Default First of May

How do you celebrate the first of May?

Here in Finland we wear fancy dresses and meet our friends. Students and young people get wasted, fight, and nail each other like the end of the world would be coming. First of May (or as we call it, vappu) is the most important day of the year to celebrate if you are a student.

We have this kind of culture here that we celebrate the day before, and the actual first of May is just a bank holiday. This works with all of our holidays.

Personally I'm sitting at home because I have tonsillitis. At least I have a bottle of whiskey. Tomorrow I'm watching how Finland beats USA in World Ice Hockey Championships.

If you aren't already doing this, you can't say you're stuck. Plateauing doesn't really exist, if you aren't improving it means you haven't put in the effort needed to improve, or your effort has been misapplied. It's more of a problem at really high levels, but never totally concrete.

There's apparently some tradition where you go to random peoples' houses, leave a basket of goodies on their doorstep, and ding dong ditch them.

So nothing.

Nothing here in the UK, but the first Monday of May is a bank holiday and I get off work, as is the last Monday in May. Nothing special about those days though, just days off.
