Day 69.

No , I have to talk about getting a plane ticket now, because if you get it too late it will cost crazy amounts of money, and Im staying later than they expected, so they are needing to make sure it is okay with the family I will be staying with at that time.
Yes, my hair was all stiff. It was below freezing. It gets up around 32-40 degrees during the afternoon, but the nights and mornings are below freezing. it feels nice sometimes though.

i rode my bike to school today, so that helped me not be so cold. haha.

going to stay with Maria and Camila tonight, and go to church with them.

Love to all,
Emily

Day 68.

I love life. :)
and the ability to breath. :)

anyways, today i was running 5 mins late, and it wouldnt be that bad, but 1 min is bad, because you will miss the bus if you arent standing there when it drives by, so i didnt have time to dry my hair, funny thing was i was out there for 5 mins before the bus came, but in those five mins, my hair froze. it was really funny.

anywayyss. tonight is the Rotary meeting, gonna talk to Alrild about my plane ticket home.

love to all,
Emily

Day 67.

hmm. nothing new today.

i am in math, and they are having a math test, but i dont have to take it, so im just in here for two and a half hours on facebook, and working on my website. haha. im sorry its not very organized. but i get bored when i do try to work on it.

i think im going to try harder to learn Norwegian. i really do need to learn it quick. i cant talk to a lot of people, and i get lost and confused so quick. lol

oh the story yesterday. i was on the bus, and usually there is enough seats that you can sit with an empty seat next to you, but yesterday the bus filled up pretty quick, so i had an elderly lady sitting next to me, and so i had to put my backpack near my feet. well then my bus stop came so the lady got up to let me out, and i was getting my backpack, well i went to step down from the seat to the asle, and my backpack fell off my back, so i was trying to get my backpack, and this lady isnt understanding what is going on, and these guys are looking at me, and the bus is stopped, so i was trying to hurry to get off, so i grabbed my backpack by the wrong strap, and was just gonna carry it like that, but i got almost to the next seat, and was stopped, because the right strap was caught on the arm rest. and while all of this was happening, i was near the front, so everyone could see me. so finally i was able to get my backpack on my back, and off of the bus. the funny thing was i didnt get embarrised, i just smiled and laughed at myself as i got off.

no plans really for the day. i have to go to the bank to pay for language camp. thats gonna kill my account.

anyways all for now.
love to all.
Emily

Last night we played a game that went on for a long time, it was fun, I was just totally exhausted. Like always haha. But when that game was over we went outside and played sardienes. So that was fun. I'm major exhausted now, but this whole week has been nice.

It was really nice staying with Pauli and Wenche, such a nice family, and lovely home.

we had Greek food yesterday, it was really different, a TON of garlic and onions, but it was REALLYYY good.
Wenche took me and Celine to Stokke, and we at with one of the sister workers, and Wenche's dad. Her mom was sick, but we went over there afterwards and had a little visit. it was nice. :)

i did have something i was gonna put on here, and i was thinking about it last night, but i totally forgot. hmm.

anyways im off to bed.

Emily

Day 59.

Today is a good day. Well for some reason, I woke up at 4, but yeahhhh.
Anyways Wenche and Celiene and I are all going to go eat with one of the older friends who is from Canada, not sure where though.

Answers to questions:
Dad, the lamb is good, i dont know what it tastes like really, kinda i guess reminds me of roast, but better, a lot better. and you eat it with cabbage, and its really good.
Rachelle, yes, the meeting is totally in Norwegian, from the hymns to the testamonies, Pauli takes notes in English for me though, and gives them to me after meeting. so it all works out :)
Edna, school is good. we have the whole week off this week, not sure why, but i think its because in the older times, this was the week all of the kids helped the farmers pick the potatoes. :)

Love yall,
Emily

p.s. Mom, could you find the flag and send it TODAY? cuz i need it by the 23rd of October. :) is that possible?
