挪威人的渡假之旅

  2月21日,放假中,winter holiday。剛剛去完鄰居的渡假屋。三日兩夜,超累。在那裏,積雪太多,每次出入都要以滑雪代步。很感恩,每次都可以完成"不可能的任務"。第一次入去時,可能未習慣厚雪加上要背行李,所以行幾分鐘便跌。行下,跌下,在我的視線範圍內,一個人都沒有。在我眼前,只剩下白茫茫的雪和一條有人走過的路,冰天雪地,白雪皑皑。我為了保持專心,雖然旁邊有漂亮的景色,我都不理睬它們。不知道過了多久,終於到了,累死。
  第二,三日他們都去downhill skiing。原本我都想試試看,但到現場試察後,都是不要搞我了。眼前一座山,一個個人被吊到山上,然後滑下來。站在前面,有點腳震。我只好自己一個去cross-country,不去冒跌死的風險。(有點誇張,應該不會死,最多跌斷手腳。)
  我最享受在渡假屋外起雪屋。因為在香港永遠都做不到,哈哈!

15-2-2012 音樂劇

  學校有一個音樂劇。周圍都貼滿了海報,海報的設計吸引我,它好像一張藏寶圖。我想你應該猜到音樂劇大概的內容。走廊張貼了很多音樂劇的照片,從每一個演員的臉上,找到的都是滿腔熱忱。對於接觸過音樂劇的我,當然產生共鳴,所以我決定去看。縱使同班同學不感興趣,我堅決要去。一星期共7場,我已錯過了3場。我打電話去訂票,怎知只剩下一場,其他都爆滿。剩下一場的會撞到上課時間,所以我拒絕了。我想又想,我真的很想看,但我又要上課,怎麼辦?我祈禱,希望神能給我一個好答案。結果我再次打電話,訂了票。
Skatteøya 寶藏

  音樂據終於開始!全部演員一起粉墨登場,以一段海盜的舞蹈和歌曲,帶領觀眾進入海盜的世界。舞蹈充滿活力,顯現海盜的粗野。雖然不是個個人有mic,但都能清楚聽得到每句歌詞和對白。相比培基的"Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat",我較喜歡這裏的。縱使音響比培基差,有一下的聲音令我的耳朵很疼,我做音響都未試過咁恐怖。不過燈光設計和服飾設計,都更勝培基一籌。有一幕,在夜晚,背後有很多星星在閃爍 , 旁邊加上個月亮陪伴,賞心悅目。每件服飾都不一樣,全部由學生親手縫製,獨一無二,美不勝收。這個音樂劇全靠同學和老師,便能那麼成功,我希望培基也可以學習。放手讓同學自己舉辦活動,不是一個更好的方法去培養未來的領袖?

Six months goes by

  6 months, I have been in Norway for 6 months, unbelievable. Time goes too fast, I don't want to think of how much time left. I think I am lucky, everything goes success, no big problem.

 Having a good family. They really take care of me. They pick me up from training every week, even though is far away from home. They gave me a bus card if I need it, it saves me lots of money. (haha) When they travel to watch host brother handball's match, they would bring me with. I have much freedom and always have an opportunity to choose. They always talk with me to care about me. When I cook Hong Kong for them, they appreciate and I feel really success and glad. I think they are a really good in being a host family even though this is their first time.  In the future, I hope they can host more exchange students, let more students experience Norway life.
Delicious :)
First time to make egg tart
  Having many nice friends. In school, seems all the girls in my class are my friends since there are only 9 girls in class. They are nice and kind, different from Hong Kong friends. They help me face many problems. For example, when we go to ice skating in gym class,  they try their best to help me and encourage me. Actually I fear of ice skating, I think I will just fall, fall, fall and fall all the time. I don't want to go instead of escape. When I got my ski shoes, one of my classmate initiative to come to me and help me tie up my ski shoes. Then she use 激將法to encourage me. (不然無朋友做)Finally, I can ski without anyone help.
  Norwegian like to encourage and praise others.

  Lets talk about the my Norwegian. Um...... In afs camp, I have meet other exchange students. Most of them can listen and speak fluently. For me, I can hear little and understand little. I can do basic and easy communication, but not every sentence I can understand. When I have individual talk with the afs volunteer, she said I can speak Norwegian and I can hit my target. Many people also said I can speak good Norsk, like my teacher and friends. I think I can be much better, I am just lazy.

  This year, the weather is not so good. Do not have much snow. Most of the time is ice road with hard snow. After raining, the ice road become more slippery. This weather is not so suitable for skiing, so I don't have many chance to ski. First time, I just practice in home garden. After 4 days, home training, I go to forest to have my first cross-country skiing. That was a tough trip, I ski for about 3km in 2hours. My host parents are impressed by me. In the trip, I have fall at least 10 times, every time when I go down slope. I still don't believe I can do it. However, after the ski, there is 1 bubble on my each foot sole. My next cross-country is in afs camp. In that forest, all  road are flat, thus, I can do it really well without falling. I start to love cross-country skiing.
