My London To-Do-List

Mind the gap : En annorlunda reseguide

Sara Starkström

Fick in en underbar liten bok till jobbet idag och jag hittade genast favoriter som jag direkt ville lägga till min Att-göra-lista, men sedan insåg jag att det var lika bra att göra en helt egen lista.

..För jag är ju lite känd för mina listor..

2013-08-14 Traveling to the Chicon #SGCHI

Okey, yeah. Its not the 14th. I know that. But see, I had this brilliant idea that I would go to the Chicon and not tell ANYONE there. and its been killing me. I´ve seen my friends wonder if they were gonna do Chicon or something else and I just wanted to yell "Do Chicon! I´m gonna be there!"
But I couldnt. Because I´m stubborn. You know, because I´m swedish ;)

Didnt really get any sleep the night before, but Hey! Thats been my life for the past three to four weeks. But I´ll live. I always do. And you can get by on four hours of sleep. You can. I´m living proof.
But I did get about two hours of sleep before I had to get up and get ready.
Dad came to pick me up around 5:15 and drove me to the train. He was gonna wait around just in case something happened. And it did. We were gonna leave Arlanda at 10:20, which meant that I had to be at the airport to check in at 8:20. My train was going to leave at 6:10 and I was gonna be at Arlanda at 7:17. Yeah right. It was delayed. Several times. In the end it was 30 minutes late and I had just about enough time to check in and grab a sandwich before it was time to get on the plane.

And then there was the wonder, wonder 8 hours of sitting on a plane surrounded by strangers. You all know how I love that. Especially in close quarters. But it went fine. Though I must say that there were ALOT of americans on the same flight. I didnt know that many of them visitet sweden. Heck, I didnt know they knew where we were :P

I managed to work some, but mostly I just slept. I did get to see the new G.I.Joe movie. Yeah, not too impresssed. But, I guess there are worse things to watch. Like.. Twilight.

Arrived at the O´Hare with really nice weather and managed to go through security and pick up my luggage relatively quickly. Wobbled around for a while before I remembered what I was supposed to do so I found a information desk where I could borrow a phone to call the hotel and tell them that I needed a shuttle. A free shuttle. I love this country ^^* Free is good.

Got to the hotell, unpack everything, checked facebook to try and snoop out who was definitely coming and then I hit the bathtub. Several times that day. I arrived at the hotel around 3:30 PM and spent the rest of the day watching 2 Broke Girls or just lazying in the tub. Which was awesome. I miss having a bathtub :(

All my life I've been waiting
For you to bring a fairy tale my way
Been living in a fantasy without meaning
It's not okay I don't feel safe

Left broken empty in despair
want to breath can't find air
Thought you were sent from up above
But you and me never had love
So much more I have to say
Help me find a way

And I wonder if you know
How it really feels
To be left outside alone
When it's cold out here
Well maybe you should know
Just how it feels
To be left outside alone
To be left outside alone

All my life I've been waiting
For you to bring a fairytale my way
Been living in a fantasy without meaning
It's not okay I don't feel safe
I need to pray

Why do you play me like a game?
Always someone else to blame
Careless, helpless little man
Someday you might understand
There's not much more to say
But I hope you find a way

Still I wonder if you know
How it really feels
To be left outside alone
When it's cold out here
Well maybe you should know
Just how it feels
To be left outside alone
To be left outside alone

All my life I've been waiting
For you to bring a fairytale my way
Been living in a fantasy without meaning
It's not okay I don't feel safe
I need to pray

And I wonder if you know
How it really feels
To be left outside alone
When it's cold out here
Well maybe you should know
Just how it feels
To be left outside alone
To be left outside alone

All my life I've been waiting
For you to bring a fairytale my way
Been living in a fantasy without meaning
It's not okay I don't feel safe
I need to pray

The art of seduction

I wonder.. does that make me a writer..?

LOS ANGELES TRICON 2011 Thuesday

Dont you just love the smell of chlorine in the morning?


Natten innan jag skulle åka var det inte riktigt någon mening med att gå och lägga sig. Jag fäste ihop Michelle´s present, and just to have something to do, I made him a tac vest. ^^* He´s so cute.. I just hope its possible to see who it is :P Maria could so.. fingers crossed.

Left for the airport at 3 am. Loooong, boring ride as always. kom dit vid fem, precis då dom öppnade incheckningen. Killen i mitt bås gjorde mig uppmärksam på att det tar ca 15 minuter att gå till gaten så jag borde ha det i åtanke. Yeah.. riiight. för jag tänkte gå i 1h 45 m och råshoppa på arlanda -.- 10 minuter senare satt jag vid min gate :P

Första flyget var drygt. hade varit vaken lite drygt 30 timmar och jag fick inte sova. They kept waking me up. >< Antingen var det att kolla och mp3n var på, kolla om ja hade bälte eller servera en torr muffin -.- not funny.

Vi landade ungefär en 15 minuter tidigt i london och jag hade en timme innan min gate skulle stänga. I felt just a wee bit stressed. The second plane was better thought. 10 h and 15 minutes or something.. gah. but atleast I got to sleep. best way to make time fly. Its just that, everytime I oppened my eyes, something had changed infront of me. First time I opened my eyes, there was a glass of juice in front of me. Second time the empty glass was gone. Third time There was a tray of lunch. Fourth time the leftovers where gone. Fifth time there was a new glass of juice and some snack. and then, with four hours left until we landed I gave up on sleeping and started watching movies insted :P Got through the entire Friends with benefits and almost all of the new Smurfs movie. Missed the ending XD Just my luck. but I guess the little blue-thingy´s survive to live another day.

Once I arrived at the hotel they gave me a phone and I was able to talk to Maria and exchange room-numbers. after that i took a shower, we had dinner and I spent a long, long time in the thub (that reeeeeks of chlorine) with a Kelly Armstrong book before I went to sleep.

.. only to wake up at midnight :p
