maanantai:
Music class we had the weirdist 'jam' session... we each had an instrament, and symbol, then on the board she drew a big score and put our random symbols randomly. Then took a ruler and we played when her ruler was on our symbol... anything we wanted to play... and we recorded it... it sounded terrible!!! That recording should be made into a CD so we can burn it or at least break it into a billion shards... Study hall I went to the sewing class so I could work on my dress. It's coming along, and there were other students from the middle school there, and one of them was my next host sister Eeva, cool. English we had a test in the language studio... the room that reminds me of the room where they launch ships into outter space... everyone with their own spot and big set of headphones and microphone... cool. Last class of the day (sorta after schoolish) was dance practice, everyone was oddly in a fooling around mood. It was so funny and made practice so fun! Tonight my host sister now, Roosa found out that my cat Charliee, back home, has her own facebook. I didn't think it was that funny, but Roosa laughed about it for hours and called all her friends to laugh with them about it. LOVE YOU CHARLIEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

tiistai:
No school!!! It's test week, basically meaning loma (vacation) for all exchange students. I do take some tests but... really... But I did have work to do, blogging, and writing my history essay, and Exchange student things to take care of. There are actually more than you would think. Then rotary meeting! I always love those! But this time I didn't know what the presenter was talking about... he didn't have any written information up, which really helps me, but I also think he had an accent... But awsome time!

keskiviikko:
No school again! I found out that Phil the groundhog didn't see his shadow, which means spring is on it's way... but dose that mean for Finland too? I guess we will have to see, it's seems like it has been warmer lately, but the weather might just be playing a bait and switch on us. Band today, not too much exciting happened there. And I finally finnished my history essay at 10:00, which was good cause it was due tomorow. I think I work better in cruch time, cause there is no other ways but just to get it done.

torstai:
School again! We had dance practice after lunch. Before lunch I went to the sewing room and did more work on my dress. After practice most of my friends walked to town where there was a summer job fair going on. I went to Sanni's house. We had a plan to watch all the Fast and Furious movies so when the fifth one comes out in May or something, I will be all caught up. Those movies were actually really good! The 3rd one wasn't as up to parr with the others, but it was still pretty good. Went sledding for the first time in Finland!!! Sanni's little sister Silja and I climbed that hill many times! Sanni held the flashlight. haha SO much fun! Then time for bed... 11:00ish... haha yeah right I think it was around 3:30 when we actually did fall asleep. Sleepovers are the same here, you get very little sleep.

perjantai:
7:00 and we were up again. Caught the bus around 8:00ish, we almost had a 'snow day' because it did snow quite a bit yesterday, but the bus came. They don't actually have snow days here, because the school isnt resposible for getting you to school, but if your bus dosen't come, you get your own snow day. One of the perks of living so far away from school, except you still have to wake up and get out of to the bus stop to wait for the non-coming bus... Dance practice again, but today pretty much no one came. So practice ended early, and I again went to work on my dress. I worked for awhile, then it was time for the zipper. After ripping the same seam out 5 times, I decided I was too tired and ended for the day. Music practice for the test. In the test we have to recongize a number of pieces and write their names, composers, and period they come from. The teacher told me I had to go to this Sami people singing consert that was happening, so I got out of class a little early. The singing was really cool, I think the people put their own, more modern spin on it, but still very cool, ipod worthy! That evening, we went to a public sauna night at this place by a lake. There was a normal sauna, and then the more traditional sauna (smoke sauna) Then there was a dock to the lake, and they have a pump in that part of the lake to keep the water moving so it can't freeze. You get really hot in the sauna, then got to the dock, at that point you still were warm, then get in the water... You are then freezing! The jump out. Still cold... then you sorta dry off and you get really warm again. Then you go back into a sauna. Susanna got in the water twice, Juha, his brother, his brother's wife, and I went in four times, and the last time we jumped in the snow too, and made snow angels (that was the worst, like you were getten bitten by ice, and then you get stuck in the snow and can't get out) but still a lot of fun. Roosa had a fever, so she was just taking picture, proof pictures! Then home and grilling sausages on the fire. Yum!

lauantai:
Slept! And just hung out all day. You can always enjoy a chill day! We also ate musta makkara for lunch, yum (the black sausage I talk about once and awhile) Watched the whole serise(I know that word is spelt compleatly wronge, but decided just to write this note instead of looking up the correct way to spell it, yup, what word describe this action, cause it's not lazyness, cause this note is taking me longer to write than if I were just to look it up... idk you answer) *anyway* of 'Alex Days reads twilight' on Youtube, so he read the Twilight book chapter by chapter, and gave an overview of it, and his thoughts and things (he basically just made fun of the whole thing the whole time) It was really funny, and he had really good points! Then I found Chelsea Lately online, I used to stay up half an hour later every week night just to watch her, and now I remember why! Still one of my favorite shows!

sunnuntai:
Another chillish day, except in the evening we went to a comunity sports complex, type thing. And played Badmitten for an hour or so. Who would have thought you could work up a sweat doing that! Roosa and I hit against eachother, and Susanna and Juha. Then teams, Susanna and Roosa, vs. Juha and I. (We totally won!) There were very interesting people on the other courts... A bunch of 'oh no' moments, almost or actually worst then that guy who was wearing purple crocs, if Josh or Shelby is reading this... A big man with black shorts and white details... I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me, but at second glance it was definate, the white detail on the front, center of his shorts was a playboy bunny symbol... really.... really... oh man. Then headed home, a 20ish minute ride, I must be pretty out of shape because I was already sore from badmitten and could hardly get out of the car, and my hitting arm was hurting! Then I saw that Wipe out, that water obstical course where they make fun of the people too, was on but the UK version... The comments weren't as funny, but people falling off those big red balls will never get old!!! hahahaha Then skyped with Karah!!! Good week, music test tomorow... I should had studyed a bit more, but we'll see... : P
