Ok, enough about blog plans for one post!
I would've wanted to carry out my "more style & outfit photos" plan with this post too, but I've a total pyjama banana since Christmas! So no nice new outfit photos to show now. But I was just going through the picture files on my phone and noticed there were loads of (more of less random and irrelevant) cell phone photos I never shared here on the blog yet -
So since I've got no new photos of me self, here's a little phone photo feed!
Okay, this little girl is off to bed. To wake up with a new age tomorrow hehee ♥
Cheers to that!
PS. Thank You all for the comments on my previous "recap of last year" post - I realize I could've gotten several nosy comments for trying to explain how things were like last year, and for telling you guys I wasn't doing so great and all. But you, dear readers, are unusually smart & sweet and I am grateful for that! What a sweet way to start a year of blogging 2012 ~*

Vlog Video Update – A Few Changes
Oh my oh my, does that headline really state _VLOG_ and _VIDEO?! Yep, I finally managed to record a vlog, that I'm actually publishing (I've given vlogs several tries throughout the summer, but have ended up publishing a great Zero). Some of you may remember me saying that I'll need to blog about what's been up with me in the past months - I decided to fit most of that in this vlog.
I made this just ~3 mins, so none of yalls will have to fear falling asleep while watching! ♥
I'd like HauteKeikk.com to stay a place for sharing ideas & inspiration about sweet things. But since I'll be living here at my family's and updating from here now, you guys would eventually have started wondering what the heck happened. And I'd rather have you know I'm still happily together with my B, but that we've just had to move out for the time being - than imagining even wilder things!

So, now you know what the deal is with how I'll be living for the time being; at my parents'. Right now, I don't really know what to think of this, it's such an odd situation for me to be staying here at my family's - after the past years of living on my own. If you are too, you might be able to imagine how crazy that might feel, moving back. Like going back in time. Mr.B says it's "just my big ego". Is it just that?
Either way, I'm glad the past few frustrating weeks of moving out (again!) are over!
Here's the apartment we left, almost emptied, with only some of my stuff left;

I will probably post photos from this home before we emptied it ↑ - once I start feeling like I can.
From my old/current room ↓ at mom & dad's, with just some of my stuff in it;

Yuppp, No way everything would fit in my room. I'm working on arranging things better, though!
I also rented a storage space ↓ now twice as full as here. And you can't see much here.

To those that have really been looking forward to an apartment introduction post; obviously I can now only be posting some detail photos from our ex apartment that I took this summer, and maybe a post from my "current room" at my parents'. But for an actual home / apartment post, we'll have to wait until I've got an apartment to call home again. Sorry, people!
So for now, I'm back to my old room, to staring at that same old birch tree behind it;

Alright, next post will be more cheerful & more style related, posting again soon! Take care!
Welcoming Spring – Moving Out & In
Long time no see-see, people! I'm hoping most of you have read that previous post by now - so that you guys would already know what's been up for me: I've been moving my stuff out of my old apartment, and moving them in this new home one of mine & my bb's.
So. I'm still alive & kicking and of course, more presentable than ever :

Hohohoho *cough* just took this whilst recording a V-Log video, and I'm pretty sure that's one of the best pics ever taken of me. You don't think?
Oh, "what VLOG" you say? I took a little VLOG to explain what's been up in the past month. Afterall I haven't posted in ages = there's just too much to tell ↓
NOTE: No music b/c I had problems wtih my vid editor. Oops.
PS: this video is mirror image so in case you were wondering -
that's not an engagement ring *fingers crossed* - yet.
Of course you're now thinking "well, can't you take a little time off in the midst of moving so you could blog too??" but honestly, it's been school work 24/7. No wonder I dropped half my classes last spring since this amount of school work in the last months of spring THIS huge. But let's not go there.

About the moving out-in process;
Like said, me and B found ourselves an apartment to move into a month back & got the keys to it 3 weeks ago on Friday. The hassle of emptying my old flat (by the end of April!) was one heck of a job! I spent several nights emptying it with B and cleaning it up with me'h daddy.
Here's from a week ago, in the old flat → looking quite empty here already.
We moved all the furniture etc to this new place 3 weeks ago. B's friends came to help us carry everything to the new apartment. We've been living here for two weeks now but as you could tell from that vlog, it's still kind of a big mess here still!
Anyway,
I've been snatching photos from along the way & am here with a pic spam!
Moving out started with the packing; I thought this ↓ was a lot of boxes already but... wrong! 
Luckily B came to join me with getting my things ready for moving them out of my old apartment.

I only tried to leave makeup and hair stuff & clothes at the old place. The bed was moved too.

After we'd moved our furniture in the new place, we went there every day and night to clean up and such. Like B is here, in his cool shirt which is unfortunately kind of blurry on here ↓ 
And because I had school assignments due every day and had to work on those too, I set up a little work table next to the kitchen. Which was pretty cool I thought ↓

In the beginning, the place was pretty empty of course. But cool book thingy huh? ↓

Little by little things started looking more like a home tho; we added plants ↓

And more plants and herbs...

