Thread: Hei.

Hei! Nimeni on Agata Mä olen Puolasta, mutta mä rakastan Suomea. Mä oon kahdeksantoista vuotta vanha ja mä asun Elblągissa, kaupunki Pohjois-Puolassa. Mä rakastan Metalmusikki!

...and unfortunately that's the moment where my Finnish ends.

In English - my name is Agata. I'm from Poland, but I love Finland. I'm 18 years old and I'm living in Elbląg, city in northern Poland. I love metal music!

What else can I add... I fell in love with Finland when I was 15 years old, totally unaware of it. I've heard song with lyrics in South Saami language and it was one of the most beautiful languages I've ever heard. After I heard some Finnish bands, and of course Finnish language - and I totally fell in love. Started to have more interest in Finland, looking at pics, reading about it etc. I also started to learn Finnish, you can see effect above. As I know myself, it's full of mistakes but nvm. I'm learning only with using internet sites, so don't expect perfect Finnish from me... Finnish books are really impossible to get in Poland.

I plan to move to Finland in near future, propably to Tampere, but I still don't know. I'll come to study.

So, I hope I'll spend some nice time here, and maybe meet someone new.

moi!
im planning to move finland too,for study:P
try polytechnics!

Polytechnics... I'll think about it what you'll study, if I can ask?

for polytechnics,go to www.admissions.fi
im planning to study business-information technology in oulu polytechnic,damn that city is SOOO cool

ya?

In fact I have some time to think about it, I'll have to stay in my country for at least 3 years, I have to pass maturity exam but I thought about something related to music, for example ethnomusicology or general ethnology, but in fact I dunno. Maybe I'll choose something else, but first I have to learn enough Finnish. For now I chose Tampere as my propably new home, so I'll propably go to Tampereen yliopisto... but as I said - I still have 3 years for thinking :/ If I only could go there without waiting... eh.

arent they doing that maturity exam after high school?
and you dont need to learn finnish to go polytechnics,they have lots of degree programmes in english
and i dont think you can learn enough finnish to go to finnish universities/polytechnics,you need to pass an exam for it too:P

if you want music,SIBELIUS ACADEMY!>>>>>>this way
best music school in the world

Hei, welcome thank you for joining finlandlive i hope you enjoy it here

ahahha omg it seems ure fucked up badly
do you need to take maturity exam to go to polytechnics?
because they only want my high school diploma:P

its weird if they want maturity exam from an eu citizen

Myrica - guess what I'll answer http://blog.pharmalive.com/wp-conten...8/06/o_rly.jpg

Well, yeah, maybe they won't need maturity exam, but that means that I have to stay few years more anyway. But this also has it's advantages - I have some time to meet people there, to learn language, to learn about culture, thanks to that I won't be so shocked when I'll move there.

In fact I could move even in September (I found online teaching school) but I don't think I'll find job without high school exam. And I don't think I'd like spending nights on the streets. xD
