A Step Forward

I've been thinking about how to get more prepared for going into the music business and I've decided to start my own music blog with recommendations of songs, both old and new, in hopes that it might grow and get followers or whatever.  if im known online for finding music, nyu will have to take me :P not really, but anyways, i think it might be fun to find new music and share it.

so yeah.  it's called Zene A Siketek (Music for the Deaf in hungarian) but goes under the url of:

muzikforthedef.blogspot.com

also, i just discovered that a friend of mine back in dallas has a music blog that features more indie rock style of music but is very well set up and i think should be seen as well.

so check them both out if you have time :)

Back from Brännbollsyran

Ja, idag har varit en väldig intressant dag.

Historia

I morse hade vi historia lektionen var vi bara rättade några gamla IA uppsatser.

At one point Jennie and I had a bit of fun though.  Other than the awful essay ("leningraders" and "it is this spirit that is awesome!"). Anyways, Jennie gets a text from her Östras Hjältar lady and says that there is cake and fika for anyone who wants in the cafeteria.  Being in the middle of the lesson, we didnt want to say "uhh we're gonna go get fika." so jennie gets up and says we're going to the bathroom, which caught me by surprise (i thought she was kidding when she suggested it) but i went along with it and followed her.

david: "Together?"

kristina: "Well, girls do go in groups, you know"

in my head: "Yes.  Yes they do.  That is what we are doing."

so we close the door to the classroom and just sprint to the cafeteria and get some cake and cheese doodles and then speed walk back to the class, eating on the way.  almost exactly 5 minutes we were gone.  no questions asked when we came back, smelling like pear and cheese :P

Brännbollsyran

Pretty much, the first bit was: arrive, find maya, drink and just chill.

Afterwards, we said our final goodbye to maya (very sad) and went to the field to being playing.  and when i say we, i mean them.  but apparently jennie and i were counted in on their team anyways, just incase other people didnt show up.

first game was alright.  i had one kids nikon so i was the photographer of the game.  haha i took pictures of the game, but also of dogs that were around :P  our team lost and they all came and sat down.

second game jennie and i decided we wanted to play.  or maybe that was the 3rd game.  i honestly cant remember if they played 2 or 3 games.  anyways, the last game they played, we were in.  i can träffa bollen, men jag är skit dåligt med allting annat. haha.  jag kan inte fånga att rädda mitt liv. with the exception of keys of course :)

[[ I blogged for Emma today from her phone, so go there to read some random posts and read about the day and look at pictures.  --> emmahm.blogspot.com ]]

afterwards we just chilled again.  then it was off to emmas.

A So-Called After Party

Åt lasagne hos emma (såå gott!) och sen gick till hennes pappas lgh för att vi ville vila ett tag och ta det lugnt.  

went to a small get together/gathering/what have you, but it was really calm and i wasnt really speaking to anyone and i was tired and my nose wont stop running so i took an earlier bus home.

and yet here i am, 12.40zm, not sleeping, bara pratar med en vän som bor i dallas.

Important Day

I had forgotten.  Today in Umeå it was Brännbollsyran.

Today is Plano it's banquet day.  I feel like I'm really missing out.

Banquet is so nice and fun to go to...I'm kinda bummed.

Yep.

Good weekend.  Kulturnatta was fun.

This week has been okay so far.  Nothing spectacular really but nice and calm.  Except for the running around university campus today looking for one man that no one could find.

Brännbollsyran this weekend.  probably some more fun.

i learned how to play kubb.  i aint too shabby at it :) it was fun, i like it a lot.

it sucks that i wont be here this summer.  but i'll have fun at home.

yeeeah.  thats all i got.

so how was your day?

Don't forget me

It's been forever since i've listened to red hot chili peppers.  but they were playing it on saturday and it was nice to go back to my older music.  anyways.  this weekend was fun.  friday i went to mayas and watched the season finale of grey's anatomy.  we got to the end, paused it and just spazzed.  if you havent watched it, watch it now.  even if you havent paid attention lately (cough jenny).  afterwards we just went biking to burn the intense energy that had built up from watching it.  i know ersmark kinda well now :P

saturday i went home, showered and changed, and went back out.  fun fun fun.  im out of bus trips on my card though :/ so i went to mayas soccer game and even though she only played for like 3 minutes at the very end, it was cool.  except for the creeper that kept talking to me the entire game and tried to get me to go to his church...hah.  i t

exted emma and told her to hurry cause i didnt want to be alone with him any longer.

then it was to the bbq.

it was fun, i like that group of people.  someone said that if i wanted normal friends i shouldnt hang out with them.

now that i think about it, none of my friends are normal.  theyre all freaks :P buuut i love them. mostly.  then to a party in ersboda.  not as much fun as i wouldve guessed.  in fact, it was kinda just...drink more...that party sugade kuk i believe.

aaand sunday was calm. skyped home.  they have great weather right now.  but then so do we.

math mocks tomorrow.  im nervous even though i know it wont count for anything.  eek.

i met milton today!

