Uke 9 og litt 10

Week 10. wow time goes by super fast here! except when I'm in pointless classes in school... such as today where I spent 3 class periods of sosiologi planning a way to sneak out of the class. Nevertheless, that didnt happen, only long bathroom breaks, and then I come back, say something to the teacher in norwegian and she says 'you have great norwegian' but in norwegian of course, and then I go back to reading norwegian childrens books. It becomes very boring. I always have the breaks to look forward to though, where I get to see my friends, well mostly Tristan, I won't lie. So whats a 'normal' day for me?
Wake up at 6:30, use massive amounts of time on my hair, and lots of hairspray...(hair is a very important thing here in norway, very BIG, literally, but its fun)
7:15 Breakfast(frukost) with my family, except for pappa who already has gone to catch the train to oslo for work.
7:40 Kjører til skolen (drive to school) at least part way, then we walk the rest of the way
8:25-15:30 sometimes 13:45- kjeder meg (I'm bored during this time, known as school) I sit and read norwegian books, and try to participate in discussions, but they talk to fast sometimes. I can understand it all, just not talk about the topics.
After school- gjøre lekser (do homework), spise middag (eat dinner), være sammen med venner (be together with my friends), se noen ting på tv (watch something on tv), norsk ting (do norwegian things)
On saturday Anders came over and we watched the 40 year old virgin (in norwegian jomfru) and that movie is so much funnier after drinking tons of soda and eating junk food and dancing to nysnc and backstreet boys, and crazy norwegian bands. classic marissa, to say the least. kjempe morsomt!
Well today after school I'm going to Trines to film a video on human rights for Media class. All day wednesday were editing these videos. Thursday we have a day off of school to work in the community to earn money for palestine. I really like that about norwegian schools. We have random whole days to focus on a project, instead of 45 minutes a day on one subject and then move on... and we have days where we dont have to even come to school, and they say, go find somewhere to work to raise money for a suffering country. I think its really smart. And I find that I learn a lot more from days like these than sitting in a class room, having the same thing every day. Variety makes it more memorable and productive.
Well, I have to go, I have to get my scarf back from Tristan by the end of the day...(he really enjoys taking my clothing... especially scarves and jackets, and wearing them for extended periods of time in public. silly boy)
Miss everyone, but Im having the time of my life =)
