Off to See the World!

The time has come! We are off on our super duper trip! Tomorrow at 10.20 AM the plane leaves Stockholm to take us across the great ocean and drop us off in San Francisco... with a little stop off in Philly that is...

I am mighty proud of myself, having fit everything for a three week trip into one 50L bag... no suitcases allowed due to the part where we live in tents and paddle around with Orcas and things... Not that I really mind. Quite looking forward to that part :) I would also like to add, that this luggage includes a sleeping bag! Tried it all in the bag last night and it fit. Not that there is room for anything I may want to buy along the way, but at least for once I haven't over-packed... and I did manage to fit an extra bag for the trip home, should I need it! hehe. Now of course there is hoping that the hotels actually have laundry service or at least know of a good laundromat, or I'm dirty girl come day 10 or so...

Rightyho, have some last minute stuff to do - like clean this filthy apartment! Must get on...

Did I Muss Summer??

I'm on vacation, which is great. Then again, we're in the country off on the farm, and it's been raining since we got here a week ago. The dams that we used to have holding fish and crayfish burst and flooded fields etc. last Monday. So, I am of the definite oppinion that it is time for the rain to STOP! I want Summer! I've made myself go swimming all of twice, to get it over with - but I still want to go in the sun and because I'm hot at some point... Well, we have another week here, so let's hope it gets better. At this point I'm just going to keep my hopes up for California. If it rains then too, I am going to be sooooo upset! Then again we're going cayacking with wales so I'm thinking my mind will be less on the fact that I'm still pale as in winter, and more on the wales :)

Rain

I am sick of this rain! Whatever happened to Summer?? Only three more days left of work until I get my vacation. Bless vacation! Sometimes I really would love a fast forward button on some things... Can I go home now?

A Good Day Today

Relaxing is the game... Because - today I finally got my internship sorted. Unless something unforeseen happens, I will be at Svensk Fastighetsförmedling for four weeks. Woohoo! It's even something I'm happy with!

And on top of that I managed to sell my old bed for 2500, and it's being picked up today. The apartment is just about sorted and emptied of unnecessary crap. Everything is booked for our trip in a few weeks AND I only have 3 more days at my job that I still despise... Had started pretending that it might be better than I remembered, but no. I still want out. And I WILL get another job after school is done. That's all there is to it. Happy happy days! :)
