I hurried back from work, had some really american sandwiches (toast, peanut butter, jam and sliced banana) and then we took off to Gothenburg to watch Alice in Wonderland in 3D.

Haha, we got really scared a couple of times, it felt like I could touch the movie!

I really have to sleep now, have a good night everyone!

I’ve been home in Sweden for more than a month and this was my first actual winter-walk! Haha! I’ve been working really hard on not going out in this horrible weather more than I need.

Home – car – work – car – home.

or

Home – car – grocery store – car – home.

The only place I’ve been wakling to is Friskis and Svettis, and that’s a  5 minutes walk. Haha.  And except that time my sister and I tumbled around in the snow.

I hate winter!

But it’s good :) I think I will go eat some cookies or something, I looove cookies!

He flew all the way here from China, and is working with my dad at Autoliv. It’s funny, ’cause his first impression about our tiny town was ”Where are all the people? I tried to find someone to ask where Autoliv is, but it took me a long time to even SEE someone to ask.”

He’s been here for three days so far, poor guy, ending up in this tiny, boring town!

Anyway, my sister and I baked a Sticky cake, a very popular cake here in Sweden. But I’m not quite sure he liked it. Haha! Maybe that’s not what you eat in China?

He seems really nice though, hopefuly he will enjoy Sweden.

I’m going out to a pub/club/bar tonight! It’s gonna be sweet!

Have a good night people!

I hope I got readers from all over the world, so some of you might laugh. Like you overly bendy South Americans or Africans:

I CANNOT MOVE!

Seriously! I’m stiff like a stick! I just got back from this dance course I’m taking. It’s Ragga-style, you know what I mean? Like… A lot of shaking and bumping. Woah, it’s so, so hard! But I’m telling you, I will learn! I’m GONNA learn!

At least it’s a challange. And I need one, since I got my very un-stimulating job.

]]> http://the-swedish-way.com/dancing-dancing-dancing/feed/ 0 Silla got the answer! http://the-swedish-way.com/silla-got-the-answer/ http://the-swedish-way.com/silla-got-the-answer/#comments Thu, 04 Mar 2010 16:57:25 +0000 Theswede http://the-swedish-way.com/?p=250 Good afternoon!

I hope  you all are good?!

At work today, I finally got the answer. Finally! This old lady at work always claims that she actually thinks it’s fun to work. And then I must add that the work we do, can’t be FUN. Sure, you can stand it. But you don’t wake up 5am longing to get to work! But she does!

At breakfast today we all talked about what it would be like to wake up and look forward to work. Then she goes

”I do! I wake up at 5am and then I just wait to go to work.”

Still the answer hadn’t hit me. Not until a couple of hours later, while I was driving my forklift, it suddenly hit me like a ligtning:  She’s crazy! (read mentally ill, it might sound a bit harsch, so take it with a pinch of salt, she’s a lovely person)

I talked about this with a friend the other day, that I must have gotten a bit mentally ill myself from working there. Somehow you have to figure out a way to stand it, right? Pretending it’s fun and inspiring, that’s what I do. But I fail most of the time.

And she’s been doing it for so long she actually believes it! Darn, she’s good!
