Ihmemies Putro ja Uusivirta

Today I decided not to go to school and do some project filming in city. I walked girlsto station and started to wander around. I couldnt film so much because morning was very rainy buti took couple footages. Soon girls called me and we met again in station and started to wander together. Our mission was to find a. Place to getcoffee from without long queue. And b. We wanted to find this one small "mall" where were "alternative" stores and tattoo/piercing places. We found both from same area. Also some people from some kind of students-to-find-interesting-activities-and-jobs place and took us to meet some people from different clubs and schools. It was great because we met a man from graffiti club. He and probably one of his student made our names in graffiti style. Also I told aboutthis documentary project to him and he got excited and said that if I want interview some artists etc. I could mail to him to address from flayer. So I think that it would be great for this street art documentary.
I decided to try what great is with Fiji water and couldn't taste it so is it just because of advertisement?
Today came out two my favorite Finnish artist's albums 1. Olavi Uusivirta - Ikuiset Lapset (my vinyl with signature came and waits me in home till I arrive) and 2. Samuli Putro - Taitekohdassa. 
Do you have some ideas for next post from here?

Sleepy hollow and the chocolate factory

Today i started my day with filming. Me and our teacher went to city but i realized that the camera doesn't work. NOO! Well, then I had to go back to school. Alone.
School day was long this time and i didin't have cash to buy any lunch soi was so hungry after my class. We took together train to city and our teacher took us to dinner because she's leaving on the next morning. We went to Italian restaurant where I ate pasta with chicken and mushrooms. We also went to pick up snacks from grocery store. They sell Wonka chocolate and Bounty milk etc. Yum!

daisies and tea

Today we went by ourselves to school. I heard there what my project will be. I have to film Birmingham and it's famous culture. Too bad that today i was too tired to start after school when went to city centre to see this huge mall we saw yesterday. We checked some shops and i found 3pair of socks from New Look and a thermos mug, and my little pony socks, jeans and a top from primark (i needed new jeans).
We also found this huge bull statue made of jelly beans and bought some doughnuts <3 p="">

First day in Birmingham

Actually we arrived last night but today we really saw where we are. At first we weren't sure how this day turns out but in the end we had so much fun with so great group of people. Last pics are from our 'home' street :----D looks tempting?
But now we saw a little bit of this city and found great stores (forever 21, topshop etc)
But great day in the end and got new friends!
