Football (Soccer)
In the third match in the qualifying round for the 2010 world cup yesterday Sweden played agains Portugal. Before the game the media tryed to create a feud betweed our Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Portugal's Christiano Ronald.
They didn't succeed.

It was a great game! Everyone here thought Portugal was superior, that Portugal would win the game, easy. But no, no, no!
Sweden played really good football, the first fifteen minutes they controlled the game, and thoughout the whole 90 minutes Sweden had the best chances...
To bad the end result was a tie 0-0
And Zlatan is suspended in the next meet in march or something, Portugal - Sweden in Portugal.
Idol 2008...
Ok.. we had the first episode with the top 11 (why there is eleven I don't know but..) and i don't get the theme, idol, five years, the idols got to choose any song from the last five years, that's not a theme, not in my opinion at least...
And now half way in, it's really weird...
I'm back, older, wiser and improved!
I don't know why i've been away for almost 6 months, I've just been doing a lot of stuff, unimportant stuff, but other stuff...
But about TV. I have become a big fan of some new shows. 90210 is really good, and I look forward to every episode, but Privileged isn't up to the CW standard. I've gotten hooked on Terminator: the Sarah Connor Chronicles, Brothers & Sisters is really good, I know I'm two seasons late, but better late than never. I liked Greek for a while, but now in the competition, Greek isn't that interesting. I found Damages after this years emmy's and is longing for the new season. The best summer show was The Secret Life of the American Teenager. I have a really busy TV-schedule this fall!

We have an early summer, but it's just May..
I'm home sick, and don't have the energy to even go out in the garden, but we have a balcony, and we have a permanent sunshine here, so I've got this really nice tan, and I have read alot of books... so if I watch the bigger picture, it's not so bad to just stay at home!!

