I went out running this morning...the first time in several months. And it felt...my legs oh my god I thought I was going to die. I don't have any condition what so ever. But it's a start so it can't get any worse=)

2 days left from our holidays.I will spend it in front of the telly watching football ALL day long. Hopefully Man U will kick Blackburns a**=).
GO REDS


Hasta La Vista Baby!!

Oh my god I reallllly want this phone:P
People if you have some money over just ask for my bank account details;)
I hope I'm not too late with my wish list to Santa Claus.....

Today we played againts Solvik.. new team nowbody knew anything about.
I must say I thought they weren't so good but damn I was wrong. They had a few really good players who kept the game alive.
We started out pretty shaky..threw away many balls but luckily enough they didn't start so well either. So both teams struggled to get up the tempo and there was much running back and forth. But we managed to get 4-6 points lead. Great work under the basket and Lee made some important shots in first period. Then second period we started getting into the game and played quite good. We also played good defence..didn't let them take easy shots and great job on rebounds. I must say that i made a hell of the shot in the end of 1st half. From the freaking free throw line on other side of the court...with one hand..straight through the net..Talk about being lucky=) Unfrotuantely it didn't count coz referee had already blown the whistle and time was out...That was a shot you only make once in your lifetime=)
We had 6 point lead before the 2nd half. We increased our lead to 10 points and it felt quite safe....untill it was 4 minutes left to play. We got stressed when they set up full-cort press and we made 4 or 5 turnovers in a matter of seconds and let them back in game. After time out we got us back together and increased a lead to 6 points when it was 1 minute left. We managed to keep our heads cold and felt great relief when the time was out.
I wasn't happy with my game...threw away too many balls and easy mistakes. Missed all my shots and some stupid fouls but I'll learn from my mistakes. I didn't warm up enough and felt like my legs were stuck to the floor. So the whole game was a struggle for me...didn't play like I used to...but only thing that counts is that we WON...6 out of 6 baby!!!!!
Now I'm gonna take off to bed and maybe ask Erika to massage my calves 2morrow:P

Weeks are passing by so quickly...
I have had a "special week" where I wanted to learn more about spinal cord injuries and how it works for disabled persons to have active life. It was reallt intresting and Im glad I picked it. I'm quite good dealing with wheel chair...I have to admit it was quite hard in the beginning...

First day was quite demanding...because elevator didin't work me and Sara had to take the other way...outside around the house. It was raining so we had big problems to get around and it was up the will all the way.
Some other activities we tryed...We played wheel chair basketball, wheel chair rugby and watched a movie called "Murderball". Movie was one of the best sports movies I've ever seen. The eye-opening documentary Murderball takes an intriguing idea of introducing people to the sport of quad rugby, only to find even more drama and action taking place off the court.The players are quick to dispel a somewhat popular misconception of quadriplegics as people with no use of their limbs. They all have sustained neck and/or spinal cord fractures, but with varying degrees of limb disabilities, with those serving as ratings for the purpose of the sport. For example, someone who has little impairment in their limbs would rate a 3.0, while a 0.5 would be given to a player with little or next to no use of their limbs. Those ratings are then applied during the game, with no team allowed to have the players exceed 8.0 on the court at one time.
Away from the competition, the film largely focuses on the U.S. quad rugby team, as they compete in a pair of world championships (yes, this sport has participants from many countries) and the 2004 Paralympics in Athens, Greece. It also looks at the life of one of the team's former players, Joe Soares, who, bitter at being cut from the U.S. squad, decides to coach the Canadian national team. Soares, a fiercely competitive man, is seen by the U.S. team as a traitor, but is clearly a driving force in making the Canadian team a serious threat to the Americans longtime dominance in the sport. The fact that U.S. team leader Mark Zupan and Soares clearly dislike each other is played up to good dramatic and comic effect by the film.
Enough about the movie...I got pissed off once and a while. Few guys acted like they were in 5th grade.I mean talk about lack of respect..something my mom taught me when I was 6:D well well...I guess everybody needs time to grow up and we all now it takes longer time for boys=)

This week we have had vacation...Our teachers had left us some homework to do so I was quite busy with my studies for a few days.
3 more days and then back in school. It's not so long time till Xmas so I'm actually looking forward to it:P

Yesterday I met my ex classmates and it was great to meet them again.We met at O'Learys and was gonna watch footie...not the best game I've seen but I guess you can't expect more when two swedish teames face each other. After that they showed Curling Cup between Arsenal and Liverpool. We missed the beginning coz the waitress was a bit stressed out. We left the place after first halftime and I got home when they had 20 minutes left to play. Great game by Gunners who finally managed to win. Senderos looser no 1 was lucky that the ref didn't blew for penalty. I don't get how he still gets to play. According to me he is totally useless...
Tomorrow I'll just take it easy..don't have any plans at the moment=)
Alright that's all for me!!!
Ciao

