"Can't sleep when the sun goes down, just want to feel like we're together..."

Hello my dear friends!
I had a engagement session 2 days ago and here's a little sneek peek of it.
Yup, Summer is THE BEST TIME to shoot over here...perfection!

"You know you're in love when you don't want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams."

"Let your heart go where the wind takes it Pure like the raindrops of time..."

"What you need to know about the past is that no matter what has happened, it has all worked together to bring you to this very moment. And this is the moment you can choose to make everything new. Right now."

...And that is why I still went back to my past and cut my heair back the way it was...

Love,

PaperHeart




While we have oceans
Rivers that still bring us life
Reasons to live in the moment
Hold onto your time

Let your heart go where the wind takes it
Pure like the raindrops of time
Follow the path where it takes you
Straight down the line

Ladies and Gentlemen
Surely we're here in mind
Watching our spirits dance on the
On the backs of our lives

How can one sit back and dream it
I'd have no peace in my life
Climbing these walls in an hourglass
Prized in our strife

And I have seen worlds filled with wonder
Lost on my own lonely mile

"Gotta find the light to guide me along, Gotta find a way back home..."

I had a date with my friends sun and light today. We haven't played like this together in a looong time and I dare say I miss Mrs. Summer who usually tags along with them. Mr Winter has been around a bit too long, making us freeze and get the flu, so we left him outside on his own this time. Thank goodness we found things inside to play around with. Sun was having so much fun going through all the objects I placed on the table and as usual I tried my best to capture the colours light made me see.

So here's what I managed to get on my camera before light and summer hid away...

Light gives of itself freely, filling all available space. It does not seek anything in return; it asks not whether you are friend or foe. It gives of itself and is not thereby diminished.

Love,
PaperHeart

"Gotta find a way to get home strong

Gotta find a way back home.

Gotta find the light to guide me along

Gotta find a way back home.

Running for your life won't get you so far

Running for your life so far

The loving in your eye that holds you alive

Gotta find a way back home"

"only the young can break away break away..."

"and when you sense a faint potentiality for happiness after such dark times you must grab onto the ankles of that happiness and not let go until it drags you face-first out of the dirt-this is not selfishness, but obligation. You were given life; it is your duty to find something beautiful within life no matter how slight."

"it's gonna take a lotta love Or we won't work out right..."

It's actually time for me to go to bed,
but inspiration always strikes at 11pm and seems to go till 3am with me (well right now it's "only" 1 am so I'm pretty early with my bed time)...what's up with that?
Anywayyyys, these are all photos I took yesterday of my friends lovely, little, adoable, heart melting baby girl. Once again JUST few...rest will come when they come.
Ok..I really should go to bed I just fell a sleep while writing this...not good, not good at all.

"It's gonna take a lotta love
To change the way things are
It's gonna take a lotta love
Or we won't get too far
So if you're looking my direction
And we don't see eye to eye
My heart needs protection
And so do I"

"Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body. "

Yeah I'm going to bed...I'll update more tomorrow...

"You and I just cant say goodbye Every time we do, well Its just another lie..."

Heyheyheyyy!
Yes I'm back from my trip (well came back 2 weeks ago)
LOOOVED every part of the trip (except that one day when I had to stand outside in the cold for 2 hours just cause I was standing at the wrong bus stop...and even that wasn't "too" bad in the end when cute guys kept stopping by and talking to me and asking to come on over hahah) I took quite a lot of pictures on that trip and still haven't gone thought them. Main point though is that I enjoyed my life in the states VERY much...maybe bit too much. So much that it made me wanna move there. Aaaargh! why can't I be the type of person who's just happy where she is? Why do I always wanna move around and go here and there and experience different cultures and just see everything!
Oh well...
Anyways...Here's fall inspired pictures I took before I left.

"Bittersweet October. The mellow, messy, leaf-kicking, perfect pause between the opposing miseries of summer and winter."

"You were given life; it's your duty (and also your entitlement as a human

being) to find something beautiful within life, no matter how slight."

And of course music yet again!
Something chill and interesting:



Then a song that I got from my friend and I'm utterly in love with:

And now I'm gonna sound cheesy but...
remember to enjoy life people!

PaperHeart

"All things grow, all things grow..."

Something that I "doodled" today with my 0.20mm and 0.20mm permanent markers.

