Looking back: Experience #1

It's has been long time without any entry. I thought I could write some experiences I have had while travelling outside of Finland.

One of the weirdest ones was when friend were sitting in a Ueno park. At the time we were there, there was lots of people going by and sitting. It was close to 10PM-11PM when one guy came to us. Yes, I have written about this earlier but here I go again. This guy was wearing dress and his hair was done prettily. Transvestite. He asked if we had boyfriends and did we had them with us. He even had to show something from his bag which I was at first quite sure would be something perv but instead it was perfume and necklace. He had to try it on us but I was lucky enough to talk myself out of it, so he only sprayed it on my friend. He was proudly telling where he found that cheap perfume and other girly stuff. Perfume cost only 500yen....and smell sure wasn't good.

One of the funniest what happened in Asakusa's Sensoji temple. It was closer to end of the trip for friend and I. We had decided to use non make up on that day while roaming around Asakusa and Sensoji temple and since it was July at the time it was hot summer day. We met this female mother who was with her young son. The boy was maybe around his 3 to 4 years old. We talked for awhile. Mostly it was her questions and comments how pretty we looked. Suddenly she asked if it was ok to take photo of us and her son also joined in the photo. It was fun.

Food in Japan is mainly healthier than in Finland.
Here is something I have been enjoying more or less in Japan.



Way too sugary. Couldn't even drink half of it.




 Even this sushi plate is better than the one we have here in Finland. I have started to appreciate far more Japanese and Asian food. 



 Our New Year's food...well, at least part of it. (laughs) That champagne (?) was really bad tasting. I will never again drink it!

P!nk Hartwall Arena

P!nk live at Finland 28.05.2013

It was amazing live and funny and unexpected things happened here and there. She has never been disappointing at any point of the lives where I have attended...which had been all of her live inside of Finland. Before coming to Hartwall Arena friend and I went to eat and it was delicious! Fried chicken with fries.


Here is something what happened before P!nk came to stage and it was also after warm up band Redrama. Personally I don't like Redrama's music but it seemed to get part of the people going on.
There is lots of more recordings in youtube about the live. They are good memories and fun to go back and experience those feelings again you had on that day.



It is always great to see celebrities interacting with their fans, even middle of the lives. P!nk just might end up chatting for awhile with someone middle of the live and whole audience goes silent for that moment. Respectful.
Grown tired of those lives where everyone screams and shouts when the artist tries to say something and because of that you can't hear anything.

Something she wrote about Finland's live "Finland, you guys rocked!"

Setlist:
01. Raise Your Glass
02. Walk of Shame
03. Just Like a Pill
04. U + Ur Hand
05. Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely)
06. Try
07. Wicked Game
08. Just Give Me a Reason
09. Trouble
10. Are We All We Are
11. How Come You're Not Here
12. Sober 13. The Great Escape
14. Who Knew
15. Fuckin' Perfect
16. Most Girls" / "There You Go" / "You Make Me Sick
17. Slut Like You
18. Blow Me (One Last Kiss)
Encore
19. So What

Hi!

My travelling plans have changed a little but friend and I have new better plan now. It will be secret for now but will tell you more later. I still will travel to Japan, once again.

Tuesday which in my time is tomorrow I will go to Helsinki and see P!nk live. After two years she is back in here and surely can't wait. I'm sure if she will stay healthy we will have great live. Wishing all the best for her.



At the moment I very sleepy so my mind isn't working....even cat is sleeping at this very moment. Yes, our newest addition to family actually sleep in nights. Cute isn't it (chuckle)

Good night!

Plane to November

Went to do some shopping on sunday and few stuff came with me, such as friend's birthday gift.. I'm early this year! Here is 3 pictures I found and couldn't leave them there; London, Paris, New York.



Last friday we also bought flight tickets back to Tokyo, Japan. We will stay there whole november and bit of  december too. It will be fun. Will tell you more later when travel time is closer...


Friends and I got tickets to the GazettE live concert tickets to World tour 13 final live in Helsinki, Finland. I'm sure it will be fun to see them again. I hope people in there will know how to act and no one would push and shove others but I guess it is just my dreaming because I won't believe it will happen.

Now it is time for bed.
おやすみなさい〜 Good Night~

Been while but I'm back!

Long time no post. After getting back from last trip in Japan all I have pretty much done is work work and work. But that doesn't mean I don't have anything planned for later this year.

For some odd reason I really want to travel Mie, Japan. It would be cool!  But what is more sure at this point is the fact that I'm going to Helsinki once again. It will be time for P!nk conquer Hartwall Arena once again. It's already sold out long time ago and there is added new seats.

                                                28/05/2013, Hartwall Arena, Helsinki, Finland

Next weekend there will be one live where I'm most likely going and later is another one coming. Von Hertzen Brothers and Irina.

                                            23/03/2013, Rytmikorjaamo, Seinäjoki, Finland

                                                    12/04/2013, Rytmikorjaamo, Seinäjoki, Finland

many things to do

Been long time without a entry... Sorry!

It is almost end of the trip. I actually broke kind of my phones memory card, so can't update with photos till home. Anyhow, been in this trip in Hiroshima, Niigata, Osaka, Kyoto, Nagoya and Tokyo. Lots of fun things has happened.

Saw few bands live...yes again (laughs) Penicillin, Granrodeo, the GazettE, D.I.D., AND, Lynch., -OZ-, Jackman, Carat, Black Cat, Dir en Grey, LuLu, RevleZ, Nega, Black Line, SCREW, D and few more.

It is almost midnight here in Japan and feeling sleepy. Almost finished packing stuff but still some small things need to be done.

Few things left undone because there wasn't enough time for us to do them but all of them are inside of Tokyo. Till next time they can wait.

Also, saw one friend couple times. It was fun to be able to chat face to face after long time. Last time was in Tsukicon 2009.

But now good night everyone. I might update before leaving or not. We will see.

Minna mata ne~

Until next time....

Train


Bought train tickets to Seinäjoki - Helsinki and Helsinki - Seinäjoki. Now, I don't need to worry over them anymore.  It is only two weeks left till trip to Japan. I wonder how I'm going to get all I need. Present to certain people are taking much of space of my travelling bag. I guess I need to add some of them to hand bag to get all needed with me.

This time I'm going back to Japan but I'm not going to stay within same city what is Tokyo where friend and my home locates. We are planning to go if we have time to go in all of these; Niigata, Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, Nagoya, Hiroshima, Chiba, Yokohama and maybe somewhere else if we feel like it. We bought 21 days JR Pass.

We are living most part of our trip in Kunitachi. We got big room for us. Only sad thing is that it takes around 30 mins to get from there to Shinjuku + walking to train station.
