I'm in Orlando, Florida for the Major League Gaming convention here for the weekend. My brother and 3 friends came down for the weekend with my mother, my dad, and myself. They're so exciting and having so much fun. Last night, they were up until 3 AM in the hottub with all these hugely famous Halo 2 gamers and they got invited to a LAN party ( Read more... )

I got back at 1 AM on Sunday and today was my first day of school. I got to see everyone again, which was nice, and my schedule itself seems simple enough, although the classes aren't. 6 APs and one regular, but that's Anatomy...so it might the hardest of all. I'm a little bit heartened because I got back my AP over the summer and I got a 3 in ( Read more... )

Going home tomorrow/today, wee!

The some of the other Americans and Saana and random other Finns and myself are going clubbing until 2 AM, getting to the airport at 5 AM...and the rest is from there.

I've set up a Flickr gallery. Click here to view. I'll be updating it as often as I can as I go along, so if you want to, you can see what I'm seeing. View it from last to first for ( Read more... )

I'm stealing a church wifi signal here in DC. I feel almost guilty. But it's a Catholic church, so not too guilty. XD ( Read more... )

I leave tomorrow from Jacksonville and fly to DC, where I'll be staying about 3 days for a pre-departure orientation. Then I fly from DC to Frankfurt and from Frankfurt to Helsinki. From there, I will go to Turku for about 3 days of post-arrival orientation. Then, on July 1st, I'll get to meet my family. When I get there, I'll have my internet ( Read more... )

I didn't want to tell everyone until I had some decent pictures, but yesterday morning I got all my hair cut off. I donated over 11 inches to Lock for Love. It was my second time and if anyone would even consider it, please please please do it. You don't have to cut your hair as short as I did - I did that on purpose. A lot of times, they can leave ( Read more... )
