  1. (continued from previous page)
    loudly on the door and then I have to get up. Then I remember something. It is black Monday morning and Saturday is as far away as ever.
    After dinner I go out working and try to kill the evening until nightfall. Monday does not seem so bad then or Friday evening not so far away. Another day's work is finished and that is some consolation.
    If the evening happens to be wet, I stay indoors and learn my lessons. I find it very hard to keep myself awake and at last I go to bed. I dream of the happenings of the day and I soon wake up again. I feel very refreshed and I kill the rest of the evening reading a book of fairy-tales.
