jag talar ut

Klurigt

Idag har jag varit duktig, igen, haha. Har gjort klart den ~~kluriga~~ fysiken, och hör och häpna jag förstod den faktiskt också(!), jag har även jobbat flitigt med Matte C:n. Jag kör på ett nytt motto nu alltså; Om man gör det nu, så slipper man göra det sen. Jag tycker att det låter ganska bra, eftersom att det (i teorin, haha) resulterar i att man inte varje dag behöver sitta och plugga. Man är istället öppen för förslag på den sociala fronten och det är väl bra.

Juste, jag kom ju på en sak! Jag har inte ens kommit halvvägs i mina mattiestudier, har bara hunnit till Ma C och ska läsa ända till Ma F (!!).. Jag blev ju jättechockad när "Nalle", haha, sa att jag skulle läsa den kursen, man glömmer visst ganska mycket under en ettårsperiod. Jag undrar förresten hur det går för honom och hans Webcam (ett litet internskämt sådär, Emma & Johannes vet vad jag pratar om), haha.

Imorgon då? Jo, då blir det Idolpremiär, men nu ska vi inte tjuvkika på morgondagens topics allt för mycket, då blir det ju inte särskilt spännande att läsa om man ska läsa samma sak flera gånger. Det här är nog i alla fall det sista inlägget för dagen, Godnatt vänner och bekanta. Glöm inte heller att svara på min undersökning (som kommer att publiceras inom en snar framtid).

De val vi gör idag kommer att påverka imorgon

Innan jag påbörjar detta inlägg vill jag bara påpeka att detta är mina egna tankar och åsikter. Det finns helt säkert massor med folk som inte alls tycker som jag, och det kanske ändå är bra, världen hade väl sett ganska konstig ut om alla tyckte exakt likadant?

Vad händer egentligen med staden Luleå? Den vackra kuststaden ~~som vi alla är stolta över~~ verkar sjunka neråt botten. Det är ju vi som ska vara Norbottens metropol. Det verkar inte fungera alls. Och vad är det med dagens ungdom? Så sent som igår läste jag i tidningen att Stenvalls Trä, på Bergnäset, hade blivit typ grovt vandaliserat. Killar i unga tonåren som är ute och härjar och tycker att det är helcoolt att tända eld på något som är värt ca 150 MILJONER kronor! Vad tänker man på när man hittar på något sådant? De kan väl bränna ner sina egna hus istället? och se hur kul det är när de står där utan bostad, pengar, saker etc. med bara minnena kvar.

Senare, samma dag, får jag på spanskalektionen höra att det var en grabb i tonåren som hade slirat lite ~~snyggt~~ där vanligtvis faktiskt går mycket folk. Det hela hade slutat med att han hade slirat på en dam, som sedan hade fått åka till sjukhuset. Har hört att han är mycket ångerfull, men ändå, han kunde ju ha tänkt en gång extra innan han sladdade där, då hade han inte behövt köra på damen och sedan ha typ grov ångest?

Vad tycker ni om det som stod om Nordkalotten i tidningen idag då? Gräsligt? Jodå, det gör jag också. Är det inte helt sjukt vad man kan hitta på för tokigheter? Hur fan orkar man ens klättra upp på den där Lappkåtan bara för att sedan skära hål i tältduken? Fyfan vad ambitiöst, det måste jag verkligen hålla med om. Lite synd bara att de snittade sönder hela saken och förstörde grejer för 400.000, det hade ju kunnat bli riktigt coolt annars, hoppas de tog en bild!

Sist men inte minst. Fritz Olsson-huset. Så synd(!) tycker jag. Ett av stans finare hus, som råkar vara ett av de FÅ husen i innerstaden som byggdes innan 1950. Ja ni hörde rätt, det är gammalt och fult, är det inte lika bra att riva skiten? Vem villl ha kvar ett sådant ~~förfallande~~ hus när vi kan bygga nytt, som dessutom kommer att vara på höjden. Hotell, galleria, bar, kanske till och med en berg-och-dalbana om vi har tur? Jag tycker bara att det är så synd att man inte kan bevara något som är gammalt utan bara vill bygga nytt, stort och som ska "locka hit folk". Hur är det för oss som bor här då, vi är ju redan här, vi kanske gillar att det finns något i staden som inte är byggt efter millennieskiftet?

