the little house on yurong st has this past week been turned into the sickhouse on yurong. it's kind of sad and lame. i got really sick on sunday night and after work on (my manager had me working aaaall day - despite several signs of me not being very well) i was even worse. tuesday morning i went to the doctor and she said she thought i had glandular fever (körtelfeber) - not a very happy result when in the middle of the semester and very far away from my mother to take care of me and my father to buy me 4-gott. "at least" she said - "you have severe tonsillitis" (halsfluss) - so she prescribed me the craziest penicillin cure - 4 x 500mg pills for 20 days.
then they had me taking bloodtests, the mean nurse just showed the needle into my arm and now its all bruised and ugly. i went back on thursday - no glandular :) apparently this little one's already had it so my body's already developed anti bodies and kicked its ass. still tonsillitis though. that does feel like kind of a victory anyhow. so here i am feeling so much better popping my penicillin pills and waiting to go fully recover, which i now think i have. maybe tomorrow. i've been very good - didn't go to caro's amazing birthday party last night, shich i really really really wanted to - instead i watched movies and ate lollies for dinner - because that's absolutely allowed when your little and sick - and tonight i'm not going to cara's housewarming either because i want to fully recover. i missed out on china heights on friday too, and go font ur self and monster children on thursday. well, for the coming 15 days i'll be health itself.
marcus got a bit sick to the other day, fever and a cold, but it went away after a day or so. josefin had tuna sallad at a friends birthday dinner and got food poisoned. louise - little healthy one - is the only one who hasn't been sick at all. she looked kind of freaked out when i told her both other two are a bit sick...well now we're all feeling better. even went out for breakfast at Safe House today. so good. josefin's in carlingford picking up her bike today very exciting - the first addition to the bike family. our's are on their way, we're not really focusing on that right now.
billy blue has granted me extension for all the assessments we've got due this week. i hate being behind but i haven't really been able to do anything about it. and i'm not working until next sunday - which is weird. and i won't get paid which is bad. but there's not much to do i guess...
spring is kind of on its way too - around the 20's mostly now, thursday was ridiculous over 25 (it's still winter here swedes :)
now i need to finish my style sheet for RAW.

sunshine day
ook, here it comes, the long waited for blog post. HOW exciting!
so the reason for our lack of posting is Billy Blue. He is just so selfish he just wants all the attention. BUt good news everybody after the week to come (w 6) we will have a little bit more time for stuff not related to that little silly boy.
ok so today i've been in rouse hill... where is that you might wonder.. well, I have no idea, or it might be mayeb south west of sydney kind of.. about an hour and a half with bus!! yes an hour and a HAlf. what did i do that far away?? well, my group and i was shooting our little film. just looked at the footage.. it might turn out fantastic OR the total opposite. time just have to tell, but we've done the first shoot now and so we can get some feedback and get back there again. today has been Lovely, 25 C and sunshine all day! a lovely lovely lovely day to spend in a shed on the country side with a dog and a kitten.
back to study.

hello
Sydney seems to be craving lots of water recently. It's been pouring down, and its cold and wet everywhere. Therefore I thought it'd be a good idea to cut a fringe. It will keep my forehead nice and warm but it will look crazy when its all curly whurly from all the rain that will land onto it. I look like I'm 5. But I'm fine with that, I want to be a kid forever. Just recently I asked my dad if we could go to Orlando, Florida and to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. He asked if I wasn't a bit too old for that. i said "Nej". Only the future can tell.
Apart from me cutting my fringe, Louise also cut her hair today. We also bought matching shoes the other day so we're slowly merging into one. we had our housewarming last saturday - it was amazing. cowboys and indians was the theme. Lou was a cowboy "Cherry Lou", Jos an indian "tumblesweede" and I was an indian too "Dancing with thunder" - Marcus was also an indian, but I don't know what his name was - he did have the most shiny black hair in his wig though so "Moonshine" maybe?
We've also gone back to school. Hectic already. We're making films, our major projects and all sorts of things - feels more like I'm doing Multimedia design than communication but hey, I need to know those things to. And so far so good.
These were all photos that lived from saturday. x

