th August 2010

2010-09-07T05:58:00.000-07:00

Whoever lived here before me, left this pig for me. Isn't he cute? He fits so perfectly near my desk, cause he looks as lazy as I feel too often :p

Day 94 - 28th August 2010

2010-09-07T05:57:00.000-07:00

The school books I've bought so far.

day 93 - 27th August 2010

2010-09-07T05:56:00.000-07:00

I made three new cards, and these are two of them. I guess I just felt inspired by my most recent purchases!

Day 92 - 26th August 2010

2010-09-07T05:54:00.000-07:00

Three other girls in my class and I recreated a painting by Henri Matisse in art class. I think it turned out pretty well. Even though poor Madame Matisse ended up looking much more like Mr. Matisse.

Day 91 - 25th August 2010

2010-09-07T05:53:00.000-07:00

I tried out a new nail polish and it turned out bright pink with shimmer in it. The picture doesn't really show the actual colour.

Day 90 - 24th August 2010

2010-09-07T05:51:00.000-07:00

I bought these colourful pens for school. Love them!

Day 89 - 23rd August 2010

2010-08-23T09:30:00.001-07:00

Today was the first day of my second year at uni, and this is what I wore...

Day 88 - 22nd August 2010

2010-08-23T09:29:00.000-07:00

I was playing around with the settings on my camera, and this is one of the many pics I got from that. I like how it turned out.

Day 87 - 21st August 2010

2010-08-23T09:28:00.000-07:00

Dad, my sister and I went fishing and I caught this one! It was heavy as hell, but I guess that's because it was fighting. It wasn't really big, so... You can kind of see the size compared to dad's hand :p

Day 86 - 20th August 2010

2010-08-23T09:26:00.000-07:00

I went home for the weekend, and I guess someone was happy to see me. As soon as I laid back after eating dinner, she jumped up <3

Day 85 - 19th August 2010

2010-08-23T09:24:00.000-07:00

I "helped myself" to one of these at school. They're free for all students, but especially aimed at first years. It's a school calendar where you can write down work etc.

Day 84 - 18th August 2010

2010-08-23T09:22:00.000-07:00

I bought a bunch of supplies for school. Forgot to take pics of the cute pens I got, but I love everything. Now I just need the 22 books on the reading list...

Day 83 - 17th August 2010

2010-08-18T13:56:00.000-07:00

I had to pack all my stuff up in a hurry because I hate packing and always postpone it until the last minute. Took this picture when I was nearly done. I can hardly believe I had my whole wardrobe for five weeks stuffed into that one bag. It's not even a huge bag.

Day 82 - 16th August 2010

2010-08-18T13:54:00.000-07:00

The flowers my sister got a few days, or more, back are still looking good. I hate that this picture came out so blurry.

Day 81 - 15th August 2010

2010-08-18T13:53:00.000-07:00

I spent the whole freakin' day reformatting and re-installing everything on my laptop. Including moving all the files to the desktop, burning them to cds and then moving them back to my laptop.

Day 80 - 14th August 2010

2010-08-18T13:51:00.000-07:00

I've been selling the books from last year at uni, and to keep track of it all, I ended up with a bunch of different notes in my day-planner.

Day 79 - 13th August 2010

2010-08-18T13:50:00.000-07:00

Mum and I went on another hike in the lovely weather. I've never been this high up on this particular mountain. A neighbour caught up with us on the way down and promised he'd take me to the top one day!

Day 78 - 12th August 2010

2010-08-18T13:48:00.000-07:00

My dog relaxing in our driveway while dad's working the tractor. She loves running around it, but as soon as he leaves the property with it, she lays down and waits for him...most of the time.

Day 77 - 11th August 2010

2010-08-18T13:47:00.000-07:00

Mum and I went hiking with a neighbour even though it rained. And we came across this mushroom growing on a tree. I think it looks like a shower head :p

Day 76 - 10th August 2010

2010-08-18T13:45:00.000-07:00

Just gathering evidence of the crappy rainy summer we had...

Day 75 - 9th August 2010

2010-08-18T13:44:00.000-07:00

My grandparents spent a night again on their way home from my aunt's. And guess who found his way under the curtain as soon as they arrived?

