New year, new power
New years eve, after work, got crazy - my little body drank big volumes alcohol after a very nice dinner á la Sara and Andrea.Thanks cuties! At midnight we enjoyed a bottle of nice champagne and celebrated.
It might be that some things hmm or maybe person will make the year even better, but who knows, are You my dear prince? ;)
Enjoy a new fresh year - a new chance for everyone!

2008
This year has been one of the years which will always be special. Most of it I spent in the States with my dear host family, Danny and all my wonderful friends I got to know. I flew from one place to another in LA, in Orange county with Hanna, Evelina, Danny and everybody else down there. I visited places in California such as a roadtrip with my family when they visited me, a roadtrip to Death valley with three German girls, weekend trips for example the ones with Annika who also came and visited me and I went to Tijuana in Mexico with Tammy - where I met Ruben I'm still in touch with :) I met Francisco, the Venezuelan guy I worked with summer of 2006 (visited me on his way to Hawaii). I went to Hawaii on my own and the biggest trip was allaround the states with Linn on trains. Lifetime memories.
I started to list people I got to know this year but just realized that would be a whole essay with I guess at lest 150 persons. I can't understand that it got to be so many and I can't get they all really got to be important somehow. I've never been soo social with so many different kind of people in so different ages and occupations. I thought 50 persons from different countries was once in a lifetime but I was wrong I got even more people to think of.
Like that wasn't enough I'm now working on a hotel where there's also so much people, life is a real puzzle and I learn more and more every single day and now I almost forgot I went to University and meet even more new people there and increased my knowledge in several ways.
I love my life and the only thing important for the year of 2009 will be to get in to medical school. Prioritary # 1! I have to do it, I will do it and I can do it. It's worth blood, sweat and tears. I want it and I love to prepare for it :) I want my dream to come true!

Ohh I just want everything to be over. At least I can look forward for Saturday night when I will work at the restaurant..
Stressed out
Peace.
RIP my childhood friend's dad who died recently.
Almost like holiday
Tomorrow I'm back again. On The Island. After spending time with my family, working out, studying, resting and celebrating my grandma's 70th birthday it feels really nice to go there again.
BTW check out my FB pix!
School's almost over :)
..and then the exams - hope I will stay motivated so I can do a great job ;) !
At work, on holiday?
I'm off.
What should I do? Friday night. Hmm study? Drink on my own? Go to the bar? Watch a movie on my own? Make some international calls? Get annoyed cause Internet's not working? Sleep?
All of the above?
Help me by voting lol or actually - call me and help me out
Speeded
Someone might have got me on drugs cause I'm soo "high". I'm totally happy, smiling and laughing all the time. I mean I'm that kind of happy person but at the moment I feel crazy. LOL
Weii
Rumors
At least I'm having fun - I just hope all theese people are not too sensitive and get hurt cause I'm not taking a very lot seriously.
RIP Rudolf (Rudolph) aka "Rullebulle", "Ruttu", "Ior"
Time of passing away was 12.23 PM
With Love,
Your sis' Sophia
Weekend off=good times at Sandhamn
No work Sat-Mon. To fully enjoy it I had Annika's company on THE Island where we eat a nice lunch, had a movie afternoon, an evening at the relax department and then a pretty fancy dinner in the "Sailor restaurant". The evening continued with some alcohol in the bar together with the staff. So much fun!
The next day we had some breakfast with the beautiful view of the archipelago, went out for a walk and then went onboard the taxi boat back to "real" land.
Afternoon wasn't the same successful, went for a Father's day "fika" to my grandparents but it ended up in arguing and when we at last came home we realized our dog is to pass out. More than ten years having him around is a long long time. Thinking of not having him around when eating breakfast, coming home to an empty house and to not need to vacum each day will remind us of him. All the time. Especially that I will never be going out for a walk around the neighborhood with him as company. Tears fell down realizing what this decision meant.
Happy memories
I miss my host family too bad we haven't been in touch :( and then there are soo many other people and places I wish I would not need to be so far away from.
I'm thinking of all of you, and I will be back there one day
Sandhamn
I'm working for Seglarhotellet på Sandhamn (The sailor hotel on Sandhamn, Sand=Sand, hamn=harbor) by doing laundry, standing in the poolbar, doing some house keeping and jouring. I also prepare conferences and do other errands needed to be done. Cause the island is pretty far out in Stockholms archipelago I also live here in a part of a pretty nice typically Swedish-like house together with some fun chicks. After a successful conference with all of the hotel staff I really enjoy this place and will probably stay here until I get in to med school in Helsinki :) Next summer here will be really crazy since "Volvo Ocean Race" will get here.
Besides working here I also study Finnish as told til' December which is going well :) soon it's over though.
Take care all of you
Back in business
LOL, guess I've been pretty much off from here. Hope I didn't worry anyone. Should kick-start myself here. I mean I love writing :) Is there anything you want me to write about? Maybe I could randomly bring up some cities I visited during my all-around the States trip. I had such a great experience with my dear Linn. They all had something special and we went through some really crazy things you usually don't do :) Or what do you readers think? Or maybe I've lost you all :(
I will make sure you all come back to me! ;)
Here's a picture from when I was in Chicago - my absolute favorite city of them all.
Washington
Our visit at Camp Allen was surprisingly fun - haha crazy soo cool and we got a lot of new contacts to our network. LOL we are crazy and Camp Allen rules right now!
Soon I'm home!
Ps. It's Linn's b-day today so you gotta send her some congratulations on http://thetraintrip.blogg.se
In Boston
Tonight Linn and I are heading Camp Allen, so exciting to see everything from another perpective and from there we're going to Washington DC to celebrate Linn's birthday and then after that to the Hurricane affected Florida, hope we will be alright - an earthquake is enough!
I've been shopping a little bit lately, a nice jacket a la Michael Kors, a pair of rainboots, some stuff for mum and a clutch :)
All people write to me :) I wanna know what you're doing!
I miss a lot of people a lot right now...! Especially you honey and my birthday today sister! Happy birthday!
Hi guys!
However I'm in NYC right now having a great time with mostly shopping, Niagara falls was soo cool and we got some twins who invited us to their suite in a nice hotel and give drinks and stuff..we declined though. Chicago is an amazing city - so beautiful and with a fast pace I like. Seattle the other hand was a calm safe city and since we didn't find a place to stay we found a 24/7 Subway where we overtired had a fun night, Sacramento is so cute and so small for being a capital, San Francisco was a great experience but not my favorite when it comes to weather and city..and Santa Barbara such a vacation resort...and the train trips has been beautiful
