Day 14, 13 March 09, Temp: 0-1C, Cloudy
Good day everyone!! I made a very interesting observation today:) From Day one I arrived in Finland, I managed to see the Sun for two out of the 14 days! Its gloomy almost everyday and it has snowed 10 out of the total 14 days!! Spring seems to be on its way now and the temperature finally crosses over to 1C.
Just yesterday night, Johanna my buddy messaged me! She was apparently suffering from the "worst hangover of her life" after attending a fairwell Erasmus party for the European Union Students! "So have you studied for tomorrow's test?" And then I replied, "What test?!" One second later, "OH CRAP THE FINNISH HYGIENE TEST!!! I TOTALLY FORGOTTEN ALL ABOUT IT!!" Fortunately Johanna Reminded me if not I wouldn't have this morning to study! I cycled 8km to the School of Business and found out that all their "safety and hygiene handbooks" were on loan.
Realising this, I had no choice but to cycle another 8km to the other side of town (the hospital campus) to borrow the book. Fortunately, it was downhill all the way so it took me only 30 minutes. Managed to study for 90minutes before making my way back... Of course coming back to the Business campus was One Hell of a HORRIBLE RIDE! It was Uphill all the way and thus took me almost an hour!! I spent 80% of my journey on foot trying to push my bicycle uphill!:.....( Fortunately I made it on time and completed the test!!
Met Sudin at Gummeruksenkatu as he wanted to buy a pair of skates! I have finally found a skating buddy!!:D Unfortunately he couldn't find the size for his feet. So I agreed to meet him tomorrow and we shall go back to Sepalakangas to find his skates!!:D I shall take pictures of the whole place so do check back:D
Anyway heres the link to the pictures I took during my trip to Pereunka Resort!! Enjoy:D For those who have seen snow before, or living in a wintry environment: "SHUT YOUR YAP!" lol:D Im kidding only!
