Time to say 'Alvida' to Sweden 7/05/13

Time waits for no man.And nothing is permanent.Every hello has a goodbye.That's the reason we have to make the most out of every minute of our life.The last day of our stay in Sweden had come.It began at 6:00 in the morning with the sounds that arose from Chloe's knocking on my bedroom door.Her early morning door knocks served the purpose of an alarm clock for some like Karen and Nishad(he fell off his bed once in attempt to open the door :-P)(please don't be crossed with me Nishad for having mentioned about your royal fall in the blog)We had to be ready by 7:00 to have breakfast and board the bus that took us to Central Station.In Sweden if you ain't on time,the bus doesn't wait.Like I said in the beginning,'TIME WAITS FOR NO MAN'.It wasn't easy for us 'susegad' goans to adapt to the Swedish lifestyle.But we did it.From Central Station,we took a subway and then a bus to reach Tullinge Gymnasium.We reached early that day.Felt so good about it.That morning we had a value education class that was taken by Anthropologist Anhia wherein we had to introduce ourselves and exchange our seats with like-minded people or share an experience about 'breaking a norm',about doing something unexpected that caused tongues to wag and eyebrows to raise.It was fun-filled interaction.We later had a lecture on Swedish history by Sir Matthias.He spoke about Vikings and their raids and not to forget Gustav Adolf's bizarre family.He also spoke about the countries that invaded Sweden and the way Christianity came into Sweden.Post lunch we had to present the projects we'd been working on.We did a comparitive study on Education System,Culture and Rehabilitation for Disabled which the Swedes liked.Then we tried answering two questions put forth by Ma'am Eva 1)How has our stay sweden decreased our enthnocentrism? 2)Which are the insights we received from the Athena project? We later left for home and headed for  dinner@Sodra Latin Gymnasium.Our last dinner with the swedes was an amazing one.At the end we got a lil emotional though.Vanessa played the piano and we sang the song 'Ajeeb Dastan Hai Yeh' which made almost everyone cry.Later we left for Chapman and started packing our bags.It was day full of activities!
