There are two kinds of people - Greeks, and everyone else who wish they were Greek.

Today was another wonderful day at Kungsängsgymnaset, I can almost say it properly! Today our class took the national English test and I got to take it too! I think it was one of the few test that I have taken and both enjoyed and laughed at. It was very fun to take the English test and think, is this how fluent Spanish speakers feel if they took my Spanish tests that I freak out about. It was also very funny because it was all British English and in the audio all of the voices had British accents. Also I learned two new words today: lorry, a truck, and Torry a conservative member of the British parliament. The test took up the whole morning so we did not have our usual two Wednesday morning classes, Swedish and English. After lunch we had only one class: German! In German class they did a worksheet with the teacher. At first I tried to understand what they were talking about but after a couple of minuets I was completely lost.

Once school was over, at 12:45! love their schedule!, Hampus drove us home and then returned to school to finish his classes, he had had a free period. Once home we dropped off some of our stuff before walking into town. We were on a ongoing search of a Dalahäst. Why did we not look in Sala before trying to find them all over Sweden? They had been right under our noses this whole time! We found a great selection of Dalahäst in a floral and home goods store in the mall! Mission complete! After walking around Sala for a couple of hours we headed over to Ida's house to try and Skype Saskia and Katharina however we just missed them and were unable to connect so instead we just hung out for a while and tried out Ida's game for a scout event tonight: you had to remake a Lego structure but the structure was in a shoe box with only a couple of holes. Hanna and I joined Ida's family for an amazing dinner of potato and leak soup and corn pancake, I had never had it before and it was delicious! After dinner Ida and her family left for their scout event while Hanna and I walked back home. Along the way we meet up with Linnea and we walked home together. It was so nice to see her again since last February when she came over to MV. The rest of the night was spent watching movies, Free Willy and My Big Fat Greek Weeding!, with a midnight (aka 8:30 but it felt later because it had been so dark outside for such a long time and because we were so tired) snack. Overall a very nice day! Tack så mycket, tills vidare.
