U2

 

A concert that I give 7 out of 10 stars. They started with It’s a beautiful day, which is one of my favourite songs.

 

 

Kayak and Kangaroo, KK?

 

Well, that was our plan but actually we, (me and Jeanette) took a tandem bicycle in crazy rain and thunder and we looked for kangaroo in almost every restaurant in Manly, we find it on one, but it cost 30 dollars, (210 kr) so we went to Burger Me that should have it. We ordered it and then she said it was only one left, so we had to split that one. Australia, where are all the kangaroo meat? When I came here I thought it was common, that everyone ate it all the time but now I know that’s not the case.

 

We got a chance to take some pics at the kayaks at least

 

Fight for it or maybe give up!?

 

The international college of Manly, pretty powerful building

 

Can I look more like a dork!?

 

Beatiful view at Manly. Maybe it was worth the heavy rain and the thunder after all!?

 

 

 

 

Kangaroo, doesn't look that good huh? I liked it though

 

After cycled in pouring rain

 

A nordic shop. Abba fishballs, Marabou (swedish chocolate) - best chocolate ever. Julmust, (root beer) and so on.

 

 

After rain there is sunshine, isn't that what they say!? It sure was:)

 

Ivy

The plan was to go to a restaurant close to Sydney tour and take a drink but then we met some guys that were dressed up as the cartoons in South Park and a Police, they had been at a work party. They were going to the Ivy so we reconsidered and went there, to the pool area of course. And this time, some of the girls actually danced in the pool.

 

 

Ikea

Me and Jeanette went to Ikea last Saturday. When we went off the train two different people said how we should walk and that we couldn’t miss it. We didn’t either but we could definitely. They said, just walk straight and you will see it but we didn’t see it. Then I wanted to check out a store in a shopping centre and inside there we could see signs to Ikea but non outside. So weird, Ikea was inside a shopping centre, it should be by itself, HELLO!? I bought some Christmas presents to the family and Swedish herring and glogg, (mulled wine) – a Christmas drink with a lot of spices.

 

 

 

Vietnam

Next April I am going to Vietnam with Jeanette, Emelie and Amy. We are going to Hanoi first and then Ho Chi Min. Then we are going to either Kuala Lumpur or Bangkok. Looking forward to it.

 

One more house, thanks Lachlan!

Lachlan Murdoch, the man that owns the house I live in, has bought a little white summerhouse beside our house. So this week a will be able to go there to if I want to. Crazy!

Some information about the man that owns the houses:

Lachlan Keith Murdoch (born September 8, 1971), is the elder son of media mogul, Rupert Murdoch and the former Anna Torv. He resigned from his executive positions at News Corporation on 29 July 2005. However, Lachlan is still on the Board of Directors at NewsCorp and is a company consultant. Subsequently, younger brother James Murdoch is now viewed as his father's heir-apparent by the press. Their sister Elisabeth Murdoch, an able businesswoman in her own right, is married to publicity wizard Matthew Freud. Lachlan is married to Sarah Murdoch. (Wikipedia)

He bought the house I am living in for 23 million dollars, ( 156 miljoner kronor). Crazy!!

 

Some extra photos. Funny ones!

Yeah, my towel went into the pool. That what is happining when u leave the pool in Bellevue Hill, very windy!!

 

 

Wish u were a girl sometimes, haha

Lagar numera sin egen mat





Lamm (typiskt australienskt), pasta med en god sallad och vin. Serverat med krustader. Mamma, jag kan laga mat bara jag vill;)

 

Da har man dragit ut en tand!

Har varit hos tandlakaren och tagit ut en visdomstand. Jag tyckte det var sa roligt nar de satte in bedovning, kandes sa himla konstigt/speciellt sa jag kunde inte sluta skratta. Tandlakaren sa att jag nog var den gladaste patienten han haft, haha. Fast sen var det inte sa roligt, de tog nog upp till 40 min att ta ut den vilket ar valdigt lange, for vissa tar de liksom 5 min. Han trodde aldrig den ville lossna. Sen har de gjort ganska ont. De gjorde stygn ocksa som jag far ta ut nasta vecka. De bloder himla mkt ocksa. Skulle ova med tjejerna pa luciataget men det blev det ju inget med for min del.

 

 

Kollade istallet pa tva filmer. Breakfast at Tiffanys och Simple Plan. Bada tva filmer att rekommendera. Valdigt olika dock. Breakfast at Tiffanys ar en film som fortfarande ar bra trots att den ar fran 1961. En film om en elegant vilsen dam (Audrey Hepburn) som moter en man som far henne att kanna sig mindre vilsen och finna karleken.

A simple plan handlar om hur tre vanliga manniskor hittar 4 miljoner dollar I ett stortat plan och hur langt manniskan kan ga nar det kommer till pengar, dar den som verkar mest mansklig och god turns out to be the most bad guy.

The hours is an other movie that I saw in Melbourne with Henry. It’s a movie that I really want to recommend. It’s a quite complex movie, it takes a time until you understand how it all fits together. This is how IMDB explains the movie: The story of how the novel "Mrs. Dalloway" affects three generations of women, all of whom, in one way or another, have had to deal with suicide in their lives.

