Kopli Corps camp!

Well, i made it out alive. Kopli corps camp ended on Friday and it wasn't quite as bad as i was worried it would be. In fact, it wasn't bad at all. Just different. I don't think i blogged about my worries about this camp. But i will now. My big worry was this, the total number of teenagers at this camp was 4. The total number of pensioners (seniors, old fogeys) was about 3 times that. So i was slightly worried just because normally young people and old people are like oil and water, one works well in a sports car, the other doesn't. So i wasn't sure how well all us young people (that's right, all 4 of us) would be able to survive. The other worry was the fact that there was a grand total of 7 males at this camp, and 4 of them were under 10. So that meant that me and my friend Priit didn't have any place were we could sleep without being surrounded by snoring old ladies. So we had to sleep on cots in the meeting room and pack up our stuff every morning. Not the best arrangement, but workable. But anyway, to make all this worse the weather was dismal most of the week, meaning that we got to go to the beach a grand total of 2 (as in 1+1) times. Not great. But we still had fun. We played Uno and Phase 10 so much that if i ever see a wild card again i'll burn it. But anyway, it was still fun. And as i said, different. I'm used to camps were every meal (except maybe breakfast) is a very noisy affair. But at this camp if i had dropped a pin during the meal time silence the resulting roar of sound might have killed us all. How interesting. But yeah. It was okay. I made myself a hit with the old ladies when i carried their stuff and told an 89 year old i had thought she was 21 (a little white lie...). But anyway, i think that's all there is to tell.

No wait, no it's not. I finished the seventh Harry Potter book. I won't give anything away, but i was shocked by some things, and the ending left me hollow. I wanted more. And i still want more. But Christopher Paolini hasn't said when his new book is out yet so i won't be reading anything quite so epic for a while. Anyway, another exciting thing is that i went to Evan Almighty. And i have a big surprise for all of you, it didn't suck! I liked it! I thought of course sequals always suck, but this one worked. I liked it. I especially loved his little prayer at the beginning. And i loved the little message that i'm not sure anyone else got, you don't have to be a Christian to do God's work, even politicians can do it. Anyway, that's about it, i'm tired now and i would like to go do some couch patatoey type things, but i have the feeling my parents are going to put me to work anyway so...ugh. Cya!

I just remembered...Luna Lovegood is Rebekka?

One thing i forgot to mention in the last post is tha beautiful Ms. Lovegood/Lynch looks very similiar to my beutiful friend Rebekka, who i am happy to say that starting monday i will be happily enjoying a week of camp with, so here's one last conspiracy thoery, and no worries, it's not a spoiler at all. What if both me and Rebekka somehow got transported into the Harry Potter books, her as Luna's twin, Sol (get the joke?). Anyway, must be off now, Cya!

Harry Potter 5th Movie and 7th book!

Hello, as you may have guessed by the title of this post, i have just seen the 5th Harry Potter movie (The Order of the Phoenix). And am also very excited that tommorow i get to go buy (AND READ!!) the 7th Harry Potter book (Deathly Hallows). Now just a warning, i know there many very militantly anti-Harry Potter people out there. So if you're one of them then don't read this post. Because i don't want nasty comments about how i must also be worshipping Marilyn Manson and Satan if i read J. K. Rowling. But all i do is read J. K. Rowling so those comments would just annoy me...just press the friendly red "X" in the upper right hand corner of the screen if you hate Harry. Okay, now i can begin. Anyway, about the movie, I LOVED IT! Best Harry Potter movie yet, which actually isn't saying much because i was greatly dissapointed by the last four. But still, it was good. One of the reasons why i liked it is because of how much they played down the relationship, and "snogging", between Harry Potter and Cho Chang. I am not a fan of slimy romantic crap. Another thing i liked is that, though they did change a lot, they also were fairly faithful to the book. It all made me very happy. And the fight at the end in the Ministry...Wow, that was cool! I was like "GO DUMBLEDORE!!!" But possibly my favorite thing about the movie was, as you may have guessed from my picture, Luna Lovegood. I don't know if she was just a good actress or if she's the real life Luna Lovegood, but either way she played the part perfectly. She was exactly as i imagined Luna Lovegood, only slightly better looking, so i was quite happy. I am in love with Luna Lovegood/Evanne Lynch. Which works out quite nice as a friend of mine is in Love with Daniel Radcliffe (Harry) so if we each married our movie true loves than it would be kind of cool. Anyway, i think Harry should give up on Ginny, because she's not at all as cool as Luna. But i think in the end it's gonna be Luna and Neville anyway...

