September, October, Bread

11.10 Today and yesterday I've done around 3 hours of writing on my blog. I woke up today 9 and ate breakfast and started immediately. I typewrote what I had on paper. I also cleaned the kitchen and hallway. I washed up and I am going to clean my room. I am going to see the Wombats live tonight in Tavastia with Jesse and maybe Raoul. Read now about my exams and my trip in lovely Holland.

10.10 Friday. Today my mother woke me up 7:30 and I had breakfast and ran to the 8.15 train. In Helsinki I walked around for half an hour and took photos. Then I walked to the law library and sat down. I read from 9:30 to 12:45. 13:10 I met Rolle at the National Library. We had lunch together and coffee. Rolle rushed to a lecture and I walked back to uni. I continued but now writing at the Alexandria learning centre. I printed papers for my course next week and walked to Stockmann. There I took photos of Jan very close because he didn't see me behind the camera. We went to Zara and I tried tight blue and red jeans. Thomas, Helene and Sebastian came there. From there we walked to uni cafe and had dinner, pasta bolognese for 2.60 € We discussed a lot and had fun like we had in school. Jan left and we walked out. Me and Thomas took the train. He got of in Hoplax and I continued to Jorvas. A junkie was looking for his bag in the train and asked all passengers to get up so he could look under them. At home I had a half glass of whine and Camambert. Now I am here after talking to Maria.

9.10 Thursday, yesterday I had difficulties to get to uni in Helsinki. Titus and me ran to the train. The train didn't arrive. So we walked to the bus station because Pekka called and said the train traffic is all down. At that time we saw a train approach, stop and leave. A buss arrived full and we got two seats in the back of the bus. The bus was slow and packed. In Helsinki and at uni I was 10. I read until 11:45. I walked to uni cafe and had lunch with Jan. After lunch back to the law library and more EU law to read. 4 pm I stopped and made a brief visit to Stockmann, which is a department store in Helsinki. There were some special offers. I took the same train back with mamma. An hour later Titus came home. We had dinner, Laksa. That's Asian. Then I spoke with Maria and played guitar and sang. Then sleep

8.10 Wednesday - I was home the day and studied and planned future things to do study wise and finished my job application and CV.

7.10 Tuesday - I woke up home in the South of Finland. I started writing my application.

6.10 Monday - I had an exam, family law. I woke up 8 and drank a cup of tea and some bread. The questions were ok and I'll pass. Writing and exam there was the same, so very much. I had lunch alone after discussing the questions with Make. I hurried home and cleaned the flat in thirty minutes. It was dirty after a week of no maintenance because of the reading all day long. I hurried to the station and bought a ticket to Jorvas. I sat down on the train and travelled to Jorvas. 6 hours later I was there. At home I was hungry and I had something but I forgot what that was.

5.10 Sunday - Reading at Tritonia. I had lunch with Kim in the Chinese restaurant. We shared pork and chicken. Sweets for keeping up the reading pace. I read until 9 and biked home, the day before the exam

4.10 Saturday - Reading at Tritonia, only reading. A lot of law students were reading on Saturday. It was nice, it's always better in comparison to reading alone.

3.10 Friday - Reading at Tritonia. After a day of reading I went jogging for 50 minutes.

2.10 Thursday - I read the whole day at Tritonia. In the night I watched a film "Death Wish"

1.10 Wednesday - Reading at Tritonia. Jogging in the evening for 5o minutes

30.9 Tuesday - Reading at Tritonia, very intensively.

29.9 Monday - Today feels like Tuesday, not Monday because I was reading hard already yesterday. I woke up 8 and cleaned the flat. Biked to uni. Read from 9:30 am to 8:30 pm. 100 pages of family law. I can say it's like before, except that I really want to pass my exams, so there is slightly more pressure on me right now. My pace is good so I feel confident. It's like a sports performance. At lunch I made a new friend. I met Stanley from Cameron, studying public administration here at the uni of Wasa. We had a nice talk. For instance about polygamy. I had dinner at the uni cafe again, pasta. With chicken. There is only one choice. It includes everything and is only 1,70 €. Lunch is 2,35 €. Both include food, milk and bread. Soon I am going to bike home.

