Turning the page

Hello blog! I've been away for long, sorry about that. There have been some events and I will write about those soon. Let me start from recent events as it's breaking point of my life.
I have 2 reasons to turn new page in my life. One is emotional and as this chapter is closing, no point of talking about that. Another is related with future. As a matter of fact I'm applying for Outdoor master studies abroad. This is my nr1 priority right now and I really hope to get in, somehow.
I worked hard to get all papers etc in order though. Yesterday I came from Tallinn where I spent 2 days. I was really busy. I had no real time to sleep or eat. Eg I got 13h (4+3+6) of sleep in 3 nights combined. I had little food (well, I got to admit I had no real appetite too), eg one day with only 3 truffles and 1 mueslicandy. That was in a day where I went in Kalev Spa water center first time and in some moments I felt myself quite out of energy. Speaking of Kalev Spa experience - we went with a friend as we had a lot of catching up to do we only visited saunas, pipes and small pools. 1,5h passed quickly. But it seems to be decent place.
Back in home I had a tiny headache and a bit blood came from nose. I'm pretty sure it's was caused by weather conditions though. As I was strangely asked "why is your face so dimpled" and I weighted myself and... I was 4kg lighter then I expected. :D And that was after a lot of water and some gingerbreads. Anyway, I had no time to rest or something - a small breakfast and back to car. Some buildings in countryside needed needed help - their roofs were under thick snow, around 60cm to 1m. After 3 hours of work I was finally able to go get some rest.
Btw, I'm not complaining! I feel to "back in action". I've had those big rushing periods before and the pressure is enjoyable in a way. With the hard emotional impact in side it stresses and makes everything harder, for sure, but I also hope it hardens me.
The start of 2011 hits me hard and painfully, and not everything goes as good as hoped. But there have been some luck and fun too. Eg in one morning I started to drive away from friends place I couldn't find my glasses. After I dropped the friend to work and said I might come over later to check the apartment, I just in case drove back to parking lot where the car had stayed. I remembered that I stumbled to one pile of snow last night and maybe I had my glasses in my pocket and it fell out. And so it was! Before I was able to exit the car I already saw something black under the snow. And it was my box of glasses! It was right in the middle of parking slot so it's pretty nice luck no car wanted this place at that night.
I've also got to do some snowtubing although those hills in Mõedaku aren't so good.
About future: right now I should be Helsinki AutoExpo and VM Motorsport Show. But I'm not going. If you have to know the reason then it's related with reasons why I'm emotionally devastated.
I have to skip the Winter Xdream. Financial reasons.
I will take a TOEFL test exactly in 3 weeks. It's very expensive but I have to do it for my master degree candidacy.
So much about this week, current situation and briefly about future. I do a small break and return to give an overview of last months.
