Stars, new year, Sweden, stuffed animals and days off! Life's great
Why can't cameras take picture of the sky as beautiful as it is sometimes? I was taking a walk and I looked up and saw all the stars. It was soo beautiful and it gave me peace. When I see something like that, I can just feel in my whole being that "everything will be ok". It's soothing. I love the stars.
My christmas was interesting. Christmas eve was spent with four guys (2 norwegians, 1 swede and a dutch), loads of beer and a xbox with "scene it?" on, A very funny game a little bit like trivial pursuit but about movies. Funny. But i missed some girl company. To just chat with a girl. In that way I feel a little bit lonely.
Me and Tore was in London 21-23 December. That was great. We had a few fun but stressful days together which included a trip to London Eye, christmas shopping, photos for The Times (or whatever the paper is called), great italian food, lousy steak, Bee movie and a big hotel bed to sleep in at the 14th floor. Oh, and he bought me my christmas gift there as well:
You know the cat from "Alice in wonderland"? Yeah, he bought me a stuffed animal (do you call them that? the animals you have in the bed when you're a kid?) the size of ME! Imagine trying to get that to the airport a little later that day...
There had been fog all day in London when we were going home, but we didn't think about that until we came to the airport.... 50 % of all flights had been cancelled because of the fog, the other 50 % had been delayed. Our flight wasn't announced as delayed when we came into our gate, but then...suddenly it was an hour late. And then another hour. We left FOUR hours later than planned! And we also had to go to Belfast International Airport outside of Belfast instead to George Best Airport because it was closed...great!
I didn't mind though, I was off the 24th..Tore wasn't =)
Now it's weekend and I have 4 days off since I got New Years Eve off =) and that feels great. Apparently I'm a bad girlfriend though, because I want attention all the time but I try not to. I have never lived with a partner before and it's weird for me to be with my partner but not have his attention. But I have been totally hooked on wikipedia,org! It's great! Tore is playing WOW and I am reading wikipedia...
Today and yesterday I read about Fidel Castro, Che Guevara, apartheid, the Troubles, bloody Sunday, Nelson Mandela and Dag Hammarskiöld. It's real cool stuff.
We're having a party here at New Year. It's gonna be great. I'm gonna get pissed together with all my friends, apparently it's gonna be an almost scandinavian thing. A lot of danish and norwegians, and swedes...And a dutch =) maybe two. It's gonna be funneh!
I miss home a little bit right now, It's weird, I think it's the first time in almost a year or something. Strange. Oh, and can you understand that I've actually lived outside of Sweden for 15 months now? Time flies! And it was 6 months since I was home in Sweden so I haven't seen anyone in my family for a looong time. And I'm not gonna go home to Sweden within the next 4 months or so. Minimum.
Anyway, I have to go to bed now. I'm really tired and tomorrow is gonna be a loooong day. Cleaning the house, shopping food, preparing for party on monday. Trying not to be an attention freak and take a long walk =)
Love you guys, hope you know that. And Kasia, I really hope I can come and visit you soon! If you still want me to come, that is.
Puss puss,
cheers!
Belfast girl, Erika
