Um...hello
Yeah, I haven't been here in a while, eh?

I've just been enjoying my Christmas Vacation (politically correct, Winter Vacation). I have off this week too so now I'm in Helsinki and I'm going to do a wee bit of shopping, and then this afternoon I'm going to Jyväskylä because my Grandma's 60th birthday party is on Saturday. (Just think, she's NOW turning 60, but that's because she had my dad when she was 17) AND this Saturday is also my cousin/goddaughter's first birthday! She's such a cutie! And she's learning to walk too! I'm so proud of her! *glee*

This Aasian Tsunami catastrophy is just horrible. The news said that tourists from 52 countries were in the area when the tsunami hit. Roughly about a hundred Finns are still missing, and it is doubtful that they will be found. Thousands of Swedes are missing too. It's just horrible to think of all that were lost. I sort of knew someone that died there. My uncle's godparent's daughter and her three children died there, her husband was the only one that survived. (I've never met them) I can't even imagine about the children that went there with their parents and came back without them. (The news said that 21 Finnish kids were orphaned.) I can't even imagine being there and losing someone dear to me.

Ok, that's enough of my rants...I'll write more about my vacation soon!

Take Care,

~Minako ^_^
