Home again

Sorry I've been incredibly busy for a while now so I haven't had time to write here. But to update my daily life, I left the warm Australia 19th November and came back to this cold, grey and rainy Finland which still happens to be my home... So now here I am and I'm still trying to get used to this coldness.

This week's gone pretty fast. I've been to Helsinki a few times and then me and my little sister made a gingerbread Viking-ship to her school. 'Cause they have this kind of a market sale there today. Then last Wednesday I got to know that I have to write (again) an essay that's ten pages long and make a 20 minutes long presentation about my Australia -trip... And all that has to be done before 17 December and I have other life too! I'll be so busy... O' and I should also figure out very soon what I'm gonna do after New Year.. Can I go overseas again, do I go study something for few months or do I try to get a job. That last one would really be just trying... It's very difficult to get a job. Or a job that would be a nice one. '(-_-)'

But it's nice that now I can see my friends. About every week I'm gonna go somewhere to meet someone or then someone's gonna come here, and that's so fun. -(*.*)/

some things worth mentioning

I've finally realised a few career paths that are definitely not for me. Those are for example works where I have to 1. cook/bake, because even if I actually sometimes manage to make something good most of the time I just screw up. 2. take care of plants, I've even killed a cactus. 3. work hard outdoors, especially on summer that's horrible, there are a lot of bugs and it's so hot and I get all sweaty (yak) and I'm not physically strong enough for work like farming. 4. stare the computer whole day through, my eyes start to hurt at the end of the day. 5. be involved with sick people, if I see for example chickenpox I feel like vomiting, the same happens if I have to clean others' vomits etc. So yea, there are a few things I can't think of a career for me. I'm glad I've learned to know even that much! I would need a work that's very versatile, also because I get bored doing the same thing all the time.

 
The things you wish the most. (google)

You know, now being in Australia I've noticed the good things about Finland. I kind of knew that was gonna happen, or it usually happens to people when they go overseas for a longer time. They realise all the good things about their home country. But about Finland I really miss the winter right now. I'm actually more of a winter person, I love it. The cold weather that pinches your face when you go out, snow that makes this very funny squeaky sound under your feet, all the beautiful winter clothes and boots you can wear and of course when the air gets misty when you exhale. Winter is so beautiful time of the year. And this is something I already appreciated in Finland: sunshine. Here it's something these people can take for granted but it's definitely not the same in my country. Here it's sunny almost everyday and you're like 'oh okay, it's sunny again today' but in Finland you're like 'oooh! It's sunny! Let's go out.' I also love Finnish spring, or maybe I could just say I'm a fan of four different seasons in a year. All in all I've found Finland a very good country to live in, despite the long dark season on autumn... But here the biggest problem for me is the heat and humidity. And it's only starting to get warm! Maybe I'm just too Finnish to like sunbathing on the beach. Plus I like my white skin and I burn too easily. -(ü.ü)/ But there's at least two things I would really like to change about Finland. People should be more open and just talk to each others, even to the strangers. And also outside bars. And that shouldn't be considered weird. The other thing is the way men dress up... Because in Finland so many men really have no sense of even a bit stylish way to dress. No, no-one needs to look like a model but it would be so great if some men would see even the tiniest bit of effort to not look like a garbage bag (sorry my brutal way of saying this). Luckily there are also always exceptions, and especially when you go closer to the capital area. But yea, it's really none of my business to say what people should look like. That was just my opinion. ;) But in my defence, most guys want to see pretty girls/women and just so you know, we usually spend some amount of time in the morning to make ourselves look even decent. So I don't think it's too much to expect the same from men.

Anyway, everyone who hasn't been to Finland, please go there, even once in your life! Because that country is beautiful. Yes we don't have mountains like Norway has and we don't have a gorgeous ocean but there are many other things in Finland. You just need to look at things the right way. (that actually doesn't sound like a good salesman speech... -(^.^')- ) But I think that way you can find beauty where-ever you are.