Jag vill inte leva i en förstörd värld. Jag trodde att det handlade om att göra världen bättre. Vi kan väl börja med oss själva? För mer tycks vi inte klara av.

Jag tycker att alla ska tänka till en extra gång innan de gör sina beslut. För de val vi gör idag kommer verkligen att påverka imorgon.

Spooky

Godmorgon mina vänner. Idag har jag sovmorgon, trots detta sitter jag här kl. 09.11 fastän jag inte börjar förrän 11.50. Varför? Jo för att Barbro, valpen ni tidigare sett, satt och typ ylade och gnällde hela morgonen svinhögt och det var i det närmaste omöjligt att få någon sömn när hon inte kunde vara tyst. Jag tänkte då istället för att sova, berätta om vad som hände igår när jag gick och lade mig. Jag hade släckt alla lampor, lagt mig i sängen och allt det där... Efter typ 5 minuter (om inte mer) så tänds min taklampa. Chockad jag blev! Däremot tog jag till mitt sunda förnuft och sa till mig själv att det bara var jag som tidigare hade tryckt ner lampknappen för lite. There are no such things as ghosts. Nu måste jag faktiskt sluta blogga! Barbro försöker bita sönder inredningen, mina fötter, datorsladden till skoldatorn, listerna, mitt skrivbord etc. i samma veva som Tekla (den ettåriga hunden) försöker bita sönder Barbro själv. Cirkeln är sluten.

Vi hörs.

En lång och jobbig dag

Nu ska ni allt få höra på spektakel. Hade med lite tur faktiskt sovmorgon i morse, eftersom att Miljökunskapsläraren är av jägarsorten och idag firade säsongsstarten med att skjuta lite älg (?). Min dag såg då ut som att jag var i skolan hela dagen och sedan direkt efter(!) fick jag typ skynda mig till POs trafikskola för att gå den här jobbiga introduktionskursen för att få ta körkort och allt det där, ni vet? Satt där, tillsammans med min far och typ 20 andra som var där, i nästan fyra plågsamma timmar. Snubben som pratade var ju inte tyst i en sekund! Han pladdrade på som fan och så kollade han upp i taket typ hela tiden (!) och så blinkade han skitmycket! Helt störande var det, kanske för att man lade märke till det under en ganska lång period, haha. Men vi fick ju i alla fall fika, en "Övningskörningsdekal", en backspegel och lite annat smått och gott (broschyrer) för de 950 svenska riksdalerna vi betalade för detta kalas. Är det inte otroligt vad man blir lurad på pengar i dagens samhälle?

När jag väl kom hem för första gången efter att ha lämnat huset i morse kl 9.20 så hade klockan redan hunnit bli halv 9 typ. Som grädde på moset och pricken över Iet var jag tvugen att plugga massa matte och fysik. Men det var jag som valde att gå natur, så vem är jag att klaga. Det är bara att gilla läget!

Jag belönas i alla fall med en mycket lugn dag imorgon. Endast matte infinner sig på schemat..! Jag som trodde att vi skulle ha fysik också. Vilken lycka!

Laura Alexis

Layout

Idag har det varit en synnerligen tråkig dag. Förutom när jag var till Jenny för inte så länge sedan och kollade lite på TV och så. Hade rätt kul åt ett jättefult Amerikanskt TV-program, som är väldigt populärt hos barn på ca 7-13 år. Nu får ni allt lista ut vilket program jag snackar om. Ledtråd: Peruk.

Ja juste, jag håller, än en gång, på med layouten till min blogg. Känner mig helt experimentell. Har ju bytt typ varannan vecka men aldrig känt att något riktigt passar. Får se om detta håller sig i mer än en vecka eller om jag kommer att byta till något nytt och mer spännande inom den närmaste framtiden.
Ps. Jag är inte klar med denna layout än, förresten. Ds.

