Visa troubles

I guess nothing ever works out how we expect it, definitely when there is a visa involved. So my flight to return home was on January 7 and my visa finishes December 31. I was told by my company just to extend my visa. So off I go to the police station to find out that not only does it cost $300 to extend my visa, the type of visa I'm on may not be accepted to be extended. So there I am awkwardly needing a new flight home, I have been trying to organise this for the past week and hopefully by tomorrow I will have at least a slither of information from my company about what is happening. Though, pretty much I will be flying home before December 31. Therefore I have less than two months and with the latest date being December 31 maximum 54 days left in Norway!

Enough about that. Last weekend my host family, family friends and me went to an apartment even further south than here. The main attraction for going was a swimming place with lots of different indoor pools and such. It was actually really nice I think we spent about 2hrs in the pools. I got time to relax in the sauna and forget everything. Also last weekend on Friday night we had an exchange student night, where al of the current exchange students went over to one the houses and brought a dish from their country. It was really koselig (best way to describe it there isn't really an english equivalent, but something along the lines of comfortable and cozy) and we ate lots of food until my belly hurt.

At the moment I'm not sad to leave Norway I am in an excited mood, but it usually changes day to day The idea of being home back into familiarity, not having to worry about things. I mean I love my host family, but it isn't the same.

On a sad note, I would like to add that the gaining weight on exchange thing that most people experience and I've managed to avoid. May have caught up with me :( I think the problem is that my mind is set to you only have two months left why not? Bad attitude, though I don't really care cuz I only have two months left!!! My last chances of eating all yummies norway has to offer. I just need to exercise more, not sure if that will happen...

Well that's all for now, I would add photo's but they're on my other computer at the moment so next time I will have lots :)
