Spring & Casual

This has been a really hectic week for me, but I don't feel stressed out at all. Why? I spent the most amazing and relaxing day with my friends :) We just ate and later enjoyed the beautiful weather. Most of us were fooling around, but I decided to take it easy and just lay listening to good music and enjoyed the sun. When I got home, I decided to go out again. This time, I had my own camera and got some really cool shots! I feel so good and refreshed.

Loiste festival - dance!

This whole weekend I've been super busy viewing the Loiste festival performances (hint hint: part of my job in the event I'm producing). I was amazed by how much talent these kids have and how hard they work on their performances. I had no idea there were so many so talented kids in this area.

Loiste festival is a cultural event for youngsters. Every year it has a different theme, and this year it was dance. Anyone can sign up. All you have to be is under 20. You get to perform and get feedback from professional dancers. It's not a competition, but the pros watching pick the most interesting performances that get to perform at a much bigger national event. So cool! This should be bigger. More people should know about this. I saw so many so talented kids that were so excited to perform and show what they can do. I'm so excited about the event I'm going to help put together. It offers these same young kids a chance to perform again for a different audience. Let's see how it works out!

 This whole Loiste got me really inspired so I tried sketching a little ballerina. I really like the hair :3

Beautiful mornings

This week was a lot easier on me. I did have two viola classes, but they went really well :]
I don't have much to say, so I'll let these pictures do the talking.

Concerts and parties...

So far this week has been really busy. I've had lots of due dates, school stuff and three concerts, of which in one I was performing. We arranged an amazing surprise party for my friend and went downhill skiing with the entire eight grade. I got to dress up a lot which was fun, but it also made scheduling hard. I also lost my calendar, which did not help.

Despite being in a hurry, I tried to find myself time to relax. I've done lots of running, walking and photographing. My friends blog (sibubla.blogspot.fi) really reminded me that recharging is important.  I've been sleeping better too. I feel better.

My new obsession

Exercise. It's a fairly new one, but I'm loving it.
Beginning of February, I started kickboxing. I've been wanting to take on sports for a long time, but I haven't really had the time or chance. Of course, I was also a bit nervous starting a whole new hobby I might not be good at. In the past, most of my hobbies have been a pain. I've liked them, but I've never loved exercise. I've done swimming, dancing, karate and gymnastics. I haven't really been able to enjoy just the feeling after a workout or actually succeeding. This was a big leap for me, considering I would start midway course and three times a week.

When I went there all of my nervousness vanished and I just enjoyed the sweating, punching and kicking. I had been doing some ab and thigh workouts so I wasn't completely hopeless. I love every day, because either I have kickboxing, or I'm having it the next day. I love this hobby so much. I really hope it stays that way, and I can't wait to actually fight someone. Man, I'm so excited. I've also started running. I run almost everyday, and it's awesome. It feels so good with the darkness, fresh air, and my amazing Spotify playlist.

I also made a little drawing of a girl after a workout :)
