Things to do when I get back home

Okay. I love it here with all my heart, and if it wasn't for the fact that all of my friends and family are in Sweden I wouldn't see a reason to go back there - but I still get those moments, here, when I think of something I just can't wait to do when I get back home to the glorious North and my cozy ass room.

  • Buy a bag of lantchips, prepare a tall glass of O'boy and have a tv-show marathon.
    This is one of the best things ever, I kid you not. The chips and O'boy thingy is a habit I picked up from my dear Gabbi, who loves chips and O'boy together aswell. And a tv-show just makes it even more perfect.
  • Sitting under my blood red blanket with a cup of green tea in my favourite mug (with a green tea cozy designed by Bestie!)
    My dear Bestie gave me the most amazing mug as a gift about a year ago. It's huge, white, with a green tea cozy that has a pink, crochet "A" on it. It's my all-time favourite and I just really love green tea. It reminds me of London.
  • Read Harry Potter.
    I did not bring my Harry Potter books to America due to their weight, and I miss them so. It's not worth buying them all over just to have them to read here, so until I get to see my loved ones again my need is filled by reading fanfiction.
  • Eat saffron buns and drink mulled wine.
    Mainly a Christmas thing. Trust me. Nothing beats this. It's the best feeling in the world when you have your very first saffron bun of the year and a scolding hot cup of mulled wine.
  • Seeing my brilliant friends and family again.
    By far the most important one. I've cried over how much I miss them, and realized how much I actually do love them. Pookie! My dear honey buns! Thinking about seeing them again makes me so uncontrollable flippin' happy - it's insane.

Eighteen

I turned eighteen today. I'm legally an adult. My host parents made the perfect cake. All chocolate-y. Now I'm sitting on my bed, listening to Drake Bell while streaming Superbad. I'm contempleting wether to go get the Dumle bag in the cupboard or not. Chances are I will.

The best part about having a birthday is the cake and how you will have left-over cake for days to munch on.
