Woohoo, 4 day weekend! The teachers have a bunch of conferences and stuff tomorrow and the next day, so no school. Nice.

That's awesome! I always loved those random long weekends ^-^ No obligations to your family like on the holidays (though those are also wonderful), just a few extra days to relax. Enjoy it!

...
I was once caught scribbling on the (wooden graffiti-covered) desktop in the physics lab, and told to pass one recess sanding it clean again. It seems that the teacher didn't expect me to show up with power tools and a grinding wheel, rather than plain sand paper ...
;D Nothing succeeds like excess. ;D

I just realized we know exactly where they're from - their family line comes from Mikkeli, Etelä-Savo! Of course chances are that in Y0 they weren't "native" to the area but as the national dress rules go, you only need a family member connection to be allowed a certain area dress. One detail though, if you're going to put the Hotakainen in national dress it probably should be the same area dress for all of them.

Etelä-Savo dress for men and women.
Larger image of the man's dress.
This one shows the woman's dress a bit better, plus the backside of the man's dress without the coat.
Woman's dress on the mannequin on left side.

EDITing to add: Tuuri is young and (likely) unmarried, so while she can wear the white cap on her head she can also go without it, or opt for a red silk ribbon (the ribbon is long and hangs halfway down the back).

I just want to say you are a joy and a wonder when it comes to this sort of thing. <3

I made a (probably temporary) portfolio website today so I have something to link to on resumés! ...I mean, I didn't send in any job applications yet, but I think I get some adult points, right? :tentative smile:

Yes, absolutely -- that's a big step!  10 Adult Points for you!  (15 points if you feel like sharing it, maybe on Amity's careers thread...)

I'm obligated not to share it because of my Real Name and Real Contact Info on it - but I'll take 10!
