The End?

I do apoligize for the lack of updates. It's been some crazy weeks! and let's start with the big news;

I am not going back to Eastbourne.

I am not going to tell you the detailed reason for it, but what I'm going to tell you is that it wasn't my choice. And I'm sure (and I secretly hope) it wasn't Carolines choise either. She had trouble keeping me which means I'm still in Sweden. I'm going to miss England, I'm going to miss all the people I've met, all the fun things I've seen and experienced. But most and formest, I'm going to miss Harry. My little Mario geek. But I am glad to know that everything is still there. just because I'm not going back right now, doesn't mean I never will go there again. Harry and Caroline is still there, and I hope I'm going to see them again soon.

Everything became so much more real today, because today I recived my things. Everything. My room is a big mess at the moment.

Now to the funny stuff, I am going to give you a quick summary of my first weeks here in Sweden.

The first week
I met up with as many people I could. Met up with Josse, we visited the Cinema and watched Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Had so much fun meeting her again! I've also met David and Hanna! was fun as well. been hanging out with Hanna quite a lot the last days of the first week. We went to a big party in a park, danced, met people and stuff.
Been seeing Cornelia and Isac as much as I could as well. Isac has now moved to Stockholm, so we'll see when I'll be meeting him again.
Oh, and the most important part. Last friday I met my family (not all of them), lots of hugs and questions.
There is a part of my family I still haven't met. That's the part I haven't seen in two, almost three, months. I think that's the longest I've been away from them. I haven't met them because of an accident. a rather nasty accident, including a bike, a spleen and a week at the Astrid Lindgrens children hospital in Stockholm. But my Hero is home now and recovering.

This week(the second one) has been filled with stuff. I went to my sister AC because her daughter Clara was sick. So to let them go to work like normal, I stayed with Clara for the whole day. She got better uring the day, but then we got Holger.. and he, too, got sick (not the same sickness), and he had to stay at home for the rest of the week. but we had fun! those weekdays ended with a party on the friday. Clara and Holger's father Tony turned 40, so the party was pretty big, with lots of food (waaay to much), a huge tent, a muddy floor(after the three days of rain) and muddy shoes! we had fun! it was fun! and me and AC are soon going to Stockholm to see Josh Groban.. LIVE! We're so excited!
So yesterday we got home and almost immediately I went to Filipstad where I met up with Tim! Haven't seen him in months! we made ourselves ready and went to a friend's house where some more friends (who I haven't met in over a year) where. and later that evening we arrived at the "beer tent" where The swedish-band-who-is-irish-inspired, called Dublin Fair, were gonna play. as we swaited we drank, talked, danced and had fun. whenit was time we were at the front screaming our lungs out, jumping up and down, and sang at the top of our lungs. It was so epic. so much speed! 

Me and Tim got home at two, we fell asleep to Bear Brothers and woke up at ten. I'm still sleep walking.

So that's that. the six weeks in England can possibly be the best weeks in my life. These two Weeks in Sweden have been so good! and now?  don't know. We'll see what the future has to offer. I can honestly say it's not looking too bright, but I might have some luck.

And now to the big question:
What to do about this blog? I don't know if I'm gonna keep it and keep update. or put it down. what do you think? would you still read it even if it's not about my adventure in Eastbourne and the UK? Tell me in a comment please.

Road to Town

 This is the road I have to walk almost every day to get into town. it takes about 20-30 minutes. It may not be the best nor funniest walk in the world, but it's walking distance to the civilization, which is something pretty new. Every photo is taken at the end of the next one. (This post was requested by my sister Matilda)

1. The road almost outside our house. 2. the road between ESK (a store with many cheep things). 3. some... road. 4. road

5. the "big" road, (behind me is traffic lights. you can see why it's needed. 6. road (obviously). 7. now it's just the incredibly long road with only houses. 8. the funniest thing is that even though the house looks the same, they are all very different.

 9. walk walk. 10. I believe you can see the mall at the end. well the back entrance of the mall. 11. Mall to the left. 12. train station to the right. Some trains goes straight to London. yes, I love it.

13. This is the backside of the train station (you can see it on the clock tower), the library is somewhere behind me and the center is in front of me, as well as the mall and all the pubs.

Last Few Days

Last Friday I met Nina for the first time. We took a trip to the mall to buy some things and just to, you know, hang out. She is also an Au Pair from Sweden and we've been mailing a little bit a short time before I came. We didn't have one silent moment and it was loads of fun. But it was the evening the most fun started. We met in the city and went to a pub for a drink... or two... to start with... We took a trip to another pub close by (but with much more people) and ordered a 'Sex on the Beach' Each. we obviously thought we would only get a glass each, but we got one pitch full each... We laughed about it for almost an hour. Later Nina's friend Chris came and we spent the rest of the evening talking and laughing with him. 

Saturday; Harry's best friend came over with her mother and little brother. they stayed the day and left the house in a mess. Later Caroline and Roshan went out so I could have Harry for myself for a few hours. It was really fun, Watched a film or two, ran around in the garden chasing each other, made a few pages in his 'learn-how-to-write'-book and tried to play the Mario Theme Song on the Keyboard. 

Yesterday we went out camping over the day. Harry got a little blue tent, we had a big beach tent, we made a fire, ate some food and enjoyed the nature in the 'Forest'. The road to the place was incredibly beautiful. Just how I've imagined the country side here in England. I was in heaven. When we'd been there for a few hours we continued our trip to walk a few miles by a river and to the Sea. that was beautiful as well and I'm gonna share a few photos. Enjoy. (They are not in Order.)

Boat trip

So yesterday, we went to the harbor to go on a boat ride to beachy head, (yes, beachy head again) and I must say we had a great time. we saw the light house and the seven sisters. and we got there in super speed. I won't bore you, I'll just show some of the photos. This time, they're a little bit edited.

Hello Eastbourne

when you're inte the aircraft, it seems like the time has stopped. especially over the ocean. you can see the waves, but they doesn't seem to move.
The journey went spectacular, until I got to Gatwick.. I got a bit lost at first, but found my way to Caroline and Harry in the end. I also met her future sister in law and her brother. both very kind! before we made our way home to Eastbourne we stopped at her Brother to get something to eat and drink. all the way there I got a lesson about Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2.
After that we went home, got home rather late, so after a quick tour of the house we went straight to bed. The room is very small, but I love it! gonna unpack later.
Just gave Harry his presents, he loved them! train train all around! haha. I got some colours and brushes to paint with! so sweet.
Later we're going to Harry's school fair. gonna be cool!
Well, I'm fine. they are all lovely and incredibly funny, and I feel so good! Talk to you later!