silly, very silly.
hello hello. I'm sitting drinking my sneaky imported cinnamon tea, in the dark, in josefins room, close to the heater, I'm kind of deep in that way. sometimes looking out the window to observe the lovely street named after yurong. pretty cold day in sydney but yet so warm. the air is filled with love from the little birds that know that the longed for spring will be here in just a minute, or at least by saturday... saturday would be nice.
ok
first week of uni is OOON! had three classes so far.. not sure what to think yet.. a lot of multimedia which doesn't really appeal to me as known from the previous semester BUT it's all gonna be in after effects which (after two basic classes) seems pretty straight forward. we also got a lot of stuff regarding our lovely and not to mention amazing major project... well the class we had today seems really good, we're gonna make a title film for a 2 min film (which we will make in an other class) and some posters and packaging around that. and heaps more!= good bye life.
Anyway,
since it is the first week of uni we're allowed to be a little bit lazy and enjoy having a little bit of a controlled/not freaking out mind, we're gonna go to a little birthday dinner tonight and josefin and I (since nic is working) will give Monster Children a little visit before for some free beer and other creative stuff.
oh great it's raining again! rain on little rain so that you don't have any left for satuday. Saturday is cowboys and indian party at the palace and we don't want no rain..

time has come
for some changes. they won't be happening today though. patience is essential here. the name needs to be changed. the layout of the blog as well. writers needs to be added and so on. one step is taken in the right direction though - internet. quite a significant step i'd say. so you can expect updates here much more frequently from now on.
holidays are over on tuesday. ridiculous how fast these holidays has gone by. so much has happened and yet it feels like i haven't done a thing. i've been working quite a lot - between 15-30 hours per week actually so not much for holidays for me. my mom is a bit upset about it. we've had beautiful cassie from SF visiting for a week and we had so much fun. she's coming back to work for AA (American Apparell) in january at the latest and might also become a Billy Bluer then as well. amazing.
yesterday lovely lou came back home. finally. i'm waiting for her and jos to wake up so we can go for breakfast to the shop. muesli here i come. yum. i made a delicious strawberry jam the other day btw. oh so yum - nom nom nom. tonight's the snake party at thomson st and tomorrow warehouse party at the old chocolate factory. then next saturday we're having our housewarming finally - cowboys and indians is the chosen theme. ill be an indian - feathers and pearls in my hair. very excited.
now i can here rumbles from the other rooms. yes breakfast!

thief
once again ive stolen josefins internet. i think she wont mind. i did go all the way to north sydney today to print her portfolio for her. the graduate exhibition is on wednesday and the poor thing wouldve never had time to print it otherwise. but thats what we do in this family, we take care of each other (thanks to oliver i now know for sure that each other is spelled like that - not like this eachother).
while experiencing the utter buredom of north sydney i went and signed up for a medicare card, bought an amazon energy, hung out with the coffee people at the cafe at billy blue and then i rushed home so i would be home in time for the plumber to arrive at 12. that was now an hour and a half ago. he still have til 3 to show up but anyway. why are they always late?
been working a lot. all days of the weekend. tomorrow. went to the fba boys studio launch on wednesday, then to watch rodrigo play at oxford art factory on thursday night. it was really good - talented boy. then josefin and i had fredagsmys on friday watching amazing buffalo 66 and eating swedish lollies that dear louise sent us. then come saturday anna oliver toby josefin and i went to a mad house party on crown st. amazing. i ruined my top though, my white silk top that i found for 20 dollars on the very same street (not on the street, in a store on crown) and loved wholeheartedly. ive only worn it twice and now its totally ruined. such a shame.
i wonder when our internets going to be installed. i hope its soon. i miss it.

