Been a while...

So, It's been a while, but here are some new pics and new things from my exciting world/life in Linköping.

What you'll see here are some pics of Sofia and I attempting to make sushi. It turned out quite good...maybe we should open our own shop!



Life is going good here in Linköping. I've been working my ass off though trying to juggle two jobs at once, my reading job and research. Im soon complete with the reading job though, but it is just so damn time consuming. I've had no life for the last month, reading after I come home from work, reading all weekend, oj oj oj dåååå.... The book is due April 11th, and I plan to finish possibly this next weekend. Then, time to FISH!!!!

Im getting things ready to head over to Emån and fish for some sea-trout and salmon. Wish me luck. I'm waiting on some things to be sent over from USA (Ive bought things because they are SOOO damn cheap in USA! The dollar is super low now.) Just to give you an idea of pricing, check out the prices ive come up with below:

Pack of gum at the supermarket: $1.85
Bottle of coca-cola: $3.95
McDonalds Big Mac Meal: $9.45

Sounds a bit expensive huh....

Also, when you all complain about gas....

1 gallon of gas here: $8.10

It costs me around $80.00 to fill up my tank, and I have a Ford Fiesta 1.3 L, 10 gallon tank that gets about 45 mpg.

Here is a new pic of my little car. It has been a weird winter with hardly any snow. The first few days of this last week it snowed quite a bit. I was even out skiing!


Next news, TANZANIA! Im completing my itinerary for my Tanzania trip for my biodiesel research, and I will let you all know the plans...

Here is a pic of my office, where I work my butt off for this biodiesel-Tanzania project

Linköping Hockey! Awesome!

Well I finally made it out to see one of the Linköping hockey games. Needless to say, I was VERY impressed. I thought it would be the level of the Flint Generals or something like that, but I was mistaken. It was quite like the IHL (Detroit Vipers) however, just a step down from the NHL. Linköping has produced many NHL players, and I believe Johan Franzen is one of them on Detroit.

The game was full of goals, we won 4-3 and PENALTIES GALORE! I expected the Swedes to really crack down on ANY penalty, and it was true. At one point, Linköping alone had 5 players in the bench. Thereafter there were fights, goaling bashing, and even one of the opponent players checking the Ref...ON PURPOSE! CRAZY.

Im GOING AGAIN! Oh, and the arena is brand new....
