Tomorrow mum and dad come to visit me for two weeks… Here is a welcome video! Unfortunately the sound isnt so good but anyway! enjoy!
Movie of the week – Piratbay
In Hawaii we dont hear much about the IPRED but i guess it is a big question in Sweden now? Is this rule really going to change anyway, i dont think so? This movie from Piratebay is 1year old but still interesting and in English. Piratebay became 5years old in November and have over 20million users.
Roadtrips and Oneill World Cup
We had Thanksgiving last week so we got 2days off from school, which was a perfect time to travel around the island. I went with my classmate Jennell on Thursday to Mokuleia and Waimea beach to just look around and throw some frisbee and tennis ball in the water! It was great times with fresch grilled schrimps and jumping from cliffs and just explore places on the island we never went before. Around Mokuleia I think some episodes of Lost is recorded, the nature was amazing!
The day after me, Jennell and her roommate String first to Makapuu beach to do some body boarding and just chill out in the sun. At Makapuu beach you can see the lighthouse from the movie “50 first dates”. Afterward we went to Kailua beach and then home again. Unfortunately our car has no half-light, just the full light so I am a bit worried about driving when it is dark.
Saturday was a rainy day. Stayed in bed for a long time and watched The Shawshank Redemption for my second time, one of the best movies ever! On Saturday we also went to a house party, it was great!
On Sunday we went to O’Neill World Cup and Northshore, me, Karel, Marc and a Hawaiian guy Ross who lives one floor above us. It was huge waves up there and fun to watched for a while. I think this competition was one of the biggest so I guess we are going for another one soon again.
Next week is the finals, so going to be a bit busy for a while now. Then my parents are coming on the 12 of December and then Wasse and Jöne on the 22 of December. Christmas on Hawaii, think it is going to be Übercool :)

apple commercial
One of the best advertistments ever… There is one way to do things and there is a better way!
This weekend I have seen the two Zeitgeist movies. They are both available online, I like part1 and part3 from the first movie and more or less the whole second movie, the part from the venece project is maybe too detailed in the second movie. I recommend all thinkers and all people who wants to see the world from another perspective to see this one, it is about society, who has the power and why! Go to http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/ to see them from free.
vad tyst det blev

2months left! big island! obama! shangri la!
A short update about what is going on here. Today 2months left on Hawaii… My roomate Marc friend from Sweden came here on saturday and explained to us how the weather is back in Sweden… It is good to get reminded about it so you can appreciate the time here better, be able to just walk around with shorts on, flip-flops, and take a swim in the blue whenever you like :)
Sue, thanks you so much for the birthday postcard, it was great! I have to start to write mine soon for to the winners in the math competetions! soon, soon…
The big island trip seems like so long time ago now but i have to finish my last part. The last day we went to Wapio valley and went with ATVs(fyrhjulingar) for a 3hour trip. It was so much fun! I drove just behind our young tourguide and we made small jumps and everything, sweet! We saw Hawaiis highest waterfall but also some smaller once were only the king and queen of Hawaii were able to take a bath before.
Obama won! not so much change yet but i think it will come, 20 of january maybe! I thought it would be more celebration here since obama grow up on Hawaii. In America they are making so much fun of Sarah Palins at the moment, it is fun but not really what i expected!
We went on a school trip to shangri la last friday… it is a islamic style house build by Doris Duke. Pretty cool but the guide were soo slow and we also had a security guard all the time around us, America fuck yeah!
School stuff: Last week I had a mid-term and a oral presentation and today one mid-term and on wednesday one more mid-term. But after that I will have “relaxing” time until december! :)
Over and out boy scout!
80s party, birthday, halloween
Sorry for the my late update my few readers :)
It has been a busy time with the Swedish 80´s party at lotus, the longest birthday in my life(yeah!) and crazy halloween party! The Swedish 80´s party was amazing, the mood of the people were so great, we all dressed up in 80´s clothes and danced to old good music until 4am :) everyone were so ugly, just as it is supposed to be at a 80s party…
To have birthday in a timezone 12hour from Sweden is pretty nice, people start to call in the evening before it actually was my birthday local time. First was Åsa on facebook, she is 19hours ahead, then Sweden and last but not least hawaii. We went to mooses(1dollar bar) and afterwards to dennys restaurant, i bought a cinnamon fried nacho plate with cream, chocolate sause and strawberries, tasty :) From my friend and classmate Jennell i got a nice tshirt with the text and picture saying “helping other people everywhere. hope”, thank you very much! Jonas Erik Magnusson made me a video which he posted on youtube i hope he dont mind me posting it here! Thanks Jönstedt!
Halloween is crazy in america! people dressed up as everything, joker, smurfs, facebook, traffic sign, cocusnutbikinigirls, pirates, pimps, starwars and whatever you can think about! I really liked it, me and karel dressed like scream and went around on the street scared people, of course just for fun.
Yesterday we went to the west coast of the island for the first time. The locals dont like the tourists so much there there, the beaches is really nice there and we were lucky to not get into troubles with any locals…
Tomorrow it is election day and i am so excited, i had my obama tshirt in school today and will have it tomorrow too, a lot of people comment the tshirt! “thats a nice shirt dude”! the end of the week we have a new president and it is going to be obama! yeah! :)
