Terror

I had to go to centrum of Umeå today, had a appointment with my chiropractor. My back wasn't that bad today, for the first time in 2 years it was totally pain free to get the treatment. I feel a bit tired, chiropractic treatment, hot and heavy weather and 6 hours physiology (more or less) does about anyone tired.

Anyway, at my way back to the bus I remembered that my brand new glasses needed adjustment. So I went to the optician. Then I had to stop by the grocery store. To get there I have to pass through a clothing store. Nothing special about that, except that I Noticed a some peculiar arrangement of clothes category combination. First, hidden in a corner, there was the plus size category. Next to it a wall of sports garnments. And then, just a couple of meters away and in direct vision contact to plus size I spotted the new collection of bikinis. So, put the fatties and the hotties in the same corner. It will really help out on the self esteem for both those who need plus size and for those anorectics who think they're fat and are forced (by their own) to buy yet a set of sports clothes..

(And yes, there is something to be said about netiquette. I have to have summer classes in this subject for some of my nearest and dearest. Ahrg!)

Lightning and thunder

Isn't it strange? Today the sun rised at 03.32 am. It set at 21.41 and it is still dusk. In about a month (when i got my last final this semester), the night wil only last about 3 hours and 15 minutes, and it will be dusk the intire time.

The summer arrived yesterday, with lightning and thunder. My head gets quite heavy and sore before a thunder, so I knew it for quite some hours before the clouds gathered. Since my head doesn't work very well with thunder, my reading had to end quite early. And the telly and computer had to be off.. So what to do when the rain sweeps over my brand new windows? Well.. I found me myself some ice cream and sat in the sofa and watched the nature.

The rain washed away the very last patch of snow in our garden, and I woke up to the very first day of summer today. 22 degrees celsius, blue sky and a mild breeze. Of course had I to take my beloved Guyton & Hall outside and read in the garden.. The reading it self lasted for maybe 15 minutes, but ah. sunshine!

Anyway, I realized that my reading ability is not very great in the first summer day, so I went back inside. After a bit reading (about human growth hormone), some dinner and more reading, I got that "thundering" feeling again.. So I took a peek out the windows, the clouds seemed to have gathered again. But I also noticed a young man in the back yard, at the grill.. He had a plate of meet, a nice fire on the grill and probably a beer in his hand. Not so good timing, within 5 minutes the first raindrops landed, the guy looked a bit confused before he collected his stuff and leaved the back yard. I felt a bit sorry for him.

Hm.. I think I have to gather some classmates for a grill party before the semester ends.. And by the way, I got myself a summer job.. or actuall two! One on the local eldery home, and one at the regional hospital. :)

Oh..

..then time passed by.

Had a blast in Czech Republic the weekend after easter, then I travelled home, got ill, got better, had my final (got ill again), passed my final and started to read for my next final.

Yeah, and my windows are FINALLY swopped! The new ones are much better and nicer. I have to read today, but my thougths are anywhere but at home.

Easter and beeing eaten.

Due to some strange traditions in Sweden, I'm granted easter holiday one week later than "normal". But I still got to meet my sister and her new puppy "Nansen". And I think he liked me, probably because I'm so chewy.. The pup is just shedding his teeth, and I was the perfect victim for his frustration. Cute boy, funny to see him, even if it was a bit painful too..

Luckily, my sisters easter holiday ended before all of me became dogfood, so I will proceed with my traveling plans. Czech Republic next!

Good bye, windows!

My apartement has gone through lots of renewal this winter. Of course, the kitchen has been totally redone, but also the livingroom have been redecorated. There is just some small things left to do;
-I forgot to buy a new dresser
-I miss 2 sets of curtains
-The windows are about to be changed.
Actually, the old windows will be taken out and replaced during the week after easter. Hopefully, my apartement will be a bit quieter, warmer and less dusty place after this.

The easter holiday has started for allmost everybody, exept me and my classmates. We are given our holiday a week later!? Anyway, my plans for my easter is set: going home to Norway, seeing my family, and then go to Czech Republic once again. I'm really looking forward to se my old classmates, even if it will sting a bit that they're allmost ready with their 3rd year, I'm not finished with my 1st yet... Everything takes a lot of time for me..

It is allmost 2 years since the accident now. I still got some bruises on my leg (!!!), and days where I can't do anything due to pain. But I'm still getting better.. slowly, slowly.. Hopefully...

Here is some photos of my apartement after nearly finishing some redecorating:

Osteology

I'm gonna have osteology tomorrow. Got the papers today; it's only a A-4 paper with some anatomical structures of the upper limb; we will have 4 hours to find the structures on a plastic model.. A bit different than CZ...
