Il Divo & Party pics

First off - bought tickets to Il Divos concert at the Globe arena next thursday =) And Moa has sent me a few songs aswell so that I can actually learn a few before the concert haha. I really love "feelings" and the other songs are good aswell so I think it will be a great night! And ofcoruse that concert me and Anna saw on TV around xmas... well it was funny so yeh, gonna be great!!

Have to upload a few pics from mums party aswell so here goes:







Motivated

Just got back home from a musiclesson. A guy named Patrik Larsson was there talking and it was great! He was by far the best lecturer we've had and I feel really motivated right now. He talked alot about how to distribute your own music and how to promote it. If you should do it this way or that way. And even though I'm not an artist (never will be and doesn't want to) I learned alot and it was really... hmm... rewarding? Right now I just wanna find a band that deals witht these kind of issues and try to help them out in one way or another so that I can learn more... or something!

Rocco & Jay




Was a few days ago now but since I just realized that I haven't mentioned it in my blog, well, it's time to do so.




Those two really cute boys (ok 3 really cute boys) is ofcourse Rocco & Jay. Nicky and Georginas one month old twins. Nicky and Georgina looks so happy =) Hmm... don't know what to say so I'll just let the pics speak for themselves!

Really pissed off!!

I'm so not in a good mood right now! Every single time I come to McDonald's there's something that isn't working as it should (and I don't mean the machines, I mean the routines and things like that). Or maybe I shouldn't say 'should'. Maybe I should say 'did in Akalla'. Maybe that's it. Maybe I'm once again spoiled. Akalla was great and now I'm in Skellefteå and it's not even compareable (is that a word?) to the standard of things at Akalla. Don't even know if I have the right to be annoyed but I am...

What really made me pissed today though was the scedule (sp?). If I remember correctly you have a right to get your scedule atleast two weeks before it starts. Did that happen? No way!! It's now 2½ days (see days not weeks!!) til the new scedule starts and I still haven't got a proper one. I had to write it of another paper and it wasn't even the full month. Only until the 17th! Which for me is a huge problem since I'm going home to Stockholm the 7th and can't check that scedule until the 21st. But I might actually work 18th-21st... *sigh* But ofcourse that's not it! I told my boss during my interview in march that if I get the job I can't work 7th-9th, no matter what! She said that was OK, she hired me... and she put me up to work the 9th.

This I'm not sure about but I think there is also a rule that you should have your 'lönespec' a week before payday, which is the 25th. So that means that the 'lönespec' should arrive the 18th at the latest. It's now the 29th and I still haven't got it!!!

I'm not sure I'm able to cope with all this crap! Fine, during the summer I guess it's OK cause I really need a job and I have nothing much else to do. But what about when school starts? I won't have time for this!

So now I'm going to hope that Sofie (or someone else) can work for me the 9th. Otherwise I have to call my boss and I'm not sure I can tell her "the right things". I really need to get some perspective on this. But if today was the day I for definate had to choose weather or not to continue my job when school starts - I'd leave without a doubt. It is acually that bad. I wouldn't concider continueing working there with all the crap that's going on even though it would lower my studentloans by a couple (probably quite many) thousands. But as I said, I need to get some perspective on things and then we'll see. Will defo continue until nolle p but I am really not that sure if I'd be able to cope with more.

I so hope the 'real' boss is better than this one. Or actually, she is only a part of it... there's a few other ppl there who makes my days even harder. But them I can deal with if the other boss is good!!

Rambling over...

Birthday Party

So mum had her b-day party yesterday. Was about 45ppl here =)

Anyways, the day started of with alot of helping out wherever I was needed. Moved some tables and stuff. Then me and mum went to Täby C to her makeup thingy that I gave her. I think she really enjoyed it so that was great!! Then back home to continue getting things done for the party. Then ppl started coming. Was great to see the cousins again. Like Johan said, it was probably 100years since we had seen eachother. Was a great party and everyone seamed to enjoy it! And the band Treo who play was actually really good so that was nice!

But the absolut best thing is that it's summer down here in Stockholm =) Haha

Might put up some pics later... (when I get back to Skellefteå on tuesday)

Y-buss for the win!

