Today we have our "utpressningssamtal" or tutor reviews as your probably would call them in england. the whole school finishes at 12.00 and for us who have reviews today has to be here for our reviews. mine is at 15.30 so i will sit here and study for a few hours (only one left now) to kill some time.

hellu. i don't really have much to say.. today has been a really long and boring day. or well it hasn't because i woke up at two and we had guests over for dinner.. but i haven't  left the house once today and i have studied a lot. this morning (höhö) i got a beautiful video from halbada and i managed to explode my juicebottle, hence why my bathroom ended up looking like this. i'm going to bed now and you should do as well. LOVE

i am sorry for not blogging at all.. i went into town with mucho yesterday around nine and we were sat at dovas drinking beer/cider until half two. i had missed my tram so i stayed round muchos and we went to bed as soon as we got in. we were so tired and i could hardly keep my eyes open. then we had to get up really early because mucho had to go to her job (figure scating instructor) and i had to get home and get ready because we were gonna do a photoshoot with freddi right after. and so we did (and you will see pictures later!) and it was so cold but a lot of fun. mucho and i went round hers after to edit the pictures, eat sushi and just hang out.. before i had to go into town with astrid to watch breaking dawn again. we had dinner (thaifood <3<3) and then went and bought some american sweets (since the english shop was closed and swedish sweets just dont cut it anymore). we were gonna look at the massive christmas alvin and the chipmunk monumet on top of the stureplan mushroom, luckily enough they had taken it down, because it was so ugly (http://www.arkitektur.se/tags/stureplan)! after that we went to the cinema and watched the film, it gets more and more disgusting each time you watch it, deer god. after that we took the tube home and we bumped into anna and isabelle which was nice. now im home sat in muchos jumper that i got and a hairdo i randomly fixed this morning and that has been there since.

So what to do this lovely friday night? I was supposed to stay in and watch films with Brandon, but Craig is down over the weekend so they are going out a massive group of friends. My class is currently at Telefonplan in Midsommargården to see three of the bands from our class play, but I can't be asked to go all the way to Telefonplan, stay sober and pay the unbearable entrance fee of 20 kronor (2quid) ((that almost looked like squid, made me happy)). Mucho, my husband, just texted me saying "Alvik 21???", so that is my plan. Alvik 21. And then we will see where the night takes us. And Ida I wish you were here so I could get drunk with you, I need it.

heyheyheyheyhey, in three hours i have to get off my bum and take the tram back to town. a few people from my class and i are going to watch breaking dawn part one and we are all mega excited. some kind of twilight hysteria has broken out in a pretty normal and not twilight geeky class. i love it, suddenly everyone admits their dirty little secrets about how geeky they are. so at the moment i'm in the kitchen in my slippers doing some chemistry for tomorrow. good times.

I suppose I should make a blogpost about my day and how it was and stuff, but to be quite honest.. I'm just as tired now as I was this mornign and I can't really be asked to make a proper post, therefore I will tell you that I had a really great lunch today with Ellen, Freddi and Sofia. It doesn't happen very often so it was nice, I also joined Freddi walking around in town while I was waiting for Mucho to finish which was fun, becuase that doesn't happpen often enough either. Another great story is when I was supposed to give Sofia her bag back yesterday and I went into my old class during their physics lesson. Everyone was shouting "heeey carro!!!" and Nikta said "carro, i think you've got something wrong.. you don't go to our class anymore". I really miss my old class.

i'm so tired and i really dont want to go school right now, but with my parents and still no idea about how to do the absence i have no choice but to go. i just wanna stay in and sleep away the day.

I haven't got pictures of all my presents, but you have seen my leather jacket in pictures before and it is hard to take a picture of a trip to copenhagen, the same goes for a theatre visit with my nan and a day in town with my other nan (on which she is apparently going to buy me a camera). My new clothes that I got today, well you will see them in pictures in the future and the same goes for my new bag that mum and dad got me (my new jacket and bag are in the port below), it is a black leather back from acne. SO FANTASTICLY FANTASTIC THAT I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GO.

heyheyheyhey, today was a great day!!!!!!! or well it was my first day in school as an adult. it was fun though, we had theatre and we are getting our roles for freedom writers on wednesday! i'm actually a bit nervous. i just really hope that i will get one of the roles that i wished for. anyways, today we had maths and some physics and some theatre and some swedish. it was a nice and easy day and now im home eating apple and studying.

oh and so it turned my birthday and i am now, finally, 18. I am now allowed to go out drinking, buy alcohol under 3.5%, buy tobacco, gamble and many other just as exciting things. I am currently sitting in my room drinking NKs champagne tea (also a birthday present) taking pictures of all my presents (ida requested this) but meanwhile I can show you some pictures from the dinner at mine and from when we were out.

today has been awesome, i fell asleep real nicely to brandons singing last night and woke up tired as hell for some reason - and one hour late. i was lucky though because mum was about to leave ten minutes later and she dropped me off halfway to school hon her way to work. but school was fun since i only had two lessons, and when i started the day there were only 15 hours until it turned my birthday, which were biology (where we watched the most disgusting video) and maths (where i fell asleep, again). after maths we had some really disgusting lunch before we sat down at the fourth floor to play achtung die kurve (a fantastic game tbh).

yesterday wasn't really an exciting day, i even went to bed at nine. see, that's how uninteresting the day was. the audition was fun though and studying maths after school was alright. but when i came home i was really tired so i went to bed really early, however brandon called me later on in the night so i spoke to him for a while before going to bed for real.


today has been, well just an average day. we had school, got a test back, did some school stuff and then after school we had to go look at some chemistry/physics nobelprize thing. then on the way home i bumped into lisa on the tram so we took the tram home together which was really nice.

