2. Tampere. There's life outside Helsinki. Everyone should give it a go. This observation is based on one evening's escapade in said town, contained to a single bar. It is therefore an entirely biased (and possibly alcohol-fueled) opinion. But one which i stick to, nonetheless.
3. Florence + The Machine. Not having gotten tickets for the gig at Tavastia, i'll have to content myself with admiring them from afar. Sigh.
3. Foosball. I've managed to convince myself i'm pretty good at this. I think i won't play it anymore, so i can keep on happily deluding myself.
4. Festivals. Only a matter of months until you get to wake up in a strange tent, lose one shoe, and have beer for breakfast.
5. Pad Thai. Kok Thai, the little Thai place just off Toolontori, does delicious tofu pad thai. Which i get a terrible hangover craving for. Oh if only they delivered. But they don't. Which is why i sit in bed on these mornings, headachy and salivating.
6. My new blender. I was at a loss after my old one died suddenly, mid-smoothie. This new baby, with its stainless steel finish and 700 watts of blitzing power, is set to save many a hung over morning by facilitating that welcome sensation of smoothie-induced brain freeze.
7. The word 'akimbo'. For no particular reason.
8. Helsinki Vintage. A treasure trove of beautiful people and pretty things. I'm convinced this is where i'll finally meet the object of my dreams: The Sailor Hat. fingers crossed.
9. My job. It rocks to get paid for doing something fun.
10. February. Cause it's the shortest month of the year. Now how about that summer? At this rate, we'll still have snow in June. Looks like you'll be in that tent, waking up next to a mysterious stranger ("who is this bumble bee-suited dude lying next to me, sporting a permanent markered cock on his forehead?"), finding your shoeless foot a curious shade of blue and your precious breakfast beer (and all other 27 bottles of solid-food-substituting alcohol) frozen and/or exploded. I'm just saying.
How bout your sisters 21st birthday feb 26? no mention, no mention. instead the the infamous bumble bee creep makes it on here? if you ever tap that i'll be glad not to be acknowledged in your post. i'm just saying.
ReplyDeleteif only you knew, Neis, that i might currently be writing an entire post focusing on you and the fact that you've finally hit drinking age in both of your countries of residence. Also, the fact that bumblebee man gets a mention here is not really a credit to him, as you might well know. i'm just saying.
