Kaksi

My first day in Finland and boy was it an adventure. I woke up around seven, seitseman, and did my devotion, which I have been keeping up with for the past week now, it's very nice. Today I read about the miracles of Jesus. When Maria and Juuso woke up we watched cartoons, which are the same ones in the states as they are here only some of them are translated into finnish. Breakfast was delicious, we had bread, which tastes a thousand times better here, with cheese and meat. Juuso had an ice hockey game today, so I got to go see that. And I saw half of Lauris game after that. Maria opened up to me so we had a blast, we just laugh at certain things and kind of use sign language to get across what we mean. We even mastered a board game together, it was really fun :] Anna cooked a really good salmon and rice meal for lunch, and then we went into town to do grocery shopping. All stores except grocery stores and small businesses are closed on Sunday's and aren't allowed to be open, so that was kind of different. jfkdjfa;lksd and then I got to go with Lauri and his nice looking friend Pete to a soccer game! It was fun, but when we walked out Lauri couldn't find his keys to his mo-ped, which he was driving me home on, so when we walked down to where it was parked we found out that it got stolen! So now he has no mo-ped...it's really sad, but kind of hillarious. Pete kept apologizing for the worst first day in Finland that anyone could have had, but I got a kick out of it. I'm really tired, so I'm gonna hit the sack, I start school tomorrow! I am quite nervous, but so excited :D

Until tomorrow, moi!
