Billy S.

Today I had a special swedish lesson. First, the location was special. The room where Anna, Line and I had to go was in the top of the library tower of the campus. It was more like a small office, with 5 chairs, on table and a big tv with equipment. Second, the tv-equipment was special. A camera, which you can control with remote control, was standing at the television looking in our direction while sitting at the table. On the table lied a microphone waiting for us to talk. And third, Ella has not been at Sundsvall, but in Härnösand. She was sitting in a class room with a similar equipment as we had. But it was not my lesson. Not because of the equipment. First I were not able to head the words Ella said, because the modification of her voice through the television was unfamiliar to me. But even later, when I understood the words, I did not know what they meant. Terrible. Just 3 weeks out of Sweden and I feel like starting from Zero again. I've been really disappointed about myself. The girls were better and I would have been lost without them. I felt like at school during the english lessons of the last years, when I was glad that the girls were so good at the language and therefore the teacher did not ask to much questions to me. I've been incompetent. The best thing comes: if we understood Ella right she wants us to write an exam next week. I don't know if I want to do this. I planned to write it at summer... To skip or not to skip, that is the question. We will see.
The rest of the day I prepared some applications for home, so I can send them tomorrow to Germany. After that I should be able this time to concentrate on the studys without bureaucatic disturbance. Everything seems to go fine; except my swedish skill.

I will survive

Wow. I did it! I survived surströmming! At least it tastes better than it smells, but that's not difficult. I don't need that taste again in my life. Bäh.... But from the beginning: they day started with practicing for the surströmming-party. My group trained a pantomimic performance. Every group had to present their results from their surströmming-investigation. The first group presented a Talk-Show, the second was my own group, the third had a very funny surströming-commercial performance, the fourth has covered the beautiful song " Vem vet " (engl.: Who knows) to " Vem äter " (engl.: Who eats) and the last made a TV-Show. It was a great fun. After the introduction we were seperated into groups again to prepare the party. I decided to help the entertainmentgroup. We exercised a song, almost one hour. After that, Nicola and i decided to make a few scetches as serving couple. Because of this we went back to the hostel to change our dress, but when we returne...

Fourth day at Härnösand

This was used to be our free day. Somehow the sunday passed by quicker than the days before. After the party at night i left already at 11 o'clock i walked to the universitiy for internet. But when i arrived, the internet was down. I have waited for 2 hours, but it didn't come back. So i had to walk 15 minutes back to the hostel without having done anything usefull. When i arrived i heard the internet was up again. Arg, why didn' stay in bed before?! After my second visit at the u niversity (internet was realy online), it was afternoon and Jana, Klara, Katerina, Denis and i decided to walk to the east coast of the island to see the open sea. On our way we met Phil who joined our trip. We walked about an our until we arrived at a small village "Gånsvik" at the east coast. We climbed on several rocks. The landscape was great. After four hours at all we were back at the hostel. Nothing more happend and i was realy tired from walking so went to bed early again.
