New year, new plans

So now i'm back at schwaigård !!
The journey back took me 25 freaking hours.

But i'm gonna do a short summary from new years eve.
It started with a windy morning where i woke up early, fell back to sleep and then i woke up again to have a chat with my sweet grandma who came to visit. After she left i hurried downtown to meet a friend at a café. Which was very nice cause you know, i don't see my friends very much when i'm in norway.
Then came the evening. I ate a sad dinner all alone cause the rest of my family had vanished. I made myself ready and went to Adam's party. When i got there i noticed that i was the only one, who WASN'T a hardrocker. But somehow i blended in pretty nice anyway. It was really fun! I got to meet old classmates even. and then i managed to share a cab back home, around 5 am. it was like -13 degrees celsius and there i walked home from the main road to my house, in a short skirt and almost nothing to cover my legs. well done Jo.
As always after drinking i woke up really early, after 5 hours to be exact. Januray 1st., no hangover, but i knew what was in front of me. Starting packing for Oslo again. which didn't happen anyway until two hours before leaving. As usual when i am about to leave home for a long time. I'm not like those who start packing two weeks in advance. That doesn't work very well for me anyways! And i'm never done packing until i walk out from the door.
My dad drove me to the bus, and the bus took me to Jörn. The smallest village ever, but the bus still decided to stop out of sight from the train station, so there was three guys in my age, and i, who were completely lost and started our search for the train station. In the -20 degree cold!! We started walking to a crossroad and the bus driver had told us to turn left there. so we did. And somewhere on our walk we saw something on the other side eof the railway that looked just like a train station. So, therefor, we take our bags (one of the guys offered to carrymine cause it was big, and there was a lot if snow) and started to walk across the railroad. Just.. to.. find.. out... that the great building wasn't the train station. Brilliant.
We looked a bit further down the rails and there it was. On the opposite side, the side we just made a big effort to leave, on that side we saw, the train station. I'm still talking about a very small station in a very small village, don't forget that. Anyways, we take our things and we walk to the waiting hall, by now we're freezing toesand buts and ears off, oh, and fingers. So finding the door to the waiting hall actually being open at night was like a hallelujah moment! But then we realized the heat in the waiting hall was non-existant. But it was somewhere above 0 degrees so it was ok. for the first half hour anyway. Our train was delayed 20 minutes, and then 40 minutes, and then one hour, and after more than two and a half hours the train showed up. Just before we were about to give up, or freeze to death.
The after trying to sleep with my head on table, against a window, against my shoulder, against a neck pillow thing, and not succeeding i realized that the train wasn't moving. Were a long way from Sthlm and we were already hours behing schedual. I figured out pretty soon that i was gonna mis my trains that i was going to take after this one in order to get to Oslo, and the same was for a lot o f other people on the train. I started talking to a guy that was sitting close to my seat and he became my company for the rest of the journey. He was also going to Oslo, with two of his friends. We were lucky though that we hadn't taken the train after this one, cause that train was stuck in the middle of nowhere, for six hours , without electricity. lucky them!?
finally we started moving in the enormous speed of 30 km/h for hours. And three hours later that schedualed time, we arrive in sthlm and we get new tickets from sj, plus food tickets that in the end gave me more money than i had payed for the whole trip anyway!

So, i sat at Sthlm Central for 1.5 hour and then i got on the Oslo train, and eventually i even got to the apartment, i was now feeling that i was gonna get myself a cold.
And so true, the cold came, and i haven't been able to sleep until last night. Saturday was torture, i couldn't even move cause my whole body was aching!
Monday afternoon i got a call and somehow i got a job without even trying, but surprisingly enough, at vinmonopolet again.
So now i've been there for two days., my second day is done and i'm in the livingroom waiting for the kladdkaka in the kitchen to get ready. Fanny, our new member, invited guests and is making kladdkaka for the occasion.
Time for me to go now,
see you later!
