Swedish Class Commences!!!

So finally the anticipation's over and I started Swedish night classes today. Today, we learned the alphabet. So the alphabet are basically the same except there are the extra A's, and most of the letters are pronounced a bit differently to English. Spent 2 hours getting the pronunciation up to scratch and I really need to go over them over and over so they burn into my brain and make reading easier for next week.

Maybe going to find some Swedish movies to watch and get the intonation and slang burned into my brain as well. Lots of burning in. Hope I can move fairly quickly through this stuff and start reading basic children's book by the end of the semester.

The Dots Ensue

Feeling a bout of melancholy coming along. Going back to Perth tomorrow afternoon and with that back to work. I still feel sort of holiday-ish. The food, I am so going to miss the food...And I hate packing. Well, a few more hectic weeks and things should die down again. Hope I can continue being motivated to do the stuff that needs doing and also the stuff I want done. Pushing through to the end of 2010. And no more getting sick pretty please.
