Sunday 25.10.2014 Nice nails

Hi!

Now I am at home again after nice trip. I will make a summary about Oslo, Norway and tips there and share some pictures you haven't seen yet. But today about nice nails.

Some weeks ago I promised to talk about nails. I'm pretty hopeless with this subject but I can get a lot inspiration when I see my friends awesome and beautiful nails. I have chewed my nails... Noh, always and still. Sometimes I make the decision to get longer nails and usually I can do it but then something happens, nails don't look good anymore. And that's it.

If I wanna get longer nails then nail hardener is must product. I don't know if it really makes my nails stronger but at least it tastes too bad so I don't wanna bite. And nailpolish is must as well because I don't bite nails with any topping.

Newest favourite product is O.P.I nailpolish that mum gave me from Hungary ( http://dontbeafraidyouwillwin.blogspot.fi/2014/10/tuesday-21102014-here-we-come-norway.html?m=0 ). It lasts longer and one layer is enought.

I tried to get nice nails and that's how it went...

That's where I started. Super short, blue and glitter.

About four days later, I guess. Dark and light green.

Pink caviar / salt nails ( http://dontbeafraidyouwillwin.blogspot.fi/2014/04/saturday-832014-what-makes-you-happy.html?m=0 )

About two weeks.

Gambian flag nails. My absolutely favourite if we talk about colorful nails, guess why? But usually I prefer not-so-colorful.

Where we go there we ended up too. Blue but no short!

And then something happened... Maybe one day I will learn this!

Do you like take care of your nails and make them beautiful?

Nice nail,

Friday 24.10.2014 Oslo, day three

Hello!

I forgot to share these four meal pictures yesterday. Like I have told it's pretty difficult to find suitable restaurant so yesterday we found ourselves on pub called Scotsman. Food was nice but it was quite weird place, it was Brittish style pub not family restaurant.

And today pictures...

Holmenkollen ski jump tower and ski museum.

Holmenkollen ski jump tower's history and development.

T-Rex! Natural history museum.

Edvard Munch museum.

"Scream", the most famous painting by Munch.

I knew that artists are somehow crazy, like Vincent van Gogh last summer in Amsterdam, but Much was even more crazy and this painting is just what you can guess, watch it!

Some animals and Munch's other paintings.

Meal on Hard Rock Cafe Oslo.

Today was the best day in Oslo. If you are coming you should visit all those places we visited today.

Thursday 23.10.2014 Oslo, day two

Hi guys!

Fjällräven shop and our hotel Oslo Vandrerhjem Central

Yesterday's falafels and today's breakfast

Second day in Oslo, lot of new experiences, many places and weather is rainy.

I'm not falled in love this city but I think so we are travelling out if the tourist season so on summer time this city might be better. Oslo is the capital of Norway but this city seems pretty quiet and lazy if I think about other capitals, like Ansterdam, Lisboa or Helsinki, where I have visited. In the evening it's more calm but I have to say that in the evening I prefer this city. Maybe it doesn't sound so clever but it's true because in the evenings this weird hassle is gone. One bad thing is that finding restaurant for us seems to be impossible! Like I told you yesterday Norway is expencive country and here you can find some expencive restaurants. And a lot of kebab places! I have to say that kebab places are much better here than in Finland. You can take normal kebab or chicken or even vegetable food with french fries or rice and choose what kind of salad and sauce you want. But check with pictures what I have seen today.

After breakfast to the bus station. Bus number 30 to the beautiful museum area.

Kon-Tiki museum ( http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kon-Tiki ) ( http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kon-Tiki_Museum )

Good night, see you tomorrow!

Wednesday 22.10.2014 Oslo, day one

Rainy greetings from Oslo!

Like I told you yesterday we started our trip pretty early on the morning. Woke up 5pm, took dog to grandad's place and drove to Helsinki-Vantaa airport. Our flight to Oslo left quarter past twelve Finnish time and reached Oslo about one hour later. Then we took train and walked throught rainy Oslo to hotel. There we left our luggages and walked around city, found lot of shops and enought restaurants.

What I can tell about this city now? It's very international so you can see people from many countries and races. Oslo is surprisingly clean as well, no trash, bottles, cans,... And language here! You know I don't like Swedish that much... But Norwegian is so much like Swedish and they understand if we speak in Swedish. Now I don't know is it better speak in English or in Swedish. Norway is a lot like Finland and when our flight arrived I said that it seems like we came home. Now it's pretty rainy and cold but. Norway is more expencive than Finland, 100 Norwegian crown is about 12€.

Lunch at thai-restaurant

City of Oslo

Now it's time to try to find food but see you tomorrow after I have seen more this city.

Tuesday 21.10.2014 Here we come Norway!

Hello!

Mum came home last night from Hungary. There are her souvenirs for me. O.P.I nail polish and bracelet.

Today I planned to go to gym with my friend but she was sick so I walked a long time with our dog at forest. And almost got heart attack because I listened music and somebody ran behind me and over. U know that feeling? And usually u are singing the song you are listening as well, right? I had one driving lesson as well. Or it's always part of my "training period". Driving teacher just check how is driving now about two months after my birthday. After lesson I went to shop and bought new sport back to school because I lost last one. You know I love Africa so I was really happy that shop donate 0,80 euros to Nenäpäivä. Meaning of Nenäpäivä is helping poor kids and we have it on 7th of November, you will hear more then.

In the evening I just walk with dog, packed and packed...

Tomorrow I am going to Norway, woop woop! Wake up 5am and go to Helsinki where we start our flight to Oslo, the capital of Norway. And I will came back to Helsinki about 11pm on Saturday. I'm so exciting! And I hope I can post some pictures to you during my trip like I did when I visited in Holland, Amsterdam.

