23

Tomorrow I'll be 23. I think it's a nice number, for some reasons the uneven numbers appeal to me. 17 sounded nice, 19 as well and 21 definitely has a charm to it. I find that 23 has this as well, even though it starts sounding more mature. At a family party some weekends ago one of my younger cousins wanted to know whether or not my sister and I were "adults". We found that a hilarious comment. I guess my life has become more adult-like since I started to work, but only because it brings more responsibility than being a student. I am the youngest at my job and I wouldn't say I am being treated like that, but I do feel it in some way. Mainly because I giggle more and find it in a way funny when I make mistakes. :P I also don't have to care too much about the money I make, as I can still spend it on nice stuff without feeling guilty for not saving for a new washing machine or so.

I don't have any big plans for tomorrow anyway. It's a Sunday to begin with and I really don't like organising big things for myself. :P Parties are great, but not if you are the one responsible for it I feel, as it creates too much pressure in a way. Receiving many gifts is fun though.... :P

Winter is really coming now and I love it! This week was the first in which I could wear my new winter coat and such an event is always nice. ;) I don't expect it will snow here any time soon, but hearing from other people that it snowed in their country is already great. I am all the time urging cold weather to stay in Turku, as I really intend to bring my skates there and have a massive snow ball fight. :) Sledging would be cool too. It sucks that alpine skiing is so expensive though, as I would love to do that again. I am of course still a total beginner when it comes to that, but my two times on such ski's weren't so dreadful either. It does remain scary to fall when racing down a steep mountain, so I would need some extra nerves to become better at it I suppose. ;)

Didn't I look like a professional? :P
