Meetings, music and more :)

...

Last weekend was a really busy one. On Friday I went to Institute, where we were taught by Armi and I was happy that I had the opportunity to go there, because my goal is to get this course done, once and for all and unless I finish it, I cannot get my Institute 4-year diploma... We have a really nice teacher -Aksu. This time he couldn't come, so that's why Armi was teaching.

Then on Saturday I had the opportunity to go clean the church, i.e. the groundfloor, with Leena and Ari, it was really fun. In the evening we had guests over from Sweden, the Mattsons' and they both held a lesson and though there weren't many Young Single Adults there, we had a nice evening.

Of course Sunday was the day of Sacrament-meeting and then the usual Sunday-school and Relief Society. I met a lot of friends and it felt really good to be there.

Yesterday I went shopping in the day. I went first to Pancho Villa for brunch, then to Stockmann to look for good CD's... I founf Eminem's newest (Recovery), Seal's best hits, Michael Jacksons Dangerous and Green Day's American Idiot... Then I met my Best Girl Friend at Stockmann and we went to a café. She helped me with my grocery shopping and came to visit me for a while. We met my friend Veijo and went together to Church. We had Family Home Evening together with the other young adults. Then I went to my BGF's home for a while before they came to see me home, her Dad, me and her.

Today I woke around 10ish and I've just had time to listen to a little music and get dressed.

More later!

Vampires, Harry Potter, Pepsi Max and Zumba ;)

Hi there!

I have started on three new vampire-book series:

True Blood, Evermore and House of Night...

Let's see which is the best and most interesting, shall we? ;) I've read one chapter in True Blood #1 today and a little in the first of the House of Night books. Also I'm going to read a bit in Evermore -the first book today and try to finish my Eclipse -novella "The short and second life of Bree Tanner". So that's my Vampire -book update...

This year already I've read Harry Potter one and two, I'm currently reading number three -I've read them all before of course but I really enjoy re-reading them. Also I've become addicted to watching over and over again all the HP -movies 1-6, since number 7 hasn't come out on DVD yet :)

All the time while reading, watching and blogging and writing -I drink Pepsi Max -it's a bad habit, I know :P But it's so dang GOOD!!! ;)

Yesterday I went to my first Zumba -lesson ever and I wore my T-shirt that I got from my friend and Bishop -Matti- and the shirt is gray, with Garfield on it and it says in Finnish: "Hey there, good-looking!" ;) So, I went to Zumba and we had a teacher who was from Mexico, which made me feel right at home, since I've got my little vacation -spot on Gran Canaria ;) He jumped and swirled and thurst and twisted... And so did we :) Tomorrow I'm going to another Go-Go place and go Spinning -Gospel Spinning...

More later!

Ta! ;)

Harry Potter, Zumba och Vampyrer ;)

...

Tjena! Läget?

Jag blir helt enkelt tvungen att skriva nu på svenska, sorry :( ...

Idag har jag varit på mitt livs första Zumba -lektion på Go-Go Park i Tammerfors. Vi hade en sliskig men ganska gullig Mexikans kille som lärare... Det var hopp dit, hopp hit och vick-vick med höften och fram och tillbaka, framåt, bakåt -baklänges, framåt osv. Ganska tungt var det. Men jag måste säga, att stora feta otränade jag höll igång och orkade nästan allt som alla andra sk. "aktiva" personerna gjorde. Jag, som inte har tränat på ett par år, tjock och otränad vilade mej bara 3 gånger på hela lektionen, bara ca. 30 sekunder per paus... Jag blev svettig som en svett-korv och törstig...

Igår var jag bara med på första mötet i kyrkan och på lördagen hade vi Vocalis-kören från Tyskland/Sweitz på besök och också mina två vänner från Frankfurt -Mini och Josef. Jag har fått en ny vän -min första barn-kompis på flera år -Atte Kalle Ilmari Härö <3 Han är 7 år gammal och son till mina goda vänner Matti och Päivi. Han lekte med mej under hela koncerten och efteråt ville han springa med mej till bordet med serveringen och "knycka mat" ;) ...

