Me on TV :D

Hey! ^^

The aim of todays post was to put here a link, where you can watch the TV show `Precamies` that I was in some time ago. Yesterday it was finally showed on TV :) For me, Linda and the rest of our friends, of course, it was so fun to watch it :D

The show you can watch here. I really don't know if it's possible to see it, if you're not from Latvia, so please let me know if it's not :) If so, I made some print-screens of this video for you:

It's Linda, Samanta and me.

I was talking something there :D

In our room :)

And I also applied for filming in a video about economics in Latvia, as they will film it in our faculty of biology :) We will have to `pass an exam` this Sunday :D
And yes - I think many countries got some snow this week ^^ It's so white around, but I guess it will melt soon... But today I took some photos :) On my balcony some grass grows, and today it was covered by ice and looked so beautiful :)

Have a nice evening and enjoy the snow ^^
P.S. I still remember about my promise to write a post about Hungary, so hopefully I'll do it this weekend :)

Party, Candle Night & Elephants

Heey! ^^

I decided to write this post to show you some photos :) Today I finally told this presentation to the teacher from Sweden, and again I realised how much I don't like talking in English :D But I hope it was ok.

On Friday my friend Sandra celebrated her birthday (which she will have on 28th of November). We went to folk club `Ala` (or `Cave` in English) again (I think I could live there) and spent a nice evening :)

And yesterday, as it was a Candle Night (I wrote about it here also in 2010), I went to graveyard. I guess, you already know that I'm a bit weird girl, but one more thing I really love is walking at a graveyard. It's such a peaceful feeling there, fresh air... Yesterday there also was a fog, so everything looked like from a bit scary fairytale ^^

And about elephants. More than a week ago in Riga five elephants, who arrived for a show to Riga circus, were walked around streets. I didn't read about this event earlier and went shopping that day, so just at the evening I found out about them... I wish I was there, as I love elephants so much! One of my first childhood memories is related to elephants - when I went to the zoo and our two elephants were inside, it was possible to reach them. I always took apples to the zoo and gave them to elephants, they took it with their wet trunks... So cute!

And yes - yesterday Sebastian Vettel became three times World Champion in F1 ^^ The race was really crazy, sometimes I didn't even understand, what's actually happening, but I love races like these ^^ Also Raikkonen did a funny mistake - he wanted to return back on track, using some other way (he did it so in 2001 already), but this time the gates were closed :D

And a team radio from Abu Dhabi. `Just leave me alone, I know what I'm doing!` Kimi is a legend! I'm so glad to be his fan ^^

Have a nice evening! ^^

Hey!

While it's not time yet to go to my Finnish courses, I'm trying to translate a crazy text about Elias Lönnrot (author of Kalevala) & decided that I must write something here :)

Two weeks ago I went to my grandma's friends house, as they have a new dog called Bella and I really wanted to see her. Spent a nice evening there, but the puppy was so crazy that I couldn't even take normal photos and was totally tired after just one evening and a football game with her :D

Isn't she cute? ^^

And last week I finally went shopping. Bought a blouse, boots & a knitted dress (that's called `I don't wear dresses` :D )

This week is a bit busy for me because of many homeworks and on Monday I'll have to tell about an article at ecology lecture in English, as its author from Sweden will arrive... Why he's not from Finland? :D Also I have to find some information for this years Biomimicry Design Challenge... I'm not in a team this year, but two girls who are don't even go to meetings.
And this Friday my friend Sandra will celebrate her 21st birthday, so it's gonna be fun. And this weekend is also a final race of this year in F1. I hope Sebastian Vettel will become a champion again (it will be three in a row for him, but still I would like it more than if Alonso becomes a champion).

And finally my this week's song. I'm totally addicted to slow ones right now. And I really love lyrics of this song.

Have a nice evening, my dear readers! ^^

P.S. I hope next week I'll have time to write about another trip to some country. So I let you to choose the country (just name it and if I was there, I'll write about it ^^).

P.P.S. The show `Precamies` I was at some time ago will be shown on TV on 29th of November. I hope it will be published online, then I'll post a link here :)

Karelia, Russia, 2008

Heeey! ^^

A week has passed since my last post, and today I'll take you to a little excursion around Karelia. If talking about nature, it was the best trip ever in my life. Such an awesome northern nature, many lakes, cliffs, waterfalls and forests... I can show these photos forever, I guess :) And the post will be really long (I just don't want to divide it into two or more posts).

We went to Karelia in August 2008 with a group of people by bus. It's the best way to explore this awesome part of Russia. First we went to Novgorod, and our first stop was Alexander-Svirsky monastery. We visited many churches during that trip, and in all of them girls had to wear dresses, and I looked great with a dress, as I didn't take my jeans & sweater off :D. We had an excursion around monastery, drank some holy water in a chapel and saw many photos on the wall.

Crete, Greece 2007

Hi, my dear readers! :)

As it's November already and it's not a nice time of the year to go somewhere and take photos, I'll tell you about another countries I have visited in my life (and show photos, of course). I hope there will be enough posts for long winter evenings ^^ All of them I'll put under a label `journeys`.

Sunset from the hotel

And today I'll tell you about my 12 days trip to Crete, Greece. I was there with my family in August 2007 and although I don't like hot weather and trips to countries where everyone just swim and sunbathe, it was really awesome!

So, take a plane and join me!

♥

Heeey! :)

I just understood that if I'm not taking photos, I'm not writing here at all for weeks, even if I have some time. Maybe I should show you some old photos, for example, from another countries which I have visited some years ago? By the way, I just also understood that in last 4 years I've been only in Finland and Sweden (even though I have a chance to go somewhere else) :D

But in this post I wanted to show you my todays drawing. I was trying to remember the times I really could draw many things (maybe I had more time then, but now I don't draw at all).

It's Kimi Raikkonen, of course ^^

I think now I can only draw racing cars (and just if I have a picture in front of me). But still drawing the front of the car & front wing makes me crazy.

Have fun and take care! ^^
