The wedding I was so excited about!

No, it wasn't my wedding! XD XD XD No, no, no! It's not time for that yet! But I got invited to my really important friends' wedding and that was today (one reason for the song above actually)! =) I tell you it's just the cutest couple I've ever seen! <3 I was so happy and still am for them! =) The only problem was at first that I hardly knew anyone from there but then I just started to talk with some people so I ended up having so much fun! And so much laugh! XD Some of those speeches there just made me laugh so much the tears started to fall down from my eyes! :'D

Anyway it's been said that one picture tells more than 1000 words so I put punch of pictures here! I have a permission from the couple to use them here, but you're NOT allowed to copy them etc! But enjoy! ;)

The ring!

The first kiss! <33

The just cut the cake! =D

<3

So cute! =33

Even I got into some of the group pictures! :D

The dress is from New Yorker! =)

It tastes like Brazilian!

Restaurant Canarinho

Sooooo delicious :P

Those grilled bananas were awesome :P

From the harbor

Olá my friends! Yesterday there was a Pop-up restaurant day in Helsinki, which means that whoever wants to, can find his/her own restaurant for one day. So we had decided earlier on the week, that we'd go to see what kind of Brazilian restaurant there would be. We just saw an add about it from the newspaper and we all love exotic food, so there we go! It was soooooo yummy! Except the chicken hearts... yuk! :P

After we were done eating, we went to the harbor just for a walk, and sit down somewhere to eat desserts and also taking some pictures, as it was so awesome weather. :) I really want to go check the pop up restaurants again next time, seems like the food there is actually good =)

Last Saturday I also started my dance school again after a year break. What made me even more exited was, that one of my closest friends decided to start in the same dance group too, so now we have a place and time to see each others, as usually we're both so busy that it's kinda impossible. Only thing now, what bugs me is, that we'd have a street show in three weeks, but I won't be able to go to the practise in the next two weeks: This saturday will be my friends' wedding (other one of them is just the one who started in the same dance group) and then the next whole weekend I'll be gone in a camp for those who just came home from exchange. Of course I'm excited because of those, but it just bugs me that now I won't be able to dance in the show. Well whatever; We'll have more shows coming during the season anyway so let's move on =)

Now I think I need to go to do my homework, so this is it for now! There'll be a post about this fridays concert and then of course from the wedding so don't lose your interest ;) See you later!

Livin la vida loca!

 
Those are lyrics from Ricky Martin's song (above) which has been played in my head since last week, thanks to Mario!:P xxxx

But yea, I actually don't even know what to write to be honest! XD School has started and so far I'm doing good there. Bigger projects are only starting though, and those and tests are the bigger reasons why I'm so stressed during the year, but I survived on first year, I will survive now too. :P

So far jet lag is not the only reason anymore why I hate time difference; Dominican Republic is 7 hours behind Finland and Mario studies too so the times when we're actually able to talk are very limited now. During weeks another one of us just sends a message to the other one, who answers when s/he is able to. And most of the time, I won't get a reply 'till night time, when I'm already sleeping, so then I answer when I wake up (which is the time when he is sleeping). Well, we'll get used to this I think, and during weekends we're usually able to Skype anyway, so it's okay. =)

I put some pictures of my clothes from yesterday and today, and also some other pictures from Ines at the end. =) So enjoy!

From today

Yesterday =)

They were chasing each others :D

Dog park!

Haha! Yesterday I went to the dog park with Ines. I took my camera with me as I was hoping to get some cool running pictures. That didn't work out so well I think because it was so warm that Ines was too tired to run, but I got some pictures anyway so there you go:

New friend! =3

She loves to play with bottles

See you soon again!

Enjoying the last days of summer break!

 Hola amigos! As the school starts soon, I thought I'd wanna tell you what do I have in my school bag, especially now because I just bought some new stuff. So here we go:

All of these (except of course my phone and the headphones) are from a bookstore called Suomalainen Kirjakauppa

My old pencilcase was a little mess, so i had to buy a new one, which also has more space for all the stuff i need

Of course I have more notebooks than these two, but these are the only ones that have pictures in them so they're my favorites :)

 Maybe I finally learn to keep all my papers in order in this folder. I love the Moomins in it :D

These are the new stuff I bought (except of course I had to buy the school books). So I think I'm ready to start the new school year now no I'm not, I want summer back!That's all today! Have a nice day all of you! =)

xoxo Julia

"Te quiero, amor mio!"

Hi guys, here I am again. I promised you i'd tell more about my mysterious Latino-American boyfriend if he lets me, and he said it's okay so here we go:


  That mister's name is Mario (i keep pronouncing it wrong all the time :D),he just turned 18 and like i told he lives in Dominican Republic. We got to know each other on facebook and yes, i know it's not the smartest way to start a relationship but he has proved so many times that he is what he says he is so he has won my trust. We published this just few days ago but for real it started already almost a month ago.

We keep contact on facebook, on WhatsApp and by skype and he has promised that as soon as possible, he will come to visit me. :) Hmm... I really don't know what else to write. Ask me, if you wanna know something more. And people please, don't give me rude comments about this. I know distance relationships have their own troubles but we wanna try and we hope you respect our choise. Thank you :)

 Later today I will go to Tuusula (our neighbour town) for the Tuusula's Night of Arts. I will take some pictures there and put them here later. Otherwise, there's nothing special going on right now. I just finished making space to my school books in my bookshelf and getting my school back ready. Yep, school starts on monday: Good bye Summer break! =( But it's also fun to see my friends again. :)

To the end I'll put a picture of a shirt that I bought from Lindex today. =)
See you later! =))

 

P.s: Sorry about the quality of the picture: I took it by my phone =P

xoxo: Julia

Who am I?

Hello there, where ever you read this. Some of you might regognise me as I spent last year in Minnesota, USA as on exchange. I came home on June 28th (late cause I missed my connection flight from Washington D.C to Frankfurt) .

Anyway, for those who don't know me; I'm Julia and I come from Southern Finland. I'm 17 and the youngest of my family; I have two older sisters. We also have a small dog called Ines. Like you probably saw from the side of the blog, the biggest role in this blog will be with my absolutely favorite hobby dance, travelling as we travel a lot and with the long distance relationship between me and my boyfriend who's from Dominican Republic. I won't tell his name yet because I'm not sure does he like it but if he lets me, I'll introduce him later! :)

For now on, welcome to follow my new blog, this time just about my normal life :)
