SWEDEN
Hej :)
Exactely 1 year ago I moved to Sweden... On the 17th of August 2007 I took an early flight to Karlstad. I was nervous, scared and excited and I'm so glad that I did it...
It's funny, this whole weekend seemed to be like a big "Sweden-weekend". First I went through all the pictures I took in Sweden, sorted out the best ones and ordered a printed copy of them. It wasn't an easy task because - as you can imagine - I took a lot of pictures in Sweden. I ended up ordering quite a lot of pictures - I won't mention the number, because it's too high ;)
Anyway, today I met Sina in Innsbruck (see picture) - she's a german girl who studied in Karlstad. She was my neighbour and took the same courses as me, so we were quite good friends. It was great to see her again and talk about the "good old times" in Sweden ;)
Unbelievable that it's been one year since my departure...Though I know that I wrote it many many times, I'll say it once again - I WANT TO GO BACK! And I know I'm going to...someday.
However, I have a not-so-nice souvenir from sweden - my broken arm. :P Tomorrow I will go to the hospital and I HOPE/I beg/I pray that everything will be OK. I know I shouldn't have high hopes, but somehow I hope that they will remove the cast. I have no pain, I can move my fingers (better than the last time), I feel that my arm shrinked to half the size it used to be (which is a good sign, usually ;) )...so it would be great to finally "get my arm back". The first thing I would do - take a loooong bath. I don't want to think of all the bacterias and dirt on the arm, since it's been 3 months since I cleaned it ;) eeeeew ;)
However, as I said - I don't want to put my hopes too high, I guess I will get another cast for 2-3 weeks. Anyway, as long as I don't need another surgery I'm happy...otherwise..I don't know what I will do, probably freak out and destroy the emergency room... :P
Sooo....good night :)

Love me...kill me...thrill me
Hi everybody :)
I just came back from the cinema...this afternoon my boss asked me if I wanted to go to a preview of a TV station - they will show two episodes of new series that will start in autumn - the series were "Californiacation" (with David Duchovny) and "Dexter". I know and LOVE Dexter since I watched both seasons in Sweden and I've heard a lot of good things about Californiacation...so it didn't take me long to say YES.
And I must say...the dubbing of Dexter SUCKS. First of all, the voices sound so strange, especially if you're used to the original voice...and of course, the translation was a bit strange ("scheiße" just doesn't sound as strong as "F*ck"...). And I *think* they edited some scenes, but I'm not sure... And "Californiacation" seems like a pretty good show, I will definitely watch some more episodes (but I doubt that I will watch it on TV....). I'm shocked - about Madeline Zima's breats. The cute, funny, weird little psycho girl from "The Nanny" (yes, I'm guilty of watching/loving it) plays a maneating bitch in "Californiacation" and well..you see a lot of her ;) Totally wasted on me, instead it destroyed my picture of little "Gracie".
So, if you want to watch some good shows on TV - switch it on on the 29th of september, RTL2. Just the opening credits for Dexter are worth it ;)
Sooo, what else... I have a desk in my room! Finally! His name is "Ingo" and he has 75cm to offer :P (ohh I'm in a silly mood tonight :D )
before I write more silly and nasty things...I'm off to bed...
good night :)
edit - just found this...that made my day/night...Kylie's new video to (imo) one of the best songs on her last album... enjoy :)

I knew it was big...
...but THAT big?
What I'm talking about? A book...well, not just a book. A Comic-book. The new, super-delicious Tori Amos comic book "Comic Book Tattoo". Comics inspired by Tori Amos songs. It sounded like a really interesting idea, so I ordered the softcover version (the hardcover or the deluxe version [which is much more beautiful] is too expensive...) and wow...I have no idea how I should bring this to munich.
But well, it looks really nice...
Anyway, to my personal topic of the moment, of the last 3 months, of the year...my arm! I was at the hospital today, they made an x-ray, took the stitches out and gave me a new cast. Apparently everything's ok... I'm going back to munich today, so I can get back to work tomorrow-finally.
And this will be my first weekend in munich - I'm looking forward to going to Ikea (I NEED A TABLE!) and downtown :)
I'll keep you updated...

Sweet day!
Today was a really nice day...well, it's not over yet :P
In the morning I met one of my best friends - well, that's probably a bit too much to say, because we hardly see each other. Usually we see us 2 times in 6 months, because he's busy and I'm busy... Still, I love spending time with him and whenever we meet we have a great time and never run out of topics to talk about. The same today...we had breakfast in a small bakery, went to the mall afterwards, strolled around at H&M and some other shops, went for a walk and had another drink...It was great to see him again :)
Anyway, on my way home I bought some ingredients for muffins (*yummy*) and after looking for muffin forms for many minutes, I finally managed to ask a shop assistant where I can find them...and she lead me to the rice and noodles section and - Ta-Dah - here they were. Obviously, I usually keep muffin forms next to the rice too... ;P
So I baked muffins...I must say, I liked them better when I did them in Sweden. I don't know, maybe the swedish flour is different...? ;)
However, no plans for today (except eating muffins and watching a DVD). Tomorrow my best friend has his birthday and we will go out..and I'm sure we will have a blast :)
hej då,
