Home Exam.

Picture: We heart it

It's time for yet another home exam. It will be released today at 12 PM and to be honest I am a little bit nervous so cross your fingers for me and wish me luck these two upcoming days!

The Weekend.

Hey dear readers! I apologize for the bad updates during this weekend. I headed to Stockholm last Friday and stayed until Sunday morning since I had to return to Örebro and work during the afternoon. All in all it was a busy weekend with lots of scheduled meetings with both family and friends. 

On Friday evening V surprised me with all the ingredients to do a home-made pizza! A fun fact is that every time he and I decide to go out and eat pizza I always order a "Hawaii" with extra pineapple on it and 90% of the time I end up disappointed since they don't put enough pineapple (according to the proportions that I desire - for I am truly obsessed of this fruit!!). The pizza turned out to be so good and we had lots of fun while making it :) V also bought a package of three of those aluminium cans with pineapple inside it - just to make his girlfriend happy and satisfied! My sweet, sweet love ♥ 

After dinner we watched The internship featuring Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn. Both V and I laughed a lot during the movie, not to mention the great soundtrack that was in the movie. A movie definitely worth watching and interesting to get an insight of the big company Google. 

Saturday morning I headed out to my old neighborhood (30 min train ride from Stockholm) to visit two little boys that I used to babysit a few years ago. I might have mentioned them before? Anyway since these two upcoming weekends are all about Halloween I decided to paint two mini-pumpkins to the boys like the ones my friends and I painted at the Halloween night at my place. The golden pumpkins made a huge success! I got a bit sentimental when I saw how much the boys had grown... Crazy how time flies. So many old memories flashed by my eyes and it's hard to describe how much joy these two little boys have given me throughout the years. Definitely one of the highlights this weekend! ♥

The day followed by a nice lunch with my parents, my brother E and his friend R in town. We talked a lot about our universities but also a lot about the new iPhone 5s that was recently released, I believe it was last week? I love how E and I always get so "geeky" when it comes to these kind of things such as technology. I realized how much I miss my family, especially my brothers. 

Saturday evening continued with a lovely dinner at V's parent's place. We talked a lot about V's upcoming birthday (He will be 30 in december!) and our plans for Christmas. We also watched a movie before V and I went home. I had to get up pretty early the morning after to catch my train back to Örebro. The weekend flew by and I'm amazed that I managed to do so many things. But more importantly I enjoyed the time that  I spent with the people that mean the most to me.

Happy Halloween.

Picture: Collage made by me

Last night I had four of my friends over to paint Marshmellows and pumpkins in all different kinds of sizes. Before their arrival I had decorated my apartment with black skull balloons, candles and my dining table was filled with lots of delicious treats such as green spookie cupcakes and a spider web chocolate cake. 

As you can see on the pictures in the collage above we painted pumpkins in both gold and white but also painted different faces and figures on marshmellows. I found these great pencils with eatable colour in them so the girls were so surprised when I said that they could eat their creations after finishing painting them! Over and all, the evening turned out to  be a success! I had lots of fun painting the pumpkins and I have planned to give away one or two later this weekend.. ;) Happy Halloween!

Autumn Day.

Picture: Taken by V & me

V and I headed out for a long walk earlier today and decided to take some pictures in the beautiful environment. I can't believe how fast these three days have passed us by but we have had a really good time together. V is on his way home to Stockholm and I can't help that I miss him already.. Luckily we will see each other on Friday again! ♥

The blog pause has ended.

Hello dear readers. It's been far too long since I have written anything here in the blog. I just realized that the last post that I made was in February earlier this year.. Crazy! 

The truth is that I have been occupied with my studies at the University and all that comes along with it such as friends, social events, work etc. Not to mention my private life consisting of my boyfriend (V and I have been a couple for 20 months now so yes we are still going strong!) along with my family of course. 

Anyway, I was just thinking about the blog earlier today and thought why not start writing again? I have missed writing on a daily basis and therefore I'm hoping to start doing so again. I can start off by telling you about this last weekend! V came to visit me here in Örebro and we spent Friday, Saturday and most of Sunday together and with my friends here. 

It feels like we have been doing so many fun things! Friday evening we stayed at home, Saturday we spent some time in town and had a great evening with my friends and all of their boyfriends - we were 4 couples all together! And today (Sunday) we woke up around noon after last night's party and decided to head out for a nice walk around the area before meeting up with the group from last night to have pizza together. 

V's train was a bit delayed and left around 9 PM tonight but I stayed with him at the train station at least for a little while and my heart wished it could have stayed for so much longer.. It's just never going to get easier to say good bye, not even after having a distance-relationship for 20 months. 

Still, it's a new day tomorrow and new week. I should get ready for bed now since I've got a long day with lectures tomorrow. I wish you all a good night's sleep! I'll write more tomorrow!
