Hello! What has life offered since the last update? The answer is "a lot"! First of all, there were Finals. They were... there. And that is about all. They were not particularly fun but they still had to be done. My last Final was a Saturday at 8.30 am so I decided to stay the night on campus with my friend Kiki. The...

Hi! I had a really ambitious plan for this post. It was going to be grand and spectacular. But as Robert Burns so nicely put it, "The best laid schemes of mice and men Go often askew" (From the poem "To a Mouse" by Robert Burns, 1785) Still I will give you a quick summary of the past two weeks. Enjoy. --- A...
Hi! So... It was a while ago, wasn't it. Recently, I've been hearing complaints about me not being active on my blog. Yes, I'll admit it. I abandoned and ignored the blog for no good reason at all. But today is the day I, Hannah, returns. This is my great comeback! So I hope you are sitting on a comfortable chair and that you're...
Hi! This time it was a different type of fall then the one I talked about last time. I literally fell. Down. On my face. When walking up the stairs in Buchanan D. It was a graceful moment. Me sprawled out on the stairs and people rushing by to get to their next classes. I tried to get up, somehow got stuck and ended up...
Well hello there. It's been a while since I last updated. Have I been too busy? Have I been to lazy? Maybe it's a little bit of both. I would give you a quick update on what has happened during the time that has passed, but all days kind of float together and it's hard to tell what happened two weeks ago and...
Things I am thankful for: Having people that I love; having people loving me back; my mother, father and sister; all my other family, closely related or really distantly related or just anyone I consider family; mina fina vänner; my wonderful friends; my UBC family; music; unicorns; TA hours; sunshine; rain; the two Thanksgiving dinners I've had this weekend. There are a few...
Hi! Do you know how I know that I'm really liking it here in Vancouver and at UBC? I have had a week with midterms and papers but I still had such a good time. It has been stressful but every day I found that there was at least something I could smile about. Done is done, I'm sure no one wants to...
Hi I had a great birthday celebration on Saturday. Thank you all my darling who came and celebrated me. Extra thanks to David that cooked for me and to Michelle who made everything looks spotless. You both rock. But now. The honeymoon is over. I have so much work to do. I think everyone is starting to feel the pressure. When this week...
Hi everyone. I have so much to tell you and so little time. I'll dive right into it. Wednesday I had my first midterm. It was kinda scary and kinda exciting. But what's even more exciting is that when I got home it turned out I'd gotten a package from my lovely family. There were not only a couple of awesome letters but also...
Today it was really rainy. I had to do some scary things like write an important summary and do a quiz. But the day really was not too bad. Even though it was raining cats and dogs. When I got to my psychology class a lovely song was playing. It was a song called Lost In My Mind and the band is called...
Hi! Today there's going to be a super quick update because I want to update but don't really have time! There is a lot to do, suddenly there are midterms and papers and so on. I am doing the best I can but studying is just as fun as it's always been. Not really that much fun at all. Coming 2 weeks are...
Today was a good day. I was sitting on the Knoll with a phil-friend when suddenly - something amazing, wonderful and spectacular happened. These people (angels? heroes?) appear out of nowhere (read: just around the corner). They were trying advertise their cause and they did this with a BANG! Yes. They had PIÑATAS! Not even kidding about how excited I was! Me and...
Cha cha bloggen! (<- Would in English be what?) I've been so bad at updating but what can I say, must be a sign that I actually have a life outside of the internet. Which is a positive thing, right? Well, what can I say about my week? The good weather has unfortunately passed and it is now rather cold, rainy and grey...
Hi! What a weekend! It's just been great hasn't it? What happened you ask? Ok here it goes... Friday (after my last update): First I went to this great pizzeria called Pizzeria Farina with my relatives. It was so good, definitely give it a try if you like good italian style pizza. (their website has link to both their facebook and twitter http://www.pizzeriafarina.com/). Not only...
