Marlene has been nagging at me to upload this video here .. and of course I will make her wish come true ;)

It's an old video, perhaps 2 month old or something. Hehe I was quite sunburned ..



Haha alltså flum .. så fult när en av hönsen får typ all mat över sig ;p poor chicken .. They're always so hungry !

Now while I'm writing here I might as well tell you about my day. Jordan has been talking about that she really wants a kitten and today Ann (my hostmum) thought it would be a good idea if we bought a book about cats. So that what we did, we were to Camberwell and came home with a cat-book ! We were also joined by Elisa and her kid Eric :) Funfun ! 

Hehe, it would be so much fun if they could by a kitten while I'm here :D . Well maybe I shouldn't have so high expectations cuz I'm not staying here for so long.

Tomorrow I'm probably going to the movies after I've been working :)
Have a great one ! /sandra

A new week have started and the monday is already nearly over. Working, Body pump at the gym, a walk with Elisa and her kid Henry and now working again ! Simply an usual monday. This morning it was guite cold but later when I picked up the girls it was hot. But after more than four month in Melbourne now I'm starting to get used of the changing weather !

So yesterday it was sunday and of course I wanted to do something, as usual. I had a date .. not with anyone but with Marléne :) our dates are always awesome ! We had dinner in China town, walked around in the city and got to the casino where we got members and had five dollars for free to play with. So I guess we took our "gamble-virginity" (?) yesterday ! Unfortunately neither me nor Marlene won .. but it was fun anyway. After that we wanted to eat something yummy so we bought candy and ended up sitting at Federation Square. Then the tram back home to have some sleep.

Before my date with Marlene I bought a new pair of shoes. It feels odd to walk around with "winter shoes" again, but after just been wearing sandals and so on since like forever it's fun as well :D I've kind of missed boots !

Hope you have a great week =) /sandra

Igår fick jag reda på ett dåligt besked och ett bra besked (som dock inte är säkert än .. men om det blir så blir jag superglad !).
Det dåliga beskedet var att jag fick lov att betala 184 dollar helt i onödan bara för att jag är så klantig så jag tappar min dator i golvet så den går sönder. Inte så mycket att göra än att lämna in den på lagning (förutom att köpa en ny då men det hade blivit dyrare). Någonting bra med det hela var iaf att dom var snabba att fixa den så jag har redan fått tillbaka den (y). I'm totally addicted to my computer here ..

Det känns såklart skit att behöva betala massa men det kunde ju faktiskt varit värre .. ingen blev ju skadad eller sårad :) och det är väl ändå det som 'är det viktigaste ! Och även fast allt jag hade på datorn försvann så blev jag inte av med något viktigt. Alla mina bilder hade jag förvarade på andra ställen som tur var.

Det braiga beskedet tar jag senare eftersom att det inte är helt säkert än.

Så vad har hänt här dom senaste dagarna ?

I torsdags var jag med Elisa till Chapel street för att hon skulle möta upp sina tre franska kompisar (som tyvärr inte var megabäst på engelska så det blev en hel lyssnande på franska ). Jag tog det sista tramet hem eftersom att jag skulle upp och jobba.

Igår blev det att besöka en ny bar, riktigt mysigt ställe. Kommer tyvärr inte ihåg namnet på baren eller gatan den låg på.

Idag har jag varit jättetrött så jag har mest bara varit hemma och chillat och de blir nog så resten av kvällen. En del av mig har lust att gå ut och hitta på nått men jag borde nog lyssna på kroppen ikväll istället ! Sova är ju faktiskt också ganska gött =)

Hare bäst :) /sandra

Nu har jag funderat länge på om jag ska lägga upp den här eller inte, men så tänkte jag att det inte är så många som läser min blogg så spela roll ^^  Aja Enjoy ;D


Lite shopping, billigt såklart !

Nu kollar jag på tv, nya säsongen av Jersey shore :D typ det ända braiga dom visar här ju.

Förresten så är det den 21 Mars idag, alltså två månader kvar tills jag sätter mig på flyget som tar mig till London och där väntar ett annat flyg till Stockholm.

Another weekend is over, and the half monday as well. Hmm so what have happen ?
On friday night I went to the city with Mia and Marlene and Mia's friend. We started at a roof top bar (very nice place!) but me and Marlene ended up at Chapel street.

On saturday morning I was suppose to get up at nine o'clock to babysit because Scott was going to some meetings. But Jordan knocked on my door at 8 o'clock and a good nanny as I am I got up one hour earlier than expected. Puh, my eyes were tired ! When I finiched work at 2 o'clock I took the tram to the city with Elisa. She had a haircut and I bought a jacket, a leather jacket (fake of course). Yep it's getting colder here in Melbourne ! Something strange that I've notice is that some shops are selling really thick jackets (almost thick as the jackets that we wear in Sweden in the winter !), I can hardly believe that it's so cold that people really are using those here in the winter .. ? not even in Melbourne.