Annars har det som sagt inte hänt något intressant alls. Lyckades faktiskt ta mig till det stora uppdraget att städa mitt rum! Nu ser det riktigt prydligt ut. Har dessutom möblerat om på skrivbordet, haha. Nu mer står min fina subwoofer (som, tack vare sitt utseende, egentligen faktiskt är värd att stå där den syns), under själva skrivbordet. Blev tvungen att röja lite utrymme för det nya datortillskottet. Mer än så har faktiskt inte skett idag..

Laura Alexis

Promenad

Första gången Barbro var ute på en riktig promenad i Luleå. Gick till Boulognerskogen (stavas det verkligen så?) där vid Östra och sedan tillbaka till huset. Hon var jätteduktig på att gå fastspänd i koppel! det hade man inte trott. Passade på att försöka fota henne lite grann, vilket inte var så lätt eftersom att hon inte kunde stå still i ens typ 5 sekunder. Här är resultatet i alla fall.

Laura Alexis

Nytt, fast ändå gammalt

Hej mina vänner. Ursäkta uppehållet, jag har nämligen varit i stugan över helgen. Rätt chill faktiskt.. Nu sitter jag här hemma och lär känna min nya dator, en Dell, som vi NV:are har haft ~~turen~~ att få. Har inte använt en PC-dator på jättelänge, sedan jag konverterade över till the ~~Dark Side~~, Apple side, Macintosh. Det känns rätt ovant faktiskt men det är lika bra att vänja sig för nu kommer denna Dell att vara ett mycket viktigt hjälpmedel i skolundervisningen. Yessssss...... not. Det är ju bara jobbigt att bära omkring på datorerna i skolan och så. Plus att datorväskan inte är av det senaste modet, haha.

Laura Alexis

Barbro

Det här är då Barbro, det senaste tillskottet i våran familj. Ska försöka ta en bättre bild på henne senare, eftersom att denna bild togs av en trött Laura imorse med moiblen. Bakgrunden är ju inte heller så fin, de stiliga tapeterna i stugan. Haha. LETS GO, the 70s!

Laura Alexis

Sista dagen

Denna vecka har trots allt gått väldigt fort. Det är redan fredag, 4 dagar i skolan har avklarats. Bara 2 lektioner till, sedan är man fri i några dagar. Väldigt skönt. Själv ska jag till stugan efter skolan. Vad ska ni göra?

Laura Alexis

Nu börjas det.

Slog precis igen fysikboken (utan att ha läst klart det vi skulle, haha). Insåg att 'Ja usch, nu börjas det verkligen.' De dagarna som har passerat i veckan har bara varit en liten smygstart sådär. Hade den första riktiga lektionen idag, fick såklart läxor. I både matten och fysiken. Inte så mycket att göra egentligen, men ändå, man känner att det kommer krypandes; ångesten inför typ kemiproven, fysikproven och allt det där. Fy fan.

Att börja i en ny klass är på sätt och vis ändå rätt trevligt. Det har, tro det eller ej, under dessa tre dagar faktiskt utvecklats till det lite bättre. Har dragit en "lunch" på Sub & Co. med två från den nya klassen. Riktigt trevligt att liksom umgås lite utanför grindarna också. Det är ju kul att åtminstone några är lite framåt och faktiskt vågar öppna munnen och säga hej! Vi ska ju trots allt stå ut med varandra i två år.

Imorgon är det idrott! Fett taggad jag är.

School's getting started for real.

There's gonna be tons of homework, early mornings and plenty of tests.

At least I get to know new people, great!

Can't wait for the school trip to Abisko.

I hope it'll be fun, otherwise we'll make it fun. Haha.

Laura Alexis

Klassen

Satt igår på MSN och diskuterade klassen med folk från klassen lite grand. Drog slutsatsen att klassen råkar vara riktigt dålig. Ingen pratar med varandra typ haha.. men ja, det löser sig förhoppningsvis. "Fixarn" är ju här hahahaha.

Nu ska jag duscha och så. Sedan bär det av mot skolan. En enda lektion idag då, känns rätt onödigt att ens behöva gå dit.. Måste ju gå till Alf också och snacka om datorn.. jobiggt.

