10 months left
school is still going well. i had a half day today, so i started at 1:20 and only had two lessons. tomorrow is a pretty good day… i start at 8:20 which sucks but i have good lessons (english, TOK, history and classtime) and end early.
on Saturday i hung out at Hagaparken with Richard, Teo, Floop, Sean, Saadi, Stefan, and TV for several hours. Lydia and Julia came for a while too. it was really fun; i ran around a lot and rolled down hills and we ate cold chicken and potato salad. after a while it got cold and mosquitoes came out though, so we walked to Teo’s from there, went and bought candy, and then watched a movie and stayed there late. it was a very fun day.
i like it when i actually do things with people, especially them cause i like never see the guys at school anymore cause our schedules don’t match up at all.
yeah, that’s about it. this Friday is the carnival thing at Kungsholmen. i’ll tell you what IB chooses to be the theme for our outfits and dance and crap. i wasn’t there last year, i was in England. but the overall Kungsholmen theme was Life is a Party, and IB i think ended up deciding on the morning after… i think. i’m not sure if that’s what it was in the end. but i think that’d be a fun theme if i had been involved XD you can get really creative. i like dressing up for things and don’t get to too often so i hope we pick a good theme. just maybe i’ll be able to get away with wearing a tutu ^^
alriiiight that’s it. bye bye <3

in other news, this is what the fort that Emily and i made looked like.
it was amazing. i slept in it one night. that was fun but i moved to my bed at some point in the morning because it was warm and the floor wasn’t very comfortable anymore, even with all of the comforters and blankets i had piled under me. but i loved that fort.

Fort Amazing
so i’ve yet to put the pictures on my computer, but the other day whilst unpacking and whatnot my sister and i had a brilliant idea. actually, not to brag, but i had the idea. anyway, using several of the billions of cardboard boxes we have in our home right now she and i built a fairly small but absolutely awesome fort in my bedroom. pictures will come.
this is the single greatest thing she and i have created together. i cannot express my love for this fort.

new home <3
we still have so, so many boxes to unpack and things to put away and things to hang up and things to hook up, and not even every box is in our apartment yet, but we can safely call it home now. i absolutely love this apartment and i can’t wait till it doesn’t have reminders that we should be unpacking placed all throughout it.
i am completely in love with my room even though it still has lots to be arranged.
i’ll post pictures when it’s all sorted out. whenever that will be. <3
Tuesday, August 3, 2010
tomorrow
i will be waking up at like 6:30-7 and getting ready because moving men are coming to pack up all my stuff into boxes and such. we’ve already been doing a lot of box-packing-up, and taking stuff off of walls and such, effectively turning our home into not our home.
i love this apartment to death and i will miss it dearly. however, i will also love living in the new one, i’m sure.
on to apartment #4 in our time living in sweden. bring it on.
Sunday, August 1, 2010
:D
so while i cannot say that i won’t be sad to leave my current lovely apartment that i adore so much, but today i went and saw the apartment that i will be moving into at Tekniska and omg. i care like 95% less about moving now. that is the best apartment i’ve ever stepped foot in. and it is going to be my HOME.
it’s GIANT. bigger in square feet than my entire house in the us, including the furnished half of the basement. it has a really pretty, modern design that’s so Swedish with lots of hidden storage spaces, and has very pretty bathrooms, a pretty kitchen, lots of open space, good views, a pretty as well as large balcony, and has a big, pretty sauna too. it’s a two-floor apartment with two bathrooms, two bedrooms, two living rooms, and some other rooms like closets and such.
my to-be bedroom is like double the size of my current one, has amazing dark purple paint with pretty white frame and two giant windows with an awesome view of Vallhallavägen and Tekniska Högskolan.
i also might just mention that the building is extremely close to like five bus stops and also very close to the subway stop. so that’ll be very convenient in going to school and whatnot.
i am in love <3
