April 30th to May 4th

Well April 30th was a pretty normal Tuesday. Had two Finnish classes with the first one starting at 7:40. Then a break, English x2 and then lunch and religion. After lunch some of the kids brought in donuts and a drink called sima which is like apple cider. It's only drunken at Vappua/labour day and it's pretty good. Wednesday the 1st of May is called Vappua and is for all the people who graduated high school to wear their caps and get drunk. I went to Vaasa with my host parents, dressed business casual( aka blazer, no tie, white shirt and tan slacks). We watched a parade, listened to a speech, looked at vender's and finally had lunch at a very very nice hotel. The lunch was a first a buffet of salad and meat an cheese, then a steak, and finally  a dessert buffet and coffee. It was really good. The hotel is so nice that I wanna rent a room. Each room is a mini suit, with a Jacuzzi and a sauna, but are like 130+ euros a night. On the 2nd we had school. It was a normal, boring Thursday. I didn't do much. Friday the 3rd was a little more interesting. I had a normal school day, went swimming in sports class which I hated and was embarrassed by my lack of swimming skills. Then I came home an watched Finland beat Germany In their first hockey game. So I was very happy. Today Saturday the 3rd was a really good day. At noon I went to Vaasa, bought a couple books, ate lunch with my football bros, went to ones house, got my butt handed to me in Madden 13, went to another friends house and met his mom and two sisters( his 17 year old sister is cute) then came home. While in Vaasa my host mom kept me updated on the USA-Austria game which USA won 5-3. At 8:15 the Finland-Slovakia game came on which Finland won 2-0. All in all a good day.
