Erika's World

Hi guys. How are you? Nawh, sometimes I just wish that we all could have a virtual hang out. Don't you think that that would be fun. "Meet" people from all over the world. Learn about different cultures from people actually living there. I mean it so much more of a richer experience to actually experience the culture on your own or actually taking to people who are living it. What do you say? Well, maybe when I have a few more readers. It would be kind of lame for just myself sitting talking to myself. Hahaha. That be kind of just a blog, Today I started reading Sophie Kinsella's Mini Shopaholic . I actually bought it before I left for the United States so that I would have something to read on the plane or while I was there. Hahaha, that was a big laugh 'cause tough I thought many times about reading it, but I actually never did. Never even opened the book. I just didn't have time because of school and yeah, school because that took up most of my time. Blah...

I am sitting here trying to get some homework done. As I told you earlier this week, I have finals in Swedish on Friday so I have to (I don't have too but I want to) finich my speech today so that I have enough time to memorize it. If you live in Sweden, have you finished your speech? And which texts or pictures from the booklet did you use? I used The Kite Runner from the booklet and the book Queen of Babble by Meg Cabot (I think I have already told you this). I am going to try to get some more homework done today. I will see how much though because I am going to a friends/ family memeber in the afternoon. We are going to have some coffe and talk about Christmas. Oh, it is not just me and my friend/ family memember, there are other people too. Hehehe. I am not thrilled by what has been decieded about Christmas but I guess it is run by democracy and I have to follow the matter has been decided . Crule. No, I shouldn't be bratty about this. I was ok whit this for the twi ...

Blä, I have finals in Swedish next week. I have to hold a speech for five minutes. Not, two, four or seven minutes but for fibve whole minutes. So that is what I am working on right now. It is hard because I have to refer to either two texts, two pictures or a text and a picture. So far I have chosen Queen of Babble by Meg Cabot. I love that book, it it totally amazing and so is Meg. Awesome writer, she is my favorite! I think I am going to choose The Kite Runner as my second text. We got this booklet with a bunch of articles, lyric quotes, excerpts from books and such and we have to choose a text or a picture illustarting a text from the booklet in our speech. I think that The Kite Runner will fit in my speech. I hope my teacher thinks so too. The finals in Swedish consits of two tests. The speech - which we will have next Friday - and an essay - which we will have in November and on the day of the test we will have five hours two write the essay. Talk about alot of time, hehehe. A...

I started reading another book. Supernova by Maria King. So far so good. I haven't read that much yet. It seems ok from what I have read. I usaully don't read books by Swedish authers, beause the storys take place in Sweden and I am from Sweden so there is nothing new. Unless it's Astrid Lindgren. But her book my parents red to me when I was a kid and I have seen the films so, I got the covered.           I like Meg Cabots books. She is reall is talented. I remember when I had finished a book series that she has written and I was going to read another book by her. At first I got disapointed at her. I was like "No, you have failed!". I continued reading and realised that it was just that first chapter that was kind of boring. I like her books, she's cool. I have subcribed to her youtube channel. Not that she post alot of videos. She did before to promote Airhead: Being Nikki . your writer, Erika

Oh my good weekend. It has been a good weekend. Today I went to this countrys beautiful capital. I got some spices (since it's first in advent next Sunday I need spices for the gingerbread dough that I am going to make and all the other Christmas stuff I am going to bake) and tried on different outfits. I need something new to wear on Christmas eve.           Ok, ok, I got some very beautiful dresses at hom in my closet. It's more fun to wear something new. Oh, if I am going to get a new dress I need new shoes! Life gets better with shopping (sometimes and it depends on who you may ask).           Oooo, I saw Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 1  two days ago (19/11). OMG, I can't wait for part two. I have the book so I am going to read it again (and maybe again after that). My memorey is a little vague of what happens in the book. I remember the whole main thing and stuff but not dea...

So this fall cycle 15 of Americas Next Top Model will air. The finale of cycle 13 aired like two weeks ago.           Top Model always airs the same time as another tv show that I like (this spring it was the new 90210 ). So I am going to watch the the show online from now on. I am going to start tomorrow because I have a book I have to read out.           Queen of Bable In The Big City by Meg Cabot. I love Queen of Bable. I have read the first book and now I am on the second book. I have like 71 pages left and I am going to read out the book tonight (at least I hope so. Other wise I have to do it tomorrow. I love reading so it won't be a problem :).           Remember to check in at http://haveithollywood.blogspot.com/ everyday so you can keep up with your favorite celebs. your writer, Erika

My so called BF has infected me with her cold. I woke with a fever this morning (THANKS ALOT, NOT!). It is gone now so don't worry.           The sad thing (if you don't think about the part of me being sick at the moment) is that I had to stay home all day long while it has been about 73,4 degrees F outside. Yeah, thanks alot!           I didn't just lay in my bed all day. This morning I started on my general science essay. I have also watched a movie, Ella Enchanted with Anne Hathaway.           Anyway I got enjoy the afternoon sun. I sat on the balcony and read a book. The Princess Diaries (BTW it's the first book in the series) by Meg Cabot (she is my favorite author). I am alomost done with it. I think I am going to read out the last few pages tonight. your writer, Erika.

I got four new books today! Three on swedish and one on english. Three books by Meg Cabot. Missing When Lightning Strikes, Teen Idol (on swedish) and The Princess Diaries (on swedish). The other book that I chose is Marley and Me: Life and love with the worlds worst dog by John Grogan (on swedish). I chose one book on english because I need to read more english books to inprove my english. I really do. Not that I am bad or anything (or at leat I don't think so), it is just that there is always room for improvement. I am only sixteen years young (why write old when I am not old, I am young and that is the why I am keeping it) so I got alot to learn. A few people that I know borrow books from the library. I used to do that (have have done it a few times and I have a librarycard). The reason that I don't do it anymore is because I want to have alot of books in my bookshelfs (it isn't callled a bookshelf for no reason you know. It's meant to have books in it. Otherwise it w...

I read out Obsessing Orlando two days ago and today I read out another book. I love reading! This weekend I laid in my bed and read the last few pages of Obsessing Orlando. That is a good book! You should read it if you haven't. By the way it is written by Kassy Taylor. I visited Meg Cabot's (a really good writer) website a minute ago. I didn't knew she had one. I saw it in a one of the Princess Diaries books in a bookstore the other day. She keeps an online diary. When I am finished writing this I am going to read it. She is really cool! I saw a video of her on YouTube once and she quite funny. Visit her website here . your writer, Erika.

So today I bought Zodiac on DVD and I am watching it right now. I just started watching it but it seems good so far. I tell you what I found about it later. Tonight is the finale of Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious here in Sweden. I know which four that will be chosen to be in the group. I know there was going to be three girls and when I saw a video and they were four I didn't understand. But Robin have said that she felt very strongly about Nichole, Chrystina, Tiffanie and Natalie. My favorites are Nicole and Tiffanie. Not that I don't like Chrystina and Natalie is just that Chrystina seems to be hiding behind a wall if you know what I mean (her feelings). Did you see their performance at the MMVAs 2008? It was great, but it's really not my favorite song with them. I like Stupid Shit. It's funny because a while before the show even stared here on Sweden VANKNA med the voice show their video at SPELA eller SPOLA. I can't wait until Tropic Thunder premiers. I am g...
