Wishing you blessed Easter!

I was going to wish you happy Easter but then I started to think, was it that happy?
I mean the results of the events in Israel 2000 years ago are happy for us. Jesus died for us so that we could live forever. So I rather wish blessed Easter for all of you. Maybe during this time we could really spend time with the word and understand of the events that happened long time ago. He died for us. It is unbelievable that this guy died for me. He died for me, for my sake that I could life forever. That all my sins are forgiven. He died for all my sins and my mistakes that I have done and going to do. How amazing is that? Isn't that the greatest way to show love. To realize that this much He loves me. It is just overwhelming feeling to realize that.. wow..

Here's a picture for you to enjoy this time of the year. Hopefully it gives you joy.

I had fun and busy day which I managed to complete, praise the Lord. Deadlines with school work, today we handed out this one work so I have one work less to do, which is awesome. Then I went to visit my practical learning - place. That was fun, I was little bit nervous and excited and wandering if I couldn't find the place.. but I did.. yay.. And it seems that I will have a lot to do there but that's just good thing for me :)
Tomorrow I need to speak Swedish when we go to this school visit with my Swedish class. Then i will head to HistoryMaker.. waiting for that, will be my first time and of course I am doing things. Part of Info-desk, prayer service and hosting the channels.. Yep, that's my Easter :D

Have a blessed Easter!

Valentine's Day


So I made this cake for Valentine's Day.. Was hoping to have some friends for a visit but no one came.. It took me a week to eat this cake.. it was good :)




christmas bakings



My gingerbread house for christmas 2009 in my first own rental apartment, also known as home.


23rd Birthday

My 23rd Birthday, 12th of December 2009.

this baby I made for my birthday.. it was fun, althou it took some time.. but as you will see from the pictures, theme of the cake was pink :D
And it indeed is a purse.. not a lock as some of you thought.. I like purses and bags.. not pink ones in real life but on a cake it's just fine.


Trying different things for the decorations.. red/pink whip cream this time, suits for a 23-year-old lady.. :)


























Here's some pictures from preparations in the beginning.. I used some raspberry jam in the between with sliced banana.. Also I used my pätkis-mousse in the middle of layers.. (oh, just a secret: it is so delicious.especially when you keep it in the fridge for the night)






Cake decorating starts! practice makes better!

I wanted to show some pictures of my bakings.. well my cakes that I have started to make.. the main idea is to practice my cake decoration skills.. and I am excited that I bought some new nostrils from Chennai that I am waiting to start using. Just waiting for the right moment..

But now some pictures for you. Here are the first ones from my brothers birthday in October 2009. Wanted to surprise him.
With the cake I tried different things and even with experiments, the cake came out well and delicious. yammy!


As you can see, there's two different cakes used in this. One from bigger size and another smaller. That gave me option to have little different shaping in the cake and also more layers.
During that time I bought my first own nostrils and tried different things on the cake.



This one is from my preparations.. it took some time but it was worth it! and it was fun to colour the whipped cream too.. patriotic colours with some green ;)

feeling blue


It's that time again.. to update my blog.
Cannot even say that I wouldn't had the time to write here, but just haven't done it.

Easter time is coming and on facebook you can see all the games featuring Easter things.. a new thing for me, being an game addict.. :D What else is here to do in the evening time.

It's Friday night, eating pain killers for my back pain, at home by myself and just finished a movie. Can life be any greater?!

Two weeks ago I came back from India.. Well, I visited Chennai, the city of friends and the city I used to live for six months. It was good times seeing friends and resting. Rest was needed.

Came back to school and it has been crazy busy. A lot of deadlines and essays to write and figuring how to make 8 people to be in the same room at the same time to write a seminar work. Interesting.
But the bright side of this wackiness is the thing that I have officially three weeks left of school and then my internship starts. I am really waiting for that. Next week I am going there for a visit and just to say hello.

I am also doing little bit of planning for the future.. I really really want to go and do internship abroad. So now it's just time for searching places from the field of Social Work. I am already excited about doing an exchange student - time over somewhere.. Not sure where, and not sure when.. but it's going to happen. I always dreamt about it in high school and vocational school but now I have the opportunity to do it.

I have enjoyed Friends lately a lot. My companion for the evenings.. and I just want to share with the world that they are hilarious. I remember the first time I watched Friends and it wasn't that funny. now I am just laughing all the time, I guess I have grown up to understand them more.. ;)


I have been wondering more about my life and what I will do and what I really want to do and what direction I will take and how I will survive here for so long-- a lot to think about really.. and also from now on I will try to keep this blog more up-to-date and maybe even having a theme for this.. Thing is I like to do different things so I am not sure about the theme yet.. will see. But just wanting to share some bits about my life and keeping a diary in a same place.


Goals for the future:

- loose some weight, don't eat that much
- sell my products: bracelets from saraneito designs
- find something interesting to do for the evenings
- Find more time to attend the youth meetings
- Buy Nintento Wii ( for some reason I have decided this.. and I will do it.. :D )
- Get TEFL Certification
- Learn to make chocolate
- Learn more arts and crafts stuff
- Learn & practice more of cake decorating
- Surviving without spending my student loan
- Exchange program
- Internship somewhere abroad


New things I have done lately:
- Put some seeds on a pot and seeing it grow and hopefully to bloom soon and then see a flower
- Bought some roast meat and making my official easter meal
- Learning to make Mould'nPaint decorations.. still learning more.. :D practising my painting skills
- playing Treasure Madness
