Et lite kikk i det norske kjøkkenet - del 8

Vitam Vas pri dnesnom "sviatocnom" vydani relacie Maly pohlad do norskej kuchyne. Dnes Vam predstavim vianocne jedlo. Vianocne klobasky, rebro, k tomu zemiaky, hrachova kasa, cervena a kysla kapusta, brusnice a hneda omacka. Velmi lahke na pripravu. K tomu sa hodi specialna vianocna limonada - julebrus alebo podomackyvyrobene pivo. Ako dezert mame ovocny salat so zmrzlinou. Dobru chut.

Welcome by today's "Christmas" part of our series A quick glance in the Norwegian cuisine. Today I proudly present you the Christmas food. Christmas sausages, rib, potatoes, peas porridge, sauerkraut, lingonberries and brown sauce. Very easy to prepare. One special Christmas fizzy drink - julebrus and home-brewed beer are very good as drinks. The dessert is ice cream with fruit salad. Bon appetit.

Julaften - Stedry vecer - The Christmas Eve

V pondelok bol Stedry vecer a ako som slubil, prinasam z neho cerstve informacie:-) Prebudil som sa kusok po desiatej. Ta Hildina roleta je super vec, ked chce clovek spat. Na ranajky som si dal kakao, nakolko som sa rozhodol postit uplne. A nevidel som ziadne zlate prasiatko:-(((((( Iba zlateho psa, ale ten je tu kazdy den... Asi o 11 islo na NRK Tri orisky pro Popelku. Nori si uz zvykli, ze tato rozpravka musi byt kazdy rok. Tak som si to aj ja pozrel po niekolkych rokoch. Daboval to len jeden chlap, takze to bolo skoro ako citanie knihy. Zaujimave:-) A v podstate si uz ani velmi nepamatam co som robil cely den. O tretej som isiel so starou mamou do kostola. Uplne tam bolo napraskane. Sme tam prisli pol hodinu pred zaciatkom a uz sa skoro nedalo kam sadnut. Omsa trvala len 45 min. a knaz toho aj tak vela nenarozpraval. O piatej bola u nas slavnostna vecera. Boli sme 7 - ja, Atle, Eva, John, Johnovi rodicia Johanne a Magnus a Magnusov brat Magne. Na Vianoce su oblubene dve jedla. Prve je lutefisk - coz je akasi zhnita treska (neberte to uplne doslovne ale nieco take by to malo byt, vyskusam to a poviem :-P). No my sme mali ako vacsina rodin rebro a vianocne parky. K tomu bola hrachova kasa, kysla a cervena kapusta, brusnicovy dzem, hneda omacka,zemiaky a este lefser - nieco ako arabska placka len vacsie. Ako dezert sme mali zmrzlinu s ovocnym salatom. Akoze ono to bolo vyborne ale oproti kaprovi a kapustnici a pupackom to posobi dost jednoducho. Vsetci sme vsak boli najedeni. Potom sme si na chvilu sadli do obyvacky a zacali rozbalovat darceky. Dostal som mnoho darcekov s motivom Trysilu - Johanne mi ustrikovala palciaky so starym Trysilskym motivom, dostal som salku Trysil a aj mikinu Trysil. Potom sme este asi do 11 sedeli pri kave. Ja som sa pobral spat ale oni debatovali este do pol tretej. Na druhy den to bol dobry pocit, ze konecne si mozem dat ranajky:-) Mal som ist vyskusat k Tomasovi Lutefisk na veceru, ale zavolal, ze su vsetci chori a ze ma nechcu nakazit. Takze sa to odklada na niekedy inokedy. Co uz. Napiekol som muffiny a potom siel na bezky na trat oproti domu. O stvrtej sme boli pozvany na middag k Johanne. V podstate sme si zopakovali to iste jedlo ako vcera. Potom sme sa poniektori ponorili do polhodinoveho slofika:-))). Chvilku sme posedeli pri TV, podakovali sa a sli domov. Na druhy den nam cez noc trocha nasnezilo. Tak som si vyskusal frezu. To bolo skoro ako jazdit na motorke:-))) Same packy a gombiky.... Ale inak to bol oddychovy den pri TV. Vecer sme isli na veceru k Evinej sestre Marit. Tu som sa stretol po prvy krat aj s jej jedinym bratom Knutom. Po navsteve som si akurat pozrel Casino Royale a siel spat. Tak takto som stravil tieto sviatocne dni.

On monday was The Christmas Eve. As I promised I am here with fresh info:-) I woke up a bit after 10:00. I drank cacao because I decided to fast properly. Then I watched Cinderella - a czech film which is, as I found out, tradition not only in Slovakia but in Norway as well. It was dubbed by only one man who dubbed it like book reading. Interesting.:-P But I do not actually remember what I was doing the whole day. Together with John's mom I went to the afternoon service at local church. It was really crowded there. The service lasted only 45 min.. Then we all met by table at 5 o'clock. There were 7 of us - Atle, Eva, John, me, John's parents Johanne and Magnus and Magnus' brother Magne. There are two typical Christmas meals. The first one is lutefisk - mouldy cod ( do not take it literally but it is something like that. I will try it later and tell you :-D) But we had, as the majority of families, rib and Christmas sausages. Together with peas porridge, sauerkraut, lingonberry jam, brown condiment, potatoes. Dessert was ice-cream with fruit salad. It was delicious but not as good as Slovakian Christmas food. We were really full after eating all. Then we sat in the living room and after a while began to unwrap presents. I got many gifts with Trysil topic - gloves, a tea cup, jacket... We drank cofee til 23:00 and then I went to sleep. But the others went on until 2:30. It was a good feeling the next day, when I could eat breakfast:-P. I should have visited Thomas that evening to try out lutefisk but they were ill. So I will eat it another time. I baked muffins and went cross-country skiing. We ate dinner by Johanne. It was the same as last day - ribs and sausages. Then we watched TV and went home. This morning it snowed again. I tried out that machine which shovels the snow away. It was like riding a motorbike:-) All these buttons and things... But it was more or less a day of relax. In the evening we went to eat the dinner by Eva's sister Marit. There I met Eva's brother Knut for the first time. After this visit I watched Casino Royale and went to sleep. So this is how my Christmas days looked like.

Co je tu ine ako na SK --- No english version this time

Tento prispevok vam pripravujem uz od oktobra, aby som nieco nezabudol a napisal co najviac. Jeho cielom je zosumarizovat rozdiely medzi mojim zivotom na Slovensku a tu, rozdiely norskych a slovenskych obycajov a este zopar zaujimavosti. Niektore veci su len irelevantne hovadinky, ale ked sa ma nieco spravit, tak poriadne:-) Mnohe z toho, co tu stoji, som uz napisal, ale kedze toto je taky komplexny prehlad, uvediem to este raz:

- sprcha je sucastou kupelny bez ziadnych zavesov, takze sa voda musi ,,zmetat" z celej kupelne do kanala :-) ( jedna z tych nepodstatnych hovadiniek )

- vysavac sa napaja do diery v stene a prach ide cez steny do kontajnera v prizemi

- vela Norov nechodi na vysoku, kedze maju dost specializovane uz stredne skoly. Preto su tu schopni ludia s vyssim vzdelanim vitany. A podla Tomasa, Cecha, ktory tu pracuje v zdravotnickom centre, ak sa osvedcis, tak ta uz nepustia

- s domacou som sa zhodol v otazke zdravej stravy, takze mame dostatok zeleniny a celozrnnych vyrobkov

- mnohokrat sa rodina nestretava spolocne pri veceri, ale berie si ju pred TV a pred pocitac. Troska divne pre mna.

- Nori su aj podla ich vlastnych slov ,,nevychovani''. Nemaju poriadny vyraz na Dobru chut alebo Na zdravie ( pri kychnuti ). Bezne sa tyka vsetkym (ked jeden ziak zavolal na riaditelku krstnym menom, tak som sa skoro rozosmial:-)) a ani vo formalnych listoch sa nepise nic take ako Vazene damy a pani. Rozne ulozenie priboru na tanieri po dojedeni je tiez asi nezname. Aspon v tejto rodine

- mam viac volneho casu, pretoze sa nemusim tolko ucit; mnohe ulohy sa robia v ramci hodiny. v Prievidzi sa vacsinou ulohy musia robit z hodiny na hodinu, tu mame niekedy tak tyzden cas, ale zato su tie ulohy dlhsie - znamkovanie 1-6 ( 1 najhorsia 6 najlepsia ), vacsina si tu aj tak nerobi ulohy, kym nemusia. Potom maju kopu uloh a stazuju sa ze nestihaju

- moznost, vlastne skor povinnost, prenajat si pocitac a aktivna praca s nim skoro na vsetkych hodinach

- na telesnej sa ide podla planu a na kazdej hodine sa robi nieco ine. Preto to nie je take nudne ako doma, kde stale hravame dokola to iste

- ine stravovanie - ziadne mamickou pripravene ranajky, ked vstanem :-), takze cez tyzden vlocky, v skole jedno jablko, ak dlhy den tak sa kupi aj nejak bageta a teple jedlo je az na vecer. Nove jedla ako risgrøt - ryzova kasa, kjøttkaker - masove karbanatky, jedia sa casto s brusnicovym kompotom alebo kyslou kapustou a zemiakmi, fiskekaker - rybie karbanatky, fiskepudding - rybi puding, vyzera to, ako keby sa rybie karbanatky robili prave z toho, predava sa to balene ako nejaka sunka a je to taka zelatinova hmota, este som nenasiel odvahu ochutnat to:-), brunost - typicky hnedy norsky syr, chut nie je zla, ale lepi sa dost na podnebie, sobie maso, pultost - ak ste uz vonali olomoucke syrecky, tak tie maju lahodnu vonu oproti tomuto, skusil som to ochutnat, ale chuti to rovnako ako to smrdi:-) navyse to vyzera skor ako ryza nez syr; vyborny celozrnny hutny chlieb, ktory pecie Eva

- viac casu na golf a moznost trenovat pod vedenim trenera, po zaplateni clenskeho poplatku , ktory v tomto klube nie je 100 000 sk ako na Slovensku, som mal vsetko zadarmo, slovensky golf ma este co dohanat, takto sa ma podporovat mladez a rast mladych talentov ( to sa nevztahuje na mna, ja mam od Tigera daleko :-))

