Barcelona, mi amor...

That's right ladies and gentlemen, I raided Barcelona!

Gathered my troops, consisting of a Latvian brainmelter, a Danish crazy person, an English ninja and a Swedish mascot. Then it was time to jump into the battle wagon, Phils car, and go to Malaga airport.

Alright I can sit in the middle... wait a minute!

06:30 the trip took off, from Kings Warf. Johan took the front seat, and I of course didn't blink before I captured the middle seat (with one girl on each side... gigidy!). Problem was... I realized there was no belt. Well, heck. If I die I die... At least I will get 4000 virgins if I die...

Qixiang, wtf are you doing here?!

Finally at the airport, we ended up in a huge cue at the gate. Talking a bit about this and that, suddenly getting interrupted by a couple of famous faces! One of them was my flat mate Qixiang, whom where flying to Italy the same day. I had no idea he was flying from Malaga. I thought he was going to fly from Gibraltar, since he has this Chinese VISA problem.

Entering the plane, this fucking smell reminded me of how much I hate to fly. And yes, it is pretty much only because of this smell. Like kind of dry air or something. It fucks my head up. Then the seats are never really comfortable. GAH!

Arriving at Barcelona after just an hour or so, was really nice. We immediately realized what an awesome town this was, even if the weather wasn't optimal. Not long after we had sat down, drinking the most expensive sangria in my life, Nick finally shows up. HEY Mr. Fist! How you doin'?

A BEER MACHINE! OH MY!

After having some food and getting lost near the cathedral district, we finally get in touch with the people we are renting the apartment from and can get some assistance finding the damn place.

Shit, this place was awesome. Really small, but smart floor plan! Double bed + a bulk bed + A sofa for short people (yes, for Phil) and most important of all: A BEER MACHINE! Johan was more enthusiastic than me about this machine, but we all enjoyed it's juices flowing down our throats. It was almost like being in a really awesome porn movie. MOM AND DAD, PLEASE SKIP THIS PARAGRAPH IF YOU ARE READING!


After warming up at the apartment, the following happened:

(really dodgy, nick-looking, place)

Da Buzz, Da Cold, Da Fantastic!

The next day we ran down to this huge Cathedral to inspect how long the cue was + how much it cost. We did some measurements, bought a coupon thingy and then jumped onto the first tourist bus we could find.

Finding the Science Museum thingy, with a rain forest garden in it!

City hall (I think) motha fuckas!

We finished the day off with some more partying, in this goth club Nicky found. Pretty awesome. Some really strange things happened there and they were actually playing some Swedish emo goth music. Was surprised when I could understand the lyrics :D

The last day we went shopping like hell. I found lots of nice things and now feel quite like a snob or something, buying that expensive stuff. Never really invested that much into clothes before. Please don't ask how much I spent...

After, we went to this Asian wok place. Really nice food. Some of it I had been missing a lot, since I haven't been able to find anything of that quality near Gibraltar. If anyone knows a good place (I know the Wok already, but this place was way better imo).

Bloody fights, and I missed it!

When me and Vlada had gone home to rest, the rest of the guys went to a couple of dark and horny bars. Apparently there was a big fight there between a drug dealer and the bar owner. There was blood and stuff, and police came. Can't believe I missed it. At least I didn't miss the one in Gibraltar yesterday... At least now I know we got a Titan in our company ;)

Just a little note about Håkans house warming party: AWESOME! See pictures here!

Who put poison in my drink?!

I hate being sick! Ok. Who doesn't. But still, from my perspective I'm more important than the rest of you, so please feel sorry for me.

Anyway, I had a, otherwise, great weekend with our Coach Johan Storåkers here in Gibraltar. Starting with the house warming party of Johan (Renner), ending with a steak at Gauchos tonight. Well, at least everyone but me. I tried to eat a Ceasar Salad but failed miserably... I had like three bites and then I was full. Weird, considering I only ate 5 Yoghurts the last 48 hours.

"Fuck this, I've had enough!"

Okay, eating antibiotics for over two months is not fun. First, I can't drink, then I can't eat and now I can't eat again! I am suppose to take this shit until the next appointment, which should have been two weeks ago, but I haven't heard anything. This shit is doing me more harm than good. Actually, more harm than what I'm actually taking it for!

"Where are my four little friends?!"

Someone got a little bit drunk last Friday... or some people. Or.. everyone but me! :( It was the coolest party EVER and I couldn't drink! DAMN DAMN DAMN! I hate when that happens!

Oh yes, there were many more people than what is seen in the pictures below ;) It was NOT a sausage fest!

Oh, yes - the quote is from Vlada when she lost her glass of Sangria, containing "four little friends" (pieces of fruit). Some people tend to get quite cute when they are drunk, don't you think? ;)

As someone might kill me, I will only put a few pictures out from the party, but if you ask nicely, I might show you some really funny images of my flat mate ;)

"Wow, this one has both sex and violence! Bi-winning!"

I just watched the first episode of the new sitcom "Game of Thrones". It was pretty good actually. I really like the concept and it really has this special feeling. Not only because Boromir is in it, but also because it's pretty much uncensored violence and sex, making it really authentic!

I highly recommend this one... it's like "the new Heroes" or something. Speaking of popularity potential, not about super powers.

Hot, high and wet...

Summer has come! We had our first really hot days here in Gibraltar. Of course we spent them at the pool, what did you think?! Sugar has started to have some really weird effect on me by the way... I should warn you guys. Really, I'm not kidding.

On the Saturday Qixiang, Vlada and I did something on main street... can't remember what. Wait. Yes! We ate Tapas at this place and realized we were 10p short on the bill. Well, fortunately we walk pretty fast, so they didn't catch our little cheeky trick. To celebrate that we saved 10p, we hit the pool area in Kings Warf. Awesome.

Qixiang hit his head in the bottom. Quite funny... for me at least. :)

"Strike again!? Let's bust the mother fuckers knees!"

On the Saturday evening, after trying out the pool, we had a Swedish gathering. We met these crazy swedes, with some crazy attitudes. Don't get me wrong, I liked them all! Especially the funny little girls one of the chicks brought with her. Probably in the same age as Pelle and Natalie's kids... maybe they will get along. It's about time they get some girlfriends anyways.

Aaaanyway! I was the second best bowler, after this damn Thomas guy... son of a bitch. I was tempted to just "slip" and accidentally throw my bowling ball towards his knees. What? You think I'm a bad loser?! FUCK YOU!

After the bowling, we hit the fabulous restaurant Gilberto's or whatever it's called. Kebab place. Rebecca's idea. Then it was time to go premium bear hunting (yeah, I actually mean BEAR). I think the place is called The Anchor Bar, on the back side of Water Gardens. A Swedish really awesome, bear looking guy owned the place. Gave us free shots, he did!

"Håkan, give me more money!"

Of course, I didn't have anymore money, so I had my bitch pay for me. That's how I roll.

Had an awesome time though!

"We need to get the retarded bird out of there!"

The next day we all pretty much went to the pool all day, after enjoying an English Breakfast at Lord Nelsons of course and then an nice ice cream in the sun.

Really hot weather. Both me and Johan contaminated the pool as well... finding this RETARDED SON OF A BIRD! Apparently it was trapped in between some stuff. We tried to discuss how to get it out, but realized we care about our eyes too much and went back to the sun bathing chairs thingys. Fortunately some dude came later with a net and got the bastard out of there. Cool.

That's all! Oh yes. On Thursday I'm playing the national championships in badminton with Jun. Wish us luck!
