Suden Aika Hi Christina, of course your post is ok! True, we haven't been really active here lately, but don't worry, we've all just been really busy with our lives.
This concert is a part of our project of Finnish folk psalms project that we have had in the past few years. That is why we have had mostly church concerts lately. Next year we will focus mainly on our own music again.
Halloween - as a sort of a carnival - isn't really a Finnish tradition, though people have started celebrating it here, too, in the past few decades. But we'll enjoy it in the Finnish way, by remembering our loved ones that have passed away smile emoticon
Good luck with your studies!

Christina Ann Joanna Barrett Thank you for the lovely response.. I dunno if I struggle in English because for my mom it is a 2nd language.I only speak English and am comfortable around Hispanic.
I like to talk sometimes, and not sure if this is pertinent but I actually used to hear voices and my body felt magically affected.. so I watched a lot on ghosts, "monsters," aliens, which are believed to also have talked to old cultures, like Egypt. Actually, the voices I loved so much stopped after I was unable to catch up and function in Music History. It was like a revelation of messages, like that I was not supposed to die and would resurrect, with proof.. So, that is how Halloween is big to me, tho I hadn't thought of it that way until now. It's an opportunity to dress up and knock on everyone's door. My mom is coming with me part of the time. She used to bring our dead dog. I bought Halloween music last year but don't have money this year. I heard some Finnish playing and it was good, a popular haunted song. Same with a song in Swedish. Your group is very good, tho..
My mom told me that in her culture there is a big black man that will take children who are bad away. They also celebrate New Year with food and I think something for children. I used to live where Christmas was not much celebrated. The entire year was carnival, tho, it seemed. I didn't like it until I met people from the city and we moved on. It's sad I am 29 and still live with my parents. Their health is declining with age. I try to be independent, but people here are very different and I feel like I’m still in grade school.
I keep a blog and try to get good at it to help with hopefully something like film acting someday, even if I don’t make it to the big screen cuz I’m so old, too, for that, here now. I am going to college online this time not as many classes. I really want an AA in General Studies. I am worried someday I will have to work or that I need to scrape my way up. I chose not to work, tho I don’t have to. We might even lose the house, tho. The sooner the better. + they have some things I like, like a certificate in Early Childhood. It would be valuable. I actually also just cut my hair, bangs and short to my ears. I am gonna dye it. I want to work with children in the movies and on TV.
You know, I have been trying to attend Sibelius Academy at Helsinki because they accept English speakers. However, I don’t have money to fly there to audition/for an entrance examination. I did wanna relocate to Europe/Norse countries and find a guy to start a family with. I just haven’t found that person. Anyway, I love folk music and was trying for that 1st, but I’d have to fly to audition. They didn’t say if I could do opera, but I don’t like it anymore as much, like with ballet and “just classical” music. My favorite music had been lately folk music arranged into classical music. Like, everyone knows here in music, Appalachian Springs. My dad’s family is from there. The mountains there seem like a big deal to me cuz I never lived where there are mountains tho I always lived on the water.
If you have time, now, and are interested, here’s some samples of me doing music:

For Halloween, I was thinking of getting this gypsy costume, which reminded me of you. Instead, I’m gonna be a generic empress with a crown. The funny thing is I wanted to chose another name, first and middle. All I thought of was Gypsy and found AInsley. My cousin’s name is Ashley. So, Gypsy AInsley. I wonder if I should add that to my name or something. I can’t imagine being called that, tho.
Thanks so much for talking with me. Not many people here. A lotta people like what you post, and sometimes there are comments here to read. You seem like a nice group. A lotta times on Twitter, like every time I talk to a girl like me from up north I find my account locked. Enjoy some of the best of your years, I hope.
I know I talk a lot, but I just do that. It’s not really a lot for me. I blog every day.
Well, have a good time at the ceremony of Baptism.
