Post numero dos

So the temperature is rising here, it is not longer -10°C (14°F) like when I got here last week, it has risen all the way to 9 (48°F) but it still drops to the negatives at night. Big big difference if you consider that my last days in Monterrey were sunny and with temperatures around 30°C(86°F), so im pretty much wearing pants and jackets not like back home where im always in shorts and t-shirts, big chance for me i swear...

This past days I have been walking around the city, just going around trying to find the places I will need to go to while I live here. (just the basic, supermarkets, the mall, restaurants and of course the licor store ...which is government owned here)

On my way there some kids were like Moi moi (which is like Hello) which kinda freaked me out cus I didn't quite get it, that it was meant for me... now I know how exchange students feel in Mexico when people just go out of their way to talk to them cus they are different. lol

The dorm is a cool place to live in, there is a lot of ppl from all over but mostly europeans, or more like all europeans except for this one dude from the US who is half Chileno and now me from Mexico. I seem very loud next to them but I think I actually am.... if only they could see us in groups like back home, then they would really run out the door....lol

Party-wise can't complain the place i went to this last weekend was great, yet I was surprised by the music cus it went from Lady Gaga, Daft Punk and Kanye West to Michael Jackson and finnish rap. Another thing that I found out that was a pleasant surprise is that the gym is pretty much empty all the time and I have 24 hour access which beats my old school gym for sure.

There is an event here that the business students are organizing, the PROM, I'm excited about that and can't wait to see how they do this kind party here... it'll be fun, and of course I'll post all the pictures here one day after Prom on April 23... I think there is also a Metro Station concert in Helsinki soon , heard it on the radio.. at least I think thats what I heard, I mean its in finnish so I cannot really be sure.. K later for now , ill make sure I keep this interesting....

ok now en español........

Bueno pues la temperatura aqui es completamente diferente a la de Monterrey, cuando me fui de Mty estabamos a 30 grados y cuando llegue aqui a Pori estabamos como a -10 grados.. asi q si fue un gran cambio. Alla siempre usaba shorts y camisetas aca ni de relajo podria porque se me congelaria todo.. pues algo que es muy diferente para mi aqui es el tener que caminar tanto (no pienso subirme a una bici hasta que se derrita el hielo!), he estado yendo al centro casi todos los dias porque ahi esta todo lo chilo, los malls, los restaurants y el "deposito"por asi decirlo, aca solo hay una tienda de alcohol y es propiedad del gobierno.

Pues la gente es super buena onda y amigable, aunque muchas veces penosa.... unos niños en la calle empezaron a saludarme asi de la nada gritando me MOI MOI osea Hola, supongo q soy el primer latino que ven en su vida asi que ha de haber sido como ver a Mickey Mouse para ellos .. jajaja...

Apenas empeze a salir aca y pues los lugares estan bien, la musica esta chila pero de repente tambien ponen algo ochentero estilo Michael Jackson asi q medio saca de onda. Weno ya que estoy con lo de salir y eso, pues aca va a haber una fiesta que se llama PROM, muy a la gringa (perdonen ustedes mis amigos del norte, saben que lo digo con cariño) asi que estoy esperando con ansias a ver que es lo q se hace aca en fiestas grandes, es el 22 de abril asi q esperen fotos un dia despues para ver tooodooo lo que pasa en una fiesta universitaria en Finlandia....

weno bye desde Finlandia, coman tacos por mi.....
