9) Innocence




Innocence
By: Kathleen Tessaro

Easy beach read. The perfect book to bring in the sun, but it did annoy me quite a bit, not sure yet what I think about it but it is for sure a chick lit that is easy to read and you will finish in a couple of days. Cute cover though.

Last night I followed a couple of friends to olstorp where Lasse-stefanz were playing (not my type of music).

Have not bin dancing that much in ages and my bruised feet from friday night imporved in size and colour.

But we did have fun and it was just an awsome saturday night on the country side with people in all ages from 18-80.

will definately go bcak there someother night for sure, it was just so laid back and easy going and weather couldn't have bin better.

Saturday in the sun


Today me and M have just relaxed by the lake all day and trying to soak up the sun and recharge the batteries for tonight.

Allsång på Husaren

On firday night me and a friend went out in skövde and attended Allsång på Husaren. There were a ridiculous amount of people out and it didn't take long on the dancefloor to get briused feet (one I'm still recovering from).

It was really fun, but I was stuggeling alittle no guys were flirting with me! not used to that and well it didn't really cheer me up, but I had fun anyway and just tried to dance and enjoy my time there.

Dancing was more moving w the crowd since it was so packed, and the strobe lights were not even funny (are they aloowed to have them on for an extended time?!) and the smoke machine was a big fan to on the dance floor so bad that pccasionally you could not see anything thourgh the smoke and the strobe lights (got a claustrophobic feeling from it). So you had to feel yourself around where your friends could be and what was going on. Thank god the dance floor was outside, but my throat on saturday felt like I had bin in a smoky pub last nihgt and smoked a couple of tomany ciggaretes.

I'm starting to feel proud over myself, in the last couple of months I have only smoked ones when out & wanted to strangle myself afterwards (didn't enjoy it) and it looks like i'm getting past the testing bit to, bc I regret it as soon as i have taken a drag from it.

Mamma Mia

This past weekend me and a friend headed to the cinema to go and see Mamma Mia the movie.

What did I think, well it was good and although I'm a big fan of musicals this one was alittle over the top for me. Saying that Abba for sure made some great songs and the actors played it really well.
But nothing I want to go and see again soon, or rush and buy DVD when it comes out. Am happy I have seen it.

I'll give it 3 bambies.

An upgrade?

My cats scratching tree have become to small and I need to upgrade it to a larger one.

This would be the dream one, but I think I will look for a little smaller one. They are getting quite big and I think a decent tree will give them what they need in exercise and luxury.

Sick

This is what I have bin feeling like today:

In what order to read them?

This is the pile of books that I'm aiming to finish this summer (yes looks quite daunting), not sure how far I will get but some more will be finished by the time school starts again in august.


which book do you think I'm reading at the moment?
I will give u a hint: its iin english and written by a male

How many books do you actually think I will finish?

Lars Winnerbäck

I made it to the concert in the end, and only 10 min late. Quite proud of that since I was in stable from 13.30-16.00.

Unfortunately Miss Li was sick so that part of the concert was cancelled, so thrid time is the champ? Have bin to two concerts were she was supposed to perform but was sick, so I'm really hoping that one day I will see her live because I actually like her music alot.

Maia Hirasawa was coiming on stage when we arrived (yes we missed the first performance due to starvation) and she was just AWSOME, the perfect music to sit in the grass and listen to, only thing missing was a glass of wine or beer otherways it would have bin perfect.

2 hrs later Lars winnerbäck came on and he played for almost 2 hrs. I'm going to be quite honest and admit that until yesterday I have never bin a huge fan of his music (okok actually avioded his songs for some reason), but WOW I'm so in love with his music and lyrics now, and the performance. I just didn't want it to end, he was GREAT!


The weather helped a little to.

Summer time sale

I have managed to find some items on sale this season to, Even though I feel like I have mainly bin complaining over what is on sale and that in the good shops there is usually a mere 30% DISCOUNT.

Well at LaRami in Skövde they decided to opt for another way 50% off on ALL items in their shop, talk about finding a gold mine of gooies. Its stores like that that also make me wanna spend money in full prise at their shop.



What I got was that dress I have bindrowling over from styelin for a long long time (thought it was long gone) and a cute summer breezy dress/ tunic from saint tropez.

There were some gorgeous boots there to, but my wallet wouldn't agree with me even when they were 50% off :(

Its a Girl


My dear friend whose horse I'm taking care of gave birth to a health baby girl on monday.

