Sorry my beloved fans....
I haven't been writing much at all, been busy working, also went to L.A and Las Vegas over thanksgiving. Came home this Sunday, was one of the best vacations in my whole life. Met me two Swedish friends Sarah and Sofie. We had a blast and I spend all my money but that's what I was saving for.

Met up with the girls in San Francisco after work on Wednesday, They where suppose to sleep here two days but we did a plan-change for everyone's best. We took a overnight bus from 11 pm-7 am to Los Angeles. Then we had a full day of fun, saw the Hollywood sign, Beverly hills  walked around, saw the walk of fame, and we took a bus-trip to Santa Monica. We had so much fun, we lived in a Hostel in Hollywood. When we walked outside the door we where on the Walk of Fame, how cool is that?? The hostel had free.beer at the night so me and Sarah join the clan and got kinda shitfaced, played pool, danced and we actually meet a guy from Stockholm that also lived at the hostel.

Friday we took a bus at 7 pm-1 am to Las Vegas it was living up to my expectations  people being drunk at the streets, lights and high buildings everywhere, people gamble up all their money. Well I didn't since I'm smart (?) or maybe just a terrible gamer, lol. We lived at a cheap hostel downtown Vegas, I liked it it was a 10 ppl dorm room so we had other people mixed with both boys and girls sleeping in there. We did a Pub-crawl always wanted to try that, It was cool. We had super nice weather  shorts and just a top, loved it.

Txted with my old host-mum from Virginia today, she said my room is still there and is very empty without me. No one can understand how much I miss them, they really excepted me with all their hearts. Will try to go back and visit them before I leave to Sweden again.

I don't have much time writing now I'm just writing since my grandma (L) emailed me pointing out that I didn't write since the 15th. She the sweetest ever, Love my grannie.

My family from Sweden are coming to the country between 24th dec- 7 jan. I'll take out a week vacation and celebrate Christmas and new years with them, I can't describe how happy I'm to meet them again, was more than a year ago since I left Sweden. We prolly go to L.A but they will fly here to San Francisco. I love my family, one more Christmas without them would be sad, so really hope all the plans that we have now will work out.

I can't sit here anymore, the gym is calling me. I'll try to update more, this is a great way to just write down stuff that I have in my head so I can move forward.

Didn't feel like writing lately. But well here we gooooo


First off all, Life is good! Been hanging out a lot with Carole and Maja the Swedish girl. The whole last weekend from Thursday to Sunday we went partying in Berkeley. Had lots off fun, met people and we danced like crazy all night long. Meet Sophie from Virginia this weekend too, we had a coffee Saturday afternoon In Newark like a 40 min drive so kind off far. I was suppose to work on Saturday but they changed my schedule so worked Sunday after church instead. Was a great weekend, can't believe it but it's already Friday tomorrow.

Fixed a gym-card at YMCA in Berkeley now, feels so amazing. Went two times last week and two times this week already. I'm surprised off how much I'm able to do, I guess my expectations of myself where very low, haha. But I can already feel my muscles in my arms, legs and stomach getting stronger. I'm gonna make this faaaaat turn to muscles, YES I AM!!!! Go Hanna

Other than that, Sofie landed in NYC yesterday, she's currently staying at Sarah's house in Connecticut and on Monday they'll both fly here. And then LA and Las Vegas next Wednesday!!! I'm sooo excited, been waiting for this trip for weeks now, so ready.

Went to the movies Sunday with my host-kids and saw Wreck-it Ralf, it was a good one, as usual I'm laughing louder then all the kids together but well that's me... Also went to see Flight at the movies on Tuesday evening, makes me feel like I never want to fly again.... Not to recommend for people like me that are slightly scared to fly!!

Yesterday it was a Au pair meeting at a coffee shop in Mont Clair, omg it was sooo b to the oring... Me and Maja came in with kinda big expectations to meet some new au pairs, a little late since she insisted going to IKEA before to buy some cheese.... But wooow it was not so much going on there, the LCC barley said hi so I took a bathroom brake and then we took off, at least we signed in.

Later on yesterday I went to play pool at a nice bar in Berkeley with Carole a guy she was meeting and two off his friends. One from Italy on from Dubai and then we also meet two girls at the place that we were sitting at the same table at in the end. Had so much fun, love to hear about other countries and cultures, so interesting. My pool skills are not to much to brag about... I usually played when I was wasted in Sweden and then I was awesome as far as I remember, lol, well, I did my best, had a great time though!

