The dad of my friend J needs a triple heart bypass.
Her sister (married with 2 kids) went to Barbados before Christmas and still hasn't come back.
A friend of J and I committed suicide and I only found out today. I don't know when the funeral was, but I missed it. I feel bad that I didn't speak to him the last time I...

no, to much death and misery.

i hope things go better for you, as far as your friends go, soon
Spent the day with the extended family today and quite enjoyed myself. My teenie weenie (favourite) cousin, who I remember being born in 1994, is 11 next month and all the rest of my cousins are growing up equally quickly. Consequently, conversation was actually mildly interesting and only briefly touched on "ooh, I wonder who the next person to get married will be"? which I...

Hello- been home for 4 whole days now, having a good time, relaxing and stuff, but going back to Sweden on Thursday feels too soon already... lots to do in the next 4 days, though- maybe I'll feel more like it when I go.

Finally came home for Christmas today. Lots of travel problems, but I was in no hurry and it just meant I sat on the plane for about 4 hours instead of 2. Nice to be back, though.
Being home, I no longer have my super-nippy broadband hook-up so my internet feels slower than a hippy tortoise on the 3rd day of Woodstock, wading through a...

thelastbeliever:

Oh good grief.... (I've been saying that a lot recently)
Corridor Christmas party last night. Cooked up a huge meal in our common room thing then set about a tour of (theoretically) every person's room on the corridor (11 rooms), each person presenting a different drink.
A few people dropped out (having just come back from S.E.Asia, this was excuseable) and a few people really...

Thanks for the birthday wishes! Hey now...I just turned 25 and you are 100% right. My hangovers are getting worse...but maybe its because I drink more the older I get!

Trekked up to Uppsala (40 mins north of Stockholm) on Sunday and stayed with some friends from my home uni until this morning. I think we were all equally happy to see each other, and it gave me a completely new perspective on Sweden, just in time for me to go home to England in 7 days....

Oj, vilket sprkgeni du r. 
Sjlv r jag inte s bra p sprk, mer p matte och naturvetenskap. Lrde du dig svenska helt genom dina kompisar?
Mtp r en frkortning p "med tanke p". S det r inte s konstigt om du inte visste vad det var.
Just nu har jag ett studieuppehll, men brjar plugga igen i januari. D blir det svenska, litteratur & litterturvetenskap, filosofi, psykologi, historia och religionskunskap.

Translating from Swedish to French I could handle. I was not, however, expecting to translate into Swedish. Taking the exam with native speakers, the level of Swedish expected of me was way above what I'm capable of and I'm not expecting to have done well at all.
If I pass this exam I may well buy myself a new guitar as some kind of...

Mate, it's impressive you can translate from one foriegn language to another: I have enough difficulty translating from Cockey to English sometimes! 
I'm sure the exam went well, and get yourself a strat if you do buy a guitar, or a thinline tele

Oh how life can repeat itself.
Last week, you may remember I was stressing out about an essay that I wasn't sure if I'd get done on time because I had a sore throat/cold. It pretty much went away by Saturday and I was fine until about Wed when I went out to a smokey club, over-exerted myself and it came back.

Had my last lesson of my 1st semester in Sweden this afternoon. Written French exam on Saturday, trip to Uppsala for a couple of days and then a French oral exam on Thursday and then I will be done for Christmas.

hey thanks: any advice on the lingo is appreciated
teenagesuperstar:
well i am serious about going to Finland with or without her: going to Northern Europe has always been a dream of mine, and working for Nokia in Finland seems ideal
Someone told me before I left for Sweden that they thought my life was gonna change a lot this year and I didn't really believe them. I told myself that there were some things in my life that would never change or go away and I was certain about it.
I have to admit, though, that those things have actually changed after all- friendships I've...

Nope, I meant what I said.
Relaxation.
My cold/sore throat thing has now gone, which is good- spent last night sweating it off in bed (nice thought, I know) and felt a fair amount better this morning.
Finished my essay at last this afternoon- the stupid thing was that after all the stress of trying to get it finished, I went to my lecturer's office and he'd already gone home for...

you must love big brother. he will protect you from eur/eastasia's "terrorism."
women are hot everywhere, women are universal. this is probably the only thing keeping the countries from just blowing each other off the planet.

i'd say it was more like: "Those people can't even stare at their women like good americans! what's wrong with them?? we need to invade and Liberate those innocent women from those heavy. oppressive clothes!!" hehe.
Good grief- supposed to be finishing off my French essay tonight BUT
Have had a weird sore throat thing for a couple of days which has made me feel like I perpetually need a drink, but I've been drinking way too much for it to be that.
It's developing into a head cold thing
I'm tired because my body clock has gone into random mode...
