beard
so yeah, what better way than spending your saturday morning (?) looking at different beardtrimmers on amazon after finishing that extra fatty hamburger that restored your powers from last night. friday on friday was great fun, kudos to the girls.
also once again, pandora is making me fall in love all over again. while spotify great for when you know what you want to hear, pandora is great for...

oh
and btw … my girlfriend just might be your next swedish top-blogger. awesome, i’m becoming a groupie
second
so i had my second class yesterday, called ad survey. now that name is quite misleading as i with somewhat sad eyes imagined 15 weeks of studying “surveys” and what we can get out of them. luckily i was way off. it’s more of a discussion panel, our teacher being the allmighty well of knowledge and us being the misguided poor fools hoping to find the true path to infinite creative...

snart sa borjar det.
it shall begin very soon
shoro mikone scheily zood. (?)
alone
in the girls house right now. or at least that’s what i think, someone might be upstairs sleeping but if they haven’t woken up with the ruckus i’ve made i’m pretty sure they either are dead or recently suffered from loss of hearing. c’s already in school, my first class starts tomorrow.
if the visit to ikea reminded me of something yesterday i assume it was my...
hey
this is your average smug-post.
aaaaaaaah
p.s. you can now reach me at heyfarid at skype
spent
today i payed a forth of my tution, hoping that until next payment the dollar will drop … really really deep. and i also became the owner of a new macbook. great stuff, i’ll pick it up tomorrow probably. or tonight if i become too needy.
financially i’m feeling pretty unpretty right. like dirty.
we went and and saw obama inauguration. even though we are not americans ourselves...
44th
the speakers at wholefood scream and grunt words which we mere human are not able to understand. “huaaaaweee at liiuun tvoooo”. it suprises me everytime as i try to decode the hidden messages underneath. they must lead to treasure i think. why would they make it so hard otherwise. yes that’s it.
the last few days have been turbulent. but in a good way. new apartment, new number...
hej
mamma och pappa:
telefonen funkar inte overdrivet bra just nu. comviq ar struligt pa det sattet. jag verkar dock kunna ta emot sms om det ar ngt. annars kan ni ju prova ringa mig och se om det funkar istallet. men ngn vidare bra kommunikation ar det inte just nu.
vi har hittat en bostad. i little italy. huset ser ut som ngt ur sallskapsresan och besitter inte riktigt samma karaktar som...
sigh
the anxiety continues as the dollar pushes upwards. well, at least i have a us-account at the bank now. i guess in someway that should easy up something.
the girls found their apartment yesterday. congrats! a nice loft (haven’t seen it myself yet but heard the praise) in the soma-area. c looks really happy and i love see her smiling. as for the guys, the hunt continues. in a way it’s...
ångest
det pågår ngn sorts ångest-attack just nu när dollarn ligger på 8,31 … vad hände?
giveth
and then they taketh.
the gods of craiglist are not generous with their love. like bastard childs we are shunned away from the warmth of the fire, forced to huddle in the dark corner of their eyes. do not be seen, do not speak. never be heard.
finding a place to live here in sf is not much difference than sthlm. men are men (lousy, unable to depend on, messy and all kind of goodies), and women...
morning
assåååååå …
cali is treating us well. really well. she sings to us and holds us close to her magnificent bosom. when she smiles rays of sunlight are thrown towards us and freckles paint our faces. for those of us who forgotten the feeling of summer, a tear gently falls down when we are reminded of … the good life.
it’s not typically this way in sf they say. of course not, but...
night
my language has been altered.
ngn tog mina a a o.
but we are in sf now. adelaide hostel/dakota. same place as last time, only one level up. brings back good memories. passport control was a bummer, and we missed our flight. we got lucky in the end and jumped on the next one.
mom, dad. it’s all good here. it’s warm and i can’t wait until the sun goes up again.
entertain us
leaving
good night sweden.
hello america.
do
it’s funny when you think of it. tomorrow i’ll be gone.
och allt kommer på det stora hela vara likadant som innan.
sthml will be gone. family will be gone. friends (the majority) will be gone. home will be gone. does to frighten you? i’m not sure it has caught up to me yet … the days so far here has been filled with talks, meetings, paper work and everything else between....
we are
she gave me headphones. effin’ awesome headphones. i told her she’s my favourite 80’s song, and that’s meaning a lot considering the massive amount of great songs that were made during the 80’s.
now i need a mp3-player. perfect. welcome to the consumer foodchain.
excellent.
there is a bottle of champagne in our fridge. tomorrow it will be gone.
studs
most of us have jobs that are too small for our spirits.
Studs Terkel
i always love to quote albert einstein because nobody dares contradict him.
fantastisk skribent, journalist och människa i allmänhet. med coolt namn. gick bort förra året. får ni chans att läsa ngt av honom gör det.
i want a language that speaks the truth.
sådär ja. lite måndagsutbildning.

C ritade min julklapp. det var imponerande. en t-shirt med design av min favorit corey lewis. det var sjukt roligt o oväntat med så är det ofta med henne.
gårdagen var riktigt fin. maten på hoummus mättade (till en början) och sällskapet underhöll. C var vacker som vanligt. vi dansade på soap (för omväxling skull) innan vi blev nekade på spybar (har du haft roligt ikväll?) för att istället frusna...
rumbling
back in sthml.
jag har verkligen aldrig riktigt saknat ngn på det sättet. och det känns bra.
luckily, to prevent me from overdosing C, there is a “the hills”-marathon (11-18) on mtv which steals her attention away from me now and then. thanks lauren and audrina.
ikväll fyller J år. grattis!
we’re heading out later tonight, eating and enjoying our last saturday in sweden.were...
morning-ångest
bara en reminder till mig själv. om ngn annan än C ringer ikväll så kommer denna att dö. så var det sagt. better be a emergency.
back at work, last day.today is probably going to be pretty calm (peppar peppar peppar). my biggest fear however is the fact that i have to say goodbye to my parents today … of course we will talk again before the planes leaves on wednesday but yeah, this will be...

heading back to sthlm in around one day.
jag har aldrig riktigt saknat ngn på det sättet.
on the 4th we’ll dance for the last time on a saturday in sweden the coming six months. that sentence should stir up something in me, but it really doesn’t. it feels completely natural. it’s a step to something greater (at least i hope). mentally, i stepped onboard that plane a long time...
new
… och så kom det sig att det nya året började med solsken.
great night indeed. awesome friends, good food, somewhat good music. fireworks were fun. drunk phonecalls to C with a raspy voice, only to hear that hers is even more raspy. promises. decisions.
it was a great night, although i guess you have to live with current intelligensvakuum for a couple of hours. and then a movie at the...
