I've thought of blogging for almost two weeks now. I think every day that I should do it, but "just do it" doesn't work that easily.
Well, anyway, it's gonna be a long post now.
Some weeks ago there was the folklore festival where I volunteered. I was at the information centre of the folk. Our group was really cool and our boss, who was only a year older than me ran around in the folk area and did everything. So we called him running-Janno. But it was cool. I listened to a lot of Estonian folk music as the stage was right in front of me and saw also foreing groups. I really liked Turkish group because the guys from this group warned me from horny Turkish guys. Haha. Then some people came to ask from us whether we are also selling underpants with folk logo on it. Yikes. I saw a two-necked guitar with 24 strings on it. Sander Szavo who owned it, improvised his performance a lot and talked about the guitar. I was truly amazed by it. As it was very hot during the whole festival, we cooled ourselves down in the fountain that was next to our tent.
After the folk ended (which was pity, I would have wanted it to last longer) I went to Maarja village the next day. I found out there that the summer camp that was supposed to be held in my home was cancelled because of the horrible heat. So we made a new timetable where we put all kinds of activities- hiking in the forest, orienteering with radio stations, swimming, ride with the local boat Lonni, water war and of course a visit to Rõuge. I also had my birthday during the village camp. It was really cool- at twelwe at night we were in the sauna with some people and they wished me a happy birthday very early. Then I was woken up by Reeda and Lauris early in the morning. During the breakfast the whole village sang happy birthday to me, I had a cake for dinner and the village gave me also a cake for dinner with candles on it. Later at night we had a co-inhabitants party at the boat bridge and almost everybody came. I got a scarf as a present from volunteers and a lot of candies and wine and a bracelet and a fridgemagnet from Austria. I really liked that day.
I had a party with my relatives also on the end of that week. It was funny. My relatives and family acts really funny when they are drunk.... Hmm. I'm not going to talk about myself...
But anyway... Now I'm again in the village. Working. I helped to make sour cucumbers and made juice for the first time. And it's berry time! So it means a lot of work during the night because right now you can't do anything during the day. It's too damn hot. And it will continue to be this way. Oh la la.
I've also decided that I will do my EVS next year and will hope to start it next August or the ending of July. I already sent some applications to some organizations. Let's see how it goes. I will send some more applications when I have time. So I have to hold my thumbs right now. I have to see if some organizations will reply. Now it's almost all about waiting.....
Sorry, I didn't make this post a very long one. I'm just not used to being in the computer much and it's hot and everything... So if you wanna know more about my life, then I still have a cellphone... :)
Hugs!
