2019

The year has changed and school has already began. This week has gone by really quickly. I have a lot of projects going on at the moment so I won’t write as much as usual. I’ll try my best in writing on my blog.

New years was really fun. I was with my family at my godmothers house in Marttila. We didn’t have fireworks this year because the weather was really windy. So it would have been pretty dangerous to light up the fireworks. We arrived there at seven o’clock. We ate french fries, sausages, salads and pizza. I gave them their Christmas presents because the last time that we were there I forgot to take them with me. We played alphabet. I think that it might be the same as scrable. We went outside when it was almost midnight. Then it was midnight and the year changed. We went back inside and ate chocolate cake, chocolate and chips. The rest of the time we were talking and playing with the dogs. We brought our dog there. Also their dog was there. We left home after two am. The way back home went pretty well despite the fact that the road was icy. The bigger issue was trying to watch out for any deers or mooses. Luckily there weren’t any animals. We got home around three am. I went to bed pretty much the same moment we got home. I was really tired.

On the first day of January I went on a walk with my mother. We ended up walking eight kilometers. We also took some great photos. The rest of the day went by pretty normally. On the second of January I went to Mylly with my sister and father. I went to my work place to see if my boss was there. I would have asked about my working hours. She wasn’t there. Before we went to Mylly I went to Paimio with my brother, father and my brothers friend. My brothers friend spent the new year at our place. We took him home. On the third of January I went to Skanssi with my mother. I went there to buy clothes. I ended up buying a hoodie and socks. I would have bought pyjamas but I couldn’t find any that would have been inexpensive. The rest of the Holiday I spent watching Chicago P.D.

The first school week has almost ended. It has gone by really quickly. Tomorrow I have six hours of school. I was thinking of going somewhere and taking photos. Photocraphy is really important to me. I might also go to a dog park with my dog.

17 days left

There is only one week left of school. Time has gone by really quickly. It feels like the year just started. I still have three exams. I have English, Swedish and marketing campaign exam next week. School ends on friday. I’m waiting for the Christmas Holiday to start so I can catch up on some sleep. Originally I was supposed to do that on the weekend but I have a lot to do then.

Christmas is in ten days. I have already bought the gifts but I still have few gifts that I need to finish. We are going to put up the christas tree tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. We still haven’t put up the Christmas decorations. We have been really busy.

On new year we are supposed to go to my godmothers house. We have spend new years there many years in a row. It is almost like a tradition at this point. I really like being there. I like having someone to talk to. I don’t really like the fireworks. I like watching the fireworks but I don’t like the sound that it makes. I have quite sensitive ears. I get a migraine really easily.

School starts on the seventh of January. The new schedule looks pretty good. I have some long days but I have pretty much gotten used to them. I’ll see it better when the school starts because then I have new subjects and teachers. Some teachers let us go home a little earlier.

Have a nice weekend.

Waiting for christmas

There is exactly two weeks until Christmas. Today I made Christmas presents. I wrapped th gifts and put them into a cardboard box. I was supposed to buy a new hoodie but I couldn’t find the right size. Today we had tortillas with chicken. Tomorrow we are going to have rice porridge. What could be more like Christmas than rice porridge.

How many of you have already put up your Christmas decorations. We don’t have the Christmas decorations yet. We have been really busy. I already have a Christmas calender. Actually I have three. I have a self made, chocolate and a family calender.

My story

I am a 17 year old girl. I live in Turku, Finland. I am going to tell about my experiences. I am going to write about my life, music, movies and tv-shows. I might also do product reviews. I might also write about something else. Only time will tell.

At the moment I’m studying at a business college. I started the second year in August. I’m going to graduate in 2020. I went to Mylly and Skanssi (shopping centres) to ask about the upcoming placement. I have previously worked at a store three times. I did my on the job learning at a small grocery store called Sale. I have previously had on placement I went to the same place. I got my placement work place from a little arts and crafts store in Mylly. At the beginning I thought that I would go to a pet store but they didn’t have available jobs.

I’m studying Finnish, English and Swedish at the moment. My mother language is Finnish. I speak English most of the time in my day. I can speak some Swedish. I have also studied Spanish but unfortunately I can’t remember most of it. I have also studied Korean, Japanese, Thai, French, German and other languages. I’m not that good at the moment. I want to spend my summer Holiday learning these languages.