28.9 Sunday - I woke up 8:30. I went to the library for 9:30. There I read from then to 8:30. 100 pages of family law again. I had a break when I walked to the Chinese restaurant, Xiao pei. There I had sweet and sour chicken. Before I was served I sat in the resturant. I felt so content even though you couldn't say my life was anything else than imperfect. I had a chat with the lady running the place. We talked a bit about Scotland. I bought a banana and sweets. It was very windy. After reading I biked back. I jogged for 50 minutes, had a sauna and had dinner. Yesterday leftovers. I went to sleep.

27.9 - Saturday - I woke up early. I packed my bag and ate a plate with poridge and apple cream. I ran to the train at 12. In Helsinki I bought a ticket for the train to Vasa. I read on the train. I left 12 home and arrived 18 in Wasa. The last train was replaced with a train so it was even slower. In Wasa I just managed to buy some food before the shops were closing, 18. I walked to my mothers flat and my old home, it was a year ago. There everything was the same. I went to sleep after eating, minced meat and pasta.

26.9 Friday - I woke up 8-9. I had breakfast. After breakfast I helped my brother building his greenhouse. We sawed strips of wood. That for 2 hours. Then I went inside to my friend, family law. My father returned from shopping. Isak, Pekka and me had lunch. Kebabs. Then I read on. Titus and Margareta returned from school and work. We had dinner and after dinner we had a sauna. I swam twice in "the hole" next to our garden, in the woods.

25.9 Thursday - On Thursday I took the 10 o'clock train to University of Helsinki in Helsinki. There I met two professors in labour law. One of them the most important person within the field of labour law in Finland. I got 12 credits, but also have to participate in seminars coming in January. Then I went to Isak and he served me courgette gratin. I went back. I saw a man vomiting on a tram station. Then I met the teacher in International Law. The professor is Martti Koskenniemi. But his not at the uni at present. I got 15 out of 15 credits. After that I walked to the institution of philospohy and psychology. There I met Rolle for the first time in a very long time. A year or something. We had immediately a very amusing discussion. I took the tram to the bus station and took a bus home.

24.9 Wednesday - On Wednesday I went to University of Helsinki in Helsinki! I met the professor in EU-law, Juha Raitio. To discuss credits earned in Glasgow. I got 11ECTS of 15. Then I met Titus and we took the subway to Verkkokauppa after returning a book to the Parliament Library. We had a look at electronics. Then we went back to the city centre and Titus went home. I met Thomas and Jan after having a cappucino. We went for a pizza to our favourite place. The Trance pizzeria. It was fun to see them again. I took the train home after that. Some time after that I went to sleep.

23.9 Tuesday, I am on the train. Leading the standard blog writers life. The laptop in front of me with headphones in my ears. I had a hamburger fast food meal on train from Vasa to Seinäjoki. The last two days I've spent in Vasa. The first days of real studies.

I had an exam today. International private law or battle of laws. So I've been hitting the CISG and The Rome Convention the last two days. There was only one question to answer because I've attended a lecture that frees you from the other question. I'm sure I'll pass and have three points more. I hope it's going to be a good mark.

I woke up today 6. I had breakfast and biked to the uni along the sea side promenade in thick fog. I revised until 8:45. I biked to Virastotalo and sat down. The question wasn't properly translated from Finnish to Swedish, which confused me. After one and a half hour I was done. I walked to uni and there I met Minttu and Noora for the first time in more than a year. I had lunch, a very Finnish one with a thick sausage and mashed potatoes, with Noora, Minttu, Eeva, Hanna and Pia-Maria.

After lunch I walked back to Virastotalo and had a very useful talk with Marja-Riitta about my studies. I am now very clear on what I have to do and what I have done not too smartly. I'll make an official transcript soon, so I know myself, where I am.

After that I biked home and cleaned a bit. Then I packed some fish we fished in the summer and some blueberries my father picked last summer. I left the flat around 14:50. I walked via Hesburger and bought a meal. The church were ringing consistently, because of the shooting. Maria sent a message about it. Otherwise I wouldn't know. Now I am on the train.

22.9 Monday, I woke up 8 and had only a cup of tea because I didn't have any bread. I biked to uni and started reading, first in the aquarium and when the library was opened I read on the forth floor from 10 to 7. I had lunch with Jonna. Tritionia and reading there was so much the same. It felt good. To read in that way again. The lunch was meatballs and potatoes. I had a pasta around 5 and a snack with Emil around 7. Then I continued in the aquarium again, until 8:45. Then I biked home via a shop and bought cheese and bread. At homed I continued reading until 11. I had some sandwiches and a shower in between the reading.

