Jet lag, what a drag.

oh hey, Borås. . . .

Upwards and onwards with Renblog, now that I have more free time than I know what to do with! I have returned to Borås, more or less in one piece.
Many delays caused by a lost passenger and a lot of snow in TO could not stop the numerous flights from landing me at Landvetter. . . . unfortunately. Being overly positive is overrated!

As I write this as 4pm, whatever traces of the sun that feebly showed up for work today have retreated, and it is essentially pitch black. Essentially, I have not seen the sun since my return to Sweden. In Canada, I was constantly struck by the sunshine, often asking my mom if it's ''always this sunny here?!''

Last night I think I feel asleep by 530 a.m, (after watching the entire 2nd LOTR!), woke up again at 9, slept from 1030-12, forced myself out of bed, then lay on my bed, watching t.v for hours. Got a few groceries (super stoked about these pear-Popsicles) and will now try to prepare for tomorrow's lessons: deux classes de francais, et une classe d'anglais. Will I sleep tonight? Let's hope!

I can't put into words how great it was to be home with my family, friends, Jangles, our hot tub, and general friendliness. I won't harp much on the past, but say I am looking forward to upcoming trips to Paris, the U.K, Germany, Prague and other East-ish European cities, and then a summer at home.
