Falling in love – and some HYPE!!!

I fell in love with this woman for a moment.

She had lips like Scarlett Johansson and her eyes were intriguingly passionate about peace.

Oh and yeah – I’m at work now. Slept 30 minutes today.. summing up to a total of 7 hours of the last 72 hours. But it’s okay.. I’m not tired at all.. on the contrary…

I’M JUMPING AROUND AND I’M HYPED AND HAPPY AS A KID BECAUSE I HAVE HANDED IN MY MASTER THESIS!!!! Aaaahhuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!! What a feeling!!!

…..my 74 page accomplishment, my darling, my beloved.. I’m so sorry to say this but I’m pretty sure I won’t be missing you a bit!

Thesis – about surviving the last week.

Uhm, don’t ask me if I have time to hang out this week..

I really enjoy and love this kind of stress.. it’s the last insanity before the end of this roller-coaster. The craziest ride, the best part.

However I realized I need to get rid of those three 8hour shifts at work. Really. They will destroy the whole flow of the study-mode and they might kill me. Like seriously, kill me. And my darling.

I sincerely hope my supervisor decides to come back from his vacation and take a look at my paper for the first time. I’m hoping for Monday, otherwise I don’t know what I will do.. I mean, what if he never answers? Can you submit a thesis without the approval of a supervisor that never had the time to read anything that you sent to him?

It’s been a tough cookie to write a masters alone without a professor and without any information, I really hope that the 23rd is the correct date, as nobody really knows. I have heard everything from this monday, to the 20th to “I really have no idea..” from the other students in my class.. The 23rd sounded most probable as it apparently was backed up by some note hanging on a door in the institution of Global Political Studies, everything else is just speculations. Nobody knows anything, as usual. Malmö University might be the biggest joke I have ever been a part of.

I have enough energy to stay up some more hours, but I need to work tomorrow.. eh, today. Gah.. Goodnight darlings.

Oh, and I love my Moleskine diary. It’s fantastic!

Fika?

När allt det här uppsats-relaterade tramset är över utlovar jag ett fikamaraton för alla mina försummade vänner!! Tack för ert tålamod, ni är guld värda darlings!

When all this thesis-stuff is over I’m dedicating some coffee drinking quality time for all my patient friends, I haven’t forgotten about you! :)

Przerwa

Maanam – Przerwa na papierosa
Mental Cut (1985)

Working at the airport equals a lot of random encounters and pleasant entertainment at times, today was fun. Tonight I’ve been hanging out with my thesis, we are starting to enjoy each other’s company. It’s been a good friday night actually, almost as good as dancing. Almost.

Here’s a very old piece entitled “cigarette break” from the Polish rock band Maanam, not because I have started to find cigarettes cool, but rather because old Polish rock bands are great and this place is my main place for a procrastination break.

Enjoy, and goodnight.

Avocado?

I might not have internet but my phone does.. ha!

I’ve been working today and I’m insanely tired but after my 15 minute powernap I was good to go again. Things are awesome now if compared to yesterday, I love all the positive support I am getting and it keeps me above the surface in this dark ocean of conflicts, non-violence, activism, Palestinians, Israelis and.. why did all this make me start thinking about hummus? Yum. And avocado!

Ya, vamos, books!
