The Book about My Life...
tiistai 8. toukokuuta 2018
Spring has sprung... ;)
I have been having some technical issues. I have decided against smileys etc. They might be the root of the problem... I hope to eliminate all my issues by just writing very emotion-less... lol Let us keep our fingers crossed this time my computer and blogger settings, whatever, will work out their difficulties and help me post a post without further problems. Man, I sound formal and boring lol
Well... Summer has arrived to Finland. Finally! It's been 17-20 degrees celsius these last few days, lovely! The grass is green(er), the sky is blue, the wind is fresh and the trees are getting greener everyday. We have not had a proper summer in a looong time. Nor a real winter. But last winter was really a winter, with snow and a lot of minus degrees. So, maybe it is: Proper winter - Proper summer! Let us hope so lol...
More later!
Testing, testing, testing...
My computer is having some "issues"... My last post went completely bonkers :P
This is a "test" :)
TA!

Hey there! ;)
How are y'all doing? :) I have missed blogging. I've been busy, a little ill and just plain lazy... Plus my internet connection has been on-off these past months. Simply because the iron door to the wifi-box was closed xD lol Seriously, my good old friend asked me: Have you tried opening the door? LOL Of course, he was right, it worked! :) Hallelujah!
Speaking of Hallelujah... We're having a pre-Christmas Christmas Party at the church tonight. I'm going. I just need to buy a little gift and a little something to eat... Everyone is supposed to bring something...
I hate winter. It's so dark in here, my home, that even though it's not even one o'clock in the afternoon, it's so dark, that I need to turn on some lights! This sucks! But of course, it's pretty cloudy :P In the summer it's the opposite. Summer is a crazy time here in Finland. Everyone goes bonkers. Well, we're pretty bonkers anyways... On the L-O-V-E front... Well, it's been pretty quiet but interesting. No comment. My Mom said that there's something in my genes that when I fall in love, I fall really hard. Well, turns out, I didn't know how much it could hurt until it did lol. Being really cryptic here, don't want to spill no beans. lol I'm crazy, I know... Some things are better left unsaid. Eventhough my speech therapist said I need to TALK IT OUT. I just cannot say some things... Maybe that's why my voice isn't working, so that I won't say the wrong things. That was the theory my shrink in Sweden had.
Did I tell you I used to live in Sweden? ... Nice try, Cindy, trying to change the subject: YOU STARTED THIS BLOG WHILE LIVING IN SWEDEN :P lol LOL lol :P
OK. That's enough for today...
BYE BYE!!!3>

Life, death and best friends.
Dear readers...
This week my best friend, extra grandmother and nanny died. She was 89 years old. She has been my friend since I was a baby. As I grew, I spent almost every Saturday at her home, watching TV, eating good food and talking about life. Oftentimes we took a nap in between TV programmes, we played cards and had fun. I miss her a lot. But I know we will meet again. The thing is, I can't see a reason why we wouldn't meet again. Like a soul could just dissolve into nothing. I'm looking forward to seeing her again. If you think about it, it will be put pretty soon. I have maybe 50-40 years left on earth. One year goes by so fast.
I have spent most of my summer here in Jakobstad, at my parents place. On Monday I'm going back home to Tampere. I have come to realise that my home really is there. It's there I grew up, it's there I've experienced my happiest, most sad, hardest and funniest moments. I really love it, my home town...
I am so lucky, I have the opportunity to live in my childhood home. I've got a bedroom, a library and a living room, a kitchen and bathroom. Not everyone has a library... okay, I'm a grown woman, I'm 37 and independent. But most women my age have a family, I have the luxury of living by myself in a very nice home.
I have truly been blessed.
This summer I have been spending time with my family and friends. I have been very very busy. Almost too busy. I am looking forward to just taking it easy and getting back to the routines and ordinary way of life.

Hi...
Lately I have been so happy that I often think that if I would die now, I would be happy and ready, perfectly in tune with the universe. I think it's a good thing, because I believe we should always be prepared to go at any given moment. We never know when it's our turn. I strive to live in a way that every evening I can say: I am happy right now. Not in the future, not in the past. Right now. I love life. There's no need for anything more. I have everything I need.
Well, this was all for now.

Rainbow connection
Today I went to the gym. To BodyBalance class, with my very favorite instructor. She is really nice. I almost didn't go there tonight but I decided to go, and it was amazing. I was so happy, BodyBalance makes me feel so good. Now I'm at home, listening to soundtracks to some of my favorite movies. I don't know what's "wrong" with me. I feel emotional, blissful and thankful. If I would die during sleep tonight, I would be completely satisfied with my life. I wish I would feel like this every evening. The gym classes have helped me a lot. Fudge, what did I do before going to the gym? LOL..
When I was a teenager, I'm not going to lie, I wanted to marry an American RM. LoL. I was a very silly child. People may say what they want about the States, but it has a very special place in my heart. I have been there only once. To Washington DC and New York city. My dream has been to live in nyc for a few months, just to experience the City. Three days in 2000 isn't quite enough. LoL. I really don't care about Utah etc. I am a different kind of Mormon 😉 My Mom always says I would be happy living in the States. I am not so rich, it's never going to be possible. Well, it's nice to dream.
One thing I would be worried about would be health care. Otherwise everything would be fine and dandy, living in the States. The language... Well, I don't think that would be a problem. LoL. I am so thankful for my teachers who taught me well. Thanks to them, English is my third language, I would say, almost as strong as my native tongues. It's been a long learning experience. I hope my teachers are proud of me, I owe them so much.
Well, that's all for now.
