Driving much?

I remember those days where I would walk to wherever I needed to go and how great it felt. Yah, those days are gone! As much as I love driving, I'm starting to think I need to start walking more again..
Signs that I might be driving too much:

- When my instincts tell me not to walk toward a one-way street
- When crossing a street, I actually stop at the stop-sign
- When hearing a police siren and I walk into the right side of the sidewalk and stop

Yeah gotta let the car rest for a bit!

Goodbye for now California

Shit, time seriously flies!! Ok so Im gonna try to make a quick update for the last week,, Last Friday I went to a place which I dont remember the name of with Juli and all of her friends,, Carmen, Julia, Amanda, Marine' +++.. It's this really cool bar/resturant on Sunset blvd and we had so much fun! Juli left on Monday so I went to her goodbye party last Sunday up in Thousand Oaks, which is actually a really nice place (but faaar away from everything).. Her hostfamily is super nice and so sad that she is leaving (but she is hopefully coming back..) It was really nice and after most of the people left; Juli, Carmen and I were the only ones left and ended up sitting outside chatting til like 10 pm.. Once we started talking about our pathetic love lives, we had to bring all the food back out again! Hah!
Anyway, I finished school this week, which was kind of a relief but I feel bored now (hey that must be a good sign, right?) Finished up my last paper on Friday and hung out with two girls in my exercise class for the rest of the day until I had to work.. We went to Del Amo but I managed not to buy anything, which is REALLY a good thing considering all the stuff I already have! I shipped another 13 pounds-box back to Norway the other day, , , full of clothes! It's hard to decide what to leave here and what to bring back when I leave in October.. I went through my closet and took out absolutely everything I have not been wearing more than a couple times the last months and sent it back home. The only reason I am not freaking out about leaving is that I know I get to come back again. At least I hope so. I am so not ready to leave this place.
Anywayy, on Friday I went to Amanda's place in Santa Monica/Westwood/wherever it was and she threw a big party with many Swedish people, a couple Americans and 1 German girl haha.. It was alot of fun and her house and back yard is soo nice! I ended up speaking with 3 dialacts of swedish, two dialects of norwegian (oslo-dialect + my own), english and a little german!
Today I have just been sleeping in, going to the beach in Hermosa with Alexandra from my exercise class and now I am about to go out for a run! I am off to Hawaii in 8 days w/the family which is gonna be aaaaawesome but also sad since its gonna go soo fast and it will be closer to october by the time i get back (yes i tend to over-think most everything) ah-ny-way, Im going for a run now, LATER!