Day 74 - 8th August 2010

2010-08-08T09:41:00.000-07:00

I took a hot bath and used a self heating face mask just because I felt like it. That always makes me feel good and relaxed. I'm fully aware that I look like a sunburnt tomato though... And I wish I had a tan (yeah, I know I'm not pale, but this is my normal colour. I want a tan).

Day 73 - 7th August 2010

2010-08-08T09:38:00.000-07:00

My parents had a few friends over for a BBQ, so my sister invited her best friend and the three of us stayed in all night, playing this game. It was fun and I won!

Day 72 - 6th August 2010

2010-08-08T09:36:00.000-07:00

Dad's most recent project. It's gonna look really neat when it's finished. Better than waist high weeds.

Day 71 - 5th August 2010

2010-08-08T09:34:00.000-07:00

I have no idea, but he always does this. He's got one curtain here and one at my grandma's place that he always lies down under :)

Day 70 - 4th August 2010

2010-08-08T09:32:00.000-07:00

My sister, Raija, grandma, Keron, me and mum on a hike, posing for the camera (used a timer). The fog was getting really bad so we hurried down after this.

Day 69 - 3rd August 2010

2010-08-08T09:30:00.000-07:00

My sister passed her driving test and got her licence, so mum and I bought her a bouquet to congratulate her. It's absolutely beautiful, even though it's really simple.

Day 68 - 2nd August 2010

2010-08-08T09:28:00.000-07:00

Beautiful lilies in our yard. I love these flowers!

Day 67 - 1st August 2010

2010-08-08T09:27:00.000-07:00

Can I have some of that too? Please? It looks so tasty! *drool*

Day 66 - 31st July 2010

2010-08-08T09:25:00.000-07:00

We celebrated my aunt's 40th birthday. I think this picture describes the night pretty well... My aunt's boyfriend is blurred out on purpose.

Day 65 - 30th July 2010

2010-08-08T09:23:00.000-07:00

Kinda felt the need to document that we actually had some nice weather during the summer...

Day 64 - 29th July 2010

2010-08-08T09:09:00.000-07:00

No picture yet, coming as soon as I have the cable to transfer pics from the cell.

In the mean time, you can see my sister's picture here.

My family went out on a boat ride, and on the way back home, the sky went bright red. The sunset was incredibly beautiful to watch!

Day 63 - 28th July 2010

2010-08-08T09:07:00.000-07:00

Can you spot the dog? Raija clearly loves to hide... You can't tell by the pic, but she's actually looking at me, not out the window. She even tried getting further behind it. We once found her sitting between the lawn mower and a water tank thing, under a table, just sitting there...

Day 62 - 27th July 2010

2010-08-08T09:04:00.000-07:00

My sister and I bought matching scarves. I'm in love with it. The colour is pretty, the size is great, and it's so versatile (it can even be used as a dress).

Day 61 - 26th July 2010

2010-08-08T09:01:00.000-07:00

I'm not sure if this is the best place to chill out. It looked like that thing above her head was going to fall down and squash her. Luckily it didn't.

Day 60 - 25th July 2010

2010-07-25T14:37:00.000-07:00

It's our second day of sun (the first was last Saturday) and how am I forced to spend it? Mowing the lawn, delivering empty bottles for recycling and picking up grass after dad did some more mowing with a machine that doesn't pick up the grass... fun times!

Day 59 - 24th July 2010

2010-07-25T14:34:00.000-07:00

We were driving home from my grandparents' place and stopped at this beautiful place so dad could smoke and the dog do her business.

Day 58 - 23rd July 2010

2010-07-25T14:32:00.000-07:00

Game night! We spent hours playing "uno". This is me being silly while someone else is figuring out what to do with their cards.

Day 57 - 22nd July 2010

2010-07-25T14:31:00.000-07:00

Grandma's dog, Keron, sleeping in the door opening. We couldn't open the door more, cause he'd only run away...

