Christmas and more :)

...

I arrived in Finland on the 3rd of December to Helsinki with Viking Line m/s Gabriella. I slept late on the boat, I was in no hurry to go anywhere, the boat was staying in Helsinki until the afternoon... I took the tram to the City train station and the bus number 248 to Leppäsillantie, where the Temple is and where my aunt works. I went to the Temple and went to my aunt's appartment with my aunt when she finished work.

On the following day, there was the Independence Day dance in Helsinki for young single adults of the church. It was fun. I had on a stunning dress and I got free make-up and a free hair-do, because I had bought products from the Center in Helsinki.

Later when I was in Espoo still at my aunt I went one day to town and to the movies with my friend Asko who is my good friend. We had lots of fun. We went to eat afterwards. It has become a tradition to always go to the movies when I come there.

Then after a week at my aunt I came to Tampere and I spent time with my friends Kirppu, Leo, Tuulikki, Hanna, Anni, Tanja and Kirsi. I've been twice to the movies already and many times out to eat. I have colored my hair partially pink. Just for the fun of it.

More later!

More Christmas time... ;)

...

Hi!

Yesterday or I should say today, I couldn't fall asleep before 3 a.m. So I couldn't go to church to ten a.m. I was too tired. I woke at 10.30 ish and got to the church around 12.30. I met my Bishop and many of my friends. We sang Christmas Carols and members held speeches about Christmas.

Yesterday I went to the ward's Christmas Party. It was fun. I danced a polonaise with my friend Elisa. Today my Mom and my Aunt went to my Grand-mother in Jakobstad. I stayed behind with my Dad.

Tomorrow I'm going to visit Kirppu. On Tuesday I'm seeing my friend Veronica.

X-mas time... :P

...

Hi.

I came back to Finland on the 3rd of December. We had a dance in Helsinki on the 4th and I met many of my friends there. Yes, it was fun and yes, there were many very special people there. Special to me, that is. Like Asko Felin and my friend Lara. And also a surprise... It was nice.

Anyway, I spent a week in the Helsinki area and then I came to Tampere. On Thursday, the next day since I arrived here, I went shopping with one of my best friends, Kirppu (my old classmate) and then I met my friend Leo and had a long chat. It is good to see friends.

On Friday I went to the movies with Kirsi and on Saturday we had an awesome Christmas Party at the Outreach Center and there were many of my friends... Andreas, Santtu, Naba and Lissu etc. On Sunday I went to Lahti with my Dad and the Myllylät to the meetings there and then to the Christmas Carol concert at an old church in the evening with my Dad.

Today my Mom comes home.

Hi there...

I'm sitting here at my dad's desk in the "office" in my Tampere-home here in Finland, listening to Céline and looking out the window, wondering how mean people can be. Seriously. Well. I'll just have to say: I won't judge them, who knows, they might be handicapped in the brain or something and I will let God judge between us. To be honest, I think neither of us has done much wrong, except for them because they judged me... And pretty harshly at that...

Anyway. There's no point in thinking about idiots. They will always exist.

Today I've been playing Pet Society most of the day. It's FUN!!! :D

hi

...

A couple of weeks ago my best friend stopped being my best friend.

Reason:

She thinks I am a bad person and I have the wrong opinions.

Okay. So I am a bad person because of these reasons:

1. I visit her, go to the movies with her and entertain her and write her letters. She sits in a wheelchair, so she doesn't get around much. So, obviously, I must be evil.

2. I am friends with everyone, not just the good churchies.

3. I use the word "Heterosexual" now, THAT's pure evil, is it not?

Well, people are free to judge and to do whatever they want.

Today I wrote her an email because I had had enough. I am trough playing the "evil one"... I don't want her to think that my silence means that she is right about me, because she is not. Or maybe it is just her Mom... Well, I wrote her little sister and I hope she can sort things out.

Keep your fingers crossed!

Dear reader,

I have got the flu. Some kind of normal flu, I think. Anyway, because I have this flu, I'm going to Finland tomorrow morning with Viking Line and spend LOTS and LOTS of quality time with my Dad and my Friends over there...

I LOOOVE FINLAND!!!

Mulla on niin kylmä ilman sua...

...

