A whole month without blogging! Oh, I feel so guilty. I don´t. I haven´t posted anything because it felt unpleasant and I didn´t have any great thoughts to share...
Summer´s over. Yes, I don´t mind
saying it out loud. We all know the Finnish summer lasts for two
months, strictly. We don´t like the heat anyway, do we?
I always (really?) praise autumn and it´s
gloominess, heavy rain and wind, darkness, thick jumpers and yellow
leaves. It´s dramatic, I love it. Alteration of seasons has already
disappeared in some parts of the world due to the climate change so
why not enjoy it while we can.
My world today:
Blueberry season. Fitness. Investing in
a good jacket. Reading novels. Painting nails. Getting ready for the
art exhibition.
I´m also trying not to be so nice.
Girls are often raised to be nice and obedient but I want to rebel.
Being nice can also mean neglecting your own needs and wants. Or
being someone else than yourself. I´ve been practicing at work where
I meet a lot of people who expect stuff from me. I try not to be that
nice girl who always listens and smiles. I´ve started kind of
ignoring people who I don´t want to talk to. I´m polite enough but
I don´t have to make customers adore me. How liberating is that!
Trying to please people is my eternal
problem, a pain in the arse. Some day I´ll stop for good. Like being
afraid of making mistakes and of their results. What I really really
really want to do now is to
- buy a bike
- have sushi
- grow muscles
- own more dresses and high heels
And yes, I don´t mind having a drink
before I go to work. It´s not illegal, is it?