Speaking of what i think will happen, i must tell you my theorie's about the 7th book, that because it hasn't come out yet i haven't read, and therefore may only guess at. So i will tell you my guesses, because ever since i got a hold of the 6th book of been dreaming of what will happen in the 7th. But first i must give you a warning. A...dare i say it...A SPOILER WARNING!! I will be talking about things that happened in the 6th book, and actually pretty much every book. So if you don't want to know then stop reading. Okay, ready?

Read at your own risk...

I'll be giving out spoilers you know....

You might weish you didn't know this stuff...

Okay....

You asked for it!

I had a list from Borders of reasons why Snaoe was either friend or foe, and i was going to give a list of my reasons, and come to a very good conclusion. But i lost the list from borders and for some strange reason can't find it online. So i'll just tell you my theories for now, and maybe i'll tell you reasons in a minute. First thing that you all must know...DUMBLEDORE'S NOT DEAD!!! Snape didn't really use Avada Kedavara or whatever, the whole book there was a huge emphasis on non-verbal spells. So why isn't it possible that Snape said one thing but thought another? And look in the book if you have a copy anywhere nearby. Or more to the point if you have both the 4th and the 6th, every time we hear of something being killed with Avada Kedavara it just falls dead (like the spider and Cedric and every other person we've ever heard of being killed by this curse) but in the book it talks about Dumbledore flying back over the battlements. But that didn't happen to anyone else who got hit by this curse. Why would Dumbledore be special, he's human too. But how, you may ask, has snape survived so long among the death eaters and not got caught? He's and excelent Occlumens. He can guard his mind. And what's up with the unbreakable vow at the beginning of the six book? He had to play the part, no wait, i'm seeing my own arguement failing...hmm, this needs more thought. Well i'll read the book soon. Anyway, those are my thoughts i'm sure of. Dumbledore is alive, and Snape id good. But now i am going to joke a little, i will give you a possible ending for the series. a crazy one, and one i don't think likely, and could only happen if Dumbledore really is dead. My thought is this, mid-way through the last book Harry Kill Voldemort, but that's only half the book. But in killing Voldemort Harry snaps and becomes the new dark lord, and with the death eaters having no where to go, some join him, some run, some he kills, some he tortures. He especially has fun toying with Snape. Now Ron, Hermione and worst of all, Ginny realize it is up to them to stop this new dark threat, and realize they must either redeem Harry, or kill him. And so one of those two things happens. Then Ron Marries Hermione and one of them (probably Hermione) becaue Minster of Magic, while the other becomes an Auror or something. Neville and Luna Lovegood get married and both become Aurors. Or for a tottally strange ending i jump into the book and I Marry Luna. Then either Ginny marries Harry, or dies an old maid, mourning the that it had to be her that killed Harry. Now truthfully i don't think any of this will really happen. i just think it would be cool if Harry and Ron faught kind of like Anakian and Obi-Wan. And it would also be cool if i married Luna Lovegood, but the likelyhood of that is the same as any of the rest of the stuff i wrote, except for about Dumbledore not being dead. But i just remember! I left out the juicy bit! How is Dumbledore not dead? It's also a possibility that Snape really did use the killing curse but that Dumbledore had a...drum roll...Horcrux! In the first book we hear that dumbledore is famous for defeating some other dark wizard, someone with a dorky name, like orswald or something. Now does defeat mean...kill? Because killing splits a wizard's soul, now if you were an extremely powerful wizard, and if you had a split soul anyway, why not make a horcrux? And what better for a Horcrux than Fawkes, his Pheonix. A Pheonix can't die, because it will always rise from the ashes, therefore Dumbledore's piece of soul would be quite safe. Now these are all just my thoughts and highly open to debate, and actually i welcome it, please comment your thoughts. Just comment nicer things than the people who comment on my YouTube videos. Anyway, my mom disagrees with me on almost all this stuff so...I'll read the book and see! Well, i wrote a lot, but now i must go take out the trash and daydream about how i could fit in as the Harry Potter character crazy enough to be in love with "Loony" Lovegood. Cya!

