So it's 10 past 1 in the morning and can't sleep so in between posting random stuff on Instagram (btw my username is emilylouise258 Maybe I'll follow back ;) ) thought I'd post an update. So finally got person numbers, woohoo! ;) But there's a downside,, most phone companies want you to have had a person number for 6 months before you can get a SIM card or Internet contract -_- :( which is pants... So more waiting then.., :P but other than that I haven't really got much more to say, just that I've been to a BBQ (abit early seeming as it's not really summer yet but oh well) then came home to eat cake ;) (Love cake, sometimes my sister compares me to Monica from Friends because I'm kind of a control freak, and a neat freak an she says I'm a fat girl inside... ;) have you watched friends? Who'd you think you are out of the Friends cast?) then been posting pics on Instagram cause I've got nothing else to do :) (would post some pics but I'm on the web not app and I'm to lazy to download it,,) So yanoooo :P
But anyways really happy about the views and emails I'm getting about this blog, cause I'm only just starting and everything's still new to me, so just subscribe or comment or like or whatever :) everything helps :D
Well laters! <3
Teen Moves Abroad
Hi, my name's Emily and I'm 14. I used to live in England but now I've moved to Sweden. This blog is about my move and just my life in general. :) I decided to create a blog because it had always been an idea I had --Still haven't decided whether that was a good or bad move ;) -- Anyway that's me :) Give my blog a read and tell me what you think.

Piercings.....
Hi guys!
Thanks for the emails, great chatting to some of you guys!
Anyway, just thought i'd do a quick update just to fill you guys in, (why you'd want to know I have no idea :P )
So, Swedish is going Ok, still super difficult and i think they talk really fast but hopefully, in time, i'll get it :D I'm planning to go back to the UK in the summer to see family and stuff soon, so that should be fun too :) Trying to beg my parents to let me get my belly button pierced, I mean I know friends who've got it and i'm not worried about pain, so hopefully they will say yes :D So if any of you guys have any advice for me or stories then comment or email me :) Would really like to hear them. Also i'd like your opinion, i'll post a poll later, but i'm not sure whether to just get a standard belly piercing (at the top) or whether (not straight away of course) to get a one at the top and bottom, a double belly button piercing?

Email meeeeee! :D (I'd love you guys forever ;) )
Just a quick and random update while doing some homework (boring I know! ;) ) -Btw I will definitely be doing an update soon!- but maybe you guys could email me some feedback, or just email me for any reason really, could do with a chat as feeling pretty isolated at the moment, home life is rubbish, can't understand a word anyone says and don't really have anyone to talk to. Sorry for venting :P haha but I'm also here if anyone else wants to talk about anything! :)

Who doesn't love Easter? ;)
Hi :)
Haven't posted in like over a week! Been pretty busy, and Internets a bitch! Like you can't do anything without a Swedish Person Number! No mobile number, no Internet (stuck with some pay as you go data thingy :P ), can't join classes to learn Swedish and god knows what else. But hopefully it should be sorted soon. :D
Anyway, how's your Easter been? Mine was pretty good tbh, woke up with croissants for breakfast :D then had a Swedish Easter egg :P they're not like typical English ones. (A plain chocolate shell with a bag of sweets or chocolates in)
Here are some pictures!
[By the way these pictures are straight from my instagram which is: emilylouise258 ]
Also the Swedish is going okay, loads of super fun exiting homework though -_-
As well as all that, I started the 100 squats a day challenge. Never really been a fitness freak or anything like that but, since I go swimming with the school in 2 weeks and summer is nearly here, I thought I'd make an effort. :P Gotta tell you guys it kills! I barely ever exercise, so I think the 70 squats and 10 crunches was a shock to my system! (Don't think the crunches were the issue as I used to do like 40/50 every other day for kickboxing, but the squats! I mean I couldn't even make it to 100 and my thighs are literally in agony!) Has anyone else tried any new health or fitness regimes recently? So on day 2 I upped it it to 100 squats and 20 crunches and my legs still ache, can barely walk! Reaaallllyyyy starting to regret this :( But yanoo, no pain no gain, isn't that right guys ;) Well gonna go get some homework done (cause you know that's the super swotty gormy nerd I am ;) ) But will definitely update soon on my new workout strategy and all other sorts of random stuff I come up with :P
Bye :D

