Missing Karlstad.

I'm really missing Karlstad right now! This year has not started off too great. A little boring, no crazy parties, and I have been sick. I miss watching drunk Swedes walk around on campus during Nollning. O and how I miss the colored pants. The pink pants are the best ones! :) I just wish my home university was a little bit more about partying rather than always worrying about who is underage drinking! People are going to drink no matter how old they are, so they might as well get over it, and lower the drinking age! I miss all my crazy friends and prepartying in Trio 8! :) O Clara's room=good memories! :) Honestly that whole building. Can't forget about Darvian and Zagros. By the way I still have my mooses :P And a shout out to my research partner, Caroline! :) Wish I could go to England with you and research! BOOO! :( We can't forget about Ida who was always saying "Guys stop! Grow up!" O being 21 is so fun! Then me an Anniina's obsession with our #1 vampire, Edward Cullen! But I will be back soon enough! New Year's 2010! :)

Monday

Once again I had to start my day really early! :( Got up at 6:15am! But I must say I love that my last class gets out earlier than scheduled. Could have not sat there any longer. Thank god he let us out an HOUR and HALF early. Now I'm sitting in my wonderful apt. enjoying being in my own room and resting! Have to get better before the first football game, which is Thursday! GO BSU, CHIRP, CHIRP, CHIRP!

Being sick, sucks! :(

So i have had a cough for a week now. It really sucks. I don't feel sick, its just I cant stop coughing. I went to the doctor, and they checked me out. They also checked me for swine flu, because they thought that was what I had. I sortof knew it would come out negative, but whatever! I also had to wear a mask the whole time I was in the doctors office and while I was being examined by the doctor. Little overrated I must say. Felt a little weird and had plenty of stares in the waiting room. Everyone thought I was diseased or something. Not a fun experience. Then she tells me that I just have a cough and to go to walmart to get medicine. I did not just sit with a mask on for 2 hours to be told to go to walmart to get medicine. They prescribed some type of cough suppressant that didn't even work well, so I still had to go to walmart to get better stuff! CRAZY! But at least I'm on my way to recovery! :)

First day of Classes

Started my day off at work at 7:45. Pretty early I must say. I had four classes total that usually would last till 6:45pm on Mondays but since it was the first day we got out early. Thank god! I was so ready for this day to end. It was fun, and it flew by, but gosh it's a lot different than my Swedish classes. I almost felt like a freshman again, because I sortof forgot where some of the buildings were and just how many people went to this university. Also the distance between buildings as well! Overall it was a great first day, but my Mondays will be CRAZY!!!

Frat Houses

Went out tonight to Frat row, and gosh were the freshman girls out tonight! Move in started yesterday and so the parties begin. I'm way to old to be going to frats I found out tonight. Little embarrassing when a guy asks what year you are and you say your a senior. They sort of just look at you like "WTF are you here?" haha! Never will go back! Did make it over though to Sig Ep and gosh they have a brand new house this year that cost Ball State 3 million dollars. I'm glad thats where my tuition money is going! :( But I must say, it is a pretty tight ass house. Then we all had to be on lock down because the cops came into the house to do the nightly walk around. BORING!
Never will I go back!

True Blood

If you have not seen this TV show, you MUST!!! If you love vampires, it might be the best show on tv yet! WOW! I have been trying to catch up with the current episode by having True Blood marathons! :) The show gets better everytime! I can't get enough of it. I stay up late just to finish an episode. It's sad! I think I'm addicted! :) But who cares!

Windermere

I finally moved into my new apartment! WOW! I love it. Cannot way for the school year to begin. Took forever to move in, but my mom and I finally finished! Going to lay out today by the pool. Probably all day long! :) I get to finally talk with my friends on skype today. It's been way too long.

Wedding in NYC

I have been in the Big Apple for about 5 days now, and loving it! This past Saturday my cousin got married to a guy from St. Louis. The wedding was held in my aunt's event space in downtown Chelsea. The DJ played songs that young people would know, which really got the party started. First time I have actually "partied" with my parents. Must say it was quite fun. Rachel had an amazing dress and I loved the colors of the wedding. Which were purple, light blue, and a light purple. All flowed really well together. I do remember at one point we were reminded by the parents that this is not a club! :) Oops! It was just too much fun. The next morning we all had to get up for brunch, which was really good, and perfect food for such a crazy night! :) Now the newly weds are in Paris, France for 12 days for their honeymoon! Great way to end it!

Excited

School starts in about three weeks (Aug. 24th). Cannot believe it. I feel like a full time student, since I just got out of summer school. Sitting at my grandma's currently, in southern Kentucky. Her and I will head for the Lexington airport tomorrow to fly to NYC for my cousin's wedding this Saturday. I will be staying for a week. I really can't wait because I will be seeing family, that I haven't seen in a good 3 years or so. So pumped! :)
