Getting ready for my graduation


 Oh My Gosh!


 It seems to be tomorrow! My graduation. Crazy huh? I graduate from high school. School's out! (High school at least)



I am so happy because I see results -  I've been on a diet for two months because of tomorrow and I've been working out too. It's so rewarding to see results, and hopefully I will look amazing in my dress. 

Fine, I admit, I've been working out my arms a lot… But I wanted them to look good in my dress! And I like my biceps. Though they could always be bigger!


I am so proud of that tummy. Thank you so much 2 months diet and cravings that I resisted (like cereals and croissants at breakfast time). Though for example eating porridge with cottage cheese for breakfast has become a lifestyle for me. You can get addicted to healthy eating too! Not kidding! 

I am fine with my body. I feel better when I work out and I'm always happy to  see the results and to improve my body. I can always change it to be better, but I am pleased with my body right now too. I live in it, so I should be happy with it! It's mine and only mine. I carry it with happiness. 

Those shoulders aren't much (or big) as you can see. But I'm working on it! I am progress. But they'll at least look good when I'm wearing my dress. 

Everything seems to be ready for tomorrow. I have my dress, my cap, shoes and everything else too. Now I should chill out but I can't relax - I'm just running around because I am so nervous! 

I am nervous because I have been honored to give the speech (of a graduated student). But it will go well, I'm sure. I just can't look around because if people cry, I will start to cry too! 







This is my cap! 

We went to take some test photos last week. Here you can see few of them! I wish we had snow, but no can do. I'm sure the photos will be amazing without snow too!



They're taken by my dear friend Aino. I love you. You're simply the best.

Here in Finland graduation from high school is a pretty big thing. We have this huge party and all family and friends will be invited. We get a dress (or else) of our dreams and a white cap that tells everyone you graduated successfully. I compare this to New Zealand, where graduation from high school is no big deal (I've done it).. Everyone is just in their school uniforms and there is no party or anything. There the big thing is if you get into University and when you graduate from University I guess. Not sure though!




I am pleased with my leaving certificate. I got pretty good grades in my opinion. They're good enough for me, and I'm happy with them, so that's enough. 

My dress is still a secret! But I promise you some photos later.




Here you can see my lashes! I got lash extensions and I love them. They're perfect. Not too much, but to make an impression and to turn heads! So happy.


Well what else? I don't know. I'm nervous. And stressed. And you'll get more photos later! 

Wish me luck!
