It's that time again

So, in case you didn't know, it's the time of the year again when Forssa Pride Party is fast approaching and Eino has, once again, made a fabulous poster for the party. It'll be all over Southern Finland in no time. He also made a badge model for it, which I turned into a t-shirt, which you can buy from here.

And here is the poster in all of its glory!

Our Facebook events page can be found here.

I hope to see many of you there, it's going to be amazing time! We are excited!

Best. week. ever!

That might be a recycled title for a post, but I don't care as I feel this has been the best week ever, and I doubt tomorrow will bring it down!

I had my 33rd birthday on Tuesday, which was also the first meeting of the fall season for Gay Cafe and we had a new person showing up who seems like will be returning.

After I came home from Gay Cafe, I had a message regarding the hosting job for Forssa Pride 3's program. All the people who I asked to participate, said yes, so as you might know, Miss Gay Finland 2013 Leena Luuri and Mr. Gay Finland 2013 Aleks Vehkala promised to do a discussion and Q&A-type of thing for Forssa Pride as well as participate in an extra Gay Cafe meeting we have that day! And, if you are in Finland, and have access to TV, you can check Aleks out in the new season of Celebrity Big Brother that started on Tuesday, just as I was announcing the stars for Forssa Pride! The hostess also said yes, but as I have yet to get a confirmation that I can use her name for promotional purposes, I will refrain from revealing it! Still, Happy Birthday to me!

On Friday I got my tax forms back. What was already a substantial amount of money (in my financial situation) became even bigger after my student loan payments and commuting costs for work were included. I feel like another shopping trip to the USA is in order!

And today, I got a phone call from the owner of a local jewelry company from whom I had asked their interest in sponsoring Forssa Pride 3. We have 3 guests coming from out of town whose travel and hotel costs need to be paid for. Green Whale Jewelry has booked and is paying for the hotel rooms!

I have said it before and I'll keep saying it till I'm blue in the face, I love this community so much! Organizing both Forssa Pride and Gay Cafe has really showed me what a community is and people's willingness to help always amazes me.

Tomorrow I will go get trained at SETA in Helsinki, so this week...be still my heart! Only way this week could get any better is if I find the love of my life tomorrow! :)

I hope to see some of you at Forssa Pride 3 and if you show up, come say hi!
