Crazy Plant Lady

Something happened. I became interested in plants and gardening, like for real. I guess it started when I got flower pots for my birthday cat2 Then I also got a calamondin tree which really got me in the mood for growing something.
I visited my parents and found an overgrown spot in their backyard that used to be for plants. Now that it’s getting warmer it’s totally the right time for gardening! So I took care of the spot and planted some seeds too! It was hard work but fun. I hope something grows there ^^
I wasn’t satisfied with only having a project like this away from home, so I bought a mini greenhouse for my living room window too heart13

plant1Done! I planted carrot and bean seeds~

I haven’t decided what to grow in there.
I got this small plant in the meantime~

Speaking of warmer weather, I have already participated in three BBQs… And a lot more to come I hope! It’s true what they say about Scandinavians and warmer weather ➡ getting all obsessed with BBQ.
But yeah, cold weather sucks so let’s enjoy now!

My phone is always full of food photos and it’s getting a bit weird, uuhh wtf ^^ Instagram disease… So I’m gonna resist posting BBQ pics this time! However me, Nathalie and Erika managed to snap some photos of us haha so I’ll just put them here instead~

New hair + BBQ in paradise!

I suddenly felt like having darker hair ohohoo ^^ I had blonde hair for so long kirakira
After a couple of washes it has turned a bit lighter. But I’m still loving it anyway!
(I also tried out a new lipstick from Viva la Diva in the first pic heart5)

My friend Amanda has moved out to the cutest little cottage in the archipelago of Stockholm. Her home is surrounded by beautiful nature, lots of water and fresh air – LOVE IT! She invited me and others over to her new place for a Barbeque party alpaca2
Because it’s in such a nice location of course it took a while to get there. We went for a bus ride that lasted for 1,5 hours! Might as well have a drink during the trip! Actually there were two random old men who also had a beer onboard hahaha

qw6So cozy cat_love

We BBQd until the sun went down, then went into her house instead! We had such a good time so no one really wanted to leave this cute location~ But then it was time to take the last bus home to the city ^^ we started the party quite early so the last bus at 10PM didn’t feel that early after all! HOWEVER… on the bus ride back we started thinking about an afterparty haha, so we called some people who was partying in the city and we joined forces! Yay! It was a great night heart6

Spring & Scones!

For me, every Spring feels like a new beginning heart11 I get a lot of energy from the sun that’s finally back from hiding for several months ^^ We’re all waking up from hibernation mode… dog

Me and Nathalie got together a couple of days ago to enjoy the nice weather. I got to see her new apartment finally! I’m jealous of it, it’s super cozy. We also went for fika lunch at a café that served suuuuch good scones! You could choose from different kinds of bread and toppings, yum yum yum.

scones1scones2I chose cream cheese + cheese (I love cheese, okay? Lol) but then I snatched
some jam from Nathalie too ’cause it looked so good. And, of course it was!

Makeup ^^ Umm I have total APPLE MANIA at the moment btw. One a day!

Cute thermos + New header

I went on an impulse shopping spree yesterday at Åhléns department store.
My goal was to buy an eyeliner but of course I couldn’t resist walking around looking at all kinds of things. I ended up buying things from three different sections bunny1 This happens every time… but I needed it all so it was ok!
I wanted to buy a thermos mug but it turns out those aren’t as good as the real thermos because of the lid? Oh well :_: So I was tempted to buy one of these instead…

IMG_9774
Cute or what…? I’m still thinking about getting one!

And another thing… I managed to update my blog, or well WordPress related things. I can see my visitor stats easier now supermario I also added a new header to my site, updated the “Who is Sofia?” section and added a favicon shaped as Rilakkuma favicon Just some small stuff that I had postponed a bit too long!

またねぇぇぇ~

A small gathering + New nails!

