MADI'S PICTURES STOLEN BY YOUR'S TRULY

These are some pictures I'm lifting from Madi's blog http://madeline-touringroundtheworld.blogspot.com/ which everyone needs to go and see. Wether you speak German or not. Madeline strongly suggests that you all should study up on it. They are a little of here and there. And more landscape pictures you can see on her page, mom.

Madi and Joli in front of "that building I can't pronounce" in Paris

All of us in front of that building again

This isn't really the eiffel tower, it's a fake

The Saturday we spent with Saraa

Saraa's family's sana, They cooked little wieners on the stove inside. 

The three of us leaving for Tallinn, too too early

Tallinn, I tour guided Joli and Madi through the city. Genghis Kahn lived here

Joli pushing me underneath some towers

Inside the greatest coffee shop ever. We had a hard time leaving this place

ready to eat, ma!

Madi's uber traditional Estonian food. Looks American to me.

The river here before it has become completely frozen. This is obviously an older picture.

We had a great dinner tonight, homemade 3..4..5 course meal. My stomach still needs to recover. I'll post pictures of this later. So good! Note: Please stop asking me when I'm coming home, I dont want to think about it. Too soon. 

SNOT FREEZES AT THIS TEMPERATURE

A few things have been going on, LIKE, the weather continuously drops in degrees. It was -17 yesterday! In celsius. gotchaa. I cut Joli's hair, Madeline cut hers in Helsinki, and Helena is getting hers done this week. Tis the season to change your do's girls. I have a very busy last few weeks ahead, and it's going so by so fast I cant keep up. Please, stop asking me when i'll come home, it's making me sad. 

Frozen river I walk by every day, I threw rocks on it to see if it would break the ice. It didnt, I guess it's safe to run on then.

My boots are disappearing...

I cut Joli's hair! She actually let me

tapered. I was doing okay until I had to clean up her hair. gross

I'll try to snap a few more pictures that are worth posting, so I'm not updating my blog too sporadically. I'll get some of the landscape, since I'm sure you all are just dying to see it. Hint: It's a lot of white.

SNOW DAYS

Here are just some picture uploads from my camera phone, so they are a bit pixelated or something. I have less than a month left, whaaa. Joli and Madeline and I have been hanging out non stop, and we like it that way. 

My Friday night

Joli and Madi looking super fly 

Yellow snow

Look Aunt Laura, I'm wearing your boots!

Joli walking home with me from school

NEW HURR AND OTHER THINGS

Cut my hair again, bangs are crooked as always. I also was in the print building/room from 11am to 12am today. Reminds me of home. I"ll post pictures of that later.

It has also snowed around 5 inches or more. Joli and I had a snow ball fight, and I totally dominated. But, it's beside the fact that she's never even seen snow before, and I can't really accept that as her excuse. Just kidding. I wuv you Jo!

AND ON A LAST NOTE. SCHOOL HAS ONE MONTH LEFT. WHAAAAT?!

I'm not really messy

This is what the Saimaa University expects our studio space to look like.

This is what lila's studio space looks like. And it's not even showing the paint on the walls. 

I am waiting to get in big trouble for this, but my argument is... But it's painting!? how can you not be messy. Come on

Estonia, Round Two

Madeline, Joli and I took a trip to Estonia this weekend. It was actually relaxing, woooa. I had a great time, drank a little, ate really good meals, visited some medieval ruins. And went to an open air museum. I wish we were still there enjoying the weekend. 40>days left to be here. That is very strange.

In the coolest coffee shop ever. We met an American Man from Connecticut. 

I call this place Grandma's living room bar. It was sweeeet

Riding the horsies

Showing joli how horses really like to be ridden

Traveling Companions

Mighty Windmill at the Open Air Museum

As we were wondering around the city Saturday night, we also happened to walk into the middle of a Russian Catholic Orthodox Mass. That was cool. No pictures were allowed, obviously. 

TOTAL TOURIST

I rode to Russia today on my bicycle. True story.
