1. Have a full day in Gothenburg for good food, Liseberg and nice company (must meet Linnéa Porathe when I get there)

Fesh & Chepps
I can feel that I worked last night, my chest, legs and arms are all tender after running and lifting for 8 hours. Feels good! It's 6.30 pm this thursday evening, tomorrow I'm off (I'd really prefer to work though) and then I'm working again on Saturday. I'm just really tired for now, so until I start working I'll just watch Friends on tv, have something to eat and a shower.
And oh. How beautiful are dalmatians? I think I want one. Haha!

06.20 am
Heyyy
It's 6.20 in the morning, we just had sunrise and I came home from work about an hour ago. I worked from 8 pm till 4 am, and as usual I'm unable to fall asleep. I've had some food and right now I'm drinking chamomile tea and watching Lost. Might hit the rest of my M&M's as well, lol.
I'm working tomorrow as well, unless I change my shift for Friday instead. BUT I will try to get up earlier so that I can grab a coffee and actually achieve something during the day more than just sleeping.
Well. Sis is leaving for Wellington in 15 minutes and guess what, she JUST started packing. Can't help but loving her for that.
I'll get some serious rest now before I go more crazy catlady than I already am. Ciao.
La Famiglia Bella
I didn't pass out until 5ish this morning. Blows aye? Well, I've slept most of the day, went to Countdown and then sorted out some stuff with uni, so I'm off to city centre soon to mail some papers to uni. Otherwise, I'd like to ju relax with a good movie and a cup of coffee later on tonight. Tomorrow I'll start work at 8 pm, hopefully I'll be working until we close.
Right now I'm relaxing in the couch with a bag of M&M's after sorting out some shit with uni, and I had to be on hold for 15 minutes which is not cool at all.. Ah well, it's done now, feels good!
I'm so tired, so I'll hit my mp3 with some good music, get some fresh air and drag my ass to the Post Office. Uhuuu... ;)
BESIDES THAT
- congrats Esme, who recently moved to and started her internship in Boston. You seem to be doing good and I am more than happy for you. All the best from me
- good luck with your work Gretchen. You might be the youngest and the only female there, but I'm sure you'll work harder than most of the people there. Just some work, then you'll be ready to continue your travels (and if you end up in NZ you know who'd be happy)
- congrats to me, for living in paradise for almost seven months...
- ... and shame on me, for forgetting all birthdays, events and special happenings in Sweden (okay, some in NZ as well). Is it a legitimate excuse to say that I am too far away to think about it? Or could I blame the time difference? Or am I simply forgetful?
JUST ONE LAST THING
Please update me with what's up in Sweden. I don't want to return knowing nothing of what's happend the last twelve months. Keep me posted!

Sleepless in Chch
Well... I think I'll go grab some left overs, keep watching Big Bang Theory and hoping to fall asleep soon enough.
(Sigh)
crazy catlady
It just can't be good never to sleep by night, right? Because I haven't done that properly for two months now. How is that even possible? It drives me crazy, that's for sure.
Well. I'm sitting in my kitchen right now, because our little house is packed with people and I wish I could have brought a mattress and a tv in here so that I could waste my time here without disturbing anyone else. But that's not gonna happen aye?
So the plan for tomorrow is to get hold on AUT. Those ***** never answer my calls nor e-mails which I find really annoying.. But I will not give up, but keep trying until I succeed. I have to!
And as you might notice on the tone of my writing, I'm in a bad mood. It's all because I can't sleep. I wish Mark was here so that we could sit up all night and talk about random shit like we do every now and then. He's a great friend, always nice to have that!
Well. Back to being in a bad mood. I am, but for now I'll go to bed pretty soon to close my eyes, think of something and try to concentrate about dreaming of it. Sometimes it works, hopefully it will this time as well. So what will I think about? God dammit!
Good night!
Planning
I am currently making plans for the coming South Island trip. There will be a strict budget, but I'll have a few weeks of working and saving until then, and as long as I actually get out there to see some new placed, I don't really care about the whole budget thing. I'll prob go down in April again anyway.
And
The 19th of February, I'll be on the flight back to Auckland. Fuck yea.
Urgh
Whānau
I miss you so much that it hurts. Every day, every hour and every minute I wish you were here, just the four of us doing our own little thing. I do consider myself independent emotionally speaking, but when it comes to you... I wish you were here with me every day to council me in whatever i need council in. Friendship is something beautiful, and I am forever grateful for getting to know you. You made my days in Auckland, my first semester in uni, and guided me through life.
I just miss you so much.
Gretchen Schroer. Brittany Rucker. Esme Lisanne Den Ouden.
5.30 am
Lesson learned today: there is no such thing as private life. Even though I knew it before. I stick to live every day as if it was the last