Day 56 - 21st July 2010

2010-07-25T14:29:00.000-07:00

I went hiking with my mum, sister and grandma once the sun came out. It was nice, but too short for my taste. The view was great though! I used the self timer on the camera to take this. Mum doesn't qualify as a photographer :p

Day 55 - 20th July 2010

2010-07-25T14:27:00.000-07:00

Mum, my sister, grandma, a friend of grandma's, the dogs and I went for a walk as soon as it stopped raining. We barely made it back before it started. Week upon week of rain is fun... or not.

Day 54 - 19th July 2010

2010-07-25T14:25:00.000-07:00

I took this on the way back from the wedding. We passed quite a lot of reindeer. They're all shedding, which is why it looks so ugly :p

Day 53 - 18th July 2010

2010-07-25T14:23:00.000-07:00

This is my cousin E's son, Mateo. The first time I saw him was at the wedding, but this was my first proper look at him and what a gorgeous little boy! He looks so much like both his parents, and a lot like his sister.

Day 52 - 17th July 2010

2010-07-25T14:20:00.000-07:00

The highlight of my summer so far - my cousin's wedding. This picture was taken after the ceremony. Elise and Kaia (their daughters) were flower girls and Elise (left) carried the rings. The bride looked absolutely gorgeous and the groom was so handsome. Love them all so much!

Day 51 - 16th July 2010

2010-07-25T14:17:00.000-07:00

After work, I went back to my place to pack and then took the bus to where I was meeting my parents. Then we all drove for 8 hours, with the final destination being the town my cousin lives in. This photo was taken on the way there, around 11.30pm.

Day 50 - 15th July 2010

2010-07-25T14:15:00.000-07:00

I came across this beautiful flower, and as I love taking pictures of flowers, this one was too pretty to be an exception.

Day 49 - 14th July 2010

2010-07-25T14:12:00.000-07:00

I read a post on a forum about eye colours, and wanted to take a closer look at my own...But taking a picture of my own eye was easier said than done. This is the best result I came up with, and my eye colours are a whole lot more visible in real life.

Day 48 - 13th July 2010

2010-07-13T11:00:00.000-07:00

I went shopping today, as there are sales all over the city. I got two leggings, four vest tops, a short sleeved top and a long sleeved top <3

Day 47 - 12th July 2010

2010-07-13T10:57:00.000-07:00

I got my hair cut, and I wasn't too happy with it when I left the salon, but after styling it myself, it doesn't look too bad in my opinion. Ignore my beautiful pj's.

Day 46 - 11th July 2010

2010-07-13T10:55:00.000-07:00

I spent the weekend at my grandparents' house with two of my cousins whom I haven't seen in over two years. I had to settle with a pic of grandma's dog though... Elisa was outside constantly, and Mikael was in his room with his laptop all day. Fun times.

Day 45 - 10th July 2010

2010-07-13T10:53:00.000-07:00

Even though this picture doesn't really show it, the rainbow was amazing!

Day 44 - 9th July 2010

2010-07-13T10:52:00.000-07:00

I finally got around to making a card for my cousin's wedding, and I'm really proud of this. I'm so happy with how it turned out, except for one small detail... I forgot to leave room to sign who it's from. How am I gonna put four names on there without ruining the looks? :p

Day 43 - 8th July 2010

2010-07-13T10:49:00.000-07:00

I was so excited to try this. I'd seen the commercials on TV and it looked so tasty! Turned out to be the most disgusting iced coffee I've ever tasted. It was basically like drinking mud water... Yuck!

Day 42 - 7th July 2010

2010-07-13T10:47:00.000-07:00

The (not so) great view from my room at my place in the city. It was a beautiful day though, and documenting that was one of my main goals with this picture :p The sun was out, it was a nice temperature - we had one day of summer! ONE DAY! :D Too bad one day is not enough.

Day 41 - 6th July 2010

2010-07-13T10:44:00.000-07:00

The first strawberries I had this year. So tasty! I love strawberries <3

Day 40 - 5th July 2010

2010-07-13T10:42:00.000-07:00

I love this chocolate milk. I drank the whole thing in a day (1L) and I'm allergic to milk. Way to go me! Guess who felt ill afterwards..

Day 39 - 4th July 2010

2010-07-13T10:41:00.000-07:00

These are my tickets for the concert I was on, on Friday and Saturday. Great shows. Too bad no one ever checked the tickets. I could've gotten in for free.

