Anju Goes to Stockholm

October 16, 2004

Well, this week is like a break for the kids from school. I dunno why, now, but whatever! I don't need a reason not to go to school. But my family took me to Stockholm from the 13-15.We took a like cruise ship...but its wasn't very cruise like because there was just water to see. The boat was cool though. Then there's Stockholm, It was pretty cool! Its HUGE. and there are so many more people than in Tampere. Reminded me of home. The sun was shining, and everthing! And the shopin ensued! I actually didn't buy very much, but it was fun anyway. Old and historical, pretty much everything America isn't. but what was really cool was, they had an American food store! I went in expecting to see things that the Swedish think we eat, cause in Finland they have this like sauce that's called American sauce, i dunno what it is, but its not American, because we have no sauce!! Anyway, was i totally surprised to see every piece of American junk food i have missed!! I wanted to buy one of everything, but i just bought some peanut butter and a mountain dew, because I miss those the most. Another cool thing is they celebrate halloween. The Finnish don't, because they don't see why the would, I try and explain there is no reason why, you just do!! Maybe there was one, but I dont know it. There was also a subway there, i rather liked it because i only subways ive ever seen are the ones in new york...and i hate those.  Um, that's pretty much it! Oh, its my dads birthday tomorrow, so happy birthday daddy! And it was my boyfriends birthday Thursday, so happy belated to him! Im broke from their gifts though. Haha oh well, i love them.

Welp thats all for now!
