What are you thankful for this Thanksgiving?

I'm thankful for so much. We don't even celebrate Thanksgiving. That I live on my own and not with my parents, that I have a job until Christmas (even though I don't like it), that I have a car, that I know people who care, that I know that because of some of them I will have it even better next year at this time because that is what I have decided - and they have to be patient because I can be a pain in the a** sometimes. I'm thankful because I have an education, that I'm in school and that I don't have to pay for the education, that I live in Sweden, that I'm healthy and ten thousand other things. I think I have to see what I wrote last year..

Black Friday is the unofficial kickoff to the holiday shopping season. When are you planning on beginning your holiday shopping?

I have started already. I have bought one present for my sister and I know what I'm going to buy for my mom, dad, Marcus and Kristoffer so I'm not stressed at all, what a relief! :) Oh now I realize I have to buy one more thing. I have to think about that :)

If you could change one thing about your life, what would it be? What's keeping you from making that change?

If I could change one thing I would choose the thing of most importance, The thing that would make the sense to me. I need to focus. I can't walk through life as I do right now, doing hundreds of things. I have to choose one thing and focus on that. That is what I want to change about my life. Because I do so much I know so much about everything and that is not good. I won't have the energy, that I have now, forever. Things might change and I don't want to ruin myself because I didn't do something in time. I guess I have to decide what I want to focus on. The first thing I have to do is to do things for myself, read good books, watch movies that will put me in a good mood, eat things that I like, sleep longer in the morning, get a TV, watch TV and maybe some more stuff.

What's keeping you from making the change? I don't know is not a good answer, because I don't know means I know but I don't want to think about it, or I don't want to try to think about it, or I know but I don't wanna tell you. First I guess I have to find the root to the problem. Why am I doing all this stuff? Why do I read too many books that don't make happier? Why havn't I got a TV? Why do I feel like I have to do all this? Why can I just don't speed down a little. Because it would cause me to think about things that I don't want to think about? Why do I have to learn more? I don't have to learn more about everything, I have to learn more about the things that I'm going to focus on. Nothing is keeping me from making this change except from me, the good thing with that is that I can change. I'm going to try to slow down. To have one evening each week when I just do nothing. Nothing but wasting time on things that I like. No school or work stuff. I still don't know what is keeping me from doing this more in detail, maybe I have to think about that.

What was your favorite class in high school? (And no, lunch doesn't count.) 

Textile craft and Music because those were the only classes in which I passed with MVG (A). I still hate Swedish and physics. On the whole I hated high school more than anything! The worst time in my life, hahah! The good thing is that I have the "good time" in front of me.

Have you ever had a premonition? Did you heed it?
Submitted by aynge.

I think I think that premonitions are moments when you pay more attention to everything around you than usually. If you do that your subconscious can like reach you and you "see" things you normally wouldn't. Earlier this year I dreamed that my friend fell ill, and a week later she did, but there was nothing to do about it, but I guess I heeded it. It was scary, I can tell you..I guess my brain kind of saw signs that I didn't and put it together to something to create a picture, I don't know. Your brain is a being with its own life :)

Who would you most like to be stuck in an elevator with? Least like?

Most like -  With my future husband (who I haven't found yet, hahahahah!). He is going to be the person who I am going to spend all my love on. Does it sound weird?

Least like - I don't know but I guess I would rather take the stairs in that case..(I know that there are tall buildings ;) )

Today is "Evaluate Your Life Day." So, tell us: how do you think you're life's going so far?

At least better than before. I'm going in the right direction, I think. I'm working hard to change my situation, I have a couple (read: A bunch) of dreams! :)

If you were going to write a book, what would you write about?

If wrote a book, or the day I write one I want it to be a novel. It is going to be about grave robbery, about white cats that looks like ghosts in the dark, and about the art of day dreaming. I have never read a book about that before :). The title would be: Giggle at Midnight - Or a Story About the Small Things that Makes Life Huge. By Maria Alexandra Bengtsson.

Do you consider yourself a hard worker? Based on what?

I'm a pretty lazy hard worker, I like to work hard, but I like when I can do much, and at the same time do as little as possible..:)

I'm working pretty (very) hard right now, full time job with school. We write about two essays every week, and grammar upon that. And then we read one fictional book, plus everything else that we have to read. I guess you choose how much work you want to put in, and sometimes I find it hard to do a lousy job, when I can do it better. I'm not a good essay writer, but at least I'm learning.

So based on what, I guess my own self estimation.

I have some things going on now, and we have to see how this ends up. Will be fun..I don't like to tell about things before I know something for sure..
