Canberra

Me outside the portrait gallery, waiting for Helene. And then a picture of Helene.



So. Today I went away with Chris, Sandra and their friend Lisa to Canberra over the day. Went up at 6 o'clock in the morning and at 6:45 we were in the car on the go!

They were going to see an exhibition at the national art gallery and I was going to meet up with Helene, G:s Mum. I haven't seen her since the Berry trip before I went back to Sweden so that was nice :) We had a nice cup of coffee and lunch at the National Library of Canberra, got a bit lost on out way to the toilet and was stereotype blonde xD

I had a lovely day and I hope that the birthday boy (Chris) had a nice day also!
So silly tired right now, going to wash my face and get some well deserved sleep soon :D

New years tomorrow and I am going with Alex (Chris and Sandra's daughter) to her boyfriends house in Kirribilli . Going to be sweet!

Hope all of you have a nice New years and talk to you next year!

Helene and the birthday boy :)

Bondi Junction

Ahhhh, life is wonderful! I just came back from Bondi Junction! I spend the entire day over there walking around in those old stores me and Michaela loved so much :D I have to tell you something terrible though Michaela.... That store we loved so much on the second floor is gone :O The one opposite to that jewellery store we bought the 80's stuff in. Darn it what was the name of it.. SES! yeah that sounds right! But the 10$ store is still there so no worries ;)

Bought a cute dress with flowers on it, a hat, a red tunic with flowers and a piggy bank :) Oh yes I am going to save this time too :D

I had a lovely sushi roll lunch on a bench outside and those couple of minutes actually made my shoulders a bit pink :D

I have never been this exited about being alive ever :D

Alive and well :D

I am alive and well! And super duper happy! The trip was long and rough.. Especially when you had to wait in Frankfurt for 7 hours -_- But I survived all of the kids on the plane, the Indian dude sleeping on my shoulder, the stupid and snobby people working on the Etihad flights, the crazy turbulence, the jet lag and the rain here in Sydney. Yeah it has been raining on and off since I arrived. apparently some kind of left over rain from some tropical storm outside of Australia. But i don't mind, I am here and that is all that matters right now :)

I have my own room at aunty Sandra's, with a huge comfy bed and a TV :) These people are so nice and friendly! Awwww I love Australia!

Yesterday we had a BBQ in a park near Clare's house (My future flatmate). It was so nice, even if I was jet lagged as hell!! It was me, Clare, Sandra, Chris, Peter, Clare's dad and his wife, Charlotte and her two friends from Sweden. And to make the BBQ even better, Sandra and Chris got the important baby call they've been waiting on. Baby Benjamin was born and we were all very happy and exited :D

My jet lag is wearing off and I feel better and better every day and with every shower I take :D
So now I got the wireless working on my computer so I can start looking for a job again :)

So many things to do these following days: Getting a hold of a nice New Years eve dress, starting up my bank account again, cashing the tax back cheque, handing out some resumes, catching up with people that I've missed for such a long time and more!

Wow, don't know what else to say since I am super happy and just talking loads of bullshit right now. HIHIHI! Happy to be here and I can't wait to be Clare's flatmate. Too bad Charlotte is leaving though :(

Uh oh.. Jet lag is hitting me again.. Tired, must resist... no noooo.. zzzzzzz.. no i have to stay awake... ZZZzzz.. hmm maybe just a little nap ;D

Dying?

No I am not dying people. But my dad is acting like I am. Please don't.. I love you and I will talk to you often, more often now then I did the last time I was down under since I have my own laptop this time. And I don't think it matters if I live in Skåne or Australia, I would have seen you as much anyway.
Don't listen to much to what people say, look at what they do. If they Treat you like crap, just smile at their ignorance and know you are better then them, not sinking to their level. Do not blame others about your outcome in life, take the bull by it's horns and take charge of it again. I did and it is of course with a mixture of both happiness and sadness. I will have bad times throughout my life and so does all. But you decide how long you want the dark parts to be.
If life gives you lemons, make lemonade!
Love you!

Computer :)

Yepp. I bought a laptop today so that I can easily search for jobs down under, edit resumes and cover letters etc etc. 5000 swe kr. Superb.. Will transfer some films and such on to it before I go. Oh and music :) If you want something you have to get it yourself, just do it ;)

Oh crap...

