Over the last few days somewhat of a variable routine has emerged from the perpetual rhythm of Finnish life, and the fading of the light into dark and then back again at a surprisingly early hour. Wednesdays and Thursdays seem to be the best nights to go out, with Amarillo providing €1.60 beers and ESN providing an Erasmus party every Thursday night. However, amidst all the fun I am having, it has become apparent to me that University involves work.
Thus, and I cannot explain how I arrived in this predicament, I found myself with a group presentation on the history of Finnish art to complete, and given the second experience of turning up to a Finnish lesson with only 4 hours sleep and a sleep inducing blood-alcohol significance level, it has occurred to me that doing some learning outside of lectures wouldn't have been the stupidest choice I've ever made. The result of this is that I actually have something to do when I get bored. Which is never.
Amongst all this 'fun' has also emerged the opportunity to go to Lapland and St. Petersburg, the latter of which has been booked and will happen at the end of October. Unfortunately, subject to my teacher being accommodating, I am unable to go to Lapland before Christmas due to my Finnish language exam, although I'm sure they wont notice if I skip it. One other thing to mention which I feel is of great importance, is that the other day I cleaned my floor! Until next time...