Day 38 - 3rd July 2010

2010-07-05T04:28:00.000-07:00

I went to a Smokie concert and it was amazing! 18'C and sun while listening to great music... Can't be better, can it? Well... You could only hear the lyrics on a few songs, but I still enjoyed it a lot!

Day 37 - 2nd July 2010

2010-07-05T04:26:00.000-07:00

I went to see "Take the chance" with my sister and a cousin whom I haven't seen in two years. It was a lot of fun watching people struggle through an obstacle course in 5'C water!

Day 36 - 1st July 2010

2010-07-05T04:23:00.000-07:00

The girl I work with was home from pre-school and we spent a lot of time painting. Mine turned out like that. I haven't painted in ages. The swirly one is how I used to paint when I was her age (3) and the other one is... well... awful! :p I'm not very good at painting, that's for sure!

Day 35 - 30th June 2010

2010-07-05T04:20:00.000-07:00

I have to keep a list of all the hours I work in order to get paid, and this is what the list looks like. One week takes up one A4 page! So I'll be handing in 4 lists for caring for the kid and one list for house chores!

Day 34 - 29th June 2010

2010-07-05T04:19:00.000-07:00

I handed back the keys from old place and it felt amazing. I love knowing that I don't have to go back there ever again!

Day 33 - 28th June 2010

2010-07-05T04:17:00.000-07:00

The view from where I'm working this summer. Took this picture from her veranda. It must be great to have a playground just outside your front door when you have a three year old child!

Day 32 - 27th June 2010

2010-07-05T04:15:00.000-07:00

I was on my way from work and had to take this picture of the city and the bridge linking the island with the mainland. The weather was a whole lot nicer than it looks!

Day 31 - 26th June 2010

2010-07-05T04:13:00.000-07:00

My look for the day, except I pinned my bangs back before I left the apartment! The picture was resized by the blog, and that's why it looks slightly blurry.

Day 30 - 25th June 2010

2010-06-25T11:37:00.000-07:00

This is basically how I spent the day. A mocca with a double espresso and a great book! I finally finished reading Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Loved it!

Day 29 - 24th June 2010

2010-06-25T11:36:00.000-07:00

My messy desk... This is what happens when I'm only in for a few hours a day to relax for a while before going back to work.

Day 28 - 23rd June 2010

2010-06-25T11:25:00.000-07:00

The day's purchase. The orange notebook was on sale and I needed something to keep track of all the hours I'm working this month. The UK Cosmo was also on sale, and it's one of my favourite magazines, so I had to get it. I can't say I'm impressed with the jelly beans though. Yuck.

Day 27 - 22nd June 2010

2010-06-25T11:23:00.000-07:00

Snack time! Black coffee and mixed nuts are my favourite between lunch and dinner snack! This nut mix was not the best I've tasted though...

Day 26 - 21st June 2010

2010-06-25T11:21:00.000-07:00

The new, summer bus times started today, and I actually remembered picking up the route information! I always forget picking up those folders and it annoys the crap out of me when I'm in the city, having to wait thirty minutes for the bus...

Day 25 - 20th June 2010

2010-06-25T11:18:00.000-07:00

I got the calendar for the school year 2010/2011 in the mail and spent quite a while copying birthdays over from the old one. I need these kinds of calendar to keep track of everyone's birthdays and other important appointments etc...

Day 24 - 19th June 2010

2010-06-20T04:15:00.000-07:00

My sister and the marching band she's a part of was in the city this weekend, and I went to see them play on the street. My sister is the person in front, with a blurred out face (she didn't like the picture).

Day 23 - 18th June 2010

2010-06-20T04:13:00.000-07:00

Made this after arriving in the city. I'm quite happy with the result, especially considering this is only the fourth card I've made. It looks better in person though.

Day 22 - 17th June 2010

2010-06-17T06:28:00.000-07:00

Isn't he handsome? My grandparents are here to visit for a few days, and their dog is so freakin' cute.

Day 21 - 16th June 2010

2010-06-17T06:26:00.000-07:00

I have no idea why the quality turned out so bad after uploading... But I've had these two dolls for as long as I can remember, and I love them! They're so cute!

