Happy new year! (soon)

Looks like Michaela is leaving me at the beginning of the new year. Going to be both good and bad, good to have some alone time and bad that I can't join them. But I have some time left in this country and hopefully I can spend the last month travelling around seeing things and even my uncles friend Helena :) Maybe one of you like to come on a visit? :D

My foot is still broken. Guess it is because I killed my leading tendent two times before. Makes them easier to hurt. The bad thing about that is obvious and tha good thing about it is that I can't work new years eve with it. Hope it gets better soon so that I don't have to be away from work a longer time, since I love it! :D

Tomorrow is the big day and me and Michaela are going to look soooooooo cute. Me in a blue dress and her in a champagne coloured one. Planning on meeting the others on a blanket as close to the bridge and opera house as possible :) Feels strange to know that we are going to celebrate New years 10 hours before you guys back in Sweden... but well well :D

I am actually thinking about staying here for as long as I can, hope you guys don't hate me too much when I say that... But i do enjoy this town soooo much! The people, the weather, the closeness to everything and just the fact that I like my job. hmmm but we'll have to see I guess. I just wanted to wish all of you a happy new year and I hope that you all are good and happy!

Biggest of kisses!

Mumsa mat!

Karins operahus!

Varat fina pepparkakshus

Call mum!

Julen ar slut. Det marks knappt har, forutom att varat pepparkakshus rasade samman pa juldagen eller annandagen. Hur ar det dar hemma? Springer alla runt pa mellandagsrean tro?

Vad hander har nere da? Jo jag har slutat pa Goldfish, av nagon okand anledning(kan faktiskt inte satta fingret pa det) sa trivdes jag inte. Ar inte det jag vill gora nar jag ar har. Harry och David har kommit hit och vi tre drar norrut nagra dagar in pa nya aret for att se vad som finns att erbjuda i andra delar av Australien.

Nagra beachvandor har vi aven hunnit med sen senast och jag tror att vi borjar fa lite farg nu.

Nyar hoppas jag att vi spenderar pa en mysig grasplatt med utsikt over operahuset och harbour bridge med massa god mat och dricka och vanner. Tror det kan bli superbra!

tillochmed himlen vet vad ni vill... :)

En javla massa jul!

The two Swedes that Michaela knows showed up at 7 or eight in the morning on Christmas eve. I woke up after just getting 2 hours of sleep after working a 10 1/2 hour at work. Wow that was rough, but I did it :)And thanks again to Michaela's mom for the liquorice and the magazine :D

Wonderful Christmas time. We had a nice Christmas after all and we got to celebrate it twice :D On Christmas eve we were at Karin and her boyfriends house eating loads of candy and food! We actually made a really nice risgrynsgrot out of sushi rice :) We even danced around the Christmas tree! Well i didn't, i filmed it all and laughed so hard i almost died instead :D Hopefully we can upload our films later on but now it takes toooooooo long so we don't have the time for it in the Internet cafe. When we came home after a long Christmas celebrating and loads of candy I found a package on my bed from my mom :) the funny book "gamla tanter lagger inga agg" and a very nice letter that made me feel all warm inside. thanks mom :D

On Christmas day we slept and slept, well at least tried to with the whole house full of Irish people..... In the afternoon we went to auntie Sandra and had a wonderful Aussie/new Zealand Christmas! Ham, turkey, salmon, the most wonderful tuna ever, and plenty plenty more :) they even bought us all some new Zealand food items as Christmas gifts :) I just love them, they are so friendly and wonderful people!

Now I guess me, Michaela, Harry and David are going to the beach to relax a bit here on boxing day. Hope you guys are good back at home!

Jennifer ater en massa grot. Ser ni likheten mellan min pappa och denna pepparkaka :D

Fore och efter. hahaha

GOD JUL!

Hej allihopa! Hur har ni det? Har julstamning infunnit sig i avlanga landet Sverige? Kan tanka mig att det i alla fall ar lite mer julstamning dar an har. Det var i alla fall inte sa mycket julstamning nar jag var ute och sprang igar, jag sprang namnligen fel och trodde jag skulle do i hettan. Jag ar saker pa att jag var ute i minst 2 timmar och skulle forsoka hitta tillbaka till huset, hittade i alla fall 2 saker vi nu har datorn pa och det funkar ju bra, sa det ar lite trost.

I morgon ar det julafton har och da forsoker 6 svenskar att fira jul i en liten etta i potts point. Ska forsoka fa det sa svenskt som mojligt! Jag antar att Jen slanger in en uppdatering om julen senare..

Saknar er alla dar hemma hur mycket som helst, kanns ibland som att ni ar har for att jag tanker pa er sa mycket. Alskar att vara har, det ska Gudarna veta, men ibland ar det fruktansvart ensamt. Men nu blir det fullt os nar Crazy Man Harry kommer, sa da ar det bara att tuta och kora.

