A glims.
Mitt intresse för mode växer för varje dag. Det är vårt gemensama sätt att utrycka oss. Men hur vi väljer att utrycka oss genom modet är olika och är vad som gör det intressant. En del av vår personlighet visas alltid genom våra klädval. Med andra ord, uttryck dig genom rätt klädval. Var inte rädd, låt fantasin flöda och var dig själv.
My passion for fashion is growing it self bigger for everyday that passes by. It is a way to express ourselfes that we all share. It is our personality that determains what we wear, and how we choose to express ourselfes. This makes it interesting and I therefor something I encourage everyone to exploir. Don't be afraid, just be yourself and let your imagination help you.
From start till now.
Hej på er!
Som ni har märkt så skriver jag min blogg mestadelens på engelska under detta året. Varför? Två enkla anledningar. Först, för att mina vänner i america skall kunna läsa bloggen, och för det andra för att jag vill försöka hålla mitt språk till engelska så mycket jag kan. Det är ju trots allt för engelskan som jag åkte i första taget. Men nu kände jag att jag behövde en liten svensk samanfattning här, för er som inte riktigt har följt med på vad som hänt under mitt år hitills.

Det är ju trots allt för engelskan som jag åkte i första taget. Men nu kände jag att jag behövde en liten svensk samanfattning här, för er som inte riktigt har följt med på vad som hänt under mitt år hitills.
Jag lämnade sverige den 17 Augusti och flyttade in hos en familj som bodde nära Philadelpia. Jag gick i skolan där och började i volleyboll laget. Jag hade en jättebra tid. Men tyvärr så fungerade inte jag och min familj så bra, så jag var tvungen att byta. Så veckan innan thanksgiving så fick jag ett telefonsamtal från min organisation som sa att de hade en ny familj jag kunde flytta in med. Så jag var tvungen att säga ett sorgset adjö till mina vänner i skolan och tre dagar senare flyttade jag. Många tårar och kramar.
Min nya familj bor lite längre ifrån Philadelphia och lite mer ut på landet. Men så fort jag bott med familjen i ca 2 dagar så visste jag att jag var rätt. De välkomnade mig med öppna armar och helt plötsligt kunde jag andas igen. Men detta innebar också en ny skola. Det kändes till en början lite jobbigt men när första dagen kom, kännde jag mig mer taggad än nervös. Första helgen därpå hade jag en sleepover med några vänner från skolan och sedan dess har allt flutit på underbart.
Så med en liten jobbig start på året, har jag nu en större uppskattning för vad jag har nu. Det var ett wake up call som jag behövde och en situation jag aldrig förr har behövt hantera. Men nu i efterhand är jag tacksam för det, och kan lämna det bakom mig med motivation att fortsätta framåt.
Love you all!

To the mountains.

Monday Morning.
Greeeeeat day today. I was a little bit tired of course, but say a monday when I'm not? Especially not after two nights of sleepovers.
But anyway, I might go to my friends basketball game tonight, it depends if my friend can come and pick me up or not. Keeping my fingers crossed, 'cause I really wanna go to this game. Sense I came home around 3 I've been sitting with some homework for my English class. I have a lot to write and read in that class but it works.

I had a wonderful night last night. Me Sarah and Maddie went to Panera bread and had dinner. It was really good. Then we went to the mall, found some unexpected christmasgifts and some other stuff. We walked by a man who did customised shirts so we decided to buy "Thing 1, thing 2 & Thing 3" shirts. We love them! Haha!
Then we meet up with Moritz and his friend. The rest of the night we spend talking, taking pictures etc. It was so much fun. I haven't laughed that much in forever. I loved it! Today when we woke up I went home and had to sit down with my english homework. But now I'm done so I think I will watch the new episode of glee before I start planning tonight. Kisses!

Bonfire & sleepover.
Friday night we had a bon fire at gunsons house. It was so much fun. We ended up spending more time inside in his basement then around the fire though, but that was ok, 'cause it was really cold outside! But I ate my first smore though! It was really good! It is like grilled marsmellows, crackers and chocolate! I mean, it sounds nice doesn't it?

First week of new school.
This was my first week in my new school. It was great! I totaly love it. The peple is so nice and friendly and I'm starting to adapt to the school. One problem I have though, is that the school is SO big. I'm like a lost puppy between the lessons and have to ask people in the hallway to find my way. Haha!
In about an half an hour my friend is picking me up and we are going to a friends house to have a bon fire. I have tons of layers of clothes now, 'cause i'm afraid it will be very cold. After the bon fire me Katherin and Megan are going home to Megans house for a sleepover. Cozycozy! Talk to you guys tomorrow, and then hopefully with some pictures from the night!
