Schananagins!
Well, nothing too exciting atm!
I have just been doing lots of school work and hanging out with the people from Russia mostly as we are pretty close now! I have a friend named Maria who is originally from Macedonia, but she moved to Sweden seven years ago and lives here now, she is super cool and I love her. She calls me sexy Amie, lol.
We had a big party at Maria’s house last Saturday to reunite lots of Russian people and a few other friends! Jessica and Camilla came which was nice since I hadnt seen them almost since I got her the first week! 
Rainer also came which was very nice, but he was super drunk so it was also very hilarious! I also went to International Pub on Thursday, I dressed up super nice, you will have to see pictures on Facebook, you wont even BELIEVE that it is me LOL.
The following weekend, or this past weekend, I was just in Svanstien near the Finnish border past the polar circle, but we could literally see Finland from the other side of the river, it was like, HI FINLAND! But, I have already been there anyways. But yes, the snowboarding was excellent! Knee-deep powder and just the greatest slopes! It was much better than I expected for a Swedish Mountain, but snowboarding in the polar circle is pretty darn cool.
Other than that, I have most of this week free to work on homework and clean and whatever else. Had a good hang out with Rainer yesterday and he showed me the coolest series called Californication, HILARIOUS. I also saw Not so Spanish Eric as we call him and talked with him for a bit! Later on, we went to Deborah’s, who was my roommate in Russia, for a Jewish Easter, which was really cool! I had a good time and we talked about a lot of interesting political issues between israel and the middle east as we had a friend originally from Pakistan there to tell us about all the crazy stuff going on. It was kind of scary, but very interesting to hear.
Not too much more, I will go to IKSU today I think and then just work on my reports! Miss you all!
Amie
