Still waiting

I'm kind of half waiting, half doing at this stage. To register with the job finding company I have to wait for a form from the social welfare so i can continue to have my benefit while I job search. Also waiting for my right of residence to come in the post so I can complete my registration for the Swedish course that I need to do cause everyone here speaks Swedish. then if I'm studying, I think I should be able to get a bank account. On the other side I have been job searching, walking around getting to know Malmö, and getting to the stage I'm at be going to pretty much all of the Government offices in this city. 
I have gotten a new phone and a blisteringly fast internet connection (if onl
y). The phone is alright, it's a Nokia 5800.
 It's decent but the touch screen is 
nowhere as good as the iPhone screen which I'm still using for my Irish number. 
The mobile internet fro
m Telenor isn't bad for browsing and checking emails, kinda slow on the download but I have got the base pa
ckage which I'll probably 
upgrade when I get a job and have a steady income. 
Hopefully today I will get my copy of SnowLeopard OS X v10.6 I was going to get Leopard a couple of months ago but because of 
the imminent arrival of SnowLeopard I have just been waiting, Tiger has served me very well but once in a while something comes up and says you need OS X v10.5 to complete this. Also it's easier to use X11 apps with Leopard/SL than with Tiger, well for me. I probably just was doing something wrong when i was trying it out before. I will probably try to upgrade
 from Tiger to SL since I have seen  online that it
 can/cannot be done. I have all backed up so if needs be I can just do the clean install. I'll keep you updated. 
My previous updates were all done on my iPhone with a lite app so I couldn't add any photos so here's a few:
