Peaches & Pearl: Do not forget
Och kom ihåg: man saknar inte en haj föränn den simmat iväg.
Och man saknar inte en Ponny förränn den gallopperat iväg.
English:
And remember, you don't miss a Shark until it has swam away
And you don't miss a Pony until it has galopped away.
Peaches: Tonight
Så ikväll firar vi Pennys födelsedag. Jag har köpt alkohol för en hel armé, men jag är bekymrad över Pearls planerade konsumption. Ni lär inte tro era öron när jag avslöjar att hon bara köpte en liter vin ingår.
Peaches
English:
So tonight we will celebrate Penny's birthday. I have bought alcohol for a whole army, but I am however concerned about Pearls planned alcohol consumption. I bet you won't believe your ears when I'm revealing that she did only buy one liter of wine.

Peaches & Pearl taks about pregnancy
Peaches: Om jag blev gravid skulle jag skriva en lapp till min man där det står.
Pearl: Hej då, vi ses om ett tag.
Peaches: Nej, jag tänkte skriva: när jag skriker, skriker jag inte på dig utan bredvid dig, jag älskar dig snälla lämna mig inte.
Pearl: Ja ha.
English
Peaches: If I got pregnant I would write a note to my husband and tell him.
Pearl: Goodbye, I see you in a while.
Peaches: No, I was thinking: when I yell I don't yell at you I yell next to you, I love you please don't leave me.
Pearl: Oh, okey
Peaches& Pearl: Obsessed
Pearl: Hej kompis...de säger det på TV...
Peaches: När har du sett en turk på TV som inte är Gazaturkar?
Pearl: Det är ingen turk...det är en tecknad figur.
English:
Pearl: Hey buddy...they say that on TV...
Peaches: When have you seen a turk on TV which wasn't Gaza turks?
Pearl: It's not a turk....it's a cartoon character.
Peaches: Enjoy!

Pearl: Oasis today (3.5 hours to go)
Time to start drinking and hopefully Liam and Noel will be rude cunts at the concert that is what I expect. A little fight would be splendid and I'm not being sarcastic. I like them because their behavior because they can get away with it and we just need to roll with it.
Pearl
Pearl: Oasis today (4.5 hours to go)
Me and Prudence (Peaches unfortunately needed to cancel Oasis so Prudence will join me instead) just been discussing how to sneak in beverage in to the concert.
We think they might not search us, just the bags so we been considering:
- in the boots
- between the legs
- by the shoulder blade(we heard from an well-experienced person they never search there)
Our just somewhere under the clothes and if they will search us we say ”Oh I forgot about that"
Pearl
Pearl: Oasis today (7.5 hours to go)

Due to her very enthusiastic update of our blog, I draw the conclusion that obviously last night, Pearl was either:
a) Bored as hell
b) Very overly excited about going to see Oasis.
Peaches
Pearl: Oasis tomorrow (I don't usually acknowledge the day after today until I slept) (17 hours to go)
She's electric
She's in a family full of eccentrics
She done things I never expected
And I need more time
She's got a sister
And god only knows how I've missed her
On the palm of her hand is a blister
And I need more time
And I want you to know
I've got my mind made up now
But I need more time
And I want you to say
Do you know what I'm saying?
But I need more ....
Coz I'll be you and you'll be me
There's lots and lots for us to see
There's lots and lots for us to do
She is electric, can I be electric too?
She's got a brother
We don't get on with one another
But I quite fancy her mother
And I think that she likes me
She's got a cousin
In fact she's got 'bout a dozen
She's got one in the oven
But it's nothing to do with me
And I want you to know
I've got my mind made up now
But I need more time
And I want you to say
Do you know what I'm saying?
But I need more ....
Coz I'll be you and you'll be me
There's lots and lots for us to see
There's lots and lots for us to do
She is electric, can I be electric too?