After that I catched up with Marlene and we ate kangaroo at a restaurant. Then we moved on to a house party and later to the city, but unfortunately that wasn't the best idea .. At 2 o'clock we were pretty tired so we decided to get a cab to my place, But we couldn't find a cab because it was too many people in the city that tried to get home ( it was St Patricks day so that's why there were so many people out). Eventually we found a night bus that we could take to Camberwell. So instead of being home at two o'clock we came back to bed at 4.30 .. We were quite irritated and it was cold outside. Despite this it was actually a good night, random but good :) It's always a bit random when me and Marlene are doing something together, but  I guess that's how it should be !

On sunday it didn't happen so much. Me and Marlene woke up after a good night sleep and joined Elisa to a frensh thing in Camberwelll. Then a trip to the city but Marlene and Elisa were tired so they went home. After a while I decided to start to walk home. After approxiamtely one hour I catched the tram, I think it would have taken me another hour if I walked the whole way home. It was a nice walk with beautiful weather :) It has felt a bit like autumn here this weekend. A bit warmer than the autumn in sweden though !

Marlene :)


The sunset in St Kilda !

Me and my kangaroo plate. It tasted good but I thought they could have made it a little bit more fun than just a sallad, I mean I payed like 27 dollar ...

Me and Marlene and my swedish cider. Yes it's actually pretty famous here !

My sunday-walk along the river and a stroll around Rod laver arena :) (Where Aus Open was playing )

Enjoy the swedish spring :)

Yeah btw, Scott is on his way to sweden now and then he will go to america, and he will be back in Australia in one month. Accordingly next time I see him I have one month left here, crazy ..

Hej !

Jordan är hos en kompis för tillfället så jag sitter och chillar framför tvn. Tennisen blev inställd pga regn, trist väder i två dar nu. I onsdags var det däremot soligt och fint så jag och Elisa åkte till St Kilda beach på dagen innan vi skulle jobba. Jag och Jordan gick över till Elisas och Erics (Elisas värdbarn) och spenderade resten av dagen där :) Alltså en bra dag !

Fredag ju så helg snart :) måste dock jobba lite imorgon .. men på kvällen ska jag nog äta känguru på någon restaurang med Marléne, blir nice det ! Ikväll ska jag in till stan med Mia och hennes kompis och kanske nån mer, det visar sig =) Sällskapssjuk .. Miss you guys at home ! <3

Lindas bröllop, sommar-2010

Rhodos, sommaren för typ 4 år sen kanske

Idag är det ju den 16 Mars ! Alltså Ottis födelsedag :) GRATTISGRATTISGRATTTIS ! Känns trist såklart att jag inte kan vara hemma men vi får fira när jag kommer hem =)

Den 14 Mars fyllde även min bror Tobias 23 år ! ojoj tiden går fort, så Grattis till dig också =) !

Hoppas ni får en härlig fredag och helg :) /sandra

Nu tänkte jag bjuda på en video från Tasmanien när vi matar kängurus, Enjoy !


Ojojoj vad vi äger på att filma .. sorry för att det är lite uppochner och så :)

Kan väl passa på att lägga upp lite bilder också då !

Våran vackra bil bi hyrde ! Här i väntan på att Michael skulle komma (han åkte med ett senare flyg som tyvärr var två timmar försenat ..)


Måste vara ett av de sötaste djuren !


God lunch ute i solen !





Vi var ju till en vingård också !



Så det får räcka !

Hare bäst :) /sandra

Now we're back from Tasmanian, or actually one day and one night ago, so sunday night I was back in my room again.

The trip was great ! We've seen many beautiful views, been to a ghoast tour (a bit fail though because we couldn't really understand what the guide said :p a strong aussie-accent, or maybe it was a tassie-accent, I've never heard someone speaking like that before), sleeping three nights in a campervan at random places, visit a wineyard where we did wine tasting (vuxenpoäng eller pensionärspoäng ? :p), seen the tasmanian devil, feeding cute but also some weird kangaroos, looking around in the city in Hobart and in Launceston (in my opinion not so much to see), got free meat-pies at a restaurant where we borrowed the micro wave and we have had many intresting discussions in the car ! Also we had all the four seasons in less than four days ( okey, perhaps not the winter but nearly).

Two awesome friends + a campervan in Tasmania = SUCCESS

But I have to say that I prefer Melbourne.

