Life is stressful!

Well, my Swedish teacher has informed me that I need to take the Swedish test in March rather than July. I was going to wait, but she wants me taking it now. So I've got 2 weeks to get ready for the Final test in SFI. I'm also going to try and enroll myself in Svenska som Andraspråk Grund. They offer a FLEX course in Uppsala where we don't have regular classtimes, you meet up when you want, and work at the pace you want. I think I can handle this while writing my thesis at the same time. The classes will also be at KomVux in centrum rather than outside of town. This means I won't need the expensive bus card anymore. I'm going to buy it for one more month, hopefully this will keep me off of my bike while it is still so cold.

I've got a rather large research paper due March 18th that I've been frantically working on between Swedish classes.

Peter has abandoned Sweden for Ecuador for the next 3 weeks. It's going to be quiet around here.

The book sale (bok Rea) started on Tuesday. David and I spent a few hours wandering around town buying books. I'm sure we spent more money than we should have... but sometimes books are worth it! I bought three children's books by Richard Scarry. They are books I read when I was a child, but now in Swedish. Even David thinks that they are cute. We also bought a dictionary and a synonym book. For some reason we didn't have either. And 99kr each is affordable.

Tonight I'm going over to Tim's place for some socializing.

Oh, and as usual, I've got Swedish class today. I'm just going 3 days a week right now, Monday, Wednesday, Thursday. I'm still not sure how the heck I'm going to get my paper done AND pass this SFI test. ICK!