I felt like I needed to draw.
I've had a break with that again and I should never EVER loose it.
I could feel that I was rusty and that's not a good thing. Never ever let the things you're good at or enjoy the most in this life get forgotten. Cause if you forget the things you love, the things you enjoy and the things that brighten your life, then what are you left with? The boring same old same old days...always remember to practise and work on the things you're not so talented with as well as with the ones that you are.
Never assume that you're good at something!

Love,
PaperHeart

"You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. "

"I came in this way and here now I'll stay..."

Like I said, the summer time is here...
aaaand...
I've been to the beach this weekend almost everyday all day just swimming and sleeping and having good time with friends...just letting the vitamin D soak in and let me tell you, there's nothing like it. I HATE WINTER! I seriously HATE IT! I was made for a warm hot country and instead of ended in a land where there's summer only for a couple of months and the rest of the year you have to live in perfect darkness.
Don't get me wrong, there are some good things about winter and I love Christmas and new year, but when there's sun this much only 2 months in a year, you sort of start to hate the rest of the year. Atleast that's what I think.

Soo...anyways, I took some pictures this weekend at the beach and since they havea lovely summer wibe in them, I thought I'd share some...

Summer afternoon - summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language. ~Henry James

Then followed that beautiful season... Summer....
Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; and the landscape
Lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

P.s. Perfect summer jam, my sister loves this song...and since she played it quite a lot at one point, it now reminds me of summer too :)



And then a song I've been listening to quite a lot lately...don't know why...I just like it...

"In the morning I’ll make you breakfast ..."

'Mornings' is the name of this selfportrait and I think it explains itself.

Each morning
Is the birth
Of a new
Opportunity.




"...In the morning I’ll make you breakfast
In the evening I’ll warm the bed
And I’ll always be happy to kiss you
Promise I’ll never get sad.."

"What did you learn?...my back is soaking from the chase..."

One of the photoshoot photos I took for the stylist thingie


Frustration is a common emotional response to opposition. Related to anger and disappointment, it arises from the perceived resistance to the fulfillment of individual will. The greater the obstruction, and the greater the will, the more the frustration is likely to be. Causes of frustration may be internal or external. In people, internal frustration may arise from challenges in fulfilling personal goals and desires, instinctual drives and needs, or dealing with perceived deficiencies, such as a lack of confidence or fear of social situations. Conflict can also be an internal source of frustration; when one has competing goals that interfere with one another, it can create cognitive dissonance. External causes of frustration involve conditions outside an individual, such as a blocked road or a difficult task. While coping with frustration, some individuals may engage in passive-aggressive behavior, making it difficult to identify the original cause(s) of their frustration, as the responses are indirect. A more direct, and common response, is a propensity towards aggression.

You know what I'm feeling right now??
What? How...How did you know?
Yes, I'm feeling that very thing called frustration and let me tell you IT.SUCKS.BIG.TIME!
I'm not going anywhere...still just standing still like I'd never even tried to do anything in my life. Just going to the same job everyday, coming home to...nothing...and then doing the same thing again tomorrow. The things I've reached out for and tried to grab, have slipped though my fingers and now seem even further ahead than they ever were. Yes, frustration is the word and I couldn't have explained it better than what it says in wikipedia.
I just wish for this one dream and this one dream only (well ok It would be nice to get myself a man on the side and maybe a nice home in the future...but you know secretly we all wish for that, so it's given :P) It just has felt like lately I've gotten nothing but poo poo poo poo on me and Finland is losing its charm on my eyes again. I need a change. And I need it real bad!
Well atleast the sun is out more now than on anyother time of the year (well not today...today it's raining hehee) Sun always makes me feel better and makes me shine even though I can feel the poo running down my neck.
Yeah...so I guess I have nothing else to say today...except remember this kids,
FRUSTRATION SUCKS!

Love,
PaperHeart

"Seems like all I really was doing was waiting for you..."

