My place is all nice and clean. I left it a bit messy and came back to it clean. Love my mom.

Oh, hi guys. I'm back from my 5 day trip up to northern Illinois. Lots of fun but now back to reality. Have to do my online class stuff before student teaching starts up in 2 weeks. oO

I am not a good housekeeper (used to do it in college ---except then I got PAID to do it)...and I just have so much to do that by the time I even make a dent I have to go back and do the first stuff again....very depressing. (worked in the dishroom in college as well---so yeah not fond of doing dishes either, not to mention the pruny hands you get and such)

halloween without the pumpkins, sounds like fun

Oh my god, I love america and your ridicilous low taxes, making me able to buy everything I need and want and desire for 70% less money than it will cost in Norway. And I love amazon lol

Omg I always wanted a TokiDoki bag but they cost about 3000kr (that's 500 Dollars) here and in america it's only 148 Dollars.

*dies*

yeah in the us we have ways of making other stuff insanely expensive (and then we have stuff we call insurance to help offset those costs---which also has an insane cost to get in some cases-----)

some things are cheaper in other countries, some are more expensive.

arent colds supposed to end in 2 weeks??? I think someone needs to inform my cold it has overstayed its time and needs to leave (it doesnt seem to be listening to me when I tell it this).

Well, if I'm going to the hospital and I have cancer it's no problem. I don't need to pay anything. That's why Norway wins. If I was in america and needed to go there, I don't know. I'm still wondering how I'm going to figure that out in case something happens ~ However, that leaves me the joy of running to america and buy bunch of shit I don't and do need just cause I get 10 times more for the money

find it online and have it shipped (much cheaper than the airline ticket--and probably less of a hassle as well)....our medical system is pretty bad---and almost all of doctor visits--hospital visits are very expensive (went to my reg doc last month---$136 for an office visit, and my 'insurance' wont cover it, gee glad I have it--NOT!)

so yeah be glad your country has better coverage for sickness and such and just let your fingers do the work

I'm trying to stay healthy. So far so good.

So I was on a roll taking my quizzes and then my professor graded them. So I didn't get the full 10 points for the short answer questions and now I'm kind of pissed. Because there is no feedback so I have no idea what the hell she wants. I was answering the questions in what I thought was the correct way and making sure I included everything, but apparently not. Now I can't see WHY I got points off so I have no idea what the heck I did wrong. So I guess I get to keep making mistakes and getting points of without knowing why. Oh boy.

Oh I can't have it shipped to norway, I get it shipped to florida and my boyfriends mother takes it with her to denmark. If I have it shipped I have to pay taxes on it. I usually gotta pay very much to pick it up lol, usually around 100-300kr (16,66-50 dollars).

And the doctor appointment sounds sick. That's crazy. But I do actually have to pay to go see the doctor tho, unless it's that once a year check thing. But for us it costs like 160kr(26 dollars | 1kr = 6 dollars) because of out health stuff.

trying to GET healthy....dang cold.....(sorry rr).....
pwnd, might want to ask the prof for some feedback so you 'can improve your responses' type thing....(though, my cold fogged brain might be messing with me, but that was last semester right??? so that class is over with???? ).....

think I will just give up on the mail man--only delivers bad mail anyways (I got some bills for xmas too....willing to give them to anyone who wishes to pay them---) and catalogs, geesh with the holiday over with why do I need another stack of catalogs?????????


think I will give up for today....'nap time it is, yes naptime' (in the yoda voice)


(nekodesu---$16-50 is still cheaper than a plane ticket to the usa)

That is the problem with them being online. You don't get much feedback. Oh well. We will see how it turns out since I do alright on the multiple choice questions.

I agree cosy, napetime sounds nice. But alas I took too many quizzes and missed it. Guess it is time to play video games.

you can never miss naptime...it just happens later
sorry about your online class--that would suck not being able to get feedback and such.

(and you can never have too many nap times either---I think I am turning into garfield!)

Ya, I guess you get used to it though. I took another 5 today so we will see how those turn out. Should be interesting. I think it is reading time (not a textbook but a novel)

I had to take an online class last semester. It wasnt so bad, but the prof never gave me feedbacks. I got mostly 14/15 on all the assignments.

At least I don't have class on Fridays during my winter semester.

Really?, i though you had the same as her ein Denmark, i can go to my doctor 700 times a year and still not pay 1kr for it. We do have insane high taxes, but school, education, hospitals, doctors and so on is free, + we get money for taking an education.

Illinois has to pay tax on some online purchases depending on where you get them from. Amazon isn't like that but other sites, like Fry's I think, I have too.
