Woot!
I went to Music this morning for the first time, and I thought it was like a Music-playing course. Nuh-huh, it's like, Music-history-theory-stuff course. So I learned about the basic A-A-B-A form today. We watched this movie that was in English with Finnish subtitles, so I could actually follow and understand most of it. It was rather fun.
After that, I had my 'HYS7a' course which is Latin American history. So today we talked about the history of North America, and since I'm 'the authority on anything North American or English' I was asked all these interesting questions and stuff. It was fun though, I didn't know many countries on the map we were supposed to label, although I knew some in Finnish(Meksiko..guess which one that is:P).
I also checked out the market in Tampere that is on the first Mondays of the month. It was pretty cool, I met up with Tamra and we walked around. There's this one stand where they don't have price tags, so you have to barter and stuff....which I'm not doing until I'm good enough with my Finnish. Apparently they rip you off if you don't know what you're doing...which I wouldn't doubt.
I'm even MORE excited now. I might be going to Sweden next week on a cruise with my host family during our 'fall holiday'. Woot. So as long as Jorma says it's okay and everything, I'm agoing to Sweden for a couple hours. And a cruise! TWO new things in one shot. Annina is going to Poland on a school trip because she's vice president of her student council thing, and we're going to Sweden. It should be excited.
Also,Chris might be coming up for a while too!:D That would be so uber cool, being able to show him around my city and stuff. Hopefully that works out, it would be so much fun!
