Marimekko: Oiva tea pot

I bought this cutie today, can't wait to use it♥

I♥tennis

Some years ago, I used to play at least once a week.. I miss those times sooooo much, because I love playing tennis!! This summer I got to play only once which is quite sad... Well, I won the game anyway, so it was a good one haha :D But on previous summers, my week could look like this:

A normal week: 3 hours of tennis, 3 days a week

A tennis camp week: 6 hours of tennis, 5 days a week

I really feel like playing tennis now!!! :(

Ps. I know I'm standing on the baseline... Faaault!

Sneak peek: my student flat

4th floor, no elevator... Oh my poor feet!! You'll get better pics after my room is finished, as I still need curtains. The building is quite old, from 1980's, but I really like this room. It's bright, I can see some trees from my window and I got some nice furniture :)

I'm looking forward to show you the whole room!

Kainuu

My week in Kainuu: spending time by the lake, eating fresh blueberries and cloudberries (okay, I didn't eat cloudberries because I don't like the taste), walking around... Our summerhouse is such a peaceful place!:)

The past few days have been really hectic!! I've been packing my stuff, meeting friends, buying furniture and running around the town... And yesterday, there was a flood in Oulu! I had just came back home when it started to rain and thunder a lot. And here's the result --> http://www.iltalehti.fi/uutiset/2012073015898697_uu.shtml

Blueberries

I've spent a few days (okay, almost a week) here in Kainuu, eastern Finland... But today we'll go back to Oulu and on Wednesday we'll go to Helsinki! So much to do, so little time :s

In the countryside

Ikea in Haparanda, Sweden

Hahaha, those trolleys were way too much fun... Some people gave me a weird look when I was driving around with that trolley but who cares :p

And this is what I got: a mattress, a pillow, a blanket, a lamp and a giant floor pillow :D

Saying bye to my room of 4 weeks

It was a bit strange to leave the summer school- I had been there for 4 weeks already! But those weeks passed so fast as it felt more like 2 weeks or something. I didn't have much free time there, but at least I had time to swim in a lake for the first time this year... The water was really cold, though :s

So, now I'm just waiting for the results! I already know that I got good grades from Swedish and Finnish courses, but I also studied history and social studies there...

Today's plan: meeting my classmates, going to our summerhouse :)
