Forever 'till the end of time

And here we go again. Monday. New week, new challenges. I can say that I've been listening nonstop to Euphoria these past days. It's so awesome.

Anyway, I made my new nails yesterday. I'm not that pleased though...It may not look much, but it feels weird having so much stuff on the nails. They actually feel heavier. Ah well, I wanna try new stuff and get better at this so..

Pink flowers with blue and peal rhinestones.

Today at school I "accidentally" stumbled when I was standing up to go outside during the break and sort of fell over the Taiwanese guy next to me. He's cute so I don't mind but he might've....damn.

My empty classroom in the morning...

After school, me and Sofia went and had lunch together. And we took some pretty pictures.

My favorite~

On the way home I went to Starbucks and bought their new frappuccino, chocolate cookie crumble with vanilla pudding. It's only for a set period of time so I had to taste it before it's gone so...I bought it. But I'm a little disappointed. It was good...but it felt sort of weird with the pudding in the bottom clogging up the straw the whole time but...yeah....

OMG what an epic night

I...can't believe it. We actually won. WE WON!!! LOREEEEEN YOU'RE AWESOME!! Bringing ESC to Stockholm 2013!!!! HELL YEAH!!
-
So yeah, let me tell you about the epic night. Like I said, at 1:00 we got up (Dena never went to sleep but me and Sofia did) and then we went and met up with Lawler and then together walked to the McDonald't we were gonna meet the guys (Dena had gotten a text that said both Makoto and Sven would join)
-
Sitting and eating fat food in the middle of the night has it's special charm to it. We sat there talking for about 1½ and then went to buy snacks for the night.

Lawler and Dena

Happy Sofia

Dena and Anton

Makoto with Sven hidden in the background...

-
So yeah we went to 100 Yen Lawson and bought som stuff and then walked to Anton's apartment. Even though it's quite small we didn't have any big problems fitting all 7 of us in there. Hahah. He had conected his computer to the TV and we all sat there watching the show. In the beginning, we had some buffer-issues but that stopped after we changed the quality settings. And yeah then the show started =)

Excited!!

YAY!

Snacks! It's not OLW and Marabou but...close enough.

-
I must say I found the songs in the compitition a bitt boring. Alot of ballads and not so much...SHOW, you know. I like Spain, Romania, F.Y.R Macedonia and (ofc) Russia. But Loreen was amazing!! Soooo amazing.
When the voting started shit got serious. We just sat the, trying not to scream of joy of every 12 p we got (since by then, it was around 5:30 in the morning....) And when we realized that we'd won......Wow...it was an amazing feeling!! I think I was too young to appreciate the last time Sweden won (year 1999) but now...I felt it. And it felt awesome.
-
When the show was over, we all said goodbye and walked home. I remember being back in my bed at 8:05 in the morning. I didn't feel the tired at first but when I was brushing my teeth before that, I feelt that I had no strength at all and I felt exhausted. Then we all went to sleep and I woke up again around 11:30. And now it's 12:30 and I feel a little strange thinking about the past night but it was totally worth it. Had so much fun!!
-
I'm just gonna take it easy today and chill. Yup, that's the plan. Bye!!

I'm planning on setting my alarm at 1:00. Well my friends, it's gonna be and epic night for sure. Lastly I just wanna say.....HEEEEEEEEEEEEJA LOREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!!!

Epic preperations for epicness

Okey! Got up at 6:00 this morning. Then took an hour walk along the river in the cool morning air. And now I'm back here. Why did I get up so early you say?? Because this is all a part of the epic plan of the epic saturday of 26/5. Want me to explain it? Sure.

As we all know, on 26/5-2012 Eurovision Song Contest is aired in Europe. And even though we're on the other side of the earth and in a completely different continent, we want to watch it. Only problem is, the big ass time difference. We have calculated that in order for us to watch it live, we have to watch it at 4:00 in the morning. Did that frighten us enough just to give up. No my friends, no. We have made plans with Lawler and Anton to meet at a McDonald's close to Anton's around 2:00 and eat and then go to Anton's apartment and watch the show. It's gonna be epic.

So, my plan was to get up early (6:00) and then go to bed around 21:00 and then wake up again around 1:00. By doing that, I still get a few hours sleep and will be able to enjoy the show!! It's a flawfless plan!!! Sort of....

Ah well, I'm gonna try to make something useful today aswell, like study and read manga. Hell yeah. I might write another post before we leave tonight. We'll see!

Friday fun!

yay it's friday again!!

After school me, Sofia and Lawler went and had a delicious lunch together and I ate a beautiful lasagna. Hell yeah.

Now I'm sitting, eating my dinner, and then I'm probably gonna watch the last episode (out now) of Sherlock together with Dena. YAY!

Tomorrow is gonna be crazy. Epic, crazy and....winning. I'll tell you all about the details later ;D For now, this is an epic icecream I bought today. Enjoy.

The small black things are actually small chocolate pieces. Huh...innovative

188 cm

I feel totally uninspired. And tired. And fed-up. Earlier me and Dena had a fangirl moment and googled some Tom Hiddleston pics. This is by far the most epic one we found. It made me a little bit happier.

