Snökaos! Snow chaos in Skåne..

my own personal kiruna in the balcony i think i have no access to...


i had been sleeping for about 40mins from 630am to 7+am and woke up to resume work for the presentation today only to get a call from Ingrid my crazy funny classmate at IKDC who was part of the crew that dressed Alec up as a nun in Milan last year... i thought i was late for presentation or something but thankfully it was news that the presentation today was cancelled due to extreme snowing yesterday and overnight...it was truly bad last night trudging through calf-deep snow and getting snow blown in my eyes cos of the scary winds.

i was like shocked and then abit relieved cos i really wasn't that prepared for the presentation today and though undeserving i have been blessed with an totally unexpected extension. thank God. i will have to work hard over the weekend though, cos the presentation will probably be postponed to next week and next week Olivia will be coming to visit. haha maybe amidst all the cooking and shopping she can also train me more in perspective drawing.. or drawing in general..

oke time to catch up on some sleep. take care folks.

the minus something degrees days..

the days have been really cold.. from -1 to -8 degrees here in Lund.. and possibly getting even colder in the next few days..

the snow collector...


snow rooted walls...


first comfort food.. pork and cabbage porridge.. if i can't make good rice, i can certainly still make some decent porridge!


second comfort food...stirfried mushrooms, tomatoes and zucchini tossed in olive oil with pasta.. oke but zucchini tastes kinda weird when cooked so better to just put it in in the end i think..


marta and the risotto.. there's story behind this: i was cycling home today after swedish language class and on the way home in the cold i was just planning out what to cook for dinner and feeling sickish and tired already.. i arrived back at Sparta, parked and locked my bike, and headed straight into my room but soon after Marta was at my door and told me that she had made dinner and i had a share!! wow what a blessing i thought, that was exactly what i needed at that moment. warm, yummy, risotto!! best comfort food ever... thank God for Marta and her wonderful risotto!


satisfaction... mrmm!

det snöar!! it's snowing!!

22nd january 2007

i woke up this morning feeling particularly cold in my overly big and underheated room and also with a funny feeling that i couldn't quite identify. and then i was a little late heading out to our swedish language class the the folk universitet but in my slowness i looked up at the sky when i was unlocking my bike and wow, snow siah!! happiness and joy. this is more like winter!! it was wonderful, couldn't stop staring at the falling snowflakes. kept looking out the window during swedish class as the snow started really falling.


first signs of snow...


and the bushes fluffed up with white..


my magical tree outside the AF building in a different light.. snow covered.


snowtracks..


more snowtracks..


my snowtrackmaker..


my bike *kenah frozen after i got out from IKDC (Ingvar Kamprad Design Centrum) today and i had to push, drag, carry it all the way back to Sparta. it was quite *jialats.. i hope it will work oke tomorrow..


*kenah - got (usually in a bad sense)
*jialats - describes a really bad situation, it's actually just [jialat] but we sometimes pluralify everything for fun.
