I just had some more pictures from spring break I wanted to share with you. I think they're so cozy. The first picture is the view from our window in our camp. Beautiful right? I miss it already. I want to not stress over school at all times, getting my driver's license or working out. I want to do it on my own terms and when I feel like I have the time and will to do it. Unfortunately that is not possible. However I have started watching Gossip Girl from the beginning again, hence the name of this post. Even if it not helpful whatsoever for my studies or anything I love watching it, in four days I watched two full seasons of it. That is approximately 20 straight hours of my life I spent watching a tv-show. Sweet.

This is what I've been doing today! I went on a little ice-skating-picnic, sort of. Nah, the best word for it is the swedish one for a change. I went for an UTFLYKT! Haha. And there we were ice skating and had a picnic. We even made a little bonfire and made hot dogs and scones and stuff! The weather was beyond lovely..but hey, Captain Obvious, I don't think I need to be redundant and say that. I mean, who did not notice?!

When I know it is going to be a long day I usually try to make up for it in the morning. To be a step ahead of myself breaking down. Today for example, I have a hard running workout to do, I am going to a meeting all the way across town, I have school and I have a test. So this morning I got up an hour earlier than I had to. I know it sound completely insane but try it sometime. Now I had the time to get ready without rushing and then eat a long and nice breakfast. That is what I call luxury. And on top of it all I had a really tasty breakfast as well. Eggs, oatmeal with cinnamon and raisins, grapefruit and coffee. Yu-uh-uhm.

You should all try it sometime. Getting up earlier to take time for that extra long, silent and relaxing breakfast. Seriously. It is worth it.

To begin with I would just like to say how deeply sorry I am for my ridiculously long and obnoxiously silent absence. So much has been going on in my life recently I just haven't had the time to cram the blog in there as well. Pardon me. Please.

This picture is from this saturday where I squeezed in some quality time with these two adorable ladies for a late brunch, in between two work shifts. It was great. If you want to be naive you could say that it almost feels like spring is on its way. I can't wait for it to come for real though. These dark days and this cold makes me depressed. But the sun was out that saturday so I guess there is hope. Kind of.

I got a question why I quit dancing, so I thought I'd answer that. When I went to America I wanted to keep up my dancing, and I did. For a little while. I started taking dance classes at a place called the Thomas School of Dance. It was ridiculously expensive but all worth it. I had to audition to get into the classes I wanted, which was kind of scary. But I got into the advanced ballet class, a performance dance class and a modern dance class. I was even put as an understudy in their annual ballet show, with pointe shoes and all. I had classes several times a week and it was so much fun and I learned so much.

But my organization got all crazy and made me choose between dancing and running when I moved to my new host family. And I had to choose whatever my host sister was doing (pretty weird request if you ask me, it left me with no choice really), which was running, so that's how I got all into running.

One might wonder why I didn't picked up dancing when I got back but I didn't for a lot of different reasons. Firstly, my old dance school here in Sweden went bankrupt. Secondly, all of my friends that I used to dance were all gone and that meant it wouldn't be any people in my age. And I have absolutely now time left for dancing now when I have school, work and all this working out for my super mega senior project I have to do too. I am seriously
deprived from not dancing, because I love it so much! I miss it a lot. Oh well, maybe I'll pick it up some day again, or I'll just have to be satisified with the dance offs my sister and I have from time to time in our kitchen...

c'est moi
Tänkte presentera mig lite i taget. Först och främst så älskar jag att dansa. Alla sorters dans. Önskar också sådär löjligt i hemlighet att jag var en ballerina.
