Bland myror, svett och sol

Nu har jag tagit beslutet att övergå till svenska på min blogg (i alla fall för ett tag).
Denna veckan har varit varierande och rätt bra får jag nog konstatera efter en härlig fredagskväll på lilla torg med mina fina kursare Tina och Emelie. Visst, jag har fått så många myrsamtal att jag vill spy, men efter att ha genomlidit timmat på jobb är bästa medicinen att få gå ut i fantastisk solsken och suga upp D-vitaminer. Jag tycker inte längre att jag hade kunnat vara en statist till Twilight-filmerna - nice! Träningen har legat på en bra nivå och varit varierad. Mitt eget pass kändes grymt härligt. Kul att Axis-kompis Åsa kom förbi. Sen så var det upplyftande med positiv feedback från övriga deltagare. Kick! Om jag nu får lov att klaga på nackdelen med det fantastiska vädret så är det att löpning blir en mindre plåga. Jag kan inte ha varit en vacker syn när jag på en  kvav tisdag eftermiddag/kväll släpade mig tillbaka upp genom kyrkogården för att avsluta 8km på en ovanligt långsam tid. Tempo fanns bara inte!

Nu är det helg, och när andra drar på sig bikinin och drar ner till havet så ska jag kedja fast mig vid datan och göra slutspurten på terminen sista skolarbete. Jag får se fram emot ljusglimtarna helgen har att erbjuda; mysfrukost på underbar soldränkt balkong, träning, dusch, sola en kort stund??, god mat och promenad med Emelie och hennes hund Lexus.

Blodomloppet

After a full day's work mum and I headed for the annual Blodomloppet at Heleneholm. I was so proud of her for finishing 5,6km - running the full distance - in 43 minutes. Myself I realised I haven't recovered fully from my cold, I had a lot of phlegm in my throat, making it slightly difficult to breath. Still I finished just under 45 minutes as I aimed for: 44:48. I placed 21st in total which I'm very happy about.
In general it was really nice to see so many people - more than 10 000 people - gathering to run for the benefit of blood donations.

Some ups and some downs

One bike lost, one idiot on a train and a one tripp with dad's new boat!

I'm officially a citizen of Malmo - my 12 year old bike got stolen tuesday this week. I don't care so much about the bike as such but I'm annoyed as I depend on my bike for getting everywhere. Now I have to either take the time to walk or plan according to bus schedules. Not my style!

That same day I encountered an idiot on the train. Or I didn't actually see the idiot but my train was almost 30min delayed because of him. How hard can it be? No ticket - no ride!! And if caught having no ticket, you leave the train without objection! But nooo, not this guy. He refused and threatened the train conducter. We then had to wait for the police to get there. Sigh! Some people!

I felt kinda down towards the end of the work week. Not sure what to do in order to turn this around... I don't want to feel like this all summer long...

Today (sunday) dad took me out fishing in his new boat. We went to the harbour in Limhamn (Malmö) and the weather was beautiful!! I have a feeling we will very much enjoy having the boat this summer...

Dad and I :)

Dad caught one (I caught two...hehe)

Recap: April

Really cool street performance at Covent Garden

Ok so basically I have completely forgotten to write my blog. Not ok. My excuse will have to be that I have been very busy. I have been studying, working at Anticimex, doing a paid project for the university and kept up with my spin classes. Last weekend I finally got to have a little bit of holiday going to England and meet my lovely friends. Went there thursday 26th and came back monday 30th (Valborg). The weather was a bit appalling but I enjoyed my visit none the less. Spent some time at Victoria Albert Museum. Why have I never been there before?? It's a really great museum and I recommend it to anyone going to London. I also got to do some longed-for shopping...


On saturday me, Lizzy and Chris went on a roadtrip to University of Essex for the alumni weekend. It was great meeting all the youngsters and going out for the evening (seeing Nav, Faize, Mandeep, Kyle, Rob, Richard etc.) The only downside of my visit was that I didnt get to see Kirsty :(
Valborg evening I went to a bbq at Lena's. Calm and nice evening. I could not have done any more than that since I started to feel ill. The rest of the week I have felt like death. Seriously, it is ok to be ill when its winter and aweful weather outside - not now when spring has finally arrived and it's nice and sunny!!
After having put flowers and furniture on my balcony, done my laundry and baked some buns I'm now finally starting to feel better. Tomorrow is a new week and I hope it will be a better one!

The results of shopping in London one day!
