It's my birthday!

Yeey, I'm turning 19 today! :D It's so much fun when you log on to facebook and everybody's writing happy birthday on my log! :)
If you wanna say happy birthday to somebody in Swedish, you say grattis på födelsedagen! Go to translate on google if you wanna hear how it sounds. ;)

Amazing day at Kolmården!

Yuki, my father and I went to Kolmården yesterday, which is Scandinavia's largest zoo, and it took a little less then 2 hours to get there by car from where I live. We had so much fun! We saw alot of animals, of course, but my highlight of the day was the sharks. I love sharks! They are amazing animals, but I wouldn't wanna meet one face to face though... ^^
There was two rides that we went on too; one was like a ship going back and forth and up in the air, we laughed so much! The other one was a rollercoaster. :) But my dad didn't want to go on either one of them, so Yuki and I went once on each, and it was really fun! ^^
I'm gonna put up pictures from yesterday here on my blog when Yuki sends me the pictures, and talk a little more about it! Later today I hope. :)

Midsommar!

Today in Sweden we're celebrating the Swedish tradition Midsommar. It basically means midsummer, and we kinda celebrate the year's longest day. The christians celebrate it too because of St. John the baptist. :)
On this day we eat good food; potatos, herring, eggs and stuff like that. We tend to drink alot on this day too. ^^
We also dance around the midsummerpole and sing songs!
Well, now I have to jump in the shower and go down to the store to buy food. :) Have a nice day!

Bulle till frulle

That's Swedish. ^^ I'm eating a very tasty cinnamon bun for breakfast, and if you say - Cinnamon bun for breakfast in Swedish, you simply say - Bulle till frulle! Well, breakfast in Swedish is actually frukost, but frulle is a short for frukost, and bulle and frulle rhymes! ^^ Hope I'm not confusing you. O.o
Today Yuki/Kiki, my father and I are going to my aunts house to celebrate her husband's birthday. I'm not sure how old he gets, but I'm sure that we'll have so much fun! Gonna take pictures. :D

Good life

I'm in a supergood mood today! My mood can change so fast between the days, and today is just a good day. I'm happy, got alot of energy, I'm just enjoying life. Hope you all feel the same! And if you don't, try to sit down, take a deep breath, and think about what's good in your life right now. Think about your goals in life, and what you wanna do to get there. Because you will get there if you fight for it! Anything is possible. :) And it's okay to have a bad day, remember that after rain comes sunshine! ;)

I'm going to the gym soon with my mother. We didn't go there yesterday, because we met up and I just really wanted to eat sushi! And I usually listen to my instincts. And my instinct said that I should eat sushi. So I did! Kiki. ^^

Oh btw; when I did yoga this monday, I ate a healthy and very tasty snack. Allévo Low Calorie Bar; Blueberry. I don't need a low calorie bar, I know that I'm thin and not fat at all, but it was so tasty! Promise, you all should try it! I don't know if it's a Swedish snack, I think so but I don't know. If it isn't and you can buy it in your country, I suggest you try it. :) There's other flavours too, but I think this one with blueberry is really good!

The day after Valborg

Like I said yesterday, on 30 April, all night, and 1 May we are celebrating that spring has arrived, and we call it Valborgsmässoafton, but you can just say Valborg as well.
I had so much fun! And I'm really tired today, haha. I was with Yuki, "Kecki", and we were going to Gustavsberg, but it started to get late, and Gustavsberg is far away from my home. So we started to text friends, and a few told us to go to Mirran, a pub in Skogås, so we went there and met a few old friends and got some new friends too. We sang kareoke and laughed and took a few beers. After they closed around 2 A.M, we went home to a friend, Mikael, with a few other guys, and we played cards and talked about both serious and fun stuff!
I went home around 6 in the morning I think. Made the boys listen to some Korean music, but they didn't complain. ;)
Well, today it's my turn to cook, I cook every sunday. :) I usually make asian food, mostly Korean, but I'm really tired today, so I'm gonna cook something simple, like fries and chicken nuggets! Yummie. :)
I will do a Word of the Day also, I haven't done it for days now. And you will of course get a Hottie of the Day as well, grr. ;)

This is a pretty small fire, the ones I usually visit is a bit bigger. But I didn't take a
photo of a fire this year, so I took one from Google just to show you. :)
We call the fire Majbrasa.

Valborg

At 30 April to 1 Maj we're celebrating something called Valborgsmässoafton, but we just call it Valborg. ;) It's a typical Swedish/Nordic thing I think, and we have a big fire and celebrate that spring has arrived, it's kinda like 4th July for Americans, for example! It's really fun, and we have lots of performers and candy and games you can play around the big fire. :)
And tonight Yuki and I are going to Gustavsberg to meet Mari, a friend of mine that I haven't seen in weeks, fun!  And I'm gonna meet her new boyfriend for the first time too.
And I'm gonna tell you about our new nicknames... ;) Yuki's new nickname is Kecki, and mine is Peppi. Haha, we we're at my cousins birthdayparty and decided to have some fun with words, it doesn't mean anything special, just wordplay!
I can tell you about yesterday tomorrow, so I can tell you about what I did on Valborg too at the same time. ;) I hope you all have a wonderful Swedish Valborg, go out and party like you live in Sweden for tonight! ;D

Peace and Love - JP <3.
