My family were over during the Easter weekend. It was awesome to see them. I miss them more and more. During the last few years myself and my sisters have gotten closer. i think it's cause we can, a) all go drinking together, b) one of us can drive us home, c) they have gotten funnier. I think my parents find it strange that we are not all at home anymore. My sister Laura has lived in London this year for college, last year it was Belfast, the year before was in Dublin. I lived in Dublin for the previous three years but before moving here we were all at home for 3 to 6 months. My little sister Hélèné is in college in Dublin and is commuting at the moment but I think soon she will be living in Dublin. This might be hard on my parents because she has always been around at home while myself and Laura have been everywhere else. Although we have taking her with us to anything that she could get into and since Hélèné has been at least 18 from the age of 16 that has been many places.
I really miss going out with them. They can look out for me, I can look out for them. It was a good system we had going.
While the whole family was over it was kinda hard cause Malmö ain't exactly a tourist place at the end of winter, beginning of spring but we had some nice walks, good food, bowling, Legoland, shopping, drinking. Good but maybe I have to use the saying everyone in Sweden keeps telling me, " You should be here in the summer!"
Mister Joe Panama is flying over tomorrow (Wednesday, so today technically.) I am very excited. A VOLCANO has been messing with this which is fucked cause it's a VOLCANO! Like what the fuck, a VOLCANO! Crazy. But airspace between Ireland and Denmark is open and Norwegian are flying. Class.
I'm hoping that Joe will have a good time while he is here. Will be going to a show at the local venue
Utkanten. Working on getting Famine and Forced Out to play there when they are on tour in the summer. Will probably explore some of København as well as Malmö, do some creeping, walk and have coffee and eating falafel(cause really, that is what you can do in Malmö)
I'm really looking forward to hanging out with one of the lads, there is no Swedish version of "Lads". I haven't been home since January. That said the last two months flew by but April is taking it's time!
This weekend is also Ciara's party which I was really looking into getting flights home for. It sucks to miss all the parties for whatever occasion, be it birthdays, moving, Friday! I keep having the discussion with people of why I am here, and what I am doing and how long I am staying cause that's all anyone here wants to know! and I do think I am going to be here for quite some time. It's fun here but I won't forget home.
I'm home from May19th till the 26th, party karaoke, creeping, gig(s), hanging out. can't wait!
In other news I will be taking my test for my Swedish class on May 5th. I had a mock test yesterday. I think it went ok. If the actually test is similar I will be in the next grade with no problems. Jag måste försöka tala svenska oftare, and I really need to learn how to spell stuff. Also Lost is possibly the greatest show on TV. I started to watch it a few weeks ago because I saw that this was the last season. I had tried to watch it before but it was on a few different stations and I couldn't follow it. But I got all the seasons and now I have caught up and I hate having to wait for each episode now!!
