The beauty of Messenger + a bday out of ordinary

Good evening,

I understood the previous day that it is very likely that I know now more about my friends and how they are doing in Finland than when I am staying in Espoo.
The reason for that is our beloved MSN Messenger and its' little brother Skype.

When I get home from my lectures/a night out/BOMmen class/shopping, I fickle with my keys(there are way too many of them), open the door to my room and throw my self over my laptop, turn it on(I hear the ah! so familiar sound of it starting to hurrrrrrr...) and there I am, signing myself to messenger, knowing that the next hours will just disappear.

The same pattern repeats itself more or less everyday. Please, don't get me wrong, I do have a real social life and activities. It is just that sitting infront of your laptop is such an easy solution.
If there is somebody who has a similar kind of addiction or problem,please, don't hesitate to contact me. I would love to try to restrict our dependency together:)

Ok, enough about messenger....concerning this week, I have been quite sick, especially in the beginning of the week. Strangely enough, I didn't manage to go to my football pracice on Monday, but I did go to Saras birthday in the evening=)
The funniest thing ever was the fact, that her real bday dinner was on Sunday, but she had told us Monday. So there we were, me, Axel and Peter, knocking on her door, with a bday card and bottles of wine, she opens it and the expression on her face!
She had really told us Monday and that's why two other guys showed up later as well. We ended up drinking and going to Rumba(what would a Monday night be without International Student Night!?)Oh well, as a true spontanious Italian Sara handled it really well and gave us flowers to express her regret for telling us the wrong day.

Otherwise, I had my exam on Friday about EU Politics and government. The questions concerned topics that I didn't know that much about(screw Laeken declaration) but I should pass. I seeked some comfort from Mango immediately after I left the exam hall:)
On Friday night, Marja-Maija came from Utrecht to visit me. After walking around in Groningen by night, our stop was Sally O'Briens...2 weeks without a cider, man, it was about time to get the taste of the sweet drink.
Yesterday(on Saturday) we walked around in the market and bought some delicious cherrytomatoes. We did also some other shopping and later in the night, we went clubbing to Shadrak with Satu, Axel and Peter. Finally, we hit the bed at 6 am, and woke up at 1pm, so we were pretty exchausted. A nice Sunday brunch :) me like.

It is getting really late, and I feel like sleeping, so I can be a good student (and sportswoman) tomorrow.
Have a nice week everyone!
See you online!

Yours,
Anna