5) The Templar legacy

Hehe yes finishing books in a high speed at the moment, but this was a pageturner belive me could not put it down until I had finished it.


The templar legacy

by: Berry, Steve


If you like angels and demons and the Davinci code then this is a must to read. It has the same speed, feeling thrill and well pageturning event as Dan Brown managed with his books. Just read it that is all I have to say.

THE Gang meet again

Yesterday we met. The girls that used to hangout all through Highs school and the times before that. A couple of times a year we try to catch up when its someones birthday etc etc, but due to some of us moving away we are always atleast one short (I'm usually the one that is missing :( )
So yesterday we planned a long time ago to catch up in Gothenburg and go to Liseberg for a 5-kamp and then have dinner at a nice restaurant in town.

The company was great, I lost miserably in the 5-kamp (both by points and ranking) unfortunatley the food was not so great it was COLD nothing else to say about it, mine was warmest and that was luke warm :(

Oh well it was fun to catch up with everybody and see how they were doing now adays.

Yesterday seemed to be a day to drop stuff into floor. Just before I was going to bed my laprop crashed into the floor (stone ofcourse), to my luck this morning it all seemed fine, until the warning of flow battery started showing (i had it plugged into wall).


So I called mummy and asked what to do, was told to show up at her work after lunch. I did wetried a new powercord, one of the computerr guys checked it out, cleaned it for me so now my fan, screen and keys are all skiny and almost sparkling :D

Now I have decided to invest in an external harddrive if this happens again (have already

Hiking outfits


While Bjooti a couple of weeks ago went hiking in a dress and jeansand neat shoes I stuck to the more boring hiking gear when in Scotland.

That is:
  • sturdy boots, notice the socks to
  • The rustyred sportsjumper
  • rain jacket (notice i have 2 w me)
  • sportscap
  • pants that does nothing w your ass
  • yhea ofcourse a heavy, huge backpack on my pack to top it all off with.


Here are some gorgeous snapshots of me in scotland.

3) Shantaram

This is one of those books i started a while ago, but due to its mere size and hardcover this is not a book I can travel with so have only had time to read it while at home (not much that is).


Shantaram
by:Roberts, Gregory David

Awsome, page turner took a while to start getting the feel from it (approx 200 pages) after that I didn't wanna put it down util I had finished the last page. This one moves you and makes u feel what he is feeling, sick, happy,misrable, hungry etc etc. A warning is that if u don't like books about misery, death, sex, drugs and the maffia its not for you. Other wayss my word of advise is don't the the thikness of the book scare you it is just magnifcient to read.

Summertime reading

As with the rest of sweden who is on holiday one of mine aboslute favorites to do is just read and relax in the sun, during my trip or where ever I am.



I will give you guys a brief review of the books I'm reading this summer and finishes. I have a cocuple of books i have started but due to lack of time and motivation have not yet finished this year.
I will also do a toll cont in how many pages I do managed to read this summer since actual books will be more than plenty. I plan to finish of that pile next to my bed of half read books and I also plan to make a huge chuk out of my unread books pile (more than 10 at the moment) end of summer I will give a top 5 or 10 list depending on amount of books i read.

ofcourse I start wth only brining 2 books with me to mum and dads and finish both before i have had time to get some new ones (going home on thurs).

Outside the box=also fill out these forms!

In sweden we are quitet squarae thinking in everything we do with an outcome of both good things and bad things like with everything else.

Well i went way outside this square when I started uni on a different continent and because of thihs everything I have to do when it comes to applying to things it takes for ever, requires at least 15 more pages of papers from different organisations to show that these papers are true yy degrees are real and equal to Swedish degrees, not only that I also have to show that yes i lived outside the country for those years that i studied these degrees (ehm well ofcourse 'duh') etc etc.

This mean that when u apply to be able to become a memberr of a union and hence if i get unemployed be able to get some money it takes about 12 months for the application to befinalised.

Yay great! and then came the mistake from the union they sent me a bill for that year of memebership my papers were underconsideration of a mere €300! WTF u can imagine my cheerfullnness when I opened that letter.

I have called an complained the first girl could not stop laughing when I told her my point of view (mademepissed off), second woman tried to keep her face straight but same here shse was close to lauhing. Reason well it was their fault and of course they could see my anger in this buisness and if i get some new forms singed by work they will fix this issue and remove that fee and change memberrship dates etc etc.
No I only have another 2 forms to fill out and then that should be settled (fingers crossed).
