"Make me come alive, come on and turn me on.
Touch me, save my life and come on and turn me on."

Last summer at "Båten"

The best of friends,
Can change a frown,
Into a smile,
when you feel down.

The best of friends,
Will understand,
Your little trials,
And lend a hand.

The best of friends,
Will always share,
Your secret dreams,
Because they care.

The best of friends,
Worth more than gold,
Give all the love,
A heart can hold.

.
Du e det finaste som finns, det vackraste i världen!

International Love

for those that brings out the best in us...

Nicole by O.P.I

Most amazing nail polish ever... fun and cool colors with the same O.P.I quality!
Try it!
I just bought one seethrough polish with glitter and small red heart.. love it!

You know you're Swedish when...

It is insane how well these things fit in on me, maybe I am not as international as I think I am ;) Proud to be Swede <3

You go seriously sentimental when entering an IKEA store, outside the borders of Sweden. Kind of want them to implement free things or at least discounts for Swedish passport holders. Going to send an e-mail to Ingvar ASAP.

Whenever discussing international problems you always, without exception state that “why don’t you do it like we do it in Sweden?” Hahaha flashbacks of Amanda in facilities class discussing environmental issues. "In Sweden..:"

You have serious difficulties crossing the street when there is a red light. Even when there are no cars. Ehm so what?

You get guilty conscience from throwing things in the dustbin that could have been recycled. Haha, I am still bitching about the lame recycle efforts the Americans do"

You take your shoes off when entering a house. It is called good manners.

You find the ads for Coca Cola during Christmas completely useless since no one would consider drinking any other soft drink than “julmust” during Christmas anyway.

Making fun of Norway is a national institution. And vise versa.

You are obsessed with health issues. Everything is bad unless it comes from Sweden, in which case its ok.

You find it normal to have to go to a special store that is owned by the government, that’s only open during daytime to buy a bottle of wine, or other alcoholic beverages. Glad to be out of Sweden on this point, the gas station works for me.

You split the check by the exact penny after eating at a restaurant. Hahaha true, but working on it!

You thought wall-to-wall carpets were a concept of the past or the ferries to Finland/Estonia/Germany/Denmark. Then you went abroad and realised that you were wrong.

You find the idea of wall-to-wall carpets in bathrooms and toilets simply appalling.

You consider Sweden the best place on earth and that Swedes are the most intelligent and beautiful people in the world. TRUE!

You have been accused of being from Switzerland. Repeatedly. OMG so many times and it doesn't get better by: Yes I am Swedish but I went to University in Switzerland! People outisde of Europe can not process this kind of information.

You just love singing “snapsvisor” while drinking any kind of alcohol.

You would never use public transportation without a valid ticket.

You generally consider the pre-party better than the night out in a club that follows.

You look forward all year for August when you get to gather your friends, put on stupid paper hats, drink vodka, sing and eat crayfish. Oooh you lovely Crayfish-parties!

You always go “That’s not REAL snow” whenever it snows in countries that usually don’t get snow.

It’s raining and you hear yourself say your grandmother’s wise words, “There is no bad weather, just bad clothes”

You constantly have to point out that not EVERYONE in Sweden is blonde, in fact you add that most people are not.

IKEA is home away from home.

You find it OBVIOUS that a mile is 10 kilometers.

You consider it tradition to get wasted and dance around a giant penis symbol stuck in the ground every summer. Can't wait!

You go to the downtown during a Sunday and don’t expect to meet a single soul during a 30-minute walk.

You think its completely normal to at least have studied one year of German, one year of French and one year of Spanish. Ser Gutt Ja, Si claro, Oui!

You know almost every other country in the world as well as most capital cities, or have at least studied this for a Geography test.

Every time you see a Swedish brand/actor/company/phone/car/furniture store you feel compelled to point that out to your friends (with badly hidden pride in your voice). I can honestly say that I feel genuine pride everytime i spot a Volvo in Aspen!

You find teenage mums shocking and very strange; because you don’t know anyone who had a child before 25, and you thought that was young.

Lösgodis (pick ‘n’ mix) becomes more desirable than cigarettes.

Your parents pay you every month for not eat candy for a year (or so). Good times, good times.

You in pure disgust try to tell your fellow peers that it’s basic human behavior to shower after PE and they look at you like you come from a different planet.

People say your name in fifty different ways, but no one can get it right. Story of my life. Theresa, theresa, theresa.. How hard can it be: THERESE!!!

You just love to ‘fika’, and know that it is an activity that is meant to last for hours and is not the equivalent of going for a coffee. Wouldn't mind a good "fika" right now.

You instinctively spot ‘Swedes’ from a distance just based on looks and what they’re wearing.

You think going to the pub for a drink is a waste of time if you’re not going to get drunk. HAHA

You have absolutely no idea what is meant by” Swedish massage” that keeps being advertised as a hot item in spas all over the world. ???

