heiiii :D

Hello ! It's been awhile. And the past week was crazy. Last week was a hard one for me, I got quite the bout of homesickness which wasn't too fun :/ But I think its passed now and I'm having a good week so far. Last weekend I traveled on friday with mimmi by train ! to a town called Iisalmi, about an hour north of Kuopio, the biggest city in Savo, a section of Finland. It was really fun and we stayed with mimmi's cousins, the Martikainen's, Senni is 12, Asse is 10 and Jasse is 8, so they were fun to be with. Mimmi and I documented the entire trip by video and ended up with 26 that I somehow need to find time to upload. I managed to get three or something up yesterday, but that was it and they were from the end of the trip, not from the best part on the train. So sometime soon ! This week is test week, so I dont have any school but yesterday I went to Nuppes school and it was nice. I just followed her to all her classes, ntohing too special. And today I had my big listening exam in finnish which went alright, there were only a few things that were really tough. Last week I had my remu aaltonen presentation and it went fantastic ! I felt so finnish, like the inner finn in me just came out and i was just pouring out finnish words and sentences, it was really fun :D Tomorrow I have my english exam in the morning and then a meeting with Marjatta to pick my last classes for the last period at school, so crazy ! And then an oral exam in finnish ! Oh gosh....I'm really scared for that because even though I know a lot of words and stuff, my pronounciation still sucks and thats what we're being tested on...Then on thursday I'm going running with Piia and Annina, which I did on Sunday as well, Make came too ! It was really nice and really fun. Then on friday everyone has the day off because of Good Friday (Pitkäpäivää in finnish, which means long day) and so we're going to a church service in the morning. Saturday I'm going to cook at Anninas house because I'm cooking enchiladas for anninas birthday party but her mom wants to taste them because she won't be there for the party ! So im making them for them on saturday ! I'm really excited for that. That night, around 23.00 we have easter service, that goes until after midnight to celebrate easter ! Which should be fun. And then easter is on sunday ! Its a big holiday infinland, we even have monday off too because its another special day. So that will be nice :D And now I'm going to eat !

So have a very happy easter, thanks for your thoughts and prayers !

Hyvää Pääsiästä !
