bed or a pub

yesterday was such a nice day, comparing to this rainy morning.


in the evening, I got an offer to go to a pub and at first I said no, cause I'm going out today. But when I thought that I could be socializing with people rather than watching friends in my bed again, I thought, screw it. And I'm really glad I did, because while we were talking, we realized that one girl is looking for a flat as same as me, and now there's 3 of us. Which makes it possible to rent the flat we kept our eyes on since May. Oh God, I really want that particular house. And we made plans to go to a theater to see a play, because one of our friends is an actor. And we made plans to finally go and buy bicycles, which I'm craving for since May as well :))
No pictures from the pub though. But I will be talking loads of pictures tonight. Well, I hope so. I'm planning to dye my hair (just the roots need doing, nothing too crazy) and wearing my new dress, which somehow makes me really excited. It's going to be a Karaoke night that our office is organizing. Should be fun!
Also, leaving your freshly washed clothes outside in the garden through the whole night hoping it won't rain in England is not a good idea.

Nike vs Vans

Recently I started to realize that I'm starting to forget all the different shifts I had. All the memories from work during 2014 are starting to fade. And I missed my blog. So I thought that even short posts are nice to have on my blog.
Yesterday I worked at Hilton St. George. Serving dinner to Americans from shoe company Nike. I swear, it was so nice to hear a proper american accent. And it does sound exactly like from the movies. I heard one young lady saying ' you should go to New York and then get a flight to LA' . *trying to make an american accent; completely failing*.
and the day before that, I decided that I want to go back to my lovely Vans. I'm glad that I can go into the shop and buy my favorite shoes. I worked for it.
accidentally listening to this now, laying in my bed, all cosy.



And also, I wanted to share this article. Every single sentence defines me. I'm guessing I'm not the only one then. http://www.idealistrevolution.org/how-to-love-a-girl-who-doesnt-know-how-to-be-loved/

you're the dutch and I'm the dutchess

it's been too long. Right now I can barely remember my holidays back home. But I'm certain of one thing. Even though when people asked me, when I'm coming back to LTU again, I said probably at the end of the summer, because I want to go to a few music festivals, but right now, I cannot see myself back in LTU at all. My mom said 'don't say that, you will probably change your mind by the middle of the summer' and who knows, it might be true. But as of right now I don't even want to think about it.
Don't get me wrong, it was not that bad. But when I came back  to UK I felt more myself for some reason. I was feeling really out of place  in LTU. Felt like I need to prove something for people I don't even care about anymore. So, yeah.
I also wanted to write a big appreciation post about Bristol and I wrote most of it on my way back to Brum on my iPod, but my iPod is now dead and I'm not really in the mood to talk about how I feel about choosing the wrong city to live in :D But I will add some pictures to remind myself for next time,  maybe I will write all the feelings down about it and publish it.
But the main reason why I opened my blogspot again was this song. I'm not in love. ( well, I have no idea what real love feels like, but I think I'm not in love). It has been stuck in my head for a few days and I just wanted to share.












I make fun of your belly and tell you do some crunches
And you say, "Yeah, well, your ass jiggles, go and do some lunges."
I say, "Fuck you," while I'm thinking of you as my husband. 
I didn't think it could be true
Let alone that it would be you
I think I'm in love again

So, I'm writting this post in the coach station on my way to London. And to those, who don't know the story, I am going to see Rustie play, which was supposed to happen on 19th of March. But they changed the date to the day before my flight to Lithuania. I really hope that the traffic and all the other awful things that could happen and I would miss my flight because of it won't happen. ( knocking on wood ( not really, since there's no wood around me, but you get the jizz)).

And I'm so excited to go back home, you can't even imagine. I mean, I'm not homesick at all, it's just I miss the feeling of not worrying about what to make for dinner, or do I need to wash my socks or did I remember to buy the shampoo :D It's been 6 months since I left home and it has been awesome, but I need a holiday.
so yep, that's it, I'm not going to waste any more battery on my blog. I guess, the next one will be from LTU. bye :*

past few days

so yesterday was such a good day that I feel I need to mark it in my blog as well (snapchat has been my best friend recently btw).
but to begin everything I want to tell you, I have to start on Friday. I've never gone away for the whole weekend because of work, so this was my first time. We went to Chichester, West Sussex. I worked in Goodwood Organic Food van for two days as a cashier. Wore silly uniform. Got completely exhausted. But still, coming back to our caravan after a long shift and having diner with my co-workers was really awesome. I used up all my internet while I was in London and Brighton, so I had a little break from that as well.



