Today was a free day, meaning that there was no school. All of us, who were very tired from the week, slept in late and finally got up at around 12 pm. We had a very big and yummy brunch together and really just spent most of the day relaxing. Luulia and her school theatre group is leaving the next day on a two day trip to Turku for a theatre festival where they will perform in a competition. Most of the day, we hung around and I helped her pack. At around four, Luulia went to her singing lesson. An hour later, we went to pick her up and then headed over to our friend, Petra's house. Luulia and the girls from her show were going to have a sleepover so the next morning they could leave early to Turku together. My plan was to stay until around 10 to hang out with them.
To say the least, we had a blast! The four of us, I discovered, are all crazy and absolutely hyper, especially if you give us candy. I was able to try some really amazing Finnish, British, and Australian candies. Then, we all made pizza together which was a big mess but really yummy. Then, we were all hyped up on sugar so we had a really funny and really weird dance party. All pooped out, we decided we'd play Super Smash Bros. and Mario Kart and you can just imagine how that went! I was so glad that we were the only ones in the house since our shouts and singing was so, so loud! As 10pm neared by, we put away the games and started to relax as we shared some ice cream. I got picked up soon after and went home. Almost immediately, I fell asleep as I was very exhausted by then.
