School is going really well... We watched a cartoon in historie about the French Revolution, and one woman's dress was ripped and you could see her breasts... I feel silly commenting about this, but hear me out - I remember being in certain classes at Woodstock and having to fast-forward through scenes that contain bad words or even simply kissing. On tv here, there used to be a commercial of a naked woman and no censorship. Also, the middle finger gesture is perfectly okay on television, which, as we know, is always censored on about 99% of programs in America. I just can't help but laugh because of the noticeable difference concerning censorship in Norway vs USA.
Weekend parties here normally last until 2-3 am, but tonight ours lasted until 11:00pm because we are GOING TO SWEDEN TOMORROW MORNING to go shopping because it is cheaper there.
Silly note: toilets flush differently here. :P
And bread is served at every meal.
Today Jon and I watched Shutter Island and yesterday watched a few other films after school. A nice relaxing weekend. I just hope that I will be able to go out soon. I love my host family so much already and love to spend time with them, but I really hope I become closer with some kids at school and get to hang out with them on the weekends or something like that. Next weekend is the district conferance in Tønsberg and all next week is language camp, so I won't be seeing the kids at school. I hope it doesn't affect anything. I know that may sound childish, but this is a new culture. Who knows?