P.S. If you get the book, please don't post spoilers from the 7th book on my blog, it would make me annoyed, because i don't like spoilers unless they come from me. So let me read the book. Thanks, Cya!

The weight of responsibility...and a nice walk through town!

Aww, what a pretty picture. That was a fountain i walked past on my way home, it was so cool i just had to take a picture! I should go visit that park sometime. Anyway, this isn't what the blog post is about but a thought just struck me. Hard. In the head. And it's still striking me rather painfully so i'll blog about it in hopes that i will placate it and drive it away. I've finally figured out the secret to taking good pictures. I'm not quite sure what exactly that secret is, but lately the pictures i've taken have looked better and better. So from now on whenever i see something beautiful in this beautiful city in beautiful Estonia i will take a beautiful picture to give you a beautiful desire to come visit me. If you come visit me i can give you a personally guided tour where you will see things (like this beautiful fountain and the beautiful park it's in) that no normal tourist gets to see. Anyway, that was just something i was thinking about. But all that is beside the point. Why was i out today with my camera taking pictures of fountains? Well i had to return/renew/take out some library books because on Saturday the library will close and before i can get there on monday i'll be at camp in Loksa. And though my friend Anneli was able to return a DVD for me last time i forgot i had to return library things i don't want to have to make her do that again. Speaking of which i'm going to go watch a movie with her at the library tommorow. Good fun. Anyway, why am i blogging about being out? Because of...the weight of responsibility!

Sound deep, thoughtful and exciting? It does? Well don't get your hopes up, it's not really. Anyway, it's been a beautiful day so i decided rather than squish into a tram with a bunch of sweaty stinky people i'd just walk through old town. Walking through old town is always fun because i can keep up a running commentary in my head mocking all the tourists around me. Like "Hey, check out Ms. Fashion Statment over there. Nice outfit, but i thought only super heroes wore their underwear outside their clothes..." and other such wonderful things. And also now that Anneli is working at Raekoja Plats it gives me an excuse to drop in and bug her. Now as i walked from Kopli Corps to Raekoja Plats i had five heavey books plus a Bible in my bag. The weight of responsibility! What is the weight of responsibility? Well...it's...umm...keep reading. So after saying hi to Anneli and marveling at her super waitress skills i waltzed down Viru street laughing at all the wierdos, all this time still carrying the heavy books. I decided it was such a nice day i still wouldn't get on a tram so i walked from Viru Keskus to the Library by Stockmann, were i returned my 4 Douglas Adams books and traded them for the 5th Harry Potter book, which is about twice as heavy as all of the Adams' books put together, seeing as how it's a hard cover copy. So then i walked (still carrying a very, VERY heavy bag) through the park where i took that picture until i got home, only to find that Evelin the babysitter was out with both the kids and my keys, leaving me stranded on the dorrstep with my books. Now if you love books as much as i do, and if the weather is this nice then it's no hardship being stuck on the door step. So i waited until some nice blond chick who i didn't know lived in our apartment building let me in, then sat outside our apartment door, reading, while another neighbor i didn't know asked (with geniune concern) why i was stranded. I explained and she left me to my book, and i few minutes later my mom showed up with the key to the apartment and we've been home ever since.

