Ensiferum and Moonsorrow are way better


Anyway, the swedish being hideous for most finns is partly due to teachers also. In my whole life I've had one swedish teacher that was fun, and that one single course wasn't very long. During that I actually learned things, but when an old, wrinkled woman walks to the front of the class and starts blabbering about how she used to love swedish and how wonderful Stockholm is, this all in swedish of course, not a word of finnish no, that is out of question, it gets really awkward and really boring really quickly.
