3 months

Last week was påskeferie (Easter holiday) and first thing I would like to note is Easter is not as big here as it is in Australia, or at least in my family. So I got my Easter egg thing (look at picture below) on Saturday instead of Sunday, because that is the candy day. So in Australia the shops are usually filled with Easter chocolate and sales weeks before, but here you could hardly tell. People aren't as keen on giving masses of amounts of chocolates, so I'm just gunna say Australians must really like chocolate :D I didn't really do anything exciting in the holidays to talk about.

My host family has tried switching to all Norwegian and that lasted for about a day, so now they try to speak it as much as possible. And it isn't due to my part, I think they don't like being able to say anything so just go to English. But I can understand a fair amount, but my speaking still fails, but is improving yay! Along with my speaking supposedly my accent is changing :( I was sitting at a bus stop talking to a friend (in english) and a random old man started talking to us. Then he couldn't figure out where I was from because my accent sounded american and Australian. So I think I'm going to sound really funny when I get back, but I haven't noticed the change. 

It's quite funny now when I watch a t.v show from England or Australia and it shows them driving, cuz i'm like omg they're on the wrong side of the car! But yet when we are driving here I will still have freak out moments thinking we're on the wrong side of the road.

To great shock to everyone, I started running. Well I did for a week and then it was the holidays and I got lazy, but hopefully now school has started I will get back into it. I have made it my mission not to gain exchange weight and go back fit :)
