Dear Diary! ;)

Wow, what a weekend I’ve had! As U know from my previous entries, the congress for RFSL was this past weekend. It was gr8! :D

At first there was mix-up with the rooms, so I was supposed to share room with a total stranger. HE was not only a stranger but deaf as well. I suppose he was from RFSL Rainbow. 

Anyway, our chairman Leif let me share room with him instead… BIG mistake! Not only for him, but for me as well. They’re gonna tease me for this forever! But I’ll get to that later…

Congress was kinda boring, but all the flirting was gr8! ;) I actually spent the night with a girl named Sofia. It was sorta ok.. We were both drunk and Leif “slept” besides us. The fun thing is that any other dude would have loved it, but Leif is gay and he did not enjoy it at all.. But I’m sure he will enjoy telling all the others on the board next meeting. Shit! They will be teasing like hell! :S

On the party on Saturday I saw The Woman. OMG, she was so hot. And cute. And beautiful. She had a smile to die for! Me and Leif stood in the queue for food, and she turned around and smiled at me. It felt like time stopped. I couldn’t speak. I couldn’t move. It felt as if we were the only ones there. When I finally spoke it sounded so lame! But she spoke to me after that anyway, later at the bar. But I had to go speak to my ex’ girlfriend, I promised.. When I returned she was gone, and I hooked up with Sofia.

I saw her again in line for coffee on Sunday.  I was done getting coffee before her, but I discretely waited around.. :P I was still drunk, so I don’t think I were that discret.. I think she noticed. We spoke a few words. I fell. Hard.

So I’ve been spending the past few days trying to find her. I finally did just now. Her name is Anna and she is the chair(wo)man for RFSL Umeå. I dropped her a line.

My boss is a prick! Fuck her! She gave me a written warning today. I haven’t written for a while.. Maybe I should start from the top..

This weekend was my second RFSL congress, I couldn’t get off work so I loaned my car to the others that could. I had Sunday off, but that wouldn’t do, the party is on Saturday so I felt like there was no use. The hot girl with the smile from last year congress, Anna, noticed I was replaced and sent me a text:

“Why R they saying U R replaced?? I was sooo looking forward 2 C U again..L”

I just had to go! I figured I would spent many hours regretting it if I didn’t. That I'd always be wondering.

I asked my co-workers if they would manage the evening without me. They could, so I called John and asked him to drive me to Stockholm. He was the sweetest and did!

I arrived about 22 to Stockholm and she met me in the lobby. We hung out. We kissed. We made out. I felt it in my whole body! It was real and surreal at the same time. Time stopped. It was like in the movies. I never thought kisses like that happened irl.

Anyways! I wanted to spend the night with her, but I couldn’t get a hold of her. At first I thought she was ignoring me, but on Sunday we had coffee together. We spoke for hours, and before I knew it, it was time to go home. She approached me and asked me for a kiss goodbye. We made out in the lobby, for everyone to see.. :P

It was totally worth the written warning from work. Even if it's total bullshit.

Christmas Eve 2010

I know, I haven’t been writing for a while. I’ve been really low ever since my dog passed away. But now I’m writing. I really want to share this day with U.

We are at Anna’s father’s and wife’s house in Graninge Bruk. This morning we got up early to set the table for tomorrows morning mass in church. It’s freezing!! But Anna wanted to take a walk anyway. I wasn’t fond of the idea, since it’s like the fuckin’ North Pole, and I haven’t really been out for walks since Dinio passed away. But she was very persuasive so I went along.

By the frozen lake she stopped and wanted to go to the shore. I thought it was a very bad idea since we got snow up to our knees, but she insisted. Then she gave a a Christmas gift and said she wanted me to open it, so I did.
Inside was a necklace with a medallion, I opened it and it said:
‘Ann, I love you more than anything. Will you marry me?’

“Anna, are you proposing?” I asked her.
“Yes, I am.” She answered. She looked so nervously cute^^.
“Aren’t you supposed to kneel then?” (Dunno why I asked her that, but it felt right at the moment)
She went down on one knee, almost drowning in snow and asked:
“Ann, will you be my wife? Will you marry me?”

I said yes! :D 

      

E-writing assignment 3

1) Google/look up and learn more about the following poetic forms: the sonnet, the nonnet, the ode and the haiku. Select and post one of your attempts at the form of your choice.

A nonnet is a type of poem with nine lines. The first line should contain nine syllables, the second line eight, the third line seven, and so on. I do apologize for this nonnet, hopefully it won’t embarrass you too much.. :P

Here it goes:

Her fingers all over my body
Touching every inch of skin
My heart starts beating faster
She touches the button
Rubbing it faster
Babe, don’t stop now
Carry on
Make me
Come

2) Write and post a poem of your own in any shape, form or style.

To Evert!

His nose is warm and perfect as a button,
and he's well-behaved and not like a mutton.
He’s covered with silky hair,
and he always seems to care.
He has the cutest little tail,
and his ears are finally rising like a sail.
He walks pretty in a leash,
and he's always eager to please.
He has a special spot in my heart,
and hopefully we’ll never be apart.

 

3) Write and post a limerick whose first line includes one of the following names or places. (Wales)

There once was a big loser from Wales

who always told the craziest tales
about sailing the sea
in the shell of a pea
using his big hairy ears as sails.
