Mărțișor

Kaksi viikkoa vanhempien luona tuli eilen päätökseen, kun lauantaina vietettiin ukin hautajaisia ja koko perhe oli koolla. Saimme sunnuntaina kyydin kotiin siskolta ja siskon mieheltä ja otimme loppumatkaksi taksin.
Kotona odotti Vallun isä ja vaihdoimme pikaisesti kuulumisia ennen nukkumaan menoa. Vallun äiti mainitsi viime kuussa puhelimessa, että Romaniassa vietetään Mărțișor - nimistä juhlapyhää Maaliskuun ensimmäinen päivä ja silloin on tapana antaa lahjoja ja että hän lähettää jotain minulle, mutta en keksinyt mitä.
No, eilen sitten sain pienen punaisen laatikon, joka oli täynnä erilaisia koruja. Mikä kaikkia koruja yhdisti, oli puna-valkea lanka. Laatikon mukana tuli kirje Vallun äidiltä ja hän kertoi tästä juhlasta. Ihmiset antavat toisilleen koruja, ei kaikille, vaan ainoastaan tärkeille ihmisille.
Puna-valkea lanka edustaa hyvää onnea ja taloudellista onnea.

Sain myös viime viikolla topin, jonka tilasin lookhuman.com - sivustolta ja olen niin tyytyväinen tähän. Aion pian tilata uusiksi jotain minulle ja ystävälle. Topissa on Tardis ja alla lukee "I TRAIN TO KEEP UP WITH THE DOCTOR". Iskä tajusi topin heti, koska meillä oli tapana katsoa Doctor Who:ta telkkarista.

Äiti ja iskä oli löytäneet aivan ihanan kirjoituspöydän ukin aitasta ja nyt olen aivan rakastunut siihen. Onneksi sain heidät jättämään pöydän sisälle, ettei se vain menisi kosteudessa pilalle.

Tänään kävin salilla ja vietän loppupäivän semi rennosti Meedio - sarjan parissa ja teen päivälliseksi tummaa riisiä ja kanaa :--)

A month of shopping

Now, let's have a hot cup of tea (or mocha, your choice) and think about this past month. I landed back to Finland on Sunday and spent two holiday days in Helsinki with my friend and I also met my sister for a long while.
Now I'm at home and I sorta feel like having post-travel-depression. I've spent whole month around people all the time and now suddenly I sit alone in the dark room. That's the first problem I must pass, I used to love spending a lot of time alone and suddenly it's a massive problem.
Also I feel blank right now; what now? what's next? This was the big trip I waited? What now? In shower today I got feeling that the trip never happened and it's still coming.
No Elisa, it's over.

Okay, now something happier.
I opened my suitcase and put everything I've bought for myself to one pile and took a picture of it. First I thought that I make post about those here, but maybe I just show some of them and tell something of those things.

Skittles
I fell for Skittles in UK, I bought first a small bag of Crazy Sour Skittles and then immediately I was sold.

Harry Potter stuff
I bought a lot of Harry Potter stuff for Mira so I needed something for myself too. I found this top from Camden Town and Hogwarts top came to Primark after couple weeks.

Treats
In UK we ate a lot of Tesco's 'meal deals' which included sandwiches or pasta salad, small bag of chips and a drink. I tried these cool looking chips and in some weird way I liked them a lot. Lilac bag is pickled onion and yellow bag is roast beef.
Cadbury is chocolate factory in Birmingham so I want to try their chocolate (because no chocolate has won Fazer). And M&S had these cute Where's Wally - chocolates.

Television shows
I have now all Sherlock seasons on my shelf and I decided before this trip that I try to find Vicious DVD. Merlin was spontaneous need. I love Merlin and especially the first season is so gold. Of course there was so many other shows too like Miranda, Doctor Who, Adventure Time, Supernatural and even Gimme Gimme Gimme.

Jewels
I didin't buy a lot of jewels like I usually do. I bought from Claire's earrings for me and for my friend. I bought her doughnut earrings and for myself these skulls. In airport I went to Accessories store and found immediately this cute anklet. Oh summer, I wait for you!

Doctor Who
Also as a big Doctor Who fan I bought some gems. I bought sonic screwdriver key chain for my old work friend. For myself I found perfect Doctor Who poster (from episode where Vincent Van Gogh painted this and because I admire Van Gogh's paintings and this was so like his real style) in sale there was Dalek key chain and then my first Doctor Who item, the magazine.

Tea lover
My school gal wanted this Twinings 'mango & strawberry' tea and when I found it I had to buy same for myself too and next to it was this other delicious name 'cherry & cinnamon'. I bet those both are amazeballs.

Also I bought Adventure Time cup. I had hard decision of what kind of mug I buy. Long while I was so sure about Princess Bubblegum but then I decided to take this where are also Princess Bubblegum but also Jake, Finn and Lady Rainicorn.
Also you can see that my fab Adventure Time dress arrived. It's so globbing amazing.

Bloody marvelous British fest!

Yesterday was a great night.
My day started with making a cake for Eva and must say, this was my first time I made cake all by myself. When that was done I went to meet Eva and we went together to store and came here to prepare everything for party evening. Thank god I didin't put so much effort so create all food like I've done last times. It makes me over stressed and takes too much time. We had pizza, snacks and we made cupcakes.

We surprised Eva with cake and birthday song together and gave her our cool gift we made to her, Eva barbie doll called 'Red Rida In Da Hood'

Theme was British pop culture and there was nice characters in my party; Harry Potter, Wendy Darling, John Watson, River Song, Spice Girls fan from 90's and stereotypical indie rock star. I was Amy Pond from Doctor Who.

Thanks to all for making awesome party! And for so nice gifts (Satu gave me cute gin bottle and tea).

I had a boring Friday as you remember, I baked cookies and complained. Well, I spent my evening better while drinking two glasses red wine and watched Doctor Who. Even I hate how Moffat make me rip my heart out of my chest and throw it to piranha pool, I still loved the episode where Amy and Rory left.
If you have no clue what I talk about, I am sorry. I stop this right away and discuss about it with my therapist now on.

I bought yesterday a brand new bag from work and a new scarf etc.
And after work I went to Jussi's and we made bacon-chicken pizza, drank wine and beer and watched UMK final (that Finnish show where they decide who goes to Eurovision contest) and I'm not so happy about the winner, we even voted with our phones. I haven't done that.. never.

You can go read our own results from Jussi's blog: HERE

As you can see, our favorite was this furry handsome man with so amazing song but unfortunately we couldn't make him win. And Jussi voted other nice gentleman when I voted Lauri Mikkola.
Here's the song.
