realization

Don't you hate it when you come to understand something you know that you've known all the way, you've just ignored. But trust me, reality IS catching up to bite your ass and curse you because you've been so stupid. So if you wanna know that's where you can find me right now. People you already know are bad will not change just because you want them to. Credulity is very overrated. Good thing I realized this now and not in a month or two :)

Anyway, positive thoughts!! I've got a carrot cake baking in my oven right now..... my teammates coming over tonight and I was thinking that carrot cake is the perfect pre game meal before our game tomorrow ;)

Sooooo I gotta go clean up this mess that my apartment is creating..

Fun friday!!! Wohoooo.... or... not.
Haha, take care of each other babes.
Love ~Jo

Friday morning fun

Good morning peeps!
I don't know about you guys, but I can definately think of at least 100 things that's more fun to do than paying bills, especially when you just woke up.
But oh well, at least they're paid now and suddenly my bank account isn't as big as I thought..... I hate growing up.

Today's plan is first of all the mandatory lunch with my teammates. We have lunch together every day and that lunch saves my day more often than you can imagine ;) And then I'm gonna go bike-hunting..... we'll see how that'll go.

Anywayayyayay, doesn't get more fun than this on a friday morning. I'll get back to you with some fun stufffff though.

Have a good day everyone!
Love love love ~Jo

Grandmothers

My sweet, wonderful grandma.
She's 92, a little foozy but the most kind-hearted person.

So, last night when I was "babysitting" her and she asked for the threehundredandfiftyfourth time where grandpa was.... I didn't have the heart to tell her that she already had asked that 353 times before so I just said where he was and if that didn't improve my patience I don't know what will...
I kind of feel a special connection to my granny just because I am an 72 years younger exact copy of her. We are the same height, her old dresses fits perfectly on my body.... And when I look at old head shots of her I can't believe that It's not me. I look like so much like she did when she was young it makes me scared.

Grandma ~20 yrs

Ok so it doesn't look like it in these pics...... But I promise you it's crazy bananas how much I look like her

Don't really have anything more to say, I've had a really crappy day but I'm not gonna take it out here on my precious little blog ;)

Just take care of each other and remember that you're all worth the whole world.
We all tend to forget that sometimes, don't we?
Love ~Jo

I love myself!!!

My dear blog,
Sometimes I just can't helt falling in love with myself.
I never ever check my e-mail before I go to bed... but last night I did, and I'm sooooo happy I did.
Because my professor had e-mailed us and said that my 8 a.m. class is cancelled.

I'm so happy for both me and my surroundings that I found out..... I probably would've hit someone because waking up in the morning is not really my favorite thing to do.

So whats the plan for today?
School, practice and then I'm gonna babysit my grandma.

Questions? Okkk no questions on that.

Maybe I should join my group in our group project now.... I feel like a slacker.

Love ~Jo

America vs. Europe

One thing that I'm going to write a lot about in this blog is the differences between the US and Europe.... Or mostly Sweden, I don't really care about the rest. But because most of you americans don't know the difference between Sweden, Switzerland, or any other european country I'll just sum it up and say Europe...

These differences can vary a lot..... It could be everything from health care systems to what and what not they're selling at Walmart.

And oh my god WALMART, I could write for hours about that place...... could it possibly be heaven on earth? We don't have that kinda store here ya know...... Geeez how I miss driving down to the wal-wal and just walking around for hours, trying on everything that I could fit in.... But if we look at it from the other side I lived in the smallest and most boring town ever and there wasn't much else to do.

I'll continue this tomorrow.... Right now I really need a shower. Bball practice two hours ago and I've almost got used to this smell.... But I think that my surroundings would appreciate it if I washed this sweaty body.

I can see that you are a few people who have found your way here.... I would be one very very very happy camper if you would just leave a comment on here. Right now it feels like I'm talking to myself and it freaks me out a little.

Thanks and I hope that everyone has a wonderful day!
Stay positive and spread some l o v e ~Jo

Wallymart. I miss all the weird people that worked there.... Some stranger than others

I can't help feeling that we could've had it all

Why does it always sounds so good when you're home alone singing?

I feel bad for my neighbors but right now I'm singing Adele and I'm not keeping it down.....
I actually think it sounds really good. Hell, i think i'm gonna try out for American Idol.
Until I turn on the actual song with the original artist, because then I blush a little and feel embarrassed that I even thought the thought.

I think I'll keep this singing career between these four walls. But daaamn, I'm good in here.

Let's shrink the world

You see this chick on the left?
That's my best friend. The second before this pic was taken she slapped my face.
But what I was gonna say is that I miss her.
My 3 best friends all live on 3 different continents.
One in Aussie land, one in Norway and one in the US.
And I don't live in any of these countries.
So my suggestion is that we make this world all about me and make the world much much smaller.
I'd say just shrink it to the size of Wyoming. Or make flight tickets cheaper.
But it has to happen cause Skype just doesnt do it for me anymore.

Love ~Jo

yeah buddy, rollin' like a big shot

So, I don't know what you guys think.... But I don't really like waking up at 6.30 a.m.
But because I'm a good girl I was going to class at 8....... only to find out it was a totally useless class and it was over after 25 minutes... So I could've slept in until 10 but instead I had 3 hours to kill at the university. Love my life.

Right now I'm so tired I have to fight against my will to take a nap..... Because I know that if I do, I will hate myself at 5a.m when I'm lying in bed counting sheep, desperately trying to fall asleep...

And just a reminder to myself: I have to remember to send away a special package to a special girl in North Dakota tomorrow..... the world's greatest Dawne has turned 21! Crazzzzy Bananas!!!

2½ more hours until practice starts..... And I have to go do something so that I won't fall asleep.

See you later lovers! ~Jo

This is me and dawne almost 2 years ago! It's craaaaazy how time flies.....

This shit is insane

Oh and excuse my language.
But this blogging thing is way more intense than I thought.
There are so many things to do with the design and all that.... So i forgot to actually write?

So!!!!! Let's start this thing.
Í will start this blog by apologizing about all of the thing that I won't apologize for in the future...

1. I'm sorry if my posts are too long and boring. If they are, you will have the qualified right to cyber-slap me in the face.

2. I'm sorry if my english isn't perfect. I'm not american, english, australian or any other nationality who spoke english even before they came out their mommy's vavuzzle.

3. I'm sorry if I curse.... The only year I spent in an english-speaking country was with lots of ghetto bball players... and their way of spreading their love is by simply saying "i'd fuck that bitch". But I'm not like that, i proooomise...

4. I'm sorry if you don't agree with everything I say. But that's not really my problem.

Ha ha....... Nr 4 is SO not true. But didn't I sound really cool and confident when I said that it's not my problem? I wish! if you don't like what I say, just let me know and I will change. Because I always have a strong urge to please every single person that I meet. I want everyone to like me.

And that didn't sound self-pitying at aaaaaaaaaalll.
I think I'll stop there. I can feel that I'm off to a great start.......

So long lovers! ~Jo

So......

.... This is my first post ever and I'm already having trouble coming up with headlines. Lots of room for improvement. Good good.

So. Who am I and what am I doing here?
I'm a 20-year old girl, high on life and with a lot of random thoughts and weird questions... So I was thinking about starting a blog to see if someone's with me in this madness or if I'm just a really weird human being.

If that would be the case, you're more than welcome to just read and laugh at me..

Lots of love! ~Jo