Pearl: What does it give me?
Jag har blivit lite alkoholiserad igen men dock lite mer sofistikerat. Det kan jag bekräfta genom att jag inte har någon minneslucka från varken fredag, lördag eller igår och igår lyckades jag häva i mig sju öl och länsa en mini bar. Var av jag bara betalade för de två första ölen, det är bedrift! Ikväll ska jag fortsätta vara alkoholiserad med Prudence på CP. Morgondagens aktivitet är att igen spela en roll i mångfalden, det brukar jag göra genom att bli kallad till diverse intervjuer där mina konkurrenter är 40 åriga erfarna arbetare. Det jag får ut av detta är mindre oklart men det är ju som vanligt jag ger och ger och jag ger och va fan får jag för det?
Pearl
English
I started to get a little bit alcoholic again but I still do it with a little bit of sophistication. This I can certify with not having any black outs on Friday, Saturday or yesterday and yesterday I manage to down seven beers and clear out a mini bar. Whereof I just paid for the first two beers, that is an achievement! Tonight I'm going to keep on being a alcoholic with Prudence at CP. Tomorrows activities is to fill out the diversity, that I do by go to various interview where my contestant is 40 years old people with a lot of experience. What I get out of this is unknown, but as usual I give and give and I give and what the hell do I get out of it?
Pearl
Pearl: Can't believe it
Jag har varit sjuk och det brukar inte hända ofta, nu känns det nästan som det aldrig hände kan inte riktigt tro på att jag varit sjuk, jag kanske har förträngt det för det var så horribelt. Jag blev behandlad som om jag hade lepra eller mjältbrand, min mamma kom in i mitt rum med skyddsmundering för att undvika att bli smittat av min kräksjuka. Och de magkramper jag hade var så allvarliga att jag trodde jag behövde läggas in på sjukhus, nästan att jag hoppades på det så jag kunde få morfin. Men en bra sak fick jag ut av det här. För nu kan jag säga till folk som brukar vilja berätta för mig att jag visst vill föda barn men har bara inte förstått det ännu, att jag har fått känna på en liten bråkdel av den smärta som kommer att vara under en födsel och jag undviker helst denna smärta och det gör jag genom att INTE föda barn.
Pearl
English
I been sick and that is rare, can't really believe it now, I probably try to forget about. But it was horrible. I was treated as I had cholera or jungle fever. My mum just entered my room if she had plastic gloves on to avoid my stomach flu. But the pain was so severe that I thought I needed to be hospitalized I kind of wanted to so they could give me morphine. I actually felt sorry for myself and so did Peaches. But one good thing came out of this. Now I can tell people who corrects me with you do want to give birth you have just not realised it yet, that I will avoid these kind of pain (and what I experience is not even close) and there for I DON'T want to give birth.

Peaches & Pearl: Understanding each other

En seriös konversation där Pearl förstod på en gång.

Peaches: Well, I'll check if she has replied to my e-mail.
Pearl: Who?
Peaches: You know....., her

A serious conversation where Pearl understood immediately.
Pearl: Tune of the week
SPACEMAN
And you know I might
Have just flown too far from the floor this time
Cause they calling me by my name
And the zipping white light beams
Disregarding the bombs and satellites
That was the turning point
That was one lonely night
The starmaker says it ain't so bad
The dreammaker's gonna make you mad
The spaceman says everybody look down!
It's all in your mind
Now I'm back at home and
I’m looking forward to this life I live
You know it's going to harm me
So hesitation to this life I give
You think you might cross over
You're caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
You better look it over
Before you make that leap
And you know I'm fine, but I hear those voices at night
Sometimes, they justify my claim
And the public don’t dwell on my transmission
Cause It wasn’t televised
But it was the turning point
O what a lonely night
Peaches and Pearl fear the worst
Jag och Peaches fruktar det värsta. Jag blir trakasserad av min turk från jobbet.
Igår tog jag emot ett sms från ett främmande nummer som inte är registrerat, det löd:
- Hej är Pearl
Senare kom det ett samtal med dolt nummer, jag svarade men igen sa något. Ingen av mina vänner ringer med dolt nummer och de som kanske skulle kunna göra det låter bli för de vet att jag kanske inte svara om det är dolt nummer. Så slutsatsen jag och Peaches har dragit är att min turk från jobbet har frågat min chef om mitt nummer. För vem, vem annars skulle skicka ett sådant sms till mig? Jag vet inte hur jag ska gå till väga. Jag är nästan lite rädd.
Pearl
English
Me and Peaches fear the worst. I'm being harassed of my Turkish ex co-worker. Yesterday I received a text from an unrecognized number who hasn't been registered. It read:
-Hello is Pearl
Later that evening I had an incoming call from an unknown number, I answered but no one was there. None of my friends calls from unknown numbers because they know I don't appreciate it. So I and Peaches came to the conclusion that my Turkish ex co-worker asked my boss for my number. Because who, who else would send me this kind of text. I don't know what to do. I am actually a little bit frightened.

