On April 30th, it was time to party for Wappu People start drinking and gathering in Helsinki from today. We hang out with Mika and Sebastian. Both are having the first Wappu this year. It was nice to be with them and drinking together. Thank you for being with us

The weather was very nice

yay~~

Kaivopuisuto “do you see how many ppl are there?”

Do you see a big Mexican sombrero!?

Gosh! He broke his nose

Sombrero was very popular. Everyone wanted to try it on. hahaha

Of course, I tried it on….

Of course, next day I was very tired and a little bit hangover for me. BUT I really enjoyed Vappu this time

Lucky cha cha cha report

I have been lucky this week. We were drinking at Dante’s from 9pm to 1:30. When we were about to leave that place, doorman asked me ” are you leaving already??Why??”. I didn’t expect to get that question…Then he gave us two FREE beer coupons OH MY GOSH!!! It was my first time to get free coupons at the metal bar!!! That was so COOL and SWEET, hahaha. Then we stayed at Dante’s a little bit more, of course!

Today, I was feeling going shopping to Helsinki. As uaual, it is not so exciting because the city is small. My favorite shops are H&M at Forum and Zara. I found very pretty tops and one items at zara. I am still keeping my coupon, hihihi.

Then, I visited to Mac at Stockmann department store. There was my favorite salesperson. So I asked her helps to find good products. Unfortunately, two products I wanted were sold out…SO I got samples. These are my first samples in Finland yay yay~~.

These are MAC PREP+PRIME “Skin refined zone treatment soint” I bought today. The little two container were sample of Studio fix fluid NC40 and Face Protect SPF 50. Next Monday, the new collection “Rose Romance” will be in Finland!! I have to check out again!

 I have Mac liquid foundation on my face. Can you see the difference?

Now, we are having a Pre-Wappu party. At night,  we went to Masahi’s good-bye party first. Many of exchange students are leaving here around June…The Otaniemi village will be empty again…Next party was Metal club Moka party. It was fun to hung out for a while. Then we went to another party. I didn’t take a photo because it was just good time, hahaha

with Patricia

Last night, we joined the Pre Pre Wappu party in Otaniemi. Juha Sørensen was also there and I have’t see him for a while. It was nice to see him again.

 My face looks tired though…

For sale mania, life in Finland is not exciting…not so many sales are going on here….Honestly, it is boring…When I was in the United States, I really liked to read the newspaper and Metro paper because of coupons…People love the sales and discount same as in Japan. I like to read the advertisments in Japan. I don’t know whether I just don’t notice those because of written in Finnish or not.

BUT on Sunday I bought the Finnish Elle magazine. The finnish version is so thin and few fashion information, compared to other countries Elle. My Favorite Favorites Elle is the Spanish version. They have always additional stuff and cosmetic sample! I got free cute bag and tons of cosmetic samples) and at last I got my first coupon in FInland, yay~~ That was really exciting to me. 20% off at H&M

my first coupon in Finland

In addition, I have another good news. I am currently having two laptops. My department is giving me one mini-laptop. So I have Windows and Linux machine now I am quite happy that my university gave me a chance to do that. Thank you, University of Helsinki. Here is my laptop family

I visited to the 3rd biggest city in FInland, Tampre. Because we wanted to see Blaze Bayley again, hahaha. We were there only 3 hours but the city is very small so…I think I saw everything already =) This time we invited my friend, Sanae-chan to come with us. And we went by Aki’s  car.

We went to the heavy metal concert, “Blaze Bayley“. The vocal is the former singer of Iron Maiden. The concert was very very cool. His singing and song was exciting. This concert was in Helsinki, but we really liked it. We might go to the same concert in Tampere! Tampere is a different city in FInland and takes 1.5 hours by car from Helsinki!
