Winter break!!!

..ok, almost winter break. Only.. 40 minutes to go now =)

I'm in music history, last period on a a Friday. My teacher (who by the way is blind) stryggled like crazy to make the computer system work, and has just given up in order to walk downsatirs (this could take a while) to get a class list to take the roll. I wonder how he's going to react when he finds out we're only 13 of about 25 students present. Pretty good for last period on a Friday, to be honest.

Ok, tomorrow is the first day of the holidays. Winter break is one of the holidays that exist simply because someone figured out it would be nice to have holidays in the middle of February. We just have a week off school, that's all. Quite nice, if you ask me.

Now I'm going to try make sense of what the teacher is saying for the remaining.. 25 minutes. Wish me luck =)

... and from German class

This is horrible, I really should stop writing stuff in class and actually doing school work instead. Oh well...

Wednesdays are usually quite depressing, starting with two periods of German. Today I got up at quarter to 6, travelled for over an hour, almost fell asleep in the car (it was too cold!) and finally woke up when having a ginormous cup of tea at school before the bell went, just to find out that the German teacher isn' t here today. This guy from the administration came to take the roll, but I've only been here for a month, so my name wasn't on the list. I could have slept until 8! ....

Two days ago, I was going to call a friend of mine, but the phone wasn't working. We emailed the er.. phone people?, and they might be able to fix it today, but maybe over the weekend. Plus yesterday morning I woke up to my mum standing in the door of my room saying "no point in taking a shower, there's no hot water in the house". So in the middle of the night, the hot water tank had stopped working. My dad managed to fiw the problem, as always, and gave my the full explination of how a hot water tank workes. Kinda cool, actually =)

So yeah, life is normal. It's still winter, although it's getting pretty light outside now, which makes life a lot easier. We still have minus degrees, so the weather is stable and nice, we don't get soaking wet when going outside. Not that I spend that much time outside at the moment, this is my first day at school without crutches after I injured my knee almost 4 weeks ago. (Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid....) Well, at least I get free taxi to school every day (government policy). Next week my part of the country has winter break, one week off school for no reason in particular. I'm really looking forward to sleeping in a bit.

Oh yeah, this is my normal everyday school life:
5.45 Start getting up, having breakfast, having a shower, etc.
6.45 Drive to the ferry with my mum
6.55 Arrive at the ferry, find that the line of cars is short enough for us to get on the ferry
7.25 The ferry departs
7.45 Ferry arrives in town
7.55 Arrive at school, all alone, sit around and wait for others, have a cup of tea
8.30 Bell goes
8.33 Moving to class, a bit late
---school stuff, like sitting around, being bored, having another cup of tea---
at some point, like 3.40 Last bell goes, wait for stupid taxi to arriv(e knee injury=free transport to school)
4.20 Ferry departs
4.40 Ferry arrives on Averøy, my Island, get onto bus
4.55 Home!
approx. 7 Collapsing on the sofa watching tv far into the night...

Can't wait to get a flat in town!!!!! (I've found one, can move in at Easter! Yay!)