- drviva vacsina ludi hovori bez problemov anglicky. Je to hlavne podmienene tym, ze filmy v televizii su s norskymi titulkami a taktiez zahranicne filmy na DVD nie su predabovane

- vacsina budov je drevenych, aspon tu na vidieku :-) Vyzera to pekne, ale ze vraj sa musia malovat kazdych desat rokov

- syrovy platkovac ( neviem ako sa to vola po slovensky, viete co myslim:-)) je norsky vymysel - v mojej rodine sa pije hlavne kava a cista voda, caj tu nie je az tak popularny

- krici sa tu zdola a zhora, namiesto toho, aby vysli hore schodmi :-) A ked Eva zavolala z pevnej linky z obyvacky na horne poschodie Atlemu, tak to som sa od smiechu ledva drzal na nohach, sice som asi mal skor plakat

- veeeeela TV programov

- ziaci su tu na hodinach disciplonovanejsi a vacsina sa snazi mat dobre znamky, aspon v mojej triede

- menej biflovania, priatelsky pristup ucitelov a zaujimavejsi sposob podania uciva - az na matiku, to sa neda:-)

- rozne smery na jednej strednej skole - vseobecny, sportovy, stavbarsky, kucharsky, dizajnersky

- nabicykloval som tu hadam viac ako za cely svoj zivot. Bicykle su tu velmi oblubene

- ked som prvy krat prisiel poziadat o vizum, chovali sa ku mne ako k nejakemu teroristovi:-), ludia maju radsej svojich a od pristahovalcov si radsej drzia odstup, aj ked to sa neskor prelomi. Treba len ukazat, ze si minimalne rovnako dobry ako oni, byt priatelsky a mas respekt a uznanie

- na Slovensku som este nepocul, ze by u seba prespavali aj chlapci, vzdy len dievcata. Atle dost casto chodi niekam prespat, alebo oni prespavaju u nas. Hmmmmmmmm....

- nemcine som sa musel venovat viac ako ked som studoval na Slovensku. Casto mam teraz problem, ked hovorim s Nemcom, ze moja nemcina je mix nemciny a norstiny a ked zo mna nieco take vyjde, tak si to uvedomim az po chvili. Budem musiet nachvilku vypustit norstinu z hlavy, ked pridem. Aspon po Sprachdiplom:-) Nie je to velka sranda. Mozno som predsa mal radsej ist na rok do Nemecka. Ale aj tak nelutujem, ze som isiel sem

- Nori nemaju tolko stavnatych nadavok ako Slovaci

- mladi tu chodia poobliekani mnohokrat velmi zvlastne. Na Slovensku by sa za nimi na ulici asi dost obzerali. Teplaky do skoly su velmi oblubene. Volne oblecenie a zimne capice su samozrejmostou. Najzaujimavejsie su strikovane pestrofarebne capice a roztahane svetre:-) Moda je tu vazne zvlastna - teplaky sa zapravuju do ponoziek, aspon u zien:-) ale videl som to uz aj u muzov. Vzdy sa na tom dobre pobavim, lol:-P

- vychova je volnejsia, v urcitej miere sa dohliada na dodrzovanie pravidiel, ale radsej sa kazdy stara sam o seba. Preto sa casto stavalo, ze Atle sa hral hodiny na pocitaci, alebo pozeral TV dlho do noci ( ci skor do rana ). Mnohokrat som ho nasiel rano spat na pohovke pred TV. Ale mozno je to vo vacsine rodin normalne a ja som len divny:-)

- ludia sa tu dozivaju vyssieho veku, lebo sa zdravo stravuju a sportuju. Johanna, Johnova mama, ma vyse 70 a chodi na bezky spolu s manzelom Magnusom, ktory ma 80 a este pred dvoma rokmi chodieval behavat. Nuz, uzivaju si zivot aj v starobe:-)

- tvrdsi alkohol sa predava len v specializovanych obchodoch Vinmonopolet. V normalnych potravinach je len nizkoalkoholicke pivo

- vela ludi tu nefajci. Popularny je tu ,,snus''. Tabak predavany v malych dozickach. Clovek si z neho usula malu hrudku a da si ju pod hornu peruna dasna. Alebo si hodi do ust maly sacik s tabakom. Malo by sa toto rozsirit. Aspon my nefajciari nemusime dychat dym z cigariet

- rozsirena je tu Norska cirkev, cize evanjelici, ale vacsina ludi su ateisti

- na umeleckych skolach sa nedostava ziadne vysvedcenie. Je to v podstate len kurz, za ktory si zaplatis

- triedenie odpadu je tu samozrejmostou - papiere, plechovky, plast, bioodpad a potom vsetko ostatne

- nakolko sa v skole musi robit tolko s pocitacom, stravil som za nim viac casu ako obvykle, takze sa uz tesim na stare dobre zosity

- rozsirene je tu MSN, ICQ tu skoro vobec nepoznaju

- soferi tu na prechode prechodcov v 99% pripadov zastavia. Dost mi trvalo, kym som si na to zvykol:-) Nuz, ked zacinaju jazdit od 16 a v 18 mozu ziskat vodicak, tak jasne, ze sa chovaju lepsie ako slovenski soferi , v obci sa jazdi 50, mimo obce 80, na dialnici 100. Pokuty byvaju dost vysoke. Za vodicak sa ale tiez platia hrozne sumy - od 10 do 20 000 NOK

- ceny su niekedy hrozne drahe - za ostrihanie zaplatite asi 250 NOK - vynasobte si to teraz 4mi a zistite, preco som si nechal narast dlhe vlasy + maju tu rozne ceny za ostrihanie muza a zeny. Co sa bol jeden spoluziak odstrihat, tak musel zaplatit 350 NOK a zeny tam platili 400 NOK

- lekari a ucitelia zarabaju vyborne

- VSETCI sa po telesnej sprchuju

- na hodinach sa bohuzial nechrli tolko vtipov ako u nas v triede:-) To vedia asi len moji spoluziaci tak genialne

- reflexne pasky a vesty su samozrejmost, aspon u dospelych. U mladych sa moze stat, ze ich nenosia

- voksenopplæring - na strednej mozu studovat aj starsi ludia, co este nedokoncili strednu. Napr. na sociologii mame jednu tridsiatnicku. Myslim ze za mlada bola clenkou hipis, tak usudzujem podla vyzoru:-)

- na zaciatku som mal problem rozumiet ako sa niekto vola, ked sa mi predstavoval, lebo tu maju vacsinou mena, ake som v zivote nepocul. Muzi: Gjermund, Anders, Tore, Øyvind, Erland... Zeny: Ingvild, Ranghild, Tonje, Marit, Silje, Ingeborg.... mnohokrat ked som videl napisane nejake meno, tak som sa musel spytat ci je to zena alebo muz, z coho mali vsetci obrovsku srandu:-P

- telesna nie je rozdelena na chlapcensku a dievcensku skupinu, ale vsetci su spolu. Na to, ze skola ma iba 300 studentov, tak ta telocvicna je asi 3krat taka velka ako mame v skole a da sa oddelit na tri mensie zavesmi

- celkom lacne DVD - vacsinou za 75 NOK, co je asi 300 sk

- bankovky a mince su hodnotami skoro uplne rovnake ako slovenske, len 20 korun maju ako mincu

- vela modrokych blondiniek :-) ( pise sa to s y alebo s i?)

- pri pozdrave sa zvykne len dotknut sa navzajom licami, ale nie bozkavat sa na lica

- straze pred Slottom (:)) sa mozu pohybovat. Bol som tym dost prekvapeny. Ked si predstavim tych stuhnutych straznikov pred Buckinghamom, v Prahe alebo pred Grassalkovichovym... Tito maju stastie

- nezamestnanost 2,4%, co je menej ako 60 000 ludi. Mame co dohanat:-)

- niektori ludia su tu zahladeni viac do seba. Na SK je samozrejmostou, ze stari rodicia sa ponukaju postrazit vnucata. Tu to mnohych ani nenapadne a este ich musis aj presviedcat...

- dost ludi tu chodi na bezky v porovnani so Slovenskom. Ved tu maju kilometre a kilometre trati... Aj lyziari sa mi zdaju v priemere na lepsej urovni ako slovenski

- na odhadzovanie snehu tu pouzivaju hlavne frezu, nie lopatu. Ach ta pohodlnost... Ale zase toho snehu tu moze byt skutocne vela

- Nori maju neuveritelne mnozstvo dialektov a ked sa k tomu pridaju este dva rozne spisovne jazyky, tak je to uz uplny gulas. Ale v podstate sa da tym nareciam rozumiet dobre, lebo v TV aj radiu pocuje clovek reporterov z roznych oblasti. V okoli Osla sa hovori cistym bokmålom, zatial co na juhozapade to ide skor do novej norstiny. Na zapadnom pobrezi (Bergen, Ålesund) rackuju a my tu v Trysile sa vyjadrujeme svedskymi vyrazmi. Zato na Lofotach maju zase iny dialekt

- v potravinach sa mince hadzu do takej debnicky, ktora ti spocita, ci si dal presne a popripade ti vyda. Bankovky sa davaju normalne predavacke

- minisukna ide vzdy len s teplymi pancuchacmi. Bez nich by im bola asi dost zima:-)

Nuz to je vacsina toho, co som si vsimol a o co som sa chcel s vami podelit. Ako vidite nie to tu zase ako v raji ale stazovat si nemozem. Ludia sa vzdy musia na nieco stazovat:-) Nic nie je dokonale. Pekne Vianoce a novy rok.
- 46% obyvatelstva je len so skoncenou strednou skolou, a ti co idu na vysoku, tak tam drviva vacsina pobudne len do bakalara. Myslim, ze len 6% Norov ma vyssie vzdelanie (5 rokov na VS)

O tomto su tury na bezkach....

This is what the nordic skiing handles about...