Efter skolan ska jag dra och fika med Emma. Men hon slutar ~~mycket~~ senare än vad jag gör så jag får väl fara hem där i mellan och vänta på att hon blir utsläppt från fängelset.

Vi hörs.

Laura Alexis

Det råder kaos i staden

Jag har en liten fråga..

När jag var ute och promenerade runt sjön alldeles nyss kände jag mig helt villrådig;

På vilken sida av gångvägen ska man gå/cykla på?

ALLA går ju helt olika.

Vissa går mitt i vägen, andra går till höger andra till vänster.

Cyklisterna då?

Javisst, de är också helt okoordinerade.

Kan inte någon berätta var vi ska gå/cykla för just nu råder det kaos.

Stort kaos.

Laura Alexis

Inget. Inget alls.

Orkar inte skriva på engelska nu, hade just engelska med Ulla, haha.

Fick berätta ÄN EN GÅNG om hur det var i USA... Rätt leds jag börjar bli. Sen då, när jag var påväg från lektionen så stötte jag på Marita, hon började ju såklart också att fråga ut mig om hur det var etc.. Fick iaf veta att jag inte kommer att ha henne i Spanska 4.. (y).

Nu så har jag inget att göra. Har inte några läxor heller, men man kanske ska vara glad så länge det varar (typ 1 dag max haha).. Tror att jag ska gå ut och gå en långpromenix, orkar ju inte sitta här och loda resten av dagen.

Ha kul.

a random question

So.

Today was the first day of school.

It was alright.

Had to tell the class about who I am etc. And then the teacher asked the class if they wanted to ask me any questions.

No.

So the teacher asks me, just like that, out of the blue:

Do you have a horse?

No I don't.

The bummer of the day:

Me getting up early. 7.00 am.

Receiving blocked phone calls. Did not pick up, since I've stopped picking up if I don't know who's calling.

Went to the dentist.

It turns out that a lady over there had been calling me all morning. The blocked calls. Trying to tell me my appointment had to be changed to another day, since the one who was going to check my teeth was sick. At least I got 2 toothbrushes, lol.

Went lasergaming with some friends, and some people I've never met before (all friends of Baggen) today. Baggen paid for everything, even though it was her birthday thing. THANK YOU, MAGDA!

It was really fun and the red team, my team, won. Cause we're good like that. Afterwards we went back to Baggen's house to watch a movie - Wall-E. Cute!

The second bummer of the day:

Guys trynna flirt on the bus.

Emma did her thing. Basically asked him to stfu.

They kept on trying to get our attention but we kept on ignoring them.

The boys living in this town are really desperate.

Dear Matilda,

It was really nice seeing you again. When giving you a hug I realized it was a long, very long, time ago since we met the last time. I think the last time we really hung out was in 2002, 6 years has passed by since, and a lot has happened. I got to hear some juicy (not, lol) gossip about.. everything. Your apartment was really pretty, your dog, "Nos the Boss" was very C; Cute. Crazy. "Cuddlish".

'Thanx for the coffee'!

I had a great time and I hope you did as well.

I'd be very glad to see you again very soon.

Take care girl.

a blog about: the second bummer of the day

Since I got up all early I had nothing to do...

So I chose to vacuum clean the house.. I got finished with the first floor and almost the second one too, but then, all of a sudden the vacuum cleaner just stops. It got overheated and now I gotta to wait 'til it has cooled down.

Instead of being mad at the vacuumer I chose to have some breakfast and then I was fixing to head for the shower.. but then I remembered I have to wait for some guy to come (@ 12.30) to fix something down in our basement.

By the way; it's still raining.

a blog about: billy

So me and my nerdy self have been thinking about this one game.

A Jeopardy rip-off. Well, giving it a second thought, I suppose it IS Jeopardy.

Anyways.. this is what I came up with. A version of Jeopardy where the theme is;

IKEA, and the categories you can choose from could be i.e.; Tables, Sofas, Shelves, Beds... (etc. etc. you've probably got the point by now). When it's game time a player might choose Shelves, 100 points(?).

So, now it's time for the host of the show to ask the question... i.e.;

Which is the most common IKEA shelf of all times? , and then it's time for the players to figure out the answer.

