Life Goes On

Helloooo :)

Me with the quite large trophy :)
I know that I have not written for a while, but nothing significant has really happened since my last post. School is great and sometimes hard, but not impossible.
So last weekend i had my first synchronized swimming competitions here in Taiwan and I had an AWSOME time! It was the Taiwan's Synchronized Swimming President Cup 2012, the second competition this year. There were many solos that performed and only one combo, but they actually did very well. The average level here is lower than Finland and we are lacking coaches, but some of the swimmers really stand out with their skills. I ended up winning a trophy... Yes, I think that it was a little exaggerated, but I am happy.
I should improve my figures and flexibility though, to stay good and be better. Also I will be getting an all new solo music and choreography from Russia, and I am very excited about that. Just by the way, if you are interested and speak Finnish, here is a link to the Suomen Uimaliitto website: http://www.uimaliitto.fi/liitto/uutiset/tara-turkki-ui-kultaa-taitouinticupissa-taipeissa/

Love you guys! :)


At school, we have a cool event coming up. It is a dinner/dance where everyone dress nicely and have lots of fun. Especially the girls get excited with all the hair, dresses and makeup. It is next month and I can't wait to see everyone dressed nicely and to have fun dancing with my friends.
Also Christmas is coming! The weird thing is, that it is so warm here, that it doesn't feel like it at all! In Finland it has already been snowing, but not here! Never! So I at least, have not gotten that Christmas feeling yet. :P
