The fault in our stars

So, as the headline says, I went to see the fault in our stars today with A. It was like SO good, and not that unreal-made-up-srtory or anything (which are usually the ones I like), it was just so real in a way. And I've never been to a movie salon before where literally everyone cries, including me. Was a great movie.

Otherwise I went to the gym today and after that I wondered around the mall and found some birthday presents and a lovely top for myself :) I'll post a picture of it later! And I also did some stuff related to my exchange.
So a pretty successful day I would say :) Hope your day was great too!!


A really old picture of me and A <3

My exchange

So, I just realized that I haven't told you guys anything about my exchange year :D

So, I applied last autumn to be an exchangestudent. Right after the interview I was told that they were 99% sure that I'd be accepted into the program. And that was true :)


I still remember the day I found out about my host-family and where they lived (and I think that everyone who was around me that time remembers it to xD)
I was at Unccan when my mum called me and said that I had received a letter from the organization. I didn't have the patience to wait and told her to open it. I didn't want to know all the details, because I wanted to read them myself. But I did want to know what the family was like and where I would be spending my year. She told me the place, and my heart kind of stopped for a minute. It was exactly the place that I had wished for. It was to good to be true. I hang up the phone in the intension to run home and read all the papers and letters they had sent me. But I just couldn't. I couldn't speak or anything, I was just so damn happy! I remembered everyone asking me whats wrong and i just shushed them and kept repeating "oh my God".

After a while I just stood up and started talking like crazy. I was so happy that word just flew out of my mouth. But I think that after a while everyone got that I had just received my host family :D
After that i had stalked the city I was going to live in (and after I had calmed down) I ran home to read the rest of the letters. On the way I called to my best friends and told them the news. I was going to spend my year in Cádiz.


Well, I returned home and started reading. All the information was in english and the letters from my family and my Coordinadora local was in spanish. I found out the information about my family. I will be living with my host-mom, host-dad and host-sister. I will also have another, older host-sister who no longer lives at home,  but according to the family she still spends a lot of time with them, which I find very nice :)
Oh! the family also has a dog :---)

So, I will be living in the beautiful city of Cadiz. Although I've never been to Cádiz (or in the mainland of Spain for that matter) the pictures told me that the city is gorgeous. And my host-family thought so too :) Our flat is almost in the middle of the city, surrounded by amazing beaches. What I've been told, Cádiz is a little city, so although there are good public transports, everything is at walking-distance. After all the city is only about 12 km² (double the size of the city I currently live in).


I will during my stay attend a Bachillerato. I will be a first-year, which i find great, because it means that my classmates will also be new in the school. I won't write that much about the school now, since I'm still very lost about it myself. The main things that I know is that it's very close to our house, it's not a private school and I won't be using a uniform. Not much more that that :)


My exchange starts in the middle of September and ends in the last days of June. My exchange starts with a trip to Barcelona, where all of the exchange students will be staying for a couple of days. 


I am not quite sure what we'll be doing, but it's some sort of info-session. I think that it'll be nice to see some other exchange students as well and have kind of a soft landing before the year starts. 


So, after a couple days in Barcelona we will be heading towards our destinations. I am not sure how I will be traveling to Cádiz, but most likely with plane/train or both :) And there starts the greatest journey of my life 



WHY SPAIN?
Well, I don't know xD Okay yes I do. 
I have eagerly wanted to learn the language since I was a little kid. The language is just SO beautiful. Also the culture. My trip to Mallorca just proved that I am going to love the Spanish culture. And of course the people. They are so different from Finns! They are so open-minded and happy all the time, and my Coodrinadora local described Cádiz as "la ciudad que sonríe" so I have no doubt about that my exchange will be the best year ever.

27/7

Heyy,
How you all doing? Hopefully good :)
Today I've been doing absolutely nothing. It's SO warm here in Finland and it's almost inhuman to be outside for a longer time. I managed to do my power-walk, but decided to skip the gym today. I'm just trying to get energy for the upcoming week. I've got so much to do!! Despite the usual (gym and that kind of things) we'll be sailing, going to some parties, starting to prepare some things for my exchange (I have to pack up my whole room... And if I don't start now I know that I'll start the day before I leave xD) and then my cousin is coming to Finland from California!! It's been quite a while since last time, so it'll be so nice to see her again :) and in the weekend I have plans on seeing M and most likely A too, 'cause M heads off to USA the 5th. My God, everyone is just leaving!! It's not fair :( but hey, if you wait for something great you never wait to long, right? ^^


This was my super-secret thing I was doing earlier, some OPEN WHEN letters for Stella :) omg, it's been like one day and I already miss her like crazy.... 

Oh well, have a great day!

