June 19: In the Bag

A couple bracelets I got at the Midnight Sun Festival

( the days )

Speaking of the festival, I saw at least three people I knew (not counting the regular shopkeepers lol). I will always remember going to the festival the year I moved here and not knowing anyone..I felt sad and left out! I usually do see people I know there, and I'll always appreciate it because of that..that first year was rough! We had lunch with someone mom used to work with that we bumped into, and I managed to only get two books at that dangerous store with all those polar books haha. The guy invited me down to the basement again, but it had to be after 3, when his relief was supposed to arrive. Mom didn't want to since she wanted to get home, and I'm definitely not going down there by myself..one of these days!! The festival is a great time to people watch too..like I saw one guy with a huge snake on his shoulders! I wonder what the snake thought of all the people :P

Today's trivia: The teeth of lobsters are in their stomachs. The stomach is located a very short distance from the mouth, and the food is actually chewed in the stomach between three grinding surfaces that look like molar surfaces, called the "gastric mill"