But i'm sure you're wondering, what is this "weight of responsibility"? Is it my bag? Is it Douglas Adams books? Is it fat Harry Potter books? No. What else was in my bag? My mom always complains that my bag is heavy, and that'll i'll hurt myself carrying it. I think not, it just gives me a work out no matter what i do. But why is it always so heavy? I don't always carry library books in there. Why it's so heavy is very simple. The weight of responsibility. My Bible. My Bible is fairly medium size and weight as far as bible's go, but that's still not light. But i like that heavy weight in my bag, banging against my but. My constant reminder of the weight of responsibility i carry. The responsibility to represent Christ in my life, and show the world the way He works in my life. It might be akward and heavy, but that's one of the best parts. It reminds me. And besides that, i'm always armed to the teeth with a Bible in my bag. Anyway, there's another extrodinarily long post to get to and extrodinarily short point. I hope you enjoyed it. But anyway, must be off now. Cya!

Jr. Soldier Camp!

Jr. Soldier Camp was great fun. I just got back...last Friday. Okay, so i'm lazy. But at least i'm blogging! Do you like the picture? I put it up because of all the pictures i took at camp this is by far the cutest. The kids were playing hangman here and apparently this is Linda's thinking face. Or maybe it's Astrid...I'm not sure, they were identical twins. Why do we always attract twins here at The Salvation Army in Estonia? If Anneli had come to camp we would have had 3 pair of twins! But sadly we only had 2 and a half. So sad. Anyway, We loved it. I loved hanging out with all these little kids. The great thing about hanging out with people 10 years younger than you is that you can act 10 years younger! Well, to some extent anyway. But i always act like a kid anyway so...yeah. But i have all sorts of things to tell you about from camp. My favorite camp memories that i will share with you because i am so kind. There was one little girl named Melissa, you can actaully see her squashed in at the far right of the picture, who was the smallest and youngest girl in camp. She was absolutely hilarious. One thing i forgot to mention is that we have a new regional commander here in Estonia who is pretty cool. Though it takes a lot to top an eccentric Brit so...well, she's okay...for a Finn! But anyway, our new Regional commander came to camp to introduce herself to the kids and absolutely cracked me up by practically giving us her whole life story and having it translated into two other languages making it 3 times as long and therefore boring us all out of our skulls. And i was sitting behind her, so i had the lucky position of being able to make funny faces at everyone behind her back. But because i'm so respectful i didn't...at first. But as i was sitting trying to stay awake i reached up to scratch my nose and something quite my eye. And as i swung my head to look, Melissa swung her head. As i flicked my ear...she flicked hers. I crossed my legs...she crossed hers. I made a funny face...you get it. She started copying me. And i started giving her more and more complex things to copy and as she kept copying me perfectly i had to put my hand over my mouth to the laughter that was making my ribs shake and my eyes water. And of course she copied me perfectly. Thankfully Major Muikko (Is that how you spell it?) didn't talk for more than 15 minutes so i was saved from suffocating on supressed laughter. It was excellently cool. Even now i can't help but crack up. It was so funny.

Anyway, that wasn't the only funny thing. We played this one game were we had to put this balloon between our legs and do a relay race without dropping the balloon. The only funny thing was that my team kept popping our balloon! But in the end nobody one because of some disgusting foul play from the other team. Which i won't blog about because it just wasn't nice. Anyway, as i was at camp enjoying all this time with all these cute kids i was wondering something. What changes these cute little girls into evil, soul sucking, murderous, deranged teenage girls? I mean i don't think i've ever met a teenage girl who didn't have evil, soul sucking, murderous and/or deranged qualities. It just seems to come with being a teenage girl. But i came to a conclusion. I'm not sure what this monstrously evil thing is that turns butterflies into fire breathing demon-dragons, but i came to the conclusion that whatever it is should be hunted down and shot. Or if it's some kind of sick(er than normal) vampire with a fetish for girls between 10 and 14 i'll hunt it down myself and shove a grade A angus steak up it nose. Or through it's heart. Whatever. Anyway, that's all for now, i must be off. Cya!


