315 days?! That's almost a year!

Good morning everyone! It is currently 7.37am and I'm on the train to Stockholm. Though everything is peachy now it was a bit of a stressful morning. Jan and Yvonne are away on a trip and Gustav is the most 'never on time' person you will ever meet. So to be safe we ordered a taxi to pick me up at 6.10 so I could catch my 6.40 train to Lund. Well I got up at 5.30 and enjoyed the morning light streaming into my window. I was ready to go and went outside to wait for the taxi...6.15, 6.20, 6.25 no taxi. Last minute, literally, I ran inside to get Gustav and he had 10 minutes to drive me to my train. Let me just say that it's not legally possible to get there in 10 minutes, not even close. And we didn't make it in 10 minutes, it took 11 or 12. But amen for delays in the Swedish train traffic. My train was delayed to 6.45 so I made it with 2 minutes to spare, not exactly how I wanted to start off my morning. But as I said, all is good now. I smoothly made my connection and met up with 4 other exchange students. Oh, why am I going to Stockholm? Well I'm going to the place where we had our On-Arrival camp right when we got to Sweden. But now it's called Re-Entry. It's the first time since August that we all get to meet and gauging on how fun on-arrival was, this will be off the charts!

It kind of just hit me, re-entry. This is one of the first steps in coming home. I have sent home some things with my mom and dad respectively but that just felt like cleaning out my closet. Now things are real. Remember when I would post about being one, two, or four months into this program? Well now it's the one month countdown (well in 2 days). And that is just crazy to me. My dad told me that when I come home I'll have been gone for 315 days. 

Otherwise my week can be summed up in one word: brief. Monday, 1 lesson, Tuesday (TTT) full day, Wednesday 1 test, Thursday 1 lesson, and today I'm traveling. There are only 6 days of school left, spread out into two 3 day weeks.  Everything is winding down. 

PS sorry, no pictures!
