It ain't ever easy, man. And when one thing really gets to you, it's like every other misfortune in your own personal little universe becomes a sentient being and decides now is the time to attack at once.
Nothing an Adderall and two hours at the gym on no sleep won't shove back into that deep, dark closet that is my head. I need to shower, I smell like a hockey bag.
Carefull on the booze cruise. They have a certain. ehm. reputation. here
If you ask about this guy and get free drinks (Most likley, actually)
You'll be fine though, just keep up with the drinking.
Don't forget to see the royal castle and Djurgården if you're going to Stockholm.
Real nice there this time of year.
Oh, I'm aware of the reputation (I am now, that is...not so much when my Finnish friend insisted that we do it). It'll be an experience, that's for sure. I was reading a book (with the lovely name of 'How To Marry A Finnish Girl') that said something along the lines of more Finnish/Swedish women have lost their virginity on those cruises than in all of Allah's virgin heaven.
I fully expect that I won't get buzzed fast enough and I'll just be extremely weirded out for a long time until I just go to bed annoyed and then wake up with the worst hangover ever. That **** happens way too often anymore.
The only bad thing about all this is that my time in Stockholm is going to be very limited - basically just one day. I'd wanted to extend the trip a bit more, but my friend has to be back in Kuopio by Thursday night, so I'll be left up to my own wits next weekend in Helsinki. First time I've done a solo trip in a long-ass while. The ***** about it is that my flight back leaves so early I'll need to be spending my last night in Finland in the damn airport.

I went to madrid this weekend and we partied...unfortunately what happens to me now is that I can't sleep in, so even if I go to sleep at 4 I wake up at 9 and have to endure the morning nausea, etc , that I would have slept through in the past

Sounds about right
I've never been on one of the cruises (thank god) Just start drinking before you get on the boat and never stop and you should be fine!
Sucks about the early flight though, but Helsinki (not as nice as Stockholm of course, but you know) is a nice town im sure you'll have a great time. Enjoy the rest of the trip and god help you on the cruise.
This is (unfortunately not a spoof) a realityshow called Färjan (The Ferry) that aired 3 years ago.
When it first aired (and I quote) "It caused a minor outrage when hundreds of people called the broadcasting company demanding to be censored, this mostly due to infidelity caught on tape"
I haven't seen the entire tape, nor the show but im sure it'll give somewhat of an accurate picture.
May it ruin every single pritty image you had of Sweden and it's inhabitants.
I must say, in our defense. The ferries do attract a very unique crowd, that should not represent our country or people.
Everyone has something to be ashmed for. ¨
We have the ferries where shameful things come to thrive.
Yeah, i know. Back when I did my military service i'd go 4-5 times a week and that was... 5 years ago. ****, i'm getting old (not really, im just 25 but still feels like it)
Just so damn swamped at work with these wierds hours all the time, so it's hard to find a good schedule to stick to.
I'm twenty seven and my life is in shambles. The gym is the only thing that keeps me from going absolutely ballistic and getting committed.
On another note; As an update to my post a couple weeks ago, I'd like to amend my formal proposal to have the world recognize the sweater dress as the second hottest article of clothing a woman can wear in public. I'd like to add to that the conversation the recently discovered bandage dress.
Ah yes, the bandage dress. It's a nice model but i tend to frown upon it, so damn easy to skank it up, but i suppose that applies to alot of female apparel
In other news, Im making risotto for the first time, Experimental lunch woopah
I'm not a person who wants handouts, but man, I hate how everything I want to do (including things in the name of self-improvement) costs more money than I'll ever have free to spend.
I sort of want to quit everything and just write. Of course, that's way out of my price range. Once I'm teaching, I'll spend all summer writing, so it'll be cool.
I will never be famous, but if I ever get famous, I'm going to put a provision in my will that says they can only make a movie out of my life if they title it "How to Waste the Producer's Money and the Audience's Time: The 'Seriously, Why The Hell Is This A Movie?' Story," if they make the movie two hours of slapstick with no discernible plot and no resemblance to my actual life story, and give my part to an Asian guy or a really tall, skinny black dude (in other words, somebody of an ethnic minority who looks nothing like me).
I would do this partly to troll the crap out of people, partly because I just think it's funny, and partly to tell the movie industry exactly what I think of them.
