Delay.

There's a reason I haven't updated in awhile but anyway, I've been busy. No need for too many details. I finally submitted my application to Aalto University so I'm excited to let them do all the work now while I eagerly wait for their reply, and fill out my Hanken and Jyväskylä applications - only 2 unis with a total of 2 programs left to apply to!

The reason I'm updating now is to vent my frustration about how hard it is to find a Finnish course in Finland. If you speak Finnish, no problem, just browse the web! If you're a permanent citizen, no problem, MOL will hook you up. If you have a Finnish Siamese twin who can translate all the webpages for you, no problem - you're all set to find the information you need. Do you see where I'm going with this?
Please, just for fun, try finding out what this means: http://www.aikuislukio.tampere.fi/Mamukurssit.pdf [without Google translate.]
I did actually look through that long enough [15 seconds] to figure out that their introductory courses were in the fall. So I missed out. Now there are only 10 other webpages just like that...

So in order to ease my worries, I've mostly just decided to keep attending twice-a-week Työväenopisto course and do some independent learning. Not 100% sure how this is gonna play out but I have to start somewhere...

Going to Päivi's for dinner tonight!