It's a great game... isn't it?

By the way, we went to IKEA today.

I ~~bought~~ this one shelf, Lerberg,

and a lamp.

a blog about: misunderstanding

Sorry pals. This is only funny in Swedish:

Så, vi (ELJ) sitter hemma hos Jenny och ska planera vad vi ska ha med för mat på Vätternresan. Och så börjar vi prata om majonnäs, vilket både jag och Emma ätit, men inte Jenny (eller ja, hon har ju det nu). (Notera att Jennys pappa hade kommit hem under tiden och att Jenny hade pratat med honom). Så Jenny bestämmer sig för att gå ner till köket och smaka på lite Majonnäs... efter några minuter kommer hon tillbaka och säger "Gott", och efter ett tag börjar hon smacka. Jag säger; Va har dom gått? (syftar på JD's pappa & susanne) och så säger Jenny; NEJ. Det var gott... och salt. Och både jag och Emma börjar gapflabba eftersom att det visar sig att vi båda hade hört fel. Haha.

jaja, det kanske inte var så kul såhär efteråt.

men ändå.

a blog about: FAQ, part I

So I was reading my blog from last year. I actually found it pretty interesting! I forgot that I had been asking myself all these questions. Since I came back people also have been complaining about me not telling anything at all about my experience. I'm sorry guys, it's just the fact that I really don't know where to start, cause when I look back it I don't find the things that happened very interesting, even though they occurred. It was just life.. Take a look at it from my view, if I asked you what have happen in the recent 10 past months of your life, what would you tell me? I suppose you kind of get it, it's not all that simple, but for your satisfaction I'll give it a try and;

Ladies and gentlemen. I am now introducing y'all to my very own FAQAOQ (Frequently Asked Questions And Other Questions)

.."And then I'll be spending 10 months, crazy, 10 months somewhere far far away from home. I'm sitting here, on my black and comfortable IKEA-chair pondering about everything. Will these 10 months pass by fast or slow? What will I learn? What people will I get to know? Will I regret that I actually went to do this? Maybe I never ever want to go back home..? Will my life back at home be the same..? Will I see things in the same way as I used to or will I have totally different views?The most important of all... - Will I still be myself?"

questions i've been asking myself

1. Will these 10 months pass by fast or slow?

The two very first weeks of my year over there passed by really, really slow.

I was missing home like crazy and asking my self why the hell I was 1000 of miles away from home when I really didn't have to.

But when school finally began I found it way easier, being involved in things at school, living life, & not just sitting around did make the time pass by way faster than before.

I suppose that through the 'hard' times, it felt like I wasn't getting anywhere, but when I kept myself busy I could barely keep up with the pace of life.

2. What will I learn?

Oh man, I've learned lots, I don't know what to tell y'all. Simple things such as appreciating the smallest things in life, experience another culture, get to see things through a different view has been things I got to learn, go through and accept. I've learnt to appreciate things for what they are, as well as myself. Life isn't all that simple as we may think it is. And I realized there are more people, than I ever could think of, that are there for me, are my friends and loves me.

Don't take things for granted & to be patient are two big sources we al should live by.

3. What people will I get to know?

I gotta start with asking if I really did ask myself that kind of question?

I got to meet all kinds of different people. People that behave just like me, people that are far away from being even somewhat like me. People that are totally crazy, shy, dumb, difficult, special, nice, rowdy, rude, open minded, wonderful, pretty, you name it. Hispanic people. Black people. White people. Asian people. People I never would've get to know if I wouldn't have made the decision I did.

People equals Culture.

4. Will I regret that I actually went to do this?

Hell no.

I had my downs.

But certainly mostly ups.

It's a GREAT lifetime experience.

5. Maybe I don't want to go back home?

Bull. Of course I did.

It's more like that I want to go back to Am..

(A bird keeps on whispering the word 'College' into my ear)

6. Will my life back at home still be the same?

No. Not quite. I mean come on, the same people still live here, but all of us do make some kind of change during the period of 10 months. I see things through a different pair of eyes now, which result in things not being the same. At least my room looks the same (except the banner E&J had hung up on my wall). LOL.

