Wedding gift no. 6: Baby blanket

This the last one :D A baby blanket with a bunny head ^^

derpy eyes.

I know it looks like the head isn't in the centre, but it is! :D

I don't have any instructions for this, I "invented" the instructions by myself :D At first I just made a big granny square. The head is just a ball, and the ears are small "tubes" :D Me so creative \o/ The yarn is 100% acryl, the same yarn as I used in the onesie I posted earlier. The eyes are made of felt, and the mouth is sewn with pink yarn. 

I must say that I really love this one :D I LOVE animal themed baby blankets, and I'm crazy about bunnies. Maybe I'm gonna make one for myself, lol XD

We Heart It -challenge

Yayy! I got a challenge! From a lovely friend of mine, Liisa, Thank you! *-* 

The idea of the challenge is to answer 10 questions by using pictures from a website called We Heart It. The challenge took a loooong time to make, mostly because the website was a real pain in the ass XDD It was lagging all the time, and sometimes it was a bit hard to find things that I like here :D But I managed! Here it is:

1. The hair of your dreams

 

Long and silver with a liiiiitle bit of purple in it *_____* Unfortunately, I don't think I will ever get my hair to be like that..... I have a feeling that it will work only with people who have naturally blonde hair ;__; My own haircolor is so dark and it hassome red pigment in it so pfffffffff......

2. A city of your dreams

London. I have been there once and I fell in love with it completely. It's so beautiful and people are amazing there. If I would move abroad, I think I would move there.

3. The apartment of your dreams

pffffffffff, if I had money like garbage, I wouldn't buy myself an apartment, I would buy a fucking mansion. For real. Or build one :D But I do prefer very old mansions, so I believe I would just renovate one <3 mmmmm.... 

4. Your favourite clothes

 

 mmm.. Alternative fashion <3 I'm still very much in love with gothic and other alternative styles, but I myself prefer wearing jeans and T-shirts nowadays :D I have noticed that I don't wear skirts so much anymore, and fluffy skirts I don't wear at all, or very seldom. I still wear corsets though, and I love dresses! *-* But I'm still making sure that my clothes stand out from the crowd and are from alternative clothing brands!

5. What you like to do on your freetime

MEMES <3

SLEEP <3

BEING ANTISOCIAL.

DRINKING.

6. Things you'd like to own

Money. Shitloads of it.

A proper computer that would actually work...

 

7. A person you would like to look like

Rose Shock. She's so fucking gorgeous and stunning and beautiful and skjhsöhgsfjhghlägfh. AND her make-up skills are beyond amazing... If you haven't heard of her yet, you really should check out her blog.

 

8. The man of your dreams

80's rocker with long hair and tight jeans. Just look at Bret Michaels in this one......... Holyfuckingshit. <3 Why does my boyfriend have to hate 80's rock... WHY ;___; 

9. You as a cartoon character

 

The neurotic Alice. Ok, it's not really a cartoon character, it's a video game character, but oh well... When I was playing Alice: Madness Returns, I could relate to her completely... <3 She's trying her best to be sane and to get better, but her mind is still in million pieces. I'm living in my own Wonderland myself sometimes... 

10. Random picture 

<3 So cute. My mood has been a bit dark lately, so I searched pictures with a word "grotesque". mmm, I love grotesque things <3

I would like to challenge the following people:

Saku <3

ЯOi - ☆

Vivian

Vania

Mirppuli <3

Koala 

And anyone who wants to give this challenge a try!! ^^

Another overly cute key-chain :D

XD I'm drowning in key-chains!! Look what I got this time! :DDD

I got this one from my boyfriend's mother :D Thank you, Asta! *-* I love it!! And!! It's not just a key-chain, it is also...