You’re not in Sweden you miss the hotdog stands where you can get a hotdog with shrimp salad when you have been out partying!

You celebrate Easter and Christmas a day before most other countries.

Easter means decorating some twigs in a vase with colored feathers, eating herring and painted eggs, and of course, dressing up as a witch and knocking on random neighbors’ doors in hope of getting some candy.

You feel bad if you’re not outside on a sunny day.

You find it completely normal, when going to a pre-party (förfest) everyone has their Systembolaget-kasse in the fridge and notoriously keep track of which liquor is their liquor!

*Story of our life... once again Facilities was my lowest grade through all 3 years at Les Roches, just saying. ;)
.
"IM SORRY DID YOU JUST......
SNEEZE-PUKE?!?!?!?!?!?! 
HAHAHA ♥"
*HAHAHA, OH my god.. the most amazing memory from Barcelona. Can still see Kevin's face when he got sneeze-puked on.
Kevin: What the fuck I got puke on my 300 euro shoes.
David: Kevin relax, they are 250 the most...
.
hahaha
.
"GO GO GO GO TESSICA!

Memories

I love how listening to certain songs bring back the most amazing memories...
.
Rihanna - California King Bed
Those late nights in Belgian Café at Intercontinental Doha with Tarigh.
Chest to chest



Nose to nose



Palm to palm... we were always just that strong.
.
Miss you T-Dog, love T-Rex!

Nightmares

Can't seem to shake this nightmare I had last week.
I litterally woke up because I was crying, don't know if it was the fever that brought it on me or just depressed homesickness.
I dreamt that my parents got divorced, like a really nasty one, they were not speaking to each other and I had to go home to try to solve everything and devide their things.
And the worst thing of all was that my dad met this new woman that was truly a witch, no like the nastiest person ever.
As I said, woke up crying I was so devestated. Told my mum the next morning and she replied with a laugh.. great comfort, thanks mum!
.
Fredriksson-Tarring klan at my high school graduation.. yes in 2007.. I am getting old

Skiing Highlands

I haven't been skiing for a week now and I already miss it. I am working 6 day weeks at the moment due to high occupancy and very important guests in house.
Can't get enough of hanging out with Brittany, such an awesome girl!
Last time we went skiing we went to Highlands, a great mix of blues and blacks and just amazing weather.

Britt happy in the lift

At least I like to think so ;)

Exited but nervous

St. Patrick's day - 2012

Started of with an insane day at work, l had a feeling just walking into work that something wasn't right and from there it went straight downhill.
.
3.30 pm I ran out of the hotel with my GAP bag, filled with my green towels and bathing suite, and went over to Hunter Creek for a great afternoon in the hot tubs with Britt, Matt and Brendan.
A couple of beers and 3 hours in the sun... We were ready to Party!
.
.
The night started of at Brad's house with way too many Lime Jello shots...
.
And it went pretty much downhill from there:
.
.
.
Enough said, another great St. Patrick's day.

Fresh powder to Aspen

Woke up to a couple of inches of fresh powder snow.. it was about time.
We haven't had any snow in the last couple of weeks, even my "hill of death" that I have to walk/slide down to get to the bus has cleared out from all snow and ice and is now walkable :O Who would have seen that coming in the middle of March?
.
Any who, yeasterday was my St.Patrick's hungover day and is it just me or do you feel so much better when you wake up on these days and it is either raining or snowing? A sunny hungover day is just not manachable for me if I am not ON a beach or on a vaccation where I know that it is exeptable to have your first cocktail at 10 am.
So I spent all yesterday in bed until 4.00 pm and then had a nice shower, got some sushi and breakfast items and then back to bed. :P. haha.
Watched The Iron Lady, which was great, and then a good season of Big Bang Theory.
Slept like a baby!
.
Today I start my two overnights, hmm either skiing och Breakfast in America with Brittany... WAKE UP BRITT! ;)

Booked my Flights to Europe

The amount of stress that left my body last night after I booked my tickets to Europe is undescribable.
I had been  waiting for my money to get transfered from my Swedish account to my American one for 5 days and I was completely freaked out. I called my mum and made her call up my Swedish bank and everything, felt kind of like a drama queen when I saw that I received the money that same night :P woops.
.
However, the 16th of May I am leaving Aspen for 5 amazing days in Barcelona.
i have already made reservations at Hotel Arts for a little surprise for my parents, connections is the new black. It is ûber ezpensive but I hope my parents will appreciate it.
We are going to stay in a hotel close to Diagonal Mar, not a favorite of mine but high season starts and it is impossible to get any discounted rates in town at this time.
I CAN'T WAIT for Barca, hmm where do I need to go?
- CDLC
- Rosa Negra
- SUTTON
- Opium
- Shoko
- Cal Pep
and shopping oh you belowed shopping...

Timbuktu - Kom och håll om mig

Du var den jag ständigt vill stå bredvid,

Du grep mitt hjärta som en polygrip,

Vi flög iväg som en projektil..."
