After two fun filled weeks at Tapiola following the end of school, I suddenly find myself at our grandparents, in Ylivieska. A six hour train journey from Helsinki. The hectic times just before the end of school, and the two weeks I spent busily enjoying my Summer holiday, have left me feeling somewhat agitated now that I am (by my standards) in the middle of nowhere, completely idle. Luckily the library computers offer some consolation.
In order to fill up my time here with something constructive, I have decided to take plenty of excercise in the form a 6km run every morning and a 1k swim in the afternoon. I also packed with me my Japanese textbook, so I should be able to throroughly study everything I need to know for my next course, rendering it somewhat pointless. My bag is also packed with books to read, in an attempt to improve my Finnish skills. Currently I am reading the Finnish translation of the Fellowship of The Ring. Any time left will be spent eating the delicious cooking of my grandma.
Today it seems our grandparents will drag us to the local church, where my brother and I shall observe it's beauty and pretend we are interested. Luckily they aren't complete bible heads, only as much as old people in general.
Oh yes, I will also be frequenting the library playing various dull, browser based MMO's and writing my blog.

I don't know if im gonna be visiting that church, I don't even rememmber how to get there. :)
Maybe we should spend all the spare time practicing headshots on bugs with that flygun we saw in Halpa-Halli (not that i'm going to buy it.)
You're going to STUDY during your summer holiday?!? Even I'm not that crazy. No one has a right to be more geeky than me!
And no paints and miniatures with you? Shame on you.
:D
Fear not, I have utmost respect for your right to be the geekiest.
I was intending to take some miniatures, but I hadn't planned ahead very well and didn't have any which were suitable to take... My Tau squad for example, while finished, needs to be undercoated, and I don't have any spray...
