End of Semester, Hanami and Sunrise Avenue Concert

Close up cherry blossoms :)

Last week was surprisingly busy and I think I tried to manage too many things at the same time. If you have been reading my blog you might remember that I failed this one exam I had.

     Well. I tried to pass the same course again it seems I failed it again. Oh well, I can attend the course again next semester. It's an obligatory course so I have to pass it at some point before getting my bachelor degree done.

     Anyway, I sincerely tried my best so there is nothing I can do about it now. I was busy trying to prepare for the exam so I thought that after the exam I could have had a small holiday before since I had a couple day-offs from work. However, I ended up doing spring cleaning that took a whole day. I was so tired after spending the entire day cleaning my apartment and washing winter clothes to store all the unnecessary items for the summer season.

     Good thing is though that I got to take pictures of a clean apartment so that I can give you a small apartment tour in a few weeks time.

Luckily, Thursday was a bit more relaxed. Since it was the Ascension Day almost everyone got to have a day-off. In Roihuvuori, Helsinki, a hanami (aka flower viewing) event was arranged that day so together with my sister we decided it would be nice to visit there.
     The cherry blossoms were so beautiful! I had never seen so many cherry trees in the same place. The Roihuvuoren Kirsikkapuisto (literally translated as cherry park of Roihuvuori) was filled with visitors when we got there and the flow of people seemed never ending. On a small stage various performers entertained the gathered audience and few stalls were selling Japanese food and some snacks like Pocky biscuit sticks and Ramune sodas. It was nice event but both me and my sister were quite tired and so decided to leave the event quite soon because there were so many people.

     We returned to Helsinki centre and ended up shopping a bit. It had been quite a long time since we last went shopping together so it was really nice way to spend the rest of the afternoon before my sister had to catch the train back to our parents.

Saturday was quite a hasty day with my mom and sister. First we went too see this "spring event" arranged by the small local dance association in my parents hometown. After that we hurried to my apartment before leaving for the dinner and after that to Sunrise Avenue concert. If you don't know the band go ahead and google it. All three of us have been fans from the first album.
     No words can describe how much importance their music has had in my life. All I can say that their music something I can never listen too much. I never get bored with their songs.
     I always felt I've missed out something because I had never got a chance to go see the band live before this concert. But then again I was glad I got to go this time since it was part of their Best of Fairytales tour which means they play various songs from the very beginning till this day - I got to see them perform nearly all of my favourites. <3

Couple pictures from the concert I took with my phone so the quality is not the best

If anyone from the Sunrise Avenue happens to read this: "I LOVE YOU GUYS! KEEP UP WITH GOOD WORK MELTING THIS YOUNG HEART AGAIN AND AGAIN!" xxx

Everyone has the right to act like a teenage fan girl from time to time. Right? :)

Well, that's all for now. I felt I needed to do a little update since this week I have had plenty of time in my hands so I thought I could use it to write new post and start planning next ones too. So hopefully till next week! xxx