Colored my hair yesterday while I was skyping with my little sister Sara. She and my older sister Rebecka are trying to go here over Christmas and New Years but we'll see about that. The plans are a little messed up right now.. I can take out a week vacation there If I want to but I don't know how I can pay any bookings now since I need my money for this trip I'm about to do right now..

Anyways, I was scared about the whole hair situation I tell you that... I didn't color my hair for months just done some highlights to make it go a little bit more blond. Yesterday I wanted it all to get blonder but when I had the color in everything was orange, I was terrified that my hard work would go to waste (Drama-queen Hanna is writing), luckily it looks fine, not orange! I can't say it's a big difference at all but whatever, I tried.

Now I have to go and take a shower just came from the gym, met uo with Carole after and had a coffee. Tonight I'm working til 10 pm but might go out after not sure yet. No plans for the weekend more than go dance, off from work to that's great!

Hasta la vista amigos!!!

BOOOOOOOREEEEDDDDD

MOHUHUUHAHAHAHAHAHA












Finally Friday, wihooo!

This week went over pretty fast after all. The weather was crazy though, super-hot pool-weather on Monday and yesterday night came a hailstorm. I thought it was snow first, lol. Went out yesterday evening to Pappys and danced all night with Carole. Was fun, love to go out on Thursdays and just start the weekend early.

Just got off work, its only 5.30 pm so feels good. Gonna take a shower in a minute then get ready to meet up with Maja my Swedish friend and Carole. Going out tonight as well! Work tomorrow morning a little bit and after I might drive to meet Sophie from Virginia. And other than that I didn't plan, will try to get to church in Sunday and then maybe go in to San Francisco.

My trip to L.A and Las Vegas is coming up, time is flying as usual. I'm extra happy and looking so much forward to it because Denise and Martina my two German best-friends, who both lives in L.A now will go with us to Las Vegas. They booked a hostel too and we found out it's like 1 min from each other so it's gonna get craaaazy.

So happy the weekend is here, can explain how good it feels.
Cheers
peace out

Monday?
wooow this weekend was over way to fast
but now its just a whole week until it's weekend again, wihoooo
Got my schedule yesterday, work a little bit this Saturday but other than that I look forward to the weekend already. I'm so excited that Sarah and Sofie from Sweden is coming soon, I'm just counting the days down now, 19th of November they'll land at Oakland Airport!

I'll try to go to the gym tonight with Carole. I applied to get the gym fee at YMCA cheaper and today I got mail back and I can go there for like 40 dollars per month. It's very cheap usually its at least 100 dollars. Only thing is that it's a little bit of a drive which means gas-money. But I've searched for other places to go with not any luck whatsoever so I'm actually really considering to do this. I have to give my bankcard info withing 15 days so have a little bit of time to think about it.  I mean it's worth to spend some money to stay healthy it's just that I know that I really have to go there at least 2-3 times a week if it's going to worth it.

Well didn't sleep much at all this weekend to much party and fun and yesterday I was home later than planned at like 4 in the morning. Soooooo about to take a nap until I start working again. Hot nice and sunny out today, just went to the post office, 30 plus Celsius outside today, unbelievable  maybe swim with the kids in the pool this afternoon.

Cheers amigos
peace out

Good weekend!

Kids had off school both Thursday and Friday, we had play-dates, baked cookies, went to a museum and they even took a swim in the pool. Friday evening I went out with Carole to a Reggae-bar/club it was amazing. The music was so good and we danced the whole night, really small place but cool. Saturday I went to the doctor, took the half day but at least I got a prescription on medicine for what I needed. After I went to Emeryville with Carol, had a great time.

Went out yesterday evening as well in Berkeley. Was fun we did some different places cause the music wasn't so good, went back to the reggae place and danced. Yesterday night we turn the clocks back one hour so could sleep a little extra this morning. Was still tired when I went up to go to church which actually was great today. Got a lot of good words that I needed to hear!

Ate lunch with Carole after church at a Mexican restaurant and after I said goodbye to her and went  downtown San Francisco with the Bart to meet up with Sophie my friend from Virginia  Also meet her tree friends that also comes from Germany. They wanted to go shopping so was fun. Lots off good places to go spending all your money in SF.

Sunday evening, don't have much plans, might go watch a movie soon at the theater with a friend.. Happy that I was off this weekend and had a lot to do. Was kinda bored last week, everything seemed to be turning against me but for this week I have a lot more of positive energy!
