Personal shopper!
My dream has come true; I’ve gotten my dream job. I’ve become a personal shopper. No, not a personal shopper for a celebrity or a big department store, I’m a personal shopper for my family. SO maybe it’s not the best job in the world but I’m shopping for someone elses money and to me that’s kind of fun.
Since I’m going back to Sweden for two weeks on thursday, everybody is sending me messages about stuff they want me to bring back home for them. The dollar is really week right now and the Swedish crowns are doing well, so almost everything over here is cheaper. Well not everything but a lot of stuff. Some of the things I’m buying are Converse shoes, Ipods, magazines, and makeup/hair products. My bag is going to contain more stuff for other people than my things. That’s okay though since I haven’t seen my family and friends for 6 months. Hope this is going to make them really happy. Well, this and the fact that they get to see me, just don’t want to think about what’s going to make them more happy 
So if there’s anything else you guys back home want me to bring to Sweden, now’s the time to let me now. Tomorrow, before the Sweden-Russia soccer game, I’m doing all my bring-to-Sweden-shopping. Then I have a lot of studying to do. On thisday morning I have my last final exam. Marketing is what’s on the scheduele. Oh, and by the way, the final exams I’ve done so far has gone very well and my grades are something to smile about.
But final exams are not something I want to think about right now though. I’m soon on my way to meet up with some friends, that are going back to their countries for the summer, to say good bye and to have one last night of partying (we’re really going to help a friend pack, but if I know me and my friends right, we’ll probably just end up drinking wine).
So long!
….see, there is another thing to put on your future resume..”personal shopper”, while living in NY….looks good for sure…and it’s the truth, so don’t go spoiling it by saying it was just for your family….always always stick close to the truth, while embelleshing a bit…
…and now may I also add one more thing to your list…no silly not for me, but for your lilla MY…CVS brand Sleepaid tablets…you might recall we spoke about them when you were here…just a couple of boxes,well maybe 3 actually…thank you…and do not accept money from her, as I actually owe her money so I’ll pay you, on your next trip up…
…and hey guess what, well you probably already have seen it…
…Stockholm Sweden ,has been woted as THE city with the most beautiful women, in all the world…not bad eh, El Diva…
…but of course we all knew that anyway…but now all the world knows..
…notice I never said anything about your exams and grades etc., as it goes without saying…I totally expected you to ace them all…as you seem to have done up to now…
…and I am happy to say ,Nina up here, is doing the same…yippee for all my brainy girls…
…oh and my list for the return is fairly short…a couple of packs of classic coffee, MY knows what kind, and please ,3 packs of Knorr grönsaks buljong (cubes in packs)…and that is it…all the rest I can find at Ikea…
…and darling…don’t worry about your blog while in Sweden…there will be sooo much else going on…OK…just do outlines for yourself, and then write about things when you get back to hot humdrum NY, and ALL your friends will be gone…so once again..listen to sound advice…oh and thanks for all your kind words by the way…don’t really know if I should take you at your word or just smile and say…tokstollen har redan börjat släppa lös…heaven help us…and Stockholm…
Lots of Love.
…..just have to come back…the Boston Celtics won, they are the new NBA Champs…hip hip hurrah…
…essentially this country has 4 big sports, basketball, baseball ,football and hockey, hockey being the lowest, oh and golf is coming up there, even for the masses, mainly due to Tiger of course, and if anybody saw last Sundays champion game in that sport, it was sure to turn even the biggest hard nose to a hard core fan of golf…it was so good…of course Tiger won …again..but it got really close, and actually went to an almost never heard of in golf…sudden death….they Tiger and Rocca was nose to nose, at the end, and a final put had to be added…wow,which Tiger won…
…now the Boston Red Sox baseball tems won their championship 2007, and the fact that the Patriots lost the last game in their series and so lost the championship once again, many who watched the game, said(myself included) something was fishy, and that the game was rigged….so who knows…
…but right now Boston has the hottest teams in pretty much all the major sports…incredible really, but fun..and the only reason the hockey team is not going all the way, is due to a very very cheap owner of that team…he is much hated for his tight fistedness,which everybody associates with his faith,Jewish, with holding the team back and not allowing it to grow, as all other sports teams are doing,as it takes money to attract the best players and to keep them…instead he just keeps raising the money at all the concessions stands in the Garden, and makes his profits that way, screw the team and the fans… so he should just cut loose and sell and let a new owner take over…he has no respect for the team nor the sport, which is too bad, as the fans are all behind all the teams in this city…and ultimately he is hurting the fans here in Boston…
…anyway…so right now all of Boston is out dancing in the streets, but this little night owl fan, is dancing of to bed…
..hoo hoo hoo…
