L'obscurité est ici..

Salut tout le monde!
In case there is anybody reading this, that is.
I´d forgotten about this blogg..I´ll try to keep it more updated though.

I have way too many unimportant things to talk about, but I´ll leave it for another time. For now, I´ll just give my review of the Coldplay concert I went to in Stockholm on September 18.

The opening band for Coldplay was Albert Hammond Jr. When he started to play there was hardly anybody in Globen! (where they played). The few people there didn´t even knew who he was I think, because they just stood there like freaking candles, emotionless. Mr Hammnond tried to get the crowd going, but nothing. They played a few songs from their new album and some of their old stuff. When they got off stage, Globen was still not filled with people...



When Coldplay came on stage, people started to arrive! And so it began..and I have to say I expected more..

The concert was good, but in my opinion it wasn´t nearly as good as the last one they played in Stockholm in 2005. The reason for me not liking it is because they played loads of songs from the new album, wich I´m sorry, but I have to say it´s not good. I only like about 3 songs in it, so I wasn´t happy about them playing so many songs from the new album. Most of the songs were from the A Rush of Blood to the Head and X&Y. I really wished they would have played more from Parachutes, but they didn´t.

Anyway..I can´t say much about it because it wasn´t as memorable as their other concert, but they´re still worth seeing live..

Here are some pics of the concert...I´m off to bed now.

an update

Still don´t know who´s reading this, but I thought of making an update of my life...

To start with, my mum is now on chemotherapy because of her breastcancer..although the doctors were able to remove the cancer, the tumor was bigger than they had thought, which means that mum is in a riskzone of getting the cancer back. Because of this, the doctors recommended her to do the chemotherapy. She has done now 2 sessions of 4, so we´re halfway through..it´s been tough, but she´s really brave and taking things ok..she hasn´t been feeling too bad which also makes me happy. She will be finish with the chemotherapy at the end of june and after that she´ll start with the radiotherapy. However, despite of all of this, I´m just glad to know that this is to prevent the cancer from comming back and we´ve all learned to make the best out of the situation. I really admire my mum..I wish I could be as strong as she is..=)

On another subject, I turned 26 on April 14..yes, I´m older..wiser?..I hope..but older anyway. My darling friends are taking me on a spa day at the end of the month..I had way too many stuff to do last month and this, so it will have to wait til the end of the month. I also got lot of lovely things..I love my friends! Anyway..I don´t feel like an adult..I wonder when that will happen?hmm...

Yesterday my big brother turned 30 and had a party..it was fun..lots of food and drink! I haven´t got the pics of the party here, but I´ll upload some whenever I get a chance..

Right now I should be preparing myself for Tuesday..yes I know it´s not Tuesday yet, but I´m finally presenting my thesis then!! After that I can finally breath and be free!!(for a while anyway). Oh, and I finish this work this week too..the Spanish courses are over now! One of the courses ended last week and I thought it would be nice to take my students out to eat at a Spanish restaurant..(the restaurant has a chinese owner though)..anyway, the only waiter that spoke Spanish at the place is this really creepy man..(he looks about 45-50) and he kept flirting and asking me this weird questions. When he found out that I spoke Spanish, his first question was if I was married or had children..hm..=s. I said I´m too young for either one..=p..Anyway, he was annoying, kept bothering us during dinner and was very rude to my students because they didn´t understand everything when he spoke to them. I strongly felt how he disgusted me. The thing is that the students of the other courses also wants to go there this week, which means I´ll bee seeing him twice this week!!=(

Anyway, this was a little bit of what I´ve done lately..I´ll try to keep this blogg updated..like I said..don´t know who reads it but it feels good to keep it as a diary.

Sov sött!

Thesis almost done...

Back to English..just in case someone out there is bored and want something to read.
Updates on my mum cancer situation. After surgery, the doctors were able to remove the whole thing without taking much of her breast..=D She had a month to recover at home and now she´s back at work, but taking things really slowly. Not an easy thing to do because she works with kids..age 0-3 years old.

I spent yesterday and today finishing the last changes for my thesis and I´m finally done! I just hope it get approved now so that I can present it and get it done with! I´m also almost done with my last teacher trainee,so that will be something less to do. I´ll miss the kids though..I´ve had them as my students since I started the teacher programe. I´ll see them occasionally though, ´cause I work evenings at the same building.