I GOT THE TICKETS

Forget everthing I wrote in the earlier post! I GOT THE TICKETS!! The dates were a bit different from what I had in mind and I ended up missing 4 school days but....I got the tickets!!!

I'll be back in Sweden the 22 July and I'll go back to Japan the 21 August.

AND I'll be back for Christmas the 21 December (I have yet to book my ticket back to Japan...)

I don't know how to feel right now. I feel sort of bad for missing the school days but...at the same time, I get moore time in Sweden (and I got it much cheaper than if I wouldn't have missed those days...) Sooo....yeah, see ya'll in Sweden this summer =)

Tuesday

Today went by fairly fast.

After school, the three of us went to KFC to study.

a mountain of trash...

AND let me just add that I've been trying to reserv tickets home this summer but....it doesn't work. Airchina's homepage is fucked up and I've tried 3 times to make it work but it says in the end that the land code (??) is wrong and....I dunno....and now there's no tickets left on saturday 21/7......fuck it all. I'm gonna try again tomorrow but....I don't know....they don't have any type of customer contact address either so I can't email them and ask what's wrong....like I said, FUCK IT ALL

Dreaming about Gods

Last night I had a very good night sleep. I slept only about 4 hours the night before so last night when I was going to bed (around 21:00, early, I know), I was exhausted and I well asleep within 15 minutes. And I slept gooooood~ I usually wake up about 4-5 times every night but this night I only woke up maybe 2 times. Felt amazing. AND the best part was that I had a dream about Thor and Loki!!! GAAAH! It was basically a dream about "the Avengers" but I only remember the parts with Thor and Loki (and maybe a bit of Tony Stark in a corner or something...) And I remember that when I saw Loki (because I was IN the action) I just went in to fangirl-mode. I just stood there, trying not to scream and fought the urge to just jump him on the spot....God he's hot. Pun intended.

The awesome duo

And Loki gets to have his own picture. Because he's out of the world sexy....another pun intended.

I gotta stop this -___-

It's you and me, I know it's my destiny

I finally finished watching the 83 episodes of Pokémon I got from Ina almost a year ago. Watching these episode have given me this crazy nostalgic feeling and I really miss being a kid and just fool around all the time and play all day long. And I'm just 20 and I already feel old xDD

Anyway, Ash Ketchum is my biggest hero ever and I love him to death! I just wanna set out on my own Pokémon adventure right now!!! Screw becoming a translator, I'm becoming a Pokémon Master!!

My hero!

Adventures in Kobe

Yesterday me, Dena and Anton went to Kobe!! To get there, we had to take the train for about...1 h 20 (and that includes a train change) But I like going by train so...it was not that bad. But yeah here's alot of pics from yesterday!

Delicious ice tea~

A close up of my new nails! Just simple blue tips with a glitter silver line.

Anton! (looking very sceptical...)

DENAAA

KOBE

As you can see, it was amazing weather in Kobe yesterday and very, vey HOT

Then we found China town!! A street filled with Chinese restaurants, food stands and shops. I actually went there 2 years ago with my host family so it was a very nostalgic feeling to walk there again =)

One of many food stands. And one of my goals in china town was to taste as much as I could...which I did...

Sesame balls! Mochi (rise dough....) with anko inside (red pean paste) with sesame. Sooo good~

A shrimp-ball xD

A steamed bun with pork meat inside.

After China town... we started walking to an aquarium Dena wanted to go to. After walking in the heat for God know how long, we gave and took the train instead. The aquarium laid next to the beach (Kobe is by the water) and it was...so pretty =)

The ocean!!

Then we walked along the beach to the aquarium!

YAY! They had all sorts of cool animals in there!!

Horsea..I mean...A sea horse!!

Kingdra...I mean...another awesome sea horse!

TURTLES!!

Then we went and watched a dolphin show! It was amazing!! I've never seen a dolphin show before so I was as excited as the kids when the show started xD

If anyone wonders.... that's a penguin.

Shaved ice with mango taste!

Me and my bros.

Then we came to Dena's favorite place...where they had the jellyfishes. And I must say... they are pretty awesome.

Then we left the aquarium. On the way back to the station we stayed a the beach just to feel the water temp. It wasn't actually that cold...

Check out the taning line I've gotten from my wrist-watch!! Haha!!

When we got back to Kobe-city we decided to eat dinner. And what else to eat in Kobe but the famous Kobe-Steak?? Kobe-steak is famous for being very delicous since the cows the meat comes from are specially breeded and stuff. So, we found a nice restaurant and sat down and had an amazing dinner.

DELICIOUS!!!

After we finished eating and we payed were just about to leave, they gave us these bananas. Why, I don't know. I thought it was hilarious. And then we discovered that they mispelled the one in the middle...instead of NO. 1 they written ON. 1.....Oh dear God....

After that we left Kobe and took the train home. We arrived back home around 21:30 and went straight to bed after an amazing day!!