21.9 Sunday. I walked up as you normally do on Sundays, not too late nor early. I had breakfast, read some law, cleaned my room and packed my bag for Vasa. Then Isak arrived. He had a small radio controlled aircraft with him. It was cool until the battery died after 15 minutes. I'm going to take a picture of the business, just to let the world know. Around 12 Oliver and Wilhelm arrived. We jammed after some repairing. Unfortunately we don't have a bass amp now. We jammed for a couple of hours but could not record our two songs, because of the amp.

We had lunch, wok. We were eight people eating. We had also Dutch cheese and cake for dessert. Then I packed my last things and run to the train. In Helsinki I got of and sat on the railway station opening, reading waiting for the train. I bought a ticket and something to eat on the way. I got on the train 18:30 and arrived in Vasa 22:30, 500 km north. The journey was pleasant for the exception of two proud under officer conscripts. My grandmother was right. Officers are disciplined dogs. These were the dogs, still being disciplined. I haven't had the opportunity to meet anyone else yet. I walked from the station to the flat. It's through the centre of Vasa, around 20 minutes walking. It was cold and my breath was steam. I dropped the bag at the flat. It was nice to be back. I walked down to the harbour and checked our mighty ship, and it was still there. I walked back, around the prison. I had a cup of tea and had quick watch at the telly. No Finnish channels left. Then I went to sleep

20.9 Saturday - I woke up already 9 a clock. I took the train with Pekka to Kyrkslätt and from there to Helsingfors. We ran to the university to attend a doctors disputation, that is when someone gets his PHD. This time it was Trygve Söderling. Our old neighbour and friend. I enjoy reading his articles. He writes well. There were all the big ones. All the big ones in Swedish literature in Finland, Lars Hulden, Claes Andersson, Bo Carpelan och Jörn Donner. I was taking photos after the presentation and debate when a woman came up to me and asked who I was taking photos for. I said for myself. She said she was from a paper and she needed some photos. That's how I got my first job. I don't know if they are going to publish any of them. Then me and m father took the bus home. At home we had dinner after a while. In the evening we had a sauna.

19 Fredag - Today I woke up 10:30. Almost cured. I walked outside. Isak was building on his greenhouse and Pekka on his shed for wood. I discussed with both, about building. I walked back inside from the cold. I had breakfast, a very Finnish one. Dark bread, dishwater tea, weak cheese and some sausage. After breakfast I tried to get a hold of the world again. I read emails to know what lectures were served, jobs, friends and so on. After that I organised my room which still in disorder. I started reading international private law. The first real studying involving translation from Finnish to Swedish. I studied for only two hours yet so I cant say how it exactly was, or is going to be, the incoming year. Fine I guess just like the years before.

Titus came home 3 and Mamma 4 to distract me. Then Jonna and a friend of hers arrived. To pick mushrooms in the woods above our house. An hour later we had dinner, pizza. I was lively and told them a lot of stories, not only about Holland. After dinner some surfing. Then me and Titus and me jammed before he took the 9:14 train. I'm sitting here now. Wondering when to go Vasa and read for my exam on 23.9. It's going to be only one question because I've done some additional work and it's only one book. Now is now. My blog is me now.

Trip To Holland

5,6,7

8.9 Monday - Vaknade kl 6:45 to sing for my mother. Me, Pekka and Titus sang and I gave a card and the gift that we hadn't bought yet. A rain cape. After singing I went back to sleep. Woke up 9:30 and ate breakfast with Titus. Titus left and I finished the packing. I found a new wallet on the attic. I took the 11.14 train to Kyrkslätt and back towards Esbo and there I got on the bus that took me to the airport. The driver was unusually friendly but shy as well. He promised to drive a passenger to a stop that wasn't on the route. I got of the bus and checked in at one of the machines. A Russian couple tried to pass me in the queue. I handed in the bag and walked through security. The guard looked scared when I spoke Swedish. On the other side I listened to music and found a cheep Sony tele to my camera. I bought some Malax limpa as a gift and got on the plane. I survived the flight and and felt for a moment comfortable after lunch with a cup of tea in my hand.

I Holland I got of, naturally. From the plane window I saw a patch work of green and brown rounded by wind plants and houses. I took my suitcase and walked out through the security.

