I say YES to a new car & a new apartment!

This is a big one.
1.This summer due to circumstances I said yes to a new car. A Honda Civic Comfort. A new car had been on my mind for a while now but I had to put it off because I thought I couldn`t afford it. Turns out I could and it was the best decision I ever made.

Not my actual car. Mine is a different colour. ;)

2. The other news is that I moved and changed my rent apartment. That decision was pretty much made for me because my renter "kicked me out" due to her relative moving to Tartu. So I had to find a new home. I can`t say I was particularly happy about it at first. I don`t care much for moving, it really is a drag. And I had an awesome deal at the last apartment location and money wise. But I had to pull myself together and as a miracle I managed to find my new place which is owned by my girlfriends parents. It is smaller and the rent is higher but it is located near to the city and it is quite beautiful. I haven`t been here for long yet but it is slowly starting to feel like home. :)

I say YES to cooking lunch with my friends!

   Ok, so this blog post may sound random. I mean I have been to thousands of lunches with my friends but rarely do we get together and cook ourselves. So when these things do happen they make me happy and get me thinking we should do this more often. So this particular lunch was with my colleagues. Maigi was our lovely host and we decided to cook oven baked salmon and rice and a cheesecake. I must say I actually didn`t do much cooking myself. Maigi had already baked the cake and Risto was the main fisherman who deboned the fish and seasoned it and made it extra delicious with mayonnaise on top. We had a nice meal and a good time and we should really do this more often. So who wants to get together and cook lunch sometimes? ;)

Risto& Maigi- our great cooks :)



I say YES to keeping alive summer memories!

 In July I had a fun-filled day with my friends when we took a little road trip. You can read about it here. What I didn`t tell you is that my friend used a disposable camera this summer and took a whole lot of pictures. You can see some of the photos on her blog. So I decided to "steal" some of the photos and post them here to remember the fun day we had and keep the summer memories alive :)

I say YES to museums and science centers!

    I love visiting museums. I rarely do it and that`s why it was that much more fun to visit some new places and some old ones this summer. So to start off me and my brother and my mom decided to go to the Toy museum because they had never been. And then my mom went for a trip to the UK for a week and me and my little brother and my dad decided that we must visit the Ahhaa science center (because my lil brother is obsessed with birds right now and he wanted to see the little chicks that grow in the incubator) and the newly opened Ice Age center. So we did!

1. Tartu Toy Museum
Our favourite part was the playroom where you could go and dress up in costumes.

2. Ahhaa Science Center
So this one was my favorite because it was really interesting and I learned a lot and my brother had the best time there.

3. Ice Age Center
So the Ice Age Center is really cool but there was a lot of information just written on the walls and since my brother is 5, he can`t keep still for too long for me to read the information to him so I have to visit that place one more time just to get the full effect. :D Didn`t take any pictures either :p

So I think visiting different museums and centers is really awesome and there are some more I want to visit so I`ll keep you posted if I do ;)
