Another random entry...

I got a free CD today while I was on my way to lunch. I don't know why it is free, I guess it was for advertisement? But the lady told me that the songs are in English and they tell a story. But I haven't had the time to listen to it yet....

*free CD*

The computer keyboards here are different from the ones we have in Singapore. Took a picture of it... you can see that there are 3 additional letters present - ä, å, and ö. Cool huh, makes it so much easier when you need to use those letters, otherwise you got to use the "Insert Symbol" function in some word processor to get the letters out.

*the additional letters on the right side of the keyboard*

This week's lecture series on cancer had some handouts given in Swedish!! The topic coordinator was so funny because she kept apologizing to me for the inconvenience I had during lecture because I don't really understand what the slides meant. And she even offered to translate 1 whole set of lecture notes for me into English. So I guess it will take a week or so before I can get it from her. Chatted with her for quite awhile too, and she told me that she was like me, an exchange student doing this exact same module here. She is from Germany, but now she's a postgraduate student here in Lund University, and she said that maybe one day in the future, I'll be the one sitting in front of the lecture theatre in Lund University just like her. Haha, what a great encouragement from her.

*thanks alot for taking the time to translate ^_^*

I went to Nova Lund today too. It's a big shopping centre on the outskirts of Lund, where most shops can be found. Went around window shopping, hoping to buy some cheap stuffs, but couldn't really find any in the end. I could only try them on, take some pictures and put the clothes back. There was this huge shop just selling shoes as well. The ladies shoes took up half the store, and the other half was shared by the men and children shoes section. Tsk, ladies and shoes.....

*i like this sweater - a whopping S$460*

*the big shoe store*

And I ate Happy Meal at McDonald's today and got a toy of the cat character in Shrek the Third.

*what is his name?*

I wonder what I should do this coming weekend. Everyone is out of town, in other parts of Europe and I'm stuck here. Zzzzzz.... It's been a long time since I felt so lost ever since I've arrived here, without having any plans of what to do.
