Week 6 & 7

Hello! It’s so awkward to start posts with excuses but I haven’t updated for two weeks because I’ve been too busy. I had to do finish my thesis and soon after my mom came here, and so I’ve been barely using computer. Everyone at work seem to realize that I won’t be there for a long time anymore and ask what I’m going to do after etc. I actually got summer job which is great, but what to do after that.. I’m pretty clueless about.

There was a lot of pressures to find graduation dress (and yes, it’s been confirmed that I’m graduating!) but in Amsterdam I found one from Urban Outfitters. It wasn’t cheapy, but totally my style and can be used more than once a year! Sorry, it’s wrinkled in photo.

Have you ever had fresh mint tea? SO GOOOD

Today was kind of the last chance to go Primark so Lotta and I took another trip to Almere. This time they had soooo much more better collection and I got two big bags of stuff…. ALSO, for the past couple of weeks floor managers have put me and Lotta to take care of V&D’s swimsuit section. On Friday two workers who are usually in charge of the swimsuits told that since we’ve been keeping it really nice and clean, they decided to give us Sapph towels as a gift! It was so nice of them, don’t you think? I’m too lazy with photos so here is screenshot of towel in online store:

The question is.. how do I fit it in my suitcase?

So yeah, only one week left. It’s sad, but I should have known from the beginning that it can’t continue forever like this. I’m really going to miss some people I’ve met during my stay here! I wish I could stay longer, but I have obligations in Finland waiting for me. I can always come back. (:

Have a great week, doei!

Week 5

Heyyy! I failed with my posting schedule again, but I haven’t got time to write. Work is as same as usual so I have nothing much to say about it. I guess this week goes really fast since tomorrow is Liberation Day and it means another day-off! Today I just stayed in Zwolle and tried to looked up for graduation dress, but I guess I’m too picky with it. I need to go to Rotterdam! Oh and next Friday my mama will come here so there will be some change to daily routines. I haven’t planned much for us to do, especially because I work most of the time, but I’m sure it will be nice to have her here. I also need to finish up my thesis ughh. I’m not gifted with good writing skills so wish me luck.

On Saturday we (me, Lotta, Paul and Aleksi) went to Keukenhof which is huuuuge flower park in Holland. It’s located in small town called Lisse and it takes about 3 hours to get there by train and bus. We bought tickets in advance for 35€ which included ticket to the park and also train+bus trips. So super cheap if you ask me! It was sooo nice there and good companion makes it even better. Ad even though it was full of tourists but at the same time calm and relaxing.

Here is some pictures Paul took, they are unedited but still look great. :) I was kinda sad because I didn’t bring my camera with me but I love these photos and I got to be behind camera few times as well. I snapped one with the random pug, he was such a lovely model!♥
