Wieee happy!!! Can't wait!!!

I had a really scary nightmare last night. Not nightmare with scary ghosts and monsters, it was a scary yet kind of a "realistic" dream. The weird bit is that I realised that it was a only a dream in the middle of it, but I was still scared because it was so real. I was thinking, WHAT IF it's not a dream! Luckily, it didn't end bad (I think it's because I later realised it's just a dream) but God I felt so stressed and paranoid in the dream. You know the feeling of being chased and you can't relax because you need to constantly look out for danger and enemies. AND on top of that, worrying and protecting people you care about.... I'm not a superwoman with special power you know (not even in the dream lol) =___=

Jeez, I was hoping for a good sunday sleep -____-

....Anyways, on a different note :P I rarely have nightmare with ghosts and monsters etc (I had nightmares as a kid though) but even if I do have one it starts of being kind of scary but I always manage to become "friends" with the monster or ghost lol It's either because it turns out that the monster/ghost is not evil at all, just sad.... OR the ghost is actually not a ghost but a human that people are afraid of.

Oh wow this post is so WEIRD, but anyways my tips for people that often have nightmares:

1. If you want to wake up from the bad dream: In your dream, go and find a deep sea and a high place where you can jump off into the water. That ALWAYS wake me up (I discovered this when I was a kid). You know what, I told this to my friends one day and they said it sounds like INCEPTION. I haven't watched that movie yet lol but I think I should haha it sounds interesting!

2. If you want to "take control" of you dream and turn it to good dream: Weeell it depends what kind of nightmare you have. If it's a dream with ghosts and monsters, try to make friends with them? Like try to talk to them XD They might not be bad as you think! If it doesn't work and you are unable to find a sea to jump into, close your eyes (in the dream of course haha) and try to be complete blank in your mind. You might start off a new dream that is not scary or wake up.




You must think I'm crazy HAHA! But you know, it's YOUR dream after all. I actually think dreams are interesting, I even have a dream dictionary ^^;;

Omg I really shouldn't >___< but I can't help buying when they are sooo cheap and sooo good! I finish them in no time!!

I wish he was the main character in the Korean Drama Flower boy ramyun shop:



Seriously Miss S how can you not think that Lee Ki Woo is cute, good-looking (and hot LOL).

XD Cheers!

ooo bored! But I really need some work done in our marketing research project, because I DO NOT want to do it during my Christmas holiday. Anyways,

while studying, it made me think of my classmate's shocking (yes shocking) face when she saw my handwriting:

"OMG did you write this?? Is this your handwriting?? It doesn't match your appearance at all!! Honestly.... it looks like a guy's handwriting hahaha"

And you know what, I got it confirmed by a male classmate too:

"Hahaa...yeh honestly, it does look like guy's handwriting, but hey is that an insult??"

(very matching right :D)

Three projects and we haven't even started on one of them! Haaaiii! Last week was crazy and this week will be quite hectic as well... so I decided that I need some mini vacation to London this weekend! Seriously, it's so cheap... you can find a returning ticket for like 75kr!


Anyways, good night from Taiga :)

I am pretty sure that I am on the reception's blacklist because I have been there SO many time. These are the things I have complained about (so far)

* Heater (it's working now)
* Ants in bathroom (They have disappeared but I'm not sure if they have actually done anything to it or it's simply too cold for ants to be out now)
* Bed (Got a new mattress)
* Draining in bathroom (fixed)
* Draining in kitchen (not fixed, so I might go back and complain again)
* Vacuum cleaner (fixed)


Actually, 2 of the things are related to the flat in general BUT my flatmates seem to not bother that the vacuum cleaner doesn't pick up ANYTHING and that it takes 10 years for the water to go away in the sink. *Sigh* well someone needs to do the dirty work which is me.

The funfair was so fun! And it felt so weird that it was in the campus! This never happens in Sweden! Imagine yourself Grönalund coming to your uni, crazy haha!




Cambridge was really nice! Love the buildings but it was kind of cold that day... so I have ended up with a flu now -___- *cough cough* but I feel better now. Better stock up medicin since I seem to get easily sick here.... I wonder why?? Is because I don't eat as healthy as I did in Sweden or what? By the way, I've lost weight... I weight 49-50kg now but I think it's because I've been quite sick lately (gum infection and now a flu)

Don't you think that the background looks like a painting? The scenery was really nice.

Yo!
I'm now back from Coniston and it feels good to be back to my clean bed and clean bed sheets. The first thing I did when I came back was doing the laundry HAHA!

Anyways, even though the camphouse was dirty I still enjoyed the trip :)

Next trip is Cambridge! :D

My mouth hurts really bad and I have a sore throat....

Look how bloated I am! *GASP*

I bought a pineapple today hihii XD

I'm sitting in the library and trying to get some work done. I have been out on Friday and Saturday till night/day.