Risgrøt a spievajuci ucitelia --- Risgrøt and singing teachers

A mame tu uz 51. tyzden v roku. Este prednedavnom sme oslavovali novy rok a uz je to tu zas. Vyzdobene ulice, domacnosti a ludia zelajuci si krasne Vianoce a stastny novy rok (alebo po nasom God jul og godt nytt år). Neviem cim to je, ale vianocnu atmosferu iba vidim, no necitim. Minuly rok, ked sme si posledny den v skole zelali pekne Vianoce, tak som vnutri citil radost. Radost a obdiv z toho aky su ludia ku sebe zrazu mili. Priam neuveritelne, co moze jeden clovek (alebo skor Boh) sposobit a ludia si to pripominaju uz storocia. No ako som uz spomenul, rovnaku atmosferu ako minuly rok teraz necitim. Neviem cim to je. Ci celym tymto nie az tak dobrym rokom, alebo novym prostredim. Citim sa tu sice vitany, ale nie az takym sposobom ako je to doma. Uz sa vsak tesim na Stedry den, aky som este nezazil:-P

No ale spat k mojmu tyzdnu. Bol to uz skor taky oddychovy tyzden. Studenti si navzajom davali darceky a aj ucitelia sa snazili vyucovanie naladit trocha vianocne. Nas ucitel nemciny mozno skonci po novom roku, lebo to nestiha so svojimi dvoma firmami a este aj vyucovanim. No napriek tomu sa nam mozno podari ist na ten jeden tyzden do Nemecka. Utornajsiu (to ako zvlastne vyzera toto slovo napisane:-P) nemcinu sme si spravili s kavickou a kolacikmi. Eva kupila formu na muffiny, tak som napiekol:-D Mali lepsi tvar, ako ked som to piekol bez formy:-). Chutili... Na nasledujucej hodine norstiny sme mali predniest 2minutovu prednasku o nejakej teme, ktoru sme preberali. Tak som si zvolil Piesen o Rolandovi, pretoze to bolo pre mna to najlahsie, nakolko sme sa to ucili pred 2 rokmi. Na matematike sme potom preberali nejaku standardnu odchylku ci co to bolo. A mohol som ist domov. Opat po tme. Clovek by si tu mal uzit tych 6 a pol hodin svetla a nie sediet v skole:-) No teraz to tu uz dva tyzdne vyzera tak, ze idem za sera v minus 15 do skoly a vraciam sa za tmy v minus 15 domov. Takze mame slnecne dni za cenu hroznej kosy. V stredu bol posledny skolsky den. Najprv sme asi do 11:00 boli s triedou. Pozreli sme film Death à la funeral. Vynikajuca anglicka komedia. Potom sme mali rozne aktivity. Nakolko ja som si ked sme si ich kedysi davno vyberali vybral film, tak som si musel pozriet dalsi film. Happy feet o stepujucom tucniakovi. Bolo to divne. Po filme sme mali asi tri hodiny pauzu, nakolko ostatne aktivity trvali dlhsie. Tak sme to nejak presedeli v jedalni a tuzobne cakali na ryzovu kasu. Ta bola lepsia, ako robi Eva. Omnoho. Hlavne nebola slana:-) O 16:00 sme sa uz museli presunut do telocvicne, kde bol prihovor riaditelky a ucitelia spievali rozne koledy. Medzi inym zaspievali Tichu noc po anglicky, nemecky, dansky, norsky, svedsky, polsky a portugalsky. Ked uz tu mame take medzinarodne ucitelske zlozenie. Boli sme vsetci radi, ked sme konecne o 17:00 mohli ist domov. Isiel som si zaplavat a vecer bol 123 - festen. Party organizovana specialne pre studentov na strednej asi 4krat do roka. Tak som sa rozhodol tam zaskocit, ked uz tam islo aj mnoho ludi z mojej triedy. Bolo to v restauracii Laaven hned pri svahu. Cez den sa vyuziva ako restauracia pre lyziarov ale v noci je to party podnik. Prislo celkom dost ludi. Maturanti to tam poriadne roztocili a mnohi boli poobliekani ako vianocni skriatkovia - teda skor si predstavte nejakeho Tirolaka, asi tak to vyzeralo. A co sa stava zriedka, a teraz citate dobre, prosim aplauz, ano ja som tancoval:-))). Nehovorim sice ze uplne s radostou a ze teraz zacnem chodit kazdy piatok na diskoteky, ale tancoval som, a to je pokrok. Toto prostredie tu ma na mna socializacny vplyv:-). Do postele som si lahol asi o pol stvrtej rano a vyspinkal sa do ruzova, kedze mame prazdniny. Vo stvrtok som si bol vyskusat bezkarsku trat co mame cez cestu. Je to sice len taky kilometrovy okruh cez tri dvory, ale fajn, ze je to tak blizko. Tak som si spravil zo 10 okruhov a siel domov. Na druhy den v podstate to iste, nic take zaujimave sa neudialo. Akurat vecer sme boli na vianocnom koncerte v kostole. Bolo to celkom mile, aj ked sa tam viac hralo na nastroj ako spievalo. Ale chor predviedol jednu dobru à capella pesnicku:-)V sobotu som isiel so spoluziakom Linusom na svah. Uz su teraz otvorene vsetky vleky, len nejake zjazdovky este chybaju, takze je to tu teraz uplne super. V podstate sme presli celu horu dokola. Vyskusali sme si aj jazdu cez les a pomedzi chaty - to bola najvacsia sranda dna:-D. Je to tu uzasne, ze tu maju okolo 5000 chat a vacsina z nich ma ski in a ski out moznost. Takze si viete predstavit ake velke to tu je. Vecer prisla Evina sestra Åse s manzelom a detmi, tak sme posedeli. Popil som trochu kavy (vsak je vikend:-P) a siel spat - tentokrat som zaspal skorsie ako minule :-). V nedelu som siel na bezky. Eva ma vyhodila vo Fageråsene, skadial som obisiel asi polovicku hory za tri hodiny a skoncil som pri Turistsenteret. Slniecko svietilo, proste parada. Najhorsie to bolo v prvej stvrtine, ked trat isla aj trocha z kopca a ja som sa este celkom nenaucil brzdit:-) Po mnohych padoch a modrinach bol uz ale teren rovnejsi a ja som sa naucil brzdit. Uzitocna vec;-P. Troska som ale zabludil a zobral to skratkou. Tak som si nechcene skratil turu asi o 6 km. Zrazu som bol len medzi chatami a zrazu som sa ocitol na svahu:-D. Tak som sa spustil ku chatkam, ze vyzujem sa a ten kusok uz prekracam. Ale ta lyza mi nesla odopnut... Nastastie ked som si na spicku nalial trocha horuceho caju, tak to uz povolilo. Este ze som ho mal so sebou. Poobede som trocha poumyval v dome a vyzdobili sme stromcek. Takze je vsetko pripravene na Vianoce. Za par dni napisem, ze ako to tu na Stedry vecer vyzeralo. Dovtedy pa-pa.

And suddenly it is the 51st week of the year. Just a moment ago we were celebrating the new year and now it has come again. Decorated streets, people wishing Merry Christmas and happy new year (or as we say it here: God jul og godt nytt år) to each other. I do not know why, but I think I can only see the atmosphere but not feel it. Last shool day one year agoe, when we wished Merry Christmas, I felt joy. Joy and amusement over how nice people suddenly are. It is incredible, what one man (or God?) can leave behind himself and make people to remind it for centuries. But as I have already said, I do not feel the same atmosphere as last year. I do not know why. If it is because this shit-year (I apologize) or new family,culture and habits. I feel myself welcomed but it is not the same as at home. But in spite of that I am really looking forward to the Christmas Eve I have never experienced before:-)

But back to my week. It was actually a week filled with relax. Students were giving presents to each other and even teachers tried to mix Christmas topics and education. Our German teacher will probably leave us after the holiday because he does not have enough time both for his two companies and for us. But maybe we will manage to spend one week in Germany no matter what. On our German lesson on Tuesday we brought coffe and cakes. So it was a good excuse to bake some muffins:-P. ON the next lesson, Norwegian, we had to talk 2 minutes about something what we have learned so far. After that just French and Math and I could go home. Again in the dark. One should enjoy those 6 and half hours of sunlight and not sit at school:-). So during the last two weeks I have been walking to school in -15 by sunrise and going home in -15 in the dark. The sun has been shining in two weeks but it is terribly cold. Wednesday was the last school day. I was together with my class til 11:00. We watched a great English comedy - Death à la funeral. After that we had different activities til 15:00. When we were choosing them a few weeks ago I chose a film, unfortunately. We watched Happy feet. It was quite weird in my opinion. 15:00 rice porridge was served. Delicious. And at 16:00 began the official program. School director held a speech and teacher sang many songs. Silent night, holy night in 6 different languages was quite interesting :-P. But everyone was happy when we could go home at 17:00. I went swimming and there was 123 - fest (party) at 22:00. It was quite OK there. And I danced:-) It is rare to see that I dance but I danced:-) I came home first at 3:30 and collapsed into bed. On Thursday I went cross-country skiing. We have a path on the other side of road. It is just one km long but it is great that it is so close. So I made maybe 10 circles and went home. The same on Friday. Otherwise nothing interesting. Saturday was spent with my classmate Linus snowboarding in the mountains. We went around the whole mountain. It is really great here when almost everything is opened. We rode through the forrest and between cottages as well. It was really fun. On sunday I went nordic skiing again. I started in Fageråsen and finished 3 hours later by Turistsenteret. I wanted to go longer, but I got lost and unintentionally took shortcut:-) Then I cleaned up the house and me and Atle decorated the Christmas tree. I will inform you about the Christmas Eve here later. Have a nice Christmas:-)

Et lite kikk i det norske kjøkkenet - del 7

Vitajte! Dnes tu mame opat velmi typicke norske jedlo. Obzvlast v zimnych mesiacoch. Risgrøt - ryzova kasa. Toto jedlo sa spaja hlavne s obdobim Vianoc a vianocni skriatkovia su casto zobrazovani s misou ryzovej kase. Priprava je velmi jednoducha. Asi 2 dcl ryzovej kase (nie normalna ryza - predava sa to tu v balikoch) zmiesame nad ohnom so 4 dcl mlieka. Cvilku miesame, kym to trocha nestuhne. Pridame sol. Cely hrniec potom dame do teplej rury a nechame ho tam stat asi 8 hodin. Pocukrime, rozpustime na tom platky masla a posypeme skoricou. Nakolko je tam uz sol a aj to maslo je v podstate slane, musime pouzit dost cukru, aby to bolo jedle. Takze vysledok nie je nic moc. Ale lepsie ako zostat hladny.

