Back to reality.
Started my semester today. Just went through all the different courses you could take and I want to take them all! Advanced English, Math and Swedish, Psychology, expanded physical education and health and science step 2. And that's extra outside of the classes I'm already taking. I will see how many extra I can take but I will take as many as I can. I didn't have a long class today so I went for a cup of cofffee with some of my classmates and then went to the skatepark. Really enjoying skateboarding now wich is sort of awesome. Planing on going tomorrow to but maybe it'll rain.. I hope not. Oh well, write ya!

crazy times in Malmö and Ultra Bowl III
had a crazy weekend in malmö with kez and our friend Emma (lakisha). Happened some really crazy shit that I don't even want to write in the blog so here's an edited version.
Friday: Arrived at Malmö at around 7. Went straight to the skatepark and signed up for the competition. Hanged around for some time and went to Malmö festivalen, a one week free festival in Malmö. Got to Lakishas place at around 4 in the morning.
Saturday: We overslept and missed our bus which resulted in us missing out on the contest. We got to park at 1 and watched the freestyle contest and the quarter finals in both masters and pro. It's amzing how good these guys can skate. Really fun to watch! We decided not to go home but to go to our friend Aarons hotelroom. We caught up with some cool germans and hanged out with them. A few ours later I decided to go with them to the after party. I met up with the girls and had a beer (or three), played ping pong and danced. I found out there was a party at the hotel and tried to find Joffa to tell her I was leaving. I ran in to this really coll guy Brian and started talking to him. He was also going to the hotel party but just not yet. I walked back to the hotel at around 2 am and met Kez down in the lobby. We walked up to the party and hanged out for some hours. Me, Lakisha and Kez ended up staying at the hotel, me in Brians room, Kez in Kevin and Steves room and Lakisha in the germans room (I think, haha).
Sunday: Woke up to Brians freakin alarm that he so nicely slept through over and over again. I've decided with Kez the night before that we would meet up for breakfast down in the lobby at around 9. I got down and could see no Kez. I had like 2 percent battery left on my phone and couldn't get ahold of her (and I didn't have Lakishas number, and I still don't I just realized.. hmm gotta fix that) After around 20 minutes she walkes down with a still veery drunk Lakisha. Kez realized she forget her stuff in Kevins room and had to go up and knock on the door to get it. To later realized she'd forget something else and had to knock again. We decided to eat breakfast even though we did'nt actually stayed at the hotel (oops!). It was during breakfast that Lakisha realized she left her camera and cellphone somewhere, but couldn't remeber where. After searching through the hotel for like an hour she called and locked her phone. She thought her things had been stolen. We decided to go and get fixed and get our things at Lakishas place. Lakisha was so upset that she didn't want to go with us. We took a quich shower and grabbed our stuff and went back to the skatepark (just in time to miss the girls street contest, again). The first thing we see when we get to the skatepark is a smiling Lakisha with her camera and cellphone in her hands. Someone had turned them in at the hotel. We watched the insane finals at front row and took the train home at 7. The train broke down so we spent a few extra hours with some skaters that we met the day before that were heading up to Gothenburg. We got to halmstad at 12 and missed the last bus. The guys started skating and we stayed around for a few minutes. Then we tried to walk home but only walked for a few kilometers before we decided to call a cab.
That's a very short version of my crazy wwekend. Pictures from my entire summer will be up soon. Good night!

Nameless Path and The Backing Singer
In little over a month Marcus Foster releases his first album "Nameless Path". Some songs from the album are available for listening on his website www.marcusfostermusic.co.uk. I listened through all of them today and GOSH! can that man make some music. I fell in love with the first one I listened to only to fall more in love with the next. Can't wait for the album to come out!
Another one of my favourite artists, Bobby Long, is about to release an EP called "The Backing Singer", and you can also get two free downloads at his website bobbylong.info.
I know I've mentioned these guys before but you'll probably hear (or read) their names again...and again...and again... and again.. you get my point.

Another day.. I mean week
Where in kungsbacka for a few days with some friends from my USA- trip last year. My friend Anja from norway came down on sunday and stayed until friday. So last thursday me, Anja, Frida and Louise went to Liseberg! It still amazes me how friends can make such a big diffirence in your life! If I would call myself lucky for the increadible friends I have it would be an massive understatement!
After Anja left and Louise had to get back to work me and Frida went down to Halmstad for a few days and when it was time for Frida to go home I decided to follow her up to Gothenburg where I stayed for a few days. I did a quick photoshoot with Marry one night and bought a new jacket but besides that I didn't really get anything done. So this morning I got back to Halmstad again. Lisa picked me up and we drove straight to babysit her moms' friends kids. I got back in town just in time (or a few minutes late actually) for my meeting with Joffa about the girl skate camp where holding next month. Raight after our meeting Lisa called and asked if I wanted to see a movie with her and her boyfriend André. So I came home for about an hour ago so I have just enough time to unpack and then pack again cause tomorrow I'm off to Malmö for Ultra Bowl and Get Set Go!.

Hangin'
My schedule have been really full lately. I love it but sometimes it get a bit tooooo much. I'm right now in Kungsbacka with some really good friends that I met on my trip to america last year. Really nice to see everybody again cause its been almost a year since last time. Here comes an update of what I've been doing lately:
I quit work.
I've teached a few kids how to skate! I got the chance to work at Tall Ship Races and teach out skateboarding with Jeppe, Olle and Kingsley. Had a great time. That same day we prepared for Betongcupen- Holiday Halmstad. Worked at the park 10- 16 and at 16 I started working at Tall Ship Races. I worked there to 18 and went straight to my guard shift at Betongvupen. Me and Nisse stayed up and guarded the tents until Klabbe and Jimmy took over at 24. Kind as he is Nisse drove me home cause the light to my bike were broken and it was dark and raining. The day after was the day off Betongcupen and I started my "shift" at 10. At 12 the contest started and I worked in the café. At around 5 the me and some other girls did a skate demo and I managed to fall and get a crack in my elbow and alot of blood in my joint. So I had to go to the hospital a few hours later but made it back to the after party!
Now I'm as I said in Kungsbacka and playing cards all night! Ooops, my turn to deal! bye!

ps. I will upload photos later this week or the beginning of next week, I promise!
