Update

I have few minutes before the L-word second to last episode starts so I thought I'd blog

  • I finished my resume yesterday. We came up with a kick ass objective and now my professor is reading it and will give me some pointers so after he is done I will start sending it out. Well actually after we come back from Finland since I wanna be here in case I'm contacted
  • There's 13 days till Finland! Our schedule is filling up fast and we're both excited about it! We get to see Elviira and Marianne, hopefully Noora, eat blueberry pie, celebrate St. Patrick's Day on Tampere with Saara and do some shopping in Helsinki, Tampere and Forssa. We'll also go see a basketball game. It'll be so much fun!
  • We went to see the reader on Friday. It was weirdly good and weirdly bad. I'm gonna use the word weird here a lot because that's how I felt afterwards. Our mood after the movie was nothing like after Slumdog Millionaire. This was like stunned silence. T was bored to tears and I was looking for the idea behind the movie. Couldn't find it. Was wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too long. Can't believe Kate got an Oscar for that.
  • We just finished a cook-out. I think we're trying to go back to cooking few meals each time so we don't need to cook every day.
  • We are waiting for a major snow tonight and tomorrow. So far this year all the "major storms" have been duds so who knows if this will stick but that's the rumor. We might both stay in tomorrow. The city is supposed to be hit the hardest and T thinks the commute will not be worth it.
  • Portland, Phoenix and Charlotte are areas of interest right now.
I'll write more when I have time. Later

What it is the kick ass objective?

And what does "dud" mean?

Tervetuloa Suomeen! Täällä ootellaan!

Do you come to watch Fokopo vs. NamikaLahti?? Hope we'll see. :)

Elviira~

A "dud" is something that fizzles.. it does not live up to it's expectations... a failure.

Hope this helps!

Thanks T, that helped!

Talking about snow. I'm afraid that there is gonna be snow when you arrive. Didn't you hope that there wasn't any..?
