Bad news?

No, I can´t say it´s bad news cuz God is in control. Always!
We discovered some days ago that I need too go back to Sweden to get another visa, I´m leaving in around 10 days…

Of course it´s nice to come back home to Sweden, but really.. Already?!
All though, I have a long list of what I´m gonna bring back from Sweden.
Everything between knäckebröd/crispbread to my pillow and, oh so many things…
Stuff that you might need for comfort, small stuff you don´t even know you are using until you don´t have them around.

Oh, I miss Timbuktus music so freakin´much.
Our internet is too slow to listen to music on youtube.. and all my music on my phone is gone.
Timbuktu is a Swedish music performer, too hard and right on spot!

Love

3 years, today´oooh

My feelings are split, good or bad day?
We woke up 7am too go to church, way too early!

Heat-rashes and “blä” urk!!!

Haha, today our light have had problem…
On and off every 10-30 min.
Well, thank God that we have light now.

Yeah, not a creative day.

Last night we tired to catch up and find some white people without any success.
I wanted to go clubbing, but after been walking for like 2 h my energy was too low again.

In Sweden u are thinking of your heath when your walking, people are thinking u are alert…
Here, you´re poor if you´re walking…
Well, as far as I know we are not poor.

3 years with my boyfriend today, who ended up to be the my man from now and forever more.

A teeny adventure

So, internet has been down for some days.. But I´m back.
(Post from 21/8)
I noticed one thing today, it´s even more exotic when a oyibo waka (walk) alone on the road.
U see, today I did my first “outside the plot”-walk alone. Oh, it was not a long adventure..
maybe 200 meters or so. I went to a close-by bar/shop to buy some cigarettes. Even the boy in the shop looked
surprised when he saw I was without the man of my life by my side.
N200, or if y like 8 SEK, I spent on a pack.

Inside our compound here lives 4 other families, I meet one of them on my way out.
There were dancing and enjoying themselves outside.
I took some funny dancing step to their music.
“Oh, aaaha CHAI.. HAHA”, their reaction showed that they like it.

I love to make people happy,
I´m on this planet to put a smile on peoples face.
Just like one kid we passed today made sure as many as possible saw the white one just passing by.
He made me smile sooo bad, and my waving was too much for him!
He carried some heavy stuff so his head went
up and down in a bigtime nodding instead of responding with a wave.

Oh, I saw a white man in a car today…
I felt like everybody else… I just felt like running after the car, just to say Hi!

And the albino, why didn´t he see me?

Everywhere I go

Oyibo, white person.
Everywhere I go, people seems to like to pinpoint the obvious.
Sometimes I just feel like to be invisible, but still there is a weird feeling of satisfaction.

Two weeks have past by since I arrived to Nigeria, the land of fecundity, and I love it.
To finally be together with my husband again is worth so much more than you can ever imagine.

Oyibo!
It´s like they can´t hold it in, but then the next second some of them look like they are very ashamed, but still sooo puzzled.

I’m everybody’s friend, that´s what I told a girl here that asked me if I was her friend,
well at least until they show me a reason not to be.
Take it the right way, I still love them, but there is a way to love from a distance.
