Magic of christmas

This is the first time in years the christmas spirit didnt reach me. The absence of snow, my going to church, our missing the disney christmas show and "Dinner for one", probably didnt do much to encourage more than the feeling of an average day. Yet our trip to sweden was filled with all the other emotions associated with christmas. Above all I was filled with joy and sadness. Joy to see the harmonious way my old grandparents handled their life. A life that is affected by slow movement, poorer eyesight, and poorer memory. Sadness to know that, knock on wood, this could be the last time I see them again.

Merry Christmas

This year my family and I are spending christmas with my grandparents in Sweden. We've decorated the tree, baked our seven sorts of christmas cookies and sent out the annual bragging christmas letter. We are in other words ready to leave the civilizaton and retreat to internett and obligation free Skåne.

Have a merry christmas!

My exams have finally come to an end! In a pathetic atempt to get into the christmas spirit I tried listening Josh Groban and Peter Jöback christmastunes, but that was useless. I am so rubbish at winding down after exams, but I've channeled my frustration into sewing my christmasparty dress, accompanied by Glasvegas and their christmassy song A snowflake fell (and it felt like a kiss) (check them out on http://www.myspace.com/glasvegas).

Im also getting my diet on track, so tonight Im making the girls pizza with brie, avocado and tomato topping. So far this month my diet has consisted of this;

Pstereo

My favourite festival is over for this year. It was a massive success!!
Thousands gathered at the Marine to experience Dum Dum Boys, Clutch, Datarock, 1990's, The South, Metronomy, Lille Bjørn Nilsen and several other artists performing at the festival this weekend. Between the trees, overlooking the beautiful Nidelv (river), with the moon and the old ruins in the background of the canonstage, and the studentunionbuilding visible behind the mainstage, Pstereo at the marine made its way into history.

I didn't really get to experience that much of the musical aspects of the festival, as I ended up being responsible for keeping the volunteers fed and happy while they worked for us. Here are snaps of some of my fabulous workers, whom I could not have managed without!

I suck

at webdesign
at relaxing
at practising at playing my poor lonely guitar
at talking BS with strangers I don't feel like befriending
at letting go of summer

I miss those warm evenings. I miss starring at the sea, stars and moon when the sun has set and the sky is pitch black. I miss running around in unmatching tiny shorts and boyish t-shirts playing fun summersports. I miss dressing up in pretty dresses. I miss eating at resturants. I miss feeling the cold (I know I complain too much before I jump in) water between my toes. I miss the friend I feel like I've lost.

Despite this, I love fall. I love to see how the leaves changes colour. I love going for walks, with the sole purpose of getting to the cool swings at the playground. I love a chat with a friend at our local café. I love sitting at the windowsill, watching the rain fall and the wet people walk past. I love studying, always having a warm cupa on my desk. I love the free wednesday concerts at Blæst with my friends and a beer. I love the urørtcontest concerts that always are on in the fall.
I love big wolly sweaters. I love warm shoes. I love being able to wear my fab colourful festival hat without looking T.A.R.D.

I know I started pessimistically saying I suck. I don't. Im good at anything if my heart's in it.
