soundtrack: Emiliana Torrini – Big Jumps

Rainy election day, didn’t want to go outside. But did, in yellow polkadot rainboots, with healthy snacks.

I need to buy a plane ticket very soon. Only two months until the Hague. Strangely, after wanting to go back to Holland for so long I haven’t thought about it that much, my mind on the next big dreams already… sometimes, but most of the time just here and now. And hopefully when I am there in the spring I will continue to be here and now, meaning there and then. Not missing too many things that are left here, knowing everything worth value will still be here when I come back.

It’s only a little jump.

soundtrack: the bird and the bee – again & again

Things spill when I get busy. Early morning my only time. Right now it’s like the groundhog day: working on a magazine layout all day, every day. Back home at 9 p.m. every single night. Days, weeks blend into each other. But only for a couple more weeks.

I found this song (from the movie) and decided that if I ever needed a wedding song this would be it. It’s good to have some things figured out, eh?

soundtrack:  death cab for cutie – your new twin sized bed

A day off, starting it slowly with a favourite movie.

Feeling a little lonely and out of place today. The flipside of not belonging anywhere (to anyone). Except on the left side of the bed. Does anyone know how to sleep in the middle?

morning soundtrack: sarah blasko – perfect now

Life is pieced together by music and coffee. Especially when it gets busy.

Going to dance to this on Friday, it’s a friends birthday.

soundtrack: moving to New York

All work and no play lately, but thankfully the work is play-like.

Yesterday night K. and I went to see The Wombats. So refreshing to go to a gig with a totally different crowd, not a single familiar face all night. Sometimes Helsinki feels so small with all the same people every time… and still it seems impossible to make new friends.