Dessutom var jag till Akademiska Bokhandeln och köpte första boken i en ny serie -A House of Night... Får se om den är någo bra :P Jag har också beställt fjärde delen av Evermore och lagt undan första boken ur "Vampire Diaries" -eller faktiskt är det ettan och tvåan i ett. Och sen har jag också lagt undan "The Carrie Diaries" om Sex and the City tjejen -Carrie Underwood :)

Nu lyssnar jag på en spellista på Spotify med ca. 40% Shakira (kanske mer) ;)

Tja!!! <3

Life is so good :)

...

Today has been a great day, truly. I woke a wee bit earlier than usual, I watched HP 6 and made dinner for me and my mom, played FarmVille and PetSociety, read a lot in HP 2 and took a late night shower and celebrated by having a little home-spa evening. I've listened many times to one of my Disney CD's with such a catchy song, that I have to listen it on repeat and just enjoy - Pink Elephants on Parade - it's a song I haven't listened too in a very long time and now I'm hooked! ;)

I am also very happy today because I have gotten my travelplans ready for the wedding next Saturday. I'll leave on Thursday for either Åbo or Helsingfors, then arriving on Friday morning there, taking the train to Jyväskylä and stay the night there. Then on Saturday morning going by train to Kuopio, where the Wedding takes place. I'm SOOO happy for Heidi and Ville!!!


Now I have done my duty for this month, I have posted at least ONE piece of blog ;) Hurray!!!

More later!

Ta ta!

A New Year, A New Month, A New Week and A New Day :)

...

Sorry I haven't written in a looong, looong time... I was very ill indeed almost all year last year, so I wasn't very active here and neither in the "real" diary-business. So I've started this year off with a new diary, and I thought I'd have to update this ickle blog too ;)

This has been a very good year so far. The first thing I said this year was "This will be a perfect year" and the first thing I did this year was sleep and wake up, when they were shooting fireworks in the center of the City of Tampere :)

We've had more snow than ever this winter. They got 60cm of fresh snow in Vasa, my town of birth, last night... Here we have so much snow that all the trees are silvery and all the cars are buried underneath the piles...

Howdy How! :P

...

Hey there!

Yesterday I spent the day on the train on my way to Vasa, walking around there and on the train back from Vasa... My Dad had a work-day there so I got the opportunity to see again the city where I was born. It's a really nice town. They speak both Finnish and Swedish there, it's not like Tampere, where one only speaks Finnish, or Larsmo -a small town north from Jakobstad- where one only hears Swedish. Did you know that the most Swedish-speaking town in the world is in Finland? Närpes is it's name. I've eaten a sausage there once :P

Today I woke 10ish, went to the office, where you change your address and changed BACK to Stockholm, so that I am no longer a person who lives in Tampere, Finland, but a person who lives in the capirol of Sweden -Stockholm. It's a REALLY cool city and I'm proud to say that I actually live IN Stockholm, not in any suburb, like so many do, who put on facebook, that they live there, when actually they live in a suburb of Stockholm... :P

More later!!! :)

here again... :P

Hi there!

I am currently a) listening to Swedish music, b) very hungry and c) a little tired. A good reason to do something else than sleeping or eating, I do it all the time anyway... Life goes by while we eat, sleep and blog, n'est pas? ;)

My friend Tanja gave birth to twins recently and yesterday they got named :) Jaron Oskari and Jooa Oliver. Now she has five children. Jeremias Onni Eemeli, Joonas Akseli and Julia Katarina. My other friend -Laura-Carin- has six children. The latest addition is the first boy -Luukas Olavi- with FIVE bigsisters... ;)

I am just happy I only have a boyfriend to take care of, not five or six children too... :P

Well, now the food is calling me... ;)
