Kimchi's point of view

Me and my lovely girl in Busan, Korea

I realized that I've been really bad on updating what I've been up to since I moved back to Jönköping. So if you haven’t figured I've been to busy. But here comes a short summary of what I've done. First of all I've been engaged in the IA, so the whole first week I just was with international students, had a great welcome party and dinner, and also a contact person mingle and some other stuff. Thanks to this I've got to meet new people especially got to know my other half from India little miss Bidita my partner in crime haha :P...After the international students kick off was done, PP's kick of started, so then I also was engaged with BC again, and that has been nice getting to know the new crew and see what a great job they are doing. So we've been working together, had beer-pong, sittning and mingles been super fun. Beside all of the kick offs and what comes with them, I've started school, and it's going to be an interesting semester with a lot of school work, despite school I've been looking for work and a new apartment, and the job part is fixed. Hmm what more? oh yeah I've meet some dear old friends, that has been fun and then, have even had a trejt ( aka date with 2 guy friends at the same time )  helped some friends with some problems...Yeah guess that is it, expect all the nights out haha .

Every day you learn something new, but today I got a hard reminder of how unfair life can be. Nothing has personally happened to me but to a person very close to me, a person that I really care about and will do my best to be there for, especially during this hard time. Yes today’s lesson has been that you shouldn’t take life or your loved ones for granted, you never know what tomorrow brings.

For you: I wish that the memories of the fun you shared will fill your heart and ease your pain! And once again Im so sorry for your loss.

This song is just perfect for me right now, this past weeks has been full of problems and hard decisions to make. But now I’m getting some control over it, just the way I like it. But one thing is for sure, feelings are hard things to deal with, especially when you don’t know what you want and everything seems to have a bad timing.  And with this I would like to get this clear; 

 " I once thought that we were starting to build something strong, but I wont put up with it anymore, so don't call me when you're lonely again and if you get hurt again, just remember that you asked for it!"
  

Ne-yo Lonely again

Last night I saw the movie Buried, and sorry but I have to say it was one of the most boring movies ever. Sure Ryan Reynolds did a good job, but was so boring watching a movie that is only played in a box.

Wiiihoo, finally Im soon going to be reunited with my Shara, little miss Spicy. I've missed her so much and she is now on her way back from her ski trip in France. Haha Can’t wait til she gets home!♥

Wiihoo just found out that I am going to get my money from CSN after all. They are so nice, even though the still haven’t got my grades from last semester because of the stupid system KHU & HJ has, they have made an exception for me. So damn happy, now I only have to pass all courses for this semester and finish my summer courses from last year. But still thsnk you, thank you, thsnk you CSN, you made my mounth !!

I have now finally, (like one year later) seen the movie Takers. There is a lot of famous names in this movie and it's Chris Browns first "action" movie. In my opinion, usually when a movie has got so many famous names, it means that the story isn’t that good and they are trying to make it better by the stars. But I was actually surprised, because the movie was good.

A song that has become quit famous from Keri Hilson's new album No boys aloud, is Pretty Girl Rock. And I think it's a nice song, that celebrates a girls beauty and that you should be proud of it. I also like the way she did the music video, as she is portraying famous women from 1920- today. The women are Josephine Baker  (1920s), Dorothy Dandridge (1930s), The Andrews Sisters (1940s), Diana Ross and The Supremes (1950s -1960s),  Donna Summer (1970s), Janet Jackson (1980s), T-Boz from TLC (1990s) and finally herself (2010)

Yesterday was my first night "working" as a member of the IA, and it was a lot of fun. Did all the things I like to do, decorating the event, welcoming the guest and then mingling. So was a lot of fun yday even though I was super tired. I met a lot of new friends from different countries and think this semester with the IA is going to be awesome even though I'm going to miss Elin as a boss.

I've now been back in Jönköpng for about 24h and already done so much.

Yesterday night,  I went to 59:an and met up with some old friends. Was really nice, got to finally play Tekken 6 with Popeye, got to see there awesome Tv screen again and catch up with all of them. Had a nice chat with Christian and his girlfriend about their year abroad and also with the guy who is going to study at KHU this semester. And today I've settled down in the apartment, packet up some more stuff, and as we say in Swedish Storhandlat aka bought enough food for a month. So in other words have been in the kitchen for a couple of hours, packing up, re packing, organizing the kitchen and cooking. Had a hard time figuring out what to make as there were to many options, but did Chili Con Carne, that was really good as I haven’t eaten that since I left to go to Korea. I also visited my school and met a lot of old friends, also went to The IA and helped Elin out, and now it's decided that I’m the new Integration Coordinator  :D, haha hope I'll do a good job. But now I have to get ready, because we are having a Welcome Party for all new International Students! Going to be fun fun fun!

Wiihoo, it's finally time for my next stop. Guess to where? Yupp my beloved home, Jönköping !!..So now it's me, my over packed car against the Swedish winter weather that is messing up the roads. But it's going to be fun driving again, haven’t done it since last summer but sucks to drive when it's this kind of crazy weather but then again can't wait to be back in Jönköping..

Year 2010 was a crazy year, I called it the South year as I for the first part of the year was in South Africa and for the last half was in South Korea. So kind of suiting. The past year has brought me so much experiences and unforgettable memories for life. I’ve been through really bad times with personal depression and serious illness that almost put a stop for my semester in South Korea but I’ve also been through the happiest moments in my life that brought me back to life. The most important factor of last year is all the wonderful people that stood by my side in good and bad. Except my lovely family that is my strong rock, I especially cherish 3 close friends that got to my best friends, the way they have been there for me last year mean so much to me, so thanks Clara, Shara and Francis. I know in my heart that you’ll be true friends for life.

So what have been the best part of year 2010? Without no doubt my abroad semester in South Korea.  As you already know had a blast even though there also was some bad things that happened, and it’s funny how some people think they rule the world. But funny how a little girl like me can manage to break the Prince of Nigeria right haha :P… As I’ve said before, think smart before you mess with me, I aint a girl who just stands down how little I am, don’t let my cute face fool you to think I deserve less respect! Oh well but back to the good times, I got to know so many wonderful people, especially my lovely roomie Inga. I couldn’t have found a better roomie and best friend in crime than her, just a perfect match for 2 crazy girls as us and I think everybody who knows us would agree on that haha. Thanks to that crazy girl who always hurt herself and got bruises in strange places I everyday got to laugh my ass of and that sometimes almost killed me haha. Except from her I also got to know my other girlies Jenni,Jennifer, Sofia, Audrey, Jiwon and of course Miss K from before. Had a blast with all of you. And for the guys I’ll truly will miss Paul (my favorite crazy man), Johannes ( my Nutella buddy), Philipp ( my own Mr 305), Jerry ( my all time favorite dancer) and of course Tui ( my own agent) ! There are so many more people I will miss but just wrote the absolute closest. And to sum it up, yes 2010 will be hard to top, but I’ll do my best to in this year, 2011 live the life I love, love the life I live. So you’ll see Kimchi graduating, working, doing crazy stuff, getting more tattoos and traveling all over the world this year!
