"Over-biked"

Since the snow has finally melted and I was quite convinced that I would no longer freeze (that much) outside, I decided to bike to school instead of taking the bus as I have done for the last four months. However, my initial idea of biking to school and back home again somehow ended up with me...

- biking to school

- biking to the gym

- biking back to school (after a 40 min workout)

- biking to a place where I could fill my bicycle wheels with air

- and finally biking home

So right now I'm E-X-H-A-U-S-T-E-D.

Sharing a song

I don't really have anything to say tonight, so I thought I'd share a song with you insted. Good idea, huh? ^^ A song says more than a thousand words. (Literally.)

I love H&M

Whoever says that shopping can’t make you happy is wrong. Just so you know.

Prefer the real Robert Pattinson

I have nothing against wax dolls; especially not the ones at Madame Tussauds where the wax celebs are scarily alike the real person. Nevertheless, I must say that they have completely managed to destroy the hottie Robert Pattinson by turning him into one! Besides the hair, he doesn’t look like our favorite vampire at all. - He’s too skinny, his neck is too long, and he looks…old! ^^

The fake one.

The real one.

You can find more pictures here.

Daydreaming of Greece

I should really start working on my IOP (Individual Oral Presentation) in Swedish that I have for next Tuesday (which I haven't even begun with yet!), but I have no motivation at this moment whatsoever. All I can think about is getting on a plane and go someplace I've never been to, someplace with beautiful white beaches and a totally different culture...someplace like Greece.

I can't believe there are paradises like this in Europe. ^^ Or maybe it's more like: I don't want to believe there are. Because I'm still here in Sweden where the sun barely shines, and when it does, the wind catches you like a huge tornado... -.- So by thinking that places like this only exist far, far away (and not relatively close to Sweden), I won't get as bummed over the fact that I don't live in a place like that. See what I mean?

I wonder why dreaming of escaping the reality is sometimes so much funnier than being in it?

Saturday

With some pizza in the stomach I was planning on watching the second episode of Vampire Diaries tonight, but I guess that's not going to be the case now since it's almost 11 p.m. and I need some rest before "depressing Sunday" arrives. Give me a reason for why every Sunday must be like that? (With an exception to last week's Sunday, of course.)

Tonight's dinner was served at Forno Romano, one of my favourite Italian restaurants to have pizza at - YUMMO is all I have to say.

Mini vacation

I am extremely sorry for my terrible update, but this week has just been bombing me with stuff to do…However, it’s always to better to be late than never, right? So here are a few pictures and “notes” from last Sunday’s cruise with Birka Paradise. ♥

Me and my beautiful sister enjoying the really good buffet. - I have no idea how much salmon and seafood that entered my stomach that evening, but it was a lot, haha...;)

The evening's outfit

We were so lucky going on just that Sunday, because suprisingly enough, (for us at least) there were lots of "Swedish celebrities" entertaining that day. Which explained the large amount of young people being there that usually don't go on cruises on Sunday-Monday cruises...

Sibel was one of them...and gosh, she was tiny and cute!

Another one being really cute was Erik Saade, hehe. :)

Then there were others like Ola Svensson, Neo and Molly Sandén (Erik's girlfriend :() there too, but the other pictures are all very blur, so this will have to do. I must say that it was a really good and well needed trip for me. Because besides having a lot of fun, I also got to forget about reality for a while and just relax - and that was the best part of it all I must say...

Off on a cruise =)

Now I have finally finished packing my little bag, and it lies on stand by in the hallway. 2.20 p.m. the bus is leaving for the for Stockholm, which means that I still have some time left to do some final touch-ups. Such as hair and makeup, haha.

I might sound like a child now but: iiiihhh, I’m excited, haha! I haven’t been on a cruise since forever and it’s just going to be so fun going on one again. I remember when I was younger, like 10, and we used to go on cruises all the time. Gosh, I was so sick of those stupid cruises back then…but not now! Doing things too often always spoils the fun is what I normally say.

Clarification

Before I write any further, I want to clarify something for the readers of this blog. And that is that whenever I abandon my blog for a few days or so, it is because I’m super-busy with school or just too tired (often a result of school, haha) to post anything. I really hate when it gets to that point, but as I put education as my priority number one, that’s how it is.

And studying is what I’ve been doing a lot lately. Especially because I want to get done with as much as possible so I can enjoy the 24 hrs cruise I’m going on tomorrow. (Mami’s Christmas present from sis and me.)

Alright, break is over for my part, and I should get back to history. However I promise to tell you more about the trip later.

Hm-hm I am wearing a tank top. It just doesn't show on this picture OK?

Swoosh, and I was down

This morning’s accident forces me to write another reason for why I want summer, and that is because: I want to be able to walk (note: NOT run) outside without slipping on some stupid ice. -.-

My brilliant slip is illustrated below (minus the person trying to help me up though). You might laugh, but it really hurt! ^^

Cravings

The snow has finally started to melt, but I'm not content yet. I want to be able to wear light outfits and flip flops everytime I go outside. I want to be able to eat ice-cream without getting a "body-freeze". I want to be able to forget that it's late, because it's still light outside...I want summer. ♥

Powerwalking with sis last summer ^_^

Jie Jie & Mei Mei night

Since it was only me and sis tonight, we decided to make it easy by making a 5 min express visit to Coop buying their take away instead of standing in the kitchen trying to cook something ourselves. And I must say that was a very good choice of us to make, because dinner was delicious and there were no dishes to take care of afterwards!

Not to forget the most important part though: who has the time and energy to cook even the simplest Mac n’Cheese (even though mine is super good, haha!) when the season premiere of Gossip Girl is aired? Not me at least . ^^

A vegetarian bean-box was what was for dinner tonight. Mmmhmm, I must say. ♥

Proud of myself

The best thing about school is when you receive a good grade. Not only does it show that you have put an effort into earning that grade (with exception to those super-talanted slackers that we "real humans" don't like very much), but also that you have learned something, and being confirmed of that is just the greatest feeling.

This week I got a 7 in Economics and a 6+ on an English paper. So sorry to say this, but I am proud! :D

Hahaha...I will try not to smile like that though.

Like a tired zombie -.-

Wow.

I think these previous days have been more hectic and exhausting than test week last fall...Besides doing volunteer work for 6.5 hrs in two days, I had school to cope with. Which in other words means: assignments to hand in before I have a chance to sit down. Seriously, ever since Tuesday, I've been like a half dead zombie walking around...:/ But luckily it is Friday today, so I am going to really really recharge my batteries so I'm on the go again for Monday. I just have two lessons, ½ a Chinese class and a visit to the gym before I can do that...But I'm hanging in there!

Friday's breakfast...

and a very tired Sandra.
