Week 47

It is week 47 in school and things have been picking up quite a lot. I've been working on essays and I'm left with one more on The Grapes of Wrath and a take home exam which will come sometime in early December.
For the past 2 days I have sat in my room like some social recluse typing and reading away furiously so get work out of the way so that my plans for the week will not be ruined and I'm happy to announce that everything will go as planned.
The Shils pulled it off =D My thanks to Maccy Mac Lappy.

Well I've also been keeping the boys here happy with my unpredictable urges to whip up food at or past midnight. On Saturday after a party, I decided to make apple crumble at 3am...that was fun. And then on Sunday I went over to Vishnu's with everything I needed to make chocolate Swedish pancakes and whipped up a nice warm batch that we enjoyed.
Vishnu has developed a love affair with crumbles. Leave out the fruit, just give the boy some topping!
I've come to realise that my days in Lulea are numbered. I teachnically only have a month here and then I leave to run around Europe for a while before returning back home. We had a planning meeting to decide how we'll be traveling. We all decided to make it a potluck, so I made thai fishcakes (again), (adulterated) Greek tomato keftedes and the starwberry crumble in the picture above.
Vishnu made a great spicy fried bee hoon and chicken curry, while Jason made yam rice which was such comfort food. And dale made chew sweet potato fritters that his roomie form China taught him, very tasty morsels indeed.

It turns out that we all might only end up meeting sometimes, and even that depends on the trains - how full they are and if there are delays. Plus it's the holiday season so everyone will be traveling to go back to home towns and what not. I'm fine with traveling alone now, it's just that I think being alone for Christmas and New Year's would be really tragic.

I'm looking to begin from Stockholm and fly to London.
From London onwards I'll be taking the train to all my destinations:
Paris ->Belgium/Luxumberg/Holland ->Berlin -> Prauge -> Zurich -> Nice/Monaco ->Pisa/Rome/Vatican
And I'll fly back to Stockholm from somewhere in Italy. Grab my stuff and fly home to Singapore.

I. Hate. Planning.
