I feel the spring on my skin

I'm so terribly sorry!! Sometimes I remember this blog for a moment and then forget it right away. There's no way I could explain this completely. I'm somehow really busy these days. I spend less time at home and more time in Helsinki. Okay, I'll tell my reason number one. Yes. My boyfriend.

I've been really lazy with what comes to art lately, except with photography, but I've started to feel like painting again, so maybe when it gets warmer, I'll take my oil colours, brushes and canvases and go outside ♥
Mirva was right, we do still have snow in here. BUT all the streets in Helsinki are dry already, and outside our school there's plenty of grass showing! I guess I said before that I love winter. Now it seems like I've finally found out what I really love. It's the cycle of the seasons. When it snows for the first time in the beginning of winter, I burst into a big smile, but now I've noticed the same effect when I've walked outside my jacket open, or without a jacket like today, or when I see grass somewhere it couldn't have been seen before, or when the birds sing or the sun shines, or when I tasted ice cream for the first time this year, Ben & Jerry's, outside, I almost started screaming and hugged my friend Julia really hard!
I guess I should carry my camera with me to school again some day to get some pictures of the spring in Helsinki. Maybe I'll do that. Maybe.

Okay so now it looks like it's my time to go get some sleep. Hope I'll remember to post something more soon, Mirva, try to wake me up by posting yourself :D:DD

Damn, I was gonna say goodbye by "pus" but then realised that I should probably translate it and then the atmosphere would be completely different if I'd say in English "kisses". It somehow gives me such a teenage feeling, that I'll just leave it :D

Pus!

The Path of Wind

I have no idea what has happened to Ansku, but I have a good reason for this late post; it's spring.

This photo was taken on Valentine's day. Me and Anja were having a lovely short holiday in Stratford, and while stopped playing turists we took a break, kicked off our shoes and enjoyed the wonderful feeling of leisure.

As you can see, this picture (taken few weeks ago) shows that the weather is getting warmer and warmer. That's obviesly fantastic, but weird. If I have understood right you still have snow in Finland, don't you? I can't understand why I even bothered to buy a new winter coat for this year - the temperature went under zero only twice!

My Final Major project is comic up and I have to do some research (read: watch films) for it. Ihave few books and couple of DVD's I need to check: The Lord of the Flies (William Golding), Prinsessa Madeleine (Laura Ala [trans. Princess Madeleine]), Platoon, The Silence of the Lambs, The Deerhunter and Howl's Moving Castle. Let's see if I find time to write about these a bit more.

Another thing I think I will return to is turning books into films. Gosh, I watched the new Narnia this one day... Uhhhh how can they have lost all the magic that was in the books? Some of these new films are just disgusting.

So this was a bit of an apologise post. I will write more about these things I mentioned before, but at the moment I'm just gonna take my sunglasses and go out to breath some warm wind the spring has brought to British Isles.
