Springy updates..

Ive been such a bad little green guy..
The whole thing with getting this blog was so I could tell you all about the wonders and trips and truly amazing people that crosses my way. But Looking back on this spring I come to find that Ive faild in doing that.

BUT, I guess there is nothing saying that I can´t steel Miikas computer when she goes to lunch or to the gym later tonight and fill you all in on the blanks no is there?

So, Ill get right on it then. Starting with: The Spring school in Helsinki

That was realllly something, for al of you who missed it - Im so sorry.
Cause we all had a great time.

M:
Arrived in Helsinki and feelt like a "?" were I stood at the centeral station, turned to my left and the smile on my face grew even bigger. There were 2 girls with the exact same paper as me looking just as "?" as I did.. so we decided to go together.
Arrived pretty much in time to check in and get some food. After dinner it was time for culture eavning and beside some interesting food and drinks I learnt how to dance like "Yxii ja Kakksii"
T:
The day included all from info about running a multicultural project, quizes, Cultural experience and finaly a meeting with Finnish center Youth. Miika made friends with the Belgums and Dutch and the night ended pretty late with sauna and all it brings.
W:
Early morning we went in to Helsinki for a visit at the parlament.
I meet with their president too :D well okay, it wasnt the president of Finland, but well the one of Finlands CUF. After parlament we were free to go see and do pretty much anything we wanted. I went with Peter, yxii ja kakksii, chris, astrid, monica and besides visiting the american amasade (also known as Mcdonalds) we meet with Rasmus and Magnus, went on a boattrip and meet with a live statue..
Back at the youthcenter we had dinner and went in to town for some great finnish music, one of Olesja:s favorites. Miika reviled that she looooves to dance and infact does have a fun-crasy side to her...didnt make it back home untill closer to 5 the following morning.. ( did I mention she was with the the dutch, belgum and mr Iceland? )
T:
How do you stay attractive on the job market? first question of the day followed by a visit from Kimmo Sasi (Mp - National Coalition party) who told us more about Finland´s immigration policy. Some coffe, dinner, lectures and the day ended traditionly with - sauna.
F:
The Dutch and Belgums left early for a meeting abrod.. so it was pretty quiet this day. Day started with breakfast and went on with Intergration and immigration (Finnish prespective to EU issu). After that it was time for Sanna Penttinen to enter the stage and tell us some about the national board of education.
Olesja then handed out some workshop material and we were told to prepere a presentation for the following morning. Finiched of most of our work and then it was time to see some more of the finnish nightlife. Went to a new club but must say that we had alot more fun on Wednesday then we did tonight.. Sense we had a presentation the following morning we went home pretty early.
S:
Last day in finland.. Had the week really passed by that fast?
The day started with our group presentations and after that - SUNNY! finally sun =)
We got some free time in Helsinki with the lovely miss Julia as our exellent guid.
She showed us the monument, walked along the seaside and had some great pics taken. ( Miika and mr Baywatch - you looked like pure celeberty, must be the photographer - Astrid your the best!) Back at youthcenter it was time for the final dinner together and last - but not least - SAUNA!
One last chickenrace - guys vs. girl - and it ended in a tie between my girly and mr russia..
Night ended with a nice talk with the now sitting Vice president of LYMEC and some politic discussion with my newly found friends.
S:
Woke up and there was just something wrong.. Miika was running around like a crasy chiken who had just lost its head. But she had all right to, insted of beeing boked on the 13:50 flight, we were boked on the one leaving Helsinki at 11:40!
But no biggy, about 15 minutes after waking up she had packed out bags, we were done with breakfast and was on our way to the airport.. Meet with mr & mrs Iceland and miss swe-ger-bossnia and had a nice little chat with them before it was time to go home.

Back home in Skellefteå it was a quick teatime with mum before getting straight back to work.
