Things you learn in English class
Pictures don't do justice to it.
Even though it was quite expensive I haven't regretted buying it.
I have an English class going on right now. Our teacher is Scottish and he always talks about cultural differences.
Apparently it’s not my fault that I easily mix up k, g and c, t and d, p, and b. A lot of Finns make the same mistakes.
In Finland keeping quit means that you agree. There is really no need to say anything if you are just agreeing. Italians, however, talk a lot, especially when they agree. The Italians made some suggestion in the EU one time. The Finns though it an excellent idea and said nothing - the Italians thought that the Finns absolutely hated their idea.
Finns don’t use people’s names if it can be avoided. We don’t address people by their names. I think that most clearly this is shown when you get to know a new person. At first they will talk about their SO as “girl/boyfriend” or “husband/wife” and siblings as “my sister/brother” and pets as “my dog/cat”. When you become closer with the person they start to use names when talking about them. Really it means that you talk often enough and about things outside the weather/school/work/news. It’s first stage at becoming closer.
I had English this morning. We had to turn in a Summary. I had sent it to my email so I opened my hotmail just to notice a message from facebook: “[someone] has added you as friends on facebook”.

That little story of mine, Bonus Menthol, pretty much sums up everything that has to do with this person. We haven’t talked in 3 years and now she adds me on fb. I don’t know what to do. Ever since this morning she is all I have been able to think about. Damn.
