Coming to Tokyo...

I'm now in Tokyo!
I haven't been able to have some time to write here, but everything is fine. The weather isn't as hot as I thought, today was pretty good temperature, you can say that it was perfect temperature.

I've done straight perm and shortened the hair pretty much, I've never had this short hair!
It's quite a good feeling, 'cause now it's not as hot as with long hair.
My brother did the straight perm as well, same time as me. I thought that it wouldn't become so good, but it fits him quite well!

This far, it's great, We've been around in Shibuya a lot, and some at Harajuku. We're planning to go to Roppongi Hills and around there too, they've made a new place there, it's called the Midtown. Many expensive stuff...

It's very good to see all the members of my host family again! They haven't changed alot.

Well, I have to end around here, but I'll try to write here again soon!

This far

It was some time ago I wrote something here..
Well, yesterday my youngest brother went to his figure skating camp in northern part of Sweden, today my second youngest brother went to a music camp, and tomorrow me and my closest little brother are going to Japan. And my parents will be home alone together for the first time since they got children!
They've been to Tokyo together alone some years ago, but never completely alone in our house for so long! For 5 days.
But I bet my mum is going to say "it was so boring without you..." even if she won't have arguing screaming kids around, because dad's going to be at work during daytime.

Today, I'll have to pack all my things, I've begun, but just with the clothes... And we'll have to buy some presents (omiyage) to some people.
Anyway, this far it's still okay.

iPod nano (PRODUCT)RED Special Edition

Today, my iPod arrived!! (^O^)v
It's an iPod (product)red 8GB, and JBL reference 220 earphones. I'm so happy!!

This Special Edition of the iPod nano series gives the Global Fund of HIV/AIDS in Africa money for each iPod (product)red that is sold, so one part of the money goes to the Fund.

the pillows

I saw the pillows 15th anniversary concert. It was a good concert, can't believe they've been playing for 15 years now! It's so unbelieveable... what a good feeling to be able to play in a group for that long, and still have a huge group of fans! It is also said that it was hard to get tickets to this concert, I really can understand.

"RAIN"

I visited TERU's blog, where he writes that they're in their pre-production period.
From his blog the 15th June, it says TOSHI still sleeps, TAKURO sings the song they're about to work with, HISASHI supports TAKURO, and JIRO also still sleeps.
It is fun to be able to read how they're having their daily life going. I hope they're will be able to come up with some good songs (^^)
Ganbatte! o(^O^)o

As for me, it is a rainy day today, the whole day will just be full of rain... (-_-;) so I'm not so happy about it. And (I think), because of this shitty weather, I have a slight head ache. I really head head aches...

I've started to listen to a new group, UVERworld. They have some good music. A short intro on Wiki: [LINK]
I like for example the song "Zero no kotae". Their new single "endscape" is also good.

It's only 9 days or so left, until me and my brother flies to Tokyo! (^O^) Can't hardly wait!!

@-->---


Around noon, one of our family's closest friend passed away suddenly, after being in the hospital for just a couple of days...
Sad but true, and unbelieveable, still. He was so close to our family, with the biggest smile on his face everytime we saw eachother, but we're only humans.

Finished!!

I'm finished with school!
I had some leftovers because I was in Japan and missed some parts of the History course. So I had to do two tests, one writing and one speaking. And I did the writing part this monday, and today I did the speaking part. I got highest grades even if I couldn't believe myself, and I didn't answer all questions to 100%, but the teacher said it was good and the speaking part too. So I didn't waste all the time for reading the history book. I'm so relieved now!
So I bought one of my favourite ice creams today, the Swedish GB Glace Magnum Strawberry-white. So yummy!!

From now on, I'll be planning the Tokyo-travel, so I know what I want to do and go, I don't wanna miss something, and I have a month, so I'll have to plan a bit so that everything fits somehow. (^^)
We'll see if I'm going to be able to take my PC with me or not, or I'll be borrowing one of my host family's PCs.

Aaaah, feels good! (^^)

"Blades of Glory" ....or?

Together with some team mates, we went to the cinema and watched Blades of Glory. We all skate and we all know that figure skating isn't like what they show us in this movie, so we were laughing so much during the movie. I think we were disturbing the others a bit... But there weren't that much people in the cinema.
But it was fun just watching it, some real figure skaters were also casted, for example on the top picture, you can see the talented and famous Scott Hamilton (Wiki) in the middle as a sports anchor. And I think that Nancy Kerrigan also were in the movie.
The picture beneath is one of the favourite lifting pose in the movie.

How would the figure skating world be like, if they were allowed to have men's pair...!




And once again...happy birthdays!

These were for yesterday, but I had some very irritating problem with uploading pictures, that's why they show up one day later...
Anyway, better late than never (^^)

Birthdays, birthdays...!

Today is my two favourite actors' birthdays!! o(^O^)o

Johnny Depp is turning 44 years old. He's the best actor I ever know and will know. Okay, he's very hot and stuff like that, but look at his acting skills! He can act whatever role the film industry gives him, and he does it better than the best! That's why I admire him so much. And his look is just a plus in the corner.

Natalie Portman is turning 26 years old. She's my favourite actress. I really love when she played Padmé in Star Wars, and when she played Novalee in Where the Heart Is. Soon I'm going to watch one of her latest movie, Goya's Ghost.
She is very beautiful, no wonder why she also is modelling (^^)

I wish them both happiness and I hope they're having a great time on their birthdays!

(Oh my...so many birthdays these days...!) (^^;)
