Another Saturday night



Need I say more? Wow what a drink!!!
The best in ages...


A students advantage ;)

You know... One of the good things being a student is all the different kind of advantages that follows with it.


Well, I won't say that fun all the time, especially not last evening, which I spent at home in front of my computer writing some stupid physics report. I'm still doing the same thing tonight, but (!!!), I got my friend with me ;) A glass of Baileys Caramel with a splash of Minttu.


And the best part? I don't even had to defend it (some might think I'm strange, having a glass alone.. but they wouldn't understand fine liquor even if it was thrown at 'em), I'll just say - “Hey, I'm celebrating, it's just one week left until the first of advent!” ... Cause you all know the big secret, the red thread being a student, right? Every day there's a reason to celebrate something = having a drink or two... or three! ;) Enjoy your upcoming week! Make sure you celebrate something!


... and still goin'


Work = Needed $$$

Gosh, I'm so tired... I've been working this weekend. On Friday I worked from 12:00-24:00 and today I worked from 11:00-19:00. Do you have any idea how hard it is to be standing for 12 hours straight?!

 

Wanna know something cute, my blondie cleaned my apartment and started with dinner along with our friends while I was on my way home from work! Since we missed our regular Friday-pizza we baked it today instead :D And I think there will be a few nice cocktails along with some Buzz! I'm hoping to get the lads to Manésa later tonight, but I think that's a long shot tho :/


Shots!

Friday night = Cocktails n' shots!



A drink anyone?

This weekend has been all about cocktails and food ^^ It's tough being a student around Halloween! Once again, as the regulars we've become, we headed to Pappa Grappa and Manesa. For some reason I was the slow one yesterday, and when the others had finished their first drink, I wasn't even half the way on mine :P Anyway, we decided to bring in a monster, a huge cocktail with Planter's Punch... Damn, it was soooo good!!!

 


Friday = Cocktails

It's Friday finally, and as usual that means a get together at my place ;D It's going to be a weekend full of guests, not mine, but Blondie's. So, why am I bringing this up? Well, there's going to be a quite a few cocktails mixed at my place during the weekend using my bar, I think it's time to finish some of the bottles ;)

 

 

Got any good cocktail recipes? :D Come on, hand them over!

Lill' Friday!

It's been a while since I had time to write anything here. I've been kinda busy a few days with nothing and everything. I've been looking for this book that we need for our physics course – Fundamentals of physics 8th Edition and it's almost impossible to find it. The few ones that the school sold disappeared faster than lightning, so yesterday I skipped a class and headed to town to look for it. In of book stores they sold it, for f**king 1799;- !!! HELL NO! So I headed to the next place who also sold it (but with at least 2 weeks delivery) with student reduction, now it won't cost more than 500;-


Anyway, today I'm school free :P At least on the schedule... So yesterday I headed out with Blondie and his friend for some pizza and a finishing drink at Manésa! Ooops...

 


I don't wanna get up today!

Omg... This is going to be a loooong day! Jeeez my head ^^

After showing our ID's at Systembolaget, as always, we (the gang) headed to my place and baked pizza and played some Buzz, and I promise... I would never cheat! Heh, we also managed to fill the table with all different kinds of glasses filled with liqours and drinks. Beer, cider, Smirnoff Ice, red wine, Malibu, Jägermeister, Baileys, Minttu, Cointreau and ofcourse some Jack Daniel's for the lads ;)
 
 What do you think this mixture will do to your head!?

When I woke up today I could hear the rain pattering outside my window and it's never been so comfy and cozy knowing that I don't have to get up! But, I'm finally up and running since a few hours back and now I just have to deal with my kitchen ^^ I'll let the magic do it's thing and let it wash everything in my oven!

Cocktail Bar - Manesa

When it comes to actually execute stuff that my friends and I decide to do, we really suck... Yesterday we planned on watching the fireworks, again, and guess what, we missed ‘em - again!


There's a carnival going on in town which results in hundreds of stands and even more people running around with beer cans in their hands. I'm not really into that kind of partying, so my friends and I went to our favourite bar Manesa, and ordered in a few drinks. I had an acid drink with strawberries and lime, a special frozen daiquiri served during the carnival which included strawberries, pineapple and raspberry, and I finished off with a damn delicious Baileys drink with Koskenkorva and pure cream!!!


How did you spend your late night hours?


Wednesday - what a day!

After taking the test I was pretty surprised to find out that Emil had fixed two tickets for me and Albert to München Hoben - a huge party with ~5000 students from the university of Linköping and Norrköping. Albert and Emil picked me up and then we headed over there... I think we queued for almost two hours, but it was well worth it! :D 

   


Give me some ideas, plz...

Hmm... I'm out of ideas. I'm tired of the same drinks and cocktails that I always mix together and I need some new recipes. Got any tips?


Not the best picture, but have a look of what's in my bar and see if I have what's needed. Hand over some new lip-smacking recipes so that I can pretend to be a brilliant bartender when everybody is back in town! :D

Back to Basics - SWW g0es "plopp!"

Jag bestämde mig för att slänga mig iväg till till Sthlm och närmare bestämt Ösmo i helgen för att träffa en gammal vän till mig - Ann. Vi slog våra kloka huvuden ihop och samlade ett gäng gamla ansikten för att skåla vilt!

  
  
 

Skålandet övergick ganska snabbt till ploppande - "PLOPP!" och snart var jag hes och utan röst efter allt, ja... skönsjungande! Vi alla började nog inse att smaklökarna inte var vad de varit tidigare under dagen och allt smakade plötsligt sliskigt sött.

Tack för en sjukt rolig helg alla! Och Ann, på återseende innan feb. -10 !