Sorry, this one's in Finnish... ;)

Voi kökköti kökkö. Yiruma soi taustalla. "River flows in you". Mulla on Youtube randomilla mun suomifiilis soittolista ja just kun mun piti rupeman tätä kirjoittaman niin sieltä tulleepi tää laulu... :P Kylläpä on hauskaa... LOL <-ironiaa

Elämä on.

death might seem like a dream..."

or swallowing a big secret.
It's you and me -amplified.

or wished you could be a child forever...

but they were my friends
and there doesn't go one day,

When the schnecken beckons... ;)

...

I'm in the mood of watching "Birdcage"... I just LOVE miss Albert!!! He's the quintessential gay kinda man who dresses up as a lady each night and I just cannot help but love him, every time he pops up on my screen. He's so cute.

That does not mean I only love gay men. How can a woman do that? They do not prefer me. I need a real man. OK. Anyways... I'm angry at a guy right now. He's a Finn. He's not a mormon. That should give away enough information for the persons closest to me to figure out who he is. He likes beer. We've been out on dates. NOW you know.

I just don't understand him. That's no reason to hate him. I'm just very angry at him. He left things in the middle. No ending. We had a pretty good start. Better than I've ever had. OK, he was drunk. Anyways. I deserve MAYBE something better than what I got in the end. No nothing.

I need to deal with everything in my life, or I might loose my voice, my mind or start hurting myself. I need "closure", like Chicken Little did!!! It's no joke. And with this guy: NO CLOSURE.

There was not exactly no closure with another guy either... But that's classified.

Happy thoughts...

...

That topic was meant to be ironic.

I feel tired all the time now. I wake up too early. I need coke light to stay awake. I take caffeine pills sometime. Life sucks. Big time. I love that old love song "The Rose", where it says: "Sometimes love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed". Because that's just what this stupid love's gone and done with me this time. And it did involve a razor -two times. Mr. O, that stupid canuck, he's NOTHING compared to this. He's a little pidgeon fart. This one's a freaking hurricane... I didn't bleed last time. I just scratched off the surface. Well. I have my doctor. Bosse. And my curator. And my Ward, if it gets that bad.

Bye.

September 2.nd

Hello again.

My very personal own Hogwarts in this world is located on Stadshagen in the city of Stockholm. Don't think it's in any way in the suburbs, because it ain't. It is in a red brick building, on the fourth floor and is thus very abtly named "Ward 4". There we have the most wonderful people working for the healthcare in the entire world, if you ask me. And now most of them are going to be transferred down to Ward 2, so "next time" I'm going there... Fredrick is working on Ward 5 now, so I won't see HIM anymore, but anyways. There's always the Rock, the Hazelnut, the one who looks like my uncle and mr. M with post-ironic-humour... Once I said to him: "mr. M, DARLING, they're letting me out!" and he responded, very seriously: "But, my love, what shall we do?" or the Swedish version of that, that is. ;) I have never been called that by any man. Not "Lilla hjärtat". It was so cute. Though we both knew he was kidding. And he's not my darling, either. I had 5-7 DARLINGS on Ward 4... ;)

My vampire. A guy. He's nice. We're a very odd pair of friends. We can talk about ANYTHING. Yes, all kinds of stuff and he's only let me down once. And that was probably my own doing. I set myself up that time. Still hurts though...

The dream. Last night. Wish I didn't have it. Made me all fuzzy inside again, for the vampire...

OK.

...

Hi there...

Happy September! Hope you have a goos one!

Love, Cindarella

Hi.

Hello.

I worked 34 hours during three days at the European Youth Olympic Festival in the Polish house. Now I love a whole new people. The Polish. They are Wonderful... More about that LATER...

Then, on the 27th of July I traveled with the Finns to Denmark with a Bus... I got a special place to sleep, since I am a special person. It didn't help. I ended up at another place with two of the leaders the night between Thursday and Friday and then on Friday we left early. Didn't have to watch mr. Wrong dance with ms. Wrong all night.

On Monday third of August I went to the hospital. HUZZAH! ;) I got to see my Rock and my Fredrick... My Enrico and Hasse... For 22 days. And got a very good friend just by switching rooms twice.

Yep.

And in July, I'm going to the Great Meat Market to Denmark -Fest i Nord- where all the YSA's meet and dance and have fun for five days... BUT! I'm not going there to look for a man... NO NO NO... I never look for a man there anyways and now I kinda have a crush on someone... And I don't want to loose that. NO.

