New old camera

I just wanted to show you what I found! My mum had this old professional camera in her cabinet! My dad had bought it 1997, and I think it's pretty cool! I need to buy a roll of film so I can try it!




Last week I was free the whole week, so on Tuesday when Essi's parents went to visit Essi in Jyväskylä, I went with them. We spent the day there and in the evening we drove back home.




On Saturday me and Essi went to shopping to Tampere! I bought some Christmas gifts and some clothes. And we were supposed to go to Ikea, but there was no sign where to turn, so we passed that and couldn't get there. Later I went to party with Miitta and Martsu to Cabaret! It was really fun night but the next day wasn't so fun...




Now I'm a little bit sick :( Yesterday in the gym I was feeling tired and couldn't do everything as well as normal, and today I'm feeling more bad. I don't want to be sick! My nose is running and I'm so tired. But I have been in Finland already over 2 months and I haven't been sick! Because in the States I was sick at least once a month.




But now I have good time to watch tv, and I have found really good series, Pretty Little Liars! That is some American teenager series, I love and hate that... And I'm addicted, but it's interesting! :D

Recruitment leader

On Thursday and Friday I was working in the club, and on Thursday evening I went to zumba and on Friday I went to try rumbita. It was my first time trying rumbita, and that was ok. First time when I went to try zumba I was quite confused also and I thought that it was ok but nothing more. But I quess when you practise and you know more, it's easier and funnier! So propably I'll be going again, hope so then I'm a little bit better. But if somebody doesn't know, rumbita is a kind of dance, flamenco etc.

Later on Friday I went to Martsu's apartment, we watched The Bounty Hunter, that was freat movie!

 


On Saturday morning I took a bus to Tampere, once again! There was cultural care's info, and now when it's official, I can tell it here also, I'm the new Recruitment leader in Tampere! :) Next month I'll be doing the info by myself.

After the info I met my friend Tiia! <3 She drove from Masku to Tampere, so we did a little bit shopping and then we came to Valkeakoski. We got ready and later we went to Cabaret, it's Valkeakoski's night club. We had fun night, but it is still so confusing to see in the club people who are born in 1993... I'm feeling myself old... :D We got tired a little bit before 3am and we walked home. It's fun going to party but getting yourself home isn't so fun.



 
On Sunday we were just sleeping, watching tv, for example the finnish movie Fc Venus and playing some games. Tiia left 6pm and then I spent the evening on the phone with Essi. I did a little walk with my mum also, so I wasn't just laying on the couch the whole day ;)



 
Today I'm going to do couple things and I have lots of plans for the rest of the week, so we'll see what's going to happen!



 
I put pictures from the tablecloth what my neighbor sent to me. I love it, it's so cute! It's handmade in Madagascar! And I was trying to take some pictures one day of the rainbow.

A surprise work day

Finally I got couple pictures from the airport when I came home! I'm just a little bit late with these, but better late than not at all.

Today I woke up 8.30am and I was just relaxing. Suddenly I got a phone call from the daycare really close to my home, that they need me today. They called 9.20am and I started to work 10am. :D It was fun day and it's different than in the other place, because here during the day we are going outside also, what we are not doing in the club.



I worked there until 4pm, and now I'm watching a movie what I recorded yesterday. Guess who -movie (in finnish it's The groom of the dream, totally different...), Ashton Kutcher has a leading role!

Later we went to a gym with my mum, it was a great class! I did really hard workout, so after that I was feeling really good. :p

A package from the States

Yesterday I didn't really do anything super exciting. I was hanging out home, went to grocery store with my mom and in the afternoon I was talking on skype with Alex <3 Soon my girl is coming home and then I can go to Austria!




Later I went to gym with my mum, it was really good workout hour again. And when we came home, it was pooring and freezing cold!! It takes just like 3min to ride your bicycle home but still I was totally wet. Always I need to come really fast home from the gym, because it ends 7.30pm and same time is coming my favorite finnish tv series, "Secret Lives". Now it's so thrilling, it's really hard to wait for the next day until the next episode is coming. And weekends are the worst because then there's no new episodes coming. :( I'm not addicted... :D

This morning I went to see a psychologist, I went to talk about my weird problems. Last week in the States when I went to snorkling (?), I "got" problems with breathing. That snorkling was scary, I couldn't understand how you can breath just with your mouth with that tube. Well, I could do that a little bit but later I started to feel that I can't breath well... But nothing was wrong with my breathing, it was just the though of snorkling still in my head. So I was talking about that kind of problems, but she said that they are normal, and I just should not try to think it and take deep breaths if those thoughts come back.

After that I went to see my friend Martsu. We watched The Princess and the Frog, that was great! And when I came home, I had a package from the States waiting for me!!! My lovely neighbor sent it to me! <3 That really made my day and now I'm thinking really hard what should I send to them for Christmas!




In the afternoon I was skyping with my Thai -friend Sue! :) And I went for walk with my mum for 1h 45min, that was tiring! Now I'm so tired and I'm planning going to sleep. :D

PS. Those hearts and balloons were for me when I came home from the States. My mum made them for me <3 And Essi made the white sign!