Okay now I haven't updated my blog for a while. Have actually forgot about that. I haven't written anything since a night out :S and it took place in the beginning of September.
I've noticed that it's October now=)
Nothing much has happened regard to school...it was quite mixed up in the beginning but I guess that's common for anyone who starts new course. I am really happy with my teachers..it feels good=)
Beside school, I've started playing basketball again. Nice to have motivation and feel the joy of it. We had a game last weekend and it went well. After a poor first half we took us together and managed to get 10 point lead which we held till the end of the game.
For a few weeks ago we had a Polish evening at our place and it was really fun. We visited this polish food store in St.Eriksplan where they had quite cheap meat and sausages. I must say it tasted really good =)
Later in the evening we went out to dance but it ended shortly after our arrival when one guy begun to argue with me. I guess I had ignored him and he felt offended.

Today I've met my ex team-mate from Sundsvall (she's actually from Estonia) whom I haven't seen for a year. It was great to meet her again, though I had big DIFFICULTIES expressing myself in estonian. She was quite confused that I've forgot my native language. Crazy or what???
I've decided to go to Kramfors next weeken and make a short visit in Sundsvall. We had only 1h30 minutes so it wasn't enoguh for us to catch up.

Yesterday was quite depressing..I was hoping that Swedish national team would beat Denmark and fix the ticket to WC but hell no. They had a great chance to win but luck was not on our side:( Maybe next time.



Tomorrow new week starts and we have some events coming up. On Tuesday we have Lillsved Day where we have some activities together and well known volleyball game. Last year we managed to beat them but it was tough. So hopefully we can win again.

I promise it won't take another month to write new posts=)
Okidoki my friends,that's all for now!!!!

Erika was going to meet couple of friends on Friday to get some drinks after work so I joined her. At first we headed to Fenix ( Södermalm) to sit down and crab something to eat. It was nice to meet Kajsa and Carlos (both born and raised in K-fors).

This is Carlos (Erikas childhood friend)

After a while Kajsa went home and me, Erika and Carlos went to the next place. This sloppy pub called Söder Källaren was our next destination. I had never been there b4 but according to Carlos beer was cheap and they usually play good music there so why not.




carlos got really drunk and owner refused to sell beer to him. He spilled beer all over the table so they thought he was so waisted. Then Erika tryed to buy beer but i guess it was obvious that she wanted to buy it for him. Erika had a deep discussion with the owner afterwards=)
We left the place and sat down in McDonalds....I guess it's no wonder that most of the people wants to eat fat food after partying. I mentioned to Erika that one of the guys who worked therewas cute so the minute later she comes back with his number written down on the napkin=) I was suppose to call him after work 4 am :D
Me and Erika went home after this great meal and left Carlos on his own....
I don't remeber when we got back home I think it was around 2am. Both me and Erika fell asleep straight away... I managed to get my ass into bedroom she didn't:DDD

On Saturday a friend of mine came to visit us from Kramfors. We were suppose to go out but didn't find strength to do that.
Instead of it we decided to stay at home and enjoy Sweden vs Hungary fb game....I was on my way to throw Tv out of our windiw when Hungary scored 15 minutes b4 the end. But by some kind of miracle Zlatan hit the goal in last minute...last second

Too bad that Estonia lost againts Turkey it would have been a pleasure to shut few guys up.But next time...maybe:D

Today I've been in town...followed Micke who wanted to buy something. I ended up buying a blender and few small things.
Ofcourse I've already made smoothie of ice cream, berrys and milk ...mums :-)


Ok now I have to check when I have to be in school tomorrow,pack my bag and go to sleep:)
Good Night!!!

I was on a kayak hike from Monday till Thursday with my class in Stockholms Archipelago.I probably packed a whole Sunday for our hike.
On Monday when we got there we practised how to paddle kayak and went through some safety instructions.

I was quite nervous at first when i sat down because kayak was really unstable but I got used to it after a while.
It was quite funny when me, Sara

and Lina were setting up our tent and discovered that tent pegs were wrong (too long). Fortuantelt, we managed to set it up somehow.
On Tuesday morning we had to get our kayaks to pack and check that everything was OK with it including the kayak rudder. Ofcourse we discovered that it wasn't working properly when we got on the water. I wasn't so worried about it coz it seemed that it wouldn't be any problem to steer the kayak with a paddle. Yeah right=) . While crossing the bay I thought I was going to die....really high waves and a kayak that was difficult to control. This time I had luck on my side=)

We continued our hike on Wednesday morning....and it was raining like hell. Not so great to get up and realise that you have to sit in a f*****g kayak for several hours while it's raining. But as always after a rain comes sunshine.

Me and Sara had a looong discussion when we sat on a rock and had this beautiful view




It was a great evening...


