Hey everyone!
Today has been a really good day. The morning started off great and I was happily surprised by the price charts of STEEM! Another cool thing was that the place where I am an intern at for the next three months had planned an independence day lunch for all the workers. We got to eat great food and relax and afterwards we got to leave work early.

For those of you that didn't know Finland is celebrating their independence day tomorrow and it's a special one because it's the 100th anniversary. 🎈🎈
It will be a big celebration here in Finland but I've also heard that a lot of other countries will celebrate with us too!
The list is actually still growing with participants and most of them are going to "illuminate" an object in Finlands colors which of course are blue and white.
Here is a list I found of the countries that are going to participate and it also lists the object which will be used.
I think it would be really cool to see for example Niagara Falls glowing blue and white but I guess I will see pictures tomorrow so that will have to do!
I myself will celebrate by eating and drinking Finnish things all day and just feeling proud! I will also watch a Finnish movie called "Tuntematon Sotilas"(transl. The Unknown Soldier) which is a movie about the Continuation War between Finland and the Soviet Union from the viewpoint of Finnish soldiers.
A remake of this movie was made this year but I haven't seen it yet. I usually don't like remakes but from what I've heard this is a good one. The novel that the movies are based on has been translated into 20 different languages and if you ever come across a copy then I definitely think you should check it out!
Thank you for reading everyone and I hope you've had a good Monday too! Keep Steemin 😄
And of course, Happy Birthday Finland!
Peace out, Strawhat
