IT IS HOT outside! Actually it seems it is hotter in my room than outside.. prolly cause of my monitor and my PC. It's been 35 Celsius /95 Fahrenheits the last couple of days and I am definitely not made for these temperatures. Anyway I returned from my last USA visit and I gotta admit that Singapore Airlines really rocks.. Besides that I have been working a lot and finally started my studies again.. which also is the reason why I cancelled my planned Suomi visit as i got a bad conscience and stayed home to read for my exam which will come up beginning of August. So far I read Rip van Winkle, Death of a Salesman, Streetcar named Desire, Catcher in the Rye and The Great Gatsby within the last 4 days. I knew some of these works but as it has been such a long time ... well it was better to reread em. My life is fine all in all.. of course there still are some downs as it cannot go up all the time but all in all it still is lots better than let's say 6 months ago. I AM missing Suomi though.. Last longer visit there was in February and I just went there for 2 nights for the Batbday in April. I was hoping to go to Helsinki in a few days for a few days but atm it's hard to find a host as it seems everyone is gone for Juhannus. Sigh I would have liked to see the midnight sun again.. but oh well.. I can't get everything. Atm Im on sick leave anyway:( Got some nasty bacteria infection and didn't go to a doc till 1,5 weeks after it started.. so now Im on antibiotics and they already helped. Saturday will be the big big Birthday party of my airline and I'm kinda looking forward to that.. Well let's see what novel will be in for tomorrow.. I guess The Scarlet Letter. Blah I want to go to Helsinki for 2 nights next week *whine*. Well at least I will be in Zurich next weekend if things go well. A friend of mine is a Calvinist priest and he is living in a 100 year old priests house... not as good as Helsinki or a mökki near Oulu but oh well...
