a blog about: the optician

So I got up early today, so I could make it on time to the optician, and when I finally get there it happens to be that I forgot like everything at home.. All the papers that were needed & so on... So they gave me another appointment, today at 5.40.. So I suppose I have to go back later again. Ugh.
I guess I'll just be chilling all day today, and then when my friend, Emma, gets off work (she's a lucky bastard..well that's another story) we'll go and drink some coffee and just chill :]. 
Later on tonight my dad and I are leaving for Stockholm, I'll be gone until thursday. It'll be cool.
Oh well, I'm out.
Bye.

a blog about: i run this

Hey fellas!
I'm back!
Only for today though, and maybe tomorrow too and then I'm gone for Stockholm until thursday. 
Going to my grandma's with my dad.. I suppose there might be some shopping getting done while being down there, and of course I'm going to hang with my cousin too! 
We went sailing for the weekend..  nice! It's finally summer!
Came back home today. I went to town (well we actually live IN tow, but you know what I mean) and I bought some stuff.
GUESS WHAT; After being in town, I was just sitting here being bored so I decided I should go running, which I did - around 'the lake',  LOL, almost 3 miles. It felt pretty good, but it took me 27 minutes though. I got to improve my time. Oh well.
Now it's time to take a shower and then I'm getting ready for the big final in the European soccer tournament!  It's Germany vs. Spain, I don't really know which team I should cheer on.. Probably Spain (even though I know Germany probably win.. cause they already did like a 7682346723 of times). If Spain doesn't win it'll still be all good, cause then I can be happy for Lisa and Clara :].
Well. Time for me to get going.
Bye!

No nails painted.
No running.
No tidying.
No Kaffe Latte.
Just being lazy lying on the couch watching soccer.
I should put my to-do list on fire.

Laura Alexis

a blog about: on my to-do list

Lately, yall, I've been pretty lazy. More like really lazy (I'm the fattie now. lol)..
I didn't even type a blog entry yesterday :/.
Since I came back home I've been thinking that I need to get my ass out of my room and go running. Do you think I have..? Of course not.
Yesterday I went to my friend, who lives like 3 miles away from me, normally I would've went there by bike, with no complaints,  but yesterday I was thinking; Nahhh, I don't want to ride the bike, what if it starts to rain..? So I asked my dad to take me, and I was supposed to go home by bus or call my parents to ask them to pick me up, of course I made a quick phone call instead of walking down to the bus stop.
I really need to tidy up my room, in a few days there will be more clothes in my room that in my closet. Crazy.
I need to paint my nails too, they're gonna be red, I was planning on doing it today, but my dad told me there's a soccer game tonight, so I don't know if there will be time enough left over to do the painting.
I suppose I gotta get stuff going. I can't sit around like this any longer, but then again, it is summer vacation and this is my last day of.... work.
I need change! I need to get busy. I'll probably start it off with a home made Kaffe Latte tonight..?
Yeah, it does sound good. A Latte it is, hopefully.

a blog about: a tv and some taco bell

After some complications, some googling, and a smart Laura; EyeTV is finally installed on my computer. Which means I can watch all the free tv channels on my computer.. that's pretty tight. 
I know I was gonna blog about something else too, but it left my mind a few minutes ago. Well, I think I'm gonna eat something now, Taco Bell (Me and Mr. Wolf (uuhm, wtf) were talking about it not too long ago, I guess my mind is craving some Cheesy Beefy Melt, lol) would've been nice, but since I'm not in GVT anymore I guess a toast or something similar will do good too.


By the way.. are y'all liking my granny-curtains-layout?

a blog about: work

Today is actually the first day I've really been working... OK I lied, I've been working the other days too but.. yeah today I haven't been online as much as before. It took me a while to get started too though, lol. I've been working on  a Web page! It's actually really fun, but I'm kinda stuck now, in a dead end.. I messed up the .html file of one of the pages so it won't work at all now.. I gotta wait for my dad to get here so I can get the file from the other computer (it's luckily saved there too.).


It was my lucky day today! The dude with the sweater was wearing the same sweater again, but it's not the same thing since he haven't (of what I've seen) worn it since a week ago.. I guess it's a finito on the story of The Dude With The Sweater.. kind of sad....... not.

