LOL Vember! OOPS! I meant sq meters. LOL wow 29sq km would be owning a city of my own lmao

Well our aparment is actually 28sq m which I think is about 33 sq yards. It is a small place, but it's fine. I've never lived in a house. I grew up in an apartment, my bedroom was 11 square yards. And then my apartment before I moved here was about 24 sq yards, so it's a step up! lol

Nothing close to 29 sq km though ;D

and I hope for a good SFI teacher, too! I'm really looking forward to my classes, that'll be the first major step in my new life... semi independant when I'm otherwise so hopelessly dependant in that strange world.

Vember, the teachers for SFI here in Skellefteå..hmm. how can I say this? There's 1 good one, and the last one you'll have is the devil's wife. [glow=red,2,300]Sorry!![/glow]

But the one who is good, the first one you'll have, Bibi, is just one of the most wonderful teachers I ever had!

Well awesome, when I meet Bibi I'll have to tell her I heard nice things about her, too, maybe brighten her day to know she's internationally famous

As for teachers, well, I hope to have an edge in my learning... Fredrik has been a Swedish teacher. Granted, it was Swedish as in the grammar and literature courses, not SFI, but he's pretty patient and explains very well.

Plus it seems to help, having knowledge of German. While buying a watch I just guessed at the word "billig" thanks to German, and sure enough, that's the Swedish word, too! Funny how often that works. ...Of course, the sales-lady finally just quirked her face and said (in perfect English, mind) "Would you rather speak English?"