Peaches: Treasure Hunting
Inatt drömde jag att jag var en fisk som letade efter en skatt i en stor bassäng som var typ ett hav (?) och så blev jag guidad av mina föräldrar och kompisar som också hade varit fiskar när de letade efter skatten.
Men alltså..okej?
Peaches (uppenbarligen The White Shark)
English:
Last night I had a dream about me being a fish looking for treasure in a swimming pool which was also a sea (?) and I was guided by my parents and friends who had also been fish when they looked for the treasure.
Okay, seriously...what?

Pearl needs protection
Jag behöver skydd! Här om dagen på jobbet kom det in en gammal turkman och skakade hand med mig, jag reste på mig friviligt och hälsade tillbaka i tron att det var en kollega Richard som skulle komma från en annan butik och hämta varor. Jag tyckte det var lite konstigt för jag förväntade mig inte en gammal turkman. Då började han fråga frågor som, jobbar du här ofta? Vart bor du? osv. då förstod jag genast att något var fel. Det var inte Richard utan bara en gammal äcklig turkman, som sa upprepande gånger att han ska komma och hälsa på mig lite oftare. Han undrade om det var ok, jag svarade inte på frågan man han envisades om att få ett svar. Så jag svarade att alla människor får komma hit. Inte nog med det här, nästa dag kommer en ny gammal turkman och säger att jag är jättefin i svarta kläder eftersom jag är ljus och det blir som dag och natt. Sen säger han att jag har jättefint hår och sedan tar han sig på ansiktet och säger jättefint. När han ska gå så säger även han att han ska komma tillbaka. Vad tror dessa äckliga turkmän? Vad tror dem? Jag behöver skydd, en väktare som står utanför butiken 24 hours och skyddar mig från dessa turkmän.
Pearl
English
I need protection! The other day at work an old Turkish man came towards me and shook my hand, I voluntary shook his hand back because I thought that was Richard a college I expected from another shop to pick up some stock. But when this old Turkish man started to ask questions I immediately understand something wasn’t right. It wasn't Richard it was just a disgusting old Turkish man. He asked me repeatedly if he could come more often to see me. I didn't answer but he insists to get an answer so I said. This is a public place. Not enough with this, the day after a new old Turkish man arrived and told me I was beautiful in my black clothes because it looks like day and night because I'm blond. He also told me my hair was beautiful and then touch his face and said beautiful. When he was leaving he told me I will come back to see me. What the hell are they thinking? Leave me alone. I need protection 24 hours from these disgusting old Turkish men.

Peaches: The beauty of e-mail bombing
Jag älskar hur jag och Pearl bombar varandras mejlboxar med en massa, som sämre människor skulle kalla för, "skit". Det började med att jag mejlade henne en bild från juldagen. Correction, en fantastisk bild från juldagen. Hon slog tillbaka med en krönika om partyknarkande- d v s en krönika om någon som vågade svartmåla Resorb kombinerat med vodka. Detta mejl följdes av ett "Kolla in den här stavningen"-mejl där hon kopierat in ett meddelande hon mottog på obegriplig engelska, jag skrattade hela vägn till toaletten, på toaletten och på vägen tillbaka till datorn för att läsa det igen. Och så har det fortsatt, med citat och egenkomponerade raptexter- en ny grej som vi börjat med. Bra att hon är så uttråkad på jobbet och att jag inte har ett liv.
Peaches aka The White Shark
English:
I love how me and Pearl have started to fill each others mailboxes with, what smaller persons would call, "junk". It started with me e-mailing her a picture from the Christmas day. Correction, a fantastic picture from the Christmas day. She then sent me a column about "the new party drug", a column where somebody spitted on the idea of mixing Resorb with vodka. This e-mail was followed by a "check out this spelling"-email, in which she had copied a message she received in English which was impossible to understand. I laughted all the way to the loo, at the loo, and on my way back to read it again. And it has continued like this, with quotes and rap lyrics we have written ourselves- a new thing we've started. Good thing she's so bored at work and I don't have a life.

