Last day of class.

Two month can go by really fast when you're having fun. It feels like no time at all.

Two month in German class has just been a blast. I have had so much fun and also learned so much German. So many new word and things in grammar I will not use in daily life but that I'm glad that I know. Great class mates and teachers. Going to school these two month was one of the best choices I have made. Learning is awesome but today was my last day.

Every day waking up, maybe not always feeling like talking German the first thing in the morning and going to class, I still did it. Every day. I missed two days in two month.

Just coming to class, playing games, learning grammar, talking a lot and laughing even more makes me just so motivated to learn this language even better.

German is, since I stated to take it seriously around 2008 when I lived in Germany last, a language I don't want to be without. Even all the hard things in the that I never seem to get right, grammar-wise, doesn't matter when I realize that I can basically talk about anything I like in German.

Since I'm getting money from the Swedish government to study, I had to do a test so they will know that I have learned something. I did this test yesterday. I was really nervous about it before and studied a lot, but on the day of the test I woke up and though "It can't go that bad". All nervousness I had felt the days before was gone.

My confidence got even better after my first class that morning when I got so many things right while talking and my teacher goes "tolles Deutsch!" (I'm translating that to "awesome German" even though it might be a bit strong). This is also the same teacher that the day before told me I speak "slutty" German, which I'm still not sure what it means, but I don't mind it.

So when I go and take the test that afternoon I feel ready. I start doing the test and am surprised that I find it easier than I though it would be. Some things where so obvious because it was just the kind of examples we've been going though in class.

After the written part I talked with a teacher in the school. We talked about bi-lingual schools, segregation, different cultures and so on. I did not find it hard to express anything I wanted to say during this I remember sometime in 2008 when I tried to have these kind of conversations in German and couldn't find a single word or just express parts of all I wanted to say. I learned a lot and I really recognized it then and there.

I got the result today. 75% bestanden!

I'm a bit mad at myself for not getting more points at the grammar part and that I missed eight points in the reading part that I thought went really well. According to this test, I'm as good in speaking and writing, which I know is so not true normally. I seldom write in German, which is a shame, but speak I do all the time.

I showed the result to Anika and Benjamin (the mum and dad that I work for) and Anika was surprised that I didn't get full score in speaking, since she thinks I speak good and all the time so I couldn't get that much wrong.

Anyhow, I zufrieden, happy with it and I might go back to study after a week or a couple of break.

I think I will miss it to much if I don't like the learning nerd I am.
