Erika's World

You know what! I am almost finished with the Christmas shopping. I only have one present left to buy and then I am all done! Woop woop! I bought presents to all of the kids today, I mea the ones that I had left. That feels good, so now I just have one present left to get. I feel like, when am I going to queeze that in? Hahaha, I do have time, this weekend and I do have a little time next week after work since I only work from 7 AM to 11 AM. I have time on Friday next week but Thursday is all booked for Justin Bieber. Believe Movie . That is going to be so much fun! Before the movie a few of us Swedish Beliebers are going to have a little meet up. It's always fun to meet Beliebers because they are always so nice and welcoming (so are Directioners, but we are talking about Justin now). We are just going to meet up at McDonalds or something and talk and just get to know each other better. Like I am so excited for the movie! Like go Justin, go Beliebers! It's our fucking day! My ...

Do you know what today is? Exactly one year ago to the date I set off on a four month (and four days) long journey which involved college in the US. One year! Fuck! I mean it has been on year! One year ago (um, this post might be dated August 10th 2013, so just to clarify I moved to California August 9th 2012 - it probably will be dated the 10th since I usually blog around midnight) I moved to freaking California in the freaking United States of America! I mean it's so hard to imagine it even though it has happened! I mean I lived a life long dream of mine. There is no better feeling the living your dreams! Even though I had some rough times (and believe me I had) I am so thankful for the opportunity because otherwise I would just be sitting here and thinking "Why?", "What if?" etc. You know? I am so thankful for everything. I have so many other dreams that I want to achieve! I just have to be more driven. I know, or I mean what's stopping me from my other...

So, okay. Tomorrow I should probably get serious with the packing. I have to re-pack my suite case. I packed it full of clothes and stuff last week because my mom moved to an other apartment but yeah, next week it's time for my move. The American riviera, here I come. Mostly I wish I could just buy a bunch of new clothes but I have to be economical. Gosh, hate it? LOFT, H&M, FOREVER21 - do you feel like sponsoring me? LOFT come, as much as I have done for you- I have given you a lot a free press on HIH and H&M, probably 70% of my closet consist of clothes, shoes, accessorizes from your stores, plus I'm Swedish just like you. Come on, help a sister out! Hahah, nah! I like my clothes I don't want to throw them away. I just hate the 50 pound/ 23 kg weight limit. Hmmmm, what to do. I know that I can eliminate all of my winter clothes. I'll be saving lots of space by not packing my winter coats. I'll think that I pack my fall coat, I don't know I might just...

Sitting here in my moms bed and watching a movie on TV. Glory Road , I think it's called. Lot's of familiar faces. That, guy from Sweet Home Alabama , Josh Lucas. Plus some other people that I can't place. Today I helped my mom move. Not far tough, just a different apartment in the same neighborhood. Yeah. I didn't carry much but I unpacked things. I unpacked all of the boxes marked kitchen and put the stuff in the different cabinets. That's basically all I did. your writer, Erika

Hmmm. I really don't know what to do at this point. I am moving to a country I have never been in before and I have nowhere to live. NOWHERE! HEEEEEEELP! Stupid thoughts keep popping into my head that maybe I shouldn't go. First of all, money is really not the issue here but if you want to give me money I won't stop you. Second which is the biggest problem with this whole house thing is that there is nothing vacant. Well, but nothing near my school. Damn! Why doesn't that stupid school have a a freakin' dorm!? Stupid school! Stupid! Yeah, yeah! Any fans out there who wants to help? Pleeeease. your writer, Erika

The apartment is a freaking mess right now! Well, except from my room which is just as tidy as it's ever been. Hahaha. The rest of the apartment well let's just say that there's stuff everywhere. EVERYWHERE! Okay it's just because my mom's moving at the end of the month and because I am moving to Cali (aka California) in August. My mom just wants to sort all of the stuff because there's stuff she doesn't need and want anymore. Yeah, I know I need to practice that tough love on my closets but that will be easier to do when it's time for me to actually start packing. It's gonna be so so so much easier then. It's gonna be like "This I like, this I want, this I wear" and "Sorry but I haven't worn you in a while", then the tears will come. Uuuugh. What do to - that's the question without a question mark. I actually practiced some of that tough love today. I threw away two hoodies. One of them had been a little bit bleache...

Yo, I just wanted to say I am sorry that I haven't blogged since last Thursday. Sorry. I have just been so busy with school and USA stuff. I've told you that I am moving to the United States in August right? I have told you that right? I have to have done that. Well, I am moving to the United States at the end of this summer. Now you know. If you have any questions just comment as usual and I will try my best to answer them. You know the Starbucks lattes that I posted a picture of the last Thursday. Last Saturday I saw another flavor, chocolate mocha. YUM! It taste just like o'boy but with a hit of coffee. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, anyway you should try them. At Hemköp they only cost 19,95 kr and at Pressbyrån they cost 25 kr. your writer, Erika

Can you believe it? That, I, will be moving to the U.S. next year. Next summer because I have to finish high school to start college or university. It's carzy. I really really really hope that I get excepted to any of the schools that I will apply for. Ahhh (I just want to scream, because it's getting closer and closer)!           Linda and I joke about that when she comes to visit me we will go to one of those crazy college parties. We also joke about me becoming head cheerleader and date the football captain and getting his jacket because I am his girlfriend. LOL. When I told Åsa about the cheerleader and football captain thing she said "Oh! That's a bad movie! Been there done that." What she ment by "been there done that" was that is so sterotypical when you thing of americans. Mostly when you think of high school.           Do you have any plans for college? Any plans for after high...
