I’m watching Austin Powers movies tonight. I’m going to bed soon though because I have school tomorrow. Not until 1:15 PM, but still. I need lots of sleep to function and I plan to be at school a bit earlier to have a cup of coffee and relax for a while.
I’ve been doing some maths today and even though I’m having some trouble I manage. I struggled with a number for ages so I took a break from it and called my mom. After I had talked with her for an hour or so I looked at the number again and all the sudden it clicked and I was like I GET IT NOW! I think I’ll manage this course. The difference between now and high school is that I’m really trying now and I won’t give up. I don’t expect do do anything more than barely pass but as long as I pass I’m happy.
Wow, I’m really becoming boring. First I don’t blog for ages and when I finally blog all I write about is school! But it’s such a big deal for me to be back in school. It feels like a new phase of my life. I’m barely managing but I won’t give up. I won’t allow myself to. This is important in so many ways.
I’m still looking for an apartment in Jönköping and Gothenburg but it seems impossible. I found a nice apartment in Gothenburg but more than 3000 other people are interested in it so it’s not likely I stand a chance. Jönköping is a smaller town than Gothenburg but it’s still very hard to find a cheap apartment there. Sweden needs a new Million Programme. The Million Program was a housing project between 1965-1974. In ten years one million apartments and houses were built. Unfortunately many of the houses were boring concrete suburbs but at least people had somewhere to live. If I had to choose between living with my parents in their big house or in my own small apartment in a concrete suburb I’d choose the suburb. Because I’m 25 years old and don’t exactly fancy living with mom and dad. Well at least I do have a nice apartment. Unfortunately in a town I don’t enjoy living in. If I had liked Hultsfred my living situation would have been perfect. My apartment has a central location. You pretty much can’t live more central than I do. And the entire house I live in had a total renovation about six years ago so everything is nice and new. On top of that my living room, hallway and bathroom are blue. I LOVE blue! My apartment is pretty, pretty, pretty. But still situated in Hultsfred.

I am absolutely horrible at math, but it’s happened before that taking a break from a problem and going back to it seems to do the trick. It’s awesome that you’re going back to school
I still live at home with my mother and step father and I’m 22. I also don’t have a car. In a lot of ways I’m still a kid, but I don’t mind living here. My mom has never been a hassle or tried prying into my personal life.
I suck with maths, but I understand how you can stare at something for ages and not get it and then an hour or so look and go ‘Why didn’t I notice that in the first place?’ .. It’s weird.
I sympathise with your living situation, it can be a real pain trying to find a new place to live and really, it sucks to be living somewhere that you don’t want to be. My old suburbe I lived in was atrocious, I sold my car to a single mother across the road (she was like 17) and a week or two later it was set on fire by some crazy person. I couldn’t beleive it. Loved my apartment but the area was dodgy as.
Goodluck finding somewhere new to live.
have you looked at blocket ? pretty much all the people I know including me(who don’t buy apartments) got theirs from blocket. It’s ridiculous how kommunernas bostadssystem works. Just put up an ad or something! Or scan blocket every other hour for apartments and be ready to jump the phone.
Ugh Math always killed me in school. Whatever the fear of Math is called… I totally have it. Yay though for solving it!
Ive been living in an apartment since I was 19. When I was 18-i got married I lived in a Dorm though.. and at my gm’s on the weekends. I would never live with my mom again though. Too many dogs and I just dont like the atmosphere. Goodluck with the hunt!
Yeah that’s what I thought. The word massacre would be good, but I can’t think of anything decent to go with it.
Someone has offered to buy me a domain so I’m just trying to think of a name. But I haven’t told anyone yet because it’s not all sorted, so I thought I’d wait until I actually have the site before I tell anyone. Incase everything changes and I don’t end up with a domain. I seem to have bad luck with sites.
I’ve always been good at maths, but certain teachers just can’t teach me. The last two years I’ve had good teachers so, I’ve done really well.
Good luck finding an apartment!
