PLAY HARD, WORK HARDER

Yes its been a while hasn't it again haha, I feel as if I always open with that. Oh well, I'm here now and that's all that matters! Been super busy with school and extracurricular work this week and last. Just stuff from test's, project's and all that boring stuff. However I have some exciting stuff also to share and that is, last week I volunteered with Seb to hold a recruiting for the ESN (exchange program) tutors, which basically meant we were in the school lobby trying to get find new people interested in tutoring starting next semester. As well we get to conduct the interviews and hopefully pick them, so it's a lot of work but good fun!
I did have time for some fun also last weekend, we had our school's annual KeKa cup which is basically a football/drinking tournament where teams dress up and have chants and in good spirits we drink and play soccer the whole day. Apparently we lost all games (judges were riged I swear haha), but the point was to have fun and that we did!

Now as for this week I'm thick in the action of my new voluntary courses, Blogging and Start-up school. Blogging course is just basically we make our own blog and post on to a school blog as well, using ''wordpress.com''. That means unfortunately I can't use this blog there, however I will still keep this as my main blog and maybe post sometimes similar things on both (here's a link if you are interested: http://mixingandmatching.wordpress.com/ ) I'm always looking for ways to make my blog more creative and appealing so maybe I will pick up a few ideas from there.
As for start-up school it's basically a course and first step to becoming an entrepaneuer , we came up with an idea of starting a Haaga-Helia Radio station as it was in the works a couple of years ago. Me being the talking type and always having a somewhat of a hidden dream of being a Radio host or tv show VJ , I'm super into it so far! See how we progress...

As for the rest of the week, I honestly have no idea haha. We shall se what I come up with , haven't had anytime to plan or think of that. See you later!

Me comfortable as usual working, some pictures from our Star-up ''classroom''

 

Always time for some sushi!

AYIA NAPA! (3/3)

Now the best for the last!
Yes me and Juho went to Ayia Napa, Cyprus on the 23.8 and came back early mornig this Saturday. All I can say is I wouldn't mind going back, my body is saying no but every other part of me wants back. So basically as you could imagine it was a very drunken and boozy trip. Ayia Napa is a great party place with lots of young people and activities are arranged from day time to night time in the clubs and bars.
Me and juho's or my day consisted of late night partying sleeping maybe five hours (if that) going out to hang around town and wait for Juho to wake up or then wake him up. Then we would go eat, go hangout at the beach, do some shopping and so on and then go out to party again. We also rented some scooters for couple days to check out the whole of Ayia Napa.
On one of the days we also went on a party boat where you basically go on a boat with hundred something other people for five hours, they have two bars, music, contest's, event's and two or three swimming stops in the see through water, loved it!
On our journey we partied with some British guys, Swedish, Norwegian and so on. Mainly we made good friends with a group of Swedish guys on basically the first night and from then on we spent every night with them. Also it helped that our hotel was somewhat of a party hotel so you could basically go on strangers doors and get to know them by walking in.

Who wouldn't want to go out everyday in shorts, tank top and drink cheap cocktails.




BACK IN BORGÅ (2/3)

As I mentioned it, I was back to Porvoo to do some tutor duties for our school, I was elected to be an exchange student tutor this past spring which meant I basically had to go meet the incoming exchange students at the airport, show them their apartments, and help them out on orientation week which is Wednesday to Friday. Also of course whatever help they needed while living in Finland I try my best to help out.

Luckily for me, my good friend and classmate Sebastien also was elected as a tutor so on my down time in Porvoo I had someone I could hang out with as school's had not started yet then so there wasn't really people around. Me and Seb went to eat and just hung out around Porvoo as the weather was great and I can maybe finally understand why people say Porvoo is a great summer city, as we ate on the famous river and strolled around old town.
Also Firday we headed over to Helsinki as the exchange students had orientation and a sightseeing tour arranged for them, during that me and Seb did some shopping.

 

Oh, and I have to mention this, I recently broke my ipohne's front screen (again) and taking it to a place to repair for 100+ euros wasn't an option this time so I went on ebay and ordered a new screen fro 25e(shipping included)! Thankfully Seb knew how to change them as it is really complicated with little bits and parts. However, my point is that if you break the back or front screen buy online a new one, its so much more worth it and you can get plenty other colors also!

 

now the front screen is white, with a black button and back screen black! Im going to maybe order a gold back screen hehe
 

 

 

 

WEEKEND FESTIVAL! (triple post 1/3)

Hello all,

Yes I've been m.i.a. for a while (again) but I have a very good reason, which I will share naturally share with you!
As the last two weeks of my holiday came to an end, I attended the Weekend music festival on the 16-17.8, then the following week I came back to Porvoo for a very hectic four days as I had to do some tutor duties, taking in exchange students and helping them out during orientation week aaaand finally that weeks Friday I went for a 8 day holiday to Ayia Napa, Cyprus and came back just now early Saturday morning. So there, very hectic yes, but lots of fun!

So I thought I'd do three post's one for weekend festival, Porvoo week and Ayia Napa.
The Weekend Festival was in Kyläsaari, Helsinki on Friday and Saturday, this is a electronic music festival for the one who don't know haha. On Friday the day was headlined such artists as Example, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Calvin Harris and Armin Van Buuren. I went on Friday with Erik and we saw example, and Calvin Harris, as there was five different stages and the main artist's on two big stages it was a bit hard to decide where to go. Saturday Erik couldn't make it as he had his own gig, so I got some last minute company from my friend Camilla and we went to see David Guetta only as we arrived so late, but I can tell you it was worth the wait and he pulled of a memorable gig!