So, our internet has gone real shit and I can hardly open facebook on my laptop.. So I can't make any blogposts and I am going insane. So I'll speak to you when I can.. Love xxx

Okay, today has been a busy day and that's why I haven't been blogging at all today. I woke up early this morning expecting mum and I to leave the house around 11 to go pick up mucho and buy food for my birthday, but someone from the stable had bus problems so mum had to go there and drop of our horsebus so that they could keep going and mum could take theirs back to the stable. So about three hours later she picked me and mucho up and we went food shopping, we bought so much food. It was truly amazing. And they had these selfscanning weapon things so I could run around like a secret agent. It was great.

After dropping off mucho and breaking the traffic rules, mum and I went to IKEA to invest in some new stuff. I got three new sets of duvet covers and pillow covers, two lamps for my room and we bought a new spare bed for people coming to stay here with us. I also found a great christmas present for brandon. After the fun times with mum at IKEA we had a lovely fathers day dinner with the whole family before we put up the new lamps and cleaned up a bit.

i am being much inspired by my darling friend mucho and i am going to sell some of the clothes that i never use anymore. so some day soon i will take pictures of all of those and then put those pictures here in my blog so that you know what is on offer and then you can buy all of it because well most of the clothes that i don't use anymore has only been used like once or twice. so things like this might be in your hands soon.

I met Brandon when I was in England for a year as an exchange student. I met him the fifth of September 2010 when my new found friends and I were hanging out together at Freds. We were a small group of people but I spent most of the time talking to him, we were playing games on my phone and talking about music, sexuality and well life? After I got home that night he added me on facebook and msn, after that we spent (pretty much) every woken hour talking to each other over facebook or msn or real life.

So our meeting and getting to know each other was very good, he was one of my best friends in England but quickly turned into something more than a friend. We were talking everyday and we could really talk about everything, he always managed to cheer me up when I was missing home and he really knew how to make me laugh. So even though Brandon was my best friend and I really liked him it took us until February until we got officially together (I did however consider him mine a lot earlier than that). The time up until then was a bit of a rollercoaster. It was very much complicated and we went back and forth over and over again.

Eventually we did get together though and I still remember how happy I was when he asked me, and how happy I got when we kissed in public, and how happy I got when we held hands in public. It was such a wonderful feeling. We were together for four months before it was time for me to go back home and we had so many fights, arguments, discsussions and conversations about what to do, should we break up and stay friends, should we break up and never talk again, should we stick together despite the distance. It was very though because I was convinced we could do it but he wasn't and he didn't want to try and have to end it on bad terms. Luckily enough, he changed his mind.

So the last night on the island I spent in his arms, I cried myself to sleep because I didn't want to leave him and everything. I didn't want to live thousands of miles away from him. And even though it has been tough being in a distance relationship it really has been worth it. I see him every 1-3 months and when we aren't together we talk on skype, we chat on facebook, write letters and speak on the phone. I know that even though he might not be here, I can always talk to him and he is always there for me. I miss him an awful lot though, really awfully much.

I love Brandon and I don't really know what I would do if I weren't together with him. He is so wonderful and he always manages to cheer me up.

I am a very happy bunny because of tomorrow (apart from that test of mine. I have plans with my dear prince charming, tinkerbell, freddi. We are gonna watch films, eat nice stuff and have cosy times. She might also help me with my lines for my audition on monday! Good times, I don't think I have properly hung out with Freddi since I got home from England so it is going to be great.

ah bless today, today has been a good day. i accidentally overslept so i got to school an hour late, but it was okay because today was seminarday and i was only late for the first seminar (no biggey ((spelling?)), but i got in and watched the end of it then i had a short break before going to my second one which was called "where did Breivik get his ideas" and it was very interesting  but it wasn't really about breivik it was more about islamophoby. after the seminar we had a really really long break so we went to esplanad to buy some julmust (obsobs light - no sugar during weekdays).

Hey guys, I'm home and everything but I have a really big chemistry test tomorrow so I have to study and won't update until later tonight. LOVE XXX

so after all here is a little post, it won't be fun or long. just a few pictures and a quick - i've done this today.

hey guys, i'm home and i'll blog tomorrow. after i got home josses family and lisas family came over to surprise and celebrate josses dad who turned 50 today. so i have been pretty busy celebrating, eating, unpacking and not feeling too well. So bye i'll speak tomorrow because i'm dead tired and i have to get up early tomorrow.