Oh well.
Gotta go (not really, I just can't think of anything to blog about)..
TTYL losers!

a blog about: a proud member

It arrived today. The card that proves you're a member. The golden card... uhm not quite but yeah, at least I'm a very proud member of STF (The Swedish Tourist Organization) now, lol.

And I went to make an appointment with the optician so I can get my driving permission a.s.a.p. Yao. And! Jenny gave me a gift today.. a card deck, a very special one.. an E.L.J. one!

a blog about: the layout, a dream and an emergency

Hey, Hi, Hello, and welcome back to my fabulous blog.
I've been gone for a while, my family  and I spent the holiday at our summer house... Pics can be found on MySpace. I might upload some on Pixbox too, later on.
Anyways. I'm trying to type really, really fast at the moment and get this blog entry finished asap. There's an emergency at the moment, I really have to run to the bathroom in a second or else my bladder will explode.. I guess it has to wait for a while though cuz yeah I find my blogging more important.
Well, I don't really have anything to tell y'all.. except my dream that I had two days ago.

So this is the dream:
Me and my parents went to a Sweden vs. (I have no clue who the played) soccer game and the other team was winning by 2-1 and there was just a few minutes left. So, the Swedish soccer coach picked me to play for the last few minutes.. and yeah, I score a goal for Sweden and then somebody gets fouled in the PK-box so I had to take the PK and I score - again! And then the game is over and everybody is really happy but I don't get any attention and I'm trying to make sure that the people knew that it was me who actually scored the goals. And then, all of a sudden, I was walking to my house from the train station and then  Jenny is passing by on her red scooter (yeah Jenny has a scooter but of the colour black) and asks me if I want a ride and I'm like "Ok!".. and then we're sitting in a car and as we pass by the police house I ask her if she heard about me scoring goals at the soccer game... (i don't remember what she said though) and then we're finally (lol it's not that far from the train station to my house) at my house and we're going to my room to call Emma to see if she wants to come over for a while and when calling we're forwarded into a voice mail that her parents had recorded. Her dad was saying something like: Hey, this is Emma's cell phone but we don't want her to talk to her friends so we put her phone in the freezer. So me and Jenny went to my freezer in my kitchen to get Emma's phone and then we're outside of Robertsvik, the school that doesn't even exist anymore, and there's Emma in her granny's black car and her granny is yelling that it's time for Emma to go home now and then they're leaving... and that's where my dream ends.. lol.

And yeah I changed my layout a little bit, it's still not finished though.. oh man, I really gotta go now!

a blog about: Why? - Because I want to make a wish.

Why is one of my favourite songs a German song that I barley can understand?

Why did I want the dude across the hall to wear the same sweater for a third day in a row just for the simple reason; me typing a blog and complaining about it & why do I run out of topics, which results in me telling y'all about this dude anyways. By the way, he's been wearning different outfits since I was planning of blogging about him, I guess he's a mind-reader.

Why does it seem to be impossible for me to copy-and-paste a template into the HTML editor of my blog and get it to work, when it in the instruction only tells you that copy-and-paste is all you have to do. This is also completely embarrassing when keeping in mind that I've been in a Webmastering class for 9 months. I bet it's some kind of special copy-and-paste function they are using, the very special kind of kind (lol) which a normal 16 years, 6 months, 2 weeks, and 4 days old teenager isn't capable of handling and managing..

Why can't I find a web page on the internet where I can create my own blogger templates, when there's a million of those web pages for Myspace layouts creating?

Why does the clock tell me it's 9.48 when I start blogging and by the time I'm finished it's about to be 10.30?

Because I wish...
...I knew German
...The dude across the hall would wear that sweater I was talking about, one more time, just for my satisfaction (I want to blog about it one more time and make some complaintments lol)
... I had more things to blog about
... I wouldn't have slept through the Webmastering classes (well.. it was only the last few weeks cuz we basically didn't do anything anyways)
... That I knew how to create a new and prettier layout for my blog
... That I had my bag of "naturgodis" (google it, lol) right next to me
... That I could take a power nap

a blog about: my friend timbuktu

My friend is right here, next to me.
My friend is singing, just for me, and nobody else.

