Today we didn't have environmental studies lessons, so we could leave the school before 1 PM. We had to stay a bit longer in the kitchen though because there were things that needed to be done. Piia and I had to pack the paella valenciana we made today (we sell the food we make in a shop located at the school and most of the customers are old ( Read more... )

I'm bored as hell and I want to travel, to Dublin again for example. I want to do something else than school. Haha, yesterday I baked a huge amount of carrot buns (porkkanasämpylät). Two times this recipe. I had to mix the ingredients in a 10l bucket because our bowls were too small. I ended up having 6 baking trays full of buns and some of them ( Read more... )

Yesterday, friday the 13th we (my class) were at the big kitchen making food for the whole school (about 300 people that is). The only catastrophy that happened was that Teea cut a minor wound in her finger. I was the one responsible for making the salad. I had great fun grating 10kg of carrots (of course using a vegetable cutter machine, not with ( Read more... )

Today after I got home from school and gym (around 5 PM) I decided to bake. Before baking I almost chopped of a finger while chopping rutabaga for a veggie soup though. I made three cakes that have crushed Marianne sweets in them (for foreigners: hard peppermint-chocolate sweets in red-white striped wrappers made by Fazer). I tasted a slice of one ( Read more... )

I spent some time with Miia today. We went to Helsinki to visit a shop called Heluna Fashion in Töölö. They sell cosmetics that are not tested on animals and shoes that aren't made of leather. I also visited Backstreet because I had to wait for a bus home for quite a long time. Now I'm damn bored and reading Quidditch Through the Ages. Doesn't make ( Read more... )

I finally decided to read the last two Harry Potter books. That's what I mostly have been doing this week. On monday after school I went to the library to get The Half-Blood Prince and The Deathly Hallows and in about a day I had read the sixth book. Now I'm about half way through the last one. It had been a long time since I last time read a HP ( Read more... )

1. Alarm at 6.30, 90% times I just snooze until 7
2. Finally wake up at 7, hating school
3. Between 7.00 and 7.30: Washing my face, putting clothes on, brushing my hair, doing my make-up (might listen to radio while doing this)
4. 7.30 - 7.55: Breakfast (usually rye bread with lettuce & cucumber, orange juice and tea, maybe some fruit as well)
5. 7.55- ( Read more... )

Today was quite an average day. At school I baked baguettes with Piia. The ingredients included crushed hazelnuts and I had fun crushing them with a blender. Teea told about her plans of partying all the summer. I went to the gym after school and read the newest Finnish Elle while being on the exercise bike. I baked some savoury buns after I got ( Read more... )

Long time since last update. Oh well, I have been quite busy with studying, working, gym and Jamie being here for over a week. He came here on thursday evening and I was at the airport meeting him. His plane was quite badly late, so I became friends with some man's pyrenean shepherd dog at the airport. The dog desperately wanted to be on my lap and ( Read more... )

Today was a shit day at school. I was tired and bitchy. Only 5 students of the 17 that were supposed to be there, showed up on time, most of the rest arrived late (popular reason being oversleeping). Yeah, I want to continue sleeping as well, but still I drag my arse to school horribly early. Sometimes I really hate that school, I don't really mind ( Read more... )
