Well the ones that are still reading my blog. haha. I see the numbers of views have gone down. I guess I haven't been writting anything to intersting latetly. My life here is just starting to become ordinary which is a good thing. It means i'm really getting adjusted :D. The only thing that could make my exchange better is if I could just learn the language. I thought it would be easier then it is but really finnish is so much different, and I guess its difficult making myself learn it because I don't really have to speak it. Of course i'm learning a lot of new words and I understand a lot of what the people are saying its just that I can't find all the words to express myself. I speak a lot of Finglish :P. Christmas is in only 4 days! I can't beleive its already time. I thought the coming of Christmas would be so difficult but so far it's not that bad. I guess all the holidays so far are celebrated so much differently here that I don't even think of it being the same holiday.
The weather here has cooled of a lot. Last week it was +1 and now its going from -5 to -20. I guess I shouldn't complain much because I heard in Saskatchewan you have been getting -40. BRrrr. Not missing that at all. haha. I still wish I could be in a warm country at the beach sometimes but instead I get to skate on the frozen sea beside my house :).
School is going great. I had my last day on Friday. I like having holidays but I think I will find it long. After the break I move into my second host family. I'm really sad to move because I really love where I live and my host family is so awesome. I know that things will be great with the next host family too though. Its just that I think it will be difficult moving. I guess I can't complain it's not like i'm moving in with a skinning knife collector. haha.
Well anyways I hope everyone is enjoying themselves and take care. Pray for me!
À la famille: Je vous aimes de tout mon coeur!

Dearest Sophie
ReplyDeleteWe still check fairly often to see if you have something new to tell us and are very pleased and excited when we see a new post. As you said Christmas is just a couple of days away. Time flies by so quickly it is hard to believe. I am working through Christmas so I am not sure what Randy will do. The weather is warmed up a bit so it is more pleasant to do things outside. I believe it is supose to be -10 or so for Christmas so that will be good. Hope you enjoy your new host family too bad you have to change mid way. But as they say a change is as good as the rest!! We will be thinking of you as always take care and God bless Love you always Randy and Gervaise