Oh, I have something to tell. I´m off to Mexico and Guatemala for the summer!!I bought my tickets the other day and now it´s decided..=D I can´t wait!!Mum, my brother and his girlfriend are also comming along, only they come a month later..but still..=)

Then later in December I´m off to India! CISV has approved me as a leader and now it´s decided..I´m off to India!! We still miss one boy to our camp, so apparently I´ll be on the local paper..my boss wants to do an article on CISV and try to make some pr to find a boy so that the group can be complete. I need to study a bit on India..I don´t know much, but I´m really excited!!

I won´t be leaving any pictures today, but I´ll upload some later. I cut my hair a month ago and so far I´m happy..I miss having long hair from time to time though..

Well, nothing more to add so I´ll head off to bed.

God natt på er alla!!

Mucho por contar..

..y así se paso este tiempo. Todo vuelve a lo "normal" con la uni y el trabajo. De hecho hoy empiezo a trabajar y ahorita se supone que deberia estar corrigiendo mi tesina pero realmente no tengo muchos animos. Ya tenia muy descuidado este blog, pero la verdad no tenia tampoco muchas ganas de escribir. Pero bueno...empezaré por contar que porfin vino mi novio y que fue un tiempo muyyyy bonito! Se regreso a México el viernes y ya lo extraño muchisimo..despues de tantos años juntos, pensaria que ya deberia de estar acostumbrada pero no. Me hace mucha falta =( En su estancia aqui nos dimos unas cuantas escapaditas para visitar lugares, pero la mayor parte del tiempo la pasamos en casa, lo cual tampoco fue nada malo. Me encanto tenerlo aqui!!!Ahora solo espero poder llegar para verano. Me hace muchisisisima falta!!! Para todos aquellos que si puedan tener a su pareja cerca, no los descuiden!!

Ahora..a las noticias que han sido la razón de mi ausencia en este blog. Antes de navidad mi mama encontró un bultito en su seno. Nos asusto mucho a todos y la forzamos a ir al doctor. Los resultados que se habian obtenido no eran suficientes y le tuvieron que hacer otros examenes. Hace dos semanas nos dieron la noticia. Tiene cancer en el seno y la tienen que operar. La operan mañana mismo, y realmente espero que puedan quitarle todo el tumor...mañana ire con ella al hospital y quiero quedarme a dormir alli tambien. Solo permiten que un familiar se quede en el hospital con ella, asi que no se se si me quedo yo o mi hermano mayor. Tengo mucho miedo...mi mama siempre ha sido una mujer muy sana. No bebe, no fuma, come bien, se cuida..todo..y aún asi..cancer. El doctor nos dijo que realmente no se sabe del todo pq sale esto, pero si que una de cada 10 mujeres esta en riesgo de tener cancer.
El hecho que mi novio haya estado aqui cuando recibimos la noticia ayudo mucho..fue un apoyo muy grande..no solo para mi sino para la familia entera. Se que no fue facil para el, pues su familia tambien esta pasando por una crisis con la enfermedad de su hermano. La enfermedad de su hermano y de mi mama es algo que aún no puedo creer..aveces se siente tan irreal...estoy muy agradecida con mis amigos aqui quienes me han estado apoyando todo este tiempo...enserio, nunca he tenido mucha suerte con los amigos, pero esta vez creo que me saque la loteria. Los quiero muchisimo a todos!

Aparte de esto, ya volvi a la uni..tengo clases diario, lo cual hizo que este semestre no pueda trabajar tanto..y necesito dinero..=( Como espero que mi mama salga bien de la operación, espero que ella también pueda viajar con nosotros (mi hermano chico, su novia y yo) a México para este verano. Si guarda el reposo que le pidieron, se cuida y la radioterapia sale bien, están seguros de que el cancer desaparecera...pero estara bajo estricta vigilancia almenos por los siguientes 10 años.

Bueno..creo que debo seguir con mi tesina....la tutora, quien por cierto nunca pense que me fuera a caer taaaaannn mal!! Enserio...no hay palabras para describirla..pero bueno..la tutora quiere la tesina para mañana, asi que mejor sigo escribiendo.

Luego escribo sobre la operación y de cosas más divertida..de momento me siento demasiado pesimista.
Solo dejaré una foto que me da un poco de alegria.
