(HUGE POSITIVE SURPRISE TO FIND OUT THAT THEY HAVE TRESEMMÉ IN FINLAND!! WOHOO!)

oh and and a box of insanity, please.

I promised a thing again.
And once again, I didn't keep it.
I went shopping.
(This is the part where my sister gets mad at me: "You said:' Of course I won't go shopping! I dont need more clothes! And even if I needed, there's no space for them in my luggage!")
['Grrreat succcess' I'm watching Borat as I'm writing this.. I wont get offended if someone now stopped reading my blog : DD It's kinda funny actually. the movie. Not my blog.]
So.. where was I.. Ah, yeah. I went shopping.
When I left from home, I decided to go to Fashion Valley. And that only! Hah. Yeah. This is how it turned out:
1. Santee : 7eleven : normal 7eleven stuff
2. Mission Valley - SAKS fifth avenue outlet : nothing. Tried about 10 pairs of jeans and a couple of shirts. AND SOME AMAZING GUCCI-HEELS<3(drooling). I'm so proud of myself that I didnt buy anything. That doesnt happen that often when I go to this store!
3. Fashion Valley:
H&M: nothing. H&M was pretty much the reason why I went to Fashion Valley! But once I entered the store.. I don't know. I felt kinda stupid. I was in a H&M-store. Swedish brand. And I'm going back to F-land in just couple of days(urgh!) and there r like million H&M stores in western F-land where I'll live.
Old Navy: nothing. I went to try on some jeans there too. Boyfriend/weekend-type. I also tried to find something I've been looking for a while a now: a long, white, light-weight scarf.
Gap: A LONG, WHITE, LIGHT WEIGHT SCARF! I found it. And was happy<3
Old Navy: I decided to give it a second chance. I felt like there was something I hadn't noticed before. And I was right. Another type of boyfriend/weekend jeans. I felt like a freak though. I was caught in the middle of the sizes. The bigger one fell off when I made a tiny jump(that kinda jump that you can make in a dressing room without drawing a lot of attention to yourself) And the smaller one was juuuuust a little bit tight. I chose the smaller size.
Some sportshop: Nothing. I just wandered around the SDSU-shirts.
San Diego-shop: Nothing. I couldn't decide with hoodie to buy. Or which T-shirt to buy. I'll need to show-off a little when I'm in F-land, so I need a hoodie with big SAN DIEGO-text. (Okay and also because it's damn freezing over there!)
4. Fenton Parkway: IKEA: SWEEEEEETS!

So that was my shopping about until 7pm. About at 7pm I met Maja and Selma at Starbucks.
5. Santee: Starbucks: Hot chocolate.
We just chatted and drank our drinks there.
After a while we decided to go to KOHLS. (This is where I told myself that I'm worse than BROKE! So no more shopping for me!)
6. Santee: KOHLS: well, ehm.. a bag! Well, on Sunday I went to ALDO and I saw an AMAZING red(not my usual color!) handbag and I fell in love immediately! It was $29,90. But I told myself NO NO NO. I dont have other red things to wear with it anyways so maybe it was a good decision. And now that I look at my new bag, I'm sure it was good decision.


Here's the scarf. A piece of true love<3 GAP - $8.99


The jeans. They can be rolled up or down. Old Navy - $33.77 (got an extra 10% discount coz I mentioned the Hispanic Celebration -flyer I saw in the dressing room)




The bag. I wanted a liiiiittle bit bigger bag but that was too good to miss out. I wanted it earlier and then it was $68. Which was too much, since I didn't really need a bag back then.. Now I do. I'm flying soon. KOHLS - $14.79



Here r the goodies! Thank god for IKEA! Those Bilar-candies are soooo good. Usually I get them only when I go to a cruise between Sweden-land and F-land! And Marabou, well.. They r very OK, now that there's no Fazer available!

Oh, almost forgot to mention: I bought 2 jackets(Or well, maybe more like moto jackets..) for 10bucks!! From We Seal. The had this crazy offer once again: buy one and get one for 1c!. The other one is like dark grey, button and a zipper under them, short sleeves. The other is satin-like texture, a zipper and a belt. The zipper and the buckle of the belt are "golden". I dont have any pics to post. The darkgrey one is available in H&M too..for $29.90! I tried to find their pics on Wet Seals site. Didnt find any.

