Can you feel it?!?

Alright! After a quick nap I am now back on track. Or, after a quick nap, lots of pizza and some icecream. And some Jackson 5. Anyways!

Since Sweden was extremely crushed by Russia we have all been feeling extremely low, sad... rootless. That's why we haven't been updating lately.

But now! It's better! Happiness!

Sara is back, and she has really landed, she's a part of our lives again. And so is Olof, by now. He made copys of our keys even. And when Sara moves back to Sweden he's going to take her room. Wich is... wierd, in ways, but nice as well. Lots of fun. I'm sad that Sara's leaving but happy that Olof is moving in.

Last night Jojo arrived, with gifts! Candy and fishy things for me and I like her now. Fiiiish. And tomorrow (on Dave's birthday!) Amalie is arriving!!! It's great! We all miss her so.

Work is a bit tough, lots of calls and not very nice ones. We're all feeling a bit stressed out and tired over that.

But hey... Six people living on 22 Vicar for a couple of days. How about that, huh? Then Olof (who doesn't really live here but spends most nights) goes home to Sweden for his vacation. (Home? I didn't mean home. Cork is home. Sweden is gestapocountry.)

Well, all in all, life is pretty good.

You Can't Always Get What You Want

Damn Spain!!!

Ok, so we lost, but that is not a reason to be down. Instead Danne made the bar owner play "När vi gräver guld i USA" and we all sang "who's the man? ZLATAN!!!". We certainly are gracious losers.

Now Danne is making dinner and later we are all going out to show off the gorgeous flags we have painted on out cheeks (:

Btw, I haven't really been a good blogger the last couple of weeks and I'll make sure you are all up to date in a couple of days. But now, drinks!

The joy of being Swedish!

I'm not a football-fan... Well, actually, I think it's rather boring. I have never really watched any games. But, yesterday I did, I watched Sweden - Greece and Sweden won! All of us Swedish people went to Skybar, a pub here in Cork, to watch the game on big screen. Although the field seemed too small and too slippery, at least for the Swedish players, it was nice to watch it! I even wore a blue top over a yellow one, I felt so Swedish!

Today we are all talking about it at work. Carin even brought cupcakes and small Swedish flags with her! So we are happy, and even me, who don't really like football, can feel it. Yay, go Sweden!
