Hello Austria

Hello everyone!! This week we are free from school and I´ll spend 6 days with my family in Austria in a village called Bad Gastein. We will hopefully get some nice days with a lot of sun and skiing.

Here are some pictures from our first day.

One day at Sundtagymnasiet!

Helloo! I brought my camera one day at school and this is some of the pictures from that day. 

This is me and my friend Ia!

My school - Sundstagymnasiet!

This is what's welcoming you when entering the building.

Beatles did their first performance outside Britain at Sundstagymnasiet in 1963, quite cool I think :)

We have a recycling prodject at our school - for example, we throw different garbage in different kind of dustbins.

This is the entrance to our library.

Computers and magazines are just a few of all the things you can find here.

This is our cafeteria, which I often visit. Daim is my favourite :)

Some of my musical friends!

Emiel, one of my classmates. 

And this is me, Ia and Stina! 

I mostly play the piano and sing, Stina also sings and Ia plays the flute and sings she too! 

This was all from me for now! /Kristin, Karlstad Youth Council

Medicine Studies

I try to study, but things are coming between all the time. All afternoon, when I should have been reading about the heart, blood and vains, I found myself chatting, reading blogs and playing the piano. In the middle of all this I got a phonecall over skype from a friend who´s spending the year in Madrid. And ofcourse I´ve now spent more time talking to her than studying for the test tomorrow... Well, wish me luck

Michael Jackson - Tribute concert

Today I went to this fantastic tribute show once more.

Six persons from our school, one of them my best friend Kristin (member in KYC), sings acapella throughout the whole concert and you get really touched. Even me who haven't really been that affected by Michael Jackson's death.

Mardi Gras or Fat-tuesday

The 16th of February is in Sweden the day of Mardi gras. This tradition always falls on a Tuesday and is therefore with direct translation also called “Fat-Tuesday”. This day has been celebrated a long time and nowadays it’s tradition to eat a pastry called “Semla”. As you can see in the pictures it’s a big wheat bun with whipped cream. Inside there’s marzipan and on top there’s a lot of icing sugar. The tradition is from the time when Catholics ate a lot, and very fat food right before the fast would start. We still do it and it’s kind of a big thing here, everybody eat at least one “Semla” this day, It’s a bit insane but also very good!

This is Ida with one big "Semla".

Monday afternoon

This is where you can find me during nice summerdays.
I´m not sure I like the thought of sitting there right now though. I rather....

...join my little brother Teodor and his friend making music inside.

A day in school

Yeah, I thought I would upload som pictures from my side of the school. In my school (Sundsta-Älvkullegymnasiet) we have many different tracks or alignments. I'm studuying social science with an alignment on media and communication.

In this class we study the affects of media in society and how commercials really work.

After that class we went to our school restaurant.

The restaurant.

Of course, salad is important.

Today we had, chicken in currysauce with rice.

This is my hall, we're all the students studying media have their classrooms.

One classroom in this hall.

When we're in between classes there's a cafeteria where you can buy e.g. coffee,

I really enjoy that, thanks!

This is Therese, Carolin and Alice.

Another classroom.

I did some directing on our blog!

Today I also studied math and well, today everything went pretty good which made me happy, because math's not really my strong side.

So, that's it for today!

Bye / Maja