My friend is wise too.
My friend told me that:


* generally, when finishing a page, you'll turn to the next one
* generally life passes by too fast for you to keep up with it
* rules are generally hard to live by
* we generally tell people things that we believe is too hard for us to keep as a secret
* people generally take a shot with a gun for the purpose of killing
* we generally put everybody into the same freaking stack when deciding, by looking at them, who they are and what they do.
* generalisations are generally pretty handy,
but generally totally incorrect

a blog about: ashamed, confused, and absent-minded

Damn.
Sorry... that wasn't quite the right way to introduce the first blog of the day.
I'll try again.
Hello and welcome to nothing.
Alright.. that was somewhat better than "damn", anyways...
I..uhm... made a mistake yesterday. A big mistake, in my blog. In my own blog. That is embarrassing! My brain had a short cut and I got the dates of our trip all, m to the ixed up, which resulted in: Me, on the 17th, publishing that E.L.J. is leaving for the trip within exactly a month. Which was a wrong, embarrassing, and big mistake made by the very perfect and always correct, Laura M Alexis. I have to excuse myself for being such an absent-minded person. The correct date for making it exactly a month is today, the 18th. Not the day of tomorrow nor the day of yesterday, it is the day of today.

Ok. It's all good now. I feel a little bit better, time to return to the regular blogging.

This morning when I logged on, I was kind of worried of that I wouldn't have anything to write about today. But! Dam-Dam-Dam(!!) I went to the first coffee break of the day at 9.27 this morning and when I'm entering the cafeteria to have some of the delicious coffee out of the coffee machine (this is when I'm supposed to say "the coffee machine of a date before I wasn't even born" or like "B.C." or something like that... but, unfortunately, this coffee machine happens to be pretty new and modern, so yeah, it would be a lie.).. anyways, while getting my coffe I'm realizing the line is longer than usually and when taking a second look a big plate with a with the finest salmon lying on it expands through my sight... oh hold on, I'm lying again. But yeah, actually, it was the Swedish pride "Gravlax" (Salmon) laying on the plate.., with the fact that I haven't had gravlax for like a year, in mind, it did taste pretty good.
It kinda annoys me though, this whole salmon thing, because yesterday, when blogging, I wrote that they still have the same kind food in the cafeteria, and then, for today, they, for some reason had to change it. Why? Are my dad's co-workers reading my blog, is my dad telling on me to the guy in the cafeteria, or is this just some kind of coincidence?

Laura Alexis

a blog about: addicted to blogging

I'm either highly addicted to blogging, really bored or there's a combination of them both..!
Anyways.
This morning:
* I dropped my earring in the zink, I can't find it.. I guess it fell aaaaaall the way down and hit rock bottom lol :/. (Great!)
* I spilled coffee on my white jacket + grey shirt at 9.45. (Four toasts, LOL)

After the dinner:
* My thumb got stuck between the door to the dishwasher and the top of the zink thing. It hurt! And it hurts really bad when if I squeeze the tip of my thumb too. I suppose I have to quit doing that.

 At this very moment:
* I'm Waiting for all the files from my old computer to be transferred to this, faster, newer, better, and prettier one that unfortunately has a smaller memory that the old one..
* Realizing our trip is gonna be hella expensive - 2500 SEK (like $ 416) 
(the price is including: 1. train tickets 2. bike renting 3. accomodation 4. and a membership with the swedish "camping" association).
* Realizing we still gotta pay for food for the period of 10 days, lol.
I guess my parents are happy over the fact that I'm working at the moment..

I was probably going to say something else too, but I happen to have the memory of a goldfish, I simply forgot it while typing other stuff for a short period such as 5 minutes.

And I'll end this blog with a shoutout for ya'll Swedish people wondering
"Why the hell is she typing in English?"
- Because: 1. I LIKE IT
- It also happens to be like this: 2. I'm trying to be international, maybe somebody in Angola or Hawaii or wherever people doesn't speak Swedish wants to read my blog, and I guess in that case it wouldn't be too good if I typed in Swedish, right?

In case of that tú still no entiende.
Too bad.

a blog about: btw

Today's date makes it exactly one month until E.L.J. is leaving for the trip to Vättern
naaaaajs

Laura Alexis

a blog about: only one thing

I'm back at work. It's not too bad. My dad, or actually, to be honest, it was more like our 10 months old crazy dog who woke me up around 6.45 this morning.. but yeah I didn't get up 'til like 7.15... think we checked in before 8 at least lol.