Welcome! Today we have a very typical Norwegian food again. Especially in the winter months. Risgrøt - Rice porridge. This food is often connected with Christmas period and the Christmas elves are usually displayed with a bowl full of risgrøt. This food is quite easy to prepare. 2 dcl of rice porridge ( not rice - here it is sold in special packages) are mixed with 4 dcl of milk over the heat. We wait until it becomes partially solid. We add salt. The pot is placed in the warm oven and let there in 8 hours. Than it is ready to serve. We add sugar, melt the butter and add cinammon. Because of butter and salt we have to use quite a lot of sugar to make it edible. But it is not so bad.

Vianoce, Vianoce... - Christmas, Christmas...

Tak sa nam pomaly blizi najkrajsie obdobie roka. A ja mam moznost konecne vyskusat "zahranicne Vianoce". Co som sa informoval, tak to bude trocha rozdiel. Ale o tom napisem neskor. V skole sa mi zda, ze nam vsetci teraz davaju pisat pisomky a robit ulohy. Vsak ked sa uz blizia Vianoce...:-) V pondelok sme boli so skolou na divadelnom predstaveni v miestnom kine. Dvaja mladi herci a jedna mlada herecka, ktory su ochotnickymi hercami, si pripravilo asi hodinovu hru o maturite, alkohole a drogach. Bolo to celkom zabavne. A aj herci boli vynikajuci na to, ze nie su profesionali. Vecer som si bol po dlhom case opat zaplavat. Bolo celkom malo ludi ( teda skor malych deti), takze bolo celkom fajn. Inac sa cely tyzden niesol v znameni velkej kosy. Mali sme tu tak v priemere -16 pocas dna. Zaujimave, ze hore na vrchu bolo plus. A vseobecne teplejsie ako v doline, ci uz bolo svetlo alebo tma. Vsetko je tu naopak.... V utorok sme pisali pisomku z matiky. Vlastne ono to bolo take trocha zaujimave, lebo sme mali rozoberat ako formulovat otazky v prieskume, aby neboli zavadzajuce. A este sme mali podla statistiky spravit zopar grafov do Excelu. Na tom som troska pohorel, lebo nie vsetky sme na hodinach prebrali, ale uz aspon teraz viem. V stredu som po skole ako zvycajne siel na snowboard. Krasne pocasie sa stale drzalo. Len bola zima. Ale clovek sa tu na tych kopach zjazdoviek moze vazne prebavit. Do Vianoc by malo byt otvorene uplne vsetko. V stvrtok sme na sociologii pozerali jeden norsky film z 90. rokov. To bolo oblecenie a ucesy:-P. Ked si trocha zaspominam, tak to nebol az taky rozdiel oproti Slovensku. Je to zvlastne. Som zvedavy, co budeme nosit o dalsich 10 rokov:-). Po skole som si spravil turu na bezkach, stale v krasnom pocasi. Na nasledujuci den sme hrali poker u Håvarda. Bolo nas asi 8, takze sme sa ledva zmestili za stol. V sobotu som chcel ist na lyze, ale nakolko som nachladnuty, tak som sa to rozhodol radsej oddychom a cajikom vyliecit. Bolo to tazke sediet len tak doma, ked z okna vidim svahy zaliate slnkom:-(. Poobede sme isli opat vyskusat lad. Uz je to skoro cele zamrznute. Treba len odhrabat sneh. Vecer boli Eva s Johnom pozvani na party. Ja som si pozrel Walk the line a siel spat. Bol som rozhodnuty, ze v nedelu musim ist na snowboard. Hrdlo sa uz zlepsilo. Dufam ze sa to rychlo dolieci. Na druhy den sme na svah isli az okolo 13:00, nakolko sa dospavala oslava:-) Ale nevadi. Stravil som asi 2 hodiny na svahu. Uz je skoro vsetko pootvarane, tak som vyskusal nove zjazdovky. Z niektorych bol krasny vyhlad na okolie. Vsade len les. Po navrate sme si pozreli finale majstrovstiev sveta v hadzanej, kde Norki prehrali s Ruskami. A zajtra do skoly. Aka smola ze uz vo stvrtok mame prazdniny:-)

The most beautiful period of the year is approaching. And I have eventually the opportunity to try out "Christmas abroad". It will be a small difference but I will write more about it 9 days later. It looks like all the teachers at school woke up and began to give us homeworks:-) On monday we were with the whole school in the theater. To young actors and one young actress prepared for us a play about high school graduation, alcohol and drugs. It was quite funny. And they were good as well, taking into account that they were not professionals. In the evening I went swimming after a long time. There were not many people (actually better said: not many young children) so it was quite fine. The whole week was very cold. Average temperature - 16. It is strange, that the temperature on the top of the mountain was above zero. The nature is crazy. ... On tuesday we wrote a math exam. I blew making graphs in Excel but otherwise it was fine. Now I learned it:-) On wednesday I went snowboarding as usually. The weather was great so I really enjoyed myself. The same next day by cross-country skiing. By the way, on thursday we were watching a film from the 90's on the sociology. What for clothes and hair styles! The fashion is changing really quickly. I am looking forward to find out what we are going to wear ten years ago:-P Friday evening was poker evening by Håvard. We were maybe 8, so it was hard to find enough place around the table:-) I wanted to go snowboarding on the next day but I have a flu. So I decided that it would be better to stay home. It was difficult when I saw the slopes bathing in sun rays. In the afternoon we went to check the ice on the river. It looks quite fine now. Pity I do not have ice-skates:-(. In the evening Eva and John were invited to one party. I just watched Walk the line and went to sleep. I decided that on the next day I have to ski. Throat got a bit better. I hope I can get rid of the flu soon. We went to ski at 13:00. So it was not very long time. But I enjoyed it. The view from some slopes was magnificient. Forrest everywhere around. Almost every slope is now opened, so we can really enjoy the winter. After the arrival home we watched the final of the handball world cup. Norwegian girls lost against Russian girls. Yes, tomorrow back to school. What a pity that holidays begin on thursday:-)

Tu pridavam este prve video a druhe video z korculovania v Osle.

Here are the two videos from ice-skating in Oslo.

Et lite kikk i det norske kjøkkenet --- del 6

Tak tu mame opat medisterkaker, len na trocha iny sposob. Podla mna lepsi a chutnejsi. S cervenou kapustou

Medisterkaker again, just a bit different. I think this combination is much tastier. With red sauerkraut.

Tak takto nejako vyzera rokovacia sala Stortingetu

This is how the meeting room of Stortinget looks like

Oslo a tyzden potom --- Oslo and the week after

Ja viem ze to flakam s tou pravidelnostou prispevkov, ale mali sme tu trocha perno v poslednom case. Minuly pondelok sme s triedou isli do Osla. Bolo to take spojenie exkurzii pre hodiny Media a komunikacia, a Norstina, spojene s triednym vyletom:-) Odchadzali sme uz o 5:30 z Trysilu a o 9:05 sme dorazili do Osla. Nebol tam ziadny sneh a posobilo to zrazu dost skaredo:-P. Najprv sme isli do NRK - co je statny rozhlas aj televizia - nieco ako STV a Slovensky rozhlas v jednom. Tu sme boli asi tristvrte hodiny v niecom ako zabavna sekcia, kde si sa mohol postavit pred kamery a robit predpoved pocasia, zatial co ostatni ta sledovali na obrazovke:-D Potom sme sa stretli so sprievodkynou, ktora nas prevadzala jednotlivymi miestnostami, ateliermi, studiami, kostymarnou. Dozvedeli sme sa vselico zaujimaveho. Napriklad ze pri nahravani programu tam stoji vzdy jeden clovek, co obecenstvu ukazuje, kedy maju tlieskat. Skoro ako v Shrekovi 1 :-P A ze tie reflektory a vsetko spotrebuju v jednom studiu asi tolko elektriky ako 7tisicove mestecko. Potom sme mali rozchod. Podaktori sme sa sli najest do Burger Kingu (ten je oblubeny na skolskych vyletoch:-)) a sli pozriet do kina, ci sa uz daju kupit listky na vecerne predstavenie, kam sme mali s triedou ist. Este vsak bolo zatvorene. Tak sme sli smerom do centra a co vidime... klzisko. Tak ze co budeme robit, vsak si pozicajme korcule. Bola to sranda, lebo nikto z nas nad korculami nemal uplnu kontrolu:-P. Prisli za nami dokonca novinari z Aftenposten - hadam najvacsich norskych novin, ktori porobili fotky jednej spoluziacky a spoluziaka a na druhy den uz bol o klzisku clanok v novinach. Rozhodne sme sa zhodli na tom, ze to bola sranda. Potom sme si este sli sadnut do kaviarne a kusok pred 17:00 sme uz cela trieda boli nastupeni pred Stortingetom, norskym parlamentom, kde sme mali dohodnutu prehliadku. Papalasi rokuju od 10:00 do 16:00 a potom od 18:00 do 20:00, takze sme si mohli pozriet aj rokovaciu salu. Stortinget sa sklada z dvoch sal. Prva je lagtinget, kde sa prerokuvaju navrhy, kym sa posunu dalej do stortingetu. Stortinget sa sklada zo 169 kresiel, ktore su na zaklade volieb rozdelene medzi jednotlive strany a zasadaci poriadok je robeny aj podla okresov. Vsetko je tam z dreva a je to trocha mensie ako slovensky parlament. Potom nas posadili do takej miniatury stortingetu a ukazali nam film o dolezitosti volit. Nasledne sme dostali osie hniezda a flasku Coca coly zadarmo. A ani za prehliadku sme nemuseli platit. To je krajina:-P Z tadialto sme sa uz ponahlali do kina, kde sme si pozreli Beowulfa. Nakolko sme na norstine preberali rodove sagy a legendy, tak sa to celkom hodilo. Cely film bol velmi kvalitna animovany. Boli tam sice take zapachy Hollywoodu, ale inac to bolo celkom dobre, ked sa clovek naladi na rozpravku a neocakava nic realne... Po filme sme mali este par minut volna. O 21:50 sme nasadli na autobus a o 1:00 sme boli v Trysile. Bol to uplne super vylet. Lepsie ako cely tyzden v Uddevalle - medzi Svedmi:-P (viem, uz chytam norske protisvedske myslienky, ale vy neviete co su tam za ludia, aj ked sa nepatri generalizovat). Na druhy den v skole sme boli polomrtvi:-D a ucitelia z nas vela nevytazili, vlastne uz po zbytok tyzdna:-). V stredu sme mali celodennu skusku z norstiny. Mali sme si vybrat jednu z troch tem a napisat o tom priblizne 2 strany. Tak som si vybral vyhody a nevyhody narodnej a medzinarodnej spoluprace medzi politickymi stranami a statmi. Zacali sme v stredu a mali sme to dorucit tento utorok. Som rad, ze to uz mam za sebou. Ale aspon som sa dozvedel mnoho o EU. Po skole som isiel na svah. Po slnecnom utorku sa nam zamracilo a oteplilo, co znamenalo, ze naprsalo a zamrzlo:-) Bol som cely mokry, takze ma to vobec nebavilo a skoncil som skor. Vecer sme boli pozvani k Johnovej mame na veceru. Mali sme uz taku predvianocnu atmosferu a pojedli sme vselijake dobroty... Vo stvrtok som uz ako zvycajne isiel na bezky. Cestou som stretol jedneho Sveda, ktoremu som celkom nerozumel, takze neviem ci som mu odpovedal to co chcel. Ak sa ma vobec nieco pytal, alebo mi len oznamoval:-) Teraz si bude mysliet, ze Nori su sprosti a nerozumeju po svedsky. Robim to teda peknu vizitku krajine:D V piatok sme uz konecne dostali na pocitace internetovy slovnik - spanielsky,nemecky,anglicky, francuzsky, norske synonyma... Parada. Clovek si otvori internetovu stranku, podrzi mys nad jednym slovom a ono ti ho prelozi. Skoda ze mi na mojom pocitaci nefunguje. Takze teraz mi momentalne vymazavaju cely pocitac a potom mi to uz mozno pojde. V sobotu bolo krasne pocasie, tak som isiel s Håvardom a Elisou na svahy. Otvorili nam uz spojenie Skihytta - Turistsenteret a Turistsenteret - Fageråsen. Ked otvoria uz aj Fageråsen - Skihytta bude sa dat chodit dookola celeho kopca. Bolo trocha dost ladu, ale svietilo slniecko, takze to bolo super. Na konci dna som isiel do pozicovni lyzi, kde som si dal nabrusit hrany a navoskovat snowboard, lebo ma hrany celkom nedrzali. Zvysok dna a aj vacsinu nedele som pracoval na tej ulohe na norstinu. Poobede sme boli cela rodina pozriet, ako to vyzera s ladom na rieke. Nasli sme jedno rameno, kde je lad celkom hruby, takze sa mozno pojde korculovat niekedy:-) Vecer (to znamena asi 15:30) som isiel vyskusat jednu dalsiu bezkarsku trat, ktora ide okolo jazera, ponad mesto (tam je trat osvetlena) a vracia sa naspat. Vyfasoval som svetielko na hlavu:-D Tomu vsak dosla baterka, takze som posledny usek isiel uplne v tme. Esteze bola dobra stopa a neviedla do jazera, lebo som vazne toho moc nevidel. Vecer som si pozrel Narniu a siel spat.

