Another Finnish Course

My fabulous husband helped me register for a Finnish for Foreigners course which is offered at Helsinki University. Most students in the class will actually be enrolled in the university, but they offer remaining spots to people who would like to learn the language once everyone has finished enrolling. Luckily I got one of those places, and I couldn't be more excited. I took a Finnish course through the employment office but I have been told numerous times that it is not as good as the course offered at the university, and I am serious about learning this language. This class will only be 2 days a week as opposed to the 5 day a week course I took before, but there is a lot of independent work that goes along with it. It also gives you the opportunity to work on what you are learning and have it soak in before moving onto something else. My other course kept throwing new things at you everyday and I never felt like I truly understood something before we moved onto a new topic. So I am really looking forward to this new course!!

Love Cadbury!!

I was in the WTC shop that sells American and British food items the other day and noticed that they sold Cadbury Creme eggs. I love Cadbury's! I was going to buy one because they are sold individually, until I noticed the price: 1,60 euros. That is the same as $2.27! I just couldn't force myself to buy just ONE egg for that price. So I walked away from that huge basket full of creme eggs, and have been craving them ever since!

Going To Watch My Brother Get Married!

Got a CD with my brother's wedding on it in the mail today. The hubby and I couldn't be there for the actual occasion, so they sent us copy of it. He has been married a month yesterday. Congrats Adam! Thanks for the CD.

Going to the Zoo!!

I am excited. I have been here for two years and have never been to the Finnish zoo. You have to take a little ferry boat to get there as it is on an island. Tomorrow when my younger SIL gets here we are going to go. I am really looking forward to it!!!

Happy Father's Day!

Wish I could be at home to spend Father's Day with my dad, but I can't so I gave him a call! Kai and I also bought him a nice new Chap's shirt before we left. As you can see below, he just had to try it on and model it so I could take a picture! Love you dad! Happy Father's Day!

Going To The Chapel...

Today my little brother is getting married! Congratulations!
