Last night, when I was coming home from work at VG at quarter past three in the morning, I saw the morning sunrise, and it was a beautiful sight. But it's getting harder to sleep because the sun sets at 9pm and rises earlier each day (perhaps 10 past three today).
Although work at VG is tiring, I love it because I get to meet people whom I probably will never meet but for working at the pub. The Swedes are usually really cold and unfriendly, but now I can count a few of them on my fingers - E, the next 6M, A (the current 6M) and his little brother, and S the bar master. It's amazing how friendly they can be when they are drunk - I met S are Varmlands one Friday night and he was so pissed drunk it was funny. I never thought he could loosen up because he looked so fierce and all, but I guess it's what alcohol does to you.
Funny how I never really drank when I was home, mostly because I wasn't allowed out at night, but now I just gamely drink up when it's served to me - tonight we all drank a bit of Bacardi with Coke while watching a movie and eating popcorn on the couch. And the day before, E and I finished up a bottle of white wine after work because he said it would go bad if it was left open till Wednesday. But mostly I stick to Vodka or pear cider, because beer still tastes pretty darn awful to me.
I really love this little town. I guess what I will miss most is my freedom and independence - I like the fact that I do not have to account for my whereabouts to anyone (except maybe Aurelie because she worries when I come home late from work) and I get to come back however late I want or choose not to come back at all ;). Anyhow, I guess all I can do is make the most out of my remaining days here - I really will miss everyone in Ekeby when I'm gone, especially now that everyone is finally getting along with each other. Oh, it makes me depressed just thinking about it already.