One of my favorite green things is the little lemon tree which I insisted on us getting ↓

Anyway, our apartment is still full of bags & boxes as I said before; see?

And it wasn't long until I had completely emptied my old home and had so say BYEBYE to it. And got a last glimpse of my very own first home, all empty and ready for it's next owner. ↓

And whaddya know, we also celebrated B's b-day on easter. I actually made a dinosaur cake for him which I thought was super cool- don't really know if he thought it was as cool but hmm. I think so.

I still haven't thrown away the candles from B's B-day cake. Too cool I think.

And oh, did I mention our ANNIVERSARY?!! He bought a bunchhhhhh of flowers!❤ Whoa. My favorites, even two big phalaenopsis orchids in pots that we can keep. And much more.

And then came May Day... like said, I came home from work on the eve of May Day, and THIS LITTLE BEAST ↓ was waiting for me in the hallway on the other side of the door!❤

I can't get over how awesome my HK balloon is. It cheers me up so much ( n ______ n )

Below's me with B on May Day ↓, the first day in ages that I could actually be with him on, since all I've been doing for what seems like a forever is school school school. (But I guess I mentioned THAT one already ;o)

↑ but I mean... did that tissue really have to jump in the same pic with us?!? ( @` A ´@ )
Wow, that's enoughpictures for one post huh? Hope you guys enjoyed this post tho it wasn't about style or fashion or such, but as said I wanted to tell you guys a little bit about what's been going on around me and with me so I thought using a VLOG and photos worked better than a loooooonnggg text, hmm?!
But no more than 2-3 weeks of serious school time left before "summer break" from school!
See you guys soon, stay tuned for polls and shopping posts / makeup haul/tuto posts! Cheers ❤
A Sneak Peek On Personal Life
Well. You guys know I've had too little time for blogging lately, always replying to comments late etc. Like said I'm on the last year of my business studies (just my final report etc next year) = am super bizz-eeeehh with school work 'til the end of May *hhnnnggghh*
But that's not all; there's another big cause for my lack of blogging time, that being my (not to blame you my love) boyfriend, the man of my life, or Mr.B as I like to call him here on the blog. As a couple-in-love we naturally spend all the time we can together. So we've been living in 2 places = sometimes at my place but mostly I've been staying at his house.
So, since I rarely talk about my personal life, I thought I'd tell you guys some news that'll change that ↑ problem, and I thought I'd share a bit more on us!
Starting with a photo that describes how awesome I think my mr.B is;

Definite *WHEEEEEEEEEE* ↑ I'm flyiii-iiiiinngg~ material ok? Can you tell? Yeppers!
So, uh, you guys DID know I had the most amazing man on the planet as my now-bf future husband, RIGHT? I'm sure I've been mentioning on every other line on here. Oops.
I also wanted to give all y'alls answers to some FAQ's on me & mr.B, as obviously important a part as he is in my life. And to make things easier for you guys I made a little bunch-up FAQ BOX~ On the topic "keikk's life behind the scenes" *cough*what scenes?*cough* and more importantly my love life. Hehehe oh come on don't tell me you don't care about my lovey dovey life don't be a doo-doo face! ❤
OK, what have you guys been asking considering me & my man;
|
F A Q How we met? first years ago, most likely where I used to work. We lived in "next-door" city parts. |
Here's us doing one of my fav things, window shopping/shopping.

So what's all this to you? Well, since you guys now know that we're together 24/7 if we can, I'm sure some of you are now thinking "OH NOOEEESSS THIS BLOG IS DOOOOMMED SHE'LL NEVER WANT TO MAKE TIME FOR POSTING ON HERE AGAIN!!!" but hey guess what;
We're acturally heading towards better blogging times! ↓
[1.] We're moving in together with B, in a 3-room flat, this month!
Ta-daaahh ↓ I kind of drew this scetch for B to show him how I'd planned the interiors.

We've signed the rent contracts & can start moving our stuff in next week I think. Yeshhh.
Very exciting, and a bit JÄNNÄÄ (bit-scary) too tho, huh? But to us this is what we've been wanting + it's the only functional way (we always sleep in the same house anyway). This way we'll be able to start living our shared life for real and start building our family, home. As a couple, AVOPARI. *runs to the next room to scream like a teenage girl then runs back, continues...*
Plus this also means NO MORE ↓
• me staying at bf's & not having hair and makeup stuff with me WHICH MEANS;
• me looking boring b/c of that = not being able to take "todays hair n make" pics.
• having all the clothes I wanted to wear at home, while I'm staying at mr.B's
• not being able to take pics because i've left my camera at my place
• aggravating myself wasting precious blog time dragging 1000kg stuff around...
Like this ↓ (my laptop weighs two tons I swear.)

Soap, with this change I'll be able to blog about "my style" more. I'll be able to dress up when I feel like it (will be waking up in the same house my closet's in etc), and do my make-UP and hair if I want to (that's hard to do at bf's, lacking good light, hair products, half my makeup and a proper mirror) hohoho.
Ah, I'm dying to move already so we can start our life. Cheers!
