Liseberg

Sitting outside eating lunch and realizing that I haven't posted anything for ages.. again.. I was going to wait until I had access to a computer but it has been far too long. So here I am sitting in mums friends garden blogging from my phone.
If you follow me on Instagram you would have already seen this photo so I'm sorry it's just hard to upload lots of photos when I'm on my phone.
Okay so on Wednesday mums friends family and my family headed of to a theme park called 'Liseberg' was one of the best days I've had in a long time! Went on all of the scary rides, went in the highest freefall in Europe (147m) high I think it was.. Scary!!


holidays

I'm back! Sorry I haven't posted anything in the last couple of days I've just been so busy! I have been reunited with my family again! Feels so strange to have them around all of the time again but is also so good. On Monday we slept over at one of mums friends houses in Uppsala, yesterday we slept over at a beautiful little ocean town (see pictures down below). Today we will be going to a theme park with loads of scary rides which will be so fun!! We are going with another one of mums friends which we are also sleeping over at her house for two nights. I will keep you guys updated as much as possible!

Skolavslutning

Yesterday was my last day at school, ever in Sweden! It is actually so sad, I never thought that I would actually miss going to school. Well yesterday was a great day, after school a lot of us got together and went into town to buy ice- cream as we all got a voucher. Then we went to Lucas house and relaxed there for a while. Then at night quite a few from the class got together again and we ended up at my house watching the movie ‘ego’, one of my favourite Swedish movies. All in all was pretty much a perfect day, sad to say goodbye to so many amazing people but a great day. Going to miss everyone SOO much! Thanks for an AMAZING year!!!

Today we had our year 9 dinner it was a great night. Everyone looked gorgeous in their summer dresses. It is finally starting to feel like it really is going to end soon. I am so excited to finish and go back to my life in Australia but also very sad because I have to leave so many amazing people over hear behind.

Well I am going to be up nice and early tomorrow (6.00am) because we will be paddling with school and we must be at school at 7.15am, everyone will be walking around like zombies tomorrow, usch.

Yesterday my class (9B) and I went on a trip for a paintball session which was so much fun! Then we all had pizza for lunch and then just sat around and relaxed for a while.

After our paintball day out the whole class then re-grouped at Amina’s house for a BBQ dinner and then a few stayed over and tented in her backyard for the night which turned out to be super cosy.


Ingrid's ball

 
Today my cousin Ingrid had her ball, she looked absolutely gorgeous!

Was such a good day today, first we had sports day at school, then I went into town to buy my dress for the last day of school, then we went to have a look at Ingrid at her ball and then we went out for a great dinner. I’m actually totally exhausted now.

Tomorrow I will also have paintball with the class, then we will have a BBQ dinner and then many from the class will be sleeping in tents for the night which should be cosy.

 

perfect day

 
I’m so sorry that I haven’t been posting in a while. I have just had so much to do and then on top of that I was sick yesterday. I found out yesterday that someone had hacked my email account so I couldn’t even log in to my account and delete it, so annoying because I have no idea what they are doing their either so if you get anything from this account [email protected] it was NOT me.

Anyway enough of that, today was a great day. After school we rode to one of the highest points in town and took photos. Then at about 7.30pm Ella and I went for a 8km power walk which was quite relaxing and good exercise too. Now I’m going to try and get some sleep, super tired so will be updating you guys again soon.

Min resa

Jag ska berätta om min resa till Sverige.

 

Jag kom till Sverige med min mamma, dem två veckorna hon var har vi åkte runt södra Sverige och hälsade på varan familj. Efter det vi kom till Strängnäs, jag hälsade min nya familj for första gången och sen mamma lämnade mig och gick tillbaka till Australien till min pappa och två småbröder (Carl och Ben).

 

Jag kommer ihåg min första dag i skolan, jag har aldrig vart så rädd för ut. Jag kände ingen och kunde inte språket. Men det gick ganska bra för att efter dagen var slut jag hade fyra kompisar. Veckan efter kändes lite bättre men var ändå svårt för jag fattade nästan ingenting när lärarna pratade i klassrummet och jag kunde knappt läsa, någon behövde översätta hela tiden.