It was Wednesday and I felt a little lonely after being sick at home for a week. So I invited some people over to have a small party ^^ Alex was visiting here from Finland again, great to hang out with him twice in this short time 





Mostly derpy pictures because those are more fun 

And by the way I got new nails again! Nathalie was going to do her Nail Therapist graduation exam and she asked me to be her model. It’s becoming more and more official that I’m her model for nails heehee
The result: Gel extention, French style!
Love them. The shape looks good with the rest of my fingers/hands, I think.

Today’s Monday and I had a pretty useless day at school ^^ My teammate was absent so I went home to do… well, nothing too fabulous: I did some laundry, cleaned the whole apartment, prepared dinner, then I watched a couple of 2NE1 TV episodes  Now I’m gonna watch Game of Thrones, maybe play some video games.
I needed a day like this one, ’cause my weekend was stressful! And I haven’t gotten rid of my flu so resting is important (my PT friend says I’m not allowed to exercise yet, which I understand because I feel dizzy from just walking up a set of stairs now).

Meeting the gals ♡

We had a Spring get-together for ギャル and called it “Gals and Sh★t”! We try to organize these events now and then. Although it’s less about the style and more about having fun and hanging out with new and old friends, really 

The whole thing started on a Friday and ended on a Monday kind of ^^  People came from other countries too which was AWESOME! We did different stuff like eating, drinking, dancing at a club, singing at a karaoke place… a lot of fun  I got to meet new people and hang out more with the ones I recently got to know!
The Friday was mostly for everyone to meet each other, and not to mention take group photos with our photographer friend Hampus  After a stop at Max hamburger restaurant (YUM), some of us went to party when night came! I split up with the girls who went to play pool, to have drinks with an old friend ♥






Namedropping time!
Daniel, me, Eivind, Marcus, Alex, Tuomas, Heikki, Xiaoting,
Imke, Erika, Juuju, Kimii, Ingvild, Marijela and Lydia!

The next day, Saturday, I went to my parents place for Easter lunch! Nothing special but really nice food nomnom. Then I went to meet up the gang to go for karaoke + food at a place called Sakura. The karaoke quickly turned wild because we had a big room with a bar of our own… OMG  After that we went to a club (Ace) to dance and continue the party! When the club closed, some of us went to afterparty… it was a long night. I went to bed at 06:30 
On Sunday I was KIND OF tired after the long night so I just stayed inside. My relatives came by to celebrate my birthday real quick but that was it ^^ And on Monday it was time to party again. Eheh these days were so busy! Loved it.


I changed to nude tights after this, which looked better. But ofc no photo…

Here’s some people who weren’t in the first group photo! 
A bit hard to see but next to Tuomas is Seike, Johan, me and Line

I didn’t have that many acceptable pics because we were always at dark places lol ^^ But anyway, I’m still a bit high from happiness after meeting everyone this weekend, we had a great time and as usual I got to meet many new cool friends! I love these events. Great job Lydia and Kimii who planned the weekend  Woooo!

Housewarming & Birthday ☼

It’s been three months since me and my man moved in together. It was about time to have a housewarming of some sort, and since my birthday was coming up why not combine the two and have a partee~ey?
My current guilty pleasure tv show is Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The housewives always arrange events where there’s light snacks and foods so I felt like preparing something similar with the party I was going to host! Light version compared to what the housewives (ok wait, their chefs) are doing, but still fun to do ^^
Many people came to check our place out and we had a good night 

Tiger (chocolate + vanilla) cupcakes with lemon frosting and sprinkles.
I made small bitesize snacks with avocado mixture + seafood mixture too. Yum!

Beautiful photos were taken with Erika and Marcus   

The next day was my actual birthday and I spent it saying hello to horses and having dinner at an izakaya style restaurant. I’ve written about it before, it’s Blue Light Yokohama. You order several small dishes and split them instead of the traditional one per person. The food was great. Uh no it was perfect
I took the opportunity to eat many vegetarian choices because…  Hmm well I could talk about my opinions in the subject for a long time so let’s skip it for now ^^ Maybe I wouldn’t be full-time vegetarian but at least part-time? I’m a big fan of greens as it is, it’s good for your body, so why not, right?


