Norway: Land of Greatness and....Apple Products??

Norway is so great, so far I love everything here! For those of you that are reading this that don`t know, before Norway I was living in Thailand for six weeks. And let me tell, that made me just the more excited for Norway. I think everyday (because of the heat) I would say "I can`t wait for Norway". I was so happy when the plane landed in to find that it was a cold and sort of a rainy day. Complete and utter refreshment. After living in a extremely hot climate, you really learn to appreciate changing season and coldness ha ha. Norway does remind me of Minnesota, but just by the wildlife. Norway, of course has hills and mountains. Not like flat home. So I think it is definitely hard to get home sick, when Norway is so similar. But yeah, so far everything has just been wonderful. My host family is so great, I am really lucky. I like School way more than school back in Minnesota. This is how school works. We have the same classes the whole year. But we don`t have the same classes everyday. They switch between days and weeks. Somedays we get off school early, somedays I don`t even have school somedays, but that isn`t very often. Plus, we don`t get very much homework. But when we do get homework, it is very hard for me because it is usually reading and I read really, really slow!! But I am getting faster, it is just taking time. The nicest part of Norway is everyone is so nice here :). I mean seriously, when I think about it I have not met non-nice person. Everyone is more than happy to help me with the language and just getting around. Its great, I feel really at home. But back to my title. I was so surprised when I went to school, because it seems like everyone has iPhone!! It was crazy, I don`t even know one person with a iPhone in Minnesota. So people have them here, its funny.