Pearl: changing
Peace out // TGWP
English
I have became a friendly person, at least I pretend to be one. I never chitchat with random people because if I don't have anything to say or just can't be bothered, I don't say anything. People sometimes thinks this silience are a bit awkward but I don't feel that, I feel that if I don't know you I probably don't have anything to say to you. I miss it a bit, being rude and impolite. I kind of rubbed of my fake friendliness on myself and became a little bit more pleasant, maybe I will one day be a better person.
Peace out // TGWP

I'm suffering from jetlag. For a week now I've been randomly falling asleep when watching TV. Something that should be a powernap always turned into a night's sleep. So I've been falling asleep around 5, 6 or 7 pm and woken up at 4, 5 or 6 am. That's not normal. I haven't spoken tp Pearl aka The Great White Pony for a while due to this, only via facebook- (normally the unsocial persons way of communication). So I received a text from Pearl (when I was asleep already):

Pearl: moments from high-school
Först vill jag redogöra för några bevis på att människan i fråga verkligen hatade mig.
- Han delade ut läroböcker till alla elever i klassen utan stackars Pearl som fick läsa med Prudence i hennes Bibel.
- Under lektionstid kunde han stå och bara stirra på mig en längre tid med hat i ögonen.
- En gång när jag skulle gå in i klassrummet sa han: du kan gå, och pekade bort från klassrummet.
- Under en skolresa fick han och resterande lärare för sig att jag och mina tre tjejkompisar hade smugit ut under natten och åkt motorcykel, de hade sätt en blond tjej i övervakningskameran. Vi alla var blonda men de var ju såklart jag som gjort detta, och jag var ju självklart hjärnan i allt vi gjorde som de ogillade under resan. Han var så upprörd att han inte ens kunde tala.
Min teori är nu att han fortfarande hatar mig och om han skulle se mig en dag skulle han få en obehaglig känsla i kroppen och känna hatet komma tillbaka, och jag tror att han inte skulle ingripa om han såg mig bli nedslagen. Låter lite hårt men det är hat vi snackar om.
Peral aka the Great White Pony
English
During my time in high-school I believe the teachers didn't like me nor disliked me, I was kind of neutral I guess, Maybe they disliked me more than cared for me, which probably was authorized. I wasn't bad or like that just didn't do anything and talked during the lessons. But there was one teacher who really hated me with all his guts. I don't feel any anger towards him because sometimes you just hate someone with no reason what so ever, and this time I became a victim of some ones unreasonable hate. I have a little theory about were the he stands today. First I just want to tell you few things that prove that he really hated me.
- He gave books to everyone beside poor Pearl that needed to share with Prudence.
- During the class he could stand and just stare at me with hate in his eyes.
- Once when I was entering the class-room he told me I could leave and pointed is arm away from the room.
- At a school trip he and the rest of the teachers thought I sneaked out during the night and ride a motorbike, because there saw a blond girl on a motorbike at the CCTV. All of us where blonds but everything we did was a conspiracy from me of course.
So my theory is that he still hates me and if he saw me one day all the hate would come back and if he saw me getting beaten he would walk away. Sounds harsh but this is hate we talk about.