Wooorkeliwork
Last night was fun, I went out with a good gang from work and stayed out until six in the morning. A great mix of glassys, bartenders and bouncers, good times! Today was supposed to be my second day off, but I got called in to work about two hours ago, but it's not too bad, working from 7 till 10 pm, only three hours! And it is always something on the paycheck :D
So I'll get ready for work now. I'm really tired actually, I've been working wed-mon straight, and now wed-sun (possibly more days in a row depending on next week's roster). It's exhausting, but it's FUN and that's all that matter right now. Having fun and paying the bills, nothing I mind at all!
Soooooo, I need some mental preparing for work and then I'm off ;)
Ciao babes!

Morning fellas!
Or well, it's 7 pm here and I just woke up. I've slept for 12 hours, but I'm pleased I did because I really needed it, I feel more awake right now than I've done for a few days straight now. I'm off from work tonight and tomorrow night, so in about 2,5 hours I'll be going out for dinner and then for drinks with workmates. Thank God I'm off tomorrow, haha! Then on Thursday I'm on it again. Feels good getting so many hours! ♥
Soo, I'm going out for dinner pretty soon. Before that I'll just eat one of my delicious scones, have a shower and maybe tidy up some more.
The end of the week will be crazy, as Kelsey is coming home from Aussie + two guests of her will be staying here, my sister and Erika and her boyfriend are coming as well. That equals seven people in a house consisting teo bedrooms and one (relatively large though) livingroom. This shall be interesting!
Ah well, we'll sort it out.
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
A bun in the oven. Or four.
Just took out my blueberry scones from the oven. Can only say one word about them: DELICIOUS!
I have some new ideas regarding bread: I want to try out carrot bread! And pumpkin bread as well. That'll be next weeks project.
I love baking!
Secrets
Well, I won't sleep more. Today I will clean at home, and if I have all the ingredients I'll make blueberry scones. Yesterday I made more banana and apple chips, so I have that if I feel like snacking, yay!
But I am dead, well at least as dead as possible with a beating heart and functioning brain. Not fun at all. Some good music, dancing around singing along and cleaning should do the trick ♥
Here are some good songs I'll be listening to
Good morning


Pretty tired aye!

Haha!
El Beacho
Now, I'm heading for a shower, then Countdown to buy fruit and then sleeeeeeeep before work (haven't slept more than one hour).


Pretty good tan line for two hours! Gosh I love to tan!
Allegra
Yesterday was awful! I slept all day and felt like shit. I literally got out of bed one hour before work to shower. But once I arrived at work, had a lot of coca cola (caffeine) I felt a bit better. I did meet some peculiar characters last night.
There was one guy who first asked me if I wanted his number. Straight up person as I am, I simply replied that sure, he could give it to me but I will most likely not be in touch what so ever. He decided to give it to me anyway, and told me he wanted to take me out for dinner. Swedish dinner, to be accurate, so in the end he said he'd bring me to IKEA in Sydney to have Swedish meatballs.
Another guy came up to me as I had my break and asked me if I could just run off for half an hour with him from work. I just looked at him, thinking he's pretty God damn stupid for asking such a thing, with a clear no as an answer. He asks me why, and say because I am working. He keeps talking to me andwants a better explanation to why I can't leave my duties with a dude I've never seen before in my life. So I answer: first of all, I'm working and I have responsibilities. Second of all, I simply don't want to. Then the guy gave up and left me. Thank the lord!
Then there were the usual guys who'd just come up and flirt, ask me for my number, what time I finish work and so on. After almost two months at this job, it still amaze me how the drunk people aka the customers look up to the bar staff, as if we were some kind of supernatrual kind of people.
Ah well..
It's now 9.30 in the morning, it's gorgeous weather outside (sunny and hot, has been since sunrise) and I'm off to the beach at 11. I'll just sleep there while I'm tanning, I refuse to spend another full day inside. I just Skyped Christoffer for an hour and a half, so I'll just spend the rest of the time eating my home made muesli with my home made dried bananas, watching kids television (or possibly Lost extra material for the second time).
Plans for the coming week:
Sunday: beach, work 11 pm
Monday: clean apartment, work 11 pm
Tuesday: prepare for the Swedes
Wednesday: do whatever I feel like, sis arrives in Sydney (I think)
Thursday: work 10 pm, Erika and Alex (mate from high school + boyfriend) is coming
Sweet!
Dried fruit
Work in two hours and I am absolutely exhausted. Huh!
