Small post

A week has passed again without any new post, sorry for that. I've been very busy and also the day I decided to post the "what's in your bag" -post, I realized that my beloved Tazmanian devil dog Gekko had broken my new Canon. So maybe the next pic I will post after fixing my camera will be about my new bull terrier fur gloves... They really say you can't live without dogs huh? Makes you think...
Nah, Gekko is my darling. Causes more grey hair on my head than it's even legal, ashames me in public by farting in bus, whining and jumping to greet people when he shouldn't but still is the loveliest dog in my life. My little monkey child.Ps. Can someone tell me why some of the pics I put here can be clicked larger and some can't?

Saturday

Weekend! What are you going to do in this sunny (hope it's as sunny as it's here where every you are) weekend?

I sure know what I'm gonna do. LOTS of hooping I can tell you! Got my very first custom made hoop delivered to me yesterday. Silvery prisma tape with yellow and pink stripes. *love*
It's so much more fun to hoop with a real big and heavy hoop than those toy hoops I bought from toystore a while ago.
Strarted practising yesterday evening and spent hour and a half hooping and learning all the basics from stalling the hoop to spinning in both ways and hooping in both ways and moving a bit. Now my hips and lovehandles are sore and bruised and I love it! ♥So this weekend will be full of hooping and listening to CSS - Donkey album. Have a great weekend!

Not Cool, Dude!

Bumped into these hilarious callout cards by thatsnotcool.com. Not so hilarious subject, but this is what it's all about:

"Your cell phone, IM, and social networks are all a digital extension of who you are. When someone you're with pressures you or disrespects you in those places, that's not cool."
Many (or all?) of the cards are ment for couples, but I can find many of them also suitable for some of my ex-friends. Anyways, great finds, I had a blast reading these! :D

London calling

Union Jack
I've always loved London, but lately there has been bit more severe Britain fever sneaking up on me. It all started, when I was shopping some office supplies for my work from book store and while being there just quickly checked if there was anything intresting in the interior book shelves.
And there was, New London Style.

That strange Union Jack wall rug or what ever it's called appealed to me for some unknown reason. Since buying that book, I have been very into all kinds of Union Jack themed things. It's actually very strange, as I a) don't like flags b) don't like blue c) don't like red and d) dislike most of wall rugs I've ever seen.

I'd love to get these Converse All Stars sneakers with Union Jack on them, but sadly the store I have one unused gift certificate left, don't have them in my size.

In reality, I think this has to have something to do with my unbearable desire to travel. I've been in London for few times and love the city. But I would also be very happy to travel anywhere else too.

HEY! Almost forgot!! There's a competition in the Cool Cupcake blog (sorry, it's in finnish)! Go check it out and try if you are one of the lucky ones winning the cute prices!

Quick update

It's almost the end of February and my challenge. This week hasn't gone as planned and I have had serious difficulties waking up in the mornings. Apparently the 8:00 is too much for me, so I plan to continue my challenge, go back a bit and set the 8:30 to my new waking up time. Maybe use that for few weeks and then try the 8:00 again and hope for better (and permanent!!) result.


It's a lovely and sunny day today, so I'm keeping this short and go and try to be bit more productive than I've been in last couple of days.
I'll post more later this week!

Hot kiddo

A talented young girl I saw for the first time at MTV reality tv-serie My Super Sweet 16. It's already an old episode, but there was re-run in Finnish MTV last weekend so I decided to mention Teyana Taylor in my blog this week.I liked how she didn't want a car, but a BMX bike (but ended up getting a customized lowrider bike, even better!!!). She also had a cool theme in her party, old school 80's sketeboard party. She got a dress made by Heatherette and it was the coolest dress I have ever seen. Bright, multi-colored pink dress with huge amount of small decorations. To complete the look, she bought really bright pair of Nike sneakers.

She entered her party in a Barbie/doll box carried by half naked guys and ended her performance with some pro dancing.

Altogether, she is pretty talented and not just in dancing but also singing and rapping. I'm not so into rap, so my intrest in her lies in her great sense of style. She wears lots of bright colours and can handle both over-girly and tomboyish styles.

Here is the same Heatherette dress in catwalk.
