When you need to tell yourself that you really shouldn't spend more time studying than what you had originally planned for the next day, because you have other important things to do and they didn't get done yet because you'd been studying instead.

When you know that the most effective argument when having a fight with your parents is replying in your target language. They simply quit after the second line, saying: "mhm"

When it's very hot in the sauna and you're about to go out but then Swedish-speaking women come in and you stay as long as they do.
When you realize that those lovely conversations in the sauna are exactly why you're now able to remain there much longer than five years ago. 2 persons have voted this message useful |
