So this has taken me forever.
Sorry about that.
Well not really, I am sorry for being MIA but I'm not really sorry for having enjoyed my summer. So in June I was in Canada for two weeks, mostly in Toronto (just a day or so in Montreal, out of a whim really), and I had the most amazing time. Safe to say it was the best holiday I've ever had. However, more about that later on when I finally get my photos posted here too.
The summer's been unbelievably warm. Hot actually, and I think I've melted a few times, it's dreadful. I'm really not one for warm weather, I can't do anything other than drink bottle after bottle of mineral water and it's driving my dad insane. I think I drink like seven litres a day (and to anyone who thinks it is dangerously too much - I'm still alive so booyah get over it, at least I can drink).
I can't sleep whatsoever, so basically this summer has just made my insomnia much much worse, and I can't really ask for help because my shrink is on holiday. So I have my old pills for it, but seeing as they never helped, well, tough luck I suppose.
Speaking of shrinks. Since I went on holiday in June, I haven't taken a single anti-depressant, anti-anxiety or anti-anythingpill and I feel fabulous.
I think it's safe to say I'm no longer depressed. I am a tad worried about the start of my new school year, because if I start stressing out again, I might need to start taking pills too, but let's just wait and see, shall we?
And yes, I was accepted to Haaga-Helia to become a multilingual management assistant. So from the end of this month on, I will be studying business and languages. Hopefully by the end of the next four years (that's about as long as the studies will take), I'll be able to speak over ten languages. That's my goal anyway. I'd like to get to twenty before I die.
On the 19th I will have a Swedish test to maybe get exempt from the course, because if I have to take another Swedish course with people who can't even say their own names in Swedish I will kill someone. I use Swedish every single day, seriously need to get a free pass.
Anyway other than that I'll have to start studying Chinese, German and French, and I hope that I can choose Russian at some point.
I've also been writing quite a bit. I had about 65 pages of a book written, and I think now it's more like a hundred pages. I always write by hand on paper, so I actually don't know how many pages it really is since I've yet to copy it on the PC. But we'll see. Hopefully! Maybe one day I'll get the courage to let someone actually read it. Would anyone actually be interested?
Yay, I'm so glad to hear you had a good holiday, and that you haven't needed your pills, and about your upcoming studies :) I haven't used Swedish at all since I graduated from high school so my skills are probably pretty dreadful at the moment, but I do remember those days at school when 99% of the other students couldn't do basic Swedish and I was like what's so damn hard about it xD
ReplyDeleteI know right :D and it's by far the easiest language I've encountered. Sure it's as much work as other languages if you just want to learn the basics, but once you know the basics, you pretty much know everything (it's that easy)
DeleteGood the writing is going so well, and your mood. Ugh, I hate summer, I dehydrate easily, have to remind myself to drink!
ReplyDeleteThat dog picture is the cutest thing ever, thanks for sharing it, it made me smile!
Ahh I hope you've remembered to rehydrate!
DeleteDogs always make me smile too <3
