those of you who know me in real life know that i'm rather a tomboish girl. i choose flats over heels and hardly ever put any make up. on top of that, i've never been friends with many girls and i haven't had girlfriends. until recent. it is new experience to me to have gf's with whom i can have make up evenings, cook delicious food, giggle about cute boys, take photos in shopping bag and sing the most cheesy songs in karaoke room. i only wish they would live closer. i can't complain though as from tomorrow we all three will live in neighboring countries :)

august 4th, wandering in seoul with S on a hot and humid afternoon.
in korea it is easy to take pictures. almost everyone carries some sort of camera and people don't really care why and what you're taking picture of. it is sort of like a trend over there. in finland, on the other hand, it is the opposite. whenever i pull my camera out to take a photo i feel like everyone around stares as if photography was reserved only for tourists. i wonder why it is like that.

i'm back in finland. the last two weeks in south korea have been amazing. i'm tired and i have no power to unpack.

i have two weeks before academic year starts. i should get my pens and notebooks ready :)

i've always liked august. the heat is calming down and days are more enjoyable. the evenings are still warm yet you can feel that autumn is coming soon. i have two weeks left in korea. i will make sure to get best out of them.
