A Few Lists

Hi Everyone! Sorry I missed yesterday's post. Things were pretty busy. I've been working hard on math and I spent a long time cooking and talking to people on Skype! It was nice to talk to them, but I was computered out. Anyway, rather than give a detailed account of everything I did (which you are probably sick of already), this post will consist mainly of some lists.

Things about Finland you might not expect

• The produce is exceptionally good
  
• There are slot machines in grocery stores, bars, and restaurants
  
• It is really really dry
  
• Smoking is banned in most places but everyone ignores that
  
• The clouds seem to move very fast
  

Things I brought that I wish I hadn't

• My boots. They are awesome and sturdy but I can't put them on due to my injured foot.
  
• My really heavy winter coat. I haven't worn it yet, because my REI groove jacket is super warm and wind and waterproof. A few layers under it will keep me toasty.
  
• A dress shirt. No use for it here.
  

Things I didn't bring that I wish I had

• My running shoes
  
• My slippers
  
• A good kitchen knife
  
• A nice set of sheets
  
• More long undershirts
  
• More math books
  
• More wool socks
  
• A bookbag
  
• A bike tool
  

I could continue, but I've got run now. I miss you folks!
