Keep one eye on the road the other one fixed on the one you hold..
Last time I wrote here I had 3 weeks of summer break left. Now I have 3 days! :D I was supposed to write here earlier, but.. Better late than never.
So, about the weekend I told you about in the previous post. I went to the FFfin-meeting and because the weather was pretty nice, warm but bit cloudy and windy, we went to beach. We had pretty fun there. AND after many many many years, I went to swim!!! It was nice :) We were there for few hours and then I headed home and others headed to somewhere. When I came home my nephew was waiting me ^^ It was almost dinner time, so we ate and then it was time to spend time with my nephew. Couple hours later it was time for summer theater. At first I was supposed to go there with my parents but they gave the tickets to my sister and her boyfriend, so I went there with them. The play was pretty fun, I laughed a lot.
On Sunday we celebrated my birthday by making delicious cake what I decorated with my nephew. Lot of candies. My uncle, grandma and great aunt came here to have coffee and cake. The actual birthday I had on Monday, but because we had already planned other things for that day, we had the birthday party on Sunday.
So Monday came and my sister and her boyfriend went to shopping spree and so I got to spend time with my nephew. We were out for a while and we played with his cars. And we also read books. Then it was time for dinner and after the dinner we went to one play park to see what they had to offer for Miika. Well, it had almost nothing. But there was two sheep what we went to see and they were so cute. We gave them some grass to eat, also Miika was so brave that he gave some grass too. From there we went to see horses and ponies to one stable and there was also one very cute doggie. 8 weeks old(young) Parson Russell Terrier. I could take a dog like that. From there we went to beach but it started to rain pretty heavily and also some thunder was in the air, so we couldn't be there long. But it was fun.
On Tuesday morning it was time to say by-bye to my sister and co. And that's the last time I've seen Miika.
On Tuesday I also went to guided city tour which theme was Ghosts and other odd happenings in Oulu. Heard nice ghost stories and also heard that there's ghost in my favorite café and two ghosts in my favorite bar. Also heard about the most famous witch in Oulu and about Devil's stone. The Devil's stone is big stone in one park that has year 1865 engraved to it. It is said that Devil had sit top of the stone and watched how well the economic life goes in Oulu and when Devil had seen that it's went well Devil had jumped back to Hell. And after that the first big troubles in economic life had appeared.
Those things happened between 25th and 28th of July. After that I read two books; finished Brisingr by Christopher Paolini and read Coraline by Neil Gaiman.
Last Tuesday, 4th of August, I went to another guided city tour and this time the theme was Roses and romances in Hupisaari. And as you can see from the name, it was full of love stories. And during that tour I saw that Devil's stone. I also took a photo of it and you can see it here
On Thursday one friend who I've gotten to know through FFfin came to Oulu and we went to shopping spree. I showed her one shop I had found and I knew that she would like to visit there. We also visited one art shop and couple decoration shops. All those shops were nice and I would have liked to buy so many things. But I didn't. Then we went to market place and market hall and from there I found a shop that sells many different kind of coffees and teas and all that kind of stuff. From there I bought two kinds of green teas; Mango-passion and strawberry-blueberry. Both of the flavors are very yummy.
The weather has been very nice for the past two weeks. Sunny and very warm, over +20°C everyday. Hope this weather continues longer, even though it ain't nice to be at school if weather is so lovely. I'd rather be out then. :)
But this is almost a book now, so I think that it's better to end here before this becomes even longer.
