Everybody please forgets everything I ever said about the level of school in Sweden (Except for what I said about maths, it's still easy). It depends so much from school to school. In my previous school, I had more breaks than lessons, not anything to study at all. And now I don't even have enough time for lunch, and how much they study is just INSANE! What that means to me...well very very very much for me to do. A few hours of studying every day, for 2 weeks. Just for one test! Unfortunately this is not the only test. It is normal to read 40-60 pages for one test-even more sometimes. Translating the textes takes the longest time. Today I had my first longer conversations in swedish. I am so proud :)
School is very tiring. But still I am glad I changed. It will get easier, the better my swedish gets.
But when I get home, I just want to sleep. So many impressions, being surrounded by a foreign language 24/7, (even in my sleep :P ), new people anywhere. Today I was at a lecture in the theatre. It was about politics. But I didn't understand much. Leaving the house at 7:30 and coming back at 21:30 is not something I'd like to do every day.
I'm exhausted and I just want to sleep, but I want to tell you about last weekend. We were at Sälen, a swedish holiday resort and stayed in a stuga (summer-/winterhouse). Many people go skiing there iin winter. We went hiking, because there is no snow yet of course. It was super calming and nice to spend much time with the family. The house was so cozy. I could read a million bookd in that place. And drink even more cups of tea.
The nature was the most beautiful thing that I have seen in Sweden. Here are some pictures:
On sunday my swedish morbror (uncle) turned 40 and it was on our way home. We visited them in their house, ate together. I almost met the whole family. Everybody is so adorable. I like them very much. I didn't take any photots on the birthday.
