15.6.09 Flying home to Sweden
So it´s time to go back to my other home-country, Sweden. I don´t know how I feel about this...again! I´ll miss Slovenia and it´s just "more summer" there...or here (I´m still here) but I´m looking forward seeing my parents and friends. And of course: I can´t wait to cuddle up in the sofa with my wonderful dog, who still resides with my parents in Sweden. I´m now sitting in a coffee-shop in the airport, Brnik, Ljubljana. I´ve just checked in my bagage and there was this queer little lady. She asked me where I was going and when I answered she looked confused so I asked very polite if there was a problem. And then she replied very polite that she wished both me and my bagage were in hell! Ok, I admit, those might not have been her exact words but if her facial expression could be put into words that´s what would come out of her mouth! Bacause she was definitely thinking it!
I am but a drop in the bucket...
After a wonderful and exiting summer week in Portoroz, it was time for me to go home to Ljubljana (my other hometown in Slovenia). Caught a train from Koper to Ljubljana where I had to wait three hours for my final destination. I bought along one of my favourite novels "Dracula" by Bram Stoker and when I grew tired of watching other passengers stressing through the train I started to read. It´s always the same reaction: people think you´re a little bit "off" if you read these kinds of books. I mean that you really enjoy murders, graveyards, bood and always have a hidden desire of doing something really wicked! It´s like: "Should I sit next to this wacko who reads "Dracula" (note. the seat next to me is the only one availabe left on the whole train) or should I just stand?". Ok, I might admit that "Dracula" is a unique horror masterpiece and is the most famous of all vampire tales and when it first was published it made everyone faint like Victorian-ladies when they saw an exhibitionist but today when we have novels like "låt den rätte komma in" (Let the right one slip in) and sadistic horror-movies which literally make you thorw up? Bram Stoker´s "Dracula" is a childrens book compared to what authors offer us today. "Dracula" isn´t a bit scary! I wish everyone would pull themselves together and read it. And for all of you who think I´m passionately fond of horror, I have only one thing to say: I wish you would take yourselves and your idiotic brains somewhere else! But that´s just my humble opinion and I am but a drop in the bucket...
Eurovision Song Contest
Everyone who knows me well know I´m crazy about Eurovision Song Contest. Yes, a few would even say I´m a fanatic. I would the say: Y"eah, whatever dude!" I´m maybe not as crazy now about all this "circus" as when I was younger when I bought the CD, the DVD, did my own point-boards etc. etc. But now that I come to think of it, I wasn´t just crazy about Eurosong, I as a person was crazy too. And hard as it might be to believe I´m a little bit ashamed. But then again, to deny one´s past is to deny oneself!
What is E.S.C. without my secret indulgence? Strawberries and chocolate.
Breakfast
Breakfasts like this brings my thought back to New York. Fresh bagels every morning, big red "Snowhite-apples" (hah! start your day in the big apple with a big apple...it´s old, I know...but it´s pretty good acutally) and a cup of steaming hot green tea...without sugar of course. Sugar is really bad for you. So why have it in things that are not so bad or even really good without sugar like for example green tea. Use your sugar-in-take for chocolate instead ;)
Venetian masks
Last year for my brithday my two friends and I went to Venice. I bought these wonderful Venetian masks.
One of my favourite dishes: Pasta with seafood. This is a tradition in our family, especially around Christmas-time.
A nice brunch in April with fresh fruit, juice, small pancakes and jam.