So today is my last full day in England, I haven't studied enough but I have had lot's of fun and it has been great seeing everyone after such a long time. I've spent way too much money, mainly on books, but on generally awesome stuff. So today, my last full cool day, what are we doing. Well we haven't actually left the bed yet, only for a shower and getting dressed. But I want to go to the cinema tonight, I wanna see this new film called In Time with Justin Timberlake (when did he become an actor?) and Amanda Seyfried. I like the concept of the film so much already, but I am a bit unsure about Justin Timberlake as an actor. We will see where the night takes us, LOVE CARRO XXX.

it is boring here without my man, it was nice for a while but i miss him now.

Today has been a good day, Brandon and I went into town and had lunch at McDs before going to Ryde where we had fun visiting a really good toyshop (bought some ((one)) christmas presents), a shop with really old comic books and the Dr. Martens shop. I finally bought the shinyred docs I've wanted for so long and I also bought a reallyreally nice jacket that I've also wanted for a time now. LOOK.

Today brandon and I are going to Ryde so I can buy a pair of red shiny docmartens. God I've wanted these for ages and I can finally get them. I'm so excited. Tonight Brandon has a surprise for all his friends on the island and they are all going out together (I'm so excited for them) so I have to find something else to do and I am contacting all my frrrriends here to see if there is anything exciting going down. LOVE XXX

i was skyping with mum for a bit on tuesday night, she told me that my clothes form american apparel, nelly and asos had gotten there so i got real exited. we also discussed my birthday dinner for a while and she accepted and approved all my ideas. while we were talking mum randomly put on a pig mask and started talking through that instead.. it was funfunfun but i do need to speak to her again to discuss doc martens..

I am currently watching the new chuck episode, it is the first episode of season five which also happens to be the last season of chuck. It is so very very very exciting.

Brandon is only in college for an hour today, but I didn't feel like hurrying this morning so instead I'm here for about half an hour-forty five minutes before I have to go. Studying, updating my blog and mainly getting dressed (what should I wear today???). We are gonna watch Tintin today and I'm also getting Josse some stuff from town (a pair of converses and boats foaming face wash). If any of you guys want anything from England give me a text or so and I'll fix.


ALSO, THANKS FOR THE PRETTY POST UNDERNEATH HERE. IT MADE ME MUCH HAPPY.

So what have I done while I've been here. Well I have already told you some of this, but I'll give you a quick recap. I came here late at night on friday, I went to the airport around four o'clock pm on friday and got to Brandons at about 0.30 am British time (half one, swedish time), so it was straight to bed and not much fooling around. On saturday it was Gemmas birthday which meant bowling and dinner out, i ate a lovely but massive burger à la boathouse and then had an even lovelier cheesecake. Sunday was spent inside and we considered going to the poolquiz but stayed in instead.

Yesterday brandon had to go back to college, so at seven in the morning he got up and got ready for that while I stayed in bed for a few more hours. I got into town at about half twelve and met up with Hannah, Jazzy and Calvin in town for a bit before Hannah and Jazzy wandered off in different directions. So I spent a few hours walking around town with Calvin and buying useful stuff.


I went to waterstone's and bought three books; "The perks of being a wallflower by Stephen Chbosky", "the coincidence engine by Sam Leith" and " the terrible privacy of Maxwell Sim by Jonathan Coe". I also went to the "new" toyshop called the entertainer where I found a great amount of fantastic toy story toys and some dr who stuff that my geeky friends might enjoy. I visited boots and got a tweezer, paracetamol (<3<3<3) and some useful stuff. I also went to work (which is another new shop in newport) where they sell books, art supplies and other nice things. I bought three sets of letters for 99p each which made me happy. I also got my sister some glowsticks and a birthdaybadge for my own birthday. Oh, and I bought tea tree face wipes from the bodyshop as well.

Today Brandon had college again but he started late so we got up together and got ready, we then took the bus into town and got of by the college where he went in and I kept walking past on my way in to town. I got a text of Hannah on my way there so I met up with her, Calvin and my lovely adorable twin Rob. It was great to see him and he gave me the most amazing hug ever! We had lunch and then Hannah and I took the bus to Medina so that I could get my grades and to pick up my photography work from last year. However, Medina managed to lose half of our groups work so I spent an hour looking for nothing. They will look for it though and send it to me on medinas money, so screw them. I did get my grades though and was very pleased with a B in Photography, a C in Psychology and an E in Philosophy. Hannah said that I was the best out of all the EF students and this made me very happy.

After spedning too much time in medina we went back into town and I met up with Brandon, Hope and Rob for a bit before going to Blockbusters to rent Pirates of the Caribbean, On Strangers Tides and to buy Battlefield 3 for Brandon. We took the bus home and we have spent our evening doing different kinds of geeky stuff and we are about to put on Pirates in a minute since Brandon doesn't have college until 12.45 tomorrow. Have a great half term Swedes, and a great week the rest of you. Love XXX

hey gais, a post will be up here later when i have taken some pictures of the things i have bought while i've been here. just hold on for a little bit longer.