So, I'm going there just to be with my girlies and my friends.

Here are the top things on my mind today:

1. My Friend who is having an operation today

2. Leo

3. Canada

4. Moving back to Finland

5. Céline Dion (since she's singing in my ears)

6. Looove...

7. The things in my handbag ;)

8. Pepsi Max

9. SuperNova

10. My cousin Sebastian :)

My FD Blog stopped working altogether so this is now officially my one and only Main Blog.

You better believe it. (Like Céline just wailed in my ear ;)

Blowing off some steam...

...

Here are the most annoying thing in my life:

PEOPLE WHO ARE MEAN

People who critizise, don't think about what they say, push others down, say mean things, are predjudice, judgmental etc. I CANNOT STAND people who judge other people. I'm not saying I never jugde anyone but I TRY not to judge anyone. And guess who are the easiest people not to judge? They who do not judge me.

Empty Room

...

Hi.

There's this amazing singer in Finland, his name is Antti Tuisku and I've like only heard one of his songs but I LOOOVE it!!! It's called "Tyhjä huone" which means "Empty room". I listen to it a lot on youtube...

Sorry that I have neglected my duties to write in this blog this month but hey, it's the summer! I've been busy! I'm in Finland now... Midsummer celebration was GRRREAT!!! I went to Kuru, to my friend's parent's house, where a lot of other churchies where gathered and we ate some smoked fish, sausages, salad, marshmellows (I'd brought those) -roasted them, pancakes etc. Irina and I talked a long while and drank together coke light. THAT was the BEST part of the evening. Seriously.

Yesterday I went walking to church and I walked with my friend Tuulikki for a while and went to visit her. We watched Oprah. Then I went to FHE. I couldn't really concentrate because of one of my friend who has this "magic" power to confuse me though he's just a friend... We fall a part a lot. If you don't understand what that means, I'm sorry, coz I can't explain it without telling too much about the whole thing. And we wouldn't want that now, would we?

My Mom's coming to visit us today. She's been to my grandparents in Jakobstad and now she's coming at 12 to Tampere. YES!!! Finally! I've missed my Mum. She's the BEST! I couldn't have got a better mom, and that's saying a lot, since I was adopted...

Life is life! Na na na na naa... :P

...

Today I chose my clothes for Fest i Nord. I chose with care. All my newest, finest, best dresses and skirts. There won't be a day at Fest i Nord when I won't wear a skirt or a dress. But that's the new me! ;)

Yesterday I got a new phone... Nokia 6220 Classic. It's WAY cool... It's SO much better than my old one, but my old one looked kinda prettier... But now I can take better pics, listen to the radio better etc. My old headphones didn't work... I used to have a Nokia N73. Which I totally loved.

Tomorrow it's off to do the laundry and on Sunday a "small"ish trip... ;)

P.S. I really dig Leo... <3

This is it.

...

Today's the day...

Jannice and I slept until 8.45 and ate breakfast on the balcony. Then I took a pic of her in her Marathon outfit and she had to go, because her parents were waiting outside with their car and they were going to the Stadium. I wasn't ready to go just yet so I had to stay home... :-(

Yesterday my best friend in Sweden, Cecilia, came to see me and we talked, laughed and ate a little. Took a lot of pics and listened to H.I.M. Then Jannice came and we catched up on each other newest news and went almost straight to bed. We were really tired. Jannice got the priviledge of sleeping on the couch. Cecilia went home.

Hmm...

...

Hi.

I'm not quite sure anymore. I'm sorry. I'm a bit ambivalent. Like a typical Gemini should be...

Anyway... Today I woke at 07.30 when my mother came via my place to hang up my new curtains. Then I went to Skansen with Basti, he is my cousin and with his girlfriend Mia. We had FUN!!! :D We took pics of pigs, moose and ourselves... We walked all three of us hand in hand. ;) For goodnessake, he's my COUSIN! And I don't have brothers so he is my brother and I often walk hand in hand with his sisters. We are really REALLY openminded. If you only knew...

Ok. Yesterday I woke at 06.22, called Basti the Best and we met up at a café and came to my place for a while. I fed Basti, he was hungry. Poor thing. Then they came by in the afternoon again and then I fed them both.

Tonight my other cousin, Basti's bigsister is coming to town.

