Tonight is the Last Stockholms Club!

This is just gonna be a quickie! Lol. The plan is that tomorrow I'm going to be taking it quite quite easy and hopefully will be able to crank out another one. I just finished having a very big pot luck style brunch in my kitchen with 8 friends which made for a crowded but very festive breakfast of anything and everything you can imagine. Delicious! Here is a photo of us about to gorge on delicious food! Also be impressed. Seriously, this photo was taken like only 2 hours ago and I've already uploaded it on a blog for you. Dedication or what?

I'm about to go take a little nap before what should be a pretty memorable night. It is the last Stockholm Nation's club and I'm 85% sure, the last Nation's club as Uni ends officially tomorrow. I love Stockholms Nation's Thursday Night Club. It's by far the best one in my opinion. Others prefer Varmlands and partying in the library which is also great. But Stockholm's is just so awesome. I have had a lot of awesome memories there. It also helps that I'm a Stockholm's member and so can get in for free even after 9pm! That probably really makes up for a lot of why I like this club more come to think of it... hahaha I'm such a cheap skate! 

Anyway - We plan to celebrate this by, of course, gracing the club with our presence as well as coming back to my place afterwards for a slumber party/pyjama party to ridiculous hours of the morning. Not sure if it will work out. We seem to get so tired by midnight here! This is because here, clubs open from something like 7pm and you have to get there early or risk waiting in a 2 hour or so queue or never getting in. Still, I'm hoping this nap will give me the endurance to keep going!

With less than 2 weeks left in Sweden - I'm trying my best to really live it up and just appreciate everything this wonderful place has to offer! And boy, I feel so lucky to have been able to do my exchange here. Uppsala is definitely a special place like no other! I'm going to miss it a lot.... the life we live here is fairly surreal to say the least. It's so safe (as we only hang out in the Nations) and yet so ridiculous at the same time! (Because the Nations are pretty crazy). Here are a few happy snaps people took which I stole of Facebook and thought I'd share with ya!

Well anyway, that's all for now. Time for a power nap!

Quick Peak of May

The end of my exchange is approaching and not surprisingly, time seems to be speeding up. Between some pretty ridiculous amount of Uni work and some pretty ridiculous nights of clubbing - we've been doing everything we can to spend as much time with each other out and about, pigging out on food, in the sun soaking up some much needed Vitamin D and watching sunsets and sunrises consecutively seeing as the sun at the moment goes down at 10:30 at night and rises around 3 in the morning. As I write this right now, I'm looking out the window at groups and groups of scantily-clad people lounging around on blankets on the grass tanning themselves. Walking around Flogsta, you can see people sun-baking everywhere and people with their windows open sitting on their desks with their legs out the window. It's a pretty amazing sight! The sun right now is definitely loved, here in Uppsala. So what kinda stuff have I been up to? Well - I have been riding my bike everywhere this month - which is tiring but quite rewarding at the same time!

There's been hang outs on the roof of our lovely Flogsta buildings watching the sunrise

BBQ and nachos on the roof, best time!

I'm a bit scared of heights, actually..

The Flogsta Sitcom Shot... totally unplanned might I add

Oooh yes! Portable flammable BBQs

There's been nights out at nations for events such as Open Mic Night and Katushka (Gypsy Punk Music and Russian Folk Techno music - AMAZING)

Ridiculous bike rides home with multiple people on a bike

The road home to Flogsta

Days where we sit by the river along with pretty much every other person who lives in Uppsala

That's a golden man which you sit on. So random!

We've had a trip to IKEA where I bought some much needed curtains and ate some much needed meatballs! (so cheap too! 17kr which is like $2.50)

I've also worked at Snerikes nation a few times working with Californians making the biggest American brunch buffet you can imagine and was rewarded for working with a big thank you party where we dressed up with a LMFAO theme!

The Helgfika Crew who run the brunch!

I was dressed as the shufflebot from LMFAO - complete with a box which I wore out clubbing which caused quite a scene hahaha really funny! Especially when "Party Rock" came on!

Us at work

I went for a walk with some of my corridor mates and Manon to look for the Oxes which live behind Flogsta. Sweden in Spring is so beautiful!!! I can't believe all of this is some 10 minutes walk from where I live.

Can you get any more Swedish than this?

Flowers!

Reminds me of Wizard of Oz

I had a really awesome dinner party with some mates! We made a damn good Indian Korma.

Last night, we went on an International Pub Crawl which ended up being a bit of a flop but we ended up making our own pub crawl which was awesome fun! We took it easy, and made 6 nation pubs that night! Not too bad! But my corridor mate, Tommi managed to make all 13 nations, something he had been trying to do since forever - so KUDOS to him hahaha.

Would love to repeat this photo with people we ACTUALLY know...

Lol I'll leave it to your imagination as to why we are laughing so hard!

Kalmar Nation

Gothenburg Nation

Snerikes Nation

V-Dala Nation

Self-timer focused on the most important thing - THE SKY!

Upplands Nation

Pretending to pose in a manly manner....

Other than that, a lot of cloud watching which is always nice - clouds seem so much nicer here than back home.

Yeah yeah... I think Europe has turned me into a Pantheistic Hippy! You know you love clouds too!

Alright, so sorry for the lack of blogging lately. Truth is, I've been spending days upon days working on my final assessment which I just handed in! I haven't had any time to write and also, with only a little bit of time left in Sweden - trying to use every spare second to soak it in! In fact, I'm finishing this now to go outside and sit in the sun with everyone else! Boy, my life is hard, isn't it?

Also - if you guys wanna arrange a Skype date sometime that would be so cool! I'll probably be much more outa contact once I start my epic trip around Europe and I am kinda pining to hear from everyone. Yeah! Miss you all and thanks for reading :D:D:D:D
