For Reasons Unknown
Just put my first pictures and a video on facebook! And as i promised, I put up a post with pictures only. Wish I have had more pictures to put up, but those pictures were all I had for now.
Summer keeps playing tricks on us swedes... it's not cosy with rainy days anymore. Especially not when you know there will be pleny of them as fall comes. Let's hope for a cold and sunny fall. I'm already starting to dream about my scented candles in Oslo, the sound of crispy dried leaves under my shoes, frosty mornings and the life without flies and other insects.
Maybe the changings of the seasons now is making my mind play tricks on me, but I am actually starting to see the loss of my cell phone and my old numbers as something good. Okay, maybe not good, but not as entirely bad. I lost all my old numbers (which is giving me a headache and causing panic because I don't know when I'm starting work or where I'm going the first two days...), but that means starting over. I've got the numbers I need, and I lost all the others. The not so important oned. Well, except for the most important one, that will tell me where to go next monday. But I can't do anything about that, so why panic over it?
Also, I've got Wasted Time by Kings of Leon as my ringtone. There's a reason to everything.
Tomorrow is supposed to be a bit better. I have to walk my dogs in the morning and then bike to meet up with Jossan. Don't feel like wearing rubber boots and raincoat tomorrow... But then, I don't feel like sweating either. And I still haven't figured out a way to get Mother Nature to listen to my weather requests.
Got the worst craving for coffee just a few hours ago, so I had to warm up some of this morning's vanilla coffe. It tasted perfect, but I have the feeling I'll have a hard time falling asleep tonight... Well, if you crave coffe, the only thing that's going to help is coffee. I should get myself some decaf, because once next week comes, there will be no more late nights and coffee drinking at 9.00 pm!
Gotta go out with the doggies now, then get ready for bed. Have a feeling the caffeine is going to kick in any second... Well, you can't make good decisions all the time, right?
I can't wait for Putte i Parken. Last days with all of my friends, probably until christmas. Emelie is back from her down under backpacking journey! Welcome back sweetie! Can't wait to see you, after over 1½ years.

Pics!
Pictures from Hultsfredsfestivalen a few weeks ago. There's more pictures on my facebook.
Just a few pictures from the party at Ellinor's and Susanna's place, and in the car on the way to the next house party.
When Autumn Comes To Town
I really need to shape up when it comes to my blogging. It's been a fun and busy summer!
To keep it short, here's what I've been doing:
July 6-12 I went with a whole bunch of friends to Hultfredsfestivalen. It was sunny, rainy, cold and windy. Mostly cold and rainy. But we had a good time, and saw bands like Kings of Leon, The Sounds, The Killers, Solid Gold, N.A.S.A, Mando Diao, Ólafur Arnalds, Kid Cudi and Peter, Bjorn & John. Because of the weather, it was impossible to stay away from getting a cold. I tried to fight it, but there was just no way... This year, we really felt old, and we all agreed that if this wasn't our last festival, it was at least the last one in a tent.
July 15-19, only a few days after the festival it was time for another trip I've been waiting for. At 1.00 am, I got on the bus to Arlanda to finally get on the plane to Newark for an Express visit to my host family from last year, and also to New York. It couldn't have been better. I went to NY and met up with Stella, who I haven't seen in almost two years! I went to the boardwalk and to Six Flags (amusement park) with the family and I went out with Vincent and his friends. A visit way too short, but I'll be back someday, and then I'll stay longer than a few days.
I've also moved my stuf to Oslo, and in just a week, I'm moving myself as well. I'm really nervous, but in a good way. I'm really looking forward to living there for a while! As soon as the first few days of work has past, I've gotten used to the language and can find my way around a bit better, I'm sure it will be great!
Even though it's still summer, I'm really starting to get fall-vibes. You know, I feel like listening to sad songs, go for long walks, drinking tea and watch movies.
That's about what I will be doing tonight. It got pretty late before we got home from yesterday's party, and I fell asleep around 4.30 in the morning. So today I'm only gonna clean my room a bit, take a bath, maybe go for a walk, and then make some pop corn and watch a movie.
The next post will be only in pictures! From all of the fun things I've been up to this summer:)

Festival
Quick post before I have to try to get some sleep. In less than 9 hours, Me, Sofie, Jossan and Malin will be on our way to Hultsfredsfestivalen! Do I need to mention we are kinda looking forward to this coming week?!
I get anxiety attacks when I look at my backpack. It is so heavy, I need help to get it on my back. I'm trying to tell myself it's mostly food, and that the backpack will be much lighter when we leave.
However, I feel like a little kid, when I think about when we've finally found a good spot, put the tent up, freshen up a bit, got the music playing, and se the rain stop (it will not rain, it will not rain, IT WILL NOT RAIN). One word..or wait, two; hapiness, festival.
Okay, my alarm is set for 6.30 tomorrow morning, so I better get some sleep.
This exact time, on Wednesday, well be singing along to Crawl or whichever song Kings of Leon play as their first song.

Aha Shake
All of the sudden it hit me, we're so close. So close to be sitting on a big field, with a cold cider/wine, happy, tanned, listening to great music, meeting great people. And the best with the best friends in the world. GAAH I feel like a little kid the days before christmas. This is my cristmas.
I guess if the festival is christmas, the US trip will be the New Year's Eve. Can't wait to come to the house, see my boys! See what they look like now, what their rooms look like, what they are into, who they're friends with now. Gosh, I miss you so much!
Well, I gotta stop writing about those things now. Time seems to move slower the more I wait. Maybe I should finish recording my tapes and start to do some packing.
5 more dayyyyyys...