I love you honey

#throwback

So I had a pretty good day today. I woke pretty late, but deside to take a long power walk because of the beautiful weather! I mean it was like SO hot outside! After that I didn't do much, since my plans got a bit ruined... But in the afternoon I saw the one and only H, and it was just great seeing my girl <3 I've missed her so much! In the evening I continued doing nothing really. I finished my little 'secret project' and then I just chilled with my dogs :) I also looked at some photos of this summer, which was kind of nice, I didn't realize how much I've done during this vacation! Job, Mallorca, Solvalla, sailing, just relaxing at home and soon I'll be working again for a while :) and I've still got a lot to look forward too! But now it's wayy too late to start listing those things xD

So good night everyone, sweet dreams



En av höjdpunkterna på sommaren, med bästa Emilia, Daniela, Marie, Alexander och Ebe, TACK FÖR EN FIN VECKA <3

Something to think about



-J

Speachless

G'day everyone
Today I started of with an EARLY trip to the gym for a killer session, I mean I was there at 9 am!! But it was a nice change :) after that I just did nothing for a veery long time. Then, when everyone had left home (either for jobs or practice or something like that), I spet my alone-time in the best way ever. By watching the magnificent movie Divergent. I mean words can not explain how good this movie is! And not only because the actors are great (because Theo you are awesome xD) but because I like the whole plot and idea in this movie! And it's so real in a way, like you can feel everything that's happening. It's like you are standing right beside them! I really really like this movie, and recommend it to ALL OF YOU!! Great plot, great actors. What more could we want? (Oh and try reading the book! I read it in English a couple weeks ago, it's unbelievably great too!)



Anyway, after that I recovered from that awesomeness and landed on earth again, I went for a long walk with the dogs and then I did some super-secret things (which you will find out about on the weekend) :---). Nothing more I guess, tomorrow will be pretty much the same as today, with the exception that I hope I'll be able to se my lovely H and hopefully my girls too <3

Nimpparipäivä :)


Heyy
So today's been kind of hectic. My morning started with some catching up with K, M and D. Although only by whatsapp... And I didn't notice that I spent like 1.5 hours just talking with them xD then I got up, made som breakfast and after that I got a cute present from my dogs (thanks mom <3) 'cause it's my namnsdag (ja ORKAR int söka detta ord på engelska). After that I ran to the bus to hit the gym. My motivation was kin of low today and I was really tired, but once I got my Celsius and walked inside the gym I got really excited! I did a great upper-body session :--) aaaaand after that I (once again) ran to the bus to. I think that I should really plan these things better xD anyway, now I'm on my way home, and I have quite much planned out for today! But more about that later! And sine I haven't posted these last couple of days, I'll just give a short explanation of what I've been doing; nothing xD or I've spent much time with M, 'cause I'm trying to spend as much time as I can with her before she heads of to California :'(. No but nice for her. Aaand I'm also waiting for S and J to come home, but that's still under progress xD

Okay but anyway, have a good one!!

¡Dos meses!

Hello :)
I've had a pretty hectic couple of days, that's why it's been silent in here. The last two days I was in Jyväskylä with my parents and my younger-older-brother xD We were on the asunto-messut, kind of like a tradition in our family. Aaaand it's always nice to stay at a hotel so :--)
Today I started the day by visiting my grandfather and aunt, which was really nice, since those days aren't so many after all. After that I hit the gym for a killer upper-body session, which was really a success!! In the evening I even saw M, so nice to catch up with that awesome girl <3 some other things I did there inberween, but they aren't blog-material. 

Tomorrow I have plans on cleaning my room (since it looks like a battlefield) and maybe later hit the gym. But we'll see :)

Good night everyone :--)

Home sweet home

Helloo :)
I thought that I'd write this one in English, since it's a short one and I still consider changing the language completely to English. Mainly because I have so many friends from different countries who are reading this. But we'll se :--) 
Today's news is that we just came home from our boat, and although I truly LOVE sailing, it's nice to be home after 3 weeks on the sea. And well, I haven't done anything today, probably won't either. For tomorrow's plans I scheduled a gym-session and hopefully I'll meet Hanna in the evening, it's been so long since I saw that beauty <3

Aaaaand, otherwise I'll just be waiting for my other half to come home from her summer cottage, we have quite a bit planed out ;-)




Hope you're having a great weekend!

10/7


Hejj :)
De liksom storm of the century där ute!! Okej int rikit, ha vari me om mycke värre, men ändå. Vi ligger för tillfället vid Östersjöporten i Hangö, riktigt suojaisaa (vad är ordet på svenska?!) har vi de här, då det ute på havet blåser ca 15-20 m/s. Vi stannade alltså en extra dag i Hangö, bara för att det kändes skönt att ta en vilodag förrän vi imorgon beger oss vidare. Så starten sker imorgon kl. 7! Härligt med sådant på sommarlovet <3 
Dock är det helt okej, vi far till det absolut bästa stället som finns, gillar verkligen denna holme! 

Inget annat speciellt. Dagen har bestått av lite shopping, annars inte så mycket. Var på länk och har bara tagit det lugnt, riktigt skön variation xD

Ha en bra kväll alla!
