Finally...
Ok let's just say better late than never...
If you're not interested in pictures you might as well stop reading now cause I have a feeling there's gonna be a few!
3 weeks ago today me and Line left Sweden for the big country on the other side of the Atlantic ocean!
We did have a few bags...
We got really lucky on the flight and got 5 seats to ourselves!
After flight to London and then to New york and a silly load of papers to fill out we were finally allowed in to the country!
Then it was time for a 7 hour busride down to Pittsburgh with an hilarious busdriver who eventually welcomed us to Pittsburgh - City of Champions!
Since we took an earlier bus than planned we had to wait for our ride for 6 hours on the busstation...so we watched a movie and some friends episods!
After a real swedish raggardusch our ride showed up and we went to the airport to pick up 2 brittish girls
1 driver and 4 girls in 1 tiny car...this is how that looks!
And because of the wheather the 1,5 hour trip took 3 hours...
We then had an intensive first week with soooo much information we couldn't remember half if we tried to...
But most importantly I met amazing people!
The first little group we formed was Stef and his harem! Me and Line from Sweden, Beckee and Louise from UK, Lene and Caroline from Norway and our alphamale Stef from Holland!
Stef by the way was amazed that we could speak with the norwegians and wanted to learn so he came up with the word swedgian! Hahaha!
Naturally we had to explore what Indiana nightlife had to offer so a couple of rounds we've been to Wolfies!
On the first saturday we went on a bustrip to Pittsburgh and that is when I fell in love with football! This amazing, fast, physical sport! It was the quarterfinal and Pittsburgh Steelers beat Baltimore! Wohoo!
That is also the day we all walked around singing this song unintentionally after we had heard it a couple of hundred times!

What else...we have been playing pool and table tennis, and had movienights and just hanging out.
Classes our tough though and it took a whole week before we even knew if the classes would be approved by Malmö University so that was kind of frustrating...but now we know what classes we're taking and two of them I like a lot, Introduction to Religion and World Religions, the Ethics class is interesting but really hard and in Christianity and African Religions we have a professor from Ghana with a really thick accent so we're having a hard time understanding him...as if these classes weren't hard enough already...
There is a girl and a boy from France here and the second weekend they hosted a party with the theme your country's colors and as you know I am a big fan of theme parties so me and Line went all in with the yellow and blue!
The party was awesome and when we were leaving Wolfies later that night a saw a guy with a Steelers T-shirt and when I told him I liked his shirt he took it off and gave it to me so I was extra happy the rest of the night!
That sunday Steelers were playing the semifinal against the Jets so we went out to watch the game at a bar and they won!!!

This is the T-shirt I got btw!
It is like constantly snowing here so one evening Stef, Fab and me had a "build a snowman" competition, which I won! :)

E = Elisabeth, S = Stef, F = Fabricio
Last saturday we went to a party off campus, since we are not allowed to have alcohol on campus and learned how to play beerpong! Turns out I'm a natural and me and Amin, the french guy were 6 times champions!! ;)

Now it's bedtime but I think I'm going to upload some more pictures of all the wonderful people I surround myself with soon so you can see who I'm talking about! :)
Oh yea we spend 4 hours a day eating...4 HOURS!!! But it's just beacuse we are always so many and everyone wants to talk to everyone and we're just having a great time! And also I've heard that the canonball is the beach 11 look...
The food is whole post itself so I'll get to that some other time!
