Piggy in Helsinki

Piggy is liking the view, in Helsinki.. He wants to check out the balcony..


"OMG, it's so different from home.."


Piggy enjoys the summery weather..

 
The Ark is full, so Piggy misses the cruise, but he soon forgets the disappointment as he finds a pretty Easter chick whom he starts chatting up..


Love is in the air....... =)

Just when I posted loads of them, there's a new one!

You Are 26% Open

You are open at times, but generally you don't let many people into your inner world. It's possible that you have a friend or two that knows you well. But to most people, you are a total mystery.

How Open Are You?

There's only one person who could ever read all pages, if they wanted to. It takes 100% trust, and I've only ever met one person who's gained that. Generally, I don't trust people. People suck.

Lots of Blogthings again..

Your Love is Based on Affection

Your need for love is very primal and basic. You can't imagine living without love. And for you, love is something that's best expressed through touch. You're always up for a hug or a cuddle. And you feel a bit rejected when you don't get enough affection. Whether you're sharing a blanket or sharing an order of fries, you thrive when you're close to the person you love. Why your love can last: You express your love freely and frequently Why your love can fail: You can come off as clingy, and this freaks people out

What Is Your Love Based On?

You Are an Individual

You are a master of logic and reasoning. Emotions don't color your decisions. You thrive on action and always want to be moving forward. A lot of your action is internal. You have some loner tendencies - and you're totally okay with that. You like to do your own thing. You've always felt a little different from everyone else. You are a true individual.

You Are Thoughtful and Happy

You have an optimistic outlook. When troubles come your way, you try to see how you will grow and learn from them. You feel like you can't depend on anyone but yourself in this world. You feel quite alone sometimes. You feel exhausted about your past and those you have loved. It's been a long, hard road. You succeed by pacing yourself. You realize that all that matters is the long run, and you aim to persevere.

You Are A Thoughtful Idealist

You are a bit tentative when it comes to new experiences. You have to push yourself to try new things, but once you do, you love the adventure. You don't spend a lot of time thinking about how people see you. You're kind of scared to know what they think. You are a very romantic person. You can't help but see the world as it should be. Right now, stress occasionally makes you feel trapped in your life. You usually have a clear perspective on things though! Overall, your life is calm and steady. Not much stirs you, and each day is full of joy. You aren't optimistic about the future. You worry about what will happen to the world and if we'll be able to clean up the messes we've made.

We went to Virkkukoukkunen (in Imatra), which is one of my favourite shops. I couldn't afford to buy anything, though, but it was nice to browse..


We ate at ABC Karjalanportti (=one of those petrol station / restaurant / shop places..), and their mushroom soup was divine! So were the bread rolls, mmmm..

Onion tart.. My mam always makes a million different types of food on the same day, so when you have a little bit of each, you're painfully stuffed.

Mam gave me some more stamps to sell..


My stepdad went fishing, and then he nuked loads of Baltic herring.. It was really nice!