Sooooo the wedding season has started, and what better way to start it than with my little sister's wedding photos!
Yup that gorgeous creature is my sister with her handsome new husband :)
I was a wreck at this wedding (along side with my big sister :D hahah) we had a LOT to do and so little time. We designed and drew and planned and decorated and andandandandandandnad...just did a lot!
Thank goodness for having time to take the photos though. I thought we'd never have time for them and time for my ideas. Well my original plans/ideas didn't work out to be honest, (except the ginger beer ones) but I'm still pleased with these.
After all the hastle and running around and dark coulds that threatened us, it was a beautiful wedding in the end...and we got the sun!
Soooo, here's just few of the photos, still have some to go though and I promised not to post everything, but got the green light from them to show some :)
Here you are...hope you enjoy them!

ok, so I have to explain the ginger beer photos a bit. This Mr here looo-o-oooves this drink and so I decided to dedicate few of the photos for ginger beer haha

It was so much fun walking around the city with a bride and a groome. People couldn't stop staring (except in this photo) and smiling...everyone smiled when they saw them! aaaw!

running back to the car!

"I dreamed of a wedding of elaborate elegance,
A church filled with family and friends.
I asked him what kind of a wedding he wished for,
He said one that would make me his wife."

So that's that...a little preview of a lovely couple!

"...From this moment on I know
Exactly where my life will go
Seems that all I really was doing
Was waiting for love..."

"It might have been a while Since you've been loved..."

Well EXCELLENT morning to everyone on this fine beautiful sunny warmish day!
I feel quite happy today for some reason. I'm guessing it's the weather and the fact that sun is shining today. Although yesterday was horrible, raining raining and raining and I thought it wound ruin my day, BUT I was wrong cause I still go to do all the things I planned and then some.
Speacing of then somes, this is the then some I did :) I was bored at home and decided to see how my idea would turn out in reality. And I was not supposed to use myself as a model...but eh, when your bored your bored and when you have no one else around you yourself are the next best thing I guess. Funny how when ever I havea photo of myself it's usually out of boredom :D hahah
Soooo...I "glued" some hearts on my lips, posed infront of the camera, photoshopped a bit more than usual...and vóla!
I do like it how my lips look very juicy...like those hearts were smushy candy. Don't you think?
Oh and I just had to add those creepy eyes. Reminds me of husky dogs. (or what ever they are called) And yes I am really pale and white in real life...but not THIS pale :P
Anyways, that's it for today!
Enjoy if you can!
and most defenetly try to enjoy the day no matter what the weather is like! :)

P.s. as usual, I LOVE THIS SONG! and the LYRICS!




"It might have been a while
Since you've been loved
Like you should be loved

It might have been a while
Since you've been kissed
Like you should be kissed

In tender loving arms
Might be something you miss

Well summerbreeze is blowing through your window
And summerbreeze is blowing through your hair
And something in your eyes that you cannot disguise
Don't tell me it ain't there

It might have been a while
Since you've been loved
By one who really loves you

It might have been a while
Since you could trust
That someone really cares

When people like us
Meant to go 'round in pairs

Summerbreeze is blowing through your window
And summerbreeze is blowing through your hair
Something in your eyes that took me by surprise
Don't tell me that it ain't there"

"maybe I was born to hold you in these arms..."

Baby tiiiime!
This is the new little princess to enter our family. Such cute little girl!
I took these pictures a while ago at her little 'nameparty' or what ever it is called.
they're just some moment captured and nothing earth shatering but cute none the less.
Hope you like them.

When ever I see her I just wanna kiss her all over that cute little face!

While we try to teach our children all about life,
Our children teach us what life is all about.
~Angela Schwindt

Yeah this last picture didn't really turn out the way it was supposed to...babies are really hard to take pictures of. Seriously! She kept moving all the time and pee'd on the blanket...twice? hahah
Well that's the best I got. Better luck next time I guess.

aaaaand more musiiiic!



Maaan I just love this song. Listen to the lyrics!

"...there's a voice singing loudly on the radio just for you
and good fortune will find him in the end
maybe i was born to hold you in these arms..."

Love,
PaperHeart

"May this night keep you here 'Til tomorrow..."

BAAAAAAA!!
I'm SICK! not nice...oh well...
flu and this freaking cold (but pretty) weather got me thinking about summer and how much I miss it...so I went through some old photos and decided to post few pics from last summer and few years back.
Nothing special, just few pictures which made me crave for summer, warm weather and lovely dresses...
Hope these warm you up a bit on these cold days...

To see the Summer Sky
Is Poetry, though never in a Book it lie -
True Poems flee.

And dress by yellow candle-light.
In summer quite the other way
I have to go to bed by day.
