Assignment

Whow, here comes another of Nicolette's tremendous posts! In such short notice! I'm impressed with myself.

Today I gave up the job. I think I did the right decision. I THINK. Anyway, I have this week to work and then I am "free to go". I felt a lot of pressure. Not much more I need to explain right here and now. If you want to know about it - ask.

I had one class today. Webdesign. And I must say, it felt awesome! One of the teachers... Well, I didn't get a good feeling from him last time, but that impression changed a bit today. Jolly good I say. And THANK GOD I didn't take him too seriously this time. Which is quite odd since I was (and am) so darn tired I could've fallen asleep right there and then.

For my English C course, I already have one assignment. Or to be more exact: Two - until Friday. We're going to have a Project of our own choice. Just like the Projektarbete we had at high school, where we are supposed to write a paper on it. Last time she wanted us to already have ideas on what to work on. Having a question to be answered and all. And I had no idea whatsoever! All I figured out was that maybe I could write something on migration and/or racism. Since she suggested we'd do something based on our interests. It was either migration/racism or something on video games! And which one sounds more serious?
Either way, she wants us to have written a sketch of our final idea until midnight between Thursday and Friday! I have no clue what I can try to find out with migration!
The two ideas I have so far are:
- Writing how it is to move to a new country, about experiences and such.
- How reporters/journalists portrait immigrants(/emigrants)

If I'd choose the first idea I just might be able to interview my very good friend Nicole who's in Ireland 0:) But I'd need more sources! And preferably in English! Oh gosh, what to do, what to do!

Apart from this, we have this assignment to find an article in News Week and present it to the class - in our own words and in English. Shouldn't be too hard. But the project sure is! I want to have a good idea, since she's going to look it over and have questions on it!

So if anyone have an idea that they'd like to share - comment here or e-mail me!

Ta-ta!

Safety Consult

I feel... That now it's gone an even bigger while since my last post!
What can I say... Now I'm a "säkerhetskonsult" which I don't know the correct translation for... But if I am to translate it I'll say "safety consult". Which basically means that I knock on house and villa doors, in my attempt to book meetings with people to sell them our highly advantageous(here I seriously doubt the abilities of Google's language translator) alarm package.
It's simple: I get paid for each package I sell. If I don't sell anything: I get nothing!

And tomorrow, I've obviously succeeded in booking one of those meetings with my English teacher. With which I'm having my first class on Friday! I really hope that our meeting won't have any negative effect on my grades... But she seemed nice! I'll just have to try to give her an alarm offer she can't refuse! (and I only have one offer available)

Anyway... My employment is not final. Or how you'd put it. It's, as Google express it, a probation. Which means I am employed on a trial until June, and then we'll see if they want me! (or if I want them as employers)
God blast, I want and I NEED a car license.


Oh, and my cell won't recharge. So I can't use the wondrous cell phone I received from Jocke. It's a real shame, it's one of the best I've ever had. But it might just be that I need a new recharger, or have to change batteries. And therefore I'll head down to Onoff tomorrow! :D (or someday sooooooon!)
But 'til then I'll just use some crap, that someone must've decided to call a cellular phone for an unknown reason :) Which basically means that it'll probably weigh about 10kg :)

And with that I bid thee farewell! (for now)
