i love skype

May 01, 2007 01:57

I need a plane - and no school. I miss someone. Just about 6 more weeks...that's not so bad.

It's weird, ya know? Probably not. I apologize for the vagueness....but not really.

Seriously, Skype is the greatest invention ever.

As I was perusing the web for international internships, I came acoss this fascinating blog today entitled 'My Life in Stockholm'. It was purely by chance, but I became so captivated by this woman's story. She fell in love with a Swede,  married him, got pregnant, moved to Sweden, got divorced. And now she can't return to the United States because she would lose custody over her son. She decided to make the best of her situation and try to rise above the culture barrier...not knowing a single person or the language. She made a very successful life in Sweden by starting her own business. She writes about her experiences living there in this blog....I'm hooked! I feel like I AM this woman. It's so bizarre. I can see something like that happening to me - minus the total shit part about marrying a douche and being stuck in a country so I wouldn't lose my child. I'm just going to have to rewrite the story a bit.

I'll be home in three days. It's about fucking time. I need a good break to forget about 2 exams that I failed, well, atleast one that I know I failed....And then, it will be time for more school. God bless PJC. And then off to Spain. It's going to one hell of a busy summer. I don't know if I really want to go to Spain that much anymore. I mean, I do, who wouldn't want to go to Spain, but I would rather almost just do my own thing. I need my backback and the wind to guide me on the open road - god last summer was so fun.

And I need a job to pay for my expensive habits.  And to buy a camera. I reeaaaaaally want a Nikon or some uber expensive one. One of the things in life that is most important to me is memories.  I have some beautiful photographs from my camera.  But I want something that will be able to capture the emotion of the place and of the people. That to me is the most important part.  I want to be able to capture all the incredible and life changing memories that I have had in the past 20 years so that when I am old and decrepid I will be able to look back and think...Damn, what an adventure.