Pearl: being nice isn't paying off
Ursäkta mig? Vad fan, här har jag varit snäll och vad fan fick man för det en, jävla t**** som ska bjuda mig på middag. Och inte nog med att jag måste stå ut med det här på jobbet, jag måste jag tydligen stå ut med honom på min fritid. Jag träffade på honom på tåget från Stockholm idag. Det var verkligen jobbig, vi satt tysta hela resan och när jag ska gå av så ropar han: Pearl, när ska jag bjuda dig på middag? Jag tittade på honom och gick, nu är det slut på att vara trevlig.
Pearl aka The Great White Pony
English
My new job as an tie expert isn't that stimulating, but I'm not that person who complains about that, I'm entertaining myself quite good, listen to Spanish music, reading my Spanish text book (pre-work for forthcoming life in a Spanish speaking country), reading news paper with my co-worker and helping him learn Swedish, enjoying the power outage, being amused of the security guys who fears a small anarchy at the mall, but now a small problem or actually a big on come to its existence at work. I fear my co-worker falling in love with me. It all started at the bus on our way home (we catching the same bus unfortunately) when he suddenly tells me he is going to take me out for dinner. I tell him I'm not hungry, I got plans all weekend and next week I'm working all week. But he insist because he promised to take me for dinner if he passed his driving test, no, no he told me he would buy me coffee, coffee not dinner. Later on at the bus, he leans his head against my shoulder.
Sorry? Is this what I'm getting for being nice, a bloody t**** who wants to buy me dinner. And today on my way home from Stockholm who do I meet at the train? Of course and when I'm getting off he shouts: Pearl when are we having that dinner? I look at him and walked away. No more being nice.

