Who says Finns can't do small talk?!

I had a blast May Day!
We just sat around with a friend drinking scorpion-colas and watching Most Haunted. And neither of us had a hangover the next day! Unbelievable. That day I started watching Supernatural and I'm already over halfway through the first season. I've also checked out the animation version of it (in Japanese, of course) and it's brilliant, too.

On Monday, school as usual. Literature had Victorian Poets as a topic... Boy, were they a bunch of little sunshines! And then we took an unofficial official class photo - though one teacher wasn't there.
And after school I went to Helsinki to meet a couple of my friends. We decided to catch a movie. We went to see the King's Speech and it was brilliant! I warmly recommend seeing it.

And about the small talk part. On the way home - on the train - this older gentleman sat opposite me and he commented me on the weather and then we got talking and talked until he had to get off the train. He was very sweet and funny. And the younger guy next to him also talked with us, he was fun, too.

In Helsinki every place was packed full. The cinema was full and some people couldn't even get tickets to the show they wanted - we were one of the last groups to get ours. And the train was packed, too; people had to stand around. This on a Monday!?

Anyway, this morning I couldn't get up, because I was so dizzy - still am, as a matter of fact. I decided that I won't risk going to school. But luckily I've got stuff to do here, too. Like ironing my clothes and checking if anything else needs washing.

Five more days to the trip! I really can't wait!