Now good night, tomorrow have to wake up early and start driving.

Monday 20.10.2014 Rest of the week and new started

Hello guys!

Today is the first day of our autumn break. Do you have a holiday on this week? Do you have some plans what you wanna and gonna do during it?

What have happened after last post on Wednesday? On Thursday after school I wanted to go to gym with my friend but there was a lesson so we couldn't. Our gym is at school so if there is school lessons we can't use it. Noh it wasn't nice but we thought to go on Friday and in the evening I had dancing lesson. We had so much fun because we tested some things what we could do on dancing school's Christmas show. Next week I am not going to dancing lesson because I have holiday and I won't be at home on Thursday.

On Friday I went to school later but oh no! I was just wearing my jeans and going to school and then this happened...

My only jeans' butt

At school teachers were nice and they didn't give homework for a holiday. Haha, that sounds like at lower basic school! After school I went to gym with my friend and got a good training. In the evening I met another friend if mine and we went to bar and met other friend there. It was nice to meet those guys again but I had to go home "early" (2am) because on Saturday morning I had timetable. Any way we all left same time because staff liked that one of our friend should go home... When I reach to home mum was leaving. Just now she is in Hungary in city called Budapest with her sister and father.

Friday evening's outfit

On Saturday morning I went to Rauma with daddy and brother to buy new jeans for me. I hate trying to find jeans so when I found ok pair from KappAhl I wanted to leave and quickly please. We drove a bit around the city (good training for me), took a meal and went to home. After city trip me, daddy and Mini went to forest to orienteering. In the evening I again went to meet one of my friend and we went to listen an artist called Uniikki. Again late at home but luckily it's holiday!

Saturday evening's outfit

Uniikki

Yesterday was so lazy day. The greatest achievement was going to library to take a book for our trip. But almost whole day I watched movies, read blogs and Facebook and walked with a dog twice as well.

WTF??? This is possible only if mum is somewhere else...

Going to library...

Today I went to Huittinen with daddy and brother because daddy had a car maintenance and I drove. During they checked our car we checked their city. With full of empty, little stores! I can't understand how those stores survive?! When we came back to home I went for a little running and legs were ok, I am sooo happy. Today I wanna watch some movie and went to bed early, have to sleep...

Tomorrow I will go to gym with my friend, pack my luggage and I have one driving lesson.

Wednesday 15.10.2014 Keep calm and...

Hello everybody!

How your week has started?

I have finally got more sport in my life and I am really happy about it. Like you have read before, I have had a lot problems with legs, especially with calves. Now I have runned a few times without that bad pain. But, now have to keep calm and take care that problems don't come back.

I have had problems about 2 years so pretty long time and I really really hope that problems don't make stupid comebacks. On last running season, year 2013, I started competitions much later than on other years and much later than I was planned. Any way I runned my new personal best and runned many good competitions. But on this season, 2014, I haven't run any competitions because I couldn't train and run enought. I hope and I will do my best that next season will be better!

But how have sport and everything been during this week?

On Monday morning I had two sport lessons at school, first 1500 meters running test and second Finnish baseball. I got grade 9 from the test. It's okay but I have always got 10 but now this run was my best. What I am happy about is that I did my best, legs didn't hurt so the reason why I didn't get 10 was just my condition and reason for worse condition is too less training. So I have to keep calm and keep running!

On English lesson I had a little presentation about the news. Headline was "First womb-transplant baby born". You can check it on BBC page ( http://www.bbc.com/news/health-29485996 ). After school I had two aerobic lessons.

In the evening I called to honey's cousin and talked about travelling between Finland and the Gambia. Now I have to understand that I am not going to the Gambia this Christmas and New Year because Tjäreborg doesn't make package travels anymore because there isn't enought passengers, msybe because they are afraid about Ebola. And it is so damn stupid! I will travel to the Gambia as soon as possible to meet all those lovely people I have met and who I will meet next time. I love the Gambia! But now I have to keep calm and wait, they said so.

On Tuesday I had pretty normal day at school, on sport lesson we played football and after school I had Finnish test where I wrote three pages shit. Yep... After test I went to home, cooked, met relatives and Skype with honey. He has malary (damn, shit, fuck, noooo!!!)! "Keep calm I will be fine", he said. "Keep calm... And how to hell?!", I asked not so calm! You should read about malary and maybe you can understand as well what I mean ( http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malaria ).

Today I went to school 10.30 so 2 hours later than usual. My first two lessons were history where our teacher went to home because he had flu and left us to study without teacher. WTF if you ask me! Last 2 lessons I had sport, orienteering, and after lessons I continued with other group so I had 4 lessons and about 2 hours orienteering. My mum is our sport teacher so that's why I can do so.

Now it's time to check some school stuffs before sauna. Have a nice week!

Sunday 12.10.2014 Weekend

Hi!

This week was pretty normal with school, some sport and time with friends. I was thinking to tell you about my weekend with picture.

On Saturday we went to meet and help grandparents and in the evening I spend time with my friend.

We collected pretty much trashs.

Yea... I am 18 but we found it and...

Mini had to stay inside when we worked outside. When we were ready she didn't understand door was open.

Grandma asked me to fix some clothes.

Fakir!

Oh no! Christmas is already coming. The fact is that I love christmas but because it seems that I have to stay here in Finland this christmas as well I am not waiting it comes. I hoped (and still hope) that I could spend christmas and new year in the Gambia so I won't be happy spending it in Finland.