The only thing that drives me sort of crazy is that I'm missing the last weeks of school, but I could go to school and sit there in the at my desk, but I wouldn't remember what the teacher talked about, so it would be a huge vaste of time...
OTH Back to the beginning s01e05 & s01e06
s01e05 - All that you can't leave behind
Peyton has a really bad day...
Whitey is the conscience of the whole episode, the whole show!
In this epi we find out alot about the history behind the story... the Scott name, Camilla, Peyton's mom, Karen vs Deb... It's a background epi!
I love the ending montauge and the music to it "Many Rivers to Cross" by Jimmy Cliff
s01e06 - Every night is another story
This is a great episode, I recognize the opening scene with Peyton and Haley in Brooks car... Lucas and Nathan come to some kind of acceptance...
OTH Back to the beginning - s01e04 - Crash into you
Ok.. I don't think this episode is one of the better ones.. It feels like it's on repeat or something... Nathan is beaing a jerk and Lucas can't handle it!
Deb was ballanced! It's really a long time ago...
Peyton seams so fake when she breaks up with Nathan... Later on there is an episode where the tables are turnes, where Dan married Karen instead of Deb, and Peyton breaks up with Lucas instead... That scene is so much better than this one...
Does anyone know which epi that is??
I know now!! its s02e20 - Lifetime Piling Up
OTH Back to the beginninng - s01e03 - Are You True?
Brooke in the backseat of the car...
And seriusley Nathan, what scetches??
And Lucas has become popular...
-Maybe he's gay!
-I think he's just nice...
Yeah right!
And I love the part with the basket balls, and nothing else!
mI think it's funny how Karen explain to Keith why Haley always is around... In my world, Keith should already know all this! I know why they explain it, it's for us, but anyways...
And the hazing... I have to say, as I've said before; Nathan is a jerk...
The first step towards Nathan and Haley!!!
"Don't say I never gave you anything" that's one of those lines...
American documentaries
I'm so into ESC at the moment... it kind of sad actually :oops:
OK... so here is the deal!!
I dreamed about the Eurovision Song Contest last night. And when I woke up this morning and turned on the TV there it was, the last episode that lead up to the semi finales. A jury watches the songs and talks about them, and give 0-5 points.
And I watched it!!
What's wrong with me... I know that I like the competition, but it have never been like this before... Maybe it is because I'm home sick and don't have the energy do, well, anything... So I'm stuck with the TV, and in that perspective ESC is great, it's on the whole week and it's nothing that I've seen before. I wrote a few days ago that it's only reruns on TV, and the ESC isn't at least reruns or anything... I don't know..
I have to analyse this further... I'll be back with a deeper insight into my music obsessed mind!!
OTH - Back to the Beginning s01e02 - The places you have come to fear the most
Like I said yesterday Haley is funny- She doesn't wanna go, she doesn't wanna see her high school sweet heart / your brother Dan / the jerk who abandoned Lucas / the father of Nathan the team star player / my wrists eh...
When Jimmy Edwards and Mouth want to interview Lucas and becomes "Banned media"!!
And the first bit of chemistry between Lucas and Peyton - Nice hands - Nice legs!!
Nathan is such a JERK! I cant see past that... though I know why... but still!!!
Damn it Nathan, that CD was hard to find!! It's an import!! Peyton and her music... why did she date Nathan does anyone know???
And the way Lucas looses it! His game... Misery Loves Company!!
I love it, always have, when Peyton asks Lucas if he want to come in, and he doesn't answer and when he follows her, she says she just wondered if he wanted to... That's a couple of great lines!!
I have forgotten how great Jake was... why did they write him out?? Why did he have to leave?? It would have been fun if he had stayed so Peyton and Jake could have been together for real, because I think Peyton is so unhappy all the time, and she deserves to be happy!!
And Brook is so weired... Beyonce for Peyton, is she for real?? When did Brooke change, and became the best friend we love her as??? Did she change gradually or in a blink of an eye??
- It's the rule of life, the prettier the girl, the messier the car, it's a real turn on right?? I used the second part of that line just a few weeks ago when a friend was really embarrassed about her messy trunk! I knew it was from OTH but not that it was so long ago!!
And Nathan has a moment of clarity, when he says that Lucas didn't swing at him, but at Dan... There I saw a glimpse of the Nathan I like... Haley's Nathan!!
And Lucas and Karen is so good together, he has so much respect for his mother... And she has such trust in him, and is so honest! I think that kind of relationship is something to cherish!!
Dan is so... mean! And manipulative. Evil is the right word... and he plays Nathan against Lucas... that's the reason I want him off the show! Let him die from that bad heart, or maybe the accident or whatever... I don't want him in the show!!!
Jake is the one that keeps this show grounded here in the beginning... he has a lot of integrity! Don't let them take it!!
I love how Lucas is the one who pushes Peyton with her art, and tells her that her art matters, it's the same thing that Peyton is Lucas' muse later on, that he can't write without her... I love that they bring that arty side forward in each other... That's why I root for them!!
I miss Whitey! I miss Whitey! I miss Whitey!!!
