Such a beautiful weather today! Especially in Porvoo, almost as beautiful as this, 2 years ago. But that was probably the only really good thing. I stayed up too late, called a friend in the morning, had just fallen back to sleep when I had to get up to do a workthing (8.30-ish, school started […]

The way it works
It’s been a few really rough days. Perhaps the toughest my family has ever had to go through. Bursting into tears any minute and battling the way up from bed and onto life. Doing the dishes is another level of hell. And no person should be doing funeral programs or obituaries. But in another universe, […]
✞
I’m gonna share something tonight. When I came home from my language course last summer, the 19th of July, my Mom was sitting on my floor, crying. And she explained to me that her twin sister, my aunt, my godmother and our family-member L was ill. And that the Porvoo hospital though it was a […]
You won’t feel a thing
Been a busy few days. I met my cousin and some friends, had long school days and I sat in a meeting (above) for most of Saturday. Today I spent some quality time reading, taking pictures with my sister and talking to Janita over Skype and then a few hours with Elina on the phone. Really miss […]
Livin’ in the real word
Another day, check. Pheeww. The Porvoo Youth Council, Youth Services and a workgroup that works with participation and co-operation arranged this event called Kuuluuko nuorten ääni? Hörs de ungas röst? (Can you hear the youth’s voice?) today. If you followed this blog a year a go, you could see I was attending the same event, […]
Always wanted
I had so much fun today! We played Laser Tag in gym, and I got the highest score in my class. And competitive as I am, I was superhappy. Okay, the game was even more exciting actually, but still, always happy to win haha. Then I jumped on the right bus, but in the wrong […]
I hugged a stranger
Aaaaand awake way too late again. Today you’re gonna get the material of a photoshoot in my school Prakticum. I really really really like that school, it’s so well-working and structured, with qualified teachers (most of them haha) and good food. We did this promo-photoshoot with some peeps from my class today as an exercise […]
When we’re talking
I was supposed to go to sleep early yesterday. That did not quite work out the way I expected. This morning, Dad drove me into town and I got a ride to Sipoo, where I participated in the second part of an event producer – course. The first part was in Porvoo, together with a […]
Take me away
Very rough day yesterday, so no blogging. The constitutional Youth Council meeting in the City Hall did not go quite as planned, and took a lot longer than I had slept enough for. Got elected for translator and to my official committee so I should be okay, but it disturbed me a little that the […]
Right where we are
Throwback to September. I feel like sleeping. I sleep 4-5 hours a night, then a little nap on my way to school and another little nap on my way home. And then I almost fall asleep on every lesson, but that might be because they’re superboring. We go through procent-stuff in maths, the same things […]
