Dear Diary,
Things have managed to stay pretty calm for the past few days. On Friday, I spent the morning sailing and the afternoon painting oars for the Lotsens. The Konfirmands left for their sailing trip and returned Saturday morning. It's funny how much different rules are here than at a typical Boy Scout camp. There is no way that they would let a group of 15 year old coeds go sailing and camping by themselves...
I watched the movie Wanted the other day with a bunch of other Swedish and international stuff. I thought it was a pretty good movie, but everyone else hated it. I guess no one appreciates the classic American filmmaking themes of excessive violence, cars, and women.
On Saturday, I spent all day painting and rigging up an extension to the flag pole at Fladan. It was pretty boring, and I couldn't finish it because we didn't have the right parts. Saturday night was the weekly Disco, which of course was held at the chapel. It was pretty great watching Konfirmands dance on an altar underneath a disco ball that replaced the crucifix. Irony at its best. It was a good time, but I feel like I should go to confession or something....
Today was pretty easy. I went sailing all day with other staff members. Sailing is much more fun to go with people who understand your language and know how to sail.
Another staff change happened today, as I had to say goodbye to friends who I probably won't see again. Life can be weird sometimes. Until next time...
Love,
Lukas
