Life as usual

Hi guys!
I hope life is going great for you all!

Now we have entered Mars and after this month I'm going to officially begin my countdown to Japan! It feels so close but yet so far at the same time... Hard!

Today I have had a nice day at espresso house as usual, studying Japanese and chilling out in town! After 2 day at home and going to my part time teaching job I really needed to escape to a bigger city!
So now I feel a bit more at ease after my cup of latte!

In just a bit I will meet up with a new friend and we will play some badminton and after that we are thinking of going to "språk caféet" a place where we can speak Japanese and have a coffee break with other "Japan fans".

Today I will recommend a Japanese band to you all! They are called Radwimps. They are really good and can be found on Spotify, so seriously check them out!

That is all for today, Hope you have an awesome day!

今日も頑張りましょうね！

Hugs!

Happy Valentine's Day <3

Hi guys! Long time no see! This will just be a short post to just re-start the blog again.

Today it's Valentine's Day and I hope everyone will have a wonderful day with all the people you love and hold dear! Never forget the people that warms your heart and makes you smile!! 

It's now already February 2016! Time surely flies by! So, a short recap of what has happened since the last post! 

I took the JLPT N2 test and sadly I didn't pass. But I was kind of expecting that and I will study harder and try again this year in December, but this time in Japan! Yes, that's right! This year in the end of June I will finally return to Japan!!! The plan is to study 9 months at a language school and after that find a job or apply for a vocational school「専門学校-senmongakko」! And study there for 2 years and find a job after that. So in other words I will go to Japan and try to stay as long as possible. I have no decided year to go back (permanently) to Sweden! It took some time to come to this decision but after making it I could feel that is was the right thing for me and my life became so much lighter! So soon the real count down will begin! Right now I'm doing the hard and tiering paperwork together with the company Gogonihon. I will do a separate post about this process and company later. 

Other when that, my brother has moved out of the house so now is just me, mom and dad left! It's feels weird but I'm starting to get used to it by now! So happy for him and hope he will be a full time employee after this month! Fighting! 

That's all for now! 

Hugs!

Airport blogging!

Hi again! 

Here with yet another post from the airport! 

Arrived saftly in Istanbul and in one houre I will borad the next plane to gothenburg! Have been waiting for about 4 hours but it really feels like no time at all! 

I spent the most of the time resting at Starbucks, even if I could sleep for about 5 hours (which is veary unsuall for me) I still feel quite tired... think it's because of the horrible turbulence we had on the plane!! It was the longest and strongest turbulence I have experienced. The worst part happen when we were eating. It was shaking so much that glases, bottles etc fell down on the floor. I was seriously scared at that time and felt like crying! Even if I generally feel that my fear of flying is getting a bit better this diddefinitely  NOT help the progress... So think that is the reason why I feel so tired. 

Also got to have a nice short chat with some Italian guys just now at starbucks, they didn't reallt know who to change the sim-card on their phones so I helpt with that, really nice people! 

Must say that it feels nice to soon be back in Sweden and I'm looking forward to start up a everyday rutine again! Feels like I'm taking the next step and moving forward again and that is always a nice feeling. 

I do miss Japan already though... even if the trip this time was more challening in many ways I really do feel like I'm leavning my home at the same time as I'm going home which is a hard and confusing feeling. HERE am I supposed to be??? it the feeling I'm having these days. 

Oh, another thought I've had for a couple of weeks now if that I might start a second blog that is more "professional" about Japan and asian culture. writning about Japan is something I really love doing so I sounds like a fun thing to do, and to get my youtube acount going again! So if I can decied soon you guys might get a new blog to follow to if you're intrerested! 

That's it for now!

Hugs!

Shopping in Tokyo

Hi guys! 

The life as a tourist goes on and I get more energy for each day as my cold is getting better and I'm feeling more positive! 

Shopping is a thing I do a lot here and the other day I had a blast in korea town! Me, Jepser and Martin when for lunch togerher at a korean barbeque resturangt will all-you-can-eat offers. It was AMAZING! But that day it was over 30 degress so we were dying slowly because of the heat... but otherwise it was good! 

Later I went around shopping and bought a lot off stuff. Half of it were idol stuff from my favorite band cnblue or one of my favirit actors! I can't really buy these thing is Sweden so.. let's buy a lot now was my thinking... my wallet it sad! 

I also bought some beauty products! Some a bit expensive so hope it will work! The hard thing about buying it here is that the staff will ALWAYS stop you and talk to you, recommende products and TESTING them on your hand without even asking sometimes... so it's not easy.. well so Swedish off me not to like to talk to the staff and just "look around by myself". But thanks to them I think I got some nice products that will have the effect I'm looking for! 

When going home some REALLY handsome korean guys where giving out advertising about their liveconcerts and when I passed them they have me some and an explanation in Korean then Japanese and last in english, so cute! (Yes I like asian guys a lot) 

Today it was Shopping in Shibuya agan and I did find some clotning at forever 21! Love that store <3 

I also found a present for my brother, only one for dad left know! It's my dads brithday today so will also talk to him on the phone later! 

Now I'm resting in nakano and will soon do some looking around and shopping before meeting up with Martin and Jesper for dinner in Tachikawa! And I think we will take som perikura and go for karaoke after that! FINALLY my voice is okay so I can go for karaoke, have missed it so much!!!
