the week that's in it

This week I passed my modul 1 Danish test at Studieskolen. I don't think anyone expected to fail, but I take everything school related really seriously so I stressed myself out the past two weeks studying.

We had drinks after the test and it was so nice to bond with those I've spent the past 6 weeks with. Some of them are moving on to do other things, but the majority of us are continuing onto module 2 next week.

I'm applying for a college course. A big one. I'll say no more because I don't expect to get it, but this is a huge step for me.

I've been catching up with some really distant blasts from the past, it feels weird but it's very nice.

The weather today is beautiful, warm and only a fraction of the breeze there usually is. I'm writing my application and getting ready to go play some Irish music at Kennedy's pub later.

Have a nice weekend :)

Hvor mange sprog kan du tale?

I (re)began Danish lessons yesterday at the Studieskolen. I started way back when but stopped going because it seemed like a huge commitment if I wasn't sure I would be staying. Well, I'm a bit surer now so I have started back. This time it's 4 days a week, during the day, and so far so good. Everyone in my class seems lovely, and my teacher forbids the asking of inane or derailing questions, which is my favourite thing about him so far.

We'll see how it goes, anyway. The pace is supposed to be quite fast so I should be caught up with Leo in no time at all. If I hear the phrase 'hvor mange sprog kan du tale?' one more time though I might cry, because it's completely redundant. No one in the real world will ever ask you how many languages you speak, will they?

I'm off to cycle the 8km into town now, wish me luck, because it's raining :)