Tomorrow is Stockholm Marathon!!! Basti and Jannice (the bigsister) are going to participate.

Hi...

Well... On Saturday we had SOME Party @ Taina's... It was almost better than my Bday party, only that Leo wasn't there... So, if Leo had been there, it would had been better. If you get my drift. ;) We ate, we took some way way WAY crazy pics and we sang karaoke all together. Love was in the air. Friendship Love. Man, I miss those friends already like CRAZY!!!

I'm gonna post some crazy pics here, if my friends don't mind, hope they don't...

lauantai 23. toukokuuta 2009

There comes a time...

...

Ok...

It was my Bday yesterday. I turned 29. That's good, because with age, comes wisdom. Or so they say. *lol* I started off by pretending to sleep until my Dad wakes me up by singing in Finnish that I grew up, a beautiful girl, in the home of her Father. He gave me my favorite breakfast -cucumbers and gave me a high quality diary. Then I sat at the computer for a while. Planned my day, which was pretty much planned already. Boy, was I wrong...

Then I got calls from friends and my Mom who's now in Sthlm. A text from my cousin. LOTS of Bday wishes on Facebook and FD... From Louis Herrey himself, even. He's my good friend. If you don't believe me then don't.

Then I went to the foodstore, bought a sixpack of 1.5 litre coke light x-tra brand from Sweden, walked to Stockmann and requested an order of a CD I want to buy. Then Kirppu came to meet me, we walked on and we met a bunch of her and our mutual friends and we head over to the "Koskenranta" i.e. the place next to the river that goes trough Tampere.

They drink something stronger, I drink my coke. Kirppu drinks coke until I give her permission to start drinking, she respects me. Leo shows up. Later, my Good Friend Annu stops by and gives me a flower and from her and her son a card and two big bags of candy. I just love them.

Annu stays a little while and the party goes on even after she's gone.

The rest will remain a mistery. Not to me, but to you. I drank too much of that darn coke light. But I behaved. And I realized something VERY important. 'Nuff said.

Ooh... ;)

...

Hi!

If some of you are awaiting some juicy details from the YSA conference last weekend -forget it. Ha ha! I'm so cruel. And I enjoy it. Today it's time for the Young Ambassadors performance in my home town, Tampere. I'm going with three friends.

Yesterday I was so tired after the weekend I almost slept trough church... Honestly!

Not funny.

On Friday I went to collect my friend at the railwaystation and we walked into town, ate at Subi (Subway in Finnish), and visited the library before going to the school where the YSA conference was about to start. We were way early of course.

I didn't have to say which ward or what my name was, Miisa knows me. You had to sign up, you know. We had some stand-up comedy and then some line-dancing. I didn't line-dance... Then the disco started. *heavy censorship* *BEEP* <- NOT a swearword! I think I *BEEP a BEEP*... *BEEP*! <- Word of anger, not a swearword! I *BEEPED the BEEP a BEEP*... *BEEP*

OK. Enough humor. Even I, after a week or so, won't know what the heck I meant.

Anyway. This was a great conference.

On Saturday I walked with Linda to the bookstore near by and she bought a book for me as a Birthday present! Sophie Kinsella: "Remember me?" I'v already started reading it. It's great.

It's spring-time for Cindy and Tampere... ;)

...

Hi...

My computer has seen it's best days. Even after it's check-up and fix-up it sometimes just goes and dies on me when I'm writing this blog. How depressing. It really makes me discouraged. I don't feel like writing everything AGAIN... Sorry.

The sun is shining, I'm going out with some friends to play with Laura-Carin's kids and our mutual friend is also coming with us. We're maybe going to the local mall and then maybe to the park outside my house. The good thing about Finland is -lots of forests and parks etc.

I don't really live in Finland. I live in Stockholm, the capitol of Sweden. But I visit here often, especially in the summer and in the spring... I just have so many friends here... I don't want to live without them for too long. And my old school. It means a lot to me.

The Beach, My First fridge Poem, Flowers on Palomäentie...



Spring, poetry, flowers etc.

...

Hi!

