Jouluaatto '12

Ihanaa, lämmintä joulua kaikille :-)

Aamulla herätessäni tuijottelin sängystä käsin perinteisesti Joulupukin Kuumalinjaa, jossa oli kylläkin väärä pukki, mikä oli pieni pettymys.. Aika nopsakkaa piti kuitenkin ponkasta sieltä ylös ja alkaa valmistautuu isovanhemmille lähtöön. Oltiin siellä perinteisesti joulupuurolla + herkuttelemassa päivällä! Ja tietysti katottiin joulurauhan julistus.

Isovanhempien kuusi

Iltapäivällä tulin kääntymään kotona, vaihoin vaatteet ja suuntasin porkkanalaatikoiden kanssa porukoille, jossa sitten oli joulupäivällinen viiden maissa. Ja olo oli niiiiiiin tönkkö sen jälkeen.... Voi terve, tommosta oloa ei kyllä onneks tuu hankittua ku suunnilleen sen kerran vuodessa. Mut oli superhyvää. Kaikkien oli pakko mennä vähän makuuasentoon sen ruuan jälkeen, mutta piti se lahjojen jakokin aika nopee siitä alottaa kun porukkaan kuului yksi 5-vuotias oikeen innokas joulupukin odottaja. Pukkihan meillä aina vaan koputtaa oveen ja sitte oven takaa ovelasti löytyy lahjakassit. Oltiin sovittu vaan vähäisistä lahjamääristä mutta kyllä niitä taas itse kullekin kerty.. Mullahan ei muita toiveita ollu kun talven sesonkimuumimuki ja leffalippuja, ja molemmat toteutu, joten kyllä saa olla tyytyväinen :-) Alkohan se suklaakin taas uppoomaan siinä lahjojen avaamisen parissa ja kohta oltiin taas tönkkönä! No, jouluna saa herkutella enemmän kun normaalisti.


Porukoiden kuusi

Lahjaks sain Bodyshopin ihanan lahjapakkauksen, leffalippuja jopa 6 kpl (pitääkin alkaa rampata leffoissa!), pörrösukat, tuoksukynttilän, muumimukeja jopa kaksin kappalein (ihana sisko :-)), lahjakortin, suklaata, suklaata, suklaata, pyyhkeen + yhen Bodyshopin shower gelin lisää, taidemuisti(päivä)kirjan, tyynyliinan (joita sain jo synttäreinä kaks, joten lahjotus siskolle), sukat ... Ihan varmaan unohdin nyt jotain mut noh. Kuitenkin enemmän mitä odotin tai olisin tarvinnut! Voi että, ootan niin että sitte joskus kun asun isommassa kämpässä ni saan laittaa noi kaikki muumimukit johonkin hienosti esille, nyt ne ei oikeen pääse oikeuksiinsa mun kaapista kun niitä on niin paljon jo!

En kyllä tiiä naista joka ei Bodyshopin paketista ilahtuis?

Mmmmm.

Pieni kooste suklaista, voin kertoo ettei ne tuu hetkeen loppumaan kesken... ehkä.

Kesäsesonkimuki + talvisesonkimuki!

Materialism - happiness?

Sunday. All the places are closed in here. The sky is cloudy (at the exact moment I wrote that it started to rain..). It's not warm outside. Boring day. I've never been a fan of Sundays, but in Finland at least some places are open. And in Finland Sunday was a good day to go to work. But here.. nothing.

So, as I'm bored and there isn't even school work I could do, I'm entertaining myself with my camera. It has been a good friend of mine here in Spain and absolutely one of the best things I've purchased lately (okay not so lately, I bought it before Christmas but you know what I mean).

Sometimes it just feels that materialism means happiness, and that's how I've felt today. Now I'm gonna introduce some stuff that I like or that can be found on my table. I didn't take pictures of some self-evident things - like Pepsi Max (here: Pepsi Light), MacBook, or my mobile + Angry Birds - as they are too obvious. Here we go. (Btw, it's not raining anymore.)

*****

1. Nomination (a composable bracelet) - my precious

I feel weird without it. The only piece of jewelry that I wear everyday.

My special pieces: "Little My" from the Moomins -  Love - the row of figures with red "diamonds" and a four-leaf clover with clear "diamonds" (from J :-))
*****

2. Different nail polishes

Those of you who know me in real life and have visited my Finnish home, know that I'm a nail polish addict. I left the majority of my nail polishes (there are more than twenty different ones) at home but I also took a few with me. And I've already bought a few new ones..

Kiko - top coat, Lumene - silver, the Body Shop - sparkling pink, Lumene - matte pink, Kiko - sparkling red, Maybelline - matte red, OPI - sparkling dark blue, Mavala - black oyster


the ones I chose to use today :-)

3. The Body Shop products

I had quite a many of these at home but I took just a few with me. Luckily I found the Body Shop store here too. My latest favorite scent is Coconut / Noix de Coco.


these two I bought just yesterday

4. Make up products

I put on some make up every day. In my opinion I don't use that much make up, except for the special occasions when I use a little more (and maybe in a different way).

the products I normally use everyday
Eye make up products for special situations (the eye shadow palette I bought just yesterday so I haven't tried it yet)
Usually I use just lip balm but if  want something more, I use lip gloss. I never use lipstick.

5. Earrings (and some other pieces of jewelry)

love love love. I really don't need so many pairs of them but I just like buying them. Well at least there's a variety to choose from :-D


my favorites at the moment

and the box of other jewelry

6. Perfumes

These are the only ones that I took with me from Finland:

Carolina Herrera - 212 Sexy, and the little ones: Lancôme - Miracle, Lancôme - Hypnôse
 I left two absolute favorites at home: Calvin Klein - Euphoria for Women (I was afraid of breaking it during the flights as I didn't have any suitable box for it) and Diesel - Fuel for Life (it was almost empty). I would like to buy a new perfume from here but I haven't yet decided which one it's gonna be. Suggestions?

7. Litterature

I suck at reading but  you can still find a few books on my table. It's been many years since I've finished one whole book but yesterday I began to read one and I think it's interesting enough for me to read it 'til the end!

Kira Poutanen - Rakkautta au lait (this is the one I began to read yesterday)
right.... looks interesting, don't you think?! that's the challenge I told you about. tough times ahead!

After all, this post wasn't as quick to do as I first thought! Well, at least this boring day has gone a bit faster as I've had something to do. But there are still many boring hours left.. blah.