By the way, look down, i wrote two posts in one go! Read the other one too!

Wow, i have a LOT to blog about! (READ ABOUT MY SAT SCORES!!!!)

Well, i got back from Jr. Soldier camp, but for a whole bunch of reasons (including pure laziness) i haven't blogged yet. Wow, i'm pathetic! But at least i'm here now. And best of all i'm here listening to WCYY be streamed to me straight from Portland, Maine! And man am i loving it. Anyway, one reason why i've been even lazier than normal (is that possible?) is because i borrowed the whole Douglas Adams trilogy of 5 from the library and i've been reading it. Because i love Douglas Adams. And anyway, i just recently finished the last book, which had one of the worst anti-climaxes i have ever, every heard of. I mean seriously. But one thing i thought was quite interesting and i just had to blog about was that Arthur Dent had a daughter! Now this tottally was a mind boggling shock to me, but quite an interesting development getting to see (or more realistically read about) Arther Dent struggling with Fatherhood. But through the whole time that we got to know his daughter (who was quite apropriately named "Random") (seriously, that was her name) (no, i'm not joking) anyway...as we got to know his daughter, Random (don't start with me...) I could not hgelp feeling a connection with her. I could easily sympathize with her feelings. Her whole problem in life was the because she was born to the last 2 earthlings known in the existence of that particular universe along the probability axis (read the book if this is confusing) she could never find a place where she "fit", which is a feeling that i have battled with a lot over the last three years. Now i might not travel through time quite as much as Random did, and i might not be the only Earthling around, but, but, but but but but BUT! But, i AM the only American Christian around (that i know) and even in America, among Christians i still don't seem to fit quite right. There a very few plaves that i "fit", but at the moment Tallinn, Estonia with this particular group of friends seems to fit just fine. So i'm happy. But if you want to know what it's like being a missionary kid than read Douglas Adams' "Mostly Harmless" and put yourself in Random's place. I mean, i might not throw rocks quite as much as Random, but i know the feeling.

Anyway, once again i just wrote a whole bunch of stuff that might probably mean nothing to many (or any) of you. But that's what you get for reading my blog. Anyway, in this posts name i promaised to enlighten you as to what my SAT scores were. Well, there's three parts to the SAT scoring. So i'll tell you a third of my score. My favorite score. I got 580 on critical reading! YAY! That's good in case you don't know. That's above average. I'm above average. I'm a genius! Well maybe that's going far. But whatver. My mom got 580 on this part of this SAT too, and she's no idiot so that makes me feel A-okay. Or maybe B-okay. i don't know what the difference is. Anyway. That's all major excitement. One other thing, speaking of my mom and her brilliant scores (therefore also making my score brilliant because it was the same as hers) yesterday was her birthday. And we all had a big fun party at hope house. Quite exciting. But now, i think i must get off. I would like to do a second blog post about camp and put up some pictures from that of all the cute little kids. Well, i'll see. Anyway, must be off until i start the next post. Cya!

Decisions, decisions...URGHH!!

