Loosing my language

I have a hard time trying to make interresting post on my blog. I love to write, but I have a problem. I feel like I'm loosing the english language. It is because I dont speak english at a everyday basis. That means I can't really My language is now a strange mix of norwegian, swedish, english, latin with some czech words from now and then.

My class sometimes laugh a bit when I answer the questions asked in lectures. Last week my lecturer thought I said "jam" when the answer was "hunger". For the record; the norwegian word for hunger is "sult", whereas the swedish word for jam is "sylt".

Anyway, I'm considering to change language in my blog back to norwegian again. I don't know how many foreign/non-nordic readers I have. I have no idea..!

One week from now I have this term's last final. The subject is "Structure and function of the organs part II". Then I'll travel home and work at the local hospital and the elderly home for the whole summer. Hopefully, I'll go to my mother's birthplace for one week vacation in august and the last week in august will probably be used for some epilepcy tests at Umeå University Hospital.

Terror

I had to go to centrum of Umeå today, had a appointment with my chiropractor. My back wasn't that bad today, for the first time in 2 years it was totally pain free to get the treatment. I feel a bit tired, chiropractic treatment, hot and heavy weather and 6 hours physiology (more or less) does about anyone tired.

Anyway, at my way back to the bus I remembered that my brand new glasses needed adjustment. So I went to the optician. Then I had to stop by the grocery store. To get there I have to pass through a clothing store. Nothing special about that, except that I Noticed a some peculiar arrangement of clothes category combination. First, hidden in a corner, there was the plus size category. Next to it a wall of sports garnments. And then, just a couple of meters away and in direct vision contact to plus size I spotted the new collection of bikinis. So, put the fatties and the hotties in the same corner. It will really help out on the self esteem for both those who need plus size and for those anorectics who think they're fat and are forced (by their own) to buy yet a set of sports clothes..

(And yes, there is something to be said about netiquette. I have to have summer classes in this subject for some of my nearest and dearest. Ahrg!)

Lightning and thunder

Isn't it strange? Today the sun rised at 03.32 am. It set at 21.41 and it is still dusk. In about a month (when i got my last final this semester), the night wil only last about 3 hours and 15 minutes, and it will be dusk the intire time.

The summer arrived yesterday, with lightning and thunder. My head gets quite heavy and sore before a thunder, so I knew it for quite some hours before the clouds gathered. Since my head doesn't work very well with thunder, my reading had to end quite early. And the telly and computer had to be off.. So what to do when the rain sweeps over my brand new windows? Well.. I found me myself some ice cream and sat in the sofa and watched the nature.

The rain washed away the very last patch of snow in our garden, and I woke up to the very first day of summer today. 22 degrees celsius, blue sky and a mild breeze. Of course had I to take my beloved Guyton & Hall outside and read in the garden.. The reading it self lasted for maybe 15 minutes, but ah. sunshine!

Anyway, I realized that my reading ability is not very great in the first summer day, so I went back inside. After a bit reading (about human growth hormone), some dinner and more reading, I got that "thundering" feeling again.. So I took a peek out the windows, the clouds seemed to have gathered again. But I also noticed a young man in the back yard, at the grill.. He had a plate of meet, a nice fire on the grill and probably a beer in his hand. Not so good timing, within 5 minutes the first raindrops landed, the guy looked a bit confused before he collected his stuff and leaved the back yard. I felt a bit sorry for him.

Hm.. I think I have to gather some classmates for a grill party before the semester ends.. And by the way, I got myself a summer job.. or actuall two! One on the local eldery home, and one at the regional hospital. :)

Oh..

..then time passed by.

Had a blast in Czech Republic the weekend after easter, then I travelled home, got ill, got better, had my final (got ill again), passed my final and started to read for my next final.

Yeah, and my windows are FINALLY swopped! The new ones are much better and nicer. I have to read today, but my thougths are anywhere but at home.
