- The trip to Bonn with my cousin was lots of fun: good food, warm weather, went to Köln and Schloß Augustusburg, saw the Napoleon und Europa - Traum und Trauma exhibition, and just generally had a wonderful time. (I also fell in love with a Scottish waiter at an Italian café)
- I received an unconditional offer from Aberdeen - now I can't choose between Aberdeen or Dundee!
- Of Moons, Birds & Monsters-MGMT
- Merry Happy-Kate Nash
- Finally told my boss that I'm going to quit after May - it wasn't even as daunting as I anticipated.
- Mowgli's Road-Marina & The Diamonds
- Been listening to Naive by The Kooks for over an hour on repeat at three a.m.
- My mum told me that my grandmother (from my father's side) passed away. It was actually a relief for both her and my grandfather, because she's been very ill for so many years now. Lepää rauhassa mummu.
- I am seriously worried about Finnish politics, because the nationalist party got more votes than ever. But that's democracy, I guess.
- I had a wonderful weekend with my mum who came to visit and my sister. We made delicious food and the weather was lovely. Also, I bought a dress I've been eyeing for some time now - it was 60% off!
- Finally went to see Black Swan with my cousin - it was so beautiful but so disturbing. Rarely does a movie give me the chills so many times.
- I bought a wonderful new spring coat (about time too, my old one was already about six years old and not my style at all anymore) and I love it!
- Whistle For The Choir-The Fratellis
- This video of Paris
- Jos et sä soita-Regina (it whisks me to the kiosks in my hometown in the summers of the nineties - tan skin, sun-bleached hair in a messy braid, still partially wet after swimming, digging pennies from our pockets to see if we could afford one more ice cream.)
- Maailman toisella puolen-Haloo Helsinki! (_"Äiti älä pelkää, kyllä pidän itsestä huolen"_ - this is what I want to tell my own mum)
- I stole a black skirt from my mum's wardrobe and I am so in love with it. It makes me feel so grown up! (especially with my new coat, it is so perfect)
- I'm a bit late on this, but I'm totally hooked on watching Misfits now (hurray for youtube!)
- I don't care that everyone seems to be dissing the Royal Wedding - I thought it was lovely and romantic and Kate's dress was beautiful.
