Sleeeeeeeeep
I am so drained of energy.. Maybe that’s good in a way? I’ve been working two 11-hour shifts in a row, and thank heavens today was just a half-day shift. I’d die if it was another 11-hour shift. Tomorrow is another half-day shift at work so I’ll manage to make it out alive.  I’ll be working for the rest of next week with a day or two off, trying to work as much as...

Merry Christmas!
Seems like the cookies and milk paid off, there were presents under the tree in the morning! This year it seems the majority of my presents are all pink! Yaaay! A wallet, a new bag, a pink purse from coach, bathing sets, earrings, amazon kindle cover in pink, an amazon kindle 3 [On its way], a -pink- rouge brush and money! Seems like I’ve been a good kid this year.

Movie marathon?!
So… like I mentioned a few days ago, I had a pretty hectic few days. On Tuesday morning I arrived at work by something-past 9 to have breakfast with my colleagues. We had breakfast together and then proceeded to watch the previewing of Narnia: The voyage of the Dawn Treader. After grabbing a burger in town, we ran back to the movies to watch the previewing of Megamind in Swedish. I hate...

Ultimate time-management......Or not.
Another week has flown by and in just 5 days we’ll be opening presents and wondering which one to use first. I’m dead tired from working today, probably because I was really hyper all day.  I had driving at 1:40 PM, it went alright, I just forgot to stop before a round-about and almost collided with someone else, but that’s okay. It’s the snow’s fault. Tomorrow...

How did we end up here all over again?
Warning: Past-midnight rant. It scares me.  It genuinely scares me how fast this year has gone by. I know that we all say “Wow that went fast” as each year reaches its end but 2010 almost feels like it’s lasted shorter than a blink of an eye. Bits of the year that I remember feel just like yesterday. A year ago today I had just handed in my final ToK essay and Extended...

Exercise, excessive cookie-baking and continuous...
Again, I’ve managed to dodge the blog.  I can think of only two words to sum up this week of inactive blogging. Christmas shopping.  The week has been all about shopping and eating and shopping some more, I’m sure I’ve been to every store in town by now. Or at least walked past them all on more than one occasion.  On Wednesday I had a Christmas lunch with my colleagues at...

Waka waka eh-eh~!
The radio woke me up this morning- I was not happy. Piggie came over for lunch and we played Just Dance 2. It’s a great game- keeps you laughing the entire time and you constantly feel like an idiot, and it has a rather wide selection of songs so it won’t get boring or old too fast, too bad we only danced to one song.  By 2 PM we headed into town to dilly about and buy some gifts for...

I've caught a cold
I’ve recently caught a cold, I can’t breathe through my nose. I got my hands on nose-spray today so I can breathe through my nose for 2 hours at a time before I have to use it again. Breathing through one’s nose is rather helpful.  It’s past midnight and I’m dead tired. I came back from work at 11 PM- a little later than planned.  I had driving in the morning, he...

Obviously I had nothing else better to do than bake a batch of 42 saffron buns. Besides, it’s Lucia tomorrow! I suddenly feel very Swedish.

Slow mornings...
I woke up about an hour ago, and what did I see outside my window?  Green grass. The snow has melted, leaving behind a fifth of what it used to be. From the upstairs windows I can see traces of ice and snow still clinging on to my neighbours’ rooftops but the trees are bare once more. Tonight I’m supposedly bringing my parents out for dinner. They want steak.

Friend-filled Wednesdays
After a nice sleep-in I got to flipping through the pages of my driving book. Then I had a driving lesson where I skidded through ice and sleet and parked for a bit apart from the usual highway speeding and zig-zagging through town. After the lesson I came home to find Piggie parked outside the house, waiting for me to open the door. We called Adrian and met up with him on the bus to town and...

A post lacking content
Tumblr has been acting weird these past few days, scheduled maintenance and sporadic server crashes- that was a shame seeing as I would have recalled what I did all day from the same day, than looking back trying to type something out days after. For the past week I’ve been at the cinema 5 times, twice because of work, the rest of the time watching movies.  On Sunday afternoon I...

A hint of Christmas in the air
We’re into December and dizzily counting down the days to Christmas. To contribute to the feeling of Christmas one must also, apart from setting up and decorating the tree, fill the air with the scent of Christmas! Or at least the scent Christmas has in Sweden. Today, I baked saffron buns- traditionally for the 13th of December when we honour Saint Lucia.  Ta-dah!

Ramble ramble
I’ve been too lazy to write anything here…. Though that’s probably due to the fact that there hasn’t been much to talk about either.  I’ve spent Friday to Sunday at work…..Working. And that’s about it. After work on Friday I had a glass of piña colada with my colleagues, and then we were all forced to scatter home again. Yesterday was grandpa’s...
