time for litting candles...

New candle holders from Indiska

I must be the only one loving that it's getting darker and darker everyday right now. I love when it's pitch black outside so i can lit candles all over my apartement! Bought a new couple of candle holders form Indiska and tons and tons of candles from IKEA.
Mmmm drinking tea, eating chocolate and listning to good music....

Back to Pauträsk






I've had the best week in Norrköping so far. Mainly because my boyfriend took his car down to visit me for 7 whole days! It's been great weather and we've been taking the car around, eating at cafés and strolling around the streets of the city. I really wished we could live together but apparently this world wants otherwise. Anyway he got home to Pauträsk today after 10h of driving and as i didn't post any photos from the time i visit him a month ago i thought i would do it today. Guess it's abit different today though as the leaves has turned orange and red.

China...

Itmightbeboringfortheotherdrivers

A careful snake is dangerous...

Recycled - for your used pet-bottles
Organism - for your used pets...?


I still have alot of work left going through all the photos i've taken during the last 3 years... I found these photos from China as i was going through that album and i couldn't help but post them...
It's so funny how the Chinese translate words into English and i remember how weird we thought it was that they didn't care hiring an English speaker for that job. In China you are studying English for 9 years, the same amount as we do in Sweden but still our English is 10 times better... I think one of the reasons we talk so well is because we don't dub all the movies or TV-serie into Swedish. So kids get home from school and watch friends, simpsons, 70's show etc with the real sound. We have subtitles but even though you read it i think you automatically listen to the voices aswell. This is not how it works in China...
My brother is travelling in China now and i envy him, it's a very special but beautiful country.

another week has come to an end...


Sunday night and another week is waiting around the corner...
Just got back from a long walk around Norrköping. It was the first time i left the appartement today...Was really tired from yesterday night out. I had a good time, but i think the older i get the less i like feeling wrecked the next day.
Today wasn't that bad acctually and i got some school work done aswell as cooking food for at least 3 days...
It's 9pm now and i'm listening to some good music, drinking tea and eating cookies - a nice way to end a week.

money, money, money...

12 books for 1 semester...

God, I'm spending money right now... and not on things i want to spend my money on but things i have to. Rent, electricity, food etc. that's all things i'm counting to spend money on, but all this study litterature is ridiculous expensive! I've bought 12 books in the last couple of weeks and money i would normally spend on clothes and coffee shops now goes to pay these bills. I did managed to buy them all second hand from older students and if i'm lucky i will managed to sell them all to the new students next year. It's ironical because the one book i had to order online is the one book we have to read this week and it hasn't shown up yet...

It's also hard to resist not going out to eat on restaurants, having drinks, coffees etc when I just moved to a new city with alot of new places to go to and new people to get to know...
We do get money from the government but it's not a huge amount and i'm pretty sure i need to take loans next year...yippiee...

Okey there's been a cleaning day for me today. I've done laundry, cleaned the apartement (it's tiny but it gets dirty very quick, like a little child), and done some food shopping. This cleaning is nothing compared to the cleaning i need to do on the computer. The space is limited and i'm pushing the limits, at least according to my boyfriend. What does really take so much space? 3 years of travelling; photos, photos, photos!!!
Well i spend a couple of hours yesterday and today orginazing and deleting the photos i don't like or like less then others...
I think i gotten more then half way through the US. This is tiresome! Especially when you now it has to be done.
Well i've had some fun too this weekend. We went out with a couple of people from my class friday night and last night me and Fanny took chillin' in her apartement with candy and a movie. We watched "let the right one come in". It was good but weird. I've red the book and didn't like that some parts of it was missing.

School tomorrow (it feels weird saying that after being away from it so long...) which i'm acctually looking forward to. We're only having a group meeting were we're gonna discuss 2 photos/commercials. Everyone likes this and are motivated, big differnce from high school.

haven't slept to much the last couple of night (alcohol does that to me) so i'm going to go early to bed. Good night y'all=)
