Midnight musing (again)

 Good and happy Midnight to everyone! As a lover of reading, music and writing, I sometimes get into a reading slump, music doesn't feel like it's moving me, as it usually does, and I get writers block, I have just found myself back recently, first reading more and listening to audiobooks, music inspires me to write. It's a good circle. :)  During the past two years my depression has significantly improved and gotten a lot better <3  It all started with a nice guy... and nowadays I don't feel so obsessed with a guy, but I do have a lil' crush on someone. No, you can't guess who it might be. It's none of your business! Some things are better left unsaid. Nowadays I have raised my standards. I am not going to settle. That's that. No more running around as a headless chicken. I love music, it has helped me SO much during my life, also playing the piano and singing, dancing and going to concerts. I could never live without music! Same goes for books and r...

Music and me

 Dear follower, reader and other folks! This will be a blog about one thing that hasn't got a blog for itself: MUSIC. I took a lil' break from this blog. A lot happened last year. There were times when I actually didn't even feeling like I would like to listen to music!!! It was the first (and hopefully last) time this has ever happened to me! Now I have been mending my relationship with music... I guess every one who is obsessed with music, needs to have a break every once in a while. LOL. I am often still surprised how little or nothing music means to some people. I couldn't comprehend it. Just so you know, my biological dad was a musician and played several instruments, sang etc. So I am eternally grateful to him for giving me his gene for loving music! It was the second best gift from him, and a legacy. The best thing of course was to put me up for adoption!  Music is my life. I know, what a cliché! I am so redundant and hyperbolic! SORRY!  I have listened to a lot ...

midnight pondering

Hey there... I'm happy. A little tired, but in a good way, if that makes sense. I'm listening to music with my headphones, because it's in the middle of the night. My cat is sleeping next to my leg and I don't feel like sleeping just yet. I fell asleep listening to Harry Potter and the goblet of fire. Then I woke up when my sleep timer stopped it. Lol. So it goes... I have been listening to Harry Potter a lot. I listened to Harry Potter 1,2 and 3 within a week, I think. I also read a little, at the same time. Oofé, this is not my book blog. I forgot! Well, this will be more than just books 📚.  I have been feeling a lot better nowadays. It is lovely. I'm really glad.  I got a new phone, so I'll sell my old one ASAP. Then I'll go eat at a place where my friend works. To celebrate my new phone. Lol. Also, I will go to Lidl and buy food etc. My missionary friends are coming over and we are going to clean my home a bit. In the area I will Skype my friend in the ...

Reader, I am back

 Hello! Sorry for my absence... I have been ill, in the hospital, depressed, on a little trip to my parents... All kinds of places, in fact. Everywhere except online, blogging lol. Excuse me... Today I was thinking about my 10+ blogs and came to the conclusion that I need to write more about music and movies.  Today I watched "Bird on a wire" with Goldie Hawn and Mel Gibson. It is an oldie but a very goody. I love it. I think Goldie Hawn is a great actress... and well, Mel Gibson... WOW! LOL. They made a perfect match in that movie, in my opinion. There was this awesome song playing in a scene in the movie: "Bird on a wire" by The Neville Brothers. It is sooo pretty... It makes me happy.  I love love, and it is kind of a love song.  More later!

Hello and have a good day!

Hey there! ;) I'm baaack. With some inspiration. Just like playing the piano, my writing talents have been "rusty". Now I have started blogging like crazy. It helps. The motivation, when I see someone has read my blog, when I have the "flow" e.i. I have ideas and my writing just comes easily, those things are the best! I have been lazy, I know. I remember the first blog I wrote... It was fun. I had a lot of fans on that site. Now it's gone. I don't know just what happened to that page. POOF! GONE! :'( Thank goodness for blogger <3 I have 10 (?) blogs here. I am happy. That is just enough. If I come up with another "theme" for a new blog, I don't know what to do lol. Maybe then I would switch one of these "basic" blogs into something more specific. For example, The Muppets. I have been thinking of starting a new hobby: Study, watch and learn more about The Muppets. I was thinking of buying a book about the Muppets. Lik...

The Very Old Me

Hi there! So sorry etc for being absent for years... What can I say? I am a lazy person... LOL I just counted my blogs on blogger. NINE (9)!!! blogs are what I have here, and maybe two on wordpress... WHOA, when and how did this get this way?!? lol. It is a mystery... Next year (2020) I will turn 40. So it is time for me to get "it" together and write more regularly. I really should make a timetable of some sorts or something. I loooooooooove blogging! It is the Best. It is better than keeping a diary, because it is so fast to type (at least for me). I have been blogging for 12 years soon 13 years. That is a long time. WOW, and I am getting old. I was checking the amount of visitors on my blogs. It was a huge surprise that my most read blog was my blog in FINNISH! :O Wow people! People in Finland like me, more than in any other country. hahahahahahahaaa! Of course, I was born here, my second native tongue is Finnish, I look like a Real potato-nosed Finn, with blondish h...

Music is my life. 💓

Hi there! I'm currently listening to my most favourite singer in the universe : Céline Dion... I have been her fan since 1993/1994... The first memory I have of listening or singing her songs, is in my home town of Jakobstad, summer of 1994. We were walking with my friend, around the harbour and singing "Think Twice". The rest is, as they say, history 😁 When I was 15/16 I got her CD : The colour of my love. When I was in the town of Jyväskylä, on my mini mission, in the summer of 1997, we sat at the dinner table with my companion sister Friday, and we sang together "It's all coming back to me now"... That same year, in the Fall, I ended up in a hospital and often listened to Céline's music. It was my comfort and it helped me a lot. I saw Titanic with the other patients from the hospital, at the movies, and actually fell asleep during the film, because of my heavy medication. But the song : "My heart will go on" became my personal anthem fo...

