Wind changes - so do I

Hey!

It's been a few months since I last wrote here, I've been incredibly busy and a lot has happened. So now is the time to give you some updated news.

First of all, the most important news that already a few people know but for most people probably come as a surprise: I am moving back to Finland with my boyfriend this summer. So the whole thing started around last Christmas when I was thinking of transferring my school to Finland and it seemed like a huge process and everything but we decided to give it a try. In April I went for a two-week "holiday" to Finland and had my entrance examination for Haaga-Helia, which I passed and was officially accepted as a student for next autumn. So here I come again Finland, but this time not alone. It is in a way sad to leave England 'cause I've made some good friends here but then again this doesn't need to mean the end for those relationships (hopefully...). England itself I'm not actually gonna miss... I'm not that big of a fan of wind and rain and humidity. This country is cold... haha.

It is going to be quite a change for us, especially for my boyfriend who hasn't lived in Finland yet, only visited it a few times. I'm just hoping everything will go well and we will get an apartment, both of us will get jobs and we can adapt to living in Finland. It might be a bit difficult even for myself as everything I've done on a daily basis for the last two years I've done in English. It has become my main language and Finnish is just the second one. For my boyfriend adapting will be a bit more difficult as he doesn't speak Finnish and at least some of our (Finnish) customs are very different from his or British. We'll see how it goes, I'll keep you posted.

Buuuut, before the whole moving in Finland there are many things to happen and a lot of things to do. I have started going to gym about four times per week and I'm hoping to go five or six times but that will happen gradually, not too much at once. I feel really good about going to gym, it gives me energy and my body feels a lot better. I guess I caught a fitness-bug. But I have fun at gym in some weird way, it is enjoyable, and I get so motivated when I see changes in myself. Also my boyfriend is my motivator when he comes to gym with me. It's nice to go there with someone and not always just alone. Although, there is a thing I find weird and kind of annoying. No matter how much I push myself I cannot feel it in my muscles the next day. And I love the muscle pain after workout, it makes me feel I have actually done something. So I don't know if I need to use heavier weights or just do more sets...

Also, I will finish this semester in Bournemouth University at the end of May and later in June we will go to Romania again. We have an important wedding to go to and hopefully have some rest and sun for the rest of the time. From there we will move to Finland, about in August. Now is time to finish my school work and pass all the units, I get credits from them to Haaga-Helia and I can graduate from there quicker. It would be nice to work outside but English weather doesn't really look that enjoyable. Maybe, hopefully, summer will come here too before we leave the country.

Till the next time! Have a good rest of the week.


We have had some good days too :)

I want to share a quote with you that I came across a few days ago:
