Wow wow wow. Well today was certainly an adventure...my first school day. When I got there these two tutors came up to me and told me that they knew where I needed to go, and led me to a classroom upstairs. This was a class for the IB students, [which I later realized I was not], so here I sat in some random class that I wasn't really supposed to be in. And then we walked down to the next class which was called TOK, Theory of Knowledge, which, again, I wasn't supposed to be in. When I explained this to my tutors we came to the conclusion that I was not who they thought I was and that I was not in the right place. But I stuck with them for the rest of the day, and one girl showed me around Jyväskylä at lunch. It was here that I got invited to a dozen raves, some beer gatherings, and other various things. And I am now regretting ever befriending Naomi, so tomorrow I have to secretly avoid her as much as possible. AFter school, which seemed to go on for agggeeees, I caught the bus home and helped Maria make a salad, salaati. Anna came back from running, [for two hours !], and told Maria she needed sausages from the market. So Maria and I rode our bikes to the market, baught some sausages and water, vesi, and then biked home. We ate a wonderful lunch of potatoes, perunas, and sausages, along with our normal side, bread and meat ! I rode with Anna and Lauri to the department store where we checked out laptops for Lauri and then we took him to ice hockey practice. I met Anna's brother at the swimming hall, and his kids, they seem nice. The pool here is hugeeee. Theres actually five pools at this place, one 50m, one 25m, two hot tubs, and a kid pool complete with a water slide ! I can't wait to swim therem it looks like a lottt of fun. When we got home Harri asked me if I wanted to go on a nice hike with Maria and her friend Sara. I of course accepted and off we went. It was a 45 minute hike up a hugeeee hill. But the view from the top was gorgeous, I wish I would have brought my camera. I carried Maria on my back the whole way home, but it was fun. Five minutes after we got home Maria told her mom to ask me if I wanted to go down to the lake and swim. Not wanting to let Maria down, I accepted. The lake was frrreeeezing ! Probably the coldest water I've ever been in. But once we were in we got used to it. And for desert, Anna made square pancakes with strawberries and whipped cream, yummmm. I am pooped from today, have a fabulous one yourself :]

Heippa !
