I heard that there was slight earthquake in Singapore.
Was webcamming with my parents just now and suddenly there was earthquake, the chairs, even the building were shaking. My mum thought that she had a headache when she saw the water moving side to side. I'm very worried now. A regional tsunami warning was issued too.
Is everybody alright?
Please take care.
Please be safe.

brought an ice cream on the way back home! YUM YUM
the feeling of eating it out in the cold was great, but it would be better if it's my favourite hokkaido green ice cream !!

finnish way of living

For yesterday (sat)

Liisa and Marttin came to pick us at 11am, before that we went to the mart to buy a gift for them. They drove us to their house with car and it is the first time for me going down the street in a car, since walking is my only transportation here.

They showed us some photo albums and we played Memory game ( the game which you have to find two identical cards ). Guess what ? I got the last place ! hahaha can't believe my memory is worse than Liisa and Marttin. After that, we did some baking XD

in the process of making finnish bread XD

i did the smiley face and HZ did the hair !

This is fresh berries juice made by Liisa. It tasted like ribena but better and fresher.

Ate the 'Hot from the oven' bread together with the juice. NICE NICE hahha!
Liisa taught us some finnish nursery rhymes


I think it is better that i don't say what i'm playing. Really embrassing hahah!

preparing the lunch

Our lunch- baby potato, mushroom sauce and meat



Desert- Icecream with homemade berries sauce

Went for a walk in the forest. We walked about 45mins. Yes, i need to burn some fats anyway!

Marttin with his exercising stick. Most of the elderly use this over here to help them with walking, not very sure about this too hahah


We went for a swim in this lake. It is freezing, freezzzing, freezzzzzzing COLD. It like ice water, i think it is around 5-6 degrees celsius. My whole leg got numb within seconds and i just froze there with my lower body in the water. Thank to the push from Huizhen and the slippery stair filled with algae, i then got into the water. Thank very much huh Huizhen ! hahaha.

We were shocked when Liisa said it's time to go. I was barely in the water for a minute. I think this is their way of swimming. Because when i went in to change to my clothes, another woman was changing into her swimsuit and when i'm done wearing my jeans, she was back. Anyway, it is IMPOSSIBLE for you to really swim too.

Oh ya, after the swim you won't feel cold at all instead you will feel very warm XD


Our teabreak hahah!

I like their house. It is very heart-warming. They have stayed here since 1980s. =)

We went to their sauna after resting for awhile. Yes, almost every finnish families will have a sauna room in their house. Finnish people go into the sauna naked. But i can't really take it yet so i used a towel to cover hahah. i remember she said that the time when you can come into the sauna naked, you will be a real finnish girl.

I like the hot and cold feeling. When you cannot take the heat inside the sauna anymore, you should go out and take a cold bath and back into the sauna. In this way, it will wash away the dirt from your body too.

Liisa offered us beer after sauna. We sat in a room to cool ourselves down before changing. She OFFERED ! so you see, you really got to learn how to drink.

Dinner- baked barley, they spent two hours baking this

It would be better if i have a book under this atmosphere.

Sun - 27 Sep

Today is totally uneventful. Did the laundry and just spent half of the day lying on the bed reading 'Twilight' hahah XD

Finally i'm done with this post! I intended to use only 10 mins, in the end i took me about an hour and half !

First of Force

For Tuesday 15/09/2009

Was pulled to the pub with them but turned out to be quite an enjoyable night. Tried some of their drinks here =)

Salmari

This is one of the famous liquor in Finland and you can only get it here XD but it tasted totally like cough syrup to me


Talon Lonkero

I like this XD it is kind of like lemonade with alcohols


went home around 11 plus with huizhen and the street is quite empty

We saw a guy on the street. He pointed at us and said "I want you, I want you! " i'm so afraid that he will come after us but luckily nope. I have my umbrella ready though, if he comes, i will just swing my umbrella at him.

For Wednesday, 16/09/2009


Finland VS The world
School football match. It is quite cold to sit outside esp after the rain. Furthermore, the match wasn't that interesting.
After the match , Nadine and Nils (german friends) came over to cook german food for us XD
Nils was trying to introduce us some heavy metal songs which was his favourite genre of music.(please ignore the cornflakes box XD)
This is Nils. The chief of the day. It is weird seeing a guy working so hard in the kitchen furthermore a caucasian.
This is Nadine XD
and the dinner was.....

For today(fri),
i just came back from cruise organized by the school. Nothing much to do on the cruise. Drink, chat, watch people dance and listen to the music. And no, i didn't drink a lot hahha cause it was very exp. i just drank half a mug only XD
i don't really enjoyed the music too cause it is not my type of music.
Oh ya! i had my first presentation on SIA today.