I think my next trip will be up to Queensland to Gold coast and Brisbane in beginning of April :). I haven't decided yet if I will go somewhere else after that, given that I'm a bit tired of my weekdays here it would be nice to do another trip before I'm heading back to Sweden ! perhaps Darwin or Cairns ? well I don't know, we'll see what happens :)

Janet and Ann are in America now so it's just me, Scott and Jordan at home at the moment. Jordan didn't had any school today so we went to Luna Park ( a fun park). Now I'm tired so I will show you pictures from Tassie another day. But I can show you one picture I took of Jordan at the tram today.

Wearing my sunglasses. She looks so much cooler than I do with them ..

Soo, Have a good one ! Good night :) /sandra

Nu är jag otroligt taggad för Tasmanien ! Ska snart ta mig till flygplatsen där jag möter Marlene som förhoppningsvis är lika taggad ! Michael har ett lite senare flyg så vi möter han i Hobart. Kommer hem på söndagkväll :) Inte jättevarmt ute men solen lyser iaf, hoppas att det är lika i Tasmanien.

Bild från lördag kväll :) två härliga kompisar och fyra härliga ungar, kan ju knappt bli bättre ;) Flygande Jacob uppskattades !

Foto från tidigare i veckan !

Ska bli otroligt skönt att få komma iväg i några dar och komma ut på lite äventyr =) Behöver det nu känner jag.
Hare super ! /sandra

Jag, Marlene och Michael tar ju flyget till Tasmanien på Torsdag, Jippie :D ! och där blire fyra dagars roadtrip. Men min pappa var lite osäker på vart Tasmainen ligger (du behöver inte vara orolig pappa, du är inte den ända ! ) så jag tänkte visa er det. Innan jag kom till Australien trodde jag att Tasmanien var ett land, hehe .. men jag har pratat med lite folk och jag är heller inte den ända som har trott det ;). Så vad är då Tasmanien ? Jo det är en delstat i Australien, precis som Victoria, Queensland och New south wales (Melbourne ligger i Victoria och Brisbane ligger i Queensland och Sydney ligger i New south wales). I Australien finns det sju delstater.

Här har ni en väldans vacker bild jag hittade på google, det blåa är alltså Tasmanien !

Vi ska inte bara se vacker natur och jaga tasmanian devils utan vi har även bokat in oss på en spökvandring på ett gammalt fängelse. Awesome !

Så jag hoppas att jag har lärt er någonting idag iallafall :) God natt ! /sandra

Yesterday (friday) I worked one hour in the morning as usual and then I got the whole day off because the girls were going to make a movie or something at Ann's job after school. So in the afternoon I met up with my new au-par neighbour Elisa :) We took a walk to Camberwell to drink coffee and just chat.

In the evening we decided to go out so we catched up with Mia at Chapel street. We went to the place I've been to a couple of times before and we had a great night =) And long, hehe poor Mia who had to start work at twelve o'clock today ..


Me, Mia and Elisa :) thanks for the night girls !


This week I did some shopping. Shorts, skirt, scarf and a belt ! Saving money in Australia is not my kind of thing I guess ..

Today it's raining and raining and raining .. probably it will rain all day. But it doesn't matter that much because me and Marlene are going to have a "cozy evening" , Wiho, my first one in over six months ! I take care of Janet and Jordan this evening so maybe we will watch a movie or something and make a luxury dinner (some kind of "Flygande Jacob", my favourite :D I haven't eaten it for sooo long time). Marlene will sleep here as well I think :)

Now I'm going to take the biggest umbrella I can find and walk to the tram.
Cheers :) /sandra

Apparently it was the last day of summer yesterday, or that what Mickael told me. That's kind of depressing .. ? Yeah and it's pretty cold today :( and grey .. winter in Melbourne ?. In Sweden it's getting warmer and the spring is not far away I guess, the opposite here ! Well I think I will survive. It's not thaat cold, today perhaps 15 degrees if I had to guess.

Finally I've met the new au pair next door ! She was really nice and hopefully we're going out together tomorrow =). I had hoped that she was going to stay here a while but she's only here for two month .. that's a pity. All my friends are leaving soon, in the end I will be alone :p. Fortunately it's not that hard to meet new people here. And it's heaps of au pairs here. It will work out somehow.

My emotions are like a roller coaster at the moment and this week it's been to many declines .. life can be hard sometimes but that's how it should be, right ? But soon it's weekend again and I'm looking forward to it. And in a week we're going to Tasmania, I think we will rent a car (bus ?) that we can sleep in :D hihi so fun ! Road trip round Tassii ! Positive thinking.

Sooo if you have something fun to tell me, just feel free :D

xoxo /sandra
