Suddenly I realize that summer is almost over!
How did this happen ??!?
As I mentioned in my last post from May (!!), time is flying by... Back then, I was busy doing all the things I love: having fun, seeing my friends, travelling, meeting new people, spending time in the mountains, doing sports...
Unfortunately time can also fly by when you're working too much - and hence forgetting to do the previously mentioned things...
Although it's not easy to say, I have to admit that the reason for my silence during these past months is the latter - my life has been limited to work :-(
I regret to say this, but now I've got the feeling that I wake up and realize that summer is almost over and that I've forgotten to live it... There've been some highlights that I've "squeezed in": my dad's 60th birthday, some close friends' weddings etc, but there've been even more events that I've missed out on - as well as many small daily pleasures...
I guess that the main thing that has given some kind of a balance to my
life - and the only one who hasn't really been impacted by the time I've spent working (thanks to remote connections and my "home office") - is my dear Ollie ;-)
Luckily she's always there, always demanding her share of my time and forcing me to take a break: to go for a walk, play or simply to take care of her...
But now, time has come to take care of myself as well ;-)
Why am I writing this post? Shouldn't I be sharing only "happy things" here??
Hmm, I guess it's simply to thank my friends & family who've been there anyway, and say I'm sorry for all those times I couldn't join you...
Many questions are still open: what do I want to do with my life? where do I want to live? what is my future? ... But the most important thing is clear - I have people around me that I love and who care!

Hei mami!
Eikö olekin - Ollie on niin söpö! Joo, ei ole helppoa kirjoitta ikävimmistä asioista, mutta nekin ovat osa elämästä ja nyt voin vaan toivoa että seuraavan kerran kun en ehdi kirjoittamaan blogiin se johtu kaikesta hyvästä elämässä (jospa sarjakuvaote toteusikin ;) )!!
Haleja!