I know I should write my weekly reports during the weekends but I had much to do during the last days. Last Monday our class went to Oslo. We joined Media and information and Norwegian lesson trips into one. We departed at 5:30 and arrived at Oslo 9:05. There was not any snow there, so it looked a bit ugly:-P Our first goal was to visit NRK - the Norwegian national TV and radio station. We were maybe 45 minutes in one entertaining section, where you could stand in front of cameras and make weather forecast while the others were watching you on TV:-P Then we met the guide who led us through many rooms and studios. We learned many interesting things. For exemple there is always one person who shows the audience when to laugh and clap. Like in Shrek 1:-D And one studio needs so much electrocity as a town with 7000 inhabitants. Then we were free to go. Some of us went to Burger king (very popular on the class trips:-)) and then went to buy the tickets to cinema in the evening. However, it was closed, so we strode towards the city centre. And what we found there? An ice-hockey rink. So we decided to borrow some ice skates. Irt was fun, because none of us could control them very well. Two journalists from Aftenposten - maybe the biggest Norwegian newspapers- and took pictures of two classmates and on the next day there was an article in the newspapers:-) Afterwards we went to one caféteria and then met the rest of the class in front of the Norwegian parliament - Stortinget. Politicians meet from 10 - 16 and 18 - 20, so they had a break. We were guided through the whole building and saw the two meeting rooms. The first one - lagtinget - is smaller. People there just talk about the suggestions and decide whether they should pull it forward to the next room - stortinget - where they vote for or against the reforms and laws. There are 169 politicians and they sit according to political parties and counties. At the end of our guided tour we got a piece of cake and Coca-cola. For free. We did not even pay for the guide. What a country:-) Then we hurried to the cinema to see Beowulf. On the Norwegian lessons we were learning about legends and myths, so we chose the right film:-P It was a brilliant animation. Sometimes bit "hollywoodish" but quite a good film, if you are willing to accept a fairy tale, not reality. After the film we had some minutes free and met first at 21:50 at the bus station. We came home 1:00. It was a perfect trip. Next day we were half-dead:-) Actually we were half -dead for the rest of the week. On wednesday we had a Norwegian exam. We had to write approximately two pages about one of three topics. I chose the advantages and disadvantages of international cooperation. I am happy I have finished. But I learned a loads of things about The Europian union. After the school I went to snowboard. It was raining and it was not fun at all. In the evening my family was invited to dinner by John's mother. We had advent atmosphere and ate many tasty meals. On the next day I went cross-country skiing. i met one Swede and did not quite get what was he saying to me. So I do not know if I answered correctly. Now he will think that Norwegians are stupid and do not understand Swedish:-) On Friday we got finally an internet dictionary - Spanish,English, French, German, Norwegian synonyms... - great. Unfortunately it does not work on my PC, so now they are erasing everything from my computer and trying to install it again. On saturday I was with Håvard and Elisa skiing. Sun was shining, a bit icy slopes but otherwise it was perfect. They opened connections to Skihytta and Fageråsen so now we can enjoy everything. When they open connection Fageråsen-Skihytta, we will be able to ski around the whole mountain. For the rest of the day and Sunday morning I was working on my Norwegian essay. Then we checked the ice in the river. There was one place, where it was quite thick, so maybe we will go ice-skating. In the evening (that means 15:30) I tried a new cross-country path around one lake. I got a small light on the head but the battery went low so in the end I was blind:-) Fortunately the trace was leading me in the correct direction. Later I just watched Narnia and went to sleep.

Chodte sem a kliknite na Årets beste skidag 4.12.. Takto to vyzeralo v utorok. A ja som musel sediet v skole:-(((((((((((( Na druhy den prsalo, bol som cely premoceny a mne na tych sedackovych lanovkach odmrzal zadok.

Click on the link above and then click Årets beste skidag 4.12. This is how it looked like on Tuesday. And I had to be at school:-((((((((((((. On the next day it was raining, I was wet and my buttocks was freezing on the chair lifts

Et lite kikk i det norske kjøkkenet - del 5

Vitajte opat pri mojej kazdotyzdennej relacii. V dnesnom dieli okusime trocha masa. Medisterkaker. Je to nieco ako jedno z najtypickejsich norskych jedal - kjøttkaker - ale v kjøttkakeroch je kvalitnejsie maso. Medisterkaker je vlastne osmazene bravcove maso. Mozme kupit uz polotovar, alebo kupit nadobu s bravcovym masom a vytvorit taketo masove gulky, ktore oprazime na panvici. Dnes mame ako prilohu zemiaky, brusnice a hrachova kasa. A ziadna biela omacka dnes:-D. Dnes mame hnedu omacku, ktora sa da lahko vytvorit, len som uz zabudol ako. Vysledok je menej chrumkavejsi ako nase fasirky ale je to celkom dobre jedlo.

Welcome again. Today we will taste a bit of meat. Medisterkaker. It is something like one of the most known Norwegian foods - kjøttkaker - but in Medisterkaker is not the meat of such a high quality. We can buy them already prepared or buy a box with pork meat, form these balls and fry them on the pan. Potatoes, cranberries and peas porridge are quite tasteful to it. And we do not have any white sauce today:-D Today we have a brown sauce which is easy to make but I do not remember how. The result is a decent, tasty meat.