By the way I now _totally_ understand why those effin' rich housewives have to go to a manicure so often! Shopping all day SERIOUSLY killed my nails! This morning my nails looked pretty ok, but now.. ehm.. they look very bad. Not going to post any pics of them though! That would be too disgusting! They all look so damaged. I need to do something to them tomorrow. Maybe after another The Horrible-moment. Yes, I'm gonna go through my clothes/stuff again.
Let's see how many trashbags I'll end up donating. Maybe I'll leave one MAYBE-bag, just in case I come here in the end of this year. Maybe.
Now I really need to go to wash my face and brush my teeth. I dont wanna waste my time here anymore by sleeping until 10am. I can sleep on the plane.. Or in F-land. There's nothing else to do anyway.. And if someone complains about my sleeping, I can always tell them that I have a jetlag!

ps. The Kanye West-thingie in VMAs. Wow. I knew the guy was a douche but really!? At least he has apologized a couple of times already.. But still. I still like him though. He's an idiot, but I like him. I usually like idiots. (Sometimes my own actions have made the guys look like idiots..maybe)
pps. He and LADY GAGA are coming here to SD.. AND I WONT BE HERE THEN. FUUUUUUCK! And Britney will come here 24th. The day I arrive to F-land.
ppps. I saw Inglorious Bastards. I have no words to describe it very specificly, but lets just say: A MASTERPIECE! Only a couple of scenes were predictable. The story was impeccable. Tarantino is a genius. Go. See. It.

good nite!

Candies.

Once again not so irrelevant title, since I'm gonna dedicate this post for the candies!
I love them. I love all sorts of candies.
The candies I've bought in Estonia,France,Monaco, Singapore, Malaysia and Italy were pretty ok. Like normal american brand candies, like KitKat, M&M, Snickers and Mars. But here, in the womb of M&M's.. the candies just suck! Twizzlers are pretty okay usually. Most chocolates taste, well, just bad or they don't have a taste of any kind!! Making bad candies should be against the law! I've a pretty strong relationship with Sweet Factory though.. There I can at least decide what kind of bad candies I want, and how much. Usually I go with pineapple jelly beans, black licorice, sour gummi poppers, Haribo-like gummi frogs, chocolate buttons, tiny bananas and Good and Plenty's.
(those who don't know what Sweet Factory is: http://www.sweetfactory.com/)



Not exactly the cheapest candies on the market..But not my fault that it's right next to my movie theatre!
So, the candies here suck. BUT. Not in F-land! That's maybe the ONLY thing that's (probably) permanently better there than it's here! Fazer forever. And it's not just that I haven't gotten any finnish candies for almost a year. Oh no, my dears.. I've gotten plenty of them! Thanks to the traditional mail. And Mom. And Xmas trip to F-land. So I had have chances to compare.
I used to eat candies in F-land quite a lot actually. Hah-hah, that explains a lot really.. Thank god, I had to ride my bicycle to school and back 5days a week! So about 13kms everyday. Oooh, how I miss my bicycle. I really hope no one has touched it..Like my stereos. Mom promised that I'll get them back though..But if something bad has happened to them while my sister had them, I'll just flip I think. Like when I let my lil sis and bro use my laptop. They had it for 40minutes and when I got it back, there was a HUUUUGE scratch on it!! But back to candies.
I sometimes had these crazy phases: like Fazer Lontoon rae-chocolate-phase, when I ate it EVERY FUCKING DAY! And not just one bite. More like one hundred bites. And Pätkis-phase. Or Sisu-phase. Or gummibear-phase. Or Lontoon rae-phase. Or salmiakki-phase. To honor those phases, I'm gonna post one pic of those phases. It dates back to 22/06/07. So over 2 years ago:

Here, I don't have anything like Pätkis-phase..or Fazer's Lontoon rae-chocolate phase! I can't have any candy phases here! There's no candy that is so good that I could eat it every day!!
Okay.. actually..There's ONE candy I could eat every single minute of my life though. And that's eyecandy! And here..is plenty of that! For those who are not here in San Diego. What do you see when you look out of window? Nothing special? You can hate me now: I see palmtrees, mountains(in finnish standards they are mountains ;)),the sun(or the moon/stars if I look out during the nighttime..)..and eyecandies. Yeah, shirtless guys prancing around with their skateboards. So I guess this makes the situation pretty even, or maybe 2-1 for the USA. Unfortunately I won't post any pictures of those candies. But believe me when I say: I don't need to go to Sweet Factory so often, because I have a window with a view straight into the Candy Shop..
