I was wondering what the oil candles were for when I saw them lighted in broad daylight a week ago. When my friends and I passed by the Domkyrkan, we stopped and looked around the church premises and admired these lights on the ground. A woman approached us and showed us some pink ribbon products. [...]
Some have claimed a few weeks ago that fall was upon us. For me, the sign of fall starts with the leaves of the trees turning yellow. But I don’t actually notice right there and then. When they start to fall on the ground, it’s the time I could tell that they’ve changed colors. I can’t help it but cold [...]
I wished I could take a break from teaching without compromising my job as a teacher. You might be wondering how on earth could I do it. To quit working would be the only way to make my wish would come true. But it was not the way. Part of my job is tutoring or [...]
I was enjoying the beauty of these yellow flowers and while I was doing so, I suddenly thought it will not last. In a couple of weeks, they will start to wither and disappear like they have never bloomed. It happens when fall comes around. But I don’t want to think of that now cos the [...]
If there’s a social media site that I consider myself totally hooked on, it’s nothing else but Twitter. I update my status on it a couple of times everyday than my other social media accounts. I find Twitter more engaging and I feel like I know what’s happening in the world by reading other people’s tweets. [...]
This may not be the first chandelier ever made but it certainly belongs to the past centuries home light fixtures.

It seemed to me that it had real candles as lights before but they were replaced by electrical ones later, [...]

Not everybody visits France for its history, or even because they are visiting a friend though. Some go there for the casinos. Despite the fact that different types of gambling, [...]

It’s my first time to join Vår Ruset yesterday at Slottsskogen (park). It’s a yearly race for women here in Sweden and Gothenburg had its turn yesterday. It happens in the month of May when Spring is at its best. All women at work or in different organizations are welcome to join. Unfortunately, we didn’t get a bit of luck [...]
We thought our final gathering at work this time would be uninteresting since we were told that the administration would not be treating us a free Christmas smorgasbord (julbord). We were instead told to have potluck, which sounded more or less pleasing to everyone. But it turned out to be a smorgasbord (smörgåsbord) of international food culture. From pasta to pirogue, spring rolls [...]
This autumn break has been relaxing for me despite the paperworks I’ve needed to be done. But that’s the life of a teacher – working a little on school breaks. We’ve had to work for three days this week and yesterday, the final day, was a competency development at the Swedish National Museums of World Culture. The [...]
