Weeks 6 and 7 have now passed, and the past few weeks have been quite eventful.
I have been contacted by around 5 different people interested in private English lessons, and I have conducted one conversation class which went quite successfully and pocketed me my first earnings. I was contacted today by another person interested in lessons and will conduct my second teaching this coming friday, quite excited!
Well, we've done a few things around the flat! A trip to ikea and a few bookshelves later, we've gave ourselves space for our .. ach em, reasonable movie game and music collection. with more space to store the books upon. Avast!
I finally bit the bullet and went to the doctors (which was a comical event in itself given the delicate nature of language. Suffice to say, an "errection of the throat' and a hasty "take off your shirt" made for an interestingand somewhat entertaining visit, for both me and my girlfriend)
Language is coming along slowly still, I've not found much time nor motivation (given illness among other things) to put a lot of thought into study. I've been working for the last few days on my assignment for university which, when finished, will give me free time until january (although I'm looking forward to my third assignment about the Arctic and a musem exhibit I must design which seems very interesting)
The weather has been changing alot. It's very depressing in the mornings when it's cold and miserable and dark. The temperatures dropping a lot now with most days bordering on freezing point. Fortunately I've got a nice new (elegant :P thankyou dear) winter jacket to keep myself warm. Today is the first day of snow in the new season :) apparently it's a mixed blessing but time will see.
Perhaps a few minor additions will be added later when i have a little more time ;) but until then, these are the most noteworthy of things to report :)