Day 20 - 15th June 2010

2010-06-17T06:24:00.000-07:00

I really loved the contrasts in the weather. Mum and I were out walking and it was going from sunny to raining...

Day 19 - 14th June 2010

2010-06-17T06:21:00.000-07:00

Raija fell into the mud while trying to jump across a whole my dad had made earlier and was insecure near the wholes a few days. This was two days after she fell in. She stuck to the car or house and looked really uncomfortable.

Day 18 - 13th June 2010

2010-06-17T06:19:00.000-07:00

Dad rented this "cute little thing" - as mum referred to it as - for the weekend. He's been digging to lead water away from our house and garage. My cousin is the one standing besides it. I blurred out their faces...

Day 17 - 12th June 2010

2010-06-13T03:17:00.000-07:00

My outfit/look for my cousin's 14th birthday party (family only). It was fun, but I ate a little too much cake!

P.S.: The picture came out a little blurry/too much sharpened when uploading... Not sure why. You can click here to see the picture how it was supposed to look.

Day 16 - 11th June 2010

2010-06-13T03:14:00.000-07:00

Got more shopping done while shopping with my sister. She was the one supposed to shop and I just accompany her... turned out I spent just about the same amount of money as her... I really needed new running shoes though, and summer shoes cause the sole on mine broke... and I really wanted some more card-making stuff <3

Day 15 - 10th June 2010

2010-06-13T03:11:00.000-07:00

This is my favourite chocolate. I ate nearly the whole pack alone. Yummy!

Day 14 - 9th June 2010

2010-06-09T12:05:00.000-07:00

Mum cleaned out her closet today, and I got a skirt she no longer fit. It's bright pink and I absolutely love it. I also got a floral dress I've been drooling over for some time.

Day 13 - 8th June 2010

2010-06-09T12:02:00.000-07:00

I love when this tree blossoms in spring/summertime. The flowers are so pretty and smells amazing! So I just had to try out the macro function on my camera on these.

Day 12 - 7th June 2010

2010-06-08T02:45:00.000-07:00

I went shopping with my mum while we were still in the city. I am in love with the shoes, but they are half a size too small. I'm hoping they'll feel better on once I've walked a lot in them. Everything I got is to complete my outfit/look for my cousin's wedding this summer. Love it.

Day 11 - 6th June 2010

2010-06-08T02:43:00.000-07:00

Mum and I drove to the city to move all my clothes etc. from my old place in the city, to the new one. I have my own bedroom, and share a bathroom, living room and kitchen with four other girls.

Day 10 - 5th June 2010

2010-06-08T02:41:00.000-07:00

I finally got around to cleaning my car, and that was really needed! It was so dusty, and I've never seen more sand on the floor in a car! Smart as I was, I hoovered the floor and forgot to put the mats back in before getting inside to clean the rest. Let's just say I had to re-do some of my work...

Day 9 - 4th June 2010

2010-06-05T02:29:00.000-07:00

It snowed! June 4th and it was snowing. Worst part is that it's somewhat normal here. It left the ground in a village closer to town all white. Where's the sun when you "need" it?

Day 8 - 3rd June 2010

2010-06-05T02:27:00.000-07:00

I was supposed to clean my car, but it started raining. So I drove my sister to practice and took this when I was on my way home. I love how green it's gotten the past few weeks. I'm sick of this constant rain now though...

Day 7 - 2nd June 2010

2010-06-02T14:29:00.000-07:00

I went to the nearest city with my mum today, and the only bag I brought home with me was far too big to carry around there. So I found this one in my closet. I forgot how much I love it. It's a handmade bag, made by a woman my grandma works with.

Day 6 - 1st June 2010

2010-06-01T07:07:00.000-07:00

I helped mum sort through old tablecloths, and boy did we find a whole of of ugly and weird ones that I cannot believe we've actually used. At least the dog seems to like them...

Day 5 - 31st May 2010

2010-06-01T07:05:00.000-07:00

I went through my mum's collection of buttons and found a few really nice ones that I'll be using for my cards... She had a lot of pretty ones, and it kinda made me wish I liked to knit.