I have a soar soar throat... And this is exactly how I felt before I got the flu.. what the hell. God do you really have to test me two days before my trip? like, really??
Oh well. Had my last day at work today and it was a bit painful since the throat was fucking me up a bit. And the fact that people are retards from time to time doesn't make it better. Some of the guests today were proper retards...But oh well. I made myself some nice tip :)
Now I am off to bed so that I can go up early tomorrow to get my flu shot. Hopefully I wont get sick by then.. gaaah.. Sydney Syyyyydney here I fucking come! :D

Bye Bye party tomorrow :D

Another day is gone. And now I only have one day left at O'Connor's before I leave :)
Feels really good, but as always you get a bit nervous to leave a secure income to risk it all in a country on the other side of the world. I've done it before and I will do it again :) I still have all of my Aussie friends and they are great!

Wa wa weeeeewaaa, I am so tired. Going to do some serious cleaning before people start to arrive at 7 in the evening. And man do I have some serious cleaning to do! All of the things I'm sorting out cause I'm leaving are lying around everywhere! Oh my my... And my mum is coming over quite early to put up some Christmas curtains also. I hate Christmas curtains but she wants them up so the house is all Christmassy when she moves in :)

Oh well, better get to sleep so I have the strength to do all of the cleaning tomorrow ;D

Soon..

Sooooon, so very soooooon!

The excitement is building up inside of me! But I can't really relax for some reason. I will be flying on my own, I have never done that. hmm... Hope I can find my way trough the hellish airport in Frankfurt though.. Oh my.. Here I go again, worrying about things I can not know anything about! I just need to stop it and still believe what my grandmother said to me; "everything will work out for the best".

I am now waiting for a Dexter episode, the last one of the season! Going to be soooo nice to finally see it!

And our dearest regulars on O'connors gave me my birthday present. 500:- ! I told him he was crazy, but you can not argue with an Australian I guess :D

Now it is finally time for the final episode of Dexter. Nighty night everyone!

Going under...

Down under :D You all know by now how insanely happy I am about this! But the thing is... I can't get it! I can't get the fact that I am actually going back there again. To the place where I was soooo happy :) Oh well, there was some down moments, but you can't appreciate the good moments if you don't have some down time too :)

All of the films and photos are finally up from the last time I was there with Michaela, so enjoy :D


And I want to thank Aunty Sandra and her family once more for having me on the 26:th until I can move in with Clare on the 13:th! You are angels! And the fact that you'll come and get me when I arrive is super nice and makes me so happy to have gotten to know you :) Wonderful people!


Oh well my tree is up and it looks pretty cute. Standing there with it's lights and candy canes :D Now I'm going to sort trough some clothes .. happy times ;)

Meeting Michaela :D

So... 7-8 months after coming back from Australia with Michaela, I finally meet her again! No she does not live miles and miiiiiles away, we have just been super lazy! hahaha! And the fact that she has been working loads, found a boyfriend and that I have been busy planning and working, doesn't make it easier to meet :)

It was however great fun to see her again! She got her Christmas present and birthday present. The "F*R*I*E*N*D*S" board game and a green top. She got extremely happy about the board game which I was hoping :D I also got my birthday present which was a chilli chocolate bar and a ermmmm umm... A drink shaped as a sperm :D hahahaha! Priceless, she knowns me ;)

We went to "Coffee house by George", had a salad each for lunch and topped it of with some latte and chilli chocolate! Superb! Loads of Australia talking, which isn't weird at all since we haven't met after the trip :)

FB now has loads of new photos and film clips from Australia, and that is great! Thanks Michaela!

Now I have to go get some things done before Niklas comes over to help me with some boxes in the basement :)

Talk to you soon! Over and out!

Christmas tree and gift wrapping!

Since I am in fact leaving on Christmas eve I thought that I might clean the house up a bit and put the tree up right now ! Otherwise it would really weird putting it up the day before I leave, no point in that! And I love Christmas trees, so why not enjoy it for a while :D And the gift wrapping is going pretty darn good to be honest. Just a few more to buy and then everything is bought and wrapped. I so hope I get a laptop.... PWEEEEEEEASE *looking extremely cute*

So now I am just going to drink my smoothie and then get going, maybe throw some crap out of the cellar when I am already there getting the tree. Hi ho, lets go!

It is really happening..

18 more days and then I will be on a plane to Australia. I have been longing, cried about it, tried and begged to get back and I am finally going back :D
Can't believe that it is true!
Someone better pinch me!
:D
