No more lectures!

So, last week was the final week of lectures here in HK, and possibly the last lecture before my graduation..! :O Now I'm free until the exams start on 6th of May. I was actually supposed to be in Finland now for a week to spend some quality time with my love ones but due to the volcano case in Iceland, my plans were ruined and I may have to start studying for the exams. Not sure if that's a good thing or not. :D

It seems like the life in HK is coming to its end as everyone is counting the days they have left in HK. But for me it seems like the life in HK will continue after this semester! Today I got a phone call from a friend who is working for a Finnish company telling me that they most likely have an internship position for me!! Nothing is confirmed yet, but it looks good and I'm looking forward to see what they have to offer me. :) Again I was reminded about how important and useful the networks are. Kiitos Karen!

Time flies

Only one week of lectures left for this semester! And for me it means 3 days of school and few final exams in May. :D The time here in HK has passed by so quickly. Although the school will be over in few weeks, I still have two months time to be here. So I should manage to do some more trips around Asia. ;)

The trip to Korea was great! I ate most of the time.. :D Seoul was a BIG city, but quite dirty and it was always a mission to find a trashcan from the street. And of course kimchi everyday. Check the photos of the trip:

Haha, last Sunday I was biking for the first time in HK for 4 hours... It was interesting, as I had only slept for 4 or 5 hours after the high table dinner after party and the biking route was crowded as it was Sunday; all the kids, elders, beginners etc. It was for a while quite annoying to bike coz you had to slow down every now and then coz you couldn't pass all the people you wanted to and then it was also dangerous as you never knew if some kid would suddenly stop/turn right/left and so on. I actually almost crushed down to a little girl. XD

Tonite I'm going to have a wine&cheese nite with Sophie in the Halls and see if we manage to get out of the Halls to some clubs.. :D We bought 2 bottles of red and 2 bottles of white (of course we won't drink them all in one nite) for like 16eur and then some brie and other cheese with crackers and grapes. The nite will be wonderful. ;)
