Teenage dreams in a teenage circus, running around like a clown on purpose.

Even if busy, I’ve had time to spend in my pj’s at my parents house, my nuclear home.

Baby, bake me a blueberry pie!

The exhaustion of coming back home, want to see everyone and know everything that’s been going on, taking it easy, making a household function and what-not… putting all this together is tiring.

I have a feeling this is going to be a really good time. If two girls live together what can you expect? We have one closet full of shoes and another full of sheets, tablecloths, curtains. There’s drinking tea, making food, talking about the advice preast’s wife gives in the year 1894, decorating, walking to get to know the neighbourhood and all that – not to even start about the housewarming party.

Tomorrow I’m finally starting a week from a blank page and I’m ending it with the class of dancehall reggae. What better way is there?

Muuttopäivä

Huhhui… ensimmäinen viikko takana. Oon kovasti väsynyt.

Tänään raahattiin Jussin ja isän kanssa mun kamat uuteen kämppään. Laskin tavaroita raahatessa muuttaneeni tukikohtaa viisi kertaa vuoden aikana: Vantaa-varasto, edestakas Espanjassa (Pacos-Barcelona-Pacos), varasto-Helsinki.

Voi puulattioiden ja leveiden ikkunalautojen nostalgiaa. Kunhan sain kynttilät ikkunoille, sängyn pedattua ja vaatteet kaappiin, niin alkoi tuntua kodilta. Koko päivä meni purkamiseen, eikä vieläkään ole valmista. Tai no.. minä olen. Kypsä lähes. Kylppärissä on vielä isän 3 metrinen surffilauta, jonka piti tulla pöydäksi, muttei siitä sellaista taideta saada. Jotain käyttöä sille vielä keksitään!

Nyt voin vihdoin nukkua omassa sängyssä. Kuva

Jos tai kun ehkä..

Suussa maistuu vieläkin Fanta Lemon. Oltiin äitin ja iskän kanssa viikonloppuna Costa de Luzin kierroksella Tarifalla, Cádizissa ja siellä rannoilla. Ihana ilma, kauniita ihmisiä ja marokkolaisia oviaukkoja. (Kuvia vähän myöhemmin.)

Tein viimeiset työjutut tänään aamulla ja nyt olen ihan oikeasti vapaalla ainakin heinäkuun loppuun asti. Huomaa, että suomalainen työnarkomaani ei osaa olla rauhassa, kun heti eilen illalla istuin netin äärellä katsomassa lentoja ja – ammattikorkeakoulujen sivuja. Mitä jos minusta tulisikin sisustussuunnittelija tai puuseppä, korusuunnittelija, kahvilanpitäjä tai..?

Ideoita kyllä olis, mutta mikään ei tunnu ihan (quite) toteuttamisen arvoiselta. Mulla taitaa olla sitoutumisongelma. En pysy paikallani oikeen missään suhteessa tarpeeksi kauaa, että saisin jotain oikein hienoa aikaiseksi. Koulu (työharjoittelu) on tällä hetkellä ainoa staattinen suoritus meikäläisen elämässä – vai miksikä sitä pitäisi kutsua? Paikka vaihtuu, tyypit ympärillä vaihtuu, ajatukset ja ideat vaihtuu tuuliviirimäisesti, ruokatottumukset ja liikuntatavat samoin. Entä sitten kun koulu loppuu?

Sillä aikaa kun joku miettii mun puolesta, meen loikoomaan tuonne uima-altaan reunalle ;)

Picture update,

I have a problem with time and memory at the moment. Sparetime goes by fast and is pleasant. And when I do have time to sit in front of the computer and write here, I have no image in my head of what to write. Sometimes I can’t even remember what there would be to tell of yesterday. SO.. as a solution, pictures!

Gray wallet and some cloride

I don’t really have much to report. I’m working and sleeping.. and being confused. It’s a 24/7 job to be me these days. Job as in there’s obvious bad sides in it as well.

So let’s do it random then:

I worked late hours last week. So I got half a day off on Friday. I slept a good part of it at the beach but then Steve took me to this huuuuge shopping center called La Cañana in Marbella. I have never been in such a big one. I have a new favourite store now as well: Blanco. LOOOVELY. So much colour that my wallet went very grey.

Enric is coming for a visit on Friday but before that there’s a two day trip to come. I’m going to the hot springs of Alhama de Granada. I got days free and a nice note from the chief editor when I suggested it as a travel story to the next newspaper :)

I called my parents just because one particular day in the past few weeks. After talking my mom for a moment, I can once again say how much I appreciate her calm being. However, the next day it just hit my brilliant mind. They are growing old.
Let me explain. After I came back to Italy, many things changed in the big family and in my nuclear family. One thing that happened during my stay away was that my parents grew more together and started growing old. I remember being annoyed from their ridiculous honeymoon period in the autumn and jealous of not getting the same attention I got before. Sometimes I think they didn’t even notice it.. but now I think it’s just a natural part. Children are growing old and leaving the nest. They get prepared for growing old together. They prepare to bare only each other :)
I tell their story to so many friends as a prime example of something I adore and respect.

To even more pleasant things: Nigel came back. I thought he might’ve commited suicide in the pool, but actually just the day after I washed my floor with cloride, he came back. Clever little fella was probably in my curtains all this time. Now he’s just going up and down there.

Oh lust how much I love you

Up we go, bad or not

Lonely dogs, happy scumbags

This was suppose to be a picture of someone I love.
