I really can't think of anything interesting to write about. We've been making lots of smoothies in the blender. Strawberries, and bananas, and blue berries, and black berries. Yum yum!
University is being difficult. Lots of work constantly. I'm basically doing an entire week's worth of school work in 2 or 3 days. Last week I thought I did really poorly on my paper. I was so tired that I wasn't even paying attention much to the lecture. The professor noticed and sent me an email asking what was wrong. It was that obvious. I ended up doing the best I've ever done with the paper though. Got a B. I have no idea how since I was stressed, annoyed, and even left out one of the sources. I'm happy though.
I had my first Swedish test last Thursday. I think I did really poorly. Although I don't know why my classmates were getting upset. They can't do anything to us if we keep failing. The only thing that matters is the final test at the end of the term. Tomorrow I think I'm going to try to take my course information in to the people at SFI that can help me figure out what I would have studied in the Swedish system. Then I'll have some idea what my Swedish classes are. One never knows when it will be useful.
Despite the stress from school, being constantly tired, and everything else. I'm actually in quite a good mood. Although someone needs to remind me why I think doing 20 hours of Swedish (+ homework) on top of my full load university course is a good idea... The apartment is a disaster because David doesn't have much more free time than I do with teaching and everything. Despite everything though, I'm happy. I still have some time for friends, even if I don't have time to go out and party. I have an occasional hour or two to relax, even if I have to neglect studies to take those hours. Life is generally good. Even if the alarm is going off in less than 8 hours. (I can then ignore it and go back to bed... or get up and write my paper that is due Tuesday since I know I'll be very tired after Swedish tomorrow evening.)