7. Will I see things in the same way as I used to or will I have totally different views?

Yes indeed. Looking back at it, it could've been the whole purpose of me leaving.

8. Will I still be myself?

Not at all.

What you all see is the very new version of me;

Laura Matilda Alexis

questions asked by others

1. So, how was it?

Pardon me? This question is impossible to answer..I mean, 'How was' what? I suppose y'all are asking how was it?

Being an exchange student? Being gone? Go to an American high school?

Well. My answer is as wide as the question is; It was cool, I suppose. And special.

2. What did you do?

I went to an American High School (which was an excuse for being over there).

I hung out with friends.

I worked out like a maniac.

I gained 20 pounds (lost 7 when I came back)

I played soccer. Competed in Cross Country as well as in short distance.

I met people. I discovered the culture. I ate fast food, rode in my friends cars.

I partied. I danced. Got to know the craziest hip hop dances.

I cried. I laughed. Kissed. Hugged.

I made friends. I made enemies.

I was being lazy. Texted. Talked on the phone.

I made straight A's.

Then B's (who cares, it doesn't count anyways).

I made it to the National Honors Society.

With tons of will power, accompanied by Karen, Caylie, and Coach Johnny, founded the first girls soccer team representing the high school, which next year also is going to offer GIRLS SOCCER, for the very FIRST time in history. Thanks to us (oh, please don't. Easy on the applauds).

I could go on ALL night, I suggest you to ask for further information.

3. So... why did you decide to go, to do all this..?

I didn't want to be stuck in Luleå for the rest of my life.

To learn something. Do something with my life. Experience the world.

There's a million of reasons.

4. Laura... are American boys better looking than the Swedish ones??

LOL. All of us has different views. I can't tell you who's pretty or not. It's you, with your mind, your eyes, and your view on people that decides whether they are or not.

5. How does it feel to be back?

AMAZING! Damn, overseas is GREAT but nothing can overcome the feeling of being back in town.

I'm pretty sure I'll leave again. Someday. I'll leave and not be back 'til at least 12 months later (cause that's on my to-do list before I die. LOL)

there are more questions to be answered, don't feel like doing it now. i just wanted to get it started. prepare for part II in your very close future. by the way, the sky is the prettiest pink at the moment! oh well.

bye

a blog about: a month

Oh, I totally forgot about it. I was thinking about it ALL day long (and I decided that I was going to tell y'all about it) and when I finally decide to write an entry, I totally forget about it.

Today's date makes it exactly 4 weeks ago since I arrived in Luleå, Sweden.

Now that' is totally crazy, a month has passed by and I've been doing absolutely nothing, (well... except working). If the time keeps on passing by like this I'll be grey and old in a very short time wondering what the * happen.

a blog about: make love not war

Yesterday I realized that;

All we need is love.

Really, it's true.

Love makes you happy.

Hey, y'all. Lets love!

When I had to get dressed today I chose a yellow t-shirt.

I'd say, to me, yellow's The colour of the Summer of '08.

Later on, my friend texted me and told me that she had been hit by a car, which an old, obviously crazy, lady was driving. You got me shocked & worried. I hope you're doing fine, I'm still waiting for you to log on messenger... Well, someone once told me that the one who waits for something good, will never wait too long.

By the way, the very same friend had some kind of magic influence on me yesterday. I came up with all these wise things. Such as. Life's like a mountain. It has it's ups and downs.

Unbelievable. Welcome to the good life!

Now it's time for me to leave, I'm going to try to finish this one book, 'Las Chance Saloon', 594 p, by Marian Keys. Tiny text and written in English (which is not my 'mother tounge'). I'm ready to begin reading 'Slam'.. I can't wait.

a blog about: taken back to 2006

Friday;

Went to Älvsbyn, a small town, to do some grocery shopping & found some more #s for my favourite sport, Platespotting, lol. Anyways, later on the same evening, after a delicious dinner, my mom gave me and my dad a ride to Piteå (another town), where we went to see Gary Moore;

The concert was alright, not bad at all, nor great, we were standing in the very front (+), just like JD's mom, LOL. The volume, for being a 'rock/blues concert' was very decent, I was still able to hear when leaving the concert (+). The whole thing started out with a few songs I hadn't heard before (+/-) but then, in the middle of the concert, Mr. Moore started to play songs I've heard before (+) & by playing "Still Got The Blues", he took me all the way back to the summer of 2006, me 14 years old, putting his songs on repeat on my iPod, for preparation of the expected concert, which never occurred.