Raaseborg's castle

On Friday my day in the work was feeling really long. But finally at 3pm I was off and my grandma was waiting me in the parking lot. She drove me to Toijala to the train station. Ticket machine was working but I couldn't get a ticket so I thought that it's still not working. So when my train came, I went in and it was overfull! There was no place to sit, all the seats were full an people were standing and sitting on the floor. That was what I had to do also, I was sitting on the floor the whole 1h 20min. And my plan was to sleep, but somehow it didn't work out... Normally the trains are not so full, but everybody was going to Helsinki, because there was Finland-Sweden soccer game and NHL ice hockey game (Anaheim Ducks against Buffalo Sabres).



Finally at 6pm I arrived to Pasila where Jutta was waiting for me. We drove to Lohja, ate, and got ready for the night. Before 9pm we went to sit to some pub, and I found really good drinks! I don't like normal long drink, but cranberry long drink is ok. But they had many different flavor long drinks, so I took mango and orange, they were yammy!



At 10pm we went to Lohi -night club (lohi means salmon :D), but Apulanta didn't start until midnight, even a little bit after. But they were great, as usual. But in the audience there were some stupid girls who didn't even watch Apulanta, they were just jumping all around smashing in to everybody.



Apulanta stopped playing a little bit before 2am and we left quite soon after that. It was really great night, more these please! :)



On Saturday we woke up a little bit before 11am and I was still half sleeping when Essi called. So we woke up, got us ready and we drove to Raaseborg's castle (or however you call that). It has been a nice castle, but somepoint it has been rejected (between years 1500-1600), so it's not perfect anymore. But it was nice, we took some pictures and walked around. And there were just couple other people! There you are supposed to pay 2 euros, but we were too lazy to walk to that house and nobody was asking tickets so we didn't pay.



After that we were driving around, and I wanted to get a picture from the "King's Road" - sign, but we couldn't find other one and we were looking it forever! Finally we found it and we left Karjaa, and we went to eat to ABC Karjaa. I'm not getting enough of hamburgers ;)



Our trip to Raaseborg took quite long so in the afternoon we came back home. And rest of the day we were just hanging out, watching tv and reading Facebook fluffs, that's so much fun! You can just think how stupid people are and you realize that you are quite clever by yourself ;)



On Sunday we woke up before 8am and my bus left 9.15am. So 1h 20min to Helsinki, then waiting there 35min and then the bus from Helsinki to Valkeakoski 2h. It's a long way. My dad picked me up from the bus station in Valkeakoski and I just got ready and our relatives came to my sister's birthday.



Later when everybody was gone I was talking with my hostfamily on skype! <3 Finally!! First I was talking with my hostdad and P, and later they called again when my hostmum was home also and T and baby! My baby was so biig! :( I miss them so much! P was just telling me all the time "I miss you" and I tried to tell her that I know but tell me about your school, friends etc. :D But it felt so good to talk with them! I didn't get to change to talk with S because he was in his friend's house. But hope so next time! :)



Later I went for a walk with my mum, we walked fast one hour. And after that I was really tired, I don't know why. I was watching finnish comedy show "Pull out of the hat", and after that 9.30pm I went to sleep :D



Today my plans are still open. I should go through all my USA pictures and order what I want. I'm going to buy a super big photo frame to my wall and put it full of pictures from US! And I still would like to do scrap book for myself, I already made one for my hostfamily.

Housewarming party

I'm really bad with my blog right now. In America it was easier because I could write during the day when the baby was sleeping. And I had more time in evenings and weekends... I don't know, I'm not just hanging with the computer anymore so much. I'm in facebook all the time with my ipod but with that it's really annoying write the blog, so I'm not doing it. ;)
So last Thursday and Friday and this week I've been working in the daycare. Well, it's not really daycare, it's more "club", so the kids are not eating there, in the morning there are 2-3 years old kids for 2,5h and in the afternoon 4-5 years old kids for 2,5h. But I'm still working the normal 38h 15min!

And what else... Last week I went to watch a soccer game with my mom. I met my old friend Anni, we went for a coffee. And last weekend I went to Jyväskylä to visit my friend Essi! <3 We had fun weekend, we went to ride Essi's horse (well, I just walked) and we went to Essi's school friend's housewarming party! And after that we went to a club, it was really fun evening, but we were home already before 3am!

And I haven't been lazy, I've been going for gym! Today I was in zumba, and I've been going for some other classes also. I'm trying to go there three times per week!

I don't really remember what has been going on since I haven't been writing for so long. But I really would like to try continueing writing, I just need to write more often...

But tomorrow after work I'm going to take a train to Pasila, where I'm going to see my friend Jutta again! <3 She is going to pick me up from there and on Friday we are going to a consert to see one really good finnish band "Apulanta"! I'm so excited about that! And I'm going to stay in Lohja that weekend, coming back on Sunday when we are celebrating my sister's birthday!

And while I was writing this I was talking to America with my girl Steffi! <3 Finally! But I haven't had a change to talk with my hostfamily yet, that's driving me crazy! One day I was watching a video of my hostbaby and I almost started to cry :( I'm missing my American family and friends! <3
