I used to be Snow White, but I drifted.

Fairy tales are such wonderful creatures. They live all around us - in the falling leaves, in a quiet evening or in the socks that have been carelessly hung to dry on the old heater. You just need to know where to look and more importantly - able to see. My favorite fairy tale lives in this little red hat that my mum made me. And I love it, I really do. Hope you like the pictures and be sure to tell me what you think :)

Muinasjutud on ühed imelised olevused. Elutsevad märkamatult kõikjal meie ümber - langevates lehtedes, õhtupäikeses ja radikale kuivama riputatud sokkides, tuleb vaid osata otsida ja vaadata. Minu kõige lemmikum muinasjutt elab selles väikeses punases mütsikeses, mille emps mulle heegeldas. Ja see on üks imeline väike lugu. Ma loodan, et pildi meeldivad ja nagu ikka - olge tublid mu hiirekesed! :)

Wake me up when the bluebirds are singing.

I had dream the other day - I saw the opening of my first solo show - down to the very last detail. I saw who was there, and what I was wearing and what I said in my speech, I saw that there were little cupcakes being passed around, and there was pink wine, the space was big and white and all the drawings had gorgeous white filigree frames, and people were smiling and I was happy. It broke my heart to wake up, but now I'm more determined than ever. So I've covered myself in work-work-work and more work. You know what they say - if you really want something, you have to be truly obsessed. So here are some photographs and another little illustration to sum up my week, as I said - all work, no play. Hope you like the pictures and be sure to tell me what you think :)

Üldiselt näen ma väga harva und. Peamiselt sellepärast, et no olgem ausad - ma ei maga, aga kui see vahest õnnestub, siis püsib nähtu meeles vaid umbes 5 minutit. Aga seekord juhtus midagi kummalist, nägin nimelt oma esimese näituse avamist.. Ja seda kõike viimse detailini - nägin, mis mul seljas oli ja keda ma oma kõnes tänasin, millised kutsed välja nägid ja kes kõik olid kohale tulnud. Nägin kuidas šikid kelnerid väikeseid koogikesi ringi jagasid ja kuidas roosa vahuvein klaasides sillerdas. Ruum oli avar ja seinad olid valged ja rippuvaid töid kaunistasid imeilusad valged raamid, inimesed naeratasid ja mina olin õnnelik. Üles ärgates oli küll kurb meel, aga egas midagi, nüüd ei jää muud üle kui asi ka päriselt ära teha. Nagu Kai Saar viimases loengus ütles - kui on unistus, siis peab olema nagu hullumeelne ja seda igal sammul taga ajama. Niisiis, pliiatsid teravaks ja tööle! Nonii, aga siin on üks väike illustratsioonike ja hunnik fotosid, mis kenasti mu selle nädala töise meeleolu kokku võtavad! Loodan, et pildid meeldivad ja nagu ikka - olge tublid mu hiirekesed! :)

Panic on the streets of London.

I've spent the last week in a most traditional way, like every fall: being sick at home. I desperately miss the days when being sick meant that you can just lie around doing nothing while your mom gets you orange juice, Digimon is on TV and you don't have a care in the world. But now... I get to go to the phardmacy only to discover that it was closed 5 minutes ago and when I try to console myself by buying something nibbly and sweet from the supermarket, my darling brain decides to forget my PIN. To top it all of, when I get to school, I feel like I've been living under a rock for three months. But nothing makes me feel better than Morrissey's haunting melodies, a cup of my favorite tea given by a favorite person and some pages of good humor. I hope you like the pictures and be sure to tell me what you think :)

Olen viimase nädala, nagu sügisele ikka kohane, väga traditsiooniliselt veetnud, ehk haigena kodus. Ma nii igatsen neid aegu kui haigeks jäämine tähendas seda, et viskan jalad diivanile, emps toob apelsinimahla, telekast ketrab digimon ja pole ühteainsatki muret. Ja mis nüüd.. lähen apteeki ainult, et avastada, et see suleti 5 minutit tagasi ja kui selle feili peale tekib soov toidukast endale lohutuseks miskit head nosimist haarata, otsustab aju kassasse jõudes, et pin kood on mõõdukalt ebaoluline info, mida enda imeliste sagarate vahel talletada. Kõige tipuks on lõpuks kooli jõudes tunne, nagu oleksid kolm kuud kuskil kivi all elanud. Surm ja hukatus ütleks selle peale! Aga mitte miski ei paranda mu tuju paremini kui Morrissey kummitavad noodid, tassike lemmikkamraadi kingitud lemmikteed ja mõned leheküljed muhedat huumorit. Loodetavasti pildid meeldivad ja nagu ikka - olge tublid mu hiirekesed! :)
