I'm home
Jag är hemma! Eller jag har snart varit hemma en vecka. Flyget hem gick bra och jag träffade massa trevliga utbytisar på flygplatsen i New York så jag behövde inte döda 5 timmar ensam! Det var knäppt att prata svenska igen. Jag snubblade på orden och kunde inte riktigt prata normalt. Efter några timmar gick det bättre! Och efter några dagar är det som vanligt igen. Men jag drömmer fortfarande på engelska. Mamma ringde och väckte mig imorse och då svarade jag på engelska haha.
Det ändå som är annorlunda här i Sverige är typ att dom håller på att bygga om inne i stan och det är vägarbeten överallt. När jag klev in i mitt hus för första gången på 10,5 månader kändes det som att det var igår jag sist var hemma.. Galet vad tiden går fort!
Jag har inte så mycket mer att säga här på bloggen. Jag är hemma, mitt underbara utbytesår är över. Det var jobbigt att lämna USA, grinade som ett litet barn när jag gick igenom säkerhetskontrollen så snubben som stod där erbjöd mig näsdukar och han sa att jag fick ta så många som jag behövde... hehe.
Jag har med mig många fina minnen tillbaka till Sverige. Jag är glad att jag åkte, detta åt går inte att jämföras med någonting annat. Jag har vänner för livet på andra sidan Atlanten. Jag kommer åka tillbaka, for sure!!! Måste ju hälsa på min Sida (aka Paige). Love you girly! And I miss you buddy...
Jag önskar er som åker till hösten lycka till och försök göra det bästa av ert utbytesår! Ge inte upp när det går tungt, det kommer bli bättre! Det blir inte roligare än vad man gör det till.
Hejdå kära läsare som är sämst på att kommentera, men jag gillar er ändå <3
KEEP ON DREAMING EVEN IF IT BREAKS YOUR HEART
YYAAAAAY SVENSKA NATIONALDAGEN
Hahah älskar alla dessa svenska problem! Så svenska nationaldagen idag, hur firade ni denna dag hemma? Känns som att man inte riktigt firar den i Sverige jämfört med 4th of July här!
I'm gonna go floating with Paige and some other people today. We're going to the Mackinaw river! I don't know how long it will take, I think it took like 7 hours last time they did it. It's currently 18°C but it's only 10.09am soooo it will get warmer! NICE. I only have 7 days left here, in 8 days I'll be in Sweden again. That's just weird and I don't know how to handle it.
Tjena hej
We only have 8 days, 192 hours, 11,520 minutes until Frida leaves us. No matter which way you measure her time that she has left, Frida is going to go back home to Sweden wayyy tooo soon! But I am sure for you Swedes, the time couldn't come sooner!!! But for us Americans, we are trying to savor every last minute that we can. I remember when she hit her half way mark here, and I just thought wow, that's going to suck when she leaves! But here it really is! Time is dwindling down.. Ahhh. :( Although I am super glad the Frida did decide to come live here in America for a year, that decision definitely made Tremont senior year soooo much more enjoyable!! From volleyball to the cruise to track. So many fun times that would never have occurred with out her here! Example, I never would have dreamed last year that I would have been sailing to the Bahamas with some Swedish girl! And it was the most fun thing EVER!
I also wouldn't have done track either! She talked me into that, and I'm so glad I did it because there are so many memories that were made! One thing I also never thought I would be doing is go to Chicago and stay in a hotel with a foreign family who speak Swedish the majority of the time! That was an experience for sure, and very fun to listen to also, even though I had no clue what they were saying, still cool! Also Frida has most definitely cultured us Americans a lot better. If you didn't know... We aren't very smart with what goes on around the world other than what our country is involved in, a also don't learn geography very well in Tremont.. When Frida first came her she asked me where I thought Sweden was... and well let’s just say I was a little off... I said Africa... Ooops! Don't judge. Anywaysssss. I'm sure you Swedes are super excited to get her back home, probably just as excited as we are sad for her to leave us here. However as I stated before, Frida leaves in 8 days, leaving the life that she has created here with her american family and her american friends, and is just going to leave it forever in just 8 short days. She really fit in here and we are going to miss her beyond belief. You Swedes take care of her when she gets back! And I plan to see all of you in 2013. So until then! :)
Love you Fridos. Du ar min svensk!
