Sorry guys for not writing in this space for a while.
A few things have gotten in the way. I've had an incredibly outrageous load of Uni work to do the last few weeks which I believe I have mentioned. Seminars, Presentations, Oppositions, Debates and Paper all over as of today! In celebration, I am going on my first road trip in Sweden with a couple friends to a place called Sigtuna. It is apparently Sweden's first ever town - founded in the 10th Century. Lucky me! It is only an hour away too. So I will definitely be taking my camera along with me.
Other reasons why I have no been writing include the fact that I have been rather unfortunately, sick, for quite a while and it's not shaking. I blame the "incredibly outrageous load of Uni work" as aforementioned. It has been quite stressful to say the least! Add to that all the other Uni events which are going on and being a general Uppsala University student living in Flogsta who also does not have a kitchen at the moment and you start to get an idea. Or maybe not? Haha well, I intend to try and get a good blog going hopefully sometime this weekend. I have quite a bit on as I will be leaving for London, that's right, LONDON, on Monday - oh you know, just for a class excursion. No biggy.
I hope you guys are all well. Other than this stupid sore throat, blocked nose, and stuffy headache - I am well and healthy. The gym progress is laughable but I am still going and my kitchen is rumoured to be returned to me next week if all goes well! The snow seems to have officially left us as well - and we are now more than half way through the semester! There's only 79 days until Bill comes to meet me here in Europe. I can't wait! And some weeks later, a good lot of my friends will be in Europe too! We are all gonna have such a swell time! Well, that's all for now. But yes, I will try and get a good load of student life photos into the next blog mates =]
Peace out xo

Glad to hear you're alive and well and swell :). Awww that sucks about the cold :(...and the uni work. Its a Saturday morning here and I'm about to go to uni... hopefully I'll only need to be there for half an hour though!
Just wondering what class you get to go on a field trip for!
ps. I love your blog!
There you are! Hope you have a wonderful time in ye olde England, think you'll like it. Your excursion sounds as though it will be brilliant, lucky you! Hope you'll feel much better for it by then, silly interseasonal colds/ flu. Looking forward to the next instalment :)
Well, hey there Ms/Mr? Anonymous! Cheers for commenting mate - I'm glad your enjoying it =] Where abouts are you from?
The field trip is as part of the Media program here in Uppsala and the Uni has organised for us to visit the Reuters TV, BBC network, SBS broadcasting, Guardian Newspaper, and Oxford Institute. It definitely beats the Uni and school excursions back home. So far this current class Image, Identity and New Media has been heaps interesting focusing on gender identity with a guest lecture from a Transgender guy, and a lecture on the power relations in pornography. It's actually really fascinating!
Yeah I hope I get better soon too! Tonight it St Patty's day though and I really wanna go and see the festivities - we never seem to do anything for it back home! Alex - I'll tell ya all about my trip when I'm back mate haha. Rachael, Uni on a Saturday is blasphemy!
