Because I am lame, here are two more sentences from my latest Finnish course worksheet that made me chortle.

Keke lienee jo Palloliiton faksihuoneessa työntämässä eurosaavutuksiaan laitteeseen.

Lyhytkin harjoitus riittäisi lihaskunnon ylläpitämiseen, mutta joukkueen jäsenet ainoastaan sosialisoivat seurustelevat hallilla.(Even

Oh! ♥ This is my favourite post EVER X3

As much I love English and Spanish, Finnish still pwns all :'DD

Hee! I bet you're just saying that because you miss hearing Finnish everyday :'DD (No, I'm just kidding~)

It seriously feels a little weird to be living in a country where nobody else speaks Finnish, doesn't it? I remember feeling kind of strange during and after my stay in Brighton, and it took me a while to get used to hearing Finnish again. (Weirdly enough, France didn't really affect me in the same way probably because I still had my weekly chats with keksimonsteri [and you :'D].)

...Finnish is made of win ♥

P.S. How has Vista been working out for you? I remember that you had a few problems with your Word, but how has it been otherwise? Mom's thinking about buying a new computer, so she'd be interested in hearing your opinion ^^

It sort of does, yeah! The realization hits me every once in a while. For instance, when any of Stella's songs come up in iTunes, it takes me a while to get used to the language change. It'll be really interesting to come back at Christmas! >D

But while I feel very immersed into the language here, sometimes, when I get excited, Finnish interjections etc. totally slip out :'D

How has Vista been working out for you?

I haven't had any problems whatsoever. The Microsoft Office thing, I had an older version installed (one for XP) and Vista couldn't quite run it. But I have a new one now and it works like a charm! So I'd actually recommend Vista; it's pretty and so far problem-free ^^;

P.S. Can I friend you on ~*~Facebook~*~? :'D