I've started writing fridge poetry. My first poem was in English, since the magnets were in English at my friends' place in Åbo. Then I bought some magnets for myself and they didn't have any in English so first I bought one general in Swedish and one with the theme "Romance" in Finnish. Then, after a few poems I went and bought two more packages of magnets in Finnish, with the themes "Original" and "Party"... So I have like 8-10 poems on my fridge here in Tampere and one on Veronica's and Mika's in Åbo. When I go back home to Sweden, I'm going to take with me all my magnets and start over. I've taken pics of every poem.

It's been such great weather here. Like 20 degrees celcius almost daily... And sunny... :)

There's flowers almost everywhere, grass, small leaves on the trees and bugs. I don't like bugs.

Sunday <3

...

Yesterday was Grreat!!!

I woke around 7.30 a.m. Got up, took care of my pet society pet, took a shower, put too much mousse in my hair and put on my Sunday-clothes... Took the buses to church, talked with friends before meetings, participated in Relief Society, Sunday school Class for Young Adults and then Sacrament meeting. Met my friend Tuomo, kissed three babies and played face-hide-and seek with one of the babies. Got a calling.

Came home, took a nap, did my things on the internet etc.

Wappu Part Two :D

...

All morning and most of the afternoon I stayed at home. Then in the evening I felt I wanted to go out with some of my friends. I called everyone. One girl hang up on me! How rude! Just because she was probably drunk and didn't remember me.

Anyway... I called Helena, my old good friend, and they were down by the river drinking. I bought myself a Cola Light bottle (1.5 liters) and some salmiakki (candy) and went down to be the only sober person in sight.

We sat and talked with Helena, her friends, who are fun, they really made my day, eventhough they were just a tad too drunk. ;) I got a lot of hugs and everyone was proud of me for standing up for my standards.

Then we walked back towards both Helena's and my home, we live close by. Leo made my day. Then I went home, exhausted. The others passed out soon after that.

Wappu Part One ;)

...

On Thursday I met my dear friend Kirsi at Subway and we went by bus into town and changed buses and arrived in good time at the church for the party. Santtu came also earlier than usual. He has a driver's licence now, maybe that's the reason. :p We talked, laughed and joked around until the Aholas came to open the door for us.

There were quite a few people there. Some came and went. Most came and stayed. Kirsi and I sang some karaoke, so did many others. I sang My Heart Will Go On and Because You Loved Me. Both Céline songs, of course. ;) We drank a lot of mead, non-alcoholic, and ate donuts etc. I took a lot of pics.

Santtu drove me home, he became my very own supernova. :D

Pre-Wappu Part Two ;)

...

On Tuesday morning I got up as early as 07.45 a.m. so I could call my old school and ask when it would be a good time for me to visit that day. I arrived at the school around 11.00. I talked with most of my ex-teachers and participated in English class and later in Music class. I had SO MUCH FUN!!! I love my teachers... They're the BEST! <3

Well... That was pre-wappu part two. ;)

Pre-Wappu Part One :)

...

Hi there! ;)

I came to Finland last Friday, last week, that is. I stayed in Turku until Monday afternoon. I stayed at Liisa the cow and Niina the chick -I'm the pig. They're our private nicknames... :) Well, maybe not that private. On Saturday I went to town and then by bus to the outreach center witch is located at the church and we watched Lord of the Rings -All the Extended versions. I saw half of the second and my favorite, the last, completely... Afterwards we continued with my friends by going to get some pizza and hanging out at Niina's and Liisa's place.

Then on Sunday I went to the Lutheran church with my Lutheran friends and then to my own church. Met some good old friends. :) Then it was off to Veronica's and Mika's place, we ate and watched a movie.

On Monday I wrote a poem with word-magnets on their fridge in English. Veronica and I did some shopping. Then I came here, home to Tampere.

Sorry, I gotta stop now. I woke at 5.00 a.m. today...

PJ-Party @ my place :)

...

Hi there.

Yesterday I cleaned my place like a maniac for hours, since my two "home-supporters" were coming to visit me for the last time, to terminate our contact, since I can now take care of my own business. I washed the dishes, vacuumed, dusted, arranger my Barbies on their glass-shelves, organized my DVD:s etc. Finally, when I was done, they stayed maybe fifteen minutes and they didn't even check if it was that clean here or not...

Then I went to see my optician again, chose my final two pairs of glasses and put in my order for my new glasses, which will be ready in about two weeks, but I'll be back from my trip on the 25th of May. I'll post some pics here of me in my new glasses then after I get them. They're SO cool!!!

