Too school for cool
Finally we got to have our christmas holiday and me and a couple of friends were so happy that we started celebrating right away.
After a couple of shots I got tipsy as hell. I remember gettin alot of mood swings but luckly I didn't do anything too weird.
Another highlight of the day was when a friend gave me an early birthday present, which I totally didn't except. I was so happy to get Beyoncé's Midnight Heat from KICKS and a friendship necklace with one of my favourite colors.
Next day I went on and celebrated with some other friends and we did the ordinary; baked, watched a bunch of movies and series, danced and more.
And now it's christmas time, Merry Christmahanakwanzika because fak mainstream!

I was just browsing the interweb as usual, when I ended up on a page with an article saying how Michael Jackson was predicted - some decades ago, to look like in the future:
But of course he later suffered from vitligo, which I actually thought was a genetic cause, but apparently was due to a mistake that was made when he performed on stage back then. This made him suffer from "second- and third-degree burns all over his head and face".
Scary stuff... one little thing changing everything

It has been a cool educative experience that will really help me in my future education.
OK, you may be thinking (What is she trippin about?)
Well, these past two days, a guy and I got selected in our school for having shown a significant interest in mathematics, therefore we flew to Umeå to become a part of an organization. It is called “Sonja Kovalevsky-dagarna” and the idea has been - for the past 13 years - to make people more interested in maths.
To be honest, there were many of us expecting to see a lot of nerd-looking people, like a bunch of Sheldons with a somewhat wiseacre attitude. But I was proven wrong when I got to see the cool people who were social, funny and had the same interests as I.
Plus it felt like college, the fact that we weren’t that many people (just a little over a hundred) and we did see a great many lectures about mathematics in general, which also surprised me a lot because I didn't expect them to be that inspiring. Besides that we had a couple of math challenges and even singing challenges. At evenings some of us played poker, when others went to get wasted or watch das fussball when Sweden lost lol.
I think many of us agreed by the fact that we were treated as prince - and princesses, the food was sooo good and the hotel - just lovely. And before we took of, we got to take all the candies that they had for us and I took a whole bag of candy and chips. Then some of us took a night-train for 14 hours, which I found cozy. ^^

Just a normal friday evening I decided to dance and do a couple of splits in between. Later I discovered something unpleasant - I had ripped the back of my jeans...
But whatever, at least it managed to evoke some nostalgia:

Today might be a good day, if your name isn't Rita Iteka.
I had a couple of bad luck experiences after school, one being my phone not working as it should and the other being too yolo (not going to explain though)
But one who also happened to experience some type of bad luck was my dad. He was only riding his bike heading to work, when out of the blue came a car and hit him. The driver was apparently in his 60's and he drove on a bikers road by accident... if you ask me, he's prolly a drunk mofo and is too old for that shit!
At least my dad wasn't badly injured, plus he's ensured and he's not missing out. But the funny thing is that my troll of a dad is enjoying it, saying he's not working for at least one month and the thought of not having to work and still get money seems to have given him the positive mood.
What's -(-1)? You know it, it's the positive 1.
I guess if you can turn negative to positive in math, you can do it with other things as well.

Sick bunny, ain't funny

Nature
Just recently, my sister and I were walking down town when the weather was hot and on our way home we bumped into this bunny. It looked so peaceful and totally harmless and of course my first thought was to pet the cutie.
You may not notice it at first sight, but this bunny isn't really healthy. According to some of the other observers, the bunny seemed blind, so I looked again and I saw it's eyes all runny making it hard for it to see where it was heading. The better explanation is that it had caught the pest - which I just found out later, has spred all over the town.
I love bunnies, and seeing one struggling to hop around and running, stumbling all over the place, was a sad view. I felt this pity and I just wanted to pick it up and bring it home then take it to the vet... but the others told me to stay away from it and keep my hands out of its view, so I did as I was told. You could tell that it only had a few weeks or even days to live...

