just so you'll stop, yes you.

So I just got back from a majorrrrr 1 hour and fourty five minute walk with my hosties on the frozen lake with Nordic Walkers, the oh so popular walking stick in Finland. They help you get more than just leg movement while youre out walking, its acutally quite nice, really stretches the back :) Anyways, so it was fun, we stopped and talked to some ice hole fishers along the way, he pulled out 3 fish while were there ! And they were hugeeee. I have pictures, they'll be up soon, www.photobucket.com/josesuomessa [if you dont have it favourited yet, you're lame.] And yeah, it was really fun, and nice weather. Only about -7 celcius today, with a slight wind chill, that part sucked...my chin always freezes and it makes it hard to talk :/ But even though I sometimes dread going on walks, each time I go I always feel so much better when I get back, its so refreshing, you should try it. Mom and Dad, look out, we're going on walks when I get back. Anyways, so my host mom is cooking pork, my favourite....not. It'll be interesting. And then I might be going to church....I'm not really sure yet....Tomorrow is school :/ But we have dance :] So I'm excited for thattt. Last night Anna, my previous host mom, called me and just wanted to chat, so we talked for a while, and then Maria wanted to talk...I do fine understanding her in person [she only speaks finnish, no english] but usualyl we can use examples and hand motions and such to further explain, this was our first phone conversation. But it went well ! I asked her what she did that day and she told me she and Saimi went ice skating and that she was going again tomorrow, and that she watched videos on the computer and played dolls. So we had a nice chat :) I was proud of myself. She invited me to her birthday party next thursday, Anna asked if I could be a supervisor ish thing with Petra, so I'm excited for that, we're going to the swimming pool ! Woo (: So yeah, hope you had/are having a fabulous weeekend.
