It is time to relax!

What's up homeboys and -girls :) I finished my last exams for the fall term and I have to say that I had most hectic two week period ever. 4 papers and 2 presentations in one week is lots of work for me. But everything went okay and my grades are better than 9 weeks ago. I am proud that a forest guy from Joensuu got 97,5 points (100 is the max) from a presentation and beat the native English speakers 100-0. When you write 15 papers in 10 weeks and take 5 presentations you have to become better. My language skills and writing skills are much better now than a year ago. I know that my teammates think differently but who cares :D Sometimes this is the worst place to be but you won't learn language in Finland and that is a hard fact!

I know that people in Finland think that I am so lucky and I am sunbathing every day. If you want to change places with me lets do so :) Come here and see the reality, 3 week pre-season, school and training sessions every day (2 hours). I haven't seen sun for ages. Moving to Florida doesn't mean a free holiday to paradise. Now I think that I have earned a little holiday. Thanksgiving break started yesterday and school continues on December 2nd. I will fly back to Finland on 11th so time goes fast.

Our season still goes on but my season might be over. We had a playoff game against Embry-Riddle on Saturday and my groin stopped my game after first half. I have two days to recover because our next game is on Friday against Warner University. It doesn't look good :( Win from that game would take us to the National Tournament. We are now ranked as 23rd in nation. My 2008-2009 season is already one year long. My body needs little rest but of course we try to go as far as we can. Next possibility to achieve something is on Friday!
