Guitar

This song is the reason for my bleading fingertips.. haha. Played it the whole guitar lesson.
Anything for the sake of art, right? :)

I miss my weirdo muppets

Finally continued with my scrapbooking and I must say I'm making progress. I'm at September now (sort of.. I kinda forgot about  haven't started with August). And I found this picture. I miss you guys!



I could use somebody.


The wonder of technology



me --->

I might have lost:
8200 pictures from my whole year in the U.S
400 pictures from my first months back in Sweden
ALL my music (read: my life) which is about 30 GB

All because of a damaged (and new) external harddrive.
Οh boy,  do I love computers.
Sometimes they make me feel like killing myself.
Maybe I shouldn't go that far, but let me just say that looking down from the 4th floor
that the window looks pretty inviting right now.
After you, Dear external harddrive.

O h m y G o d !

Just got home the movie theater were Anna and I saw Australia. What a movie! I'm so in love with every part of it! It was a rollercoaster ride from the beginning til the credits started rolling. Happy tears, sad tears, nervous tears, laughter, nailbiting, covering of both ears and eyes - yep, Australia had it all. I'm so stirred up with all these emotions, it's gonna take a while for me to land. A big part of the movie portrayed the segregation and opression of the aborigines. And I must say it touches you really deep down in your heart.

I feel like writing a whole essay about this subject but will instead end with this quote from Mr. Drover (Hugh Jackman, who I'll marry in the future ;) and I couldn't agree more:

"Just because it is, doesn't mean it should be"

What the heck?

Vad hände igår egentligen? Har jag drömt alltihop eller vann verkligen operalåten?! Hm... undra hur det kommer att gå med den i ESC i Moskva (stavas det så?)... Men men, inte för att det gått nått vidare bra för Sverige de senaste åren ändå. Fast jag hade väl egentligen hoppats på Alcazar :) Men jag har skivan, så jag får väl trycka på repeat och låtsas att dom vann.

Yea, take it

Take another little piece of my heart now baby



Swedish vs American

I really suck at making swedish pancakes. Isn't that tragic? A 5 year old can make a pancake that's not either dough och black. Not me. But my american ones are pretty yummie :P
Which one do you prefer?


 


Reasons to celebrate

1. It's the International Women's Day today!

2. I got my drivers license exactly two years ago

3. I went to an amazing concert :)

Such an amazing live voice! (Jill Johnson)

*Snow*



Had an awesome visit in Ulricehamn! Skiing, laughing, dreaming, talking,
planning and rushing to the bus... Anna, you rock :)

"It's all greek to me"

I totally get that saying now... Just got back from another greek class. It's sooo much fun but now we've dug into the grammar...Not so easy. Well, it's easier than it's been before, it's modern greek, so they've cut out a lot of stuff and made it a lot easier. But still.

Now I can tell you what my name is, ask you how you are, and ask what your name is (in 4 different ways) and I can hold up a pen and ask you what it is. Thihi... Love it. It's such a beautiful language. And the letters, they're so aesthetially awesome!

So, καλινύχτα!



I forgot

to make a follow up for my Oscar prediction. 9 out of 17... not my best, but at least I got most of the "heavy" awards right :)