from yurong with love
another two weeks is what i have to wait until i have proper internet back. until then im depending on my little iphone, it does do its job splendidly but how amazing it is to actually have a 15 inch screen staring back at you (im occupying Jo's laptop at the moment while she's getting ready)
the past couple of days has been relaxing and hectic all at once. no billy blue, but work and breakfasts at the commons, hours at the grocery stores, chess at pocket, pool at darlo bar and other random lovelinessess. i'm aware thats not a word. we've also managed to squeeze in two visits at the movies, oliver and i watched new york i love you and then Jo and i saw rocket science. i recommend both, rocket science was so good, so funny.
these days of no billy blue are quite fantastic, there's nothing in the back of my head threatening me not to enjoy myself. i'm free. the only thing thats missing is my little louise. people ask me how i cope without my other half and i just smile and say i do very well on my own. which obviously is a lie. i miss her terribly. i even sent her a little package in the post today, should arrive at the time of her arrival back in sthlm since shes celebrating midsummer in southern sweden. i also sent my dad a little something, a little something that only he likes and no other person understand why he likes them. but he does.
now Jo and myself (soon) are getting ready, we're going out for a bi. it's been nice and warm today - no sun though but still. warm winds.

swedish life day 4
still haven't got used to the time difference, which btw sucks, today i got up at 5.30.. this is however an improvment from my other mornings here in sweden land.
not sure what i'm doing today.. or yes i have to go and get contact lenses which should be a bit of an adventure, or at least some excitment since it includes me getting out of the house and Älta. first iäm going out with my dear dog though.. the sun is actually shining today so it should be good.. i think they said thet it was gonna get up to 22 C today! let's take out our swimming suits! woooooppaaa!
well it's been pretty good so far .. been seeing two of my best freinds celina and anna.. haven't seen them in ages so it was fun to se their pretty little faces again. we went around in the city, i bought some stuff at HM (including a flamingo t-shirt!!).. we got some sun and coffee. so all good. I wont be seeing them again until after midsummer though since we're all going away but we got our crayfish party ahead of us and many more little get-togethers so it should be sweeeeet.
i'm not really in a blogging mood so this post is a bit unnecessary but at least you get to enjoy my little silly thoughts, I do know that you silly australians/swedeish people in Sydney miss me lots and lots so i''m gonna make this post long and full of louise so you don't have to cry yourself to sleep every night.. 15 JULY, keep that in mind.
My favorite thing in my room is my green chair. it's quite an amazing chair. it's green. it's beautiful. and you can sit on it. i'll show you a picture of it sometime in the future. I*m planning to take it out in our little garden and take some photos of it, make it feel special and cared for.
another little creature I like in my swedish room is this little guy!

i'm gonna leave you with that, but i will see and talk to you soon, hopefully.

meatballs for dinner
and we thought we were gonna have our last sleep in neutral bay yesterday but nope, we won't be moving out until tomorrow early - up with the birds, matt's coming over at 7am to help us drive the truck to darlinghurst. today we got up early, went to edgecliff to meet our overly serious real estate agent and sign papers, receive keys and get completely freaked out over how ridiculously careful we need to be with our new house. well we're pretty neat and tidy...usually...so we'll do our best.
then jo went to billy blue for yet another date with him, lou and myself skipped over to forbes and burton for breakfast and oliver, then i went to work after an hour, worked til 5 and then lou oliver and matt came to pick me up with the moving truck they'd rented and off we went to ikea. had meatballs for dinner, bought clothesracks, hangers and i bought a mirror for my new room. i also bought knäckebröd and we all shared some singoalla and marabou chocolate. yum. i tend to eat nonstop these days, soon ill turn into a meatball..mehehe well i decided to start running over the holidays. and a girl at work has a 4,5 months old puppy, maxie, and ill get to babysit him :) they live on castlereagh street so its just near us, just the other side of hyde park so its really really close for me to get to them. yay
then we went back to the city, drop little oliver off and lou matt and myself packed the truck full with our stuff from the apartment. now i just had a hot shower, will go to sleep and up early with the birds once again tomorrow since we decided to start moving at 7am...
now its time to sleep. x
