Decorations around the house








 I'm exhausted! These past few days have consisted of cleaning, cooking & decorating...constantly! + not being able to procrastinate thanx to our internet being broken up until yesterday.  I know I've been making loads of christmassy posts...but I've got to take advantage of the time of year, right?

Tomorrow is Christmas eve! Waking up early, opening stockings, great food, games and presents..s'gonna be fabulous! What kind of traditions do you have?

Hope you'll all have an absolutley fenomenal christmas!
XxX

Snooow???

Heeyyy!...heheee.... long time no write, eh?
So, I've been majorly slacking, which maybe you've noticed...I don't really have a super valid explanation, but all in all, I've been really stressed about school and such things and whenever I haven't been working on school, I've pretty much been sleeping. I actually went up to Stockholm last weekend to see a friend, which was a nice change, so I might show you some pics from that :)

Anyway, as I'm waiting for my cousins to arrive for the weekend, I thought I'd grasp the moment and update you. I'm in a really good mood today, thanx to many great things, not even the stress of the christmas shopping that I need to do or the spanish oral exam I have on monday is bringing me down today :)
Here's a little list of the things that make me happy right now:
- It's friday, and I've gotten through a particularly rough week :)
- I have an entire weekend ahead of me!
- I ACED a discussion-exam today in Humanities :D:D The teacher said I was the best in my group (yes, i might be bragging a litttllee, but I honestly always have an incredibly hard time with discussions/debates) 
- My cousins are coming soon :) haven't seen them in quite a long time!
- One of my favourite people in the world is coming home this weekend for christmas! :D
- Sunday, I'm meeting up with some girlfriends, one of which has been of fin england for the past 6 months, so that'll be sooo fun!
- The favourite person mentioned above is coming to stay on tuesday! <3
- Wednesday, I'm having a christmas breakfast with this person + 2 other favourite people!
- CHRISTMASSSSS HOLIDAYYYYSS in like 5 days!
- I'll get my permit for driving reaaal soon! so stoked!

etc etc....So you get it, I'm pleased about quite a lot of things right now! Hope that didn't bore you to death, perhaps it inspires you :) Make your own list about things that please you at the moment :)

On a slightly lesser note, I read something devastating in the newspaper today...something along the lines " Surprisingly mild weather this christmas" which in short terms translates to the probablility of getting snow being very slim! NO SNOW FOR CHRISTMAS?! :( We always get snow here! Can't remember a single christmas that hasn't been white....right now its just raining all the time. So hopefully the weather takes an unexpected turn and gives us some snow, or I'll be pissed (:
Whoever is in charge of the weather up there: You have about 6 days to go!






These are all from november last year...my longing for snow right now is unimaginable.. :(


Anyways, hopefully I'll get better at updating, I have a few ideas for some christmas-y posts :)
'Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la! haha :D

You know you miiisssed me! ;)
