Monday night and I am just done helping Karolina and Victoria with their History through cinema project for tomorrow and I am just finishing my english homework.

It has been a good Monday, yes they do actually exist. School went pretty fast maybe because I spent one period just singing and paying guitar, practicing my guitar project and we spent criminal law just watching a movie. After school me, Karolina, Ingunn, Anthony, Nick and Alex went home to Ingies to play pool, ping-pong and foosball and just chill.

And I swear Karolina tried to give me a heart-attack twice today by storming into my room screaming once to wake me up when Victoria was here which didn't make it any less scary. She should know better. And yes even I have started to takes naps, surprising I know but if you don't have any sports to play and are really sleepy that's something you can do.

And tomorrow I can sleep in till 9ish since the seniors dont have to come in before 10 cause the juniors are taking tests. Well I guess being senior has it privileges, it is going to be weird to go back to Sweden and not be the oldest in school.

Well I better finish my outline for English now. Sleep tight!

 

 

Hello todays wednesday and that means that we could sleep in till 7.30 am :) and t gets even better tomorrow, friday, monday and tuesday we can sleep in till 10 am because the juniors have tests so they give seniors sleep in :) and then its wednesday again with special schedule so it is gonna be a good week :D. Right now not much is happening just working on final projects in every class and it is going pretty good good grades and everything typical me to get good grades when the grades doesn't count. I wonder if the teachers back in sweden can take after the american school system so I can get A's and B's there to x).

 

Here's the last pictures from the Costume night.

 

Me and Pippi Longstocking( Sandra)

 

Hello today has been a good Monday for once, yes they do exist. I am still in a good mood from skiing last weekend. I really need to sign up for the ski club because not doing anything is driving me a bit crazy.

Right now school is getting a bit more intense with the end of this semester coming up and final stuff in every class. I am working on a research paper in English in which I'm going to compare the American lifestyle vs. the Swedish lifestyle in the 1920's since we just finished reading the Great Gatsby. In guitar me and a friend is doing a cover of Hero of war by Rise against, that I've done before on piano but it is so much harder to sing and play guitar than it is to play he piano and sing. But I'm not the one to say no to a challenge. I am not sure what we are doing in piano, criminal law and statistics yet but I'm sure things are coming up there to.

Today it was a Basketball game, which we lost but it was really fun anyways because it was costume night so everyone was in a costume a very good mixture of hobbits, state champs, devils, Dorothy from the wizard of Oz, walking bushes, wrestlers, a penguin, Frosty the snowman and even Pippi Longstocking (Pippi Långstrump) had found their way to the game. I was a PV-Devil :D. After the game we went to McDonalds thats the same, we hangout at McDonalds.

Now I'm going to sleep it's a day tomorrow to and I have finally gone back to my normalish sleep pattern.

Hello hope you all had a great weekend. I am right now watching Once upon a time and after that it is time for Revenge a great way to end the weekend with my two favorite shows after each other. Today has been a very calm day, a stay in your sweatpants all day kind of day, laundry and some homework and just chilling. I have soar arms and legs from skiing and snowboarding yesterday with the exchange students.

we went to Roundtop Mountain and skied for about 8 hours yesterday and since we haven't been doing any working out since the tennis stopped and thats a while ago. It was so much fun skiing again and me and Karolina switched equipment for a while since we have the same shoe size. So i was snowboarding and its hard a lot harder than skiing but it would be fun to learn how to so who knows I might try it again sometime.

And I have more chances to ski this year, we are all 3 of us me, Karolina and Ingunn are sining up for the ski club with the school so we are going skiing a couple of fridays after school :).

Tomorrow I am going to the orthodontist to check my braces and see if I need to tighten them one more time or if I can take them off, I hope for the later :D.

Now I'm going to pay attention to the shows, goodnight everybody!

Här har vi haft familjemiddag med Daves släkt och det kom snö ca 30 min innan alla skulle hit så det blev lite färre folk än det va planerat men det gjorde ingenting huset var packat ändå.

Imorgon ska vi öppna presenter och sen ska vi till Daves dotter och äta lunch och sen får vi se vad som händer.

God Jul till er alla, mamma, Lollo, Tess, pappa, Mormor, Morfar-Calle, Ullet, Jim, William, Michael alla hundar, katter, kaniner, hästar och alla underbara vänner hemma Sverige.

Hello so this is the last night of the thanksgiving break and we have to go to school. We have had some fun couple of days, we ate way too much and been spending time with friends. We went to see Skyfall, me, Ingunn, Karolina, Alex, Kevin and Luke. We have played pool and pingpong with with Alex and Anthony. Karolina made a cake. And the best part I had NO homework, the teacher seems to actually care about our vacation here instead like the teacher in Sweden that will assign the test and the essays right after the break, no offense but we could use some breaks like this in Sweden.

We got snow today.......like what...no I get enough of that in Sweden can we just wait with the snow at least till December please. But if it has to snow can it snow so we don't have to go to school tomorrow :D.

Right now we are watching AFV and we just had supper and I think we used the last of the turkey but I'm not sure we might have some more.

Hope you are all good :D