Svenska Träning

Nu får ni ha ett post på svenska! spännande!

Jag måste träna lite mer att prata/skriva på svenska.  nästa termin ska jag börja med Svenska B HL :O Inte bra! det är skitläskigt faktis.  Jag måste få ett bra betyg om jag vill åka till NY och gå på universitet dit.  Faaan!  Jag är livrädd nu.  jag måste klara det här.  Måste.

Fan också.  Jag måste jobba på sommaren.  kanske american eagle? de ser ut bra för en arbetsplats. (hah what?)  $7.10/hr är inte för dåligt...

japp...men...skitsamma.

oy. 4 veckor kvar. väldigt spännande.

jag har nånting att göra nästan varje dag.  men jag tycker om att har mycket att göra när det är för skojs skull (?) :P

ja men....visst.

There was something in the air that night

Goddaaaaammmn it. I stayed at my uncles house last night and i spent 2 hours today listening to my cousin and her friend sing Singstar ABBA! Toppen. Now i have that fucking song drilled into my head.

Anways. Friday was great, had fun. Sucked to go home so early but until next april, i guess itll just have to be that way...damn myndighetet! we played so many games though, it was cool (hah, mood swing anyone?).

Today was calmer. Chilled with jenny most of the time, watched the office and grey's anatomy...and then went to jennie's place but milton wasnt there :'( but then we went to a playground and had fun. i miss being a little kid. i need to work on my balance, hah. i used to climb over everything when i was little.

anyways, afterwards we saw wolverine. it was great. and then just chilled.

nice calm weekend :)

Stressful Days

But it's calming down now.

Jenny had another seizure. No fun. At all. But it's okay now and shes back on medication so hopefully there wont be another one. Ever.

We got bombarded with deadlines that i did not know even existed. i have to start writing my extended essay pretty soon. fuuck. but i actually really like my topic.

i found out today that the community college offers a music business certificate. yay. now i have a real fallback option. but hopefully nyu is a go. lots of hopefullys.


aaanywho. i have a shitload of stuff to do that i really dont want to but i really should. gaahh. this weekend is supposedly chock full of fun. wolverine will be fun anyways. if we go. which we hopefully do. (again with the hopefully). im running low on money. well not really. but i dont want to do any reckless spending. im gonna need to do stuff this summer and then we're going to cyprus so i definitely need to save money for that. ugh and then i have to start paying rent in the fall again but twice as much.

i officially have my bus tickets to stockholm and hotel booked for when i go back to dallas. this makes me super excited. i can't wait to get home. i have so many things to do. six flags, amc, collin creek and firewheel and apparently garland has a good place, dollar theatre, java, starbucks, taco bell, panda express, breckenridge park, water gun fights, hurricane harbor, hawaiian falls, south padre island, camping and probably lots lots more. eek.





i fixed my comments i think.

Excellent.

I have a secret

but you'll know tomorrow ;)

She's Got A Ticket To Ride

So...Valborg. Amazing? Pretty much.
Went to Emma's and had a great dinner that her dad made. Grilled lamb, fries, salad, garlic bread. Yum yum yum. And I had my tropical drinks that just added to the summer feel :)

Afterwords Emma, Maya, Kajsa and I all took bikes to Nolia, dropped Kajsa off, and the 3 remaining continued on to Rödäng where we went to a party. We decided we wanted to see the bonfire at the university though so we took the bikes all the way through town, all the while singing very loudly...we then got to the university, walked around for 10 minutes, bought a donut, walked a bit more, then we headed back to the party in rödäng. it had grown by then and it got pretty fun. we played maya's drinking game with the signs which, as usual, was a big hit. i also tried whisky for the first time...i kinda expected a stronger taste but i was drunk anyways so i guess maybe i just couldnt tell? who knows.

somewhere between 1 and 2am maya and i decided we should head out so we took kajsas bike and biked all the way to ersmark. it wasnt that bad at all, but apparently it was a crazy thing to do. apparently. so i slept at mayas and everything was cool.

this morning i woke up to maya starting the new greys episode, which was good. then we ate breakfast and watched private practice (complete cliffhanger btw) and then biked to haga to drop off the bike. i went to a picnic thing with david and co. and met some new people that were nice and then it was just chilling for a while before my bus got there.

i think my first valborg experience was awesome and i hope next year is the same, if not better. this holiday is much cooler than the random u.s. holidays haha. pictures kanske later.

// edit // pictures kanske now.
