You see, for about 6 months now I've been taking chemistry as a subject at school, and Monday it was finally the time for the final exam. It's no secret I've been struggling with chem from day one, but this last month I've really begun to understand the subject. And so I went to school for the exam in good spirits. Well, long story short, it really did not go as I expected - at all. I never counted on an A, but I did, however, think I was going to pass the exam. Unfortunately I didn't, which was a bit of a shocker. I was a bit down when I called Maria and my parents with the news, but luckily the day ended on a happy note. Kasper and I took the bus home to my place where we drank big cups of Christmas tea, listened to Christmas music and went out to play in the snow. So even though it sucked with that stupid exam, I ended up having a lovely day.
Tuesday I'd planned on sleeping in and just relax and enjoy the first day of my Christmas vacation. In stead my mum called and asked me if I could escort her to hospital. Nothing serious, but she figured she might need a hand to get home. I met up with her at the train station, and so we took the train to Ringkøbing and went to the hospital so my mum could have her knee looked at. Everything went fine, so we went to the local mall and looked around for a bit, before my dad came and picked us up. They asked me if I'd like to come home for a couple of days and of course I said yes right away.
So I spent the next couple of days in Nykøbing Falster at my mum and dad's house. Wednesday my mum and I stayed in and enjoyed ourselves, and Tuesday we took a stroll through "my old hood" (aka hick town, haha) and had a cup o' joe at a small café I used to visit all the time when I lived at home.
Further more, when I was back home for a few days, my mum and dad gave me my Christmas present early this year. Can you believe this; they'd bought me a brand new iPhone! I actually used to be a major Apple hater, but this past year I've really come to see how great iPhones and iPads are. And so my dear, sweet parents thought I should be able to play "Draw Something" and "Song Pop", share photos via Instagram and enjoy the rest that comes with an iPhone.
Mum, dad - I love you, haha :)
Friday my parents went to work, but dropped me off in Roskilde first. My parents live in the southern Denmark, but work in Copenhagen, so every day they spend two hours driving both to and from work. That meant I had to get up at 5, which usually would not be something I'm good at. But it was no problem this Friday. After a long drive, we were in Roskilde at 7 in the morning, and in stead of sleeping for a bit, I chose to stay up and get a lot of things done. It was nice to have a day all to myself and just relax a bit, but I actually ended up being a bit bored by the end of the day. Luckily Kasper cured my boredom, and we Skyped for 7 hours that night. I ended up going to bed at 4 in the morning, and boy was I tired the next day.
So I slept in Saturday. Like, really slept in. I woke up at half past 1, and just relaxed a bit, before going to my grandma's to see her, my aunt, my sister and my niece. It's been so long since I've seen my sister and niece, so it was absolutely delightful to just sit on the floor and play with puzzles and teddy bears with Selma, while "the grownups" had their coffee and tea :)
Today I think I'll do a bit of cleaning and watch some Christmas movies.
It's going to be a nice and quiet day, and I hope yours will be too.
Have a lovely Sunday gang!
