Juni

1st of June. Pinch, punch, and all that. It means that my time in the kingdom of Sweden has now spanned through 4 months (even though the actual time overall only adds up to 2 and a half months).

In other news, I sold my guitar back to the shop today, which was very sad. No more playing and singing for the next week. I'm very happy though, that I managed to sell it back at quite a reasonable price. I bought it originally for 550kr (£42.30) including a flimsy case for 100kr. The guy at the shop wrote on the receipt that I could sell it back to them for 40-50% within 2 months. So I was preparing myself for the worst case scenario - that they'd give me 40% of only the guitar (not the case), which would get me 180kr (£13.85), or maybe even a bit less if they noticed that one of the strings was a bit... eroded. But the guy (not the same one who sold me the guitar), just took it out of the case, gave it a quick look, and immediately gave me 50% back of the guitar+case - 275kr (£21.15). So I'm pretty happy with that. I had to give my phone back to Carolien (my Swedish phone that is - I still have my English phone), meaning that I've essentially saved 200kr (£15.38) on credit which I had already budgeted for. So those two little profits are almost enough to pay for my ticket to go to the Canterbury summer ball. So yay!
