The Raul Wallenberg Scholarship
Officially I can't say anything for a couple of hours still, but I don't care I'm going to say it anyways: I got the scholarship! Linda and Inger (my old teacher) are going to accept it today, in my absens.
For those of you who haven't got a clue of what I am talking about, I'll fill you in.
Raul Wallenberg was a Swedish "war"hero in WWII. He rescued jews by giving them fake passports to Sweden and he is a national hero; since he was basically the only one doing anything worth mentioning during that war. This scholarship I got is an award for a deed or a project done in his spirit. And it is of course a really big honor to get it (also it involves quite a lot of money). I got it for a project I did last year, namely an inspiration day for everybody in my school concering global work, social work, volontary work and solidarity.
I can't believe I got it!
I know exactly what to do with the money. Trinity Collage here i come!
Woho!