So I found out for sure this moring that SAS will strike (or whatever it's called) so first things first - I called them up and changed my flight to june 7th since I have to go home to my sis graduation. Talked to a really nice girl who was very helpful and understanding so that was much appreciated! But I still had to get home this weekend so I called up SJ to book a train with my voucher-thingy from last summer but that was waaay to expensive and the girl I talked to there wasn't even close to as nice as the girl from SAS so I just told her I had to think about it.

Then I came to think of Y-buss, but I didn't think they travelled all the way up to Skellefteå - but it was worth a try! And ofcourse I was right =P But they did go to Umeå and it would only cost me 285kr so I booked that and will just take a random buss down to Umeå. So now instead of about an hour long flight I'll sit on a bus from 5.30pm-6.00am. Hopefully I can get some sleep haha!

Gonna be nice to go home for a while! I miss home... Fine, this is home now aswell. But Stockholm will always be home. Guess this is kinda a home away from home... or something!

Gotta continue packing

What's going on?

So the news on TV just said a few things about the SAS strike on friday... but I didn't understand one single thing of it!! Can't wait until tomorrow so I know if they're actually going to have a strike or not *sigh* Fine, I don't care anyome if I have to take the bus to Stockholm but I wanna know so I can actually book the bus!! I'm so tired of this!! But hopefully I'm lucky and there will be no strike. I'm not going to get my hopes up though...

Happy Bday!!

Happy Bday mum!! You're getting old =P
Happy Bday dad!! (yeh, I know it was yesterday... but better late (even though I said iton the phone yesterday))

Anyways, was a few days since i wrote anything. Not that I have anything to write since the only thing I've been doing this weekend is to work. Had a few weird customers there today though, which was fun, but other than that it's been a pretty boring weekend.

Ah well...

21


So now I'm 21 (ok, I know it's really about an hour left), can't say it's much diffrent haha! Been a nice day (mostly) and Pia, Carro and Daniel was here and helped me and Lisa to eat the birthdaycake =P


Have also got a few pressies. Thank you!!! One of my oooh so nice presents was a pair of sunglasses that I got from Lisa. Gonna have them inside at Traversen at nolle p. Oh yeh... it's the glasses that Lisa is wearing in the pic hahaha


The one thing that wasn't nice about today was ofcourse finding out about the ehm strejk (heter på engelska?) the 25th which means I can't come home. Or well, in one way or another I will but I'm not sure I'll get the money back for my tickets so that's not so fun, even though it was dad who payed for them. Might have to go with Skyways in their very very tiny planes =O Ah well, that's life I guess...

All or nothing? maybe...

This time I'll write parts of the blog in Swedish (for the simple reason that the text can't be translated into english without sounding like total crap)

Jag och Lisa har i eftermiddag haft högläsning (jag läste, Lisa lyssnade) ur Thulen. Vilket gav många skratt =P Pricken över i var den korta men ooh så roliga texten om när man ska ta en sup (se nedanför):

Sup må endast tagas till fisk.
Såsom fisk räknas allt utom pankaka och ölsupa.
Finnes icke fisk å bordet, tages sup till grannens fisk.
Finnes fisk ej heller å detta bord, tages sup äfwen till pannkaka.
Hwad som här sagts om pankaka gäller äfwen ölsupa.


Now to the english part =P

Have loads to do at school at the moment. Or actually, not at school cause we can do everything at home but it's still alot!! And ofcourse, when we have this much to do I get sick... I'm not too bad but if I didn't have to get up in the morning I certainly wouldn't!

Tomorrow's my 21st birthday... getting older (obviously). A few friends are coming over to eat cake (if I don't feel even worse tomorrow that is) =) Hmm, well, I don't have much to say really... should get back to either studying or washing up (can't decide what is more fun)!

A Weekend with my bestest friends!