Then I rushed to the foodstore, got a lot to eat for me and my friend Cecilia and took the subway home, Cecilia arrived just after I got home and we talked, ate, watched a movie, told jokes, made up about 25 jokes of our own and fell asleep about 12 a.m. ish.

Today we woke around 9.40 a.m. and started laughing at our funny jokes, I did some stuff on Facebook, Cecilia read a book, we listened to some music and ate breakfast. Now she's at Seven Eleven getting herself some lunch and us something good to eat -chocolate pastries, kind off... Then we're gonna watch a movie.

Yesrterday I sent a text to my friend Huseyin in Turkey, he is a REALLY good friend and the minute the text has reached him, he calls me! I was on the subway and couldn't hear what he said, so I called later back to him and asked when he is moving to Denmark to live with his girlfriend and he says six months. He asks me when I can come visit him in Turkey. I say to him, I'm trying to save money. But today I found out I'm getting over 10 000 crowns back in taxes, so now, after I've payed back some of my debts, I can go visit Huseyin and he has promised me he will find me a good Turkish man, just as good as himself. :)

Waiting... ;)

Hi.

My friend Cecilia is coming to visit me tonight again. We met like less than a month ago and already we're Best Friends... I haven't had a real best friend, who I can see this often in YEARS!!! And the next one after this will probably be my hubby, whoever that will be. ;) Cecilia is great.

Today I woke at 07.17 a.m. and called directly to the place where you find out people's phone numbers. I got this idea, I could get lessons from my OTHER English teacher, since the Best Teacher in the World wasn't available... Who is the Best Teacher in the World? Henrik Aaltonen, of course. He's been my favorite teacher for about 18 years now... He's simply the BEST. And the fact that he teaches English doesn't make it worse, it just makes it better, since it's ALWAYS been my favorite subject at school...

Tomorrow I'm going to have my eyesight checked, since I've picked out two pairs of glasses, that I'm going to buy and they're going to be ready by the time I get back from Finland at the end of May. They're SO cool...

I'm going to see Cecilia on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and on Thursday I'm going to do my taxes and my laundry, on Friday morning it's off to Finland!!! ;) Finally!!! :)

lauantai 18. huhtikuuta 2009

I think I need another... Yawn...

...

My doctor prescribed me 1-3 caffeine pills per day and this morning I've been so dead-beat, I've already taken two... I took one as soon as I got up and one a minute ago. Hope it starts working soon. ;) Bless these little pills, they're a lifesaver... Trully.

Yesterday my new Best Girl Friend visited me and we watched a Swedish movie about a vampire in the Stockholm -area. I don't remember what it's called in English. It's GOOD. I've read the book twice in Swedish, of course. The author is one of my favorites...

Tomorrow is going to be SO great, when I have my pills. No yawning in church this Sunday! :D

I'm gonna go to my own ward first, in town and then to Västerhaninge to my friends ward in the afternoon. I have to buy some snacks, so I'll survive the day... It's gonna be a looong day. But I'll survive.

I got nine new DVDs yesterday:

Australia

Burn after reading

27 dresses

Quantum of solace

Madagascar 2

Låt den rätte komma in (the vampire movie from Sweden)

Mamma Mia!

The Bourne Ultimatum

Ocean's Thirteen

I haven't seen them all yet. I mean at all. Ever. So I have to have some cool movie nights with my friends when we all have time. :) I have a BIG TV... The guy who lives upstairs always listens to music REAL loud ALL the time, in the morning, in the middle of the night -anytime, anyday... So I take my revenge anytime this happens and put Finnish music with sad lyrics, or e.g. Lordi REAL loud, so I won't have to listen to his beat... He also plays some kind of trumpet, the guitar and other instruments, jumps around so that my lamp (crystal lamp in the living room) starts to jingle... lol.

Well, that's all for now.

Muahahaaa.... ;)

...