There I met Maria. The airport was busy, Schipol. We bought tickets from a vending machine. We took the train from Schipol to Arnhem. The trains were yellow and we had a snack on the way, from Albert Hein to go. In Arnhem we took the bus to south south.

Their house were Dutch. We put my stuff in place and then we biked to coop(super), to get food. We bought vegetables and prawns, strawberries and Dutch stuff.

We biked home and the biking roots are wonderful in Holland. All kind of different people bike in Holland, not like in Finland where all are thin sport freeks. We made food watched Iranian TV and BBC. Then we watched Manhattan and went to sleep.

9.9 Tuesday - Woke up 9:30. We had breakfast of a Dutch kind. We had bread(expensive) with old butter and cheese. Also musli, like the Finnish start musli. After breakfast a shower. The weather was splendid. Then we took Maria's bike after I pumped air in the back wheel. We biked along the wonderful bike routes to Arnhem Zuid. There we saw a newly dens area called America. We took the train to Niemegen. There we took the bus to Maria's uni. The uni was good and beats maybe Glasgow and Helsinki in facilities. I met there a guy who was in Glasgow in the same time as we. I met two of Marias friends, Alexis and Ellen. They talked about Harvard. It was hot in the sun. The long street was the Thomas of Aquino street and the tall building was called Erasmus. From uni we took the bus back to the train station. We walked towards the city centre. It was what I would describe as a traditional Dutch town. There were coffee shops. We sat down at the blond monk and had a traditional Belgian beer with a snack. That was bread with olive paste. There we relaxed and continued to walk around in the town and towards the train station. We were going to meet Maria's sister in Utrecht. We took the train back and biked to the house. From there bus to Arnhem trainstation and to Utrecht by train. On the train station in Arnhem we saw people wearing red. They were going to a Leonel Richie or someone. I dont know him. In Utrecht it was dark. I saw the first canals when walked to Nazilas place. She had food ready when we arrived and that was good because I was starving, like Maria did constantly when she were in Finland. Pasta with a good Italian sausage. We ate in her room. She has a wonderful garden outside her window. It's walled and four square meters, with one plant. After dinner we got gradually more and more tired and fell asleep.

10.9 Wednesday - We woke up around 10 and had a lazy morning. I had pasta and bread with Hagel Slag. Then we washed up and walked out. We walked along the small canal and saw a boat filled with seniors. The boat was flat. Like some piece of equipment from a kitchen. Then we walked around in the best part of Utrecht. We saw the Oude Gracht and followed it to a nice post office. There nearby we had a coffee. A cat was sleeping in the window. After that we visited a random church. We were hungry so we bought sandwiches from Surinam and ate them by a canal. It made me burp and it was tasty. Then we bought a new pair of trousers to me because all the trousers I had with me had holes. We dropped the keys at Nazilas place and walked to the train station and took the train to Arnhem.

The bus took us home. There Maria's mother opened the door and I met her. I met Maria's father as well. We ate good food together. I didn't speak neither Dutch or Farsi so we had to be extra creative. Iranian rice with chicken was super. Then we watched United 93, maybe. Then I went to sleep.

11.9 Thursday - I woke up 8:30. I had rolled around in half sleep for an hour or so. We ate breakfast. Spanish grapes and Mortadella. We also tried Malaxlimpa. Mortadella with Malaxlimpa, nice. Also cheese, tomatoes and mini cucumber. It was all good. Also tea and the half instant coffee. I packed my bag and realised later that I only forgot the water. We took the bus to Arnhem and the train to Amsterdam. From there we walked towards the city centre but changed soon direction to find a map for free. We didn't find one but a guide who explained the way to the new library. We found it and spent an hour or so to find out weather it was nice or not. Although it was packed with nice details and crafted with style. I'm not sure if it really was that mind bending and unconventional in library architecture. Åbo library was as good at least. Architects seem to be stuck in the idea of what a library should be like. A librarian should plan a library.

