I’ve done it! The two worst class room exams this year have been idled through and delivered. The first one, Tysk 1101, was 9 o’clock Monday, and I had looked up all the nearby cafés around campus to find out when they opened in order to secure a cup of coffee. I found a good […]

The libraries are as full as my sinuses. It’s the Tide of Exams around Oslo University campus these days, and I have a hard time finding a place to read up on German grammar. And boy is there a lot to read.. As you have figured, I don’t have much time for blogging. Or anything […]

I’m starting this intensive German semester on Monday, and in that regard I bought the entire curriculum of 2 years’ worth of Deutsch in High School. I’ve traversed 50 pages in Reading and Work material since, with too much left that I’ll finish in time. But that’s of no worry, since the curriculum for my […]