Hello there. I'm sure you're curious about what decisions it is i'm blogging about. And i'm sure you're also wondering what that awesome rock concert poster has to do with it. Well i guess i don't want to leave you in suspense. So i'll tell you about all my decisions that i have to choose from in one quick succesion of too-short sentences. Cool sword/axe necklace at medieval market. Cool "Estonia/Eesti" T-shirt. Cool X-box games and other stuff. Cool rock concert (poster pictured left). Well there are 4 cool things of varying prices that are all tugging rather insistantly on my wallet yelling loudly in my ears to make a decision. This morning in Old Town strolling through the Medieval Market i saw the coolest necklaces. One with a cool sword, one with a cool battle axe. I was instantly filled with desire! "IT MUST BE MINE!!" Screamed a voice rooted deep in the part of me that's still very American. I looked at the price, 75 krooni, like 8 bucks. Well to many people that's nothing. But not to me. I'm extrodinarily poor. I mean i could easily afford several of those necklaces that were so awesomely cool. But i had other things tugging at my gut...After walking out of Old Town, before jumping on the tram, i meandered aimlessly through the handicraft market and noticed that wicked cool shirt that's black and has an Estonian flag and says both Eesti and Estonia on it. Making it so cool and worth money. And it was now on sale, was 200 krooni, now 125. Oooh, i've been wanting that shirt for a while. I felt my wallet being tugged, but once again i walked away. Then i came home and went on the computer and i remembered something else. The midsummer music festival! I'd been talking with my friend Ragne about maybe going to see this together. Urgh. 150 Krooni ticket, but that's almost definitely worth it. Then over it all i remember that i still don't own either a X-box 360, or Halo 2, or many of the other many video game related things i want. And to get everything (or even a portion of) what i want will be very expensive. So i better start saving now before i go back to America in a few months. Decisions! Urgh. I've been wanting some sort of cool Estonia shirt forever....That necklace...well, i can can say no to that, i always wear my cool Salvation Army dogtag anyway...That cool music festival...Hmm, it would probably make me better friends with people i don't know that well, and it would definitely make me more hip to any Estonian teens ("You saw Tanel Padar in concert? Cool!!") but i've always been against spending money on things that are only one time things (like food) when you can spend money on things that will (potentially) give you pleasure for years to come (like books or video games) but this sounds really cool! Urgh! Then there's X-box stuff, i mean potentially, as long as i don't get robbed again, and as long as my X-box doesn't die on me again, any X-box stuff i can keep for years and then either give to my kids, my brother, or sell to nastalgiac wierdos on Ebay (i'm talk far into the future here). So it's like an investment...hmm. And i hadn't even thought about it before, but now that i mentioned books, i've been wanting all that "Ender's Game" Orson Scott Card books! Geeze! Decisions! I just don't know what to spend my money on. Well, anyway, let's just hope i make the right choice. But now i'm off to Junior Soldier camp, which should be good fun despite the fact that i am not a Junior Soldier. So yeah, i won't be blogging for a week, so if your absolutely addicted to my blog then either read some of my old posts or...i dunno, get a life or something. Anyway, Cya!

America....

Hey, i didn't do much interesting today so i won't tell you about that. But i will tell you what i've been thinking about. Today, and basicly since the 4th i've been missing America a little. Only the slightest bit, but still. Everything is so easy in America. And everything tastes so good and fatty. But anyway, i haven't been missing it too much. And it's not really like there's any specific thing that i miss, i just miss being there. I think one thing i miss is just the adventure of traveling. I need to find some adventure in Tallinn. I mean fighting Russian kids is fun, but...well, the Medieval Market ends Sunday. And also i miss everyone speaking in English all the time. Though i'm quite happy that my reputation as a master Estonian speaker has spread to the point that people constantly ask me to translate for my parents. It's quite fun. Anyway, one thing, or actually person, who i've been missing a lot is my Auntie Masha who i had loads of fun with last time in America and who is now moving to one of those wierd "Stan" country's, either that or she's going to visit her friend Stan, i always get confused. Anyway, i haven't been missing her and the rest of America too much though because of the technicalogical beauty that is Skype and E(as in Extra-cool)-Mail. But it's always so funny because she's always praising stuff i do, especially my blog. Which i love because of all the things i do, my blog is one of my favorites to be praised for. But i could fart and she'd proabably say that was cool too so...Anyway. Don't know why i wrote all that. But i mus be off now, i'm tired and out of things to blog about. Cya!

Argh! Under attack!

