Perjantai 🇫🇮 - Freitag 🇦🇹

After another shite nite, I decided to go out. I took Abby for her morning walk, had some cinnamon pancakes for breakfast, had a talk with Ági, drank a much-needed coffee, and off I went to town. More precisely, I went to Budaörs to buy a cap and a new Bialetti moka pot - the smallest one that only prepares a half portion of coffee. With all that goods in my trunk, I drove home with a wide grin on my face. When I got home, I prepared lunch, nothing fancy, just some rice, tuna, and tomato with cucumber and dill. When I finished devouring the nosh, I grabbed a coffee and took Abby for her afternoon walk. After returning home, I buckled down to my homework and managed to finish it. Well done me! It wasn’t an easy task in terms of forcing myself to finish it, but I made it eventually. I felt so proud of myself that I allowed my wee body to rest, so I nodded off for ten minutes. Am I generous or what?

Anyway, the weather is finally great. It was sunny, without clouds, no rain or strong wind, and the highest temperature was +24°C. What an unexpected yet expected change! I could go out in my beloved TEVA sandals, a short, a T-shirt, and a summer cap. They say the weather will improve tomorrow. What is more, a high-level alert has been issued for UV radiation for tomorrow. I’m not going anywhere, but if I do, I’ll wear something that covers my whole body. But the good weather also brought some unwanted guests; the mozzies and other flying and creepy-crawling bugs are here. They attacked us while walking with Abby, and the loud buzzing in my ears made it even worse. When are they going to eliminate them?! I must get a mozzie-repellent spray ASAP.

Well, this is it for today, so bye all…

Tiistai 🇫🇮 Þriðjudagur 🇮🇸

My day was alright. I rearranged the shelves in the basement, which took me two hours to complete. I could have spent more time rearranging, but I had to deal with my homework before the class this afternoon. I had to read a story and summarise its content, write about the characters, and describe my impression. Even though the weather forecast predicts warmer days, the presence of autumn is palpable. The nights are much colder than a week ago, and the morning walks with Abby are faster due to the chilly temperature. I quite like the lower temperature and enjoy taking cold showers in the evenings because they refresh my body. However, I miss my summer sandals, shorts, and T-shirts. Walking Abby without having to don my jacket and put on several other layers was much easier. The English class with Charlette was fantastic. The sixty minutes flew by like a bullet train. I feel lucky to learn from her. After the lesson, I prepared my high tea cocoa pancakes. I love pancakes. When I devoure...

Keskiviikko 🇫🇮

We watched the last episode of Bordertown. Now the series is over and won't be available on Netflix anymore. Moreover, they don't plan to shoot another season yet, so chances are we were lucky to have watched the complete three seasons. Anyway, "Vive le Finnish-Hungarian friendship and Uralic languages!" 🇫🇮🇭🇺 After Ági left for the university, I sat down to study. I received four tasks yesterday from Charlette, and I finished the open cloze text and made some notes on the vocabulary part of the lesson. Now ask me anything about "wear out", "hanker for", "wind up", "drop in on", drop in", "cloak", "spectre", "orb", and "mace". Writing a report, explaining the gist of a video to a B1 level student, and writing a letter to an editor of a magazine are left to be completed. When I finished studying, I made some lunch: the menu was pita-bread with Greek yoghurt and veggies - tomato, spr...

Keskiviikko 🇫🇮 Miðvikudagur 🇮🇸

After a not-so-good night's sleep - I had a terrible dream; a lion wanted to chase me down and eat me - I woke up like a log. Little did I know about how chilly the outside temperature was when I took Abby for her morning walk. Both of us hurried back home. It took me two hours to create the lesson plan before my dentist's appointment, but I did it eventually. Since my temporary bridge had fallen off yesterday, I went to the dentist without it. Anyway, I'll have a new bridge next Wednesday if things pan out. I had a lesson with Ági's student this afternoon. I enjoyed the class and hope the students were also content with it. But the afternoon traffic is lethal. On the way home, there were numerous collisions, and I even saw two cars in the ditch. Crazy drivers should stay indoors. The weather is changing. It's still not typical of October, but the first signs of autumn are visible. The foliage is not as fresh green as it used to be during summer, and the nights are ...
