Moi!!

I said Tuesday was my update day right.. Oops! Have been too busy I guess ;-).
Oef I've got a lot to tell, but I try to keep it short!
Last weekend we went to Russia with the Summerschool. We went there by buss and it was quite a long ride... We had to wait at the border for two hours or something, but the weather was good so everybody was laying in the grass while we were waiting to get across the boarder. When we were in Russia we drove to our hotel (which was beautiful!) in St. Petersburg and we had dinner together. After that everybody went to sleep because it has been an exhausting day. The rest of the weekend we visited a couple of museums, we went to the Chamber of Commerce and we visited an University to talk with Russian students. I liked that a lot, it was very interesting to see how their educationsystem works and all. On saturday we went to a Spanish restaurant and had the best meal ever, haha! St. Petersburg is an amazing city, I was really overwhelmed! The buildings are so beautiful, the churches, everything is amazing. I want to recommend everyone to go there once, you have to see it!

We got back on Sunday evening and on Monday we had tutorials at the University again. Everyone was exhausted, haha. On Tuesday we went to the beach after school to go windsurfing and to barbecue! It was so much fun, the weather was great and everyone was there, so it was amazing! But on Wednesday the tough part started... We had to do our final presentation from our Business Case on Thursday, so we worked on our presentation the whole day!
Today we had our presentation and it went very well, so that's a huge relief!
Now I have to finnish some essays and prepare another presentation for tomorrow, but I'll manage.

I learn so much from this Summerschool, it's unbelievable. I feel like the level of education is really high. We have tutorials about intercultural communication and presentation skills. Especially the last one I really enjoy! I feel like my presentation skills already developed.
Besides that, I also learn a lot from working with other cultures in a project group. My groups consists of two Americans, one boy from Taiwan and me. It's a challenge to cope with those different cultures and you have to adapt, but it's a lot of fun!

Tomorrow is our last day at the Satakunta University of Applied Sciences in Pori and then we go to Rovaniemi on Monday! I'm looking foward, I'm really excited about Lapland!
Tomorrow the final presentations will take place and after that it's finally time to relax! I'm going to see my lovely Finnish friends again (I feel like I have abandoned them the last two weeks ;-)) and hang around in the parc, because on Sunday it's going to be 28 degrees!

That was it for now,

Bye!
