It's the penultimate day of the first month of the year. I don't hold any special sentiments for it (seeing as I'm still in my pyjamas on my couch, blogging and forcing myself to work - it's just so hard when it's raining outside and I'd rather be cuddled in my bed sleeping or reading a book) except that it means there's only 5 days more until our flight to Helsinki!
I've bought pretty much all the essentials and I should be packing soon. Really kind of excited about that, too. Haha.
I had been in a post-exam mind set the past week (you know, when your brain just completely shuts off after the exams, refusing to take in anymore information and it essentially means productivity is down) so this week I shall be finishing up as much work as I can. (Gas down, as many of my classmates would say). I feel like all I think about these days is my dissertation and it's absolutely dreary, but what can I do? It'll only last till April, and then I can move on to worrying about final exams and placements.
Ah, but tedious academic work aside, I have also been tracking the weather in Pori. Oh my--! So many negatives. Hahahaha! It's intimidating and exciting and I can't wait to see snow! We'll be arriving in Helsinki on Saturday night and the temperature forecast for that day ranges between -13ºC to -19ºC. The warm clothes I'll be bringing shall be put to the test.