Monday night out was good too. I needed a little break from work so me and my friend decided to explore Birmingham a bit more (as if!:D) Found this amazing place near Ikon gallery, but it was too dark to take proper pictures, definitely coming back when the spring 'hits'. Also, spanish tapas place near canal - wonderful atmosphere. and you know, cheeky drinks and girls talks. 


But yesterday was completely different kind of happy. I woke up with a sunshine on my face. Probably that was the best start of the day I could ever as for. Went to view a flat I might move into in mid July. Went to bar training in the office. #so #growing #up
Got lost in the suburbs in Birmingham as well, since I had no internet :D That was a first. But found new favorite place just because of that. Feels like Palanga, with swans in the lake and bushes and trees all around.





AND ALSO. this fuckin song can put me in the most amazing mood instantly.

Brighton/Ten Walls/London

So, I had a trip I want to tell you all about. My classmate from Lithuania came to UK, and we decided to check out Ten walls gig, which was in Brighton on the 6th of March at Concorde 2. Since you can't find neither the bus or the train straight to Brighton from Birmingham I had to get two buses. One to London and then to Brighton. (I know it's the third sentence in a row that I mentioned Brighton, (4th now), but that's your English grammar.) I was telling this whole story to my mom and it ended up as 1 hour chat, so sorry, if this post is going to be long. ( I had a few glasses of wine tonight, so sorry about that as well).

The first thing I thought about when we were driving through London was I the hell I was so against it and why the hell I chose Birmingham over the capital. Since I had half an hour to spend till the next bus, I thought I would walk around a bit. Even though I didn't see as much, but the sunset just made me feel extremely happy to be in this wonderful city. When I got to Brighton, I went straight to the sea. I literally ran towards the water. I felt as if I'm in some kind of euphoria. I met with my friends and walked along the pier. It was magical.

When we got to the gig, the amount of people actually kind of surprised me. Even though we talked to some of them and they had no idea who Ten walls is or that he's Lithuanian, I was glad that we came to support him. I can say, that it is not my kind of music, so I literally just wanted to hear the famous "Walking with Elephants" track. And I did.

Since we are really cheap students, we thought that catching the first bus from Brighton to London was a good idea. And it was not that bad. I was thinking that two hours of sleep will be enough to spend the whole day in London. Too bad that after this trip I realized that I can't fall asleep on buses.
We were extremely lucky with the weather though! We got to London at 8.30 in the morning, and the sun was shining on our faces, no wind, +13. Perfect for tourists and us. Yeah, we pretty much were the tourists. Anyway, Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square, Big Ben, London Eye - all just wonderful.

I have this app, which I recommend to everyone, called The Time hop. It synchorinises all your twitter posts, Google+ pictures and facebook posts and shows what you did exactly 1 or more years ago on the same day. And on Friday I checked that exactly 9 years ago I posted this amazing picture of London in the evening and just thought, oh wow how time flies, I'm going to see the exact same thing tomorrow. And I did. Walking near River Thames with the sunglasses on, old friend by my side, going through Vintage book sale, seeing stylish people with huge smiles on.
People who know me really well, know how much bridges and lights mean to me. It's just the thing I feel really fascinated by. My goal was to check out this Tower Bridge which looked awesome in Google Street view. And we checked it out. And it was wonderful ( even though I thought it was a bit bigger :D )

Then the plans changed to the completely better side for all of us. I said goodbye to my friends and met my sweet London girls. All I really wanted to do is just have some drinks near that damn river (damn as in completely amazingly beautiful and wonderful) and watch the sunset. And guess what, we did. And I can't wait till I see them in a month again. Yes, I'm going back. This time, we're going to see Rustie play live. This is my kind of music. And I'm going with the people I really care about and share the same taste in music, which is really important in my life. I CANNOT WAIT.
So yeah, I was completely knackered by the end of the day and my bus was 45 minutes late, but it's alright. (And yes, I couldn't fall asleep in this one as well, even though I haven't had any sleep in almost 40 hours?).

After this amazing trip, I questioned my choice and even though London is pretty (f*kin) expensive, I wouldn't say no to actually live there. But since it's my life, I might end up in this beautiful city, you know. I can finish uni and move where ever the f I want. I might just to that. Or I could move to New York. That would be awesome as well :D All I really need from  a place I live in is water, bridges, lights and beautiful sunsets.

I'm sorry for lots of 'even though' and 'wonderful amazing awesome' in this post, but I actually wrote this so fast, I'm still surprised. ha, and sorry for any mistakes. (haha I actually DONT CARE.)

PICTURE TIME.
