Today in my Swedish class we were learning different verbs. The prof. was putting pictures up of people doing things like reading, writing, talking on the phone, watching TV, etc. and she would tell us what they were doing. There were about 20 pictures and one of the pictures had a guy playing the guitar. Vad [...] A little too much gasoline…?While I’ve been here there have been a few conversations about politics and whatnot and it’s quite interesting to see foreigners’ perspective on America. I told them about my experience in Texas and how I was so impressed by their school pride. When I went jogging with my teammate one morning, [...] I met a guy in the hallway the other day who was helping one of the girls move in. He asked me where I was from, what I was studying, if I was working, etc. I told him that I wasn’t working at the moment, but I have been signed by company x to start [...] *Transcribed* We (Manuela, Janna, Anna, Jamie and I) took a trip to the IKEA this evening. I don’t think this was the biggest IKEA in the world because I really wasn’t impressed. I also found it very dark inside. It wasn’t the nice, bright, clean IKEA I’m used to seeing. The girls told me that in [...] I just finished my first Swedish language course. I was a little scared because the schedule said the class was from 17:00 – 21:00! Thankfully, the class is only 3.25 hours with a 15 minute break and not 4 hours! The teacher told us that in her 10 years of teaching at KTH she has [...] I just skipped my first Global IT Management class this morning. Bad Ian. Bad Bad Ian. I was reminded of my CEGEP (college) days when I wouldn’t attend classes if they started before 09:00! Note: About 40% of my classes started before 09:00, so I didn’t go to school very much. Yesterday night I couldn’t get [...] I met quite a few people at the party last night including a fellow Canadian. She was from St. Thomas which is supposed to be close to London, ON. My corridor-mate Ted noticed that we were talking much faster. I told him I wasn’t sure if we were actually talking faster or if she was [...] *Transcribed* I read a blog post the other day which spoke about enjoying your time alone while travelling and being at one with yourself and nature. Yeah…that sounds very “treehugger-ish”, but what can I say? I found it inspirational. ;) I decided to get on the Tunnelbana and explore the city for a little while. I [...] *Transcribed* Last night, I went to bed around 22:00. I suddenly woke up at 02:00 and couldn’t get back to sleep until about 04:30. I woke up this afternoon at 14:30. I’m not yet sure if I’m jetlagged or lazy. When I woke up, there was a power failure and so all the lights were off. [...] *Transcribed* “…the truth is…you can TRY to run from us now, but sooner or later…we’re gonna’ hump you!”-Russell Peters The first thing I noticed the second I stepped into the class was that there was a bunch of Chinese and Indian people. It was like being at Concordia all over again! I thought back to [...] |
