Why don't you and I?

Eng:
Oooh! I listen to this song when I was 11, it was my favorite song, and I have remembered the lyrics ever since, though I had no idea it was the singer from Nickelback who sang it back then. So the first song with him I ever heard was this one. And I always thought it was "How you remind me", but it wasn't.

Sve:
Oooh! Jag lyssnade på den här låten när jag var 11, det var min favorit sång, och jag kommer fortfarande ihåg texten till den. Jag hade dock ingen aning om att det var sångaren från Nickelback som sjöng. Så tydligen är det är den första låten jag hörde med honom. Jag har alltid trott att "How you remind me" var den första, men tydligen inte.

Movie - The Hunger Games



Today I just needed to do something cause David left,
And I have really waited for the right opportunity to go and see this film.

So I went to Odeon West End.

I really enjoyed this film and I can really recommend it even If you haven't read the book.
But the book's, as I wrote before, is awesome!

It is about the Future. In the Future the "world" is divided into 12 districts, and all of them are quite poor except the Capital.
The main Character Katniss lives in district 12 with her mum and little sister. She lost her dad in a mining accident and after that she became the head of the family.
And every year, just to remind the districts about the past, every year they have a reality show that airs 24h a day.
The show is called The Hunger Games, one girl and one boy from all the districts ,except from the Capital, is selected / forced to join. Then they are taken to an Arena were they are going to kill each other until one finalist are left.
Katniss little sister gets selected and Katniss Volunteers..

The rest is for me to know and for you to find out ;)

My Curse, My gift. The Hunger games.

Some moths ago when I was still unemployed in Sweden my sister suggested that I should read The Hunger Games but I though she talked a little bit too much about that book that I was afraid she was blowing it out of proportion.
But after awhile she talked me into reading them, mostly cause she bought them.
Though the books didn't arrive before I left Sweden so instead she brought the first one to London when she was here.
Last week on Thursday I started reading it. The first chapters was so hurtful because she volunteers for her sister, so in the beginning I actually though that my sister were trying to break my heart.

But then on Monday I felt like I have to give it a try anyway.
So my plan was simple I was going to read it on my way to school to have something to do and when I wanted to take a break from my studies.
But as usually my plans never work out, so instead I started reading it at 22:00 and when I looked at the watch again she was 00:21. Not good, I forgot to do my homework and now I was too late so I had to go to bed. Against my own will I put the book in my school bag and went to sleep.

Yesterday I keept reading it every change I got, at break, at Lunch, on the toilet. All I spoke about was that book and how it kept me nailed to it.

I had promiest to go to the Social program which turned out to be really fun. We were like 25 ppl from LSI, both new and old ones.

But as soon as my but got a seat at the bus, the book was in my hands.
I had also said to David that we were going to eat dinner, but the book had its own will and didn't let me pick up the phone when he called.
The book said "If you put me away you are never going to now how it ends"
I was so afraid that the book was going to put itself on fire so I kept reading.

At 22:55 I read the last sentences in the book that had become my curse the last two days.
And realized that I loved it!

It was one of the best books I've ever read and now my hole spirit is screaming to get back to Sweden and read the other two books.
And seriously I finally come to the conclusion that England and London is so beautiful. But there is nothing like home. And as I said to my friend when he asked me If I was sad cause I was going home.
"This has been one of the best experiences I've ever had, but how am I suppose to realize that until I get home to reality"

Maybe I come back and study or get a job. But for now Im just looking forward to do my EILTS in two weeks and then go home. To my beautiful apartment, my adorable family, my mesmerizing city and my two curses ;)

Anyway, You should REALLY read this book. It is so breathtaking and it eats the back of your head until you finish it.

Tomorrow Im going to see the film on Odeon in Leicester Square. :)
First time to go to the cinema alone.

read me! read me! read me!

Sickness and Jöback.

On Thursday Christine came to London.
The exakt same date I got sick.
I really tried to keep up with her and Christine said I managed pretty good.

But since Saturday Ive just been in my bed, sleeping and watching film's.

Anyway,
On Saturday we went and saw Phantom of the Opera, cause Peter Jöback was playing the Phantom.
I think he was really awesome.
I was surprised though, cause when you've been grown up with him as Aladin. He have always been playing the nice guy and always had a pretty bright voice. It was only sometimes you actually could even hear it was him, cause he had that really deep dark voice. Im so proud of beeing a Swede when people like Jöback is on the stage and owning it!

(Hur som helst,
I lördags var vi och såg Phantom of the Opera. Det var ju Peter Jöback som spelade Phantomen.
Jag tycker han var otrolig.
Jag var ganska förvånad dock, för när man är van med honom som Aladdin. Då han alltid har spelat den snälla och alltid haft ganska ljus röst. Det var bara i vissa stunder man faktiskt kunde höra att det var han. För han lyckades ha en djup mörk röst.
Jag var riktigt stolt över att vara Svensk när jag såg honom på scenen och hur han faktiskt ägde den)

I just wish, my darlings were here to see it with me. Like Johan and Dellgren.