Even though the old ladies were drunk dancing behind me, old men trying to holla at me, crazy young guys going wild, bumping into me (and then trying to apologize).. I'm still giving Gary Moore and his orchestra a 3 and a half out of 5. Good job, pal.

Saturday;

Started the morning off by receiving txts from two of my international friends.

Ended up at a village (where our summer house is located) party, hung out with some guys, 18 & 19 years old ones, who were the only ones that were somewhat close to my own age. Well, I have to admit that, even though my dad made me come, I did have a nice time, talking to them guys and making fun of Mr. T a.k.a. Erik.

a blog about: stockholm, the heart of sweden...?

Monday;

Went to a café, Roasters, with Emma & afterwards I had to go back to the optician and get it over with. The lady who earlier had told me that I needed all those papers was totally wrong, I didn't need any of those papers.. Just my ID card. When passing Roasters on my way home I noticed two of my old class mates sitting over there chilling, so I had to stop by and say hi, and have a quick chat with them before I had to hurry up, to make it on time for leaving with the taxi, which was gonna take me and my dad to the airport.

Arrived in Stockholm @ my grandma's around 10 pm.

Tuesday;

My dad and I walked 'downtown', where we met up with my cousin, and did some window shopping, lol, and we finished our day in town by having some Sushi. Afterwards we just went back to my granny's apartment & we had some dinner later on in the evening, when finishing eating me and my cousin, Amanda, walked to her dad's and met up with Momina, Amanda's friend. After haning out for a while, Momina went home, Amanda & I walked the dog and then Amanda went home by train (to her mom's) and I walked back to my granny's.

Wednesday;

Once again, my dad and I walked around in town. I managed to rob myself by buying a yellow American Apparel tank top for the price of $ 35.. ugh. My dad bought a book for me too, Slam, by Nick Hornby (it's supposed to be a great book). When we finally got back to the Apartment Amanda had already arrived so all of us, including my grandma went by a ferry to an island, well it's actually a part of the town.. anyways, over there we went to some kind of cemetery where my grandfather is buried. After doing this we had to wait for my ant to get to the restaurant where we were supposed to meet up to have a dinner, so we went to the 'Northern Museum' and wondered around there for an hour (or two). When we finally got to the restaurant we still had to wait for another 30 min, but it was all good. Later on when we went back to town on another ferry my cousin and I were highly annoyed by some immature guys trying to be really cool. Well, anyways, one of the guys actually made a joke that cracked me (and my cousin) up. So he was talking to his friend (note:the friend wasn't fat)

You're so fat that when Green Peace is coming to throw you into the water the other wales will be singing; "We are family"!...

When being back at the apartment my dad, my granny, and I watched some TV & then the movie 'This is England', a great movie!

Thursday;

Went back to L-Town.. we had to stop buy American Apparel, I had to exchange my shirt cause i reckoned a whole on my tank top, on our way to the train station and when we finally were back in town we basically went straight ahead to our summer house.

a blog about: where?

So where do I start?

By replying all the new messages I've got in my inbox on MySpace?

By publishing the draft for my blog covering everything that has happen the past 6 days?

By installing iLife '08 on my computer?

By trying to call Emma (once again)?

Damn, I don't know.

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.

Laura Alexis

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!

a blog about: i should put it on fire

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?

Laura Alexis

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!

Laura Alexis

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?

Laura Alexis

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.

We walked down to the movie rentals after finishing eating to rent a movie.. - Ett öga rött & Shrek the third.

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.

en blogg om: no matter what

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

All you can do is handle it, worst thing you can do is panic

Use it to your advantage, avoid insanity matters

To conquer, every obstacle, make impossible possible

Even when winning illogical, losing is still far from optional