Here's a picture of me being attacked by my little Russian friend who almost took off my right hand. He was insane! It was great fun though. And i'm still alive so it wasn't so bad. Anyway,this is my final picture, i must be off now. If you want to do this in order than scroll down to the post called "Wow, medieval market...library...wow, what a fun day!" but for now, Cya!

Elizabeth the crazy knightess!

When Peter failed to put a hole in my camera Elizabeth happily took up the job. Chasing my on a wooden horse to do the job! It was quite scary!

Fight!

Being the friendly little dude he is, Peter made a friend today. And of course not only was his friend his size, he was also an equal swordsman. But thw two of them would barely dare to touch each other for fear of hurting each other. Though Peter's friend didn't mind trying to chop of my leg...

Charge!

Here's Peter on his noble steed! This Trojan horse had to be pushed, which just made it that much more fun(for the rider)!!

Peter the warrior!

Here's Peter looking tough with his sword. I think he was planing to put a hole in my camera, good thing i took the picture fast!

Wow, medieval market...library...wow, what a fun day!

I know you are all very envious now because the last few of my posts have been so happy, but i'm sorry to tell you i'm just happy! Life is really good right now! Today started the medieval market in old town, which isn't all that exciting by itself because most of it is just that, a market. And since i don't have loads of cash sticking out of my pockets having a big market in the middle of Raekoja Plats doesn't really help me much. But because it's all "medieval" there's all these people prancing around in clothes that are apparently hundreds of years old, because they look just like what people supposedly wore back then. The other good thing is that, living in a city with a huge medieval fortress in the middle, i'm not the only person who feels we should all walk around armed with a sword. As you can see from that picture on the left there i improved on the traditional knight's armor. I thought it needed sun glasses. Anyway, Peter, Elizabeth and i had loads of fun fighting and going crazy and everything. It was great, this one Russian kid would not leave me alone. And he was like some kind of berserker with that sword, if those had been real swords i wouldn't be writing this post for lack of a right hand! It was great fun fighting someone half my size and still having to put up a good fight. It was great fun. And yesterday we went to the zoo, and i DID write a post about it, but for various annoying reasons you will probably never see it. It wasn't a very good post anyway.

Anyway, another very, VERY, exciting thing happened today. I have finally hunted down the Liivalaia Raamatukogu (library), the one with all the english books! Yay! I was so happy, i went in and asked first in English if they had any books in English, but my lady didn't understand, so i switched to Estonian and she pointed me to the area right behind the desk where i saw 3 or 4 rows of English books! I was like "WOW!!" i was so happy. Then, to make a good thing better, i asked how many books i could borrow and she said unless i paid 200 Krooni deposit i could only take out 10 at a time...only 10!! Wow, ten's enough for me! I was ecstatic to grab 5 great books and check them out. Now my librarian was trying so hard not to laugh, partly because of my shoddy Estonian, and partly because i was so excited about borrowing a few books. But seriously in three years, i haven't been able to go to a library and borrow books. In Tartu the only English books they had sucked. So now i'm here with a wealth of English books that i am highly interested in reading and am very happy. Who cares if people think it's funny. I LOVE BOOKS! Anyway, i'll just keep singing "Having fun isn't hard, when you've got a library card..." for now, because i have some reading to do! But anyway, i am now going to put up the good pictures from today and give them captions, so...enjoy reading it all! Cya!

What a day!

Some times i just have really good days. Today was one of them. Church in the morning, afternoon with friends. Me and my friends Anelli and Evelin went out and partied all over town. Walking here there and everywhere. It was wonderful. As you can see from the picture, we even visited the beach. But seeing as how none of us had bathing suits none of us went swimming. Though Anneli went for a little walk in the water. It was wonderful. I can't wait, we're planning to go swimming tommorow. Anyway, as you can see, the weather is ideal, so i just thought i'd tell you this and make you all squirm with jealousy. I mean seriously, what could be better. Beautiful weather, beautiful beaches, beautiful 18 year old best friends...everything's beautiful! Anyway, i don't have much to blog about now so Cya!
