Hey everyone,
Sorry that I haven't updated you with all that's been happening in Sweden so far but there seems to be a problem with the picture uploading in the blogger here. So, I won't do any new posts until I get back to Malaysia which is in December 31st. Right before new years!
Anyway, right now it's a white Christmas here in Sweden~ It finally snowed right on Christmas eve! But for Sweden apparently they celebrate Christmas on the 24th instead of the 25th. Present time!
My uncle and auntie gave me 500 Kronos (RM250) to buy myself a present since they don't know what I like. I told them it was too much but they wouldn't accept my refusal *sigh*...
So now I have to choose on what I should get later as my present. But I won't buy anything until the 26th since that's when the megasale starts over here. Prices on all items will drop faster than you could say sale!!! Ahahaha! I'm looking forward to see what I can get for myself before I go back to Malaysia. Oh yeah did I mentioned I already got myself a guitar? Yes I'm rubbing it in to all of you right now bwahahaha!
Anyhoo~ I'll post all the stories in Sweden when I get back to Malaysia later. Until then~ Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone!!!

Some food from Sweden~
Hey everyone,
As promised, here are some pictures of the food over here. Seriously nice I tell you.
This one my uncle calls it Nasi Goreng Mat Salleh style. Instead of rice they use potato cubes. The red jello looking thing is called radish apparently.
This is the best burger I have ever tasted in my entire life! And its only available in Sweden. They didn't have an international franchise. The place is called Max Burger and it's seriously nice!
Another from Max Burger. This one is called Chilli Cheese. They grilled the cheese with the chillies inside it. Damn nice taste! It's only available from Max Burger outlets in all of Sweden.
This is the kebab style they do in Sweden. It's like... HUGE! I almost couldn't finish the whole thing! Never in my life before have I eaten kebab with fork and knife though. That was a first.
Last but not least, the swedish meatballs! A lot of my friends back home wanted to eat the meatball. It's quite nice actually.

Some Scenery from Sweden
Hello all,
As the title says, I posted some photos that I took around Sweden. It's not much yet though as I haven't had the time to go around the city to take more stuffs but it's better than nothing.
The spot where I took this photo is fantastic. You can see the whole city from the view up there.
This island is in the middle of the city. Nice isn't it?
This is me by the boat restaurant. Apparently this boat never sails. It's a high class restaurant, or so I have been told. Haven't try the food there yet.
The tree that I'm pointing at is seriously huge. This photo was taken far far away from it because we couldn't get a parking spot near the tree.
The statue of the first king of Sweden I think? The guy lived over 400 years ago.
Snapshot of the 7 Eleven store of Sweden. Inside it is seriously huge. x3 the size of Malaysia's 7 Eleven.
Festival going on near the place I'm staying at. It took place at the train station of the area. They used the bonfire behind me to do some BBQing.
This is the tree near the plaza next to the train station at my area.
Dirty pile of snow that came in last week. Seriously dirty isn't it?
Another tree near the plaza. Looks nice right?
Pony and goat arguing with each other. Cute ain't it?
Me near the train station of Akalla (that's the area I'm staying in).
The merry-go-round ride of the festival. Cute?
Entrance to the park. Looks nice right? The park is so much different than Malaysia's park. It's so clean and woody.
The public library of my area.
Fountain overflowing with weeds all over.
Tree infront of the library.

Hello Sweden~
Hey people!
Today was my first day in Sweden and I have to say, it's way better than anything that I had expected so far! The plane trip was a drag as it was a 12 hour flight. The good thing is though that they had a great selection of movies on the planes that you can watch on the flight. I watched Dark Knight, Wall-E, Assasin, Mr. and Mrs. Smith and many more. Besides that, I also tried to finish one of the books that I bought last month but I only got to read only half of the book during the flight. The movies were too distracting.
Anyway~ We reached Sweden at 2.00pm Sweden time which is around 8.45pm Malaysia time. It was not as cold as I thought it would be. Honestly, I was expecting it to be below 0 degrees celcius but it was a positive sign. Sadly, the snow had melted when we reached there but at least we're going to be here for a month so we will definitely see some snow action soon ahahah!
My aunt and uncle took me to their place in Scandanavia and showed us around the shopping mall as well as playing some catch up stories. We were window shopping around the mall and I can't believe the prices around the place. It was way cheaper than Malaysia price which means~ Shopping! Ahahahaha! But we won't start shopping until the 26th December as they will be having some kind of a warehouse sale.
Other than that, I absolutely positively love the internet connection here at my uncle's place! It's like a dream come true~ The air around Sweden is seriously nice and cold. But it's not as cold as my mom and sis described at me before. Anyway~ I have to start writing some articles for the INTI Insider now. A lot to do in a week! See ya next time peepz!