A PEZ-DISPENSER!!! 8DDD <3 hahahahaah, I love Pez, and I have many Hello-Kitty Pez-dispensers, but not a soft one *___* This one is so lovely that I removed two of my other key-chains so I could use this one :D

heeeheeeeee! ^^ Lol, I have more key-chains than I have keys XD But they're all so nice!! .___.


hmmm, what else is new? Nothing much. I went to see my baby girls on Thursday, I had missed them so much ;;____;; They had not forgotten about me <3 When we took them outside, Ada was sitting on my lap almost all the time <3 Adele was also hiding inside my shirt every now and then :DD Also, my boyfriend visited me last weekend. It was nice <3 Except that I didn't sleep well at all 'cos my bed is too small for two people and I get agitated if someone is sleeping very close to me, even if it's my own bf XDD I NEED MY SPACE! @___@

On Saturday I went to sell some clothes to a rock N roll flea market! I have so many emo clothes that I don't wear anymore so I thought that this would be a good way to get rid of them. Well... it wasn't XD I only sold two CDs, one skirt and one shirt. The people there were mostly metal heads or 80's inspired rockers, so they didn't find any use for my clothes. But it's ok, I really enjoyed being there!! I just love selling clothes and advising people with them *-* Also, the flea market was open only for three hours, so maybe I could have sold more clothes if it had been open for the whole day. I earned 8€ !! XDDD epic. Actually, I earned 13€ but the selling table cost 5€ :D

After the flea market, me and my boyfriend went to Amarillo to eat. I just love that restaurant so much *___* Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures of the foods 'cos I was so goddamn hungry I just dig straight in XD But trust me, it was good. Whiskey corn for starters, garlic chicken with red wine sauce for main course, and nut-chocolate cake with ice cream for dessert <3 great, now I'm lusting for Amarillo's food again... .___.

Also, I've shopped again! oops :D I bought my bridesmaid-dress for my sister's wedding! I'm not gonna show it to you yet 'cos it haven't arrived. I ordered it from eBay, I hope they will ship me the right and fitting dress :DD I have always had good experiences with shopping on eBay, but you never know :DD We will see. Today I also bought a shitload of barbells for my tongue!!  I can't wait to get rid of this original barbell, it's so long @__@ It bothers me, big time. Argh. 

The end of Kendo

I have been thinking about this for a while, and I have come to the conclusion that I will stop doing kendo. Maybe I will continue it in the future, maybe I won't. But right now, I just can't do it anymore.

It's not the sport. Kendo is a very interesting sport and I did enjoy it. But there are other things that just make me so pissed off every single time I have gone to practise, and that is not nice. There are a few main reasons why I decided to stop practising kendo...

1. I don't feel comfortable with our kendo-group in Jyväskylä. 

I'm on a totally different level with the people I'm practising with, and I really don't have good friends there. It's very unmotivating to go to practise alone, I need someone to go with (or at least I thought so...). I get along with the people but... I just don't get the connection that I would like to get with them.

My boyfriend's kendo-goup is totally the opposite! The people there are GREAT, they are good friends with each other and the practising is fun and laid back. Ok, the practise itself is tough and deadly but you know what I mean... The atmosphere is laid back :D Everytime I practised with them, or just watched them practise, we went after kendo in some bar and had a great time. Last Friday, for example, was AWESOME. My kendo group hasn't gone after kendo in months.... it sucks.

2. Money.

Our kendo association in Jyväskylä is so. fucking. EXPENSIVE. My boyfriend's association is so much cheaper. Also, the teaching methods are much better in Seinäjoki than in Jyväskylä... I don't even remember when our teacher has taught us anything, or even taken part in practise!!! (Ok I haven't practised in Jyväskylä in a month so I don't know if he's practising/teaching again.) It makes me so pissed off that I have to pay a shitload of euros in one year when the teaching methods are not even that great... Also, I'm still very bitter about the Sensei's visit. We had to pay extra for that, even though the annual fees are high. Seinäjoki's association is much cheaper and they could still pay for the Sensei's costs... hmmm. I just wonder where all our money goes...

3. My condition

To be honest, I'm not that healthy atm. I have lost weight, again... It's not good. Last time I checked I weigh 46kg... I'm 171cm tall. It's absolutely terrible. And I feel like an idiot because a week ago I would have had an appointment with a dietician, that I had been waiting for two months because of the enormous queue. What happened? I FORGOT TO GO. I have no fucking clue what I'm going to do now... I feel so embarrassed to call to the nurse and ask for a new appointment 'cos of my own stupidity... Oh well, I have to do it.