Then we walked along the narrow streets and crossed bridges over canals experiencing Amsterdam. We saw different cultures and it was beautiful, neat and cosy. I started raining and we had first shelter under a three and then in a cheese shop. In front of the cheese shop the police men were waiting. We tried something Dutch in the shop and then continued, crossing more canals . We saw small and big boats. We went to gallery and tried perfumes for 100 a bottle. A lot to me. The guy pushing them said he used three at the same time. He gave something to me that smelt like a toilet. We continued to second hand shops. The soul of them was wicked. They had been commercialised and expensive. The Finnish are better. A lot of crap with a few pearls you can find if you are very lucky. After having a look in a couple of them we sat down for lunch in a place where a cat was sitting on the same table where my bowl of soup was. It was a nice big bowl of noodle soup. The cats eat the rats of canals. After eating we paid and continued. More canals and streets. We saw some tourist places. Maria said we should avoid them. We went to a park and saw some expensive houses. We had a picnic. Lemon sorbet and egg bread, water, raspberries and blueberries. Then we walked to the Van Gogh museum and Riejks musem. From there we walked to the debate.

Maria had bought ticket for a debate about food security. There were three speakers. The first one was good and the two other were ok. But not really visionaries. We got a UN food package each. There was a break and we left. We walked a while in the night of Amsterdam. We got on a tram. We saw the first bike accident. We took a train to Utrecht. We walked to Nazila. On the way I had my first Smuller's fries with mayo and a crocette. We went to sleep at Nazila's.

12.9 Friday - In the morning after eating we took the train to Rotterdam. At the station, inside a Burger King Frida was waiting. It was raining, grey and foggy and the houses were high and made of steel and glass unlike in the other cities where I had been. We took the tram to her house. It was an redesign church. It was nice and big inside, compared to Glasgow. From there we took the tram towards the city. There we entered a museum. The museum was big and it was contemporary art. We ate inside salad and a piece of a cake. It was called Boijmans Van Beuningen. After the museum we walked towards the city centre and there we took the train back. We said good bye on the station to Frida. The next time I'm going to see her is maybe summer 2009. We took the train to Utrecht. From Nazilas in Utrecht Farzed drove all of us to Marias parents place in Arnhem. On the way we listened to both Arabic and Iranian house. We had dinner at their place. Kuku, filled peppers, potato salad, rice in an Iranian way. After dinner Nazila brought down her sitar and gave it to me. It wasn't tuned so I had to tune it. I tried to use the tuner to get some clear tones, but I couldn't. With the help of Maria one string was broken. This ended the awkward situation I was in. A while before that Maria's father called his friend who was a professional musician back in Iran. He plays the Santour. I couldn't understand how I was supposed to tune. Luckily, the broken offered me a way out.

13.9 Saturday - I woke up and we had breakfast We went biking. We biked over the Rehn river. In Arnhem we parked our bikes in a bike parking house. That was something new for me. There we dumped the bikes and had a look in many different shops, to find shoes for me. We didn't. Then we had a coffee and an apple pie. After the apple pie we walked around some more. We had some Vietnamese Spring Rolls. Then we took our bikes and biked to the more immigrated part of the city. There we shopped some Chinese food. It was very interesting. Then we biked to the big park. There we fed animals. Getting bored with that we continued and I saw the local white house, some cows with the world trade centre in the back ground. We biked home.

At home I met the man who had the day before instructed me in how to tune a sitar. I said hello to everyone and then the preparations for the barbecue started. It was some delicious grilled lamb and beed with rice in a Iranian way. After and during we listened to the Santour. I had the opportunity to try as well. Around 1 we went to sleep.

14.9 Sunday - On Sunday I woke up later. Around 12 we took Farzad's car and drove first to their father's uncle. His was moving into a new place and we had a tea there. From there we continued towards to the Hague. On the way I saw some windmills. They are beautiful. In the centre we got of. I had raw herring at a stall and Maria had deep fried fresh Kibbelingen. Back in the car we drove to some other place where I saw the Greek embassy. From there we drove to Farzad and Nushins place. There I had the opportunity to play for the first time GTA IV. And it was fun. They had understood a bit more of the game and what's essential to it, the planners. Still, they would need me, to design it still better. I've some wonderful ideas. But they are secret. After I've played a while dinner was served. It was pasta. After dinner Farzad drove us to a seaside complex. There was a hotel and the cafes and restaurants. We walked down to the water. It was so dark I couldn't estimate the size of the world on that beach. Only darkness and lights from the shore, a nearby town and a rolling light of a light house. It was nice. We walked back up to the cafes and had a cup of tea in one of them. Then Farzad picked us up. I brushed my teeth and fell asleep.

