Last week I spent 3 days working, 3 days in school and 1 at home writing for school. On top of that I went out 2 nights and had time to work out. I guess sometimes it's easier to get things done when you have too much to do. By the time the week was finished I felt relieved and proud which was the perfect way of ending the week. Now, a new course in school and a storm outside the window. Time to start reading!

Suddenly it's almost the end of the october and like most of the time I'm wondering what happened. Times flies by and somehow it feels like everything is going faster now than it did before.. I keep going to university, studying, working and trying to have a life in between all of that. Yesterday I went to see the musical Rock of Ages, which was really good! After that we had Tapas dinner at a nice restaurante followed by drink at a bar. It was the perfect saturday with no work and no schoolwork, but now it's time to start study again. There is a lot that needs to be done, but somehow it feels like it always is :)

 

After some really warm autumn days we are back to normal and to be honest, it's not so bad. Time flies by as always and I try to keep up with everything. Studying, working, swimming and try to enjoy everything as much as I can. To make sure I don't stress too much I try to focus on relaxing and doing things that has nothing to do with Uni and other important things, and it's always easier said than done. But watching tv series is relaxing nights and a perfect way of taking a break in the middle of all the stress. I really enjoy every free minute I have and realize how I love to learn but don't like to just sit at home reading, writing or studying for a test. That's just not my way of learning.. I loved the studying part in Cádiz, it was never too stressful and I was able to learn a lot! But that's not an option right now, so instead I try to do the best I can with what I'm given and hope it will all be great in the end. 

 

It's almost the end of september and a part of me is wondering what happened. Everything goes so fast nowdays, at least it feels that way! I've had the time to be sick, start university again, finished the first course, going to the cinema a few times and taken care of things that needed to be done. That's basically my september this year. Not that much fun but not horrible either so I really shouldn't complain. Movies has been a big part of this month and I've seen a lot of them and I can't say anything else but this; I love movies!

 

The autumn is definitely here to stay and it gets colder each day. Before we know it it will be winter all over again, just like every year. But before that I'm going to be happy about all the lovely leaves and everything else the autumn brings us.

 

Out with the boat in the summer

 

Here are some photos from the time I've spent at my summer house

 

 

The body said no in the end and all I'm doing is trying to get better. University has started and I just hope all of this goes away soon so that I can put my energy on Uni again. We have the best late summer weather in Stockholm right now and it's such a shame to spend all this time at home in bed, even though that's what I need...

The summer is soon over and I'm sitting here wondering what happened to it. 

 

I spent the first half of it with a loved one abroad and the rest I spent working, home and at the summer house. I've tried to get the perfect mix of it all before going back to university. Unfortunately my body has said no basically half of the summer. With a mix of migraine, feeling sick, tired and sleepy all the time, feel like I have no strenght... Well let's just say I'm a bit exhausted from time to time. I'm sure it will all get better with the time, even though I'm tired of not feeling 100% ok. For now I'm trying to relax and not do too much whenever I get the chance to and I think that's a good decision!

All the lectures, seminars, essays and exams are finally done. This means I'm done with my first semester in university. Feels like I started yesterday. There has been so much to do and it feels great to finally get my summer holiday. School's out for summer!

Here is what was in the goodiebag that I got last week on the event with The Body Shop.

On the event we got the chance to see the movie "Song for Marion", which I think was very good.

 

 

Shower gel and body butter pink grapfruit and pepparmint cooling footlotion.

I've used all of them before and I like each one of them!

Time just runs away, at least it feels like that. Finally there is not much left to do in uni which feels amazing, but absolutely crazy that I soon will be finished with my first semester there, feels like I just started... And in the middle of it all I have had work, dentist appointment, hairdresser, events and a billion other things to do. It's crazy how busy you can be. I think for this summer it's time to start relaxing and not be so busy! Just take the time to do nothing, hang out with friends, just walk around in Stockholm and enjoy the summer. I usually don't have time for that, but I think it will do me good to start take the time to do it. Otherwise the stress will just continue... 

 

 

Sometimes your body just says no and that's what has happened now. The last week I have not been able to do much and the constant pain is there. No fun at all, but there is really nothing I can do about it. So instead of working, getting everything ready for summer, enjoy spring nights in town, I spend most of the time in the sofa or bed waiting for it to get better.. This is really not how I intended to spend the few spring days we have gotten this year! Hopefully it will start to get better soon, I'm keeping my fingers crossed...

Stockholm is beautiful all year round, but after the winter when the spring comes and it's sunny everywhere... It is something special with that time of year! Here are some photos from one of those days when I was in town a couple of weeks ago. It was one of the first "real" spring days this year. 

 

May is here and so is my cold. So annoying to get sick, for the second time so far this year. The weather seems to be pretty good and I have a few days off school and work, so I'd rather be doing something more fun than being home sick. Although, better be sick when you have the time to I guess.. The last weeks have been stressful with deadlines in school, but also nice because of the weather and the free weekend. I spent two nights in a row in a bar with friends and nice music. Now it's time to make this cold go away and when it does, work ahead in school. The more I do now, the more free time I will have later!

Now when the spring seems to be here for real I can't be anything but happy. Even though we've had sunny days for quite some time now and birds that sings in the morning, it has not been warm enough to actually call it spring. Today it's been 13 degrees, sunny and actually nice to be outside! The spring is absolutely amazing :)

 

 

Studying for an exam leaves not so much time for anything else..

This week has been exhausting and I still haven't done everything I have too.. Not enough sleep, that's one thing that has been the same all week.. Out of the six days that has passed this week I've taken a siesta during three of them. The influences from Spain is still in me in many ways, that's for sure!

 

After a day with rain, for the first time since before the one, I long for sun and most of all warmth! Time for the weather to change because we all want spring to be here for real now!
