...another weekend...

The weekend started out quite well..nice weather and goodies at work (our every month after work hangout at the institute). Then I had visitors from Sweden....two old colleauges that were dropping by after a conference on their way to NYC. Unfortunately I couldn´t take the day off so I had to go back to work after meeting them and taking them out to a mexican place for lunch. But I think they did well and manage to walk around Harvard square and also get to down town. When I finally got off work I met up with them downtown and showed them some shopping places and aroudn town. After some good shoe shopping we past Boston common to check out the Shakespeare in the Common a bit before we went on to have a late diner at the Cheesecake factory. I think they had a nice day but were very tired and fell asleep right away. Today they took the noon bus to NYC and I wen tback to work a bit. Then the T-storms started and it just pored down. Later in the afternoon I met up with Anders and Emma to have a "fika" and do some shopping. Both me and Anders managed to find some bargains..you know me...I like shopping :). Then Anders & Emma went to the movies to watch the new Harry Potter movie, chish I have already seen, so I went home.

My sister Anh is coming tomorrow so we´ll see what we will do then..but no more shopping I think..need to start saving some money, btu we will have a nice time.

Well that´s all for this time folks....I mean summer, good, weather..good food and a lot of cute girls to see....I better spend more time out then sitting in front of the computer right?

Lots of Love

Hello...

long time no see dear friends. How you doin? Are there anyone reading this blog? Anyway...I have been back in Boston for two weeks now and really trying to be more active and live a more active life...as close to the one I use to have back home in Sweden as possible. I have started to exercise again..and got back to a little bit healhtier food although it is incredibly hadr stay away from the Boston Creme at Dunkin or the burgers, but I ill try.

The past weeks have been quite nice...both at work and in my free time. The weather has been great and the summer do offers so much more than the winter here. Today my whole lab went out to lunch together to celebrate a paper that I also have been a part of. That was very nice however...as usual I ate to much and are very sleepy....Yesterday I had dinner with Anders and Emma and Emma´s mother and sister, which were really nice. I had a steak and ribs combo which I gladly without any problem finished....sooo gooood. That was my celebration of my good friend Martin´s 30th B-day. So if you are readign this Martin..Happy Birthday (one day late though).

Until next time...take care, let me know that you are alive adn best wishes
Bamse hugs

Back in Boston....





I do have kind of a funny feeling coming back to Boston. Eventhough Sweden is home....it feel liek coming home to Boston because it is in Boston where I have my own living place. I did have a wonderful time at home in Uppsala and also in France. I do miss all you my friends very much and it was nice seeing that everyone is doing great. It was a bit sad to leave Sweden because it is so nice there now in the summer...I guess that there is really something special abotu the swedish summer that I cannot explain.

Yesterday US celebrated their independence day and I saw the biggest firework ever live. It was incredible eventhough I had to stand in the rain watching it.

Today is the frist day at work adn I am a bit tired....started the day with a seminar followed by a meeting with the boss....tough start but totally ok actually...it seems like I managed to recharge the batteries very well.

I will post some pictures from my vacation here to so enjoy.

Love