Hello horsie! Ignore my stupid face ^^’


Avocado sashimi salad and grilled squash (and 100 more dishes) 

A week later it was time for my family and relatives to celebrate my birthday which was really cool since I got to invite them formally for the first time. Felt great to take that step into adulthood. I got some gifts, we had sweets + coffee and hung out. The regular stuff.

Here’s one birthday gift I really liked: Hooded sweater! Dunno if I ever told you but I’m 174cm tall. I’m always on the lookout for long shirts/sweaters because shorter (or “normal”) ones often looks weird on me. This one has the perfect length, I can wear it with just leggings if I want without showing my butt. Thank you for understanding, parents  


My current favorite color, I could match it with my shoes (and the rest of my apartment hoho)

I had a very happy birthday, I’m sooo thankful for all the love I received.
Now I’m 24 years old but I still feel younger… age is just a number anyway!

Gaming + Haircut

I wanted to embrace my gamer side a bit more. I neglected it for sooooo long, other things took up my time :_: So! This weekend I’ve been playing video games like a freak   I’m playing Pokémon SoulSilver and The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages as well as Oracle of Seasons. A friend and I had a gaming night on Friday and after that I’ve been playing non stop all weekend ^^ Feels great, I really needed it!
I also cut my hair (nothing special but it was needed) + I bleached the ends. My current project is to let my natural hair color grow for a bit to make a gradient.


Not a very dramatic gradient yet :(

Maybe you already knew about my healthy lifestyle. I wish I had more friends who share this interest  You’ll feel so much better in body and mind. I recommend everyone to eat cleaner and exercise more~ Find healthier snacks, eat less carbs, do cardio workout a couple of times a week. Why not try it?

Red Lip

I got a lipstick from my man  It’s MAC “Korean Candy” and it’s perfect. I have never owned a lipstick other than nude ones before. I never felt brave enough to buy my own red lipstick actually but now I got the chance to try it…

It’s a bit of an orange red. Loooooove! This is a bit more “cool” or “playful” than the typical “mature” or “sophisticated” red lipstick I think, so I like it. More ME. KW really knows me ❤ After trying a vibrant lipstick like this, maybe I’ll get some other shade too in the future, who knows ^^

Today was such a typical day I’m not even gonna tell you what I did  I love it when things go as they should~
My birthday is next week so I’m trying to figure out what I’d like as a gift. I’m browsing through stores for things for the apartment mostly. And Jeremy Scott x Adidas shoes…

Outfits and some new things~

My blog was down, again, but it’s up and running again so I thought I’d update!
Today was a good day with sun! Still cold winds but hey. First I was studying at a café, then I went to the gym for some dancing  My favorite day of the week.
Last week I went shopping! I bought so many useful stuff. Many clothes and a bikini for Summer ^^ I also got new nails at Nathalie’s salon ♥ I have been updating my Instagram quite a lot so some pics are from there~ It’s just so easy so update from there isn’t it?

From today. Looking cheerful. I got these sunglasses at Shibuya 109 last year ^^

I wanted a more sophisticated look for my nails this time so I chose gray (almost olive!) with a white cross. Also: new studded denim shorts (from Cubus). LOVE both.


It’s been a couple of weeks now but I went on a boat cruise with a huuuge gang of friends. Basically 23 hours of P A R T Y H A R D  It was so much fun, really crazy, not to mention I got to stock up on my alcohol inventory. It’s cheaper onboard the boat thanks to taxfree shop (Swedish alcohol tax is ridiculous). Now I won’t have to go to the liquor stores here in a year, honestly… Uh and no, I’m not gonna show a photo 
I was a bit inspired by Guri and Yumachi lately so somehow my look reminded me a bit of a mix between them. Only kind of, but yeah… ^^’


Accesories are all from Claire’s except long cross necklace which is from tutuHA.
Top from KappAhl, shorts from H&M, shoes from Din Sko.

… Okay I think that’s it for now! バイバイ★
