a long forgotten fairytale.







for over a year i have been communicating with people in sweden through social internet networks, ie facebook, myspace, msn messenger, etc. 
since before the whole au pair plan was ever laid out, or thought of, i have built internet friendships with kids my age in sweden to get to who what where when and WHYS about what they do; school, work, housing, transportation, language, music, clothes, etc.
they have only enticed and sealed the deal to come over and play!

they have taken a role of story book characters; celebrities from a magazine; my new cast list of the next chapter in life. its going to be so exciting when we finally meet!

which has brought me to the final chapter in boston. and knowing the end is near, things are getting a bit sad as goodbyes are never on my TO DO LIST.  

boston and i will part ways after november 19.
[i will more then likely fly from boston to albany nov 28 when i come back, but that will be just for an overnight. and possibly when i fly to sweden in january i will fly from logan.] 
it is bittersweet. photo school is over and done, and boston only frusturates me with lack of inspiration. [time out! credit to passion pit!<-- & congrads on the record label!]


so as the next few chapters are laying out before me, it is time to write the best happily ever after with my peers, co-workers, friends, and acquaintances here in boston. you have ALL played a role in my life; big and small. i am both happy and honored to walk away with a piece of EVERYONE knowing that i am a better person.

much love.


[p.s. why do i feel like the little mermaid giving up her under the sea life for a chance at another she's unfamilair with? oh walt disney. . . your themes will never die!]

sweden is great, but time out. . . SAN FRANCISCO?!



you know, its all very easy to get lost in my sweden day dreams. . .
but i had to stop and think today.
IM GOING TO SAN FRANCISCO! i have never been.
and this is very monumental. because for those who know me, know i am OBSESSED with Full House. 
[brief background time line:
i am the same age as the olsen twins. so when i was 4, seeing another 4 year old on tv was CRAZY! full house was the first tv show that i first understood the concept of a tv show, a fake family, a camera crew. heck, i thouht they were a real family, and there just HAPPENED to be a camera taping some days. full house was back on the air in about 2002 and i remember writing about it in my diary. i use to make sure i watched it on TBS before ballet class in high school. its so nostalgic! today, i own 7 of the 8 seasons on dvd. i refuse to buy season 8, because after that there is no more. . . ]

what the Tanner's dont know is they had a long lost daughter. . . .

perhaps i should bring HUSET FULLT for the swedish children?!

I am going to San Francisco to see my beloved; my best gal I met in Boston a few years ago. We are going to TEAR up SAN FRAN LIKE WE DID BOSTON! yes!
Brieanne HATES Full House, but has agreed to show me the house and the park and of course the golden gate bridge! I only wish we could rent a red corvette and drive across it blasting the theme song! [older sister and i have spoken of this. it WILL happen. someday. . .]
then i will go to san diego where my older sister has been for the past 4 years. the rest of the family [parental units and baby sister] will meet us out in san diego for BIRTHDAYS! and thanksgiving!  

AHhh,
so a date has been set for sweden. week of january 3rd. 

i need to buy a jacket. . .
