The results for the clinical exam were made public 3 hours after I left school today. I don't feel up to going to school tomorrow, so I am having a classmate check my grade for me in the morning (she was sure she'd fail and ended up getting an E, so she's happy).

I've heard back from the people in Bergen who want an optometrist for half a year with possibility of making it permanent. I haven't heard back from the people near Stavanger that might have use for an optometrist on a permanent basis. I guess I'll be calling them tomorrow, because I really rather would work there (and not as a temp).

The guy that went missing on New years day was found drowned on Monday (identified today), in some filter gratings in a very small power plant that's in the rapids part of the river in the middle of town. I was just looking at one of the notes his friends and family have hung all over town earlier today, and hoping he'd somehow show up now that the snow has melted. I also thought that they must be sure he was dead by now but wouldn't get closure unless they found out. I am glad they have now.
The poor guy had taken the bus home from Oslo after celebrating new year, fallen asleep and gotten off 1 hour too late (in my home town instead of in the town I work in), had gotten off the bus here and purportedly started walking home. And fallen in the river. He was 21 years old.
Life is short and random.