Hi! I have been so busy/tired that I have not updated the blog but today I finally am! There also is a lot to write so here it goes. First I will show some pictures from Imagine Day (because I read the user manual for my phone and figured out how to move them to the computer). Go ARTS! Purple power and what not....
Today was Imagine Day and it was amazing. So many people, so much pep and cheer and so much inspiration. It's hard to summarize but I had a great time. We were almost 6000 first year (+ some second and third year) students that attended Imagine Day. We filled the whole Thunderbird Arena. I took some pictures but unfortunately I can't seem to...
is an exciting day. Tomorrow will be another day on campus, no classes, but yet another orientation. But really, tomorrow is the start of my university days. So exciting. What I am not excited about is having to wake up super early. I'm going to bed pretty soon, even though it's still early. Hopefully tomorrow will be a good day but I think...
Happy birthday to Freddie Mercury. Google honours him with a doodle. That's all. Rock on ...
Hey! Yesterday was Saturday (and today is Sunday. hehe) which also was the last day of GALA. Our group kept shrinking for each day and it turned out that the last day was only me and Helen (our wonderful group leader!). But no worries, we had a great time together and saw both familiar and (but mostly) new faces. Also, we got some...
Hi! Second day of GALA and we had lots of activities. Some quite fun and interesting, some not quite as much. Unfortunately we seem to be losing people every day. Tomorrow we'll be an even smaller group! On the other hand we've been recruiting people from all over the place to join our group. They do for a while usually, which is fun. Met...
Haiii! So last time I updates was a couple days ago and a lot of things have happened since then. Or a few at least. So here it goes Tuesday night I was at a barbecue with tons of family and friends. It was so great seeing everyone again and there were a lot of people there that I know. Also, there was...
Last night I finally moved into my apartment! I'm going to make it so nice and totally awesome. But before I can start doing that I have to move my clothes out of my suitcases and into the closet! I know a lot of people are curious about my life here in Canada and I feel like I'm letting you down because not...
Hi everyone! I decided that since I am in Canada now I should start writing in English. Maybe. I will today. Yesterday I went shopping. How exciting you might think which I guess it was. But I didn't go shopping for clothes or shoes or anything you might think about. I went to the UBC Bookstore to get my books for classes. I...
Hej! Nu sitter jag här, på Schiphol flygplats, and let me till you, det är ganska fint här! Det sista packades ner i väskan i går kväll, ganska sent. Det kändes lite ledsamt att sova i sin egna säng en sista gång på sisådär ett år, men ja. Mitt plan gick på Linköping 6.15, skapligt tidigt så när jag kom fram till Amsterdam...
Nu är det ungefär en dag kvar. På fredag åker jag. Tidig morgon, så man kan egentligen inte räkna den dagen. Det finns många känslor inför flytten. Jag är:Rädd, nyfiken, glad, ledsen, orolig, förväntansfull, längtar men vill samtidigt att det aldrig ska bli fredag. Många motsägande känslor. Men det är väl så det är. Ett virrvarr av ovisshet. Men det blir bra. I morgon...
Sakta men säkert inser vi alla att sommaren som inte känts som en sommar närmar sig sitt slut. För många har skolan börjat och vi återvänder till alla vardagliga sysslor. Det finns också dem som har packat ner delar av sitt liv och flyttat till någon annanstans. Ett nytt ställe där de kommer att uppleva nya fantastiska saker, där de kommer utvecklas som...
Life is really just a long series of moments. I found a new favorite band. They're awesome. Now it's time to go back to packing and doing important things that have be done. ...

Hej! Mitt första blogginlägg. Varför skapar jag en blogg? För att jag inbillar mig att mitt liv är så pass intressant att andra vill höra om det. Jag kan till exempel berätta om min Stockholmsresa. Jag träffade mina barndomsvänner som jag inte sett på många, många år. Det var roligt. Vi är nog världens coolaste gäng. (Hallå, våra mammor kallades barnvagnsmaffian! Gangster) Jag träffade...