I can't accept that Peyton had beige walls in the beginning. I'm just saying Red Bedroom Records!
And here comes the porn names
OK Lucas says he hasn't walked away from anything before, but didn't he walk away from the junior league for the sake of his mom?? Just wondering... but it OTH one's not supposed to analyse things to deeply...
When Lucas ripped off the Scott-name from his jersey, that's a good moment, and it will come again!!
Is that fear in Dans eyes?? When Lucas is playing despite of everything???
And Belief with Gavin DeGraw makes this episode even better!!! I love Gavin DeGraw, he's my idol, all categories. And I'm gonna see him live in two weeks!!!
Sweden got to the finale!!
My favourite Bulgaria isn't in the finale. But the Swedish contestant Charlotte Perelli got to the Finale!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZ7U6WcsCRY
Watch her performance from our Swedish competition!!
Eurovision Song Contest - semi 2
01 - Iceland 3/5
A song in the Dance category, with alot of base. They guy looks like a plasic Ken-doll. The song is a bit like Da Buzz (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLjdqhXGo9o a Swedish band) but not as good!!
02 - Sweden 5/5
I'm a bit partial, and I'm not allowed to vote but I think it's very professional live performance, it's close to sounding playback! Charlotte Perelli is better live that recorded!! Have that in mind!!
03 - Turkey 3/5
Ordinary rock, nothing speciall but a good craft by the one/ones who made the song!
04 - Ukraine 3/5
The verse is boring, and it takes a long time berfore the refrain, wich is OK, to take me into the song. The stage show is mediocre.
05 - Lituania -/5
To much of everything! Weird jumps in the intervals and alot of false singing.
06 - Albania 3/5
Nice voice, but a bit insecure.
07 - Schwitzerland 4/5
In the beginning it's a nice ballad, after the first refrain it devellops into a good dance beat. He is a good singer, and they have a good stage show.
08 - Czeck Republic -/5
To much skin! Is it the only way they can sell this bad song to the viewers?? And what's up with that ridiculus tiny fire thing at the end?? Didn't they afford real pyrotechnics??
09 - Belarus 1/5
The singing is really false... The song is good but Ruslan Alekhno is really bad!
10 - Latvia 1/5
I'm embaressed! The song writers is Swedish, and this song is really bad. The group can't sing. And Pirates?? Is that the most original they could think of??
11 - Croatia 4/5
Cute old man!! Balkan Tango and the old man is scratching!!
12 - Bulgaria 5/5
It's cool that they have entered with something as modern as this and the break dancer is really good!
13 - Denmark 4/5
Nice, jazz/60-pop with a guy from Danish Idol and Dancing with the Stars. A real full band on stage!!
14 - Georgia 2/5
Booring sing. nothing special more than really bad english.
15 - Hungary 3/5
A lot like Disney, just plain good.
16 - Malta 1/5
Hyperactive tempo. As stressfull as the music in Tetris at level 23 or something. Isn't a good singer, and the song is really painful to listen to.
17 - Cyprus 2/5
Zorba inspired ethno. I'm bothered by the orange/black dress. Was OK in the beginning, but it didn't go anywhere.
18 F.Y.R Macedonia 2/5
Good voice that's on the verge of false singing.
19 Portugal 4/5
Nice, real good singing. A lot of nice voices, really good!
OTH - back to the beginning s01e01 - pilot
I have an issue with the 16x8 picture... I want wide screen
Junk is bullying Jemmy Edwards... hard to take if one think of what will happen later on.
And the thing with the raves and the rivercourt game is cool... Lucas and Nathan are equals in the beginning of this episode, they even put the winning basket the same way "Scott for the game"
Nathan is a real jerk.. sometimes I forget how much of a bad boy he was in the beginning! They stole a school bus, for crying out loud! And Peyton and Lucas.. do I have to say anything more?? Chemestry!!
How did Dan make the school bus thing go away for Nathan?? Who did he pay off??
Lucas is the perfect son and gentleman...
Haley is funny!! Where did that go?? Just asking...
Dawson's Creek - lmao
There's a tide in the affairs of men! Julius Ceasar, and the quote will come back... give it four seasons...
The whole series is build on the ground off the whole team getting suspended! I havn't thought of it like that before!¨
He should know he's good, good period!!
That's a good one, I miss Keith
And the way Nathan playes with Peytons feelings.. and Peyton sounds weird when she argues with Nathan, she gets better later on but she isn't really in charchter jet...
I love that Whitey is listening to Keith... especially about giving Lucas a chance!
And Lucas says "good doesn't watch sports" - good one!!
Skillz looks weird too, so skinny, so young (and nowadays?? Nanny Deb, I don't wanna go there..
Dan is so creepy!! We know wich way he's on, and it doesn't look good!
Nathan calls the river court, the park... what's up with that?? And then Keith calls it the park too... an then Lucas calls it the river front... I'm so confused!!
I can't get over how mean Nathan is to Lucas...
A murder of crows
A parliament of owls
An exaltation of larks
An unkindness of ravens
Wow!!! The comet!!! Do I have to say more???
First of all, you don't know me!
Second of all, you don't know me!
That's brilliant
We don't even know eachother - maybe that's the point?
"The Aftertaste" - Ben Lee is so good in the scene it's in!!
The build up to the game is great!!! Especially the music!
The music is great over all in the whole episode!!
That fade away in the end of the game, I love how they make that one in both of the champion ship games later on...
"It's not about him" - "I'll be seeing you!!"
Eurovision Song Contest - semi 1
OK

