Spring is finally here

This week started practically on tuesday, becouse monday was a holiday. We had a short lesson by Ilkka. It was about search engine optimisation (SEO) and search engine marketing (SEM). We got more information about digital tools for analysing and marketing websites and how to make timetables for posts. We were handling Google Analytics, Google Adwords, Hootsuite.com and Ilkka also showed us what is Mouseflow.com. I´m not going to explain what those does, becouse everyone who reads my blog knows them :) But i learnt how to analyse who visit my website, when, from where and so on. And got tools how to make Google Adds and how that works. Hootsuite.com was very fashinating and i´m definately going to try that if i work somewhere where i need information about page viewers. That was the lesson what i thought this course would be like. Very good subjects.

We also had a visiting lecturer. She was 32 years old Aida Hubanic (Facebook, LinkedIn). She moved to Finland with her family after or during the surrounding of Sarajevo in the early 1990´s. She told her story from those days till today. She has made it though the rough time to settle in the new country and luckily she was young, so she learned the language and now she´s doing her masters degree in Laurea. She´s had great working places and a son. I thinks she´s very inspiring. I think the main reason that she was in our lesson was that she was in a winning team of Laurea game jam, they also won first place in Barcelona game fair with their game called Hungry cells. She told us about the game jam weekend in Laurea Leppävaara and the competition in Barcelona.

After school our team Digi-ESAT used our price from Nobot Oy competition. We bought food and drinks and had a "brunch." Thank you Nobot Oy. They also asked our original video this week so maybe they are using it. :) Here you can see our brunch feelings:

Second "lesson" was on friday. We were visiting wellness fair at PCA Scala premises in Vallila. Well I got some s**t taste in my mouth about that, becouse the owner asked us there as visitors but he made working tasks for us. Well thanks to Ilkka, who saved the situation somehow :) Go Ilkka!! It was little embarrasing becouse students were confused and well honestly pissed off there. Then Mika Järvinen was talking about trusting people in his talk and said that "don´t trust anyone." My first thought was that yes "siten makaa, miten petaa." I´m never going to work with him.

One of my old classmates was CEO of the other arranger, Papu Wellness. Good for him, he was successful and does well in life, it´s always good to know people are doing great.

But week was good. holiday, working, littlebit school, lots of schoolwork, more days off. This week has learnt me how not to manage with co-operators. If you have will and you work for things you want, you will reach them. I was Laurea missionarist working and caught a shoplifter, well i saw people stealing and went to tell to the staff. And i know that i cant talk about bike parts in swedish and that it´shamefull :) Old finlands-swedish man told me that. On saturday we made a roadtrip and visited my old friend in Kotka. In Kotka we opened a terrace season in Kotka harbour in a lovely sunshine.
 

I definately love warm, sunny spring days <3
