update.

it's been a while now, longer than planned.
I've had loads of homework lately, but today I have less!

Since last time, not much has happened. Things are getting into a daily routine. Getting up at 6 every morning, hurrying to get to school. Then I'm not too good at staying awake in my first classes.. The two first ones, english and us history are pretty boring sometimes. My calculus teacher loves me, and I've been doing pretty well on tests so far. I don't have any problems following my classes so far.

After that, the science classes are more interesting, and I finish off with lunch before photography. Lunch here is brilliant, with really good schoolmeals. I always promise myself not to buy, and so I bring my own lunch. But I always eat it in some class before I get to the cafeteria. Since I'm a senior, I'm allowed to sit outside, which is great! Lately I've been sitting with the ''cool kids'', and they're a lot of fun :)

As for Cross Country, we've had two meets now. Both of which I did okay in, but nothing special. The first one was just like a test, and I finished 32/69 with a time of 19:47. The second one was a lot more important, and against two other schools. Unfortunately, I failed at my task of coming in before their 5th guy. But we still won! My coach realized that the mileage we've had the last few weeks is a little much for an untrained guy like me, so he promised me to let me recover from my numerous injuries this week (painful knee, hip and shinsplints (beinhinnebetennelse)).

Other than that, I've experienced how strict teachers here are today. First I was told by a teacher to put my iPod EARBUDS away, if not she'd take them. After that, I was in the chemistry lab, and was told to pull my pants up because the teacher saw a glimpse of my underwear (clever as I was, I didn't say that it was the closest she'd ever get to a fit male individual again without paying).

This weekend we're probably going to a big fair (tivoli) with some other exchange students, I think that'll be fun. I've also cut my hair shorter than I've ever had it before, and it's SO nice! I love not having all that hair in my face..
