after the general rehearsals for the semifinals of the eurovision song contest on thursday (and yes, I'll skip school for that) I'll fly to vienna with saara. five days I have time there to get to know the university (party!), see the historical city (kate brings zubrowka!), talk all the organisational issues through with melanie (we'll bring koskenkorva vanilla) and go to öad to complain about the deposit (eurovision song contest finals!).

before returning to tampere last week I dedicated a day for all the paper work at the university. I realized that in order to be able to write my final essays I needed some literature. so I quickly copied some important looking pages from a couple of books. now I can only hope they're useful. I also visited the study advisor who signed my first version of learning agreement saying that my area of study is german studies and not scandinavian studies. I also got a new confirmation from our university as in the first one the amount of money I get from the university was wrong.
so, my friends, tomorrow I'll go to helsinki and on saturday to vienna. I'll write again when I'm back to tell you all about my "study visit".

Hi Siina,
Everything seems to start in a promising way... You're going to have a hell of year! I'm looking forward to read your crunchy stories.
What the heck with the eurovision thingie ? Why does everybody care about that show ? Can Finland win another time (hypothetically) :D ?
well, nobody really thought finland would win again, but eurovision song contest has been a real tradition in finland. I know it's not such a big deal in middle europe, but in finland and in sweden it is, has always been and will always be, I suppose. this year it was especially nice to see the "postcards" they show between the songs as they were all from finland.