I realized that 10 months out of my lifetime felt like the longest time to me. I grew a lot, (my mind changed and I guess I, in someway, had a personal change too because when you think about it, who mixes a pair of the converse chuck taylors (with the playing card pattern) with a pair of straight legged levi's, and Lil Wayne - A Milli put on repeat on her pink iPod Nano?), and yeah my waist increased an inch or two too, lol. Anyways, back to what I wanted to say:
After coming back to Mefos, where I work at, everything still seems to be the same. It still looks the same, it is the same people working here (except some dude with really long blond hair, claiming he's listening to rock music), the coffee in the coffee machine still tastes like crap, and all of us are still drinkingt it, except my dad who's claiming he's sick of coffee and decided to drink green tea instead, I guess he just wanna be healthy or something like that. They are still offering the same kind of "sandwiches" for the first coffee break of the day. It's the same students working here, just like last year.

There's only one thing that has changed.. ya'll remember last year when I wrote about the man that always was walking around with his white helmet put on his head (for the purpose of covering his bold spot on his head)?

About that.
He is not wearing the helmet anymore.
I have to ask myslef.. why?

a blog about: jenny is stupid

Lol.. yeah JD was messing with my blog ;) ... I am not about to burp my way to freedom ;).
Anyways.. Jenny & Emma came over, once again, and we made reservations for three "hotels" for the trip, but yeah, we still have 3 more to go. I'm going to Emma's house tomorrow.. where we're gonna fix the rest of the reservations and then afterwards when we're done we're just gotta wait til the 17th of JULY and then we'll be gooooneeee!

I was off work today.. my dad had a meeting somewhere far away and he's my supervisor so there wasn't really a reason for me to go to work today so I'll be back on track tomorrow.. and we're off friday too because that's when everybody gets off for the "Swedish Midsummer" lol. That's basically when everybody eats potatoes and fish and during the whole night drink shots.. called "Snaps". If you spend "Midsummer Eve" at Liggskär, an island, you'll see people getting more and more drunk during the night and we don't really go to sleep until late. Normally I hang out with my friends Sara and Anna, that I met when I was younger and I've spent like every midsummer with them @ Liggskär.. but it won't be like that this year. My family and I are going to our "summer house" instead. I haven't been there for like 10 months so it'll be pretty nice I guess.

Oh well. Gotta go.
Gotta find my phone :o.

Yeah.. so, when I got off work yesterday I went home, walked the dogs and I went to the ATM to get money for the train tickets.. And then Jenny and Emma came by and all of us went to ICA Kvantum to buy food so we could cook our dinner and yeah by the time we had grilled the steaks and got the rest done the time was around 8-9.. yeah we had our reunion and I got an ELJ ;) lol.. and Emma and I had bought a late birthday gift for Jenny and.. we bought 3 neckless' too :). We walked down to the movie rentals after finishing eating to rent a movie.. - Ett öga rött & Shrek the third.

a blog about: cuz my friends are the best


Now it's like 3 days ago since I left America.. it feel really weird to be back and walk around on the streets of Luleå.. I'm really happy to be back at home but I'm missing GVT at the same time.. everybody I had contact with during theses 10 months are always on my mind.. somewhere in the back of my head... or clear memories keeps on popping up every now and then. I can't explain how sad I was when I left DFW.. for yall who were there got to see the outside of me.. but yall couldn't see the pain I was feeling inside. It really sucked leaving yall outside the security.. But then when I came home it all got better n when I came to my room, I found this banner in my room (they had came by my house the day before)!, MY FRIENDS ARE THE BEST! No doubt. They made me so happy I started to cry.. Oh man.. Too many feelings at the same time. But yeah. It's nice to be back. and Yeah.. I miss yall in America :(.

The last couple of days I've been doing nothing and hanging out with my friends.. a nice comeback! Lol. And were gonna have a Welcome-back-dinner on friday @ mi casa.. it's gonna be a girls night, some good food, n planning about the summer trip down to the southern part of Sweden... Can't wait!

Och well.. I gotta go.
Peace

Like a change in direction, even when you ain't planned it

To conquer, every obstacle, make impossible possible
Even when winning illogical, losing is still far from optional
