Gjetost

Mid-term frenzy

i still have 3 mid terms coming up. the first one in 12 hours and i'm not even half way through preparing for them. AND i'm still blogging. zomg. but my consumer behavior book is lying right next to my laptop and i'm catching a few sentences here and there. LOL (:

the jet lagging is kinda crazy. i've been sleeping around 5-6am the past 3 days, which explains the 2 classes that i've missed.. but it's not for lack of trying! i tried going to bed around 1 yest but i just tossed and turn for like an hour or so. gave up, got up and read till 6 before i started feeling slightly drowsy. wasn't really expecting this since i was only away for 2 weeks but shittttt.

anyway, i'm already missing the friends i made there and... the snow. haha. alexandra, kristofer and well, basically everyone who's scandinavian thinks i'm completely nuts to miss the snow. haha. but i've only experienced it for 2 weeks, not 2 years so i think i'm entitled to miss it! hehe.

but on a more serious note, ISFiT was probably one of the best experiences i've ever had. meeting people from conflict areas like iran, israel and countries like armenia, bahrain, russia, chile.. it was just, such an eye opener. attending the peace prize ceremony and learning about the western sahara conflict also made me realize how sheltered i've been. the best parts were of course the plenary sessions with hans blix, bharati, flemming rose, betty williams which were thought provoking and inspiring.
but beyond that, the friendships i've made are the ones that i hope to keep for many many years to come. such crazy, intelligent and fun people. hopefully we'll get to have our own little ISFiT gathering sometime soon in some part of the world. haha. positivity, right (: i think trygve was spot on, when he said that this was only the beginning (:

oh how i misssssss trondheim so. and BALLS that i didn't get to sneak to sweden for a few days. hehe.

alright, with that said, i should tryyyy to be more focus if i wanna do well. LOL. back to consumer behavior!

ha det bra!
