Just came back from Riga. I guess I should have warned some people about that visit, but Ihad no idea what we would do there, because it was my mom's birthday event. As it turned out, we did have time to meet people, but very limited and it's prolly a good thing we didn't. We went on one of those ferry things; night on the ferry, a day in Riga, a ( Read more... )

Day 7: Wednesday
On Wednesday we went to Uppsala.
As you might have heard (or noticed from the previous episodes of The Suhinins), my and dad's favourite pasttime together is to walk a lot. The weather has been quite sunny, so by Wednesday I was pretty red (despite remembering to put on sunblock some of the days) and to keep me from burning more I ( Read more... )

Day 5: Monday
On Monday we went to Saltsjöbaden. It's at seaside and stuff. Really nice. Really beautiful. Really photogenic. Bud dad forgot to bring his 1Gb-memory card with him so we only had space for ten pictures on the camera. He wasn't happy about that, but he was happy about the boat-trip home (we went there by train). The weather was ( Read more... )

Day 4: Sunday
Since I thought dad would love to see my university, I took him there. And then we walked till we stopped. Also, we found a good illustration for "Stockholm is a city of contrasts":

Some of you are probably aware of that my dad was visiting and that's why I've hardly been online this week. He left this morning. I was quite upset, we really had a very good time together. Well, we'll see each other in three years or so (the times before this I've met him were two weeks in 1999 and then one week each in 2002 and 2004). Anyway. He ( Read more... )

You be nice to me, and I'll be nice to you, right? So HJ is nice and I scan him jock fashion and campus specials from '92.

( 9 pages of great looks! Quite big for better readability. )

A couple of weeks ago, we had Sweden day and Stangel and Iggy went to the city, but I worked and had to stay at home, and when I got off I called them, and they were like "we're in Fredhäll, come here". I had no idea where it was, so I followed the istructions, took the bus to someplace, met up wit da men and was all "what the fuck is this place ( Read more... )

There are things you suck in with your mother's milk and they become a part of you. Even if you can accept the opposite standpoint, you can never agree. You just can't understand.
For me, one of those things I really don't get how people can view the moonlanding as The Great Space Exploration Thing. What's the big deal? For me, once you've excaped ( Read more... )

This here is a schoolbook for first-graders called Russian speech in pictures (part 1 of 2). Lots of pictures, I may add. It's from 1990, and I know that I had this book when I was little, but I'm not sure that I had it at school, I think I privately inherited it from an older child. This particular copy was bought in Petersburg this summer.
I'm no ( Read more... )