A mame tu advent ---- Advent has come

Tak uz som tu 3 a pol mesiaca a ubehlo to ani neviem ako. Na norstine teraz preberame norsku mytologiu. Takze su to basne pisane dost tazkou norstinou a mozem si domyslat, co tym chcel autor povedat. To je ako keby nejaky Nor prisiel na Slovensko a po troch mesiacoch mu dali citat Hviezdoslava. Uplne to iste. Ale potom sa to zanalyzuje, takze aspon nieco o tom vzdy viem. Na anglictine sme ucitelke navraveli, ze nam na minulej hodine nesiel spustit Sicko, tak sme to zacali pozerat odznova a dopozerali v piatok. Sme my to hrozne deti:-P. Na nemcine sme dostali naspat opravene slohy o Nemecku. Moj bol sice najlepsi a najdlhsi, ale s takymi chybami. A na druhy den sme robili kratke rozhovory po nemecky a to bolo z mojej strany tiez take koktanie. Ja len dufam, ze sa to obnovi, lebo ak nie...
V stredu sme mali tzv. heldagsprøve z anglictiny. To znamena, ze sme cely den pisali pisomku. Vlastne len styri hodiny. Ale bolo to v pohode. V prvom cviceni sme mali poprehadzovat vety do suvisleho odseku a v druhom cviceni napisat nieco o jednom trojstranovom pribehu. Potom som ako obvykle isiel na svah. Zacal som skusat 180stupnove otocky, ale zatial sa mi to podarilo ustat iba raz. Je to tazke ,ked clovek nevie jazdit na obe strany. Vo stvrtok nam odpadol dejepis, takze som mohol ist na bezky skor. Dost snezilo, stopu nebolo poriadne vidiet a cele to bolo nespevnene. Tak som sa na to pochvili vykaslal a siel som radsej na snowboard. Mal som trocha povolene vyazanie, ale v pozicovni lyzi mi to za par minut opravili a uplne zadarmo:-) Toto je teda krajina. V piatok sme na telesnej mali temu - sila - vydrz. Ucitel rozostavil asi 8 stanovisk. Tocili sme sa okolo nich a na kazdom sme zostali 40 sekund, potom 20 sekund pauza a na dalsie stanovisko. Boli to vsetko dobre cvicenia a uplne bez ciniek. Skoro sme pri tom sice duse vypustili, ale potom to bolo uz fajn. Poobede bolo zahajenie adventu v centre mesta. Je to tu kazdorocna udalost. Minuly rok tu mali dost malo snehu a prsalo, ale tento rok bolo prijemne, kopa snehu a posnezovalo. Prava vianocna atmosfera. Tu je tradicia vianocneho skriatka - tzv. julenisse, ktory rozdava darceky. Vyzera rovnako ako Mikulas, ale je hrozne seredny v tvari. Ani sa necudujem, ze sa ho mnohi bali, ked boli mali. Vyzera ako ten gnom z Gringottbanky odety do mikulasskeho kostymu. No ale spat teraz. Takze sa kazdorocne organizuje faklovy pochod od KIWI obchodu cez centrum az k miestu, kde stoji stromcek. Kazdy, kto chce, si moze kupit faklu a pochodovat. Tento rok tam bolo hadam aj dobrych 50 ludi, na cele s konom, ktory tahal sane plne "malych vianocnych skriatkov". Pri stromceku hral mensi orchester koledy, predaval sa glogg (nieco ako varene vino, len bez alkoholu, a je to teple a sladke a neda sa to pit:-)) Po tom, co sa zapalil stromcek (nie, fakle sa na to nepouzili:P) rozdavali skriatkovia detom balicky s cukrikmi a mandarinkami - mandarinky musia byt - to je zvyk. Tak sme sa tam nakoniec viaceri starsi privtreli a dostali sme tiez:-) Na druhy den nam stale snezilo - neprestajne. Tak som si povedal, ze ja domacim ukazem, ze na odhrabavanie snehu nemusim mat frezu. Mame obrovsku terasu, na ktorej bolo asi dobreho pol metra snehu, ktory bol naspodu primrznuty. Takze som sa asi po 2 hodinach na to vykaslal a opat som domacej potvrdil, ze som tvrdohlavy ako baran:-D Poobede sme sa zisli asi 6 na svahu. Prisla aj jedna studentka z USA, ktora je na rok v Hamare. Postupne sme sa rozdelili na dve skupinky - jedna lyzovala a jedna jedla. Vecer som bol pozvany na party. Boli sme tam asi 7mi a bolo fajn spoznat zopar novych ludi. Domov nas odviezla mama jednej spoluziacky o druhej rano. To je ochotna mama:-P V nedelu som saprebudil asi o pol desiatej, dal som si hemendex a siel na bezky, zatial co ostatni sa lyzovali. Bolo krasne pocasie - nefukalo, svietilo slnko, stopa bola idealna. Po trojdnovom snezeni spristupnili uz dalsiu cast trasy, takze som mohol ist dalej - do krajiny este nepreskumanej:-) Je to skoro take, ako ked hras golf na novom ihrisku. Nevies co ta caka za najblizsim rohom:-) Nanestastie som sa musel otocit, lebo som nemal jedlo. A bez jedla ani na krok:-) Kym som sa vratil naspat, tak som bol uz dost hladny. V lyziarkej chate som stretol Tomasa, ktoreho na vikend prisla navstivit rodina z Ceska. Bolo to pre neho dost velke prekvapenie:-) Vsetci sme o tom vedeli uz vopred, ale on ze vraj skoro skolaboval, ked otvoril dvere:-P. Vecer som tam teda zasiel na navstevu a zablahozelal k 40inam. Konecne som si vyskusal aj klavir. Este som vsetko nezabudol, ale nebolo to ako za starych casov. Kusok po desiatej som sa s nimi rozlucil a siel sa domov vyspat. Na druhy den sa odchadzalo o 5:30 do Osla.
P.S.: Ako vidite, mal som tu troska naponahlo, takze na blog nevydal cas :-)

I am here now 3,5 months and it went very quickly. On Norwegian lessons we read Norwegian mythology. Everything is written in very difficult language and I can just assume, what is the meaning. Fortunately we analyze it afterwards so I know something about it. On English we said to our teacher, that we were not able to watch Sicko on the last lesson because of the projector, so we watched the first part once again. We are terrible kids, I know:-P On German lessons we got back essays about Germany. Mine was the best but with such mistakes... On the next day we should make a dialogue and it was not any fluent German from my side. I just hope it will refresh, when I come back home.
On wednesday we wrote an exam from English - heldagsprøve. It means that we were writing the whole day. Actually only 4 lessons. But it was OK. In the first excercise we had to organize the sentences into a paragraph and explain why. In the second excercise there was a short story and we were supposed to write about it - plot, setting, topic... Then I went as usually to snowboard. On thursday I went nordic-skiing. It was snowing and the trace was very bad. So I gave it up after a while and switched to snowboard. I had a small problem with binding (I am not sure if it is the right English word) but in the ski shop they repared it in a moment and GRATIS. What a cool land this is:-)On friday we had a topic - strength - on PE. The teacher showed us maybe 8 different excercises. There were 8 different places and we were rotating around them. 40 seconds with one excercise then 20 seconds break and then another one. In the evening there was the celebration of the beginning of advent. It is an annual celebration. Last year there was no snow and it was raining. Now we had a beautiful Christmas atmosphere. In Norway is the Christmas elf very popular - julenisse, who hands out the presents. He looks like Santa Claus but is uglier. Looks like the gnome from Gringott bank in Harry Potter:-) Now I understand why some of the kids were scared of him when they were small. There was a conduct with torches going from KIWI shop to the city centre where the Christmas tree was about to be lighted. Everybody who wants can buy a torch and take part. This year it was quite big, maybe 50 people. There was a horse dragging sleigh with "small Christmas elves". There was a small orchestra playing by the tree, glogg (something like the slovakian cooked wine but without alcohol, very sweet, disgusting to drink:-P) was being sold. After lighting the tree handed the Christmas elves small packages with goodies and mandarines to the children. I got one too, although I am a bit old for it:-P. It was snowing on saturday. I decided to show my new family that I do not need machines to shovel the snow away. So I started to get rid of 0,5 m snow. But after two hours I gave up and once again showed proof of my stubbornness. In the afternoon maybe 6 of us from the school met in the skiing centre. One student from USA, who is studying in Hamar this year, came as well. We divided gradually into two groups - eating group and skiing group. In the evening I was invited to a party. There were maybe 7 of us and it was great to get to know with new people. We were driven home by my classmate's mom at 2 am. What an astonishing mother:-D. On sunday I got up at 9:30, ate hamandeggs and went to cross-country skiing, whereas the others went skiing. The weather was beautiful - no wind, sun, trace in the best condition. They opened new paths so I could go longer. However, I was quite hungry and did not have anything to eat so I had to come back after a while. In the ski pub I met with Thomas, who had a visit from Czech republic. It was a surprise for him but everybody else had known about it before. SO in the evening I went to visit him and congratulate to 40th birthday. I tried out piano after a couple of months. It used to be better when I practiced:-P. At 22:00 I went home to get some sleep because we were departing to Oslo at 5:30 next morning.

Trysilfjellet

Tak aby som tu to troska vsetko zosumarizoval, isiel som na stranku Skistaru, ktory vlastni vleky v Trysile a vyhrabal zopar faktov. Nakolko skoro vsetci, co toto citate, viete po anglicky, nechavam to tento krat bez prekladu (viem, som lenivy:-P):

Pre velke ohlasy od nasich divakov ( vlastne iba jedneho divaka) sa vraciam uz vo stvrtom dieli Maleho pohladu do norskej kuchyne. Nooo, dnes tu mame fiskekaker - rybie karbanatky. Konzistenciu je to rovnake ako fiskeboller, ale ma to iny tvar a je to osmazene. Opat mame, na prekvapenie, bielu omacku:-D. Vyborna je k jedlu postruhana mrkva. To vsetko posypeme kari korenim. Fiskekaker bohuzial v zahranici nekupite. Ale aj tak prajem dobru chut!

I am back here with the 4th part of A small glance into the Norwegian kitchen after some positive responds from my audience. Well, today we have fiskekaker - fish schnitzels. It has the same structure as fiskeboller, but it is fried. Then we have white sauce, surprisingly:-). Very good to it is grated carrot. After that we just sprinkle some condiment over it. You can get fiskekaker only in Norway but despite of it - Bon appetit!

