Swedish Learning

I finally finished reading "Pelle Swanslös" last night. It took me about 3 nights worth of work, but I finished it. I've also started listening to webradio P1 again. It gets me more used to hearing the Swedish. Even if I don't try to listen, it's nice to just be used to the sound of the words. Every little bit helps!

I've been trying to think of other ways to improve my swedish... So far I have this list.
Talk to my boyfriend on skype
Type on icq to him to improve my writing
Listen to webradio
Try and read Aftonbladet a bit everyday
Occasionally try to make sense of DN
Review my notes from Swedish classes last year
Try and write a somewhat long email to my bf once a week in Swedish

These things don't take up so much time each, but the little things should add up nicely. If I work hard enough I'll hopefully be able to get through SFI without spending too much time. Time spent in SFI classes is NOT spent with my bf or working or trying to find a job. Not so good!

I'll bring my dictionary to the lake this weekend and hopefully between studying and asking fishermen silly questions I'll have time to sit down and write out a nice long email. I'll bring my laptop too so that I can type some stuff up. If I do type something up in Swedish that is appropriate for all audiences, I'll post it here as well. This will make a nice record of how I'm doing I hope! I probably won't stick with it that well, but starting out motivated is always good!