AYWAY. Because of my weight problems, I'm very tired all the time. I'm not kidding when I say that I'm awake for 8-9 hours a day, and sleep the rest 15 hours... It should be the opposite. I just can't help it. I can be awake only about 3 hours at the time, then I need a nap. Everything feels so heavy and hard, even though it isn't. It sucks balls, I tell you. My boyfriend is losing his nerves every time I take a nap. I just can't stay awake, and it does make me sad.

I made the BMI test again. It's a test that tells you if you have a depression or not. I got 24 points, which means a medium depression. I have had higher scores, so it's not that bad, but it sucks anyway. 0-10 points means no depression, 11-19 means mild depression, 20-29 points means medium depression and 30+ is a difficult depression.

4. The motivation. Ruined by the things above.

I really thought that I didn't want to do kendo because I have no good friends to do it with here, and I really need someone to force me to go to the practise. On Friday when I went to the practise with my boyfriend, I realised that it was not it. I just don't have the motivation anymore... I could barely do the 30 minutes' warm up, and then I stopped. There were only three words in my mind while practising: Fuck this shit. I felt nauseous and wanted to stop. I just went to the dressing room and changed normal clothes. I was so fed up. And at the same time I was very angry at myself.

Lovely weekend with lovely people

I had such a nice weekend *___* <3 Two of my very good friends, Saku and Miso, came to visit me for the weekend! It meant so much to me, because I don't get visitors that often, it's usually me who visits people. So it was very nice for a change ^^ And it meant a lot for me expecially because Saku is a person who doesn't like to leave his house at all XD But he came to visit meeee <3 yay!

They arrived pretty late on Friday, about 10pm, so we didn't do much on Friday :D Just watched some TV and played with my ratty-girls ^^ There was this movie on TV that sounded very interesting so I wanted to watch it, but we all fell asleep in the middle of the movie XDDD

On Saturday, we went to the city centre to "shopping". Neither of us had any money for that XD I did see sooo many lovely clothes but I couldn't afford them ;__; boohoo. After we had checked the clothing shops etc, and eaten in McDonald's we went to the super market and liquor store :D We planned to make tortillas and chocolate cupcakes *-* omnomnom.

When we got home, Miso was a lovely honeyboo and washed my dishes *______* Everything was so tidy and nice <3 ....for the next 30 minutes. Then we started cooking and baking XDDD Now the mess is the same as in the beginning...

I did help him! XD

This is my face when I look at my closets and find random shit that shouldn't be there XD

When Miso was done, we made the tortillas, they were goooood <3 nomnom. Unfortunately we forgot to take pictures of those.. But meh, I think you guys know what tortillas look like? :DD After that, we started baking. Everything went very well while making the dough, but when the cupcakes came out from the oven.... They had totally failed ;;________;;!!! They became flat, and were hollow! Fuck that shit, I will never use that recipe again....... We tried to make them look nice with frosting but it didn't really help 'cos we didn't have enough frosting XDDDDDD so uh... yeah. We failed the cupcakes.

nomnom dough!

One of our very few pretty cupcakes XD The rest were just.... retarded.

The cupcake episode was so stressful that we decided to start drinking after that. Lol :D We had a very nice evening! <3

Ever since I saw this Rage Comics -themed drinking game I fell deeply in love with it! Unfortunately, I don't own a printer so I haven't been able to play it with my friends. But now, me, Miso and Saku put our goofy heads together and had a great idea! We cut some pieces of different colored cardboards and put some Blu Tack behind them. Saku had dice in his cell phone so TA-DAH! We were able to play it on my computer screen XDDD We so genius <3

I was supposed to tell a joke but I couldn't remember any so I just took one of my 53795 joke books and read it :D

My pink drink! *-* UFO-Shot and sparkly water. mmmmmmmm...