E. Szedely: "Lyzovat, lyzovat, lyzovat ..."----- "Ski, ski, ski..."

Tak sme sa opat prehupli do dalsieho tyzdna. V podstate sa nic velmi velmi zaujimaveho neudialo. Cely tyzden sme na sociologii nerobili nic ine, ako pisali analyzu filmu, ktory sme pozerali minuly piatok. Dostali sme asi 6 otazok a mali sme na ne napisat odpovede. V priemere sa napisali asi 4 A4. Vsetci sme boli cely happy, ked sme to uz dokoncili:-) Inac som zistil, ze mame uplne super francuzstinara. Stanovi termin ukoncenia ulohy, a potom to posuva kvoli tomu, ze niektory to este nemaju:-) To je aky liberalizmus. Podaktori profesori by ti dali rovno 6 a este aj nakricali na teba, ze?:-) Pozname mnohi. V stredu som zo skoly isiel rovno na snowboard. Bola dost hmla, ale na to som si tu uz zvykol. Cez tyzden sa vzdy dobre lyzuje, lebo je malo ludi. A vo stvrtok som isiel zo skoly na bezky:-) Je to uplne super sport. Skoro taky nakazlivy ako golf. Je tu dost bezkarskych trati, ale zatial su otvorene len niektore. Tak som si zobral cestu popri golfovom ihrisku a okolo hory. Isiel som asi 1,5 hodiny, ked som narazil na krizovatku, kde uz stopa nepokracovala. Ale uz sa tesim, ked sa bude dat prejst hora dookola na bezkach. Inac cestou tam som prechadzal okolo 2 karavanov, nikto naokolo, zamracene, oproti karavanom tram na dvoch pilieroch so spagatmi na vesanie a pod tym zamrznuta sobia hlava... Uplna hororova atmosfera:-O. V piatok sme pozerali na anglictine novy film od Micheala Moora - Sicko. Uplna pecka, aj ked sme to este nedopozerali. Tento krat si na musku zobral americke poistovacie spolocnosti, ktore na poistencoch zarabaju hrozne peniaze, ale najdu si kazdu moznu vyhovorku, aby sa vyhli zaplateniu zdravotnickej starostlivosti, ked to potrebujes. O tomto som vobec nevedel. Cloveka aj prejde chut vobec chciet ist do USA. Poobede som sa troska povenoval francuzstine a nemcine a vecer pozrel Ciernych baronov, ktorych som si pozical od Tomasa, ked som u neho bol naposledy na navsteve. V sobotu som bol uz o 9ej na svahu spolu so spoluziakom Håvardom. Zvykol sutazne jazdit zjazd, kym si na majstrovstvach Norska nezlomil nohu. Ked som tu tak pozoroval trenovat narodne timy Talianov a Svedov, ktory sem chodia na zaciatku sezony trenovat, tak zlomit si nohu v takej rychlosti nie je vobec tazke. Bolo inac super pocasie, krasne upravene zjazdovky a malo ludi. Poobede sa pocasie zhorsilo a pribudlo ludi. Ku koncu sa k nam pripojila aj spoluziacka Eliza, kotra dostala pracu na predaji listkov. Kazdopadne sme napriek zhorsenemu pocasiu vydrzali az do konca. Zajtra snad pojdem na bezky a potom opat do skoly

And we have a new week, again. Nothing very very interesting has happened. On sociology we analyzed a film whole week. We got 6 questions and it tokk maybe 4 A4 to answer all of them. We were all realy happy when we were finished. And I found out, that our French teacher is very good!:-) He said we should had been finished with one task by Tuesday, but he changed the date two times, because some students did not manage it by then. What a democracy:-) On wednesday I went on my snowboard right after school. It is always great to snowboard sometimes from monday to friday, because there aren't many people there. It was misty, but it is something I have already got used to:-) On Thursady I went cross - country skiing. (Thanx Betty) There aren't all paths opened yet, but some of them already are. There is one, which leads round the whole mountain. So I took that and after hour and a half I came to crossing and I couldn't proceed, because there was no trace for ski. So I svivelled and took the same way back. On friday we were watching Sicko - the new film from Michael Moore. He aimed on the health system in USA. Very good film. I didn't know about this problem before. In the afternoon I devoted some time to French and German and afterwards watched the Czech film The black barons, which I rented from Thomas on my last visit there. ON saturday I was riding down the ski slopes already at 9 o'clock. I went with my classmate Håvard. He used to ski competitively, but then he has broken leg, so he had to quit. As I saw the national teams of Italy and Sweden, which practice here, it is quite easy to break a bone in that speed:-) The weather was perfect in the morning, good snow conditions, no people. Then people came and weather got worse, but we stayed there til the last minute:-) Our classmate Eliza joined us later. Tomorrow I hope to go cross-country skiing and than back to school

Ski in weekend

Tak som sa konecne dockal prveho vikendu s otvorenymi zjazdovkami. Rozhodli sme sa preto byt trocha na vzduchu. Atleho sme vysadili na vleky a ja s Evou som isiel na bezky. Po prvy krat v zivote. To tak aj vyzeralo:-) Ked ma clovek zrazu volnu patu, je to nezvyk. Maju tu tzv. Trysil Knut Arenu, co je vlastne biatlonova arena. My sme vsak len nasledovali cestu cez golfove hrisko. Je to vynikajuci sport. Bezky, plavanie a tanec su tri sporty najprospesnejsie telu, pri ktorych zapajas vacsinu svalov na tele. Ked ma clovek stopu, po ktorej sa da ist a chyti rytmus, tak je to celkom zabava. Snad sa to naucim za ten rok:-) Sezona konci az niekedy koncom aprila. Casu dost. Na druhy den sme isli do sportshopu vo Fageråsene, co je jedno stredisko v ramci Trysil fjelletu. Wow. Dajte mi plnu kreditku a za pol hodinu je vyprazdnena:-) Taky vyber a tolko kvalitnych veci. Ked budu jarne zlavy, tak sa tam musim zastavit. Potom ma Eva vysadila pri Velkomstsentre a isiel som na snowboard. Bolo otvorenych uz viac svahov, takze som preskumal viac zjazdoviek. Jedina neprijemna vec bola hmla. Dole nic, hore nic ale v strede kopca sa to drzalo. Bol som na najvyssom vlekovom stanovisku, kde svietilo slnko a obloha bola bez oblaciku. Podo mnou bolo len more hmly. Obrazky ukazem neskor. Dost tam vsak fukalo, takze som sa tam uz nevratil. Snehove podmienky boli vsak vynikajuce. O tretej ma prisiel vyzdvihnut John. Zjedol som zvysok lasagni a pustil sa do pisania blogu. Ozvem sa opat o tyzden.

It was the first weekend with opened ski slopes. So we decided to spend it outdoors. We dropped Atle off by the lifts and me and Eva went for longrun ski ( I do not know if it's the right english expression but I hope you have got what I am writing about) For the first time in my life:-) Well, it was funny. I fell only two times:-) It is a very strange feeling - suddenly with a free heel. But if you have a track and find the rhythm it is great. Long run, swimming and dancing are three sports which are best for our body. I hope I manage to learn this sport during the winter. I have enough time. The season ends at the end of april. On Sunday we went to a sportshop in Fageråsen - skiing centre which is a part of Trysil fjellet. Wow. Give me a full credit card and I will empty it in an hour. There was a mass of goods and with astonishing quality. I will wait to spring for discounts:-) After that Eva dropped me off by Velkomstsenteret and I went to snowboard. It was misty and it was hard to see something but on the top the sun was shining and you could see a sea of mist below you. But the wind blew quite hard so I didn't return there anymore. At 3 o'clock John came to pick me up. I had eaten up lasagne and started to write blog. I'll be back next week.

Spark a spark z pohladu vodica. Spark and spark from the "driver's" view

A tu reportaz z otvaracieho vikendu. Mnohe firmy poziciavali svoje najnovsie vyrobky a ludia testovali lyze a snowboardy..

Tu je link na video z vleku, ktory vedie popri zjazdovke Sindra. Bolo sice troska zamracene, ale lyzovalo sa dobre.

Yammmiiiii. Tak dnes tu mame vazne lahodku. Sobie karbanatky so zemiakmi a brusnicami. Osmazime sobie karbanatky spolu s cibulou a sampinonmi a uvarime zemiaky. Vyborna je k tomu biela omacka (hvit saus), do ktorej sa primiesa zelenina, hlavne mrkva. Vysledok je delikatny. Zretelna chut. Potesenie pre chutove pohariky.

Yamiiiii. Today we have a delicious meal. Moose schnitzel with potatoes and cranberry jam. We fry pieces of moose meat with champignons and onion and cook potatoes. The white sauce (hvit saus) is very good to it - mixed with vegetable, carrot most of all. The result is delicious. Very distinct flavour. Joy for our senses.

Sezon zacala :-D ---- The season has begun :-D

Tak nam tento tyzden konecne zacala sezona. Nieco take ako nuda uz nehrozi. Navyse sa nam to uz v skole trocha rozbehla. Cize je to uz ako taky normal na nasom prievidzskom gymnaziu:-). V pondelok a utorok som isiel do skoly na sparku. Je to tu taky dopravny prostriedok. Fotku dorucim zanedlho. Tazke popisat to, ale je to nieco ako sane, len stojis na dvoch zeleznych tyciach, ktore sa klzu po lade. Preto tu neposypavaju chodniky... Prvy den som sa skoro vykotil v jednej zatacke, ktora ide dolu z kopca a v utorok som sa uz vykotil. Radsej sa budem spoliehat na moje nohy ako dopravny prostriedok:-) V stredu sme mali 4hodinovku norstiny, kde sme pisali analyzu filmy UNO. A potom hned na cerstvo otvoreny kopec. Eva mi rano zobrala so sebou snowboard, takze som sa u nej v praci prezliekol, zobral snowboard a siel:-) Zatial mali otvorene len 2 vleky a 2 kopce. Postupne to budu otvarat vsetko. Zvycajne byva po Vianociach uz vsetko otvorene. Sedackou hore a potom ma cakala krasna zjazdovka asi kilometrova. Troska to obmedzoval zensky narodny taliansky zjazdovy tim, ktory sem prisiel na sustredenie, ale inac to bola dobra lyzovacka. Chcel som ist aj vo stvrtok, ale piatok sme pisali pisomku z dejepisu, takze by to nebol dobry napad. Maju hrozne pisomky:-) Nemuseli sme napisat ani jeden rok, ale pisali sme asi 45 minut a zapisal som vyse 2 A4 Troska by sa to zislo skratit. V piatok po skole som isiel hore do sportshopu pozistovat ceny norskych svetrov a z tadial som sa zviezol naspat domov s Evou. Vecer som isiel navstivit Cecha Tomasa s manzelko Ingvild a spytat sa, ci nechyta ceske kanaly, nakolko v sobotu hrame s Cechmi. Prisiel som akurat ked holili ovcu so zenou. Mala len pol roka a nebola zvyknuta na ludi, takze sa dost mykala. Tie ostatne boli uplne salamistky:-) Len sa tak na mna pozeraju, prezuvaju travu a maju nasadeny vyraz mne-je-vsetko-jedno. Potom sme este posedeli pri caji a jablkovom kolaci. Ponukli mi, ze sa im mozem postarat o zvierata, ked niekam odidu a zaplatia mi za to. Maju tri ovce, jedneho kona, 4 male maciatka a jednu macku. Su to velmi mili ludia. Darmo, slovansky vplyv na rodinu:-). Bohuzial maju vsak len cesky novinovy kanal. Nevadi. Aj tak urcite prehrame...

