easter week 1, easter week 2

strange weeks. frst one everyone was on holiday except architects, but we actually behaved as if we were! and then it was our actual holiday week, but without moving from stockholm.
and so many things have happened. probably even more emotionally, so when i think in one or two weeks ago it seems ages...

- on sunday (16th) not much, i needed to sleep, rest... but at night jana invited all of us to dinner. she cooked for all, and delicious as always! (thanks again jana!) we were too many people to go inside someone's flat, so we just organised the dinner in the 2nd floor's corridor! it was not the first time they did it, but it was for me, really funny to see...
then we went on with our gaming tradition, but i couldn't stay long, i was too tired :( i just went a while with the portuguese, that had also invited for dinner, and home.

- but fully back to life on monday (17th). just to waste ourselves again at night :P sangria party! to try our new cumbres de gredos (as good as always, we are so proud, haha). and we stayed until victor's friends had to leave :( and another necessary talk (sincere and revealing, though, i learned a lot), and watch the snow falling until dawn...

*just a short reflexion here... it's very nice to meet your friends' friends, it helps you understand a bit more about their lives, and you get to know very interesting people. and better the more time you spend with them. but then you really feel it when they leave. it's a strange feeling, because you know that you're probably not going to see them again, even if you know it's people with whom you could get along well, and any intention of getting again in contact would seem nonsense. but... it's like that. and i'm not saying this now just for victor's friends, but also for andrea's, maite's, alberto's...*

- back again on tuesday 18th, i thought it was going to be everything white after all the night snowing, but not so! btw, it has been all the week so cold! -7º, -12º... and not so much snow on the ground, but frozen so it stays, and it's quite slippery :$ so what better than staying at home! i just went out to the swimming pool, and at night we organised a "meeting" to discuss about our easter trip, and although it seemed we were never going to decide, we did! (whatever happened finally is another story)
and a film all together in my place, and... not going to bed, but talking. one of those close conversations. and not sleeping either that day, kind of nervous. this damned insomnia it's going to bring me crazy...

- so when i was supposed to go to class on wednesday (19th), i hadn't been able to fall asleep yet :$ so up side down day. anyway, and maybe because of this, it was the "bubble" day i wrote about the snow, the walk and so on...
at night we had a dinner in lukas's (btw, with victor's new friends, that had just arrived and stayed one week) and then we went to allhuset, with its wonderful dj :P
and as i had got up late, i couldn't go to sleep early, again. so i waited, chatted, watched the snow again... :)

- and thursday (20th) was one of the best days in stockholm, and not only because spring started! it was a very special day for the girls. andrea, maite, rosa, belen and me. we organised a very nice lunch, and afterwards an event we had been waiting for since august: dawson's creek's 4 final chapters! everything well prepared and planned, we even disconnected the doorbell :P and when it finished, a bottle of white wine to cheer, and a kind of party. you might not understand, but it was very special to share that moment, for what it meant, what it represented :) we just missed laia, but she "was" with us!

at night the girls didn't want to go out, but i did. and i explained everyone why it was our special day, so we knew it was my night! we went to have some drinks in lukas´s and to vanilla club. we didn't stay long because it was quite empty, but the way back home was sooo funny! i liked that :)
we came back to lukas´s but didn't stay so long. it was funny that we had a "room-rearrangement", so half of us slept somewhere else! oh, and i did finally sleep, no room for nerves i guess...

- on friday we took it a bit slower. it was a strange day, too much of thinking maybe, but at night we watched a film in victor's, and it was just the perfect one for our mood, at least for andrea and me, we came back so happy home...
and later just a good night hug to go to sleep feeling better about everything...

- saturday 22nd, pillow fight! organised in several cities around the world, and here it was in sergels torg. so funny! we then went to have a coffee, and home.
and i finally changed my hair! purple and green-turquoise this time!
so surprise for everyone when i appeared later... we went to have some drinks in alex's, and we planned to go to grand garbo, but people under 23 couldn't go in, so we went to the hellsbar instead. and cute moments with my people, close conversations, silly looks and lots of joking. the night started sooo well... that i couldn't imagine it was going to go wrong, but it did. we went to lukas´s to continue with the party, but then i heard (and saw) something i didn't want to hear :( sorry for those i worried, and thank you for reminding me what we have here in sundby, we are family!

