6'2" barely with my heels on

So we are in 2010 now, I am curious about what it has to offer. I have been studying in Aussieland for 2 years already and it feels like 4, each and every semester feels like a year itself. So much happens.

My first year there I maid a bunch of friends for life which I am so greatful for. At the end of that year many of them left, which left me sad. I never thought that I could make more friends of that kind. It felt like poeple like Linda, Steve, Phil, Kristian, J-Lil, Jess G., and many others do not come every year. I was oh so wrong.

Let me tell you it always happens towards the end of the year, when you really get to know the people who are worth knowing and become like glue.

This year there were four people who stood out from the crowd, from all of the people of the village, uni and Surfers. Those four are Jade, Omi, Abby and Jase.

Jade and I have known each other for ages, ever since my first week in Aus, but we only started being good friends when my third semester began. Her and Shannon picked me up from Brisbane.

That night, regardless the jetlag, her, Jase and I sat at 21 Cook cl. talking all night, watching a movie (haha), smoking. Catching up on the month gone by. Jade has ever since been by my side during my best and worst times. We have shared so much together that it feels like a lifetime. I am so thankful for all of her help, she was there. I cherish that.

Jason, the Wombi, came in to my life when I first moved in to the new house, 21 Cook cl. that is. At first I thought he was some young emo kid that was a bit strange. As time past by, we got to know each other and grew very close. There were times when we were spending all of the spare time together. Jase has a special place in my heart. He is adorable and a very good friend.

Omi, was the crazy arab with ADHD; that Jade and I drunkenly decided had to move in and become our new roommate. It also happened so that Jade left for Barellan when he moved in. He became my new toy. Someone I could read easily and someone who listened to my orders. Weeks of hanging followed. I did not need anyone else. It was just us two. We had issues with cleaning, someone is very messy. I never thought that I would make another guy friend like that. Who I can trust and be so comfortable around.

Abby, who I got to know a few months before I left through Omar, has ever since that day been a massive part in my life. She is also one of the few new friends who came in to the Jade and Lexy group with no jealousy or feelings of a third wheel. I have felt so much love towards me from this Pommie!!! Well, what can I say she is my hubby for a reason!

My point with this was, that there are so many people that can mean so much to you in life, you can find them, as long as you do not expect that to happen, are yourself and just have fun.

Without you guys I would have had a bad semester, thank you for dealing with all of my dramas this year, being there and listening and giving advice.

Missing 21 Cook Cl missions

All the crazy shit I did tonight,

Those will be the best memories!

I just wanna let it go for tonight,

That will be the best therapy for me!

Now the dudes are lining up 'cause they hear we got swagger

Morning Mofos!

I am sitting here listening to Tik Tok, my fav of all times that so many of my friends are sick of. I thought my lil brother would hate it, but he actually liked it when I played them damn song.

I am safe and sound, back home in Sweden with my family. It feels incredibly well, I am now calm, not stressing out, have someone really wise to talk with and also have more time for myself.

Ofcourse I miss Aussie a tad it's unavoidable but I am very pleased with the winter here in Sweden, so much snow this year and I love it. Usually I hate winter, snow, Christmas and evrything that comes along with it, but I guess having three summers a year makes you miss the cold.

"But the party don't start til I walk in" - to Jade and Abby. haha

When the roof caved in and the truth came out, I just didn't know what to do

Day 1: Has only been a few hours since we dropped Jade at the airport, still haven't slept. Boys are passed out. Cleaned the house. Been to the pool. Need to do my assignment now. Jase has already asked me how I was going. His question was a little weird but then he said: "She is gone, isn't she." Trixie Jase. Had to remind me, didn't have time to sink in yet. DAAAMN! haha...From now on it is "The Adventures of Lexy", doesn't seem fun at all.

Allright enough of wining. Tan and org. psych. Happy fun times. Boo-ya for Lexy. (making that thing with my arms, Jade knooows.)

A bit too clucky in Leeton

Day 3 in Barellan, NSW. We are going home tomorrow, decided to make our trip shorter.

On our first night, we pulsed it up a little and hit the down town. We visited Jades grandma during the day, met the evil brothers. Shannon had some fun with the horses and then got attacked by the dogs. Next time she will have a shower. That will learn her!!!

At the pre-drinks we were at Jades aunties. While girls were drinking I was playing with the kids and the puppy. Not going to lie, I really wanted to have my own kids that night or at least work in a day care.

Then, Brenton, and us girils made a treck down to the club. Jade and I wore Cory's jumpers. So cold. All the way there the only thing we could think of were the toilets. Peeing has never felt this good before, than that night.

Our entrance was a little grand as well. Im not gonna lie. The public was mostly over 40. We went to those two old guys first, I made them scul their drinks and then challenged them to do Tequila shots with us. To my surprise, what we all normal people call Tequila shots, is half a glass of Tequila down here. It went down just perfect. Then the dancing with all old people in the world started.

I encouraged a few to dance and enjoy themselves. Forgot about Jade and Shannon, found them later on. We tried to request Sexy bitch and Smallville song (picture above). Did not work out.

All in all, it was a great night.

Jade and I became backpackers with a host family in Barellan at the end of it and Shannon got confused. Sometimes you just dont know where home is.

Quick, hurry!

"3x8=24, we are almost there!!! Booyaaa!!!". "Drop it like its hot", blazing through our high tech speakers, we have been driving since 3pm on Friday, it is now 6am on Saturday. Thrills!!! Jade drove most of the way, Shannon for four hours! Do I even need to mention my contribution?

Both Jade and I are getting too excited for our own best, Shannon is still passed out on the backseat of the car along with the Maccas wrappers and Bundy rum. So classy that girl!

"Fuck the astmathic. She has a puffer. Turn up the heat, roll down the window and cigarette me bro!" Two each later, and we are pleased. Time to yell out to Shannon that we are in Barellan.

Trip down went really well, we had fun times. Our first stop was Warwick, and must have been one of the few. Everytime we stopped at a gas station, Jade and I got ourselves in creepy situations. In the middle of no where, 12 year old homies flirting with us, BAIL! Next stop and old creeper, BAIL!

Also we drove mostly in the dark, therefore we had to watch out for the damn roos! Plenty dead along the side of the road and one very alive, fat and raging really close to Jades window. We figured out (while Shannon still sleaping, because she has seen a kangaroo before!) that if it would have crashed the crotch part would have gone straight to the backseat where Shannons face was located!!!

The drive down, scenery, was amazing, first off the mountains, so majestic that they looked a little intimidating. After a breakthrough and no more mountains. Just fields of different crops, the rich green faded into different spectrums of brown and yellow. Landscape, flat!

I better go and have a shower, I am the only one who hasn't. I stink!

Going out in Leeton tonight! Should be interesting!

PS I think we killed a cat! Sorry!

Such a big ego...

Once again I am at the library, attempting to finish my assignment in stats and once again there are way too many distractions.

First of all I want to congratulate my dear Michaela, who became a mother the other day! poppy is really gorgeous and I can't wait to meet her in November.

Going to Barellan on Friday, home to Jade's unless our plans change before Friday. Should be a nice week away, just to relax.

I better get back to my assignment now.
