Benrik diaries - Monday, Monday.

I overslept. I feel so tired.
3 cups of coffee, going on my 4th. Will it help?
There's this mad thunder and rain outside, as well as many cars.


So, dear readers, as you might have heard there was a Swedish Benrik-meet this past Saturday.

We found:
- M1ndy, Rozebud and Lokomotiv
- Dog-poop
- A sceaming woman who tried to cheat me out of money (I've meet her before - even called the police on her, so I knew better).
- Muffins

Isn't it strange that benrikans are regular people? One would think that weirdos would be attracted to this kind of stuff. But from what I've learned that's not the case.

The meet was a success.
Therefor we're trying to organize some group-tasking for this week.

Chill out, be aware and stay put!

Benrik diaries - About a bike

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bike.
Then I realised that The Lord doesn't work that way,
so I stole one and asked him to forgive me.

Subway Sunday at 11:45 - Saw somebody reading a book about happiness.

Tanto at 13:15 - Saw a kid with a kite in the colours of the rainbow.

I got this new and very sexy mobile phone. The last one completely broke down.

Other than that me and A went to sell our stuff at this market place which turned out to be a very pleasent experience indeed.

This morning I went round my apartment looking for my calendar… couldn’t find it. Clueless as to what to do for this week I had 7 minutes of complete confusion and despair, until I found it. (Yes, I was quite overwhelmed myself by the emotional outburst.)

Anyway, today I'm going with Buddhism (BTW. There's been plenty of tasks relating to Buddhism and I'm sensing a slight religious favouritism on benriks part.)
Unfortunately things didn't start off that well.. there was meat in my breakfast, I ate it and now I don't know how to make up for it.
I'm so very sorry.

Well, peace dudes and dudets!

p.s. I found out about the Frensh song from some previous blog. The correct answer to my question was: Lââm - Enfant Du Monde. : )

This is a test.

Benrik diaries - Cobra Kai

I think I dreamt that my father yelled at me for something I had done (or if it was something I didn't do). The strange thing is that now, half-way into the day I can't decide if it really was a dream or if he really did it yesterday when I spoke to him.
I'm feeling pretty weird about the whole thing.

____________________________________________

I just heard the most amazing French song, it sampled John Berry's theme from "the persuaders". If anyone know it I'd be very grateful? (I forgot to write it down.)

____________________________________________

I'm not tasking this week. It doesn't soothe my personality to go around picking fights with people and besides I did extremely well last week... managing to sell myself on eBay and everything.

One funny thing I found are the simular items to me being sold on e-bay:
- "HEART KEY" 3 Cards from a painting by Jim Smeltz US $6.00
- 3am Art i come from a small town print US $24.99
- ACEO PRINT-SWAN GODDESS-Printed from a painting by Ting US $3.99
- ACEO PRINT- GRACE, a Leo Cow - from a painting by Ting US $3.99
What gave me away!?

My schedule wouldn't allow me tasking. I'm selling a few creative stuff this weekend at this market-thing. Also there's this picnic that me and a couple of friends have managed to put together. And of course I will not sacrifice my bowling-practise. I'm getting better. Although we're not a full team, yet.
I've talked to a few prospects:

"Are you interested in being part of our team?"
"I don't know. Do you have to be good?"
"No, we're mostly aiming to look damn attractive!"


That's where the other team-mates enter the picture.

Did I mention our team-name is "Cobra Kai bowlers"?
Not my idea. J's. By far it's one of his absolute top 3 ideas I have to say.

Benrik diaries - Give me a hug

... or place a bid.
For Christ sake my starting bid equals 5 chewing gums or half a daim-bar.

Yesterday I saw Ojos de Brujo, they were fucking great and you'd be doing a huge mistake not to explore them further.

And then I got home and there was this fire outside my building! (3 cars from the fire-department and 5 slightly confused neighbourghs.)

World Cup starts tonight. Wey... or something.
Still French Open continues and in my mind that's the biggest television-event of the year. Sorrow equals Sunday when it's all over and there's an entire year of waiting until the next one. How will I be able to survive?

1. Eat chocolate and cry (take time to really grief)
2. Solve world hunger (occupy my mind with other things)
3. Sleep for a year (the sleeping beauty-approach)

Damn. I should have recorded the bloody thing.
But that's right... I haven't got a VCR.

Benrik diaries - Selling myself on eBay

First off according to eBay I can only sell myself in Sweden (unless I pay a small fee, which I don't want to do).
I figure I'd have more success internationally.
Bummer.

Me at a bargain!

QX diaries - Pope


I have as much authority as the Pope, I just don't have as many people who believe it. ; )

Benrik diaries - Solen i blicken

Bästa promenadskorna på och solen i blicken...
... vi kommer att gå långt.


I don't know how to translate that.
Just felt like writing it down/being poetic.


Tasking:
Lend my mobile to an homeless person.
I've decided on doing this later.


I had a meeting with my boss today.
I'd give him a weak 9 out of 10 - for all the ways he reminds me of Charlie Brown.

Went to a picnic this weekend. Indoors (as seen in the the picture).
The picnic had a soundtrack - all of us went home with a CD that included a summersong that each perticipent had contributed with. I took Miriam Makebe - Pata, pata. "Ubasapp, weeiosapp, umapasapp.. eeeiiiooo..." You know.
Someone else took Jenny Wilson, Lordi, California love & african rhythms.
The night was a success...

Off to the doctor soon. Nadal playes Robin Söderling later. I might have a beer with some buddies from work.

Oh... but I learned a new word Omnivagant.
Omnivagant - \Om*niv"a*gant\, a. [Omni + L. vagans, p. pr. of vagari to wander.] Wandering anywhere and everywhere. [R.]
As an alternative to Ambivilent.

There you go! : )
