Heippa everyone!
We are again at the end of the week, and everything is about to finnish in Lepaa. Today Rob Coleby has left, and at night Robin will do the same...so step by step this will be empty of exchange students. But....we have to enjoy as much as we can. That's why it's time for pikkujoulut; literally translated would be tiny-christmases, but actually it means pre-christmas parties. We have had one on wednesday, at Noona's place, and we also celebrated Jutta's birthday. Everything was really nice, as all the students knew that maybe that party was going to be the last party in Lepaa with all the students there. Apart from that, we also had snow yesterday. We only are lacking some cold temperatures, but I think (and hope as well) that tomorrow, or perhaps on sunday, we are having snow here again! Aaaand, about today... it's been a non-productive day for me.

After a long weekend
Yep, I'm back home to Lepaa. This weekend I had to go to Gran Canaria for swimming. Me and my team had an important competition where all teams around the Canary Island take part. My trip was intense but gratifying in some way. On thursday night Jordi, Óscarm Irene and Adrián came with me to Hämeenlinna to wait for the bus. At 2:05 A.M. (yes...really early... or late... it depends) the bus was leaving to Helsinki-Vantaa lentoasema (airport in finnish obviously :D). The flight should have left at 5:46 but was delayed ONE hour! How can it be possible!! It was the very first in the morning and it was delayed... I can't imagine how could it be in the following flights.. After being around 6 hours in the airplane (my bottom and my knee were hurting me so bad...)I arrived to Las Palmas, and my trip continued with the rest of my team. Three days and 4 competition sesions: lots of gold medals (one made by me :)), silver ones and bronze also. Eventually we couldn't get the 3rd position in the team clasification, but we were 4th. The coming back trip was longer than the other. At 4:30 A.M. the recepcionist of the hotel call me by phone: it was the time of waking up. From Las Palmas my flight was leaving at 6:30 and I was in Madrid in the morning. From Madrid to Copenhagen and from Copenhagen to Helsinki. It was around 7 P.M. and I was reeeeeally lucky beause I could take the bus at 18:50 to Hämee. When I got home the first thing I did was turning on the computer!
