Not much gets me into watching any kind of team based sport any kind. This is the singe exception. This is the only reason I know that Sweden lost to Paraguay 0-1.

You must admit. It is pretty catchy.

Haven't been here for a while. Time just seems to pass me by like the currents in a mountain river. In the same manner it feels as if it brings me closer and closer to the waterfall.

Holiday is coming up, only two more weeks to go. Six months ago I was writing post after post about how much I had learned and how much...

I am not a great fan of Christina Aguilera, but there is a line in one of ther songs that strikes me every time I hear it. It is in the middle of her song "Mercy on me".
"...my deceitful evil ways are growing stronger by the day.."
I can't say why these particular lines get me every time. The song is a repent...

First to know? I bet you might have even known sooner than that, if that makes sense, it does to me anyways. biggrin

Glad to hear things are going well, at least seemingly so. biggrin

...and then they were thirty-four.

Yesterday we had a party at my place. It was actually not supposed to be anything big, just us girls gathering over a glass of wine or two together, but the Int-guys had asked what we were doing that night. When they heard about our plans they asked if they could come over too, and around eight I had some...

Well, no, you can't be his conscience. It's not that you enabled his behavior.

The ethical problem comes in rewarding that behavior. The better it is to be that guy, the more guys become like him. (Also, there's no reason to think he wouldn't do the exact same thing to you, though whether you get seriously involved with him or not is beside the point.) Now, if you don't particularly care about monogamy, that may not be an issue for you. But based on what you said above, it seems you do.

Ah, so he's one of those impulse>regret types. Those always drive me nuts.

I really should start drawing something other than 1920's pinup girls. People might start wondering.
accuser:
Nah. They've already figured it out.

The more I see of Lady Gaga, the more I have to admire her work. In general I dismiss pop artists that only produce dance hall hits as nothing more than single minded overgrown cheerleaders and at first I regarded Lady Gaga as nothing more than at soon to pass some hits wonder.

Then I saw the video for Bad Romance one morning - and...

Went to the gym with the new girl today. She's young, athletic, very social and, by Oden, it is so nice to work out with somebody who doesn't consider it a proper workout unless you're lifting something heavier than 80 kg. We had great fun, more fun than I've had in the gym for a long time. I also got to speak a little to...

So, a couple of days ago I found out why Bobby hadn't been in touch since we came back from winter training. I had thought it a bit odd, considering how his Sunday night suggestions up to this point had been as regular as clockwork since December, and now there had been two weeks of - nothing.
No texts, no MSN, not a word at...

I've been looking at ways to get into decent shape lately. Yesterday while roaming the internet I found this article about something called "barefoot running", which turned out to be exactly what it sounds like - barefoot running. In the wakes of this I found this lecture by Christopher McDougall, where he speaks about the native tribes of South America and how they are able...

This is interesting, but you have very good grammar. Yep, I'm more interested in your grammar skills. You can call me weird if you want, but it has been a while since I've read something non-academic without run-on sentences and sentence fragments. Too many people just don't know how to use the comma.

To stay on topic, maybe I'll try running barefoot, just not outside. That could be painful.

In awaiting the new election, Sweden is at present haunted by the burning policial issue about maids and their being or not being. One of Sweden's biggest newspapers has apparently taken this issue to hearts and proudly exclaims that they "have spoken to the very people the debate concerns - the cleaners!"

I find it rather ironic. We never saw that headline in the prostitution...

Especially when we all know that politicians love talking to prostitutes,or at least a handful every year are caught doing so over here. biggrin
the_matt79:
That is rather paradoxal in nature. It reminds me of Nevada over here, I wonder how the politicians are looked at there as it is the one state in the US that has legalized prostitution in certain areas, so if the politicians went there it would be fine, technically, but if it got out they would probably no longer have a career. I bet they still do though, at least the lower level ones that aren't married probably do.