Spanglish and pudding :)

Today I've been home all day, except if it counts that I went outside and opened the mailbox :) Yesterday I went to the grocery store and got food for the rest of the week. I just ordered the magazine Cosmopolitan in Finnish and today the mailbox contained my free gift, which was this really cool, white watch :) It is SO cool, I just want to go somewhere and wear it so that I can feel awesome ;) Then, today I've watched a Police program about what some police men did during a night in our capitol city -Helsinki. Drunks, drugs and fights, some fireworks. I have eaten today one whole pudding (Vanilla) it was maybe 3 deciliters... :( But it was good :) Made in Sweden ;) Now I'm watching "Spanglish" and recording more music onto my USB :) Soon I can listen to Great music while reading the rest of my 52 books this year :P

Things I'm obsessed with Part One :P

This is so weird. The last couple of weeks I've dreamt that I have albino Male Lion. So now I'm obsessed with white Tigers and Lions... Another thing that I've been addicted to is "Dance Moms". Every Thursday I have to sit infront of the TV. I think it might be because I danced the ballet as a child ;) Today I woke up before 8 a.m.!!! I usually never am able to get up before 12. So this will be a looong day. I have to go after my new passport, get introduced to a gym I'm considering on joining, go eat a Kebab with my dear friend Marjatta, go to institute (Mormon stuff ;) and somewhere in between I have to go to the store and buy food... Geez... How can I get all this done?!? :( I may have to cancel parts of it :P Now I'm listening to and recording Madonna's CDs into my new USB :) I want to read Sweet Valley Twins and Nancy Drew! I always listened to Madonna when I was younger and read those series... I really love those books. In mu opinion, if...

Mobile Update :))

Hello dear blog-followers and other humans ;) I was going to blog yesterday... And on Monday :P Then the time was suddenly 02. a.m. and I had to go to bed... Today I have not used my computer at all. I've been using fb, twitter etc. from my iPhone ;) And all freaking day I've been listening to music and filling my brand-new 8-gigabyte USB-memory thing (which I can wear around my arm ;) with music, so that when it's filled I can just press *shuffle* and draw, write, read -whatever. And then I do not have to get up every now and then and change CD's! :) Because one USB with 8 Gigabytes worth of music is... Long. :) It's been two days, filling the USB... Because I fill it through my CD-player :) Now it's Lady Gaga Time "Poker Face" ;) Soon this will be the end of today and I'll put some music to transfer and keep the volume so low that I can sleep, eventhough the USB is recording. Tomorrow it will all go on... It's hard work, choosing the Best M...

Hello! :)

Hey! I'm baaaack... I've found a new favorite soundtrack: RIO :) Also I've started listening to the soundtrack to "The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" :) It's also very good ... Now I'm listening to RIO. I'm at my new appartment in Tampere, I haven't yet moved in officially. Today I'm going visiting teaching with Marjatta and then home to the kittied and daddy in the "duck-park" :P Yesterday I met my friends at one of their places and we ate nachos with guacamole and cheese etc. and cookies for dessert. Today I woke up at 12.15 I was so tired... Tomorrow is Wednesday and I'm going to be home probably all day. Nowadays I've been so happy, that it feels like every day is my favorite day :) That's really nice :) I got my first calling in church on Sunday: The music coordinator in Relief Society. It's gonna be fun :) I skyped with my mom this morning for 1.5 hours :) It was fun. More later!!! :)

Happy October!!! :D

Hey You! :P Today I've been at home all day. Yesterday my two friends V and M came to visit me. We went shopping for cat food and Pepsi Max at the local Lidl store, then we ate delicious dinner at Rosso near the Tammerkoski rapids in the center of this the city of Tampere. Then we went shopping for some dessert and something to bring a long for our visit at V's brother, D. :) So, we drove to Sale in Pispala, the neighbourhood between Lake Pyhäjärvi and Lake Näsijärvi, there we bought cookies, salad, candy and chocolate. Then we went to Pyynikki and visited V's brother -D. :) He is very nice. I haven't seen him for some years. He is a very good person. Then M, V and me went to my home and they visited my cats :) They haven't seen them in quite a while. Today I slept late, watched General Conference and listened to music. Soon the last session will start. I'll try to watch it. I might get too sleepy towards the end... :-S More Later!!! :) TA!

I'm back :P

Hey There! Finally my inspiration is slowly returning to meee :) This pic was taken on the day I received my very own Endowment in the Temple, in Västerhaninge, near Stockholm in Sweden, where I live :) <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 It was a wonderful day! I was so happy all morning and all day and in the Temple and afterwards :) It was SO great!!! :)  Today I've been home all day, here in Tampere, Finland, where I'm now visiting/staying at my childhood home with my Mom and Dad and my cats :) My Mom returns to Stockholm after a week and then later I will also go back to my gorgeous apartment in DownTown Stockholm (Kungsholmen) with my two kitties.

The World According to Princess Cindarella :)

HI THERE!!! :D I've been a non-blogging entity for many months, weeks, days, hours or whatever and my blog is never read by many people. Well, none of my blogs are read very often... And I've started too many already :*) SIGH! But I thought that if I start a new one, about things that I want to write about in my book, yep, I'm writing a book... About my Life. I've considered writing it in English. I've started in one book by hand (paper, pen etc.) but my ex-teacher (Susse) said it would be better to write on the computer. So, because I have no memory-stick or whatever it's called, I thought I would divide my life into chapters here and write things I would like to write about then later in my book... I don't know if it will work, I might loose interest pretty quick or get tired of always having to turn on the computer. BUT! There was a program on TV yesterday about what kind of methods WRITERS have, when they are writing their bestsellers... The Stephen ...
