I saw my friend making a listing of her year, and I thought to do the same. Although I'm not sure if its going to be a bit too dark...
January:
Well, the exchange girls came, I saw only one, who was nice. In the end they kept in contact only when in trouble, so I decided to stop tutoring. I started as a president, which was scary as hell, because the former one, on whom I had trusted to help me, made a disappearance act.
February:
I redid some exams, and I moved a friend, that I actually hate, to her new apartment in order to return to the friend zone. It didn't work, however. Her new apartment is so far away and I'm so scared of people, that it didn't seem worth to go so far just to peek through the window. Also my sister, at whose place I could've slept, wasn't home.
March:
Sometime this time I had my 2 job interviews. First one went ok, I didn't get it, second was that horrible group interview, during which the leader didn't watch me in the eyes after handshake. Well, I've met her before, and she reeally has something against my looks, probably. Maybe she has tried to straighten her hair all her life and just boiled over seeing my straight hair.
April:
Vappu. I asked my Croatian friend to come with me, and she came! Only problem, she wanted to go home for the night. Also I did my thesis presentation, which went so wrong I couldn't even have guessed. I asked my teacher to give me heads up, because I panic, and she betrayed me, she threw me to the wolfs, she being the queen of the wolfs.
May:
Farewell party! The first time after Scottish 2009 spring that I ended up into a bar! And it was great, although she danced hours, and I had my slippery shoes. In addition I did my Spanish exam and only then heard it was my last Spanish, I was in shock. I had studied it only few short years!
June:
I studied, trying to survive on the icy balcony. I thing its really unfair, that on this building the southern balconies were empty and still I'm not allowed to change apartments. Also this was the first time I've done anything during the Midsummer night's eve. I walked with my friend, although, once more, she wanted to go home for the night. Also we had our Dark Ages Fare, after which my friend hugged me loooong and left back to Croatia.
July:
A surprise visit! My friend from Scotland, Belgian girl came to Finland and wanted to see me. Problem was that she under estimated the distances. Yes, I know that it took you only 6 hours to drive to your cabin, but it will take me 24 hours on a bus you see there's surprisingly no straight bus lines to the "grand northern forest". And yes, in Finland we have more than one forest, can you please say the name of the nearest town... Well, we decided to meet in Helsinki, the duration was to last 20 minutes in MacDonalds, the train cost me 30€, but no biggies...
The good thing was that I visited National Library and got some books, which I still haven't read.
August:
I was at home picking berries and making juice to last the whole winter, I didn't know I wouldn't be home the whole winter... Also I had studied the whole summer for the French entrance exam, but did the Italian one and got in. Shite!
September:
Went to a job interview into a fastfood restaurant, and didn't get the job. How sad is that! So I decided to study, study, study...
October:
I was already behind in studying. Italian is soo difficult. I have no change to make my thesis.
November:
My student society is falling apart because of our 10 years anniversary. My so called friend decided to open up on the public email. This wasn't the first time I've regretted asking her to join us. But fortunately our yearly society meeting went well and we even got ourselves a new board!
December:
Our anniversary party was amaazing! I could talk the whole time, I could change groups and still there was no problem. Even with boys! The sparkling wine didn't help my studying the next day. Exams came and went, some well, some so bad I can't even tell... And Christmas holiday; 10 days without studying, a heaven. Once again atmosphere was bad, and people were sick, but whatever.
