Wow! I am incredibly sorry that it has taken so long to write another post! Really, from now on I am going to be trying to update this more frequently...time just goes by so fast here!
Well, it is April and I look out the window and all I see is clouds, rain and cold...and they are predicting snow for this week! I am ready for Spring! Although, to be fair, when the sun is shining, it is great because the days are so much longer now, which I am into. We had to change the clocks last week because of daylight savings...which was interesting, you go into a building and you are never really sure what time it is, because you don't know if they have changed the clocks or not!
Went on a cruise to Helsinki last Tuesday, that was a ton of fun! Although the senior citizen population to students was quite high we still managed to cause some chaos and have a lot of fun! On the trip back from Helsinki a few of us really wanted to do some karaoke, and lucky for us there was a karaoke hour! So we went to the 'fun club' and settled in for a fun hour of karaoke...only to discover the entire bar was probably about 55+ and the 'karaoke' taking place was old finnish songs, that couples were getting up and dancing to! You don't waltz to karaoke! Nevertheless, about halfway through the hour a few of us were called up to do our selection...Wonderwall by Oasis, which shook things up a bit! The best part was that one of the older couples got up and was dancing to it! Too funny.
On Friday was the much anticipated 'Pink' party...for which I actually went to a store and purchased pink! It was a great time, everywhere you looked in China you were blinded by a pink outfit...I hope to NEVER see that much pink at one time ever again! Linda, Shan and I even decided that we should have pink drinks!
Then bright and early the next day, Linda, Yulisa, Shannan and I journeyed off to Göteburg! (To say this word you have to picture yourself as a jolly plump man with a curly moustache, it is really the only way to properly say it...and it is sort of pronounced Yotebory) There was a mild intention of doing some sight-seeing, but the interest to shop much outweighed these intentions! We did however see the Opera house (which I would NOT include as sightseeing...there was absolutely nothing exciting about this building, regular buildings in the streets were much more amazing!) and made a trip to see the famous statue of Gustav! The weather was not sight-seeing weather so we were more than happy to spend our time inside the malls, checking out the new spring fashions! I found this amazing black dress, that I am very enthused about wearing!
What else can I mention about life currently? Shan and I are planning a games night couchland for tomorrow night at Sockertoppen, one of the many exciting events we as Culture Section Chiefs plan! It should be a great time, hopefully people show up! Well we always have our friends that we force to come to every event we plan...they are so nice! Haha.
Well, nothing much else to report right now, really hoping for sunshine, but we will see! Off to Frankfurt this weekend, so expect an exciting story soon! xoxo.
