Minusta on tullut kynsiviila-riippuvainen.

I'm actually pretty excited about this Writing-in-English thing! I get to practice my spelling, and Miss Groves doesn't have to use Google Translator to read my wonderful texts about how she's such a horrible teacher! Great, isn't it?

My life's pretty much nothing but music at the moment. This week it has been the musical, next week it's going to be the choir. We'll have our winter concert on Thursday and dress rehearsals on Monday and Tuesday. And the best thing EVER is that my family will be able to watch our winter concert.♥ They're going to Skype it to Finland. I'm sooooo excited and happy. And nervous.

It has really been so weird, I've actually had something to do after school lately. So I'm not anymore sitting on my bed from 3 to 9 staring at the wall. And eating. And then going to bed. I've also been thinking maybe I should start at the school's skiing club. I love skiing so much and I heard they're doing some trips. That would be awesome.

Okay I guess I have to tell that I was at the call backs. I wasn't as freaked out as the day before, until I had to go up on the stage and sing in front of everybody. I guess I did okay, there were some pretty talented kids. After singing they made us read some parts. I wasn't nervous of that at all, acting is something I've learned to be pretty comfortable with. I didn't get the chance to read a lot though. Some of the scenes were hilarious. I hope I'll get some small part, I would be so happy for that!

I stayed there after school and came home around 8. I was so dead tired, I hadn't eaten anything but the lunch, but I wasn't hungry at all. I was just so mentally exhausted. I went to lay to my bed but couldn't sleep. I just laid there. I felt like sleeping for a year. It really is nerve racking. For me at least! I still can't wait till the musical starts and I get something to do all the time.

My lovely grandparents sent me some recipes of Christmas desserts and then Christmas music, notes I mean. I might bake something super delicious some day... Omnom. I printed the notes and I've been trying to play some of them with that super lovely (sucky) keyboard. I can't wait to go to my next host family especially for one reason: real piano♥ I miss having a piano so much. Well, only about 25 days. It'll be sad to leave Skorics though. They have become another family to me, and I do love them really much. But it's always good to experience different kind of things. It would be kinda cool to have third host family too!

My weekend is probably going to be as normal as usually. Nothing special. I still haven't been to Pittsburgh, can you believe that! I hope Jack and Laura will take me there some day. Or somebody. I just want to go and see it so bad. Talking about them, guess who's going to be in Florida in a week?! We'll leave next Saturday and I'll get to explore Disney World for a one long week. Lovely. I'm exciteeeeeeddddd!

It just came to my mind, I haven't told you guys how Americans eat ranch with everything, have I? It's the dip thing if you don't know. Okay, so I'm home alone this night, I walk to the fridge and I'm going to eat some chicken. I'm looking for some ranch dressing, can't find it, and I'm like DARN, we're out of ranch, I can't eat my chicken now. And then I was like, WAIT, since when have I cared if there's ranch or not with my chicken? I'm really becoming an American. That's one true sign, when you start eating ranch with your chicken. And burgers, and fries, and "salad", and pizza. Then you're truly an American. And when you're ten pounds bigger than you used to be.

Ps. "Baby It's Cold Outside... Badaadbababa" I really feel like listening to Rajaton's Christmas album. It is so beautiful. Brings so many memories, sigh. Kulkuset (Jingle Bells) is just awesome, please listen to it, it makes me smile, that might happen to you too! En Etsi Valtaa Loistoa is a beautiful peace and I adore their version. And there's more...

Pps. There used to be this thing "Klikkaa jos luit" (joka muuten nollaantui nyt joka tekstistä, kun vaihdoin sen, äsh) at the bottom of each text, but now I changed it to an English version. Please click that button if you read the text, that way I'll have an idea how many readers I actually have. Thank you! And I really don't mind comments either... :----)
