This will be the journal of a Finnish young adult female human being. If you expected the journal of a vampire queen and are disappointed... think of it like this: who knows that I am not a vampire pretending to be a human.
I will not reveal my age or other personal measurements here. ninja
Okays... on to day one.
My knee hurts. It just started hurting two days ago. I have no idea why. My knees do that to me sometimes. Also I seem to have a cold. That sucks. >.<
I'm trying to lose weight. Today is the sixth day of my diet. I've lost 1,7 kilos (3,7 pounds) in that time. It's not even a strict diet. Just eating healthy food and less of it, and more exercise.
Today mom and I went to the Kanavajuhlat. It's a kind of open air festival, with some market stalls and such. Mom went to listen to a concert of Christian music performed by two tenor singers. I went to have a look at the market stalls. I bough some lottery tickets but I didn't win anything. They gave me a pen anyways. I also bought a little cat statue made of transparent glass. It's rather cute. I'm going to give it to my mom on her birthday, which is in August. And I bought for myself a ring with a purple stone and two clear stones on both sides of it. It was cheap so I think the stones are glass. It looks nice anyways. Then I fell into temptation. I came to the food stalls. redface They sold crepes. I had to buy a portion with jam and whipped cream. It was sinfully tasty. I had some tea with it. Then I looked at some ridiculously overpriced 'artistic' jewelry made of pieces of wood and plastic beads. Then I went to see mom in the concert audience. It had started raining. I listened for a while. The singers were good. I was getting cold, because I was only dressed in a dress and blouse. So I went inside to the cafe and had some more tea. There was a talkative Finnish man with his Thai girlfriend in the same table. They seemed like a happy couple. They spoke Thai to each other. Kudos to him for learning her language, that must be a big help in the relationship.
We came home and had lunch. Egg sauce and the first new potatoes from mom's garden. Also some strawberries for dessert, also from her garden. Mom grows all sorts of things. We've got apple trees, plum trees, cherry trees, raspberry bushes... and lots of vegetables. And two rows of corn that mom insists on calling a cornfield. xd
I haven't always lived with my mom. I had my own place for a while, now I'm trying to find someone to rent it to. I own the apartment, or the bank owns most of it, because I have debt.