I think there is so much more to ad to that though. See it!! Great actors as well. Such as Nicole Kidman and Julianne Moore.

 

U2

Ok, I am going to start writing on English because I want to improve it and I want that people from Australia will be able to read my blog and everyone else who wants to. Google Translate is going to be my best friend from now on. So, tomorrow I am going to see U2. A guy that I met had an extra ticket and asked me if I wanted to join him. U2!? Yes, please! It will probably be awesome. I got inside information from Lynda that have talked to Bonos manager, pretty cool, that Jay-Z is going to play before U2.

Christians Birthday Party

Last Saturday we celebrated Christian turning 3. I have never seen so many presents in my whole life and they had hired a jumping castle that we had in the garden, I did jump on it as well. There were mostly adults at the party though, we drank champagne and ate buffe. There were also a lot of cupcakes, of course. A very American like party.

 

The jumping castle

 

 

 

Christian loves ballons

 

Lucia

Now we girls have singing Christmas songs in the Martin Luther church, the tradition is called Lucia. My host family were there and saw me singing, Christian thought it was funny.

Kvallen som vande

Jag, Emelie och Amy akte in till Darling Harbour for att vi skulle ga till en klubb som heter Home. Amy trodde hon hade glomt sitt leg, (de ar oftast harda med det har), men sa visade det sig att det var Emelie som hade glomt det istallet. Hon kom inte in men vakten var sjukt hjalpsam, fick fribiljetter, och foljde dem till Polisstationen for att forsoka identifiera at thon ar over 18 men det funkade inte. Jag gick in till Home for att mota upp Jeanette och Rachel men forst traffa jag Cecilia och Matt, tva franska kompisar, sa till dem att jag fick fribiljetter sa fixade det till dem ocksa. Sen forsokte jag hitta Rachel och Jeanette men forstod inte alls var de var ngnstans, de sa att de var pa en uteservering men de hade ju ingen dar. Sa efter att ringt och smsat I ungefar en halvtimme sa mottes vi utanfor och det visade sig att det fanns en annan del langre bort som hette likadant, oj, sa galet det kan bli. Dar motte jag ocksa upp Sebastian fran Brisbane. Sedan fixade jag in dem gratis ocksa, (kostade ca. 170 kr /st annars) Sedan kom tydligen Emelie och Amy in och vi traffade nagra skona australienare. Senare skulle jag ta buss hem, ar sa jobbigt och tar lang tid att ta sig hem pa kvallen, men sa stotte jag pa de australienska killarna igen och de betala en taxi hem, nice. Till en borjan en rorig kvall men som blev valdigt speciell och rolig. En kvall som vande helt enkelt.

 

Jeanette, the blue bear and me efter den svenska julmarknaden.

 

Gloggkvall med nagra svenskar

For att fa lite julkansla bestamde vi tjejer for att fixa en mysig gloggkvall. Emelie och Amy hade varit pa Ikea och kopt glogg. Vi ska nog tillbaka dit och kopa sill, mer glogg, prinskorvar, ja, allt for att fixa en svensk julafton. Saklart ska jag fira en aussi Christmas ocksa. Vi traffade tre andra svenska tjejer som kommer fran Kungsbacka, nara Goteborg, gulliga tjejer. Och tva andra killar fran Mariestad tror jag det var. Vi satt vid Bondi Beach och drack var glogg. Jag och Jeanette hade kopt en pepparkaksdeg pa en svensk julmarknad vi var pa men orkade inte gora nagra sa vi hade med oss pepparkaksdeg men gissa om hela blev uppaten, jepp:)

Glogg

 

Kopt en Mountainbike

Antligen har man kopt en cykel, bara cruisa ner till beachen eller junction. Forutom att de tar lite jobbigt uppfor sa underlattar det mkt. Jag kopte cykeln via Gumtree som ar en bra sida dar man kan hitta saker “second hand”. Min cykel ser som ny ut, anvand I en manad. Cykeln + hjalm fick jag for 80 dollar och fick kopa ett las for 23 dollar sa sammanlagt blir det 690 kr, ratt bra kopJ En australiensk dollar ar 6. 84 kr, sa jag brukar multiplicera med 7.

 

A weekend in Melbourne

Fran 1-5 december har jag varit och halsat pa Henry som bor i Melbourne. Melbourne ar en valdig mysig stad med mycket restauranger och caféer, vi at pa en Thairestaurang dar man satt pa golvet och en italiensk. De tar underbart att ata mat fran olika kulturer, Jag vill garna till Melbourne igen, min weekend var underbar.

De sota sparvagnarna som man bara gar pa mitt i gatan.

 

En svensk butik som heter Kikki K i Melbourne. Tycker detta ar sa komiskt, typiskt svenskt. Jag aker till Australien for att komma bort fran allt som ar sa organiserat och planerat. Henry gillar det dock.

 

Shit, typiskt ameriksanskt! fult!

 

Jag o Henry

Ska dra ut en tand, hjalp!!

Kande att jag hade ont I min visdomstand for ungefar tva veckor sedan. Var hos tandlakaren och de sade att jag maste dra ut en tanden. Det kommer kosta ca. 5000 kr och bara 3500 gar pa forsakring. Lite segt men de tar det val vart. Pa torsdag galler det.
