Rather stressful day!
Running errands all over the place...!
This day feels like it's been going on forever!
Well, I just got back from down town...
(I wish it was down town Nakumatt in Nairobi... But I have to wait a little while longer)
Today I got the money from the insurance company... which I was supposed to get like a month ago... But better late than never I guess. It was a good thing though, since I just had 85 SeK left to live on until Friday!
After I had been at work, again, dropping off some papers... I went to Triangeln to look for a new lap top case for my new computer.. I hoped Stadium had their cheap ones left... but no.
ALTHOUGH, I did find an awesome Fred Perry jacket! It used to be 799:- but I got it for 249:- AND they had it in my size!
Even the guy at the register said, "Uh, sorry but I think this is the wrong price... it's too cheap". but I told him I checked the other ones too and they all had the same price tag... and I was right, which I'm really happy about.
Sorry, I'm too comfortable at the moment, to get up, try it on and take a picture, so this will have to do for now! :)
I also got wet-ones for my glasses!
They're really good! I tried a sample a while back and thought they were awesome, and I never got around to go there and buy them...
And when I saw them, and I saw the price tag, I was like "aaah what the heck, they're good!"... It said 49:- for a pack of 30 whipes.
What I didn't see was the on sale sign...! They sold each pack for 19:-(!!!) So I got 4 packs :) Should last me a long long time!
Thumbs up for SmartEyes! :)Oh yeah, and since I was around Triangeln, I went to Thamnack thai and had dinner. Same old, same old...! Chicken in coconut sauce with red curry and rice... SOOOOO yumm! :)
I remembered to take a pic, when I was basically done.. but again, better late than never!
And oh yes, it was yuuuuummmm....!!
The TV show Ullared.... :/
I'm watching "Ullared"... Sure, I LOVE GeKås... but this TV show is just insane. Talk about finding the weirdest people in Sweden... I don't know how they manage to make them all sound so NOT bright.
...I feel sorry for them.
But yes, it does make me want to go back and SHOP!
...No can do. I'm gonna save up like crazy... Only 1½ months until I leave for Kenya!!
Tomorrow I'm gonna send my passport to the embassy to get my VISA. I called last week and they said the lines might be VERY long once I get there... Which I doubt, since I arrive at 2am something.. But I'm not gonna take any chances... and they said it's just 200Sek for the visa, so... it's all good :)
I just spent the last hour playing SIMS 3 :) Call ne a dork, but I love it :)
I also ordered my new laptop today! I need a new computer for school, and I think this one will be perfect! Check it out HERE! I've saved money for a while now, JUST for this :)
Well, I'm not gonna bore you anymore now... And this will probably be the last post today, so GOOD NIGHT everyone! Dream of little angels!
Computer free weekend! Pretty much anyway!
Sorry, I really needed a computer free weekend. It was really nice!
The weather sucks today, and it's Monday. Not the nicest combination.
I set the alarm to 9am this morning, but woke up at 12:30pm, and I have no idea how, but I've turned off the alarm in my sleep. I can't even remember it went off!
Oh well...
I'm gonna go to the bank. Fun errand... :/
Then I'm gonna go to work and put up the poster. And after that, I have no idea. Maybe I'll go to Netonnet anf buy my phone. I don't know.
I'll check back later, and you'll know about all the adventures I've had today! "Weeee"
Great extensions huh? I'll show you later!A trip down memory lane with the Full house crew from season one! :)
Buenas noches mis amigos!
Sorry, I just wrote a note in Spanish to my friend on facebook, and I kind of got stuck with the Spanish...
I love Spanish... I want to go back to Venezuela so bad and just learn the languane completely... Like I know English!
I still study at www.livemocha.com whenever I can, but I've finished all the courses...
Anyway, I've spend the last couple of hours watching Full house, season one (still not done, though).
And first of all, despite the mullet, OMG Jesse-John Stamos is HOT!!!
Second of all, how cute is Michelle-Mary-Kate-and-Ashley-Olsen? It amazes me, their talent at that early age! And they were just adorable! And now they're both gorgeous! Too bad about MK's eating disorder...
Call me a dork, but I just love all the MK&A movies... No matter how cheesy they are, I find them sooo good because it's MK&A.
I've been a fan since I first saw Full house, and then "It takes two". I have meet some really awesome people online in different MK&A fan chat rooms! Lova ya Lisa! Love ya Tara! :)
And I can't thank Lisa enough who provided me with MK&A movies (video tapes) back in the day when Sweden was really slow on bringing em' here!
I remember when I got Winning London, and it didn't work in my VCR cause of the NTSC/PAL different system...things!
But it worked in out small TV with a built-in VCR. I watched it over and over! :)
