Mighty long time!
So ....update on life, yeah ?
So i finished school, and decided to take my dad up on his offer for us, which was to take the small family house in Berlin.its a little bit cramped seeing how we were living in Stockholm, but it beats Stockholm rent by a long shot, and our neighborhood is still as cool as it was when i was born, despite the American hipster invasion.
(currently reading)
I brought Prince, AND Buffy. so the 4 of us in one bed is ...
but its comfy.
we're living near kreuzberg,life is fantastisch and my hair is doing what i want it to. wonderful, eh?
But its so weird.
Im really glad i didnt do what 90 percent of people i knew did in our late teens/early twenties, which was charge into some school and end up in debt. BUT
Im at a point where i feel stuck. like i worked my ass off , and now im just back to going out all night, lol. like, i have to get on the good foot!
oh oh , let me show you this
thats across the street.
I feel like my wanderlust has run out for the time being. i want to pay more attention to home, and family and friends, then the kayak website. and both Eino and i have been running around so often ( weird, but he chased Hammarby and i was traveling , LOL) that we didnt design our living space, or anything. in Umea we lived in a small place we didnt care about because we were gonna be out more, in Stockholm, tssh, forget it, but now this is our home-home.
it sucks. i wanted to come to NYC in the summer time, but i think im gonna spend summer just at work, or at the beach drinking with friends, and just slide into my thirties like my fathers family has done for generations;trying to "get brown" on the beach and accidentally starting small fires.
so , i miss this little house.
and it sucks i didnt spend alot of time here, and pretty much bitched about the severe cold, and daylight all hours in the summer, but you know what, its only an hour away.
And my besties. i leaned on them so much, and its so nice to know friends that you love, for years and years.
it seriously got to a point where we were acting alike, and doing the same things at the same time.
it's great oh so great my legs are always hot, but my upper body is always freezing
.
the last drink in Stockholm, @ Vampire lounge.
*sigh*
this is kind of why i dont want to travel so much anymore. 2010 Japan, 2011 Finland/England, USA USA USA, Stuttgart, Stockholm, Umea , etc etc etc, its like, you meet people, and fall in love with places and you cant just easily step out and see them! this is an issue ive had my whole life, but its becoming my brilliant. especially with my east london people. we had amazing nights together and i barely saw them.
and i miss people in NYC. i went for a brief visit AKA packing all my moms stuff AKA too cheap and shy to hire moving men trip, OH and there was shopping, but mostly Cat nearly throwing out her back trying to build shelves.
and i didnt get to see anyone.
like anyone. my jet lag was awful, and there was just not enough time.
but , we're both thinking of taking a trip to cali later this year. so i'll see how it goes. if we go to cali there's no doubt our flight will layover in NYC. so i'll see , i'll see.
so, as for now,
Tschüs!
and dont fly Finnair!
Love,
Cat
