Have you ever felt like your life is paused? Like there is this enormous rusted pause button in your head and your life, that no matter what you try or do it never goes down and switches to play? That's exactly how I've felt this entire summer, which seems to have no end at all though the leaves are already turning yellow.. I just feel that uni and my moving is a lifetime away and I still haven't quite realised that I actually am moving to Milan... I mean I don't even speak Italian, and I've been there once?! Plus my friends have been making fun of the fact that I can't eat pasta or potato or rice and I am moving to Italy... BUT I know I'd have regretted the choice of not accepting my uni place there, and hey at least I'll have a thick skin in three years time?
Anyways, what comes to here and now, I am in Porvoo, South of Finland until Wednesday (going to Milan for a week to look for a shared apartment and a room for myself with my parents!). This summer has been non-stop travelling for me and I really am getting enough of living out of my suitcase. Just can't wait for October and to be able to call some place a home.
Yesterday the shops were open till late (10 pm.. which is the normal time for Singapore for shops to close so I'm finding it kinda hard 'cos the shops seem to close so early here) at the old part of Porvoo, so we went and walked around and visited some of the small stores which btw should try and have a bit better air con, it was boiling hot inside! Might have been also because of the people though.. made me feel actually at home 'cos of the crowd! I hate the fact that I can't really buy any house decor stuff, except for textiles, from here since they'd all get broken anyways... But the good part is that I know exactly what I want to buy now, and I won't waste money on nonsense.