Peaches: Dreams about Hawaii & aviators
Sen kommer jag ihåg en annan störd grej, fast jag vet inte om det var inatt jag drömde det eller under dessa tre timmar på eftermiddagen jag sov. Det var i alla fall som så att...ja hur fan ska man förklara, det var ganska abstrakt. Niklas som jag jobbade med på Länstidningen förut var med och vi hade typ tältat mitt på stan fast jag ändrade mig för jag ville inte sova utomhus så jag hade gått hem till honom (fast det fick jag inte se i drömmen utan bara visste det) och han bodde på den gatan som Telgekällarn ligger på. Sen skulle jag gå hem och började gå mot klaffbron, då kom jag på att jag glömt mina pilotglasögon hos honom, fast då helt plötsligt bodde han i Götebrog och det hade han gjort hela tiden så då blev plötsligt att återfå mina brillor ett litet problem. Det var sommar. Någon cykel fanns också med på något hörn.
Min enda kommentar: Eh va?
Peaches
English:
Me and Pearl always dream really weird stuff and our dreams often involve unexpected people and things. Former classmates, their moms, kittens, exes, all you can eat candy, ice skates, people we went to kindergarden with, etcetera. Since I've been up since before the sun, I was knocked out at 5 pm already. So I accidently fell asleep and sleapt through "Are you smarter than a fifth grader". Fuck, I've been looking forward to that show all week (if anyone wonders, I am smarter than a fift grader almost everytime). Anyway, I dreamt that I was in Hawaii (ooooh torture me more please!) and I was hanging out with a girl from Scotland (who were there at the same time as me in real life when I was there in August). I don't quite understand why she's in my dream, I've spoken to her like once.
I also remember another weird thing, but I don't know if I dreamt it last night or during the three hours I was sleeping this afternoon. It was....how the hell should I explain, it was kind of abstract. Niklas, who I used to work with at the local newspaper was in the dream and we had camped in the middle of the city but I changed my mind because I didn't want to sleep outside so I had gone to his place (but I didn't see this in my dream I just knew it). Then I was on my way home and started to go towards the bridge, but I realised that I'd left my aviator sunnies at Niklas place. But suddenly he lived in Gothenburg and had done so all the time and then suddenly getting my sunnies back became a problem. It was summer outside. There was also a bike involved somehow.
My only comment: Eh what?!
Peaches
Peaches: Tune of the Week
English:
I was raised with this band, when I was a kid, we used to go to Hungary by car, and my dad always played Bikini. You know during the time before the CD, when cars only had a tape recorder. Oh what I'd give to be a kid again. I'm so happy that this band is still recordning new awesome songs. It's impossible to choose the best song, because all are so awesome, and I'll probably put more songs on my "tune of the week" in the future. They put so much thought behind their lyrics and they always mean something, but they are often kind of "look for the hidden mening" songs. And when they are on stage the crowd is always singing along, so great. But I'll put a normal version on, because it's easier to appreciate it for people who don't know the song. This time, tune of the week is one of Bikini's newer songs- "Angyali üdvözlet" (Angelic regards) and I chose this one because it's lyrics are most suitable for my mood today. Translation is available under the video, but the words mean so much more in Hungarian.
In angels, I've always believed, hoped for a miracle, under the Christmas tree
Opened the presents, like my wings did, with the philtre drinks
In angels, I've always believed, once I took one to the altar
We swore through good and through bad, flow together and then crashed down
I'm not bothering, but my soul was broken by wars
I'm not rioting, but a whole world fell apart inside of me
I'm just watching, as the ethereal dust buries me
We'll meet, somewhere, sometime
In ghosts, I've always believed, filled my mind with legends
Everything elapses, life is so different
There are no heroes, nor angel legends
I'm not bothering, but my soul was broken by wars
I'm not rioting, but a whole world fell apart inside of me
I'm just watching, as the ethereal dust buries me
We'll meet, somewhere, sometime
I'm not bothering, but my soul was broken by wars
I'm not rioting, but a whole world fell apart inside of me
I'm just watching, as the ethereal dust buries me
We'll meet, somewhere, sometime
Peaches: Another 6 am
Men alltså! Nu är jag uppe och härjar klockan 06 igen! Fast det är väl bättre än att somna klockan 06 och sova till 16. Så jag kanske inte ska klaga. Bör dessutom vänja in kroppen på att vakna tidigt eftersom jag börjar jobba nästa vecka och då blir det tidiga morgnar. Jag försökte sova vidare idag men Australienminnen sköljde över mig där jag låg i mörkret och då fick jag ångest och blev deprimerad. Jag har börjat drömma om min australiensiska kille också och allt bra därborta, vilket inte gör faktumet att sitta fast i ett äckligt kallt land bättre. Jag ville liksom inte hamna i någon djup svart saknadssvacka, så jag bestämde mig för att gå upp och tända alla lampor och dricka kaffe. Fan, jag börjar bli riktigt låg av hur mycket jag saknar alla och allt jag hade därborta...
På Nyhetsmorgon frågar de om man har en vit månad i januari.
- Nnnnhhhheeeej, det har vi inte.
Peaches
English:
Seriously! I'm up and raiding at 6 am again! However it's better to wake up at 6 am than to fall asleep then and sleep until 4 pm. So maybe I shouldn't complain. Plus, I should let my body get used to get up early because I'll start working next week and have to get up early then. I tried not to wake up early today but memories of Australia rushed over me when I was lying there in the dark and I got depressed. I didn't want to fall into a dark dip, så I decided to get up and turn all the lights on and drink coffee.
They ask on the moring show if people are having an alcohol free month this month.

Peaches: Me and Agda, 85 yrs.
Hittills har min produktivitet varit på topp. Förutom att ha storhandlat saker till min en månad långa viktväktardiet på Coop klockan 10 tillsammans med alla pensionärer med rollatorer har jag hunnit med följande:
- Berättat för Anna som har myror i lägenheten om min vän Mathias som hade samma problem förra året.
- Småstädat i mitt rum.
- Klätt på mig normala kläder (läs jeans), fast nu har jag mjukisar på mig igen.
- Lånat tyska- och spanskaböcker på biblioteket.
- Varit astrevlig mot alla som jobbar på Coop.
- Sorterat maten jag köpt och placerat den strategiskt.
Nu vill jag laga min bönsallad, fast kinesen är i köket och jag orkar inte vara där samtidigt liksom.
Peaches
English:
So far, my productivity has been great. Besides food shopping for my month long weight watchers diet, at 10 am with all the senior citizens with walking frames, I have also:
- Told Anna who has ants in her flat about my friend Mathew who had the same problem last year.
- Cleaned my room a bit.
- Put on normal clothes (jeans), I have sweats on me now though.
- Borrowed German and Spanish books at the library.
- Been extremely nice to people at the grocery store.
- Oragnised my food strategically.

