15. 16. 17. and 18. December

It seems to be so that with exams two Fridays in a row, the Christmas calendar have to wait on the sideline.

Well, here is my four days in a bunch.
Thursday 15. december.
Salary! Gift shopping! Gift planning! Haircut! Alas, there has to be limits of the time spent to this, as there is an exam the next day. But I got to go to Toys r'us and the hairdresser, where I got the longest head massage in ages. Everyone should have one of these around christmas time. No picture of the hairdo yet.

Friday 16. December.
Exam! Plenty of writing, a zumba lesson and plenty of writing more. I hope I get a good grade, because this I felt good about delivering. A whole lot of good came out from taking that 15 credits course in anatomy and physiology last spring. This exam today was mainly about the human digestive and endocrine system, with the angle towards nutrients.


Saturday 17. December.
We go celebrate Mattis birthday. I learn again that I suck at pool, and that Janne is expert. A fun evening where we actually danced to mid- ninety's hits in a bar. OMG.

Sunday 18. December.
Gift wrapping, gift delivering and receiving. The cat helped again this year of course. I have pondered about next weeks travel, and mused about how the weather will be.... I really hope the wind is quiet when we are on the boat....

welcome spring

Yes I know it was snowing today, and yes I know its still slippery and cold outside... its just... its about time this winter lets go. King Winter, would you so kindly take mr snow and miss ice with you, and go to the place santa claus goes to for the summer-half of the year!
And I haven't even been the one to complain about the minus 25 degrees freaky cold for lengths of time, or the piles and tonnes of snow... not even the darkness of winter time has been a big complaining topic of mine this time around. But now its enough. I want to get that feeling that I have tried to create in my hallway (the picture), and your coldness majesty can't be part of it, sorry.

Oh and by the way, grats to me for feeling very satisfied with my Basic medicine: anatomy and physiology Exam/mid term.

so many ideas, so little time

I have had so much stuff on my plate lately, with two distance studies and a 6hr day job. And ofcourse; the mandatory autumn/early winter flu. All of the ideas I have had while sweating over the schoolbooks, drowzing at the couch with fever and aching muscles....

I have been so inspired lately by this genious lady, that the sewingmachine is yelling at me from the corner.

But now!
Flu is over, two mid-terms is done, and a weekly spendage of atleast 2 hours of train-time(back and forth to my new course/study), gives plenty of time. Whay more than last couple of months. I can knit on my armwarmers/jacket details, read some of the little bit more ficiton related litterature, draw up new stuff to (dream about to one day) sew, rewrite my messy lecture notes....Train is fantastic.

And the days when Im not travelling to another municipality to attend classes, I can make the bigger stuff, the patterns and experiment with making stuff like that doo-dad on the right(made by Tim Holtz, Ranger inks which by the way, has a line of products that would be appreciated under the christmas tree, please tell santa if you see him!), or spend quality time with my lovley boyfriend!

And workout sessions! hiphei! I can regulary attend again!
