Good afternoon Internet family,
I'm sitting at school, JIBS 3rd floor in one of the study rooms, basically bored. I'm not studying for an exam like the other kids in the room are but waiting for my friend, Mike, to end his study session so we can walk around the lake for some exercise (the smaller lake, mjunkshon). The walk is like 5 kilometers, or 3.5 miles, and is great for the little challenge that I've accepted from Sara. Shat challenge you ask? Ready? Here I go: we've challenged each other to loose 5 kilograms in 4 weeks. And if we accomplish our goal then we do something nice or get something nice the other desires. So if she looses the weight then she gets to choose something that she would like me to do for her, whether that be buy her something nice, or give her a nice back rub, whatever. And it's not a competition cause we can both come out of this winners. So walking around the lake has been something that I've been doing to better my chances of getting her to do something that I want. I still haven't come up with anything yet, but I'll think of something good. Suggestions are welcome.
I've also been riding my back for about an hour a day (indoors cause this country still hasn't gotten the idea that spring should be warmer by this time of year) as well as getting into some pilates (I'm not gay, if that' what you're thinking) which really strengthen your core which makes everything in life a little easier, physically, including cycling.
Eating reasonably is the only is the only thing that'll hold me back from the goal. I'm into cooking for myself but I'm finding out that I do that I tend to make more that what I'm supposed to. I always start with the intention of saving the other half for another time, but it never seems to work out that way cause what I make usually turns out really good and I know that if I make it cold it'll never be the same again. Got to eat that stuff in it's prime. I've got to start sharing my meals I think. I was talking to one of my room mates about how I sort of want french toast tonight but then I have to buy a whole loaf of bread, which I don't do very often mostly because I feel obligated to eat all that bread before it goes bad, which is a lot shorter here in Europe then in the United States of America, and so I eat more than I want to. And the work for french toast isn't that much different whether I'm cooking for the whole building or just for myself. But breakfast for dinner sounds amazing right now, right?
I noticed I haven't been putting up any pics in a while and I want to fix that. If I remember to do that stuff tonight it'll happen that soon, but for now let's wish that I was better at contributing to this thing.
Later internet family.

Hello Internet,
No idea when I posted something last so here's a quick update on what's up now: thesis work is going on with Amin, a Moroccan guy, who is assigned as my thesis partner cause JIBS is too cheap to let me write it by myself (probably a good thing, though), I'm dating a very lovely Swedish girl, Sara, with whom I'm madly in love with, and I found out my mother is in the hospital with a blood infection and double pneumonia. I think my mom will be okay though. It was really bad; she almost died cause her oxygen levels were dangerously low. She's been in the hospital since friday (now tuesday) and hopefully she was being released today if some of her test's results turned out the way they are supposed to. These types of disorders usually happen to really old or really young people, or people with cancer or aids or some other immune system bad thing. I found out that she was there yesterday from my brother, greg, while he was driving from SLC to Colorado. A little upset that the news didn't come to me sooner, but I'll live with it.
As you know Easter is coming up soon and I'll be celebrating it with Sara and her family up in Lidkoping. Her dad will be back from Afghanistan with his girlfriend, Suzanne. I'm trying to get Mike to come up with us but he's needing time to decompress so he might not come even though there will not be many people left in this town that know him. It would be a nice relaxing vacation away from people though. And he could walk the lake to his hearts content and hopefully earn back a few belt holes. Which reminds me that I'm on a challenge to loose 5 kgs in 4 weeks. It seems like a lot to me now but I think I may pull through it. Sara and I are doing it together and if we succeed then we both will get one wish fulfilled. I still don't know what I want but it's gonna be good.
I started writing a song today, not sure if it'll go anywhere but I like it so far and the music is just about written. I hope the subject I chose will stick. I need to start writing again. That outlet needs to be re-opened. Too bad my guitar sucks here. This summer I'm trying to stay here in Sweden with Sara and maybe start a life here. If that happens then maybe I'll have my stuff shipped out here, at least my guitars. My other stuff can stay put at moms and dads, like the tv and speakers, although I would really like them here, but there that whole electricity thing that's not compatible. Stooopid voltage change.
That's that update, hopefully it was filling. I'm about to start another episode of weeds after I take my contacts out and brush my teeth.
Good night internet.
