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...

More later!