I'm going to give you a quick summary of these days haha can't be bothered to write a long post about it:

FRIDAY:

My friend wanted me to attend an Asian party. I didn't really want to because it was only me and her (her friends were not in party mood and other were sick and bla bla). Anyways, I decided to go in the end. It wad okay, I enjoyed the night but it wasn't a GREAT night. Plus, we met a lot of weird people haha...

I saw at least 4 girls that were crying and acting all dramatic... With the their fake eyelashes dangling from their eyelids and makeup all smeared. Heh.

We left the club at 3.30 and went to a kebab takeaway with her two friends. The time was after that 4 ish and the train didn't go until 5.53. Being poor students we were quite unwilling to pay taxi.... So we went to the karaoke place and stayed there until 06.00. We got home around 07.00.

You know, it's always so wierd when you get home to get some sleep and then see people leaving their homes to go out.

SATURDAY

Well we only got 2-3 hours of sleep because we had to wake up at 11.00 for dimsum haha. But I couldn't sleep anyways... I'm always like that a night out with some alcohol. Sooo after some really good dim sum and COFFEE we started to explore Birmingham! We had dinner at Jamie Oliver's restaurant. It was quite good, but did not really meet up my high expectations. Got home late again.

SUNDAY

I slept till 10.00 hahaha so tireeeed! Tried to study, cleaned my room!

I'm soo bored right now, I'm waiting for the train to arrive (I arrived here more than 30min early! See I'm super on time!!) so I thought I might blog while waiting.

I went to the msc welcome party, to be honest it wad kinda lame. People didn't dance and the place was kinda nasty (they didn't even have a wardrobe) but my company was nice so it was ok. And we saw our director dancing Lol!! We went back early though. Oh yeah and I this disgusting strawberry beer! Well it was free so nevermind that, I would never purchase it myself though.

Soo what am I going to do in London?? I dunno, I have no specific plans - except for buying a pillow case in IKEA. My cousin called me a diva pahahhaaaa no but seriously, the pillow case (and actually the whole bed sheet set) is soo rough and uncomfortable! And if it's possible, I would like to buy some frozen Swedish meatballs, I miss them!!

Good evening! I made this dish by myself! *proud* ad it tastes good! It's chicken, celery and leek!

There was a small guild event in our hall, students gathered together to get free curry for dinner. To be honest, I hesitated at first because Annie didn't want to go (and she was the only person I knew at that time) but then I thought (or my stomach thought) "Oh whatever, it's free food!!". So I went there and luckily, I met another friend there, her name is Kristy. She's BBC, British born Cantonese. She's only 19 and very sweet haha!

Kristy and I went to the City center/China Town on Monday for shopping and dinner. We went to the Bullring for some window shopping. Well Kristy actually bought a very nice dress at Forever21, the store is H-U-G-E btw! It was a big store with three levels! The clothes were so pretty, but I managed to hold back and didn't buy anything (pats myself on the back).

There are pidgeons outside my window and it's freaking cold here!! The buildings in England are really, really poorly built! Seriously, it's colder in Sweden but it's at least warm inside!! The isolation is poor, and the heater is rubbish (it turns off after 2h, so I think I need to buy an external one in the store).

I'm leaving today and I'll we away for a year! It feels weird and I'm finally starting to feel very very nervous. What if I don't fit in? What if everything goes wrong? What if I don't like the school? Oh god there are so many "what if"

Oh I'm going to miss my family and my two cats T__T

I will miss my friends in Sweden as well!

I'm leaving my comfort zone today...

I have finally downloaded a blog app, don't know why I haven't done that earlier! It's so much easier to blog now, I can do that whenever I want to!!

Here's a picture if Meis profile, it's so cute <3 she looks like a little fox cub

Let's hope the situation doesn't get worse and that the victims are staying strong.

I just discovered that my brother sounds very wierd when he speaks Swedish O_o

This picture was requested by miss J, so here you go:

I think my middle finger turned out best


I used the light pink one (the left one on the picture) on a layer of regular nail polish. I tried to make a simple nice pattern, but it was sooo difficult because the brush is thicker than a regular nailpolish. It's pretty cool how it cracks into a random pattern, but it's difficult to apply because it dries SUPER fast.

*UPDATE

New colour combination:

Mavala Hong Kong and Isadora Grafitti

There were some things I needed to buy to Mei so I asked Miss J to come with me to the Zoomarknad in Bromma. The place was huge with so many fun pet things! We saw some cute animals as well (they were totally chilling out) =^^=



Look at the legs haha!


So fluuuuufffffeeeeeyyy!!

Look I bought a fake BURBERRY collar to Mei! It's difficult to see though, because of her fluffy fur lol. I think it looks pretty on her, but mom has a different opinion on that (oh well it's my cat!).

I bought these colourful balls to her as well, but she TOTALLY ignored it! :'( I didn't understand why at first until I saw her grimase when I shoved it up on her face. She kind of wrinkled her nose with an expression saying "eeewwww it stiiiinks". I smelled it, and yes the balls do have the yucky plastic stench! Sooo disappointed!
