A dress out of Stockmann's catalog

Hi mates!:)

I gripped the Stockmann's Hullut Päivät (Crazy Days) -catalog a day before it started, so that I could see what they were having on sale each day. Since I've done clothes out of paper before, I decided to use the catalog before recycling it. 

Usually I don't think what I'm going to do when I start making a piece of clothing, I just start doing it which of course happened this time too.  It turned out to become a peplum dress and I actually kinda like it. :D
It's so weird that I hardly use dresses myself but I love making them.






Oh yeah, because it's already the middle of November I was thinking that should I make like a advent calendar posts from 1st of the December until December 24th. Please leave a comment below! :)

It's already November

Hi mates!

Long time no see and I can't believe how fast the weeks have went.
 I've tried to focus on school more than I did before but still it feels that I don't do enough (probably because I so lazy doing so of my homework). Although I feel that I enjoy school more than last year.

So far I have become more and more aware that I really need to work on time management. There is so many things I would like to do but I just never plan time to do it.

Tomorrow I'm going to ask my Finnish teacher about this little project that could I do it and if she says yes then I probably will show some pictures of it here. :)

The Irish festival of Oulu 2015

A chairde!
(it means friends/dear all)
That was Irish Gaelic if you didn't know...':D

Last week we had our annual Irish festival here in Oulu. It was a big celebration because it was the 10th Irish festival of Oulu, so far. The last two years I went to see Gaelic football matches but this year instead of watching the Gaelic football tournament, I learnt some Irish Gaelic.
(I'm not sure with word to use so I mostly use both of them)

The language course was during Friday, Saturday and Sunday overall 8 hours. Our teacher came all the way from Ireland and she was awesome. She taught us the basics to have a conversation in Gaelic and a couple of songs.



On Sunday I went to The Chieftains' concert. It was the ending/closing concert of the festival so the place, where the concert was held, was very crowded. I enjoyed the gig a lot and I would be very happy if I could listen to them live again.

I'm really looking forward to next year because then I'll be 18, so there will be more events that I can participate. :)

Easy smoothie recipe

Hello mates! :)
This time I'm going to tell you a very simple smoothie, which I've tried now a couple times.
Okay, let's begin...

The ingredients you'll need:
- a banana
- an apple (I prefer the green one)
- a pear
- about 1 to 2 dl of vanilla yoghurt





























After you've gathered the ingredients, peel the fruits, chop them into the blender and add the yoghurt.






























Then just turn the blender on and blend the ingredients well together. And now you have a delicious smoothie. :)

One picture, different versions

Hi mates!! :)
I am here again with another photograph focused blog post...':D

So I took a photo of this place and I edited it with Photoshop to get all these different versions of it.

 I think that this is the original picture.

It is my blog's 1st birthday! / I went fishing

Hi mates!
I just thought about checking the day when I made the first blog post on to this blog.
IT'S EXACTLY A YEAR AGO yikes!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But now on today's topic...
On the September 13th I went fishing with my dad to a river called Nuorittajoki which is located in Pudasjärvi.


Sorry about the showing insides of the fish but we didn't have a choice. The fish had eaten the hook so well that my dad wasn't able to take it off when the fish was still alive.






If you would like to see something special because I have had this blog now for a year, please leave a comment down below! :)

SCHOOL SCHOOL SCHOOL

Hi mates!:)
I've been in school for almost a month now. I have really tried to focus on it, so it's been difficult for me to even post anything here.
In this post I will show you some pictures that I took and edited during the last couple weeks on visual art class.
(As you might tell this blog is slowly turning to photography blog...)