- Handla mat
- Skriva jobbkontrakt
- Städa
- Läsa uppsatsen jag ska opponera på
Anledningen till att jag ska låna tyska böcker är att jag känner att jag börjar glömma språket. Jag var skitbra på gymnasiet och i Australien, men nu använder jag inte det och är orolig att min kunskap börjar fly. Jag menar, till och med Matt är bättre- något jag aldrig trodde skulle ske när vi läste tyska ihop i Australien. Men han åkte faktiskt till Tyskland för att plugga förra terminen. Anledningen till den spenska entusiasmen? Jag och Pearl har bestämt oss för att lära oss själva spanska. För vi är ascoola.

So I've submitted my final essay now. Feels great! The days before the submission were crazy. I was literally writing all day long, with a break only during One Tree Hill. Studying over 12 hours/day. It sounds like a lie, especially when I'm the one claiming to have done that. But it's true. I cannot understand how I did it. When people are telling me they study all day long I always think they're lying, but it is actually possible to do that. I never thought I would be able to do it though, since I alway get exhausted after 50 minutes of studying and have to take a break. I fell asleep at 6.30 am yesterday and woke up at 7.30, went to the library and waited for it to open with 20 others. It took me half an hour to figure out how the printer works (good job Mel), but after keeping my cool and 250 pages later I submitted my final paper, I was there first, and half an hour before the deadline. Yesterday, I fell asleep at 11 pm and woke up today at 6 am and thought to myself: "Why not do something done today?!"
So today's plans:
- Borrowing German and Spanish books at the library
- Buying food
- Signing a work contract
- Cleaning my crib
- Reading someone else's final essay
The reason for borrowing German books is that I feel I'm starting to forget the language. I was awesome in High School and in Australia, but I don't use the language now and I'm worried it'll slip away. I mean even Matt is better than me now- I never thought this when we took German in Australia. But to be fair, he went to Germany to study last semester. And the reason for the Spanish enthusiasm? Myself and Pearl have decided to teach ourselves Spanish. because we're fucking awsome.

Peaches & Pearl : about experience
Pearl: Det finns folk som säger att föda barn är en upplevelse och dem får det att låta som något positivt.
Peaches: Gröna Lund är en upplevelse, åka bergochdalbana är en upplevelse!!
English
Pearl: There are people that says that it is an experience to give birth and makes it sound as a positive thing.
Peaches: A funfair is an experience, ride a roller coaster is an experience!!
Peaches & Pearl: We don't demand much
Reklam på TV: Jag tycker att alla ska syssla med konst
Pearl: Jag tycker att.....alla ska ge mig pengar!
Så sant!
English:
Comercial on TV: I think everyone should be involved with art
Pearl: I think..... everyone should give me money.
So true!
Peaches: Btw
Och den där jävla deklarationen också! Det är också något du förväntas kunna av dig själv. Jag vet inte hur man gör!!!! Men jag är i alla fall inte sämst- "Matte vet inte ens vad det är".
Peaches
English:
Oh and that declaration shit too! That's something your are supposed to know by your self too. I don't know how to do that!!! But at least I'm not the worst off- "Matte doesn't even know what it is."
Peaches
Peaches: AAAAAuuuurgh!!!
Eh okej? Vad ska jag göra med detta? Så till fråga två: Förstår folk vad som menas med dessa siffror som inte är lönen och dessa random bokstäver inom paranteser? Jag blir så arg! Antingen så förstår ingen vad allt betyder, vilket leder till fråga tre: Varför står sånt skit med då? Eller så är det bara jag som är dum, vilket leder till fråga fyra: Hur har bara jag missat denna information? Hur lär man sig sånt? HUR fan ska man komma på hur det fungerar. Det finns ju inget som berättar för mig, ingen "första guide till hur du gör vuxn saker". NEJ NEJ NEJ, jag blir helt störd. Man antas bara veta från början. MEN HUR FAN SKA JAG VETA????
Ja jag har föräldrar som kan förklara, men tänk om jag inte hade haft det. Det är ju typ underförstått att man ska kunna allt, men hur är det möjligt när det inte finns någon som helst information på dessa papper. Det här är bara en sak av många man måste lista ut själv på något bisarrt sätt när man slutar att vara barn. Jag blir så FÖRBANNAD.
Peaches
English:
I'm so upset! I don't know how to put words to my thoughs. All the questions I have are just pouring over! I got a letter today. Looks like some kind of payslip. Okay, question one: How the hell do you read them? Anyway, some numbers are on the paper and then it says something about the tax year of 2008, and then two letters and a number in brackets. And then: THIS IS YOUR CONTROL SLIP FOR 2008.
Eh okay? What should I do with this? Question two: Do people understand what all these numbers an random letters mean? I'm so annoyed! Either nobody understands what it means- which then leads to question three: Why is shit like that written on the paper then? Or, I'm just stupid, which leads to question four: How come I've missed this information? How do you learn shit like this? HOW the hell should I figure out how it works? There's nobody telling me how to, no "first guide to how to do grown up stuff". NO NO NO, I'm getting totally mental. You are just supposted to know it from the start. BUT HOW THE HELL SHOULD I KNOW???
Yeah I've got parents who can explain it to me, but what if I didn't. It is kind of assumed that you should know everything, but how it is possible when there is no information what so ever. This is just one of many things you have to figure out on your own in some bisarr way when you stop being a kid. MENTAL MENTAL!!
Peaches
Pearl: to-do list
Vi brukar undra om det bara är våra föräldrar som beter sig på detta sätt eller om det bara är vi som erkänner det. För det är helt bisarra saker vi får gå igenom. Så nu på att göra litsan: jakt på en lya.