The season has finally begun this week. It will be impossible to be bored. Furthermore, there is quite a lot homework at school. That means it is like average at my school in Prievidza. On monday and tuesday I used spark to get to school. Spark is a transport vehicle. I do not know if it is right to call it vehicle and it is quite hard to describe. I will present a photo soon. On monday I almost fell off it and on Tuesday I feel off it. I will rather trust my legs and walk. On wednesday we wrote the analysis of the movie UNO and after that I went to try out my snowboard for the first time this season. Eva took it to job, so I just changed my clothes there, took snowboard and uiiiiii. They have just two lifts and slopes opened so far but it will get better. Usually they have all slopes opened after Christmas. It was fun. Then Eva gave me a lift home. I wanted to come back also on thursday but I had to learn for history test. It was a strange test. We didn't have to write a single year but wrote for 45 minutes. In the evening I went to visit Czech Tomas with his wife Ingvild. I came when they were cutting a sheep. She wasn't used to people and was jerking a bit but they made it. The other sheep just chewed the grass with expression I-don't-care on their faces.. Then we had tea with apple cake. They are very nice people. Yeah, Slavic influence:-) They offered to pay me if I take care of their animals in case of they will be away. They have a horse, 3 sheep, 4 pussies and one cat. I was interested if they have some Czech TV programs because there is a soccer match between Czech and Slovak republic on saturday. They have just a Czech news programm. But it doesn't matter. We will lose anyway...

Tak som tu opat v druhom dieli relacie Maly pohlad do norskej kuchyni. V minulom dieli som vam predstavil zeleninovu polievku. Teraz vsak prichadza jedno z najznamejsich norskych jedal - fiskeboller - cize rybacie gulky. nedostat ich kupit nikde inde na svete. Su to biele gulky o velkosti stredneho zemiaku, ktore sa skladaju najma z tresky. Maju jemne zelatinovu konzistenciu. Fiskeboller iba prihrejeme v specialne bielej omacke (asi sackova:-)) a podavame so zemiakmi. Obzvlast sa k nim hodi salat z postruhanej mrkvy s hrozienkami a kuskami pomarancov. Dobru chut!

I am here again in the second part of our series A small look into the norwegian kitchen. In the last part I introduced you the vegetable soup. But now comes one of the most typical Norwegian foods - fiskeboller - fishballs. They are small balls of the size of a potato which consist mostly of cod. They are a bit more solid than jelly. We just warm them up in a special white sauce and serve them with potatoes. A salad from raisins, pieces of orange and grated carrot is delicious to it. Bon appetit!

Göteborg po druhy krat ---- Göteborg for the second time

Na druhy den som si hned isiel kupit listok na autobus, aby som sa vyvaroval situacie z piatku. Nalozil som si totiz vak do autobusu a ked som si chcel kupit listok, tak mi povedali, ze to musim ist do kancelarie. Tak som bezal do kancelarie a rozhodol som sa, ze si kupim listok na autobus, ktory odchadza o 15 minut neskor. Tak som si kupil listok a isiel na prislusnu zastavku. Vtom som si ale uvedomil, ze vak mam v druhom autobuse a len tak-tak som ho stihol a zobral som si z tadial vak. Potom som isiel sa prejst popri pobrezi. Zastavil som sa na prehliadku lode a ponorky z druhej svetovej vojny. Bolo tam vazne uplne vsetko. Rozne kajuty s figurinami ludi, kuchyne, sklady zbrani... Nasledne som si dal studeneho lososa so studenym zemiakovym salatom - ze vraj to tam jedia studene,aspon v tejto kombinacii... Inac sa uz nic takeho zaujimaveho neudialo. Dokupil som vianocne darceky, takze mam uz pokoj. Na druhy den som uz iba nasadol na autobus. Po 7 hodinovej ceste som dorazil konecne do Trysilu a unaveny lahol do postele so zelanim: keby som tak mohol mat este jeden den volna....

On the next day I went to buy a return ticket immediately to avoid the situation from friday. I loaded my bag in the bus and went to buy the ticket. But the driver told me to buy it in the office. So I ran to the office and decided to rather take the bus, which goes 15 minutes later. So I bought ticket and went to the platform. There I realized that my bag is in the other bus and I it was actually about to depart when I got there and took my bag. On saturday I went on a tour through a submarine and a ship from WWII. There was everything there: cabins with the figures of crew, kitchens, room with ammunition... Then we ate cold salmon with cold potato salad - they tend to eat it in this way, at least this combination. Otherwise nothing interesting happened. I bought some christmas presents so now I am finished:-). On sunday I just got on the bus and suffered next 7 hours. After the arrival I just collapsed into my bad wishing: If only I had one more day free.

Link na video, ako sa pomaly produkuje sneh a pripravy na sezonu su v plnom prude.

O tom, ako si Trysilcania nevedia sneh odhrabat --- A story about how people in Trysil are unable to shovel the snow away from the streets

My na Slovensku hromzime a nadavame, ked je cesta co i len trosku zladovatela. Vzdy obdivujeme perfektne cesty v Rakusku alebo Nemecku bez kuska ladu. A ked mame zladovately chodnik, tak by si mnohi najradsej pohovorili s majitelom domu, ktory je za svoj kus chodnika zodpovedny. A hlavne ked sa niekam ponahlame, lezie to dost na nervy. Nakolko je Norsko vyspela krajina, ani vo sne by ma nenapadlo, ze su lenivy odhrnat sneh. Aspon v Trysile. Vsak naco.... Tu ide chodnik do kopca, tak to troska posypeme, ale tu je rovina, to netreba. A tak to minuly tyzden vyzeralo tak, ze vychadzal som z domu - smykam sa, idem po chodniku - smykam sa, idem po parkovisku - smykam sa, idem cez skolsky dvor do triedy - smykam sa... Nastastie napadlo dost snehu, takze sa uz teraz tak nesmyka. Cesty su pokryte asi 5cm vrstvou ladu, co mnohi mladi soferi vyuzivaju na to, aby si troska zaslidovali, ked nie su ziadne auta naokolo:-) V pondelok sme na norstine pozerali film UNO. Je to jeden norsky film z kriminalneho prostredia posilovien. Celkom dobry. Tuto stredu piseme z neho analyzu. V stredu sme na francuzstine mali navstevu z ungdomskole. Studenti poslednych rocnikov sa chodia pozerat na jednotlive hodiny na nasej skole a aj podla toho sa rozhoduju, ci budu chciet dalej studovat v Trysile alebo na inej strednej niekde inde. Po skole som si isiel objednat sezonnu kartu. Produkcia snehu uz bezi na plne obratky. Bohuzial ich nevydavaju az do zaciatku sezony. Sezona by mala neoficialne zacat v stredu. Skolu mam do 12:00, takze ihned stadial vyslapem hore do strediska, kupim si kartu a mozem snoubikovat:-D:-D Cestou domov som sa smykol na lade a poriadne si nabil.... Normalne chodit sa tu vazne neda. Vo stvrtok bol poker. So zopar spoluziakmi sme isli do Nybergsundu. Zisli sme sa asi 6 a hrali asi tri hodiny. Konecne som sa to naucil. Ten chalan u ktoreho sme hrali mal normalne kufrik s kartami aj zetonmi, takze je to troska ine, ako ked sa hra o 1korunacky:-)Inac zacinam pomaly chapat tento skolsky system. Na matike sme sa ucili robit grafy a zratavacie tabulky v Exceli a na francuzstine robime prezentaciu v Powerpointe. Urcite uzitocnejsie ako vediet vzorce na rozklad alkenov a co vznika. Po dejepise som isiel hned na stanicu a fiju do Goteborgu - 3,5 hodiny do Osla a dalsie 4 do Goteborgu v preplnenych autobusoch. Nikdy viac. Nastastie som stastne dosiel.

We Slovakians always become mad when we have to drive on an icy road. We are envious of perfect roads in Austria or in Germany. And when there is ice on pavement we wish we could talk with the owner of the house, who is responsible for his part of pavement. It is especially frustrating when you are in a hurry. Norway is a high-developed country and I did not even think of that they do not shovel the snow away. At least not in Trysil. OK, here goes the pavement downwards so we will use a bit of gravel here but here is it quite flat so it is alright.
So the last week it looked like: I am leaving the house sliding, I am walking on the pavament sliding, I am on the parking place sliding, I go from cafeteria through the school yard sliding... Fortunately we got a lot of snow so it is okay now. The roads are covered with ice at least 5 cm thick. This is good for many young drivers, who enjoy to slide with their cars, when there is nobody around... On monday we watched UNO. It is a Norwegian film whose plot is set in the criminal circles in Oslo - in one gym. Quite good. We should analyse it this wednesday. On wednesday we had on French lessons the students from ungdom skole. The students visit our lessons and according to it they decide, whether they want to continue with their education here in Trysil or go somewhere else. After the school I went to the ski centre to buy a season ticket. The season should start on wednesday. However, they will be selling the tickets after the season starts. So I am going to buy it this wednesday right after the school and immediately snowboard. On my way home I became a victim of the ice on the pavement and fell on my..... It is impossible to walk safely:-) Thursday evening was a poker evening. I went with some classmates to Nybergsund and played a bit of poker. Thu guy there had a big set with cards and tokens as well. I finally learned how to play it. I am gradually getting the school system here. On math we learned how to produce graphs and on French we are preparing a presentation in Powerpoint. It is much more useful than to know which element reacts with which and what comes out of the reaction:-) From school I went to the busstation and took direction Goteborg. 3,5 hours to Oslo and 4 hours to Goteborg. Never again. But I eventually made it.

Et lite kikk i det norske kjøkkenet - del 1

Vitam vas pri prvej casti mojho serialu Maly pohlad do norskej kuchyne. Kazdy tyzden (mozno) vam predstavim jedno z mnohych typickych norskych jedal. V premierovej casti uvidite nie sice vylucne norske jedlo, ale Evinu specialitu - grønnsakssuppe - zeleninova polievka. Ako vidite na obrazku - hodte do vriacej vody spekacku, zemiaky, cibulu a nejaku zeleninu co najdete v chladnicke a vyjde vam z toho tato celkom chutna hutna polievka. Ziaden zazrak ale celkom dobra - a hlavne neumela:-)
