I don't really have too much to write.. but..
yesterday i got a lovely package of some vegemite, and some tim tams from my lovely mother and father. So thanks for that mum and dad :)
so i spread some vegemite on some bread for Sanne and Mats... Sanne didnt mind it.. but I don't think Mats liked it very much.. he didnt really say much.. just said it was interesting.. haha.
Once Sanne had tried the vegemite.. she went to the fridge and pulled out a tube that i was really trying to avoid for as long as possible... Caviar! i had it spread on some bread... and the moment it hit my tastebuds was not one of my most treasured moments.. it tasted like a fish market smells! so i just ate it quickly and washed it down with several glasses of milk and later on some toothpaste ;)
Then later that night, me and Sanne had a cup of tea.. and i showed her how to drink the tea through the tim tams.. which was quite fun.. and funny... and delicious.
A few things i've noticed about sweden... is that they don't have tissues anywhere! i havent seen a single box of tissues ANYWHERE since i have been here. They just use toilet paper, i think.
Another thing is.. everything looks like it is from a fairytale when it is covered in snow. especially all the forests along the side of the road, bus trips to school are very pretty. Its like being in Narnia, except minus Aslan, and a witch and Mr. Tumnus.
I used to always hate those christmas trees that you could buy that are made out of white leave things... because i thought they just looked soo stupid.. and everyone knows that trees are green, not white!. however.. i now can appreciate the white christmas trees that you can buy... because i understand that a tree looks like that when it is covered in snow!! (I knew i would become a better person after this year! haha :P)
Another thing i have noticed.. and miss slightly.. is that there are like no pubs anywhere... not that i spent that much time in pubs... actually no, thats not entirely true.. i spent a fair bit of time in pubs.. especially coming home from places with Dad :) but i dont think i have seen any yet.. but i suppose that even if i did it would be red and white.. and i probably wouldnt recognise it anyway.
Tomorrow we are going to Västerås to pick up Sanne's granddaughter Loella who is 6 years old, and then we are going to Sälen for the week, which is a skiing place. We are going to stay in a cabin there somewhere which belongs to Mats' parents.. We will do some cross country skiing, and also downhill skiing.. I am looking forward to this, but am a bit nervous aswell! as i am not the most skilled skiier.
But mostly i am excited! I just tried on all my ski pants and jacket before and beanie.. i felt pretty cool :) it feels a bit weird though.. cos it feels like i did before going on yr 11/12 ski trip... but it is going to be completely different to then. one minor difference i suppose, is that i will be in Sweden and not Victoria!
It is still veryy cold here! and it has been snowing lots again. Things are going well and this first month has gone pretty quickly! oh i do miss watching cartoons on saturday mornings though!