 

Jag kommer ihåg den första meningen jag kunde ’jävligt dåligt väder’, Ella, Hanna, Josefine och Celine lade mig det typ första veckan tror jag. Det var en bra första mening för att jag kan använda den nästan varje dag.

 

Jag kommer ihåg den första gången jag såg snö, jag var helt crazy, jag gick, nästan sprang runt och tåg jätte många kort när det var nästan ingen snö alls. När det kom snö på riktigt jag blev jätte glad för att jag aldrig hade sätt så mycket. Efter kanske en månad jag tröttnade på det, det var bara kallt och blött. När snön äntligen började smälta blev det is istället. Det var nästan värre för att jag ramlade hela tiden och det tog jättelång tid att gå.

 

Nu har jag varit i Sverige åtta månade. Jag har gjort jätte många pinsamma grejer i dem har åtta månade men har också ändras som en person. I början skulle jag aldrig ha vågat prata framför en grupp på svenska men har är jag, jag kunde aldrig tänka mig att jag kunde prata flytande svenska eller skriva på svenska. Men jag har inte lärt mig själv bara språket jag har lärt känner mig själv.

          
 

Det har är mitt tal som jag redovisade inför klassen. Jag är riktigt stolt over mig själv för det har. Den var den första svenska grejer som jag har redovisat på svenska och jag fick A! jag vet att det är inta alls perfekt men jag kan bara utvecklas. Var tycker ni om den?

 
 

spex foto

 
I totally forgot to upload a picture of my classes "spex foto". All the year 9s choose a theme and we all get dressed up in that theme, as you can hopefully see our theme was swimming/summer. Can you see me?
 
At the moment I have had loads of homework but by tomorrow it will finally be over because we have our last test and our last bit of homework. next week all of the grades will be set and then week after we only have a three day week, so they're are only 11 more days of actual school left until the summer holidays not including the weekends, can;t actually believe how fasts the year has gone!

today's outfit

 
 
 
 
So sorry for not updating for you guys in so long! I was going to yesterday but I have so much homework at the moment, sorry! But now I have so I hope you guys are happy. I loved my new top that I wore today, was so cute! Thinking of wearing a skirt tomorrow with it if it is warm enough!

In Norway each year on the 17th of May they celebrate their national day, it is a big day and everyone gets dressed up and celebrates over a long weekend.

something new

 
 
 
I thought I would try out some new make up for the summer. I usually wear foundation and then powder but I thought for summer it would be nice to just wear a bit of a heavier powder. Can't wait to try it tomorrow. The brow pencil is the one I always use but I included it in the picture anyway because  I bought it today when I bought the powder.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

day out

 
 
 
 

Sunday night again, why do they creep up on me so quickly? Well at least today was a good day, I went to my uncles house and then his wife, two kids and I went for a drive to this old castle that people lives in back in the 1600s. The estate was so pretty and huge! We also stopped for afternoon tea at a gorgeous horse estate, I had a prawn sandwich which was super yummy.

This week isn’t totally boring though, on Tuesday we are going into Stockholm to a museum I think and then going to the theatre and watching some play which will hopefully be a good day seeing as we start at eight and then don’t finish until four thirty. Then on Friday I won’t be going to school because I will be in Norway celebrating their national day.

Yesterday I went into Stockholm with Ingrid, Emma, Karin and Olle. Ingrid drove most of the way to Stockholm but we ended up catching the last bit by train because Ingrid didn't want to drive all of the way in because of all of the traffic. Once we came in though we had a lovely lunch of sushi and after lunch we started to shop.

Grona Lund

Finally got time to upload the pictures of my trip to Grona Lund, was such a good day! As you can see in the first picture we met Zara Larsson which was pretty cool. For those of you who don’t know who she is she won Sweden’s got talent when she was only ten, she is now 15 and has produced an album which is very popular here in Sweden.

The rides in Grona Lund were so much fun! I think the best one would have to be eclipse, which is 150m high and once you get up that high it spins around and you are able to see the whole of Stockholm, I think it was the tallest of that kind of ride in the world! I could go on about how fun all of the other rides were but we would be here all day!
