Whew!
The hair is red.
The pictures are fixed.
Have been hanging out with Tom’s siblings and his sisters italian boyfriend who knows almost no english at all. I need to brush up on my non-existant italian!
Tomorrow I’m going to the unknown location (I suspect Italy? But why would the italian couple come here then? Hmm) and I will be gone ’til Wednesday.
Until then. Have a little ink.
Oh what a crap day.
Tom’s sister and her boyfriend is coming over from Italy tonight to have dinner with the family in Bristol. Everything would have been fine if it wasn’t for the fact that I screwed up with the photo printing in town. I got one set of the photos when I should’ve gotten two. One set for Tom’s sister and the other for Tom’s father.
To make matters worse, I can’t go out now to fix that since I’ve got hairdye in my hair and it’s… ORANGE. I dyed my own hair for the first time ever a few minutes ago. It went fairly well I think, but the dye is.. *ORANGE*. I’m going to look like a carrot and am supposed to go for a dinner tonight. I feel so horrible. Mostly because I let Tom down with the pictures.
I don’t dare to look myself in the mirror. I so hope the final result of this dye will be red. Otherwise I will wear something to cover it…
Disturbing horror graphic novel.
Mmmm~
Me and Tom went out yesterday to celebrate the fact that I’ve gotten in to University and also gotten the majority of my fundings sorted :D
Phil had told us about a good Indian place in town so we thought we’d give it a try. It was downstairs in a cellar, but had the airconditioning of heaven and decorations from God! Candles and indian music and and aagh ;__; So! We ate our butts off while chatting.
Everything is not good. Apparently Keira (one of our flatmates) just moved out. I had no idea before Matt told me. This leaves Matt having to pay £400 a month on his own which he can’t handle. So when I told him me and Tom are looking for a new place, he said that this was a good time to do so. I hope everything’s alright with Keira as she is such a sweet girl :/ Really cute too. Only time will tell I guess. For now, we need to get a hold of our Landlord. We have signed a contract for 9 months, but will ask him if we can be let off earlier. He can only do that if he’s nice. Otherwise we are stuck.
Also. What’s up with people always approaching me in town, wanting me to buy magazines, sign petitions, save children, help cure cancer, plant a tree for the rainforest, pick my favourite card etc etc. Do I look approachable with my big earphones on? *mumbles and goes to get ready for going out to town*
Went out today to do some Grown Up Stuff(tm), one of them being Bank errands. Apparently I can’t have a student account with them since I haven’t been in the UK for three(!!) friggen years. I’ve been here for almost a year, I have a set of courses ahead of me which will take about 4 years to complete… I’m here to stay! *sigh*
Oh well. I guess you can’t have everything.
Also went to the hairdressers to check if they could re-dye the red part of my hair (it’s gone pink. Shoot me!). It would cost £35. I felt faint. At that moment, I made up my mind. It was time to actually start dying my own hair, even though I’ve never done it since I’m too chicken. Will probably fail horribly the first time, but tomorrow I will go and buy my own hair dye and give the hairdressers the finger. Rawr!
It is so very hot here. I had to go home because I felt feverish being outside. Maybe my black clothes are enhancing that feeling, but you never know. Not going out anymore today. It’s a killer, honestly!
My tray to the tea set was broken when I opened up my bag yesterday. My candy was also a bit mushed, but still edible :D
Other than that, everything seemed to be intact. Thank god :P
Been talking with Tom more about seriously getting our own place. We are looking at the moment and are trying to get a hold of Matt to discuss the contract. I can’t wait to have my own home to decorate the living crap out of! >:D Oh yeeeess…
For now.. I focus on getting my comic/graphic novel thing going. Need to make one page per day.
Soon we’re also going to that secret location… I can’t wait. o_o
Oh! And might take up EVE online during the weekends with Tom!
… But my luggage got left behind in Oslo! Goddamn Norwegians :D
It will apparently be sent to me tonight or something. I am just thinking about the amount of Swedish candy in there… And the tea.. And the japanese tea set.. Grrgh.
Oh! And… New hair!
Can’t go out today and accomplish anything. Why? Because all my hygiene things are in the big bag.. I don’t even have a friggen hair brush! So I’m stuck here, with no clothes, no deodorant, no toothbrush… You figure out the rest ;_;
*stinks*
I can sit down. That has been a rarity these past few weeks (or something).
First, Henrik and Audio came to England and we toddled around.
Then, I quit my job.
And then I left for Sweden. A return journey of course, but a journey non-the-less. I was bracing myself for the immense feeling of loneliness that I most probably would experience while being away from Tom. It was like that the first time, but now, I had come prepared. Not only did I want to catch up with everyone and everything in my home country, but by doing so I kept my mind busy and free of the emo thoughts that crawl in when you’re idling.
The emo-ness came when everything calmed down, just before I was going to sleep. Each night I would just feel cold and incredibly lonely. I had three blankets at home, but it still didn’t compare to the calming warmth Tom gives me when he sleeps next to me. If I didn’t know that I would go back this Thursday, I would probably go mad.
During the days, I’m happy as ever. People are wonderful to me here and there are so many things that have changed while some just seem to stand still. I have been catching up with friends, with family, with relatives, with my bird, my house and my old items in my room. Been drinking coffee in the wonderful company of my buddies. Been roleplaying, eating pie, shopping, cooking, harvesting strawberries, travelling to different places, meeting brothers girlfriend, meeting my grandma… The list goes on.
I almost need a schedule for all of this. Tomorrow I will fix the CSN thing. Fundings from the Swedish government for my studies in England. Then there’s some more roleplaying (yay!). The day after that, my cousins kid will have a little birthday party. I will try to get my ass to the University that evening to say bye to everyone (squeeze some comic reading in here as well. Strangers in Paradise FTW!). Thursday I leave again.
That is not it though. 6 days after I’ve gotten home, I will pack my bags together with Tom and fly to an unknown location. It is his dads 60s birthday and apparently we are all going somewhere, but it’s a surprise O_O It is free too. I am imploding out of curiosity!
Yarr!
Sketches here. Haven’t had the time to sit down and draw. But here’s some.

So much to write. So little time.
I will try to sit down tonight after my LAST DAY OF WORK.
Henrik and Audio have been here for about 5 days. It was awesome. Been at my first comic forum. I will have to tell you about that!
Later!
