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:-)