On Thursday morning we heard good news from Håkan (our teacher)...First, we had planned to come home on Friday but since there had been bad wether we decided to paddle home same evening. Some people had competitions this weekend so it was easyer for them to be prepared and take it easy. And it got really bad..raining like hell all evening so it wouldn't have been fun to sit in a tent.
It took us few hours till we got back...we had to clean kayaks and put them back where they belonged. Finally I got home around 10 o'clock...really tired and dirty=) I stripped in a hallway and run inte bathroom...it was so nice to take a shower=). I fell asleep as soon as I put my head on a pillow=) Zzzz

Great week! Great class! Great memories!

I have to admit I've been bit lazy lately :D

On Tuesday we had a walk through Lidingö. I was in group E and had to go from Sticklinge to Bosön..man I hate to walk but didn't have much choice=) It took us 2 hours to get there and it wasn't over yet. Then after lunch we had team building nearby school which lasted till 4 pm. I must say that I was reallly tired when I got home. Just perfect to lie in front of TV and take it easy. But hell no..TV had broken down so no picture only sound....:S I was really pissed off :)

On Wednesday we hade lectures by A.Gärderud and J.Plate...very intresting,specially Plate. After lunch we started preparing for kayak hike which starts on Monday.

Yesterday we had a day off so I went to town to buy some things. I needed a waterproof bags,a map, rainproof overall, flashlight and so on. I also bought a pair of Nike Troupe


Today I HAVE TO WATCH Arsenal vs Man U...hopefully we can find a place in some pub. Then maybe get some drinks we'll see...=)

It's been a while since I last wrote something here.

I've been quite busy lately. After finsihing my last shift on work on Fri (14th Aug.) me and E. went back to Stockholm since she had to be at school on Mon and I had booked tickets to Estonia. It was really hard to get tickets but finally my mom managed to get one through Helsinki.

I was reallt bored on that boat coz I'm used to having TV in cabin,karaoke bar and fine restaurants :P I think I went to sleep around 9 pm :D

One week at home was not such a long time but I could meet most of my friends and family ofcourse =)On Wednesday we watched WC from Berlin and were quite happy that Gert Kanter won our only medal (unfortuantely bronze).


I will download some pictures tomorrow when I have more time:)

Today was my first day at school. I came bit late because the boat arrived to Stockholm 10am and I had to get there as soon as possible. I had to carry 3 bags so when i finally got to school I was soaking wet =(...It was nice to see all teachers and students from last year.
We gathered in our classroom after lunch to get some information what's gonna happen this year ( kayak hike, special week and so on)

Tomorrow we have to be in Ropsten 8.30 to get on a bus. Hopefully it's nice weather and my group will show up :D I dont know what's going to happen but as I remeber we have to walk back to Bosön ....yeppie

Ok have to go to bed now but I'll keep you updated 2morrow!
Good night!!

On Friday we decided to celebrate Nilles birthday with barbeque and volleyboll:) Me and Erika were at work till 9 pm and joined our dear friends later in the evening. We started out with some volleyboll till it got so dark that we couldn't see the boll (and court was lying nearby river so we had to go and get the ball in the water all the time :)) After that we sang for Nille and ate some hot dogs:) It was really cozy to sit by the fire and socialize.
Since me and E had to work the next day we headed home around 12pm.
Here are som pictures;)



Here am I =)

We had a great time and our night ended with huge SKROVMÅL:P Yummieeeee

Looking forward to have a party tomorrow:P (it's been a long time)



I found this realllly good Barry Azz Coctail Recipe ...worth to try!!
4-6 cl Bacardi Razz
cranberry juice
sprite

Fill up with equal amount cranberry juice and sprite.

I'm so looking forward to go on a holiday...but it's quite a small chance that I manage to make it:( at least at the moment

I've been watching this scary man on TV today....talk about having some kind of respect =) Hell yeah....so much fun to watch when he yells at employees in a kitchen...though I'm bit suprised how dirty it is everywhere he goes..Hopefully it's not the same here in Sweden:)




Well I think it's enough for 2day! Hope you all having a great evening!

Since I have friends all over the world it seems best for me to blog in English. Don't have time to write on three different pages so I'll start all over again.

Hopefully everybody are satisfied and can follow my intresting LIFE =)

This summer has past very quickly even though it's the beginning of August. I just have 2 weeks left to work (9 days) and it feels great.
I will probably go back to Stockholm in August 16. It feels great to start school again. I have to admit I'm a bit nervous but I guess that's normal.

Im really looking forward to play basketball again so I hope it dissolves. I haven't practised much this summer..haven't been motivated but Im sure it will be better when I get back to Stckholm.

I hope it doesn't bother you guys when I change my blog templates after a while:P
(it took me 2 hours now to fix my new page....) As long as you are happy Im happy!!
