My spring break. April 12.
My spring break in Sweden was wonderful. One day after Malaysia week. We boarded on the plane to Sweden, so I was extremely tired. We where at the air port at 4pm because we had to be on the plane at 7pm. I slept almost the WHOLE way to Amsterdam. That’s 11 hours, I think 11 hours of sleep on a plane is a lot. I never eat the food that they serve on the plane because I think it tastes discussing. it only takes around one hour from Amsterdam to Copenhagen, so we went on a small plane.
Went we arrived to Copenhagen I told mom that I wanted a fruit juice, but when we walked to buy one we almost forgot how expensive it was in Scandinavia one small juice cost around Rm13! When we walked out of the airport my grandparents was waiting to picking us up. It only takes around 45 minutes because my home city is Helsingborg and that’s closer to Copenhagen’s airport than any other.
We arrived at their house at around 11am and I met my dog Donna. She was so happy and so was I. I only ate a piece toast at their house after I rushed through that toast I asked my grandpa if he could drive me to my friends’ house and yes he could, and he said yes. So when I came to my friends’ house, my friend was sleeping so when I woke him up he thought he had a dream that i was there, but no it was for real. I was so happy to see him. After an hour or so we called some other friends and hung out.
At around 8pm I fell asleep because of my jetlag. As a result I didn’t get to see a very funny Swedish TV program. Although I didn’t wake up very early in the morning, around 10am. That day we went to a place called GEC (Game Center) it’s an internet cafĂ© where I met some old class mates. We played a game called Cod4 (Call of Duty 4). In Sweden its a lot more expensive to go on internet cafes. 1 hour costs 15 rm. We took the bus home but, in Sweden it costs as much to go by bus as It doed to go by taxi in Malaysia.
My mom stayed at her friends house, where I would have to sleep if I couldn’t sleep at any friends house. But I only slept there two nights even though my friends went to school I woke up at the same time as them and went to my “base” (moms friend’s house). When I was at her house, I either watched television or went on the computer to make the time go faster.
After 10 days in Sweden we flyied back to Malaysia. I had two days to finish up my homework and try to get some rest to get my jetlag but the first day of school I was very tired because it is 7 hours different from Sweden to Malaysia. I do not recommend to go so far for only 10 days because it takes around a week to get over the jetlag, then 3 days normal and then back to other time.
