Little Christmas(Pikkujoulu)





Finns light up the darkest period of the year by organising pre-christmas –parties. Pikkujoulu-season starts around November. And I enjoyed one of these parties.

We(Jan, Miguel, Benny, Dave, Irina and me) went to this party with big expectations. I bought small Christmas present- chocolate in Santa Claus form and made greeting card. I hope that person who received my present from Santa Calus hands was happy, because it was from heart. But I received from Santa Claus Christmas Chocolate calendar. So now from 1. december I will have new activity- to open window of calendar each day . But task is not so easy, numbers are not in order, you need to search. So this will be new expierence for me.

I really liked to taste Finnish Pulla(mildly-sweet Finnish dessert bread). I don't remember how many pullas I ate at this evening, but lot. Soooooo delicious. We tried traditional Finnish hot christmas drink-(Christmas Glögi). Glögi is made of hot juice or red wine and spiced with cinnamon, ginger, clove, raisins and almonds. We had Glögi without alchocol, so we spiced it with cinemon liqueur.

And again- surprise, surprise same DJ as in Stammtisches. So we were dancing in rhythm of new "Christmas music"- even Benny Bennasy seems is Christmas music? So we had some robot dances. Dave is "awesome" (Dave`s keayword- he uses this word so often like my my keyword "oh my Gosh") in this dance style.

And of course we had "modern" Santa Claus in jeans. Santa was very famous as object with whom people wanted to be photographed. Poor Santa :)

Last stammtisch



A little bit sad moment that it was last, but it was nice that there were lot of people. Before stammtish-me, Irina, Miguel and russian girl Masha had pre party with vodka and cider. Masha really showed how to drink vodka, but me and Irina were surprised about her drinking way. Now you can see how real russians drink. So fast shot. After photo session with Jyvaskyla thing, we were ready to go to party. Music was like always-seems dj does not want to change his habits. But any way, we had fun like always with that crap music. So I and Irina decided to have crazy dances-what looked quite interesting.
After stammtish we had quite interesting meeting with people in elevator. There were 2 persons-guy and girl. They were siting in elevetor on the chair and eating candies and offered us too. Quite strange situation. And we asked how long time they are sitting there and how many people they met. They said that we were only second group. Maybe it was some interesting experiment who knows.

Day which turned from bad to fantastic


Day started not very nice. My friend Jurate from Lithuania had accident bike accident. She crashed with car. That good that Jurate did not had serious injures. She was more shocked. But evening of night turned to good side. Jan, Miguel, Jurate and me went to pizzeria Maria. Very good place, one of my favourite pizzerias here in Jyvaskyla. Cheap, delicious and big pizzas. Njammmmm.
So after then we went to Hemingwey bar. Nice place were to chat with friends in antique atmosphere-interiour is fantastic. This place offer to paly games for free like-Scrabble, UNo, who want to be millionaire, Alias and many other. But unfortunately many games are in Finnish language. So we took again one of our favourite games "Scrabble". In picture me and Jan thinking about how to make words in game Scrabble. Some of our comapny become incredible hungre so we moved to one place "Hesburger" And there I become queen of hesburger:))))
Then we moved to Jazz bar-where brit pop happening was. And acidentally I met there another latvian girl-Liene with her friend Nina. World is small. Band was great and atmosphere too. So new place where to go. Despite there were some too drunk people-like one polish guy who spoke with us in Russian language. Then I started to regret that i understand russian language-drunk people can say incredible things.
But last song of band was great "Coldplay" Fix you......................
