That's a wrap, y'all

Hey ho silver lining.
The other day Annu, Sanni and I acted on impulse and left for a festival in Pori. It was a nice weekend, but yep, nice to be back. Pori isn't exactly my cup of tea, should I say. Pictures by Annu:

i've decided that, postcards or no postcards, I have a crush on you.

thank you for your honesty!
and with the postcards, i'm guessing this is a classic "pot blaming the kettle" situation. but i am an asshole, i know. it's so hard to get things done, even if i try, i swear. holidays are so surreal.

i've come to the firm conclusion that no finnish town is exactly my cup of tea.

(it's actually almost shameful, but i've been to less than ten different cities in finland. i know the map of india better than the map of finland. do you ever feel like you were born in the wrong country?)

I haven't seen ten Finnish towns either, this year I've been trying to travel a bit because I often do feel ashamed when it comes up in a conversation. But Turku (at least so far) and Helsinki are seriously the only places in this country that don't make me panic and give me this "gottagetawayasfastaspossible" reaction. Sometimes they do too, but I cope. I don't know where else to go.

About being born in the wrong country... sometimes I think so, but it's impossible for me to imagine what it would be like not to be Finnish (or not to be able to define myself that way, the easy way). I mean, if being Finnish doesn't give you perspective then what the hell does?

Oh Brian, you're so much fun these days!

And thanks, I think after all these years me and my hair are finally starting to understand each other. I've given up and I no longer try to tame it, and suddenly it just started to behave on its own.

I often feel like I'm in the wrong venue... very often... but it's almost amazing how I've stopped caring.

Yeah I need one of those financial whatevers too. I have to go talk to one as soon as I get to Turku. I'm a bit ehem about it, though, 'cause what's it gonna look like if the first thing I do in a new university is find someone who'll get me out of there? (But really, I need to start planning this right away because it'll take me a million years to save the money. So yeah, give me his number, some Canadian $$$ would be HOT!!)
