Queen: Too Much Love Will Kill You

I'm in such a good place in my life right now. There's a lot to be thankful for. Yet I can't let go of all the struggle that I've faced in my past. I keep them inside me, and let them guide me through all these new phases that I'm dealing with.  See, I've made mistakes but, honestly, I've learned a lot. It's never too late to change, to re-value your thoughts and views.

RIP Freddie

I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears raining down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone for much too long
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find where I went wrong

Too much love will kill you
If you can't make up your mind
Torn between a lover and the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster 'cos you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you - every time

I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems there's no way out this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down
How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
No there's making sense of it
Every way I go I have to lose

Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all.
It'll drain the power that's in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You're the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you
Every time

Too much love will kill you
It'll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won't understand why
You'd give your life you'd sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
In the end
In the end

This shot was taken in Gamla Stan, Stockholm, in 2001. We took a day trip to Stockholm from Uppsala. It was gals all around the world: Austria, Italy, Spain, Finland... We sure had some fun sightseeing and doing some shopping! I find this photo quite funny: my hair looks so short, and I don't even know where that red Marimekko shoulder bag is today. Maybe I need to ask my sis...

It's #tbt again.
This time I had to go way back in the h i s t o r y.
I think this pic was taken in 1997. I had my hair cut right after I got my second High School Diploma, this time in Kurikka, Finland. I'm sitting on my dad's bike. He rebuilt it all by himself. And later sold it to someone in Koskenkorva. My dad thought that that ride didn't run fast enough.

Quote for the Day

I'm so in need of a proper internet connection.
And, yes, my case with TeliaSonera is not over, yet.
I was supposed to get this super fast internet connection last Friday.
Guess what?!
At around 3 o'clock in the afternoon I got an sms telling me that I won't be getting my new internet connection until Monday (that's today). But on Friday they did have the time to close my previous internet connection.

Oh boy!
It's summer, this summer. Or should I say "last summer"? Well, any way, I'm referring to t h a t summer that we had like less than fours months ago here. I'm sunbathing. And my sister's dog, mr. Ukko, is sitting o n me!

We had a nice walk earlier that day. It was so sunny and hot that I felt like sucking some Sun in. I even had a blanket put in the shadow, for mr. Ukko. But, as you can see in the pic, he's sitting on me. There we were: me trying to get some Sun, mr. Ukko wanting to sit on me.
Thoughts?

I got this few days back.
It was shot at Hämeenkadun appro exactly two weeks ago.
As you can see in the pic we all had huge smiles on our faces. I don't know if it was just because drinks were for free, or we had an adequate excuse to attend this student party. Us adults, erm...

You can look Hämeenkadun appro up at http://www.hameenkadunappro.fi/in-english/.

Selfie (an Ode to the Summer)

Yesterday I felt like summer (for like a second) while having Ray-Bans on.

I may put them back on to feel, like, an endless summer.

Last Saturday.
A friend of mine bought a new sofa. We had a sofa warming party.
I really did feel like partying all night long but, then, I fell asleep at midnight.
Thanks, gurls!

Oh, whatever makes her happy on a Saturday night,

Oh, whatever makes her happy, whatever makes it alright

We'll go to peepshows and freaks shows,

We'll go to discos, casinos,

We'll go where people go and let go

It looks like I'm having a lot of fun (few months back).

And, indeed, I am!

I got my driver's license when I was like 19. I got my license during the winter time, and I just didn't drive. I was afraid of the icy roads, snow, and all that. Now I love driving my dad's Jeep Grand Cherokee! But don't let this pic fool you. I'm a girl with many talents: I can drive a scooter, too (no matter what). And safety comes first even if I (you) look like a dork. Remember that, fool!

ps this one's for you, my dear sister Marika! You were the most hardcore Scooter fan that I know.

Onnea, Ukko!

Siskonpoika, pappa Ukko, täytti eilen kahdeksan vuotta. Merkkipäivää juhlittiin "matkoilla".

It's me!
It's my two teeth!
And my big (huge!) smile.

My mom told me that I didn't like to just sit down and have my pictures taken when I was a kid. *) That's why you cannot see the summer hat my mom knitted me in the picture (and she knitted it especially for that special day in my (special) life). I still have that dress hanging in my closet at my parents. **) But we haven't seen that hat ever since.

*) This applies to my day-to-day life even today...
**) I can show it if you like.
