It was the end of a very long pair of weeks "readjusting" back into the swing of classes for everyone. On the way home from school Friday after classes Berwald and Tino stopped at the grocery store. (Ivan and Erik had taken to riding with Mathias and Siguard to school) They stocked up the pantry and he decided a "Family Night" was in order and he ( Read more... )

Well classes have been back in swing almost a week now and it's almost like another world going to classes again.

The plus side of having a car is no walking or riding the open air trolley in the rain, but driving with a brace is annoying. But at least I've been able to loosen the knee joint so I can bend my leg some this week. The brace is really ( Read more... )

Okay I prefer my boyfriend's Moomin fetish to this...

Seriously... What the HELL IS THIS?

This is what happens when I cannot sleep and we have a separate office area in our bedroom where I can surf the net and not wake up my boyfriend. This.. I don't even know. The Finnish People seriously rival the Japanese when it comes to CUTE x9000 weirdness. ( Read more... )

It was Thursday, late morning and Tino, Siguard and Mathias had taken the car grocery shopping, Ivan was taking a nap after breakfast and Erik was out in the back garden trying to make what appeared to be a bird house of sorts. It was sadly pathetic looking. Berwald noticed this and made his way slowly to the garage. He was no longer using his ( Read more... )

Berwald, even for having lived exclusively on the island for the past five years, had never accumulated a lot of "stuff".  He never bought much for himself that wasn't of a "practical" nature. So his boxes were mainly clothes and those were already hanging up in his closet. He and Tino had His and Hers His closets in their bedroom which was lovely ( Read more... )

I thought I should take a minute to update my journal, I know Peter and Matthew are especially worried and that you both read my journal.

It's been a really long week and weekend and while I won't leave details in my journal here I just wanted my friends to know that Tino and I have moved out of the dorm, I bought a house here on the island and you' ( Read more... )

It took all day and a lot of "tips" to moving men, but all of their belongings had been packed and moved to the new house. Berwald had Mads drive the new car to the new house and it looked tiny parked in the three car garage all by itself. Now however, Berwald was standing in what was now his and Tino's bedroom, surrounded by their boxes and he ( Read more... )

 Berwald spent HOURS on the phone. Channeling all his energy into moving "the Clan" out of his tiny dorm room into something a lot more spacious and a hell of a lot more secured. They were all rather paranoid now. And as long as he kept himself busy he didn't have time to panic or have anxiety issues. So long as he was in "Papa-Bear" mode, he could ( Read more... )

Getting off the Trolley was harder than getting on... Then there were the stairs, two god damn flights of them.

"Jag är jävligt trött" Berwald complained as he collapsed on his couch in their over-crowded dorm room. Hana was all over him and he paused a moment from bitching about hopping up all those stairs to shower some affection on the excited ( Read more... )

Berwald opened his eyes, the sun was up, but not shining this rainy gray morning. Even the skies reflected how he felt. Tino was curled up in the chair beside his bed, one hand resting on Berwald's arm. Well, he presumed that greenish blur in the red chair was Tino, he knew how that hand felt on his skin. God, what a mess his life was right now.

He ( Read more... )