School
Two days ago I got so excited for school to start again, thinking I was going to have this chill, awesome schedule like my sister and all the old "treor" had, meaning less subjects. Instead, this is what I got.
Week A & B
I get stressed out just by looking at it...gaaahh I hate it.
Ques & Ans
When I'm confused about some certain things and have no intention of bothering people with my weirdness, I ask my friend google. I thought I was being weird until I searched for weird but funny questions/answers on the website. And these are just a few of those that put a smile on my face. Not sure if some of them are just trolls or just stupid.
Oh Africa
My sister arrived to Sweden this weekend and thank god I nagged on her about the things I wanted her to bring to from our homeland, because she sure had a lot of baggage with her!
She also wanted to bring back some of our childhood memories, so she brought sweets and candies that we ate as kids, the food that I haven't eaten since the last African party I attended to. Some old pictures of us and my mom... I don't really have that many memories with my mom, because both her and my dad worked a lot when we were kids, so for my family in Burundi to let us have some of the pictures was really appreciated.
I was also very happy to see my sister, because I experienced a lot of difficulties during her time in Burundi. But I didn't want to bring up all the bad news right away. Instead my brother and my dad planned on guiding her around the city.
Later my brothers and I decided to take her down town to play billiard and ping pong at a really cool place, which included a bar, a club and many game areas. It's really a place to go, my siblings and I hadn't hung out in a long time this year rather than playing on the Xbox... so it was nice to do something else!
Thumbs up!

Work
Finally, my job is done and I can have a vacation for two more weeks until school starts again.
Gaaahhh, I can't believe how fast the summer has gone compared to last year, when I had no plans at all!
I've learned alot and started appreciating more things in life, thanks to the people I met during work. So I can say that this was a great experience after all.
Over and out!
Senior VS. Junior
It's been almost two weeks since I started working with old people. It's me and another girl and our job is pretty much like being their friend; We roll them outside, sitting near a pond watching goldfishes swim, paint their nails in prettiful colours, play games like Fia med knuff (they love that shit) or videogames like Wii (but since we noticed how bad we were at persuading people), most of them just say they prefer to watch us play instead of joining us. As for singing we're like "Heyyy xxx, you look nice today! Do you think you can join and sing with us downstairs? I think you'll like it" and they be like "Nah, I can't sing. I think I'll just sit here and rest", but when the staff asks them to join they're like "Yeah sounds like fun!" and I be like "Really, wth?"
It may sound like a lot of things going on but the thing is, things I just mentioned represents only like 30% of the time. The rest of the time we just sit and talk to them. Sometimes I think we're getting paid for doing meaningless stuff, but that's actually what they want, as long as we manage to get the seniors in action then we're good to go! Anyways, even though the job is easy, I find it quite dull since most of them can't speak properly which makes it even harder for us to come up with fun things that they like to do (thank god I'm not the only teen). But I'd rather work with taking care of kids instead. They may be annoying, screaming, refusing to eat and stuff like that, but they're more fun to take care of and well, kids are easier to manipulate.
Old people on the other hand, want to manipulate ME instead, thinking I should feel sorry for them...But oh well I've noticed how less sympathetic I've become for each day. Especially after noticing that two of the old ladies were acting fake when I started; telling me they couldn't do things without my help, like getting up out of bed, chairs and stuff like that, that it's sweet of me for helping an old lady. Acting all helpless despite their ability of managing those little things without any physical assistance.
So I can by now say that it's stress-free to take care of elderly people, but boring as hell and vice versa when it comes to children. Eitherway it's better then not working at all.

ER-MA-GERD We've beaten our new record - living in a place for more than 4 years! I guess it's time to say "Buh bye!" to Höganäs and "Hello!" to Halmstad!
Win-win!
My family and I don't usually celebrate our birthdays, but we do give each other gifts every now and then. And yesterday my brother turned 13 and I thought I'd buy him something since I started working anyway.
Since our old xbox 360 controls broke for some clumsy reasons, I told him I would buy him new ones. Initially I was messing with him about buying pink ones but then he said it would be cool, but I didn't find any at the store so I ended up buying him two black controls instead (one of them being spent with my own money and the other one with my dad's that he had sent to my bank account for his b-day)
Anyways I told my brother that one of the controls is basically mine and that I now have the control over the control (I know evil right?). So if my brothers don't do their chores or if they start arguing over nothing, I'll have the right to take the control as their punishment! Mohahaha

Work
My sister is going to Burundi with my uncle soon so today she went to Uppsala to his place. It feels weird because now I'm responsible for everything that happens at home when dad isn't around, it's gonna be hard since I'm lazy and I got a job this summer.
Plus I started babysitting in her place and the kid was really enjoying messing with me at first, since I was being this noob thinking he'd do anything I say if I'm really nice to him. Turns out he just needed some tough love. Otherwise I like taking care of him, it brings back my childhood memories. Watching cartoons early in the morning, playing outside without rules, I've actually missed that shit...
