Welcome to my blog!

Swedish girl brought up on the country side. Now living in Linköping, 5th biggest town in Sweden. Been studying photography fall 2010 and enjoyed it much. Living at the moment with 9 other young people at the boarding school. Used to be active in politics some years back, but today not at all.

Spare time is often filled with painting, photographing, music and TV shows. Got a half Siamese cat named Bitchen. Favorite holiday is Christmas. Three women who are inspirational: Beyonce, Isabella Löwengrip and Mom.

New semester, new class

So i have a new class and a new theme this semester! Last semester my theme was "Photography", but now it is "The human being". This will probably be very interesting and i am looking forward to get started!

The main elements we are gonna study are:
  • The human being's origin and evolution
  • The anatomy and function of the human body
  • Fundamental human needs and group dynamics
  • Ethology (includes a trip to the biggest zoo amongst the Nordic countries to study apes)
  • Health perspectives
  • Genetics and genetic engineering

It's been a long december




Right so... it has been a long and nice holiday. Spent it at mother's place in Söderhamn together with her, little brother Jesper and big brother Christoffer plus his girlfriend. We all absolutely LOVE christmas and we had some nice couple of days together. Also spent some time at granny's place and looked after Sigbritt, our family's dog, for a couple of days. After New Years Eve, i traveled together with Christoffer and Annika to Skövde to spend a couple of days there with them, before going home to Linköping to start school again. Had a total slack time with PC games and some Call of Chtulhu rpging.
Finally went home, looking forward to start school again, on January 11th.

Ending of this semester

Packing my things to go home over the holidays. This semester ends tomorrow and after school, i will take the train to Söderhamn. I bet 100 SEK that the train will be late. So typical. :)

My little personal exhibition of photos has been up for a week, and yesterday i had two paintings in the painting class exhibition. One painting will be a Christmas gift for my big brother and his gf. The photos will be taken down tomorrow before i leave. will see if i can bring it with me to show a few of the pictures at home. I also have to remember to empty my mac computer and save all photos i have taken! It has been a fun semester indeed :)

You've got mail

Been a couple of hectic and very stressful days lately with loads of school work due to the end of this semester closing in. Exams, two exhibitions (one is the group project we've done, and one is a solo exhibition), ordinary schoolwork, and more that has to be done. People have been sick or just absent in my group as well, so we are way behind schedule :( Even i am sick at the moment with a dry cough. I am sipping hot milk with honey every morning when i get up, every day when i get home from school and every night before i bed. Good thing it doesn't only make your throat feel a bit better, it is kinda yummy too :3

Today I got some goodies in my pigeon hole :D I had ordered a poster online some week ago, and it arrived today. Sent all the way from Moldova :)

This is what it looked like :D

Sorry for bad quality on the pictures. Took them with my phone :)
So yeah. Everyone in class got super interested in what it contained so i had to open it to show them. When i got home i put it on my wall. Or well. It isn't my "wall" exactly. Just a huge ugly orange message board. Yes, the more i have to cover it with, the better!


So there she is now. The Queen. The one and only. Beyoncé. :)

Fika tournament

Went to café Myran this evening to be social with the people there and see what people would challenge Kristofer who was the one who won the Fika tournament the past two years. Last year he was there fikaing non stop for over 40 hours or something. Crazy stuff. i am not even gonna compete cos i feel old and i get tired and wanna bed at 10pm. But i was there for a few hours, playing games and eating goodies like sandwiches and pie and cookies.

Anniversary and trip to Söderhamn

Today school celebrated its 50th anniversary. Had some performances and tenderloin for lunch, and cake after. I had to skip the cake though cos I had to catch the train to Söderhamn! First weekend going home after i moved here. Mom will be in Sthlm over the weekend, so i will be at her place alone, looking after her cats and Bitchen who is staying there whilst i live in Linköping. I miss Bitchen :(



Billy is coming to Sweden this weekend, that is why mom is away to pick him up etc. I will go home on Sunday but i have already booked tickets to come back here in two weeks. That's when they are getting married. :)

Norrköping

Today we've been to Norrköping on a field trip to take some pictures! We also went to a museum to see a big collection of black and white photographs. Was nice to see a new town. Took a couple of pictures around the industry landscape and downtown. Got a few pictures on my creative page.