- on sunday i went for a walk with maite in sundby, and we bought "all" the coop, haha. so happy! so many red spots! :P
and then i think we all needed a family dinner, so we went to igor's. and it was really nice, even with crepes! (congratulations diego!)

- and we didn't do much the next day either (24th). we had to work a bit and then went to the second floor corridor for our gaming tradition, and to finish the sangria!
and then back to watching the snow late at night. cold outside, warmth inside. restored the previous situation...

- so the next day i skipped sigtuna, but joined for a coffee and chocolate cake with victor's friends! and coming back just in time for a wonderful dinner gerard's parents prepared for all of us, to meet us. mum´s food, and tipically spanish, so nice!
then we had a meeting in the corridor (odd situation, even more when victor started giving excuses in english to gerard's mum!), and we ended up playing cards in the elevator, even with chairs! such things can only happen here... haha.

- wednesday (26) morning, special breakfast to celebrate lukas's birthday! he was too german for us, he arrived too early for the surprise :P sorry about that! but it was nice anyway...
then a pleasant walk with maite, along the north west part of södermalm, going a bit through the north pole :P (we had this joke because it was all white and frozen, even with stalactites hanging from the rocks!). i then joined victor and friends to visit the architecture museum, and have a swedish lunch in östermalm's market.
we came home just to get the swedish books and go to class. everyday more exasperating! but i'll try...
back at home we invaded lukas's place to give him his present and be with him in his day! we stayed until victor's friends had to leave. then a round of good night kisses, and that was it.

- thursday was a bit frustrating. last attempt to try to make the trip, but it failed. and general indecision really got on my nerves. thanks that i found a calming oasis around, perfect moment, or quite a long while in fact :)
but at night i pushed myself to go out, and we went to cafe bojan. alberto, lukas and me, precisely the three most disappointed about the trip. but we had our trip to universitetet! the tunnelbana the best part, i told you, so funny... (thank you guys!) then we met everyone else in cafe bojan, and we had a lot of fun. and i saw some people i hadn't seen in ages, so happy! then the way back home was also funny, so many people coming together to sundby... we went a while to pedro's when we arrived, but not much. a while more at home, and then to sleep. great night, it was such a good idea to go out!

- on friday (28th) after lunch we went for a walk to stockholm. we walked along half södermalm and half kungsholmen, so by the time we had dinner we were starving! but after a perfect walk, what better than a perfect dinner? and completely satisfied and happy, back to sundby to watch a film.
i went to bed surprisingly early, but i was woken up afterwards, you know i can't just sleep normally one night... :$

- saturday 29: there was a metal festival in vallentuna, but before we gathered here to try andrea's -successful- experiment! then a 1 hour trip, a beer hiding from the ticket inspector, and a half-empty concert, but great! the place was incredible, a "youth house" so big, so well prepared. and the groups were good in fact! just 2 of them were a bit too strong for us, but sounded good still. and 1 litre coffees, a cosy corner...
back to stockholm and, although half of the group decided to go home, we didn't. lukas, alberto, heidi and me went to ace, and there we met 3 other friends from lappis! i really had fun, thank you for that night!

- and to finish our holidays as it deserved, on sunday (30th) we burned the last round. we first went walking from sundbyberg to karlberg along the lake shore, with really nice weather and views.
we came back and had a nice dinner here at home. and then went to prepare all the calimotxo for the 100 minutes game... part II: the revenge! this time it was "professional style", with music in the backround, the drinks already prepared, much better organised...
and what else can i say, you can only understand it if you live it! just say whoever cleans the terrace will be happy when he/she sees it...
as for me, i did my part! i had these feminine supporters cheering me up, and i couldn't deceive them! :P
and a sweet moment with andrea playing cinderella, crazy things you wouldn't consider in normal situations... and who knows what more we can't remember!

*btw, how exciting going back to the terrace!*
