Something weird is going on here. My favorite American TV channel is now coming to Swedish broadcasting systems. Comedy Central, if you guys want to believe my poor sense of humor. I can't help my weakness for stand-up or the cheesy stuff like MAD-TV thats circulating on that channel.
ugh.

When you least expected it....
So as I sit on my sick bed, locked in my room for the second straight day of hacking out my lungs and freezing to death despite the numerous blankets I’ve burrowed myself in, I realized that maybe now would be a supreme time to update my dead and withered blog.
I kind of feel guilty for not having updated and so on but at the same time- not. I mean I see it as a good sign that I haven’t been updating much lately because that means that I have actually been busy and focusing on the real world and not the one in my computer.
I guess I do feel bad about leaving you guys right around the holidays, but hey here I am now so take or leave it.
Lots of stuff has happened around good ol’ Örebro and Kumla, too much to really talk about in detail without making this blog entry ridiculously long and subsequently ridiculously boring as well. So I guess I can give a quick, undetailed run down. Wow I just made up a word…..undetailed.
Christmas= Food one must be brave to try, creepy santa coming to pass out gifts Christmas eve.
New Years= Party with friends, fireworks, visitors…..etc
Back to school after the break= new wonderful schedule where I hardly go to school, clothes shopping, birthday parties, drama
And zoom to the present as I sit writing this coughing up a lung and dizzy in my state of feverishness. I don’t really know any exciting mind blowing news to tell you. Life has been pretty normal.
It’s weird how when first coming to a new country everything feels so different and so new. You can’t walk outside without thinking ‘wow…I’m in another country’ you tend to notice things that you don’t in your own country because they are so familiar. But now that I’ve been here six months going on seven it’s as though I never came from a different country.
It feels comfortable here, and sometimes I even forget that the Claessons are not my real family. I think I missed home the most during the holidays, but now I feel like I am home.
It’s going to be really hard to have to say goodbye to all the friends and relationships I have made here in Sweden. But it is getting closer to that day when I get on the plane home. I remember last year when I was talking to my friends about going to Sweden and when I first got accepted. I was so excited and I thought I had so long to wait, but the time went by so fast and here even though a year sounds like an awfully long time it’s literally flown by.
Oh and I also posted a new video. If anyone is interested in seeing a nearly seven minute vid of pictures (and a few videos).

Swedish for this post is- Jag älskar dig (Jag elscar day)
It means- I love you
