my first days living in Jyväskylä

Icon 2 Comments
My lovely holidays in Rome are over. It was a great fun and definitely a nice way to spend two weeks with my family after leaving them for who knows how long time.

Today is my third day here in Jyväskylä. This far things have been really good. Seriously, things were never that good while I was studying in Tartu. I have already met lots of people from different places: girls from China (mainly communicating with Kun who's also studying Music and Media Management), girls from Russia (can't really remember the girl's name who's studying the same as I am but there are like 8 Russian girls over here and most of them are giving their very best to make their Russian names sounding more like English ones), one guy from Turkey, one girl from Germany, one girl from Africa and so on. I'm gladly mainly communicating with Finns themselves because I met one Finnish guy Matti (he's just adorable and really cute :wub: :spiteful: :D ) when we both were searching for the auditorium and later on one other Finnish guy studying the same subject as I joined us and two girls out of who one shares our program as well. So I'm still sticking to the Northern people. Oh, and the girl I'm living with is from Spain. She seems to be really nice.

So the studies haven't really started. It's an orientation week going on and tomorrow we'll start with some Finnish lessons. I'm so hoping my basic Finnish skills will help me a little over there! But I definitely hope to learn some things more because my Finnish is still poor and in desperate need of improving. I'm probably looking forward to Thursday's events the most because then we'll go on cruise on Päijänne lake. And hopefully this cute guy will come as well! :lol: I especially hope it because there's one Pakistan guy who arrived yesterday and he so wants to ask for my help in everything but I don't really want to spend any time with him and I'm trying to avoid him as much as possible. I yet haven't decided what I don't like about him but I just don't really feel like communicating with him. Yep, I'm picky and bitchy and racist too even though I get perfectly along with the African girl.

Well, I guess now that I have internet connection I'll try to stay more in contact with everyone. I started to miss all my friends (and also HIMclubbers) with these few days and now some time ago my father called me and that made me really sad. I was just writing an e-mail for my mom and I didn't feel myself sad or something like that but when I picked up the phone it really was sad and I realized how much I actually miss my home ones. :(

I actually wanted to stop writing right now but I can't stop with so sad thought. Oh, as for happier side I'm hopefully going to see Lapko this Friday which should be cool and in few weeks Negative will play in town so I'm hopefully going to see them as well. So all the concert stuff is still going to steal a lot of my time.

And as for happy news: Gerd Kanter won gold! =D =D He so had deserved it!!! *goes to pick an Estonian candy to celebrate*

The whole thing sounds exciting, and a bit sad (missing friends and family). Didn't think there'd be such diversity of nationalities there, I wish there were places like that here too, would be interesting to know about other people's culture and customs. I hope it'll go well for you, be sure to make the most of it :D

Yeah, I was actually surprised by myself too that here are so many people from different places. But I'll surely try to take everything I can from this experience and after one week over here I've met lots of great people and next week I'll meet all other people on my course who are not attending this orientation week we had :)
