red lips and colourful nails

Just saw this in a blog I follow.

I highly reccommend you to enlarge the picture (by clicking at it) and check out her nail color) Back in June my 15-year-old girl-cousin used the same nail polish colours on my 24-year-old self. Only in different order)))

That was fun, really) As people paid curious looks to my outfit (usually totally white) and to my nails. Meantime my toes were coloured skyblue. Nice combination))

p.s. I'm going to use my read lipstick tomorrow. I'm sooo jealous of how good it looks on her lips.

Most amazing weekend!

Now, ladies and gents, let me tell you 'bout my weekend in Moscow.

I was invited to stay with my most favourite second cousins. I just love them so much, cuz they are truly the best realtives I have (after my parents and sister ofc). There's nothing they won't do for me. And they seldom ask me to do something for them. So you see, they are perfect.

Ofc you might think that I'm taking advantage of their kindness, but that's not true. I hardly see them during the year, and last time I saw them was in September (remember me and my bestest cousin playing UNO?), and before that it was about 3 years ago. So I definitely don't take any advantage. I just love them. And they love me.

Now enough of this sentimental rubbish.

We decided to go to Moscow together with my best friends Milena and Masha. I and Milena took the train to Moscow on Tuesday morning (8:44am, monstrous time, I had to get up at 6am) and Masha was supposed to join us in Moscow on Saturday morning.

So, we were in time for the train, we had some food and drink with us, and we had my UNO cards, and music. We had a whole compartment all to ourselves. That was just great!

Our compartment was a mess, but so cosy :)

We sang songs, and had them recorded to our mobile phones, took tons of pictures and had so much fun, we slept a bit and finally (after a 6-hour journey) we were there.

It was raining when we got into the carriage, and it was raining when we arrived. So we were not in the mood of leaving the cosy compartment and going out into the wet city. My cousin Ara (who was waiting outside) began to worry that we were not coming out, and he met us just at the threshold of the compartment. I was head over heels happy to see him.

Here's Ara, we're already at home.

so shy ;)

and I

First night we played UNO a bit.

i'm not too proud of how I look in this pic :)

We laughed a lot. I laughed so hard that I literally fell on the floor =D Arthur had hard time trying to help me to my feet.

The next day I had some stuff to do in the morning, but in the afternoon we went for a walk, though Anoush and Arthur felt terribly bad, they got cold in the morning. And Arthur had hardly slept at night. We went to this huge mall which is called Yerevan-Plaza. Only it turned out you can't take photos there. So I've got only 12 pics. Here's one of them.

 And then one of my best friends Asya came to see me. She brought a lovely bouquet of white tulips. I love tulips, but people always give me roses.

here's the cutie, and my aunt is right behind it)

Then the other one of my second cousins came to visit me (I've got loads of cousins: first, second, third)

Petros, me and Arthur

Ani took a bunch of photos of us all)

it's not hard to tell who's my favourite, right? <3

he's my favourite!

And I suppose I need to finish this post with a lovely tulip photo. Sure, the weekend story is not over yet. I'm terribly sleepy, that's all. =)

Woah!
I need to update the blog more often, otherwise I won't be able to keep up with all these events happening round here.

So about this night out with my cousins. Nothing special.

Here are two pics.

them

my hair is a mess, i know. who cares anyway?

 And that day's sunset was gorgeous!

The next morning I woke up early to catch the sunrise again. The camera battery pack was fully charged and I didn't leave the memory stick behind. Though first I wasn't cycling very fast and realized I could be late. So I quickened a bit.

And I kept turning my head and asking the sun to hold on a bit, don't rush.
When I arrived there - it was still a bit dark.
But that was only because it was cloudy! I was soooo not happy with that)
A couple of pics.

After 10 minutes - not too much difference, right?

The view opposite the sun. Much more catching shades!

The sun has fully risen by now. Any difference?

The church in the distance is the Svensky Monastery.

The sun is still hiding.

Then an engine arrived with it's disgusting smoke and smell and rattle. I couldn't stand it anymore.

If you want to go down there is only one safe way:

The view from down there.

See those two rails on the roof to the left? That's where I usually sit.

From the other side.

After I descended I received a phone call from my dad. He asked me to come and find some really important papers. So I had to rush back home. And was so tired after all this cycling.

Ok. That's enough for now. I really need to sleep.

ps. hope my friends will make it tomorrow. I want to host a pancake party!

Guests! with presents!

So I was struggling not to fall asleep before the guests arrived. Actually one of my second cousins was expected to come and stay for a couple of days.

And honestly, I was sooo tired I thought I could possibly pass out.

Instead I changed (into one of my white jeans and the Supergirl tee which I just LOVE) and applied a bit of make-up (which has been a very rare thing lately) and I surprised myself by making a couple of little braids and then braiding them in a bigger plait. I usually have my hair in a bun on top of my head these days. Simple and out of the way.

The matter is that the last time I met this second cousin who is coming to stay was about 5 years ago. pretty much, huh? though as kids we used to be really close.

I don't have any distinct memories of him as an adult and I assumed that he would feel the same.
So this impression I was going to make was to be literally the first impression, right? And we all know how important it is.

It's not that I'm making too much unnecessary fuss about him. I mean, you have to agree that it would be stupid to meet him in my usual homewear and home hairdo :D

Anyways, turned out he was staying at my uncle's, just a couple of bus-stops towards the city center.
And he brought some quite nice presents :) A bottle of vodka with a box of chocolates. And a lovely shampoo and conditioner set which is perfectly suitable for my rather picky hair! The choice wasn't his, though. His stepmom got it for me. And there's Dad's favourite hand cream! How did she know?

And when he left with my uncle, I couldn't be less tired and sleepy. I was rather agitated that next day I would give him a proper tour of the town!

Next thing you know I am in the kitchen, stuffing my face with pasta and stewed vegies :S I just love carrots, peas and corn as a side-dish. Especially carrots!
And you can imagine my disappointment when everyone (including Dad) refused to have a dinner and had only tea.
So I guess that's why I was annihilating all the food :D So much effort wasn't going to be wasted.

I don't have any pics with this newly arrived cousin, so instead I'm posting this lovely picture of me with Arthur. This one was taken on his birthday. And I assure you, I'm wearing this supergirl T :D which is hard to be distinguished.

 

Have noting to add to this. So night everyone.

(Next thing you know I'll be starting my entries with: Hi everyone. Geez.)