Peaches and I have been thinking about getting a small flat until we will move to Australia because we aren’t shore if we can’t stand living at home, it's very demanding to live with our psychotic parents. I mean the only thing we require is to be able to order pizza, talk in the phone, not wear any socks, not wear a winter jacket, vomiting all night, sleep on the bathroom floor, look for the mobile, leave home eight a clock instead of seven, eat in the middle of the night etc without anyone getting pissed off.
Sometimes we wonder if it's just our parents or if we are the only one that actually admits this. Because we really experience some bizarre things. So now on the to-do list: look for a new pad.
Pearl
Peaches: A matter of life and death
Peaches
English:
Once, when I was on my around the world trip and had been in New York for a few days, I had forgotten to call my parents and my mom called my bank to ask them if I was alive. If you are very lucky, maybe I'll tell you the whole story some day.
Peaches
Pearl:??

Overall very cheerfull people, how enoying arn't they

Pearl: nothing to look forward to.
Nu finns det inget mer att se fram emot, Juldagen har varit, Nyårsafton är över. Penny kom då med "jag fyller år", ja det är kul men gynnar inte mig så mycket, det är inte ens så kul att fylla år själv. Jag ska på bröllop snart det kan bli kul men inget så där som Juldagen finns att längta efter. Så det enda vi har att se fram emot är ju min och Peaches stora Leaving Party som kommer äga rum någon gång i sommar. Då, vänta bara...
Men det är ju sådär åtta månader to go. Så jag vet det fan vad man ska ta och hitta på så det blir lite spänning i vardagen. Men Prudence kommer hem den 17 jan och det ska ju bli riktigt kul. Prudence nu får du komma hem och se till att stackars Peaches & Pearl får det riktigt roligt, det är upp till dig nu.
(Oh jag glömde Oasis, förutom det)
Pearl
English
There are nothing more to look forward to what so ever. The Christmas Day is gone and New Year's Eve is over. Penny said: It's my birthday soon. Yeah okay, but is not that much fun it's not even that much fun with your own birthday. I'm attending a wedding in February, could be something but there are nothing like The Christmas Day to look forward to. So the only thing we have to look forward to is our big Leaving Party that will take place in the summer. And then, just wait...
But that is eight months to go. I don't know what to come up with to entertain us with until then. Prudence is coming home 17 of January, that will be lovely. But then it's up to you to entertain Peaches & Pearl.
(Oh I forgot Oasis, besides that)