15.9 Monday - I woke up and we had breakfast in front of a big TV. We walked down the steep stairs from the house and walked to the tram station. We took the tram but it was late because there had been an accident in the centre. We had to wait for 20 minutes. We arrived to Den Haag Central. We had look at all the new buildings. Town Hall and ministries. From there we walked to the tourist office. There we found a book called something like the international lawyers walk in the Hague. We copied on our free map the targets. We started our walk with a big plate of deepfried Kibbelingen in the same place. Then we walked and saw the international prosecutor association and other places. The walk ended at my future place of work, The peace palace. It was a nice place. A church like building with the UN flag. The place was completely closed which was a bit boring. We walked around the walls and walked back towards the city. On the way back we found Turkish bread, a food store called Rutten (rotten in Swedish) and a second hand shop where i bought some LP's. In the city we found other interesting shops. We ended up by a mistake on a red light street. It was interesting and like nothing I've ever seen. There were women in the windows, mostly having some less pleasant feature. Men where gathered in the streets, looking. Also at me and Maria. Still the feeling at the street was the most strange thing with it all. There was this quietness that wasn't earthly. You could feel something, unusual, was going on. I am not a fierce defender nor attacker in the issue of prostitution. Still this feeling is something a person arguing against prostitution could refer to.

I found a toilet but did not know how to use it since it was a Muslim one.

We looked for a place to eat. Finally we found a Chinese. The food was so so. There was karaoke as well. We had to wait for service, we couldn't pay with card, so I had to get cash from an ATM and when I returned a waiter gave me a menu and asked me to sit down. When paying the waiter dropped the change on the floor. The sweet and sour chicken was deep fried.

We decided to go back to Farzed's place. There I feel asleep.

16.9 Tuesday - I woke up, had breakfast and a shower. We took the tram to the train station. There Maria bought a paper. We got on the train. We stopped in Arnhem. We had a coffee and looked for shoes to me. Couldn't find any so we continued to Arnhem. There we walked to the big park. We walked inside and got lost in Making art of LP's in the jungle. We walked around for a long time. Then back to the train and bus station. When we were back at Maria's parents place I feel asleep. I woke up and met Maria's cousin, and her child. After dinner and some talking I went to sleep.

17.9 Wednesday - We woke up in Arnhem. Maria's parents drove us to the train station. And the train station is supposed to be the most beautiful station in Europe but that's a lie. After dumping my suitcase at Utrecht station we continued to Amsterdam. We took the tram directly to the Van Gogh museum. 12.50 to get inside. There were nice paintings. I am not going to comment on them here. I was a bit ill so I would say I couldn't enjoy them as much as it is possible to do. Still, it was a very good visit, like when I were in Oslo and saw Munch. Nazila came to the museum. We walked outside two hours after arriving and then we took the tram towards a good Chinese restaurant. On the way we passed red light apartment and a man said to us:

- Education.

In front of a live porno show place. We ate good Chinese food in contrast to the food we had in The Hague. The restaurant was very loud because I Chinese boy was screaming. Maria and Nazila shared their views on bringing up children at that time so I had a good opportunity to learns the basics of Iranian childcare. After dinner we walked to Bijenkorf where we met Malini. I met her in Glasgow. We walked over canals and reached Wolvenstraat. There was a famous criminal lawyer inside the bar. We had tea and then I had a glass of rum to cure my cold. I wrote some cards to people back in Finland. Then we walked to the station and Maria and Nazila bought Swirls. We took the train back to Utrecht and I fell asleep on the floor.

18.9 Thursday - We woke up 8:30. We went to buy cheese to a very nice cheese shop. I had too big pieces of cheese. One from a farm nearby. Then we continued to Albert Hein. I bought a lot of food with the guidance of Maria. Sweets, sausage, hagel slag and more. We walked to the train station and I took the suitcase. We took the train to Schipol. There we bought a tulip onions and we had a last lunch baguettes. Then I walked to the security control and walked through and waved back for the last time for that time.

I walked straight to the gate and arrived just on time and got on the plain. I flew to Finland. In Finland I took my suitcase and took the bus to the train station in Esbo. I remember I was struck by the cold and unfriendly weather. On the train station I charged my train card and talked to Isak. Then the train came and I got off in Jorvas. Home was Pekka and Titus and I showed them the stuff I had from Holland.
