Helloooo everybody

Well I was able to rest for a week, because my university has a one week break in the middle of the semester. It was nice and restful I managed to see more of Tampere. The days are becoming shorter as it becomes dark now at about 4:45pm now, which is about time I had to class awesome...October 23rd was a big day for the city, because they unveiled the lights that hang over the main street Hameenkatu. They seem to be more like Christmas decorations, but I guess they do this every year. The mayor of Tampere was there to present it and there was a large crowd of people. I swear I will put up pictures of the lights as soon as i get them on my computer. Also I finally shaved my head...Not bald of course and not too short, but the shortest I have ever done. I'm taking baby steps here. My Cuban friend Carlos was my barber and he did a mighty fine job. This weekend is going to be big, and not just cause its Halloween, but because I'm heading out to Munich. I leave Friday morning to Helsinki, then fly out at like 1:15 to Munich. I get to meet up with Sean for the first time and we get to spend Halloween together. I'm pretty excited just writing about it, but I can't wait to actually get there. I'm starting to plan what we should see, but of course I can write a detailed itinerary when I get back, with pictures of course. But I will be coming back Sunday morning, then I wanted to hang around Helsinki for a little bit before I go back because I haven't really seen the town, just a glimpse. Since I will be in Munich this weekend I will be missing my first league game that I'm playing with some Finnish guys, plus some other international students. I think 2 others actually and guy from Italy and then one from France. That should be fun once I'm actually in town to play of course.

So now everyone knows what I'm doing you probably won't hear from me until I get back, so Happy Halloween everyone and go Ducks!