GOD JUL

God jul alla som jag saknar! :)

So here we are, two days from Christmas eve and I can't really get in to any Christmas feeling at all. But I haven't been able to feel anything since I found out that Santa isn't real ;D

Guess all of you know that I messed up my foot a tiny bit... God I am such a cluts, the biggest cluts ever really! But I just sprained it a bit and it is kind of back to normal now, so I can work tonight :)

We had a Swedish Christmas lunch with Clare, auntie Sandra and Chris this Sunday. We made some meatballs, sausages, "mammas potatisgratang" ;), egg halves, gingerbread, beat root salad. It was yummy and it gave me and Michaela a Chance to know what to get for Christmas eve with 4 other swedes :)

I hanged around with Clare a couple of days ago drinking coffee and meeting up with her other friend Clare. haha. too many Clares :D Just chatting and catching up a bit before she left us all and went back to New Zealand over Christmas and new years.

Yesterday i hanged around with Amy for a while and visited her workmates. Had a blast mixing mentoes and diet coke to try to make it explode, but we failed miserably ^^ Had some drinks and good conversation and went back home around 12 at night. And i did find a mattress on the way back that I dragged with me home so that Michaela's friends don't have to sleep on the floor :D

Today i am taking a stroll down to the park to read and study the menu a bit, then i am off to work at 5.

off off off I go!

Oh and merry Christmas my loves!

Snabb uppdatering!

Da sitter man har igen och knappar pa tangentbordet.Varmt idag, igen.Och man trottnar faktiskt inte, inte an i alla fall. Var ute igar med tjejerna, drog till Circular Quey och dansade salsa och det var superkul! Mindre kul ar att Jennifer har gjort illa en fot:(

Annars ar det jobb for min del ikvall och det ar kul, forutom dem dar jakla hogklackade skorna. Suck, dem kommer doda mig! Ni far ursakta att det blir ett sant haffsigt inlagg men jag har inte atit frukost an(kl 12 pa dagen) for att nagra grabbar vi bor med inte kan diska(finns bara 3 skalar). Och jag tanker inte diska at dem, men det ska dem fa hora ikvall. Det lovar jag.

A little bit tired from my crazy weekend :D

Enjoy!

Well me and Michaela are doing plenty of different things right now since we aren't working the same days as each other. Guess that is both good and bad. Good because we get a break from each other and bad cause we can't do as much things together anymore and the fact that the cab cost goes through the roof if we don't share it home after work.

I had a crazy weekend... ouuuff....
Friday i met up with Clare and had some wine. Michaela met up with us after she finished working and we had a blast :D was so nice talking to Clare and catching up! And she had made the cutest gingerbread cookies ever! I am going to take a pic of them and post it on FB as soon as I remember to get the cord to the camera with me to the Internet cafe :D

I worked Saturday but stayed after work with the four managers. well one of them left early :) Me and Dartan (bartender) stayed and had some drinks. trying out a lot of different ones since Ben would want us to know the difference between them. wow we go a bit drunk i tell you. and all of a sudden it was 2 o'clock in the middle of the day! oh god.. to make a long story short.... I went to bed at 3 in the afternoon the day after. hahaha. had a blast though. Now I am off to get some lunch and then I start working at 5. woooooaaaaa. and the big opening is tomorrow. Going to be loads of fun :D

Loads of kisses!

Luciahelgen!

Hej alla stjarngossar och lucior! Har borjar vi fa lite julstamning, observera lite. Har en liten julgran i vardagsrummet med lite paket under. Som redan har blivit tjuvkollade, pojkarna har erkant. Deras argument var att dem maste veta vad dem ska kopa till oss och darfor snokade dem.. ; )

Den har helgen har jag spenderat mycket tid med mig sjalv. Jennifer har jobbat och har sovit hela dagarna, sa jag har fatt gora mina utflykter sjalv. Men det har ju sjalvklart gatt hur bra som helst! Sen att jag inte kommer ihag hur min rost later nar jag inte hort den pa en hel dag ar en annan 5a. Fredagen jobbade jag till 22 och kom hem till lagenheten dar jag fann flatemates och Clare, sota lilla Clare, hon hade bakat pepparkakor till oss! Vi drog i alla fall ut en snabbis pa en krog i krokarna dar vi bor. Trevligt, men jag var supertrott efter jobbet.

Pa lordagen sa blev det stadsvandring, jag gjorde allt! Var nere i hamnen, botaniska tradgarden med fladdermoss(huuuh), gick aven upp till Opera huset och pa sa satt sa hamnar man i Circular Quey, darifran gar alla farjor och ar mycket mysigt!

Sondagen sa tog jag mitt pick och pack och satte mig pa en buss som skulle ta mig till en beach som heter Bronte. Den ligger nagra kilometer ifran varan beach som vi brukar ga till. Jattefint var det dar! Clare hade aven berattat att man kan ga kustvagen tillbaka till Bondi, sa da gjorde jag det, och sa vackert det var! Utsikten var otrolig! Nagra kilometers promenad dar och nar jag kom hem sa drog killarna och jag och sparkade lite boll. Mycket bra helg i sin helhet!