Hi there! ;)

Here's the rub. I went to see my shrink today. I told him I have a VERY hard time staying awake in the day without drinking A LOT of coke zero or pepsi max, and since I've stopped drinking that shite, I've been tired ALL THE TIME... So, we thought about it a mo' and I asked, could he prescibe me some coke zero? No, he said, but there's something called "Caffeine pills"!!! So, he prescribed me one hundred pills, 100 mg/pill and I can take up to three pills a day... So, when were done talking I RAN to the drugstore and got them. I took one a mo' ago and BOY o' BOY are they somethin'!!! I feel like I can fly! ;) I feel filled with energy, vigour, power, ability, intelligence -everything I need to study, do everything I need to leed a normal life! Finally! Blessed little pills! <3

Then I took a brake in my coke zero/pepsi max -strike and went and bought myself a 1.5 liter pepsi max -bottle and it's already as good as gone... ;) To celebrate my new caffeine pills and that it's Friday and that my new Best Girl Friend is coming over to watch movies... Sorry, I had to drink pepsi max today. It's so sunny outside! It's warm, I wore my summer 2008 -shoes yesterday and today and only a knitted sweater kinda thing -no hat, no gloves, no scarf...

I LOOOVE Stockholm in the Spring!!!

This is going to be the BEST Spring and Summer EVER!!! I've found a new friend in Finland, we're going to go to a happenin' in the summer, where I know nobody else, so I hope he'll introduce me to all the others... We're going to swim, go to the Sauna, maybe go even out dancin'... It's going to be GREAT.

And I was a FOOL fallin' for those younger guys. From now on, if someone under 30 tries to hit on me, I'm gonna say: "In your dreams, Buster!" ;) Really. They're SO immature. How could I ever liked someone who's like 25 or 23??? I was a COMPLETE IDIOT!

And in the Fall I'm going back to the English Department at the University of Stockholm, study a little Linguistics, with these new caffeine pills it's going to go swell... I didn't get those private lessons but I'll use my brain REAL hard and memorize the books from cover to cover and write down EVERY SINGLE WORD the teachers say at the lectures -it'll work out just fine.

Where do I find all this optimism? I guess it's the caffeine speaking, or the fact that the sun is shining through my open balcony door, or that I'm listening to the best male singer in the WORLD -Jari Sillanpää, from Finland. I LOVE JARI!!! ;)

Hi.


...


I'm waiting for my friend to show up. We're gonna watch a movie or just sit and talk, maybe eat some cake and drink some herbal tea. I'd better call her soon if she doesn't show up. I'm listening to my mp3-player via my cd-player and now Meryl Streep is pouring her heart out... "The winner takes it all"... It makes me think of my ex-boyfriend. I don't know which of us ended up the winner, probably him. At least he is handsome and thin. I'm fat and I have Aspergers and ADHD... But that's not neccessarily THAT bad, I mean, I've heard that Bill Gates has Aspergers. I don't know if it's true or not.


I miss my old teachers at Svenska Samskolan, especially Henrik and Lipi... Lipi always gives me a BIG hug when I show up and she is so fun to talk to. Henrik is probably the smartest person I've EVER met. Henrik is the English teacher, Lipi is the Music teacher and they are married.


I feel like my life is going EXACTLY where it's supposed to be going. I've never felt like this before. It's weird.


More later.

Vielä yks... ;)

...

Mulla lopahti vähän toi fd-blogi mut ajattelin, et tää saa korvata sen. Toivottavasti sopii teille fd-ihmisille... :)

Terkkuja Turust... ;)

...

Moi!

Terkkuja Suomen Varsinaisesta Pääkaupungista.

Täällä sitä tallustellaan tipun ja lehmän seurassa. (Niina = Tipu, Liisa = Lehmä, Minä = Possu :) Tämä kaikki sai alkunsa kun mielestäni Lissulle sopii Lehmä-paita ja sanoin sen ääneen ja Nynskillä sattui olemaan tipun väriset vaatteet, sillähän onhan vielä vähän pääsiäinen, ja mulla on juuri possun värinen paita. Eli me ollaan kaikki syötäviä, hyödyllisiä ja söpöjä. Joo.

Tää olis pitäny pistää fd:lle oikeesti...

Tulisko musta kuitenkin kirjailija? ;) Se olis hauskaa... Ihan mielenkiintoista työtä ja sitähän mä teen eniten elämässäni, kirjoitan...

Minulla on hyviä ja huonoja uutisia. Huonot ensin. En saa yksityis tunteja Maailman Parhaalta Opettajalta... Hyvät sitten. Olen silti Suomessa melkein koko kesän. Teen joko Harry Potter kurssin tai jatkan syksyllä enkun opintojani. Eli "hyvä hyvä", niinkuin Santtu sanois... :)

Turku on ihan kiva kaupunki. Jyväskylä on paras, mutta kyllä Turkukin kelpaa. Miks Jyväskylä on paras? Olin siä kaks viikkoo mini-lähetystyössä 1997 ja mulla on siellä ja sieltä paljon ystäviä. Se on ikuisesti mun lempikaupunki nro. 1.