I'm so happy right now! Just had a great weekend with my two bestest friends!! And I'm also very happy that they finally came to visit me cause I know it's far away so I didn't expect anyone at all to come and visit. And now both of them and my lovley little sister has been here =D




Anyways... Woke up early on Friday to go and get Anna and Sara at the busstop =) Then we just went home and did nothing for a while ( = talked, opened birthday pressies, ate lunch and just hung out really). After that we went to coop to buy dinenr adn things so that we could make a birthday cake (see the lovley pic of Anna haha - been replaced with a pic of only the cake =P )!!




In the evening we went to Traversen, ofcourse I had to show them where all of us students party in Skellefteå =P Had a great time even though a certain someone was well... can't find a good word for it in english.




On saturday we went into town to go shopping. Didn't take long since it's not very big here...




Watched Eurovision Song Contest in the eveneing. And as usuall the wrong song won!! BUT rather that one than the "kallestropp-rymdvarsle-gubbe"




And then today they left... =( But we had a great time so Im very happy!!

Another more or less boring day...


Been writing about people who's comeing to Trästock... Got an email on monday saying that we were going to have another pressrelease and it was going to be on wednessday (today) so it was a lil panicy there for a while but we managed to get it done so now I'm well proud of myself (ok, not really)! But I'm very happy that it's over and done!


Anna and Sara are coming this weekend =) Can't wait!! Been so long since I saw them. Yeh, I know, that is what happens when you move 800km away from home (or well, don't remember how far away it is but I think it's something like that) but I miss them. And everyone else at home! Think I'm gonna give my lovely granny a call...


Oh, and I have a new fave singer!! Paolo Nutini. He's sooo good!! I really love his song "last request"


And finally, I think this is a great idea - post your best pics from the Love Tour. Here's a link to where to post the pics and also the rules =P


So if you went to the tour this year, join the competition!! ;) *looking with puppy eyes at Lisa so that she will remember to post her pic where Nicky is "holding" a spotlight*

Why swedish?

I really don't like swedish at the moment! I'm trying to write a short text about a girl who's playing at Trästock this summer but everything sounds so much better in english!! I mean, how do you translate "illusions of passion" into swedish without making it sound like total crap?? And ofcourse I can't think of any other way to explain her music apart from what's written on her homepage since I - first of, haven't heard of her before and secondly, don't like that type of music at all! *sigh*

Anyways, Lisa will be home soon... hopefully she can help me =P

Fantastic weekend

This weekend has been just amazing... not! I've dropped an icecream with chocolade-sause on my shirt, I've burned my hand on coffiee, I've droped a whole bag of popcorn on the floor and to make it even worse I've destroyed my fryingpan *sigh*

Can't wait till tomorrow...

Why is it so hardto say what you want?

Been working at McDonalds Skellefteå for about 2 weeks now. And I'm already tired of most people who come to eat. I mean, if they want a cheeseburger, why say that you want a hamburger with cheese on?? or if they want a coke, why say that they want something to drink? And then when I ask them what they want to drink they get pissed of cause they think I should've known that it was a coke even though they didn't say it. Same thing with icecream. They just say that they want an icecream, not which one they want. But what annoys me most is when they want a hotdog... since when does McDonalds have hotdogs?? *sigh*

Yesterdays post

Just to be clear, my last post didn't say that you can't ask me about when I've met Westlife and what happened etc. Was just trying to make a point that I won't say how. Cause I do enjoy talking about my memories (cause they're a few of my best memories) when meeting them. So if you wanna ask, then ask. Just please don't ask me how!

How to meet Westlife


Have had a long discussion with Denise about meeting Westlife, which as always lead to the question how to meet Westlife. Which was fun, cause (I think) Denise knows that there's no way to say how to do it. She also knows that (as mean as I am) I won't say anything about what, when and where she can meet them. Been doing this for so long now and the best way really is to let no-one know at what hotel they're staying at or anything like that. But, I'm starting to get a bit annoyed at everyone else who's asking. Just because I've met them more times than I ever have hoped for doesn't mean I know how to (honestly!!). So before anyone ask me again...


- I don't care at all if you think I'm mean or whatever. If I have to be mean to be able to meet Westlife and actually get something out if it, I will!


- only thing I will tell you is: be at the right place at the right time (cause that is what it really is about)


and just to piss everyone off a little bit more... nice pic of me and Shane, right? =P