Och i morgon, tisdag, ar det invigning och det ska bli superspannande! Den har veckan har jag 4 arbetspass och jag hoppas att det fortsatter sa, lagom mycket jobb! Skot om er dar hemma och jag alskar era kommentarer, det ar ju ni som gor det vart att skriva! Puss pa er!

For jag har bara regn hos mig *sjunger*

Well well.. It's raining again. Me and Michaela are starting to think that we brought the crappy weather from Sweden to Oz.. hmm that would be bad bad bad!
Work is going good and we are getting loads of compliments both of us. Everything from compliments about our dresses to our great personality ;D And what to say, we like it!
Since work is taking so much from our time right now we haven't had time to do so many interesting things other then study wine lists, cocktails, menus, beers and champagne to learn EVERYTHING! But it feels kind of good to test your boundaries :)

I was working alone Monday as a waitress at Goldfish which was strange since we always have someone that opens and the other one closes. hmm.. but all went well and I was happy other then the fact that I wanted to chop my feet off ;D

A couple of days ago I went to meet Karin (a Swedish girl from work), her boyfriend and Michaela after work was done. We had a blast drinking some strange wine and eating great food :D



Tonight i am meeting up with a girl I worked with at the big sale out, Tone. And god she is loads of fun and so nice! And she looks like SUSSI! insane... Then Clare is going to come too and Karin, her boyfriend, Christy and her friend :D Poor Michaela is going to work but I guess she is meeting up with us later ^^

The 16:Th is the big opening at goldfish, that is going to be exciting!

But for now..... Take care darlings!


Varat fina hus. Samt Vardagsrummet

Koket

Forsta dagen pa Goldfish!

Sondag, andra advent hade vi var forsta arbetsdag. En lugn sondag eftersom de bara oppnade dorrarna for att se om det var nagot sug efter en cocktailbar. Och det var det. Lite i alla fall. Fick servera nagra drinkar, en flaska vin, tappa ett glas och allt vad det nu innebar att vara servitris. Som tur var sa tappade jag mitt glas inne i disken, phew! Allt som allt sa gick det bra, och just nu vet jag inte nar jag jobbar nasta gang, men Jennifer har ett pass ikvall. Helt sjalv! Lyckoost!

Sjalv far jag val luska ut nat spannande att gora. Men det ska nog ga finfint.

Helgen som var inneholl ett besok pa Coggee beach for min del, Jen var hemma och kurerade. Fin strand som man tydligen kan ga fran langst med vattnet till varan lilla Bondi beach. Nasta dagsutflykt kanske. Har aven lite tankar pa att styra kosan mot Melbourne i Mars, for att se F-1 och kanske en liten tripp norrut, runt pask. Men da maste vi boka om resan hem, och jag masta snacka med chefen. I don't know if i dare...

Fler ackelpackeldjur ocksa ska ni veta. Nat sjukt litet kryp som Jennifer hittade under min sang, hoppandes(!) som en grashoppa men med lar som en jakla groda. Jen dodade den och slangde ut den samtidigt som jag satt och tjot i sangen. Om det hade varit over dar sa hade det liksom varit okej. Men Icke sa Nicke. Lilla acklets kompis hoppade runt under min sang ocksa, lika acklig som det doda ackelpacklet. Vart tvingad att doda den har och tja, vagar inte braka med roommate, hon kanske kvaver mig i min somn da. Nu ligger bada acklen i varan buske utanfor huset. Har en kansla av att det inte var dem sista krypen vi kommer doda har...

Foodtastings and sofisticated coctail gatherings

Well well people. So what have we done since the IKEA trip on Sunday (When I just had 2 hours of sleep, for the record) ;D We killed another cockroach. Or well we didn't but our flatmate Sean did.. yuckie!!! I hate hate hate them :-S

Other than that we have been tasting drinks and the menu at Goldfish. And all I can say is that it is Yummo! And one of the bartender guys ain't that shabby either ;D

Yesterday I went out with some of the girls from work to go out for a couple of drinks, we managed to get our boss Ben out when we told him that he was going to have an entourage of 6 girls following him around. hahahahaha. Well we had a blast! Nice drinks and some pool playing at the last place we went to. Guess the pictures are going to pop up as soon as we remember to ask about the Internet... *Gaaaaaaaah*

What else.. hmmmm.... I had to screw the whole vaccumcleaner apart since the lads had broke it.. or well Keith.... damn you Keith ;D It was more dust and hair in the fans and filters than in the actual dust bag -_- well well what to do what to do...

Other then that I have managed to get really sick.. barley have a voice at all which is annoying. Especially since I start working on Sunday.. And talking about work and all, had a really bad day there when we were going to carry trays around with drinks on them :( I'm on a pill which makes you shake like hell, which doesn't really make it easier for me. I just felt like such an idiot and a looser. :( going to try to work with it I guess, but it was damn hard.. well well. *sigh*

Hope you guys are good back home.

big hugs!!