Good morning...

...

I woke at about 4.25 a.m. Finnish time and now I cannot sleep. Great. Just when I have to prepare a lesson for Sunday and meet my good friend for dinner in the afternoon. I'm gonna be SO dead beat. Especially on Sunday. Yawn!

I'm sorry if some truths in this blog are too shocking. Truth is in the eye of the beholder, they say. And I see a lot. And I'm not afraid to tell the truth either.

I'm listening to my mp3Player on random. Lots of Céline. She's the best. So is Canada. <3

On the 18th I'm going to town with my friend Annelie. We're going to the movies if we have the time but we're definitly going to shop and eat out.

Then it's back to Finland again and to celebrate first of May with my dear friends here in Tampere. Party party! ;)

More later.

Greetings from Finland...

Hi there!

I finally got blogger working on my cell phone. But I won't write a long text today. I'm in Finland celebrating Easter with my family.

Tomorrow I'll see a good old friend of mine, whom I haven't seen for about ten years. About time. :)

Today I went to see my good friend Kirsi and her father and her cat. We played Skip-Bo and listened to some music.

I can't wait for the summer! But I guess you knew that already.

More later.

I'm bAAAck... ;)

Well,

It's been a while... To put it mildly. SO much crap has gone down. And up. Depends on how you look at it. Last year was an emotional rollacoster ride for me. Trully. I went up and down and sideways, upside-down at times it seemed... Freak. Yet, I survived. I wasn't so sure about that at one point.

In May I went to Turkey and met lovely Heidi and her fiancé -Huseyin, and of course -Ferruh. Before I went to Turkey I had the most lovely time in Tampere with the Young Adults from the church. Vappu was The Best. I bet this Vappu can't beat last Vappu.

Then there was Midsummer at Ilkka's cottage, with Santtu, Sami, Visa, Ilkka and some missionaries (sisters) -and Ville of course. (Palomäki.) Visa, Ilkka and me were on our way to become better friends than we've ever been before -and so we are now.

Then there was the incident with the Canadian. Don't want to talk about it.

At the end of THAT story, I was at the St. Görans Hospital, for eight days, trying not to kill myself. So, Thanks a lot, Canada! No, I don't hate Canada, anymore. I love Céline Dion and she's from Canada, so who could hate Canada forever? :)

In January I made a long-awaited visit to my Old Dear School. Svenska Samskolan i Tammerfors. <3 I participated in a class with both my favorite teachers -Henrik and Lipi, and I got to shape up my Cha-cha skills a little... ;) Then I got a Great Big Hug from Lipi and she said I was welcome to come watch the Oldies dance on the 13th of February 2009!!! Well, I thought I couldn't make it but I MADE myself MAKE IT. I took 30 pics, danced with Henrik (a waltz) and got all the names of my old class mates, since me and my other class mate are going to invite everyone to the "Teaterbalen" 2010!!! WOW!!!

On the same night as the wonderful oldies dance at SST, I left for Helsinki and celebrated Valentine's Day with my friends at a church dance at Haga church. We had FUN! Then I met Asko again in church and asked of his father that had Asko enjoyed my letters? Pertti said: He likes them very much, they are all still on his telly. How touching...

And off I went to Jakobstad, my town of birth.

Almost every single day, my two cousins: Basti and Wille, would have time to be with me. Basti stayed the night or I'd stay at their place, we'd go to a café, to Subway, shopping for clothes, to grab a pizza -something. And they always had the time for me. I love them...

In March I came back home to Stockholm.

I started going to Institute again. I met a GREAT new friend -Cecilia, who I meet many times a week. Next Monday I'm going on a cruise with my mom to Helsinki and we're going to spend the day with my aunt Ann-Britt there and shop etc.

I have BIG plans for the summer. I'm REALLY hoping that my ex-English teacher will give me private lessons in Syntax, Phonetics, Semantics etc. so that I can pass that exam this fall. I know he could help me do it. He is like the Best Teacher in the World...
