last weeks

so i have thought of putting here good and bad things which has been in my life lately:

GOOD THINGS.
1) New people/people I've met only fastly and had good conversations. For example my last HC-guest Björn from Norway was a great conversationalists. He told me about Vipassana-meditation, which sounded so interesting, that I think, I need to try, when I am ready. It was also great to meet Aija, Latvian girl who knows finnish really well. She is interested about music and lots and lots of different things. I have also enjoyed to share short Russian/English -lessons with Andrej.

2) Movies. They are cheap comparing to Finnish one and because I like to live with vegetables and milkproducts and soya and bread, I have money to go 1-2times in a week. Well, still I use less money for movies than in Finland. I've seen funny, stupid, good, bad and average films, best one had been Wristcutters, because it was full of black humour. Worst movie, which I saw was latvian movie called Tumshie Briezi (Dark Deers). Story was stupid and only things which where something was filming (cinematography) and music.

3) School has been more informative since last weeks. It's worth of going there.

4) Fall is here. I like it a much. You know the colors and so on. And the thing, that I miss my finnish friends more than in Finland, though I haven't seen for example Ninni and Elli since last February or something like it.

5) Concerts which I have visited are awesome. Also the feeling which comes just by sitting outside of the classes in music academy gives so much new things to think. All those tomorrow's opera-singers, pianists and choirs. Think about it.

6) Walks around the city. Old town and new side. Something new everytime. This is thing which should be done more in Finland, but I think works takes all the energy and time.

BAD THINGS:

1) Problems with heating, electricity, toilet... Just small ones, but makes living a bit more difficult.

2) Violence in City: Sebastian's case, Maltes brother's case. All the beatings I have seen.. All the briberies I have heard. All the money which goes to WRONG places makes situation more complicated.

3) Problems with my mind, which are not so new one's but gets a different view in here.

4) Culture Shock, Home-sickness. Well everyone will gets it, mine has reached the worst point already. But you know, Helsinki is so much better place: safer, more variety of people, not so busy running after money and more softer values.

5) Stress of doing nothing. I will learn out of it! ;)

Not so badly here, in fact. It's just normal life.