Lisa, THANK YOU!!! :)
Anyway, I've been enjoying myself, watching Full house, first season, making fun of Uncle Jesse's mullet, the AWFUL 80's fashion and hair-dos, with TONS of hairspray...! (GOOOOOSH!!!)
And I made myself a big bowl of Swedish (fall) apples with cinnamon. Yumm! :)
Well, sorry for the lousy updates today.... But it's just been one of those days...
Hopefully I'll do better tomorrow!
I'm gonna get back to Uncle Jesse now... ;)
Later!
Nighty night my tweethearts and bloglings! :)
Two very good movies!
Last night I watched Dear John and Maria full of grace. Both AMAZING movies. I highly recommend them!
I'm just gonna chill the rest of the day, so I'm gonna go pop in a movie, and I'll update again later!
chaao
My apple pie! :)
Heeeey everyone I'm home!
I'm too tired to go out with the gang tonight... So I'll just watch a movie or something until I fall asleep!
...But first! Here are some pics from today!
To make my delicious meatballs, you need: minced pork and either "all-round spice" or "BBQ spice".
I know, simple as that! (Don't know if these spices are available outside of Sweden, but some of the spices in this mix are: salt, paprika (pepper), union, garlic, celery).
I didn't count them, but I used like 900grams of minced pork... maybe 35-ish?
We were 4 people, and there were none left!
Meatballs and stewed macaroni! Yuuuuuummm!
And for dessert... Apple pie and A LOT of custard!
This is the before shot!
Alex wanted raspberry in it too, so half is apple/raspberry and the other half (my half, haha) is apple, apple, apple!
I put some powdered sugar on the apples and squeezed a bit og lemon juice on top as well, and added some powdered cinnamon.
The dough mix consists of:
200g butter (7,055 Ounces)
1,5 dl powdered sugar (5,072oz)
2,5-3dl wheat flour (8,454-10,14oz)
1 table spoon powdered cinnamon
(We didin't have any, but I would also like 1 table spoon vanilla essence, and in that case maybe a little less powdered sugar, depending on the size of your sweet tooth!) :)
Put the oven on 225°C (437°F) and I'd say 15-20 minutes in the middle section of the oven will be close to perfect :)
Yuuuuuuuummm!! Apple pie with TONS of custard!
It was beyond delicious! :)
Sorry if the 'measurement conversion' isn't correct. I used www.konvertera.nu.
Well, this is my day in a nutshell! It's been great hanging out with Alex and her son, and his friend :)
But now, I'm almost falling asleep by the computer... I'm exhausted!
If I don't update more tonight - Good night bloglings and have a great Friday night! Be safe :)
Love,
Mmm... Apple pie!
Hair wrap! :)
How are you today ?
I got up at 8am... and I slept through the night. Didn't wake up once. O-M-G! It was so nice! Feels like it's been forever since I actually slept through the night.
Last night I washed my hair and but in hair treatment (conditioner) ((hårinpackning)), and wrapped a towel around my head and went to sleep.
Hence, I started the day by washing my hair, and it's softer than ever! I should do it more often!
I also put together the poster I'm gonna put up at work. But I realized I don't have any glue, so I have to wait until next week to put it up! Oh well...!
Many people have complimented my hair since I was at Cili's the other day!
Apparently flat hair rocks! ;)
Okay, I have to get going! I'm gonna get some custard before I go to Alex's, and I might even have the time to hand out some flyers! :)
Have a great day everyone!
I'll be back later tonight!
ALL my love,
Good night sweetheart, weeeell it's time to go...
I just watched the last episode of What I like about you. Oh how I love happy endings ♥
I'll blog more tomorrow! Going to Alex's place and I might even have time to hand out flyers...
Vamos a ver!
Good night everyone! Sueñes con los angelitos!
MUAK!
6:09pm...
Hi! Nothing much has happened since I last wrote here, but soon I'll post a new...post in the 2010 Kenya category!
Who knows? I might even give you another Life of Roberta!
Stay tuned!
3:33pm...
Yap! That's the time right now, and I recently woke up from sleeping for 2 hours... good job, Madeleine, good job.
Although, I'm not gonna work tomorrow after all, so it's not as bad as if I would have to get up at 3:30 tomorrow, again!
After work today I went to Espresso House with L and Em, and we had a delicious breakfast! It was really nice actually. Felt like forever since we did that!
Oh, I want to ask you; Do you say ESpresso House or EXpresso house.
I've noticed a lot of people say EXpresso... But... Where's the x in espresso? :P~
Damn, I just have 185 SeK left to live on until I get my´next paycheck. Sure, it's only one more week, but it's haaaard!
Tomorrow, I'm gonna go to Alex during the day and I'm gonna make meatballs, and stewed macaroni and apple pie for dessert (with an insane amount of custard)! Yumm, huh? :)
Her son LOVES my meatballs, and he's been asking for 'em, so :)
and 
= Yuuuuummm!
Well!
This is it for right now, I'll check in again later!
Loooove,
6:45am...
I'm getting more and more tired as we speak....As I write!

