Juhlien teemana oli tarkoitus olla Suomi ja suomalaisuus, olisin halunnut katsoa suomalaisen elokuvan ja syödä suomalaista ruokaa, mutta se ei onnistunut. Ruokana oli kyllä joulutorttuja (joista puolet oli tehty vaalealla luumulla ja puolet vadelmalla, koska en saanut mistään tummaa luumua) ja suomalaista pannukakkua, jonka teki toinen suomalainen vaihtari, Mira, mutta siihen se suomalaisuus sitten jäikin. Me katsottiin illalla amerikkalainen jouluelokuva Elf ja mä tilasin sinne pitsaa. Mulla oli kuitenkin hauskaa, vaikka ihmisiä tuli paljon enemmän mitä kutsuin - muun muassa Bradley, Coryn, Audrey, Andy, Makenna, Tora, Weston ja Aerin oli paikalla.
Uhmmm I feel kind of bad that I didn't say anything about Finland's Independence Day - mostly because I read a couple of blog posts by other Finnish exchange students about how they spent their 6th of December in the States. My purpose wasn't exactly to forget it, I even had a small party, I was feeling super patriotic that day, and I even told my teachers about it.
The theme of the party was supposed to be Finland and I would've liked to watch a Finnish movie and eat Finnish food but that didn't work out too well. We did have a couple of Finnish foods like joulutorttu (I had to use light plum and rasperry instead of dark plum because I couldn't find it anywhere) and Finnish pancake, which was made by the other Finnish exchange student in Colville, but that's pretty much it. We watched an American Christmas movie Elf and I ordered some pizza. I did have a fun time, even though a lot more people showed up then I expected - Bradley, Coryn, Audrey, Andy, Makenna, Tora, Weston, and Aering among many others were there.
