My life

Why am I not keeping this updated? Why am I not posting more content? Why am I promising more than I can give? Well maybe blogging isn't my forté but I do still enjoy it. I need to make more time and stop procrastinating so much. Most of my free time gets put to Netflix and that hobby is about to get pushed aside. I'm currently trying very hard to get a placement for my third year of University. My parents were here in Helsinki over the Easter weekend and my mum is still here now. My dad flew back on Monday. I've got quite a few things on my plate. Plus I'm trying to edit vlogs at the same time. I do think I'm giving myself more than I can do but the more I have, the busier I am and the better I'll feel because I'll actually have things to do. So yes I'll post but only when I have time. But I think vlogging is going to be prioritised, partially because its a lot more work. Toodles! x

Having recently gone through something I didn't think would happen - especially this soon - I've decided to start a little "project" of my own. I have been reading a book called  The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin and I have loved every single page so far.  I have decided to dedicate the next couple of months of my life to - quite literally - myself. I want to find myself and see if I can deepen my understanding into my own life. I don't know exactly how I'm going to go about this but I've got a few ideas of things I want to start doing more often (eg. exercising and keeping a gratitude journal of some sort) and I now have a better insight on how I can go about making these positive changes. Yes I'm only 21 so I know I don't need to do anything drastic. But if I let myself get extremely upset at this point then I know I'm going to end up feeling quite depressed because, being back in Finland, I'm pretty much alone again an...

I'm back at it. I say this over & over again but I am actually fitting it into my schedule now. I am going to do weekly vlogs and upload them on Sundays. I currently have time to actually do this so why not get started now? I have a few things planned for the next few weeks and just felt like I wanted to start something new so I'm going to take to YouTube (again)!  Feel free to subscribe & like and all that jazz. I know it wasn't the best but I'm just starting out so it's up to you haha. Thank you if you do! Here's my first vlog: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHGw-0DWieE Enjoy! ♥  twitter | instagram  | youtube  ♥

The end of January has come and February has commenced. What's the plan for me? Well this month, I'm going to start doing monthly  vlogs. I know I wouldn't do daily vlogs because every day of my life isn't exceptional and I don't think I would edit that frequently. And I want to do something else weekly but I'm still thinking about it. I'm also going to do this minimalism challenge. I have no idea where it's from because my friend sent it to me but it looks like something I need in my life so I'm definitely going to stick to it. (I have scheduled this post to go live on February 1st so I am staying offline!) I can't wait to do all of this, it's going to help declutter my "life" in a way. Speak soon! Trushna xxx

This is a very late post and I am the worst when it comes to blogging. Always saying "I'm going to blog more" and I never do which I admit, is terrible. So instead of making promises that I'd potentially break, I'm just going to promise that I will continue blogging but the frequency of my posts are undetermined. Enough of the hello's and apologies! On January the 6th, it was my birthday. I turned 21 (woo) and a lot happened. It was a weeks worth of celebrations and I couldn't have asked for anything better. 02.01.2015 I had made plans with one of my best friends, Sarah, to have breakfast and then go out and just have a day together. We hadn't seen each other in around 2 months with me being in Helsinki and her being in Manchester. So I went to her house at around 10:00 and we made our way to Wembley Outlet to have breakfast at Coast-to-Coast. When we walked in, we got guided to the back and there was my family and other closest friends and cous...

I went to Riga in Latvia over the weekend with eleven other students. It was one of the most amazing trips I've been on in a while. We arrived on Friday evening at around 1800 and almost immediately started getting ready for an evening out in the city. That was also one of the best nights out I have been on for the period I have been on my exchange. On Saturday, we had the privilege of being shown around by a local, so we saw the obvious touristic places but she also showed us some local markets which I fell in love with. We had lunch in the popular restaurant "Lido" and the food was delightful! However a few people ended up with pretty upset stomachs - not sure if it was the food or the alcohol intake from the night before! Anyway we then went for a wander around the city, had some cake in a little cafe and then decided to pop into a shopping mall to see if there was anything we liked. The only thing I bought was a pair of shorts -...