Just wanted to pop in and say hi!
And I'll write more throughtout the day!

And now I'm at work. Waiting to take on my assignment. "wee"..
Good thing is that I get off at 10am! Me likey that-ey :)
Don't really know what I'll do after work. Can't really go home and sleep...

Anyways!

So I'm wishing you all a very good evening!

Back home! Applying for SAT's and College!
Now I'm FINALLY at home! I has been such a long day.
But I did get to see Alex again, and I have missed her like nobody else! It was so great to see her again!
AND! I got to see Debbie, TWICE...AND Linda! TWICE!
It was just a good day, simple as that!
At this very moment I'm applying for schools for the spring semester! I can't wait. It's gonna be really good to get out of Malmö!
AND! You know what I did yesterday? I ACTUALLY applied for the SAT's...! October 23rd!

Växjö, Kalmar, Halmstad, Gothenburg, Jönköping, Lund AND an additional course "English for international health care".
I'm so excited! I sure hope I get accepted!!
Gonna go get me some afternoon snack!
Later bloglings!
At work... almost done.
Now I'm just waiting for Alex to get off work too...
Hopefully she'll be here soon, really don't want to be here anymore.
Sitting next to a former friend. Sucks that we're not anymore, but oh well. I deserve better people in my life.
She's definitely not one of them.
Bitter much?
Naaah, just tired of jerks.
Adiós!
Morning glorious at work...
Well, I have been up since 3:30am, so it feels like afternoon in my head!
Right now I'm at work, I get off at 11am, which is nice. Then I just have to stay awake until at least 7pm... I start early tomorrow too, so I'm going to bed pretty early.
I'll go for a fika after work with my dear Alex. Haven't seen her in ages! It's gonna be so great to see her again!
So, this is it for now!
Love,
Another cup o' cocoa!
Find at a thrift store! And a new favorite BBQ sauce! :)
Yummmmm!
Mmmhm! That's right!