Saguuuuu <3

hurrrdurrrr

We realized that we didn't have a picture of us three, so now we took one! ^^ <3 Saku's fake smile is so pwettyyyyyy!

We so serious.

Or not XD

hurrdurrrr part 2 :D

ERMAHGERD A SHAMPAAAAAAAHHHHHNNNGGGHH

Something was very interesting but I have no idea what XDDD

Hahaha, we had so much fun XDD <3 Miso passed out at 1am or something. The poor thing talks while he sleeps so we kinda teased him a bit XDDD It was so hilarious. Me and Saku stayed up until 3 or 4am, talking about all kinds of things. Mainly about sex :DDD Damn, he made me realize that I'm a very conservative and strict person when it comes to sex O__O I'm gonna save you guys from the details though XDDD

I'm gonna see these two lovely oddballs again in two weeks, Can't wait!! <3

100 Day Picture Challenge - Day 34

Day 34 - A picture of your favourite morning 

heheee, 1/3 passed! 2/3 to go! Ok, let's get to the point.

lol, me so pretty.

Those mornings when you can sleep as long as you want because you have no plans at all <3 This morning would have been perfect if I wasn't sick >___<

100 Day Picture Challenge - Day 28

Day 28 - A picture of your favourite place in the world

A BED.

I loooove sleeping and laying in a soft bed under a soft and warm blanket *___*  And usually when I have a day off and I have no plans I most likely do so :DD I may take two naps during the day, and that's not so good 'cos I usually sleep about 2 hours at a time, oops. :D My bf loses his nerves sometimes 'cos I like to sleep so much XD But come on, it's so nice *-* Lol, he even said to me once "You sleep more than a fucking baby!!!" 

Oh well, mostly it's not because I'm lazy. Lol, sometimes it is, but it's mostly 'cos of my bad health. Even though I do feel better, thanks to my medication, I still have the exhaustion inside me that doesn't go away >___< Especially this spring 'cos I've been sick A LOT X__X I do feel  energetic sometimes and I can do a lot of things, but when I take a break, I notice that I'm VERY exhausted, sometimes I feel dizzy even. So yeah, I'm a very tired person :< It may also be because of my diet >__< I don't eat healthy at all and I'm very aware that I don't get all the vitamins I should :D I know I should so something about it but.... meh ;__; Healthy food tastes bad!!! >8(

Chapter 14: Flea market and Hunger Games

Taru wanted to go to a flea market today and I decided to go with her. My throat is still very sore, but I didn't let it bother me. I also never go to flea markets alone, I find them pretty disgusting... But sometimes if someone asks me to join them I go and usually find something as well, as I did today! 

The first item I found, was pretty much an impulse purchase :DDD a mouse/rat plushie. I just had to get it, it's so cute! I love plushies... and it was only 1€ :D I have to wash it though... Because, well, flea market >___<

The other item I found was a DVD, Return of the Killer Tomatoes. I have heard that it's funny, so I couldn't resist buying it :D It was 3€. Too bad I haven't seen the first one, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. booo.

After the flea market we went to the movies. We saw The Hunger Games. I liked it! The characters and the era of the story were very interesting! It was a bit predictable though, and in my opinion it could have been more violent :D But it was a good movie anyway. 

The lead actress, Jennifer Lawrence, was ok in her role, but I noticed that she was a lot like Kristen Stewart :DDD She didn't smile that much, and when she did, it wasn't very natural. And the character was a lot like Bella Swan as well. Oh well, it didn't bother me that much. She is prettyyyyy *-*

I really liked Effie Trinket, played by Elisabeth Banks. The character was very amusing and I absolutely LOVED her outfits @___@ <3 

I can has that dress???? 

When we got home, I was so tired I fell asleep -___-;; Thank god I only slept for an hour, usually my naps are three hours long... I was sooo sleepy when I woke up but then my father called me so I woke up better :D 

Later in the evening me and Taru played a game called Draw and guess, it's so much fun!! :DDD ....especially when you can't draw shit XDDD The idea of the game is to see a word in a card and draw it, and the players have to guess it. 

some of our lovely drawings XD
