(no subject)
Wow, I haven't posted in ages. I knew it had been a while but then I looked at the date of the last post.... bad, bad me!
I'm dozing off on my couch (I always say "in my couch" because that's how you say it in Swedish, but Tom keeps correcting me because apparently it sounds like I'm sitting inside the couch). We are nearing the end of our thesis work. I've been working with a girl called Malin and we're like polar opposites in some ways, so I'm surprised that it's gone so well. When we started the project I nicknamed her 'Annoying Girl' when talking to Tom because all I knew about her was that she talked really fast, interrupted people and just in general gave off a really chaotic impression. But I don't call her that anymore, that would be mean.
It's been great weather the last few days and today I've been sitting outside in the sun reading. I'm reading the 5th Game of Thrones book. Last episode was pretty fucked up, but I guess we will be getting the red wedding soon? Speaking of TV, they released a video for the last season of Dexter yesterday. LOL at Michael C Hall saying "I think Dexter feels responsible for Deb".... well, like Deb would say: No fucking shit Dexter! How could he not feel responsible, Dexter has messed up her life in so many ways. I'm excited for next season anyway, I hope Deb gets a somewhat happy ending at least.
I've decided to try to take a sabbatical at the end of summer and move to Tom for a year. It might not be a year if I don't get a job, but I'll try for a year anyway. I only got one month left at university which means I need to start getting rid of stuff. Most of my furniture is either second-hand, free or IKEA so it's not worth trying to move anything to Tom's or keep it until I move back. I also need to start eating everything in my fridge and freezer. I want to move as little as possibly to Jenny's flat (where I will stay for the summer). My classmates have started talking about getting graduation dresses and what to wish for as a graduation gift. Feels crazy that I'm finally here, but at the same time, I'm ready for something new and I look forward to going to Tom. Not just because he is there, but because it's new and exciting to live in a different country for a year and try to make it there. I'm feeling pretty positive about it right now, but that might change. My eternal worry is my family; last time I was in England, mum had to go to a hospital again, and dad is getting old and Jenny seems to have so many troubles. Everyone will be fine, I'm sure, but it just feels like I have some sort of responsibility to be around... but at the same time, I can't let my worries hold me back. Things are reasonably good with my family, after all.
I should get started on dinner but I'm so tired!
Hope everyone is doing well!
