Tabula rasa - just like I feel right now!
The topic for this weeks assignment is perfect in so many ways! To have a clean slate to write whatever you want on is a good assignment. I connect it to the fact that I and Anna-Karin just have finnished our examwork (examensarbete), and at least I feel lika a clean slate right now. There is a new life waiting just around the corner, with new opportunities and problems. Am I going to get a job or be unemployed? What am I going to fill my days with now that I don't have t study anymore? It's scary yet exciting to face the "real" world after years of studying.
The financial situation in the nation and particularly in Motala is horrible for teachers right now. There are going to be over 90 teachers let off their jobs in the next 2-3 years!! This makes me think that I have to work somewhere else, which is okey, but I guess it's hard to get a job anywhere at this point. This is right now my biggest worry, that I won't get a job, doing what I love to do! But I will fight for the jobs that are out there and hopefully that will do the trick!
After 4,5 years of studying my brain has gotten used to the challenge of learning new things, and this worries me because I don't want my brain to deteriorate and get slower. I hope that I will manage to keep it alert and hungry for knowledge the rest of my life, since learning things is so rewarding I think. I can never learn too much!
My days will hopefully be filled with work, but IF I do get unemployed, I have a small back-up plan! I have also got an gold smith education in my back-pack, and if I won't get a job as a teacher, I will start making my own jewelery and sell over the Internet. Anyway, jewelery making is a good therapeutic way to stay sane and I will practice it alot (I allready do actually!).
To wrap things up I will miss studying, at the same time as I can't wait to get out in the "real" world! Watch out, here I come!

Hello Linda!
SvaraRaderaI enjoyed reading your text! Interesting, honest and humoristic at the same time. What I like the most with it is your positive attitude towards the labour market. I think that will make you a winner at the end.
You deal with one idea per paragraph just as we are suppose to. So the structure is good, it is not a causal or argumentative text but it is a well written text about your own topic.
As to the language, I just found some small mistakes which I think you made by mistake.
Good luck with the exam and with finding a job!
Best, Anna
