This is not a Vacation, this is my Home

I have been thinking about the fact that I've actually moved away from home, Aberdeen is my home now, but I can't really understand it. I still see Stockholm as my home and even thought the grey buildings and the churches and the old university buildings I can't really understand that I live here. This is my home now. This will be my home for four years, these grey old buildings will stick with me for four years and the windy weather with the blue skies will be a part of me for three and a half more years. I can't believe it, can't believe that I will be a part of this for years to come and that this is my home because actually it feels like I'm on vacation. A vacation filled with parties, new wonderful people and loads of law studies because it doesn't seem real that me, Felicia, have moved away from home to another country, a country that lies 3hours by airplane from my home country. It's crazy. I live in Aberdeen, Scotland, and it feels like a wonderful vacation, a vacation for 4 years.

Lips up-close

Atonement, hot coca and caramel waffles. Think this is one of the best sundays ever.

Caramel waffles and Black shorts

After lying in my bed for more than 24 hours, since I woke up at 12:30 today, I decided that I can't mope around in my room anymore. So I texted my friend Olivia and it was decided that we were gonna head into town. At first the plan was to only go to Starbucks, drink a cup of hot cocoa and then sit there for an hour or two but oh no that did not happen because as soon as I went into town I just had to buy a Starbucks mug (the one in the photo) and my favorite caramel waffles (hello, they had them as mini ones in a cute little bag).

Then I just couldn't go home before visiting Topshop, H&M, Boots and a bunch of other stores which made me come home with a new lipstick (a plum one actually, really cool), a pair of black super duper cool shorts (H&M) and a big, pinkmixedwithcream sweater (H&M). Now I feel a bit more like myself and I can listen to songs like One and Only without crying until there's no tears left. I can actually smile now and mean it. I only needed my 24 hours in solitude to recover and get used to being by myself again after a week in absolute bliss with Edward (aka: boy with beautiful blue eyes) and now I also got new clothes that I can rock tomorrow.

Counting down the Days

It is seven hours since we said goodbye at that bus-stop. Seven hours since you had your arms around me and held me inside your coat so I wouldn't be cold. Seven long hours that I've spent going around town and finally lying in my bed and trying to watch tv-shows but nothing works. Time moves too slow and all I can think of is when we meet each other in 21 days on Arlanda Airport in Sweden. I want the time to move faster so I can finally be in your arms again, feel your lips press against mine and have your hands all over me but there is 21 days left and until then I will bury myself in work and law cases.

Tenth blog and still counting, or am I finally content?

This might be my tenth blog since I have a severe problem with feeling comfortable with a blog address for too long but I think this is it because for the first time I feel content with the name, the layout and the blog platform. So as I said, maybe this is it. As you can see this blog is under construction and not the least bit done but since my fingers have been itching to write I just couldn't stop myself from clicking the "New post" button. So...

Hi, I'm Felicia. I'm from Stockholm, Sweden, but the 14th September 2011 I moved to Aberdeen, Scotland, to study LLB Law (Hons) at University of Aberdeen. I absolutely love it here, from the crazy student parties to the grey houses and the small book boutiques (which reminds me of that I'm gonna go buy that copy of Wuthering Heights from 1895, or was it 1875?, later) but as I am a restless soul I can't wait until I graduate and finally move to New York City, USA, hopefully I'll move there with my boyfriend that already lives in the US now, he's studying at college. This is my blog, my thoughts and my life and there will be millions of posts about how much I miss my boyfriend since this thing with long distance is kind of new to me but it's definitely worth it, I would never throw away 2 years of absolute bliss just because we moved to different countries to follow our dreams. Okay, now I got off track, anyway, this is me and this is my blog. Welcome.