Snows still here!
Anyways now I'm doing my Swedish homework, I've been working with some books (they're called Mål 1 I think :) ) and they're pretty good. I think the hardest thing with the pronunciation of my Swedish is how they pronounce their R's (they do this kind of strange noise in the back of their throat which is like impossible for me to do!) and the noise they make when they say seven, which is sju in Swedish. When they say it I'm like Huh? whuuut was that?... Anyone got any tips and I would be so grateful! Oh and also when they say the alphabet, I can never tell whether they are saying e, i or y! So confusing... Other than that I've just been sticking to basic phrases and been building up my vocabulary for when I start saying sentences and things... Save me now.... :(

Technology!
Just a quick update, sorry I haven't posted in a while, my Macbook broke... How I love seeing the Kernel Panel (Similar to the windows blue screen of death)... :( Then my Internet crashed... Oh how I love technology!
Anyways, Swedish is going ok, learning more and more as I go along :D That's if I'm at school tomorrow, there's a predicted snow storm tonight with 30cm of snow!
Anyway, what's the weather like for you guys?

Language progress...
So I started reading my first Swedish book today, it's called 'Märta rider vilse.' Feel pretty stupid reading a book a 6 year old would read but I'm just glad that I can understand some of it :P --Well some of the first 2 pages I've read :P -- Because I've pretty much been learning Swedish for the past week and a half, this is because the rest of 8th grade are on work experience --and well I can't really go because I don't know Swedish well enough yet, hopefully I will soon :D, and I have no idea if I've told you this already but oh well-- I think It's going well, but I can tell it's going to take a long time until I'm anywhere near as good as some of the Swedes are at English! I just hope that one day I might be able to translate all these posts into Swedish so maybe a few more people will have the chance to read it :)
Not much more I can say really, haven't really done much these past 2 days apart from sit and watch 'An Idiot Abroad.' Absolutely love that show! Have you guys watched it? I just think Karl Pilkington is like really funny, I'm literally in stitches for the whole show :P Or some other shows I find really funny are Miranda --Oh my life I love Miranda! If you haven't watched it before you totally should! I mean you might not find it funny, it might just be my immature sense of humour but maybe you'll enjoy it :) -- or things like Mrs Brown's Boys or 2 Broke Girls. If you've seen any of them comment or something and let me know what you think? Or if you've got any other shows you think I should take a look at :) I'm open to suggestions :)

Weather Update!
The green snowfall has finally ended this morning. The storm that brought the snow (caused by an alien spacecraft) has finally moved away to the east. This morning's low was 29 degrees. Skies have cleared (and are now alien free) and the sun is out at this moment. We should see temperatures to be warmer today with highs in the 60s, or maybe 70s, or even 80s!
Look for good weather to continue through Thursday with a warming trend, and don't forget to cross your fingers that the green snow and orange rain don't return over the weekend. By Thursday, expect highs to be in the 70s. However, the early morning temperatures will still remain cool through Thursday with lows in the 30s. Winds will remain light
Obviously there is a chance the invasion could, after all, take place this weekend, meaning pigs will fly and marshmallows will grow wings... However it should all subside by Monday, so just stay inside and lock your doors, but if you do decide to venture outdoors, wear a raincoat because flying marshmallows won't look good on a white shirt...
Just kidding! :P --That was my attempt at being a weather forecaster, might not be exact but oh well :P -- Just thought I'd update you guys on the fact the snow is nearly gone! Hallelujah! Although we still have got some snow and ice, damn :( Hopefully this should all go shortly :D Anyways, I'm writing this pretty pointless update as I'd rather talk to you than do my homework... --You know me and Homework don't really get on, I like to think of Homework as like a Pigeon, They are unwanted and impossible to get rid of!--
And I would just like to thank everyone that has emailed or commented telling me about their experiences! I really appreciate it :D Anyways Like, Comment, Subscribe, Tweet,,,, Blah blah blah... You know what to do ;)
So laters :) --No idea when later will be but I'm guessing I'm not going to be gone for long!-- :D