So now the whole thing is on the way! For the first time ESC has two semi finales, there are more countries than ever who has joined the compitition. And yesterday was the first semi final. Most of the stuff was truly horrendus. I wanted Israel and Norway to go to the final, and so they did, but how could the rest of the countries send such crap???

Russia pulled out the big thing, they had the biggest pop-star in the world (but no one knows of him outside Russia, but Russia is the biggest county in the world... so...) and Evgeni Plushenko the best figure skater in the history, according to me at least, and Edvin Marton a wonder on the violin... a bit to much for me.. but still kind of funny! And we get to see the whole thing again on Saturday!!!
So, tomorrow Sweden is competing with Charlotte Perelli and the song Hero.... she is a bit to perfect, but I have to root on my own country, don't I??
If I have to say who I think is best, it must be Bo'az from Israel... 
I'm sick and I'm bored and there's only sport and bad reruns on TV
I've been a bit tired lately..!!
I saw the latest episode of One Tree Hill two day's ago, and I havn't written a word here yet... It goes againt the way I work... hopefully you won't resent me, I already, sort of, resent my self
OK.. the problem isn't really that I havn't written anything, it's that I don't have any energy to even try to remember what happened in the episode... Hmmm
- Lucas got mad, right?? Lindsey is dating someone else, and he took it out on the other basket ball team
- Kate Voegele is back!!! Yay!! Mia is back!!
- Haley seems to have musicians writers block or something
- It was really funny when Peyton threw that water baloon almost right on Dan, I actually loughted!!
- And Jamie is as cute as ever...
- Then there is, Deb and Skillz, grandma Deb and Skillz, I can't really get over that... I thought Skillz had better taste than that, and he can do better for sure!!
That's all I remember for the moment... maybe the rest will come back to me!! (cross your fingers)
or I will just watch the epsiode one more time ![]()
the Sarah Connor Chronicles ep 2
OK
Today I saw episode 2, Gnothi Seauton, of the Sarah Connor Chronicles. I think it was better than the pilot, and had some more structure. I liked that the tempo was a bit slower, when I saw this episode I relized how much they had put inte the pilot, to much in my opinion.
I'm gonna keep watching, but only in the tempo that tv3 allows, and I don't have a need to find the episodes earlier ![]()

And Thomas Dekker is very very cute!
clash of the choirs

I watched clash of the choirs last Christmas. I'm really into choirs and I loved the idea! The last eight weeks the Swedish version has been airing on TV here. Körslaget. The finale was tonight, and Team Cans, with the singer from Hammerfall as the leader won.

He made choir metal! That's really cool!!
During the series here, the press has written a lot about the concept. And I just found out that the concept is Swedish, the Swedish singer, artist and conductor Caroline af Ugglas came up with the whole thing!

And she gets my deepest respect for this concept.
In the newspaper today I read, Körslaget is being exported to the UK, but with the name Clash of the Choirs!
music from Reykjavik - Iceland
I saw this show, it was about the music scene in Reykjavik. The reason I watched the show at all was that I'm probobly going to the festival Way out West in Gothenburg, with my brother, this summer

and I asked my brother wich act he is most excited to se, and se said Sigur Rós, from just Iceland.
I heard a lot of great music during the 30 minutes of the show, Sugarcubes, Reykjavik!, Múm, Valgeir Sigurðsson and Seabear, and ofcourse they mentoned Björk and Sigur Rós... and there was this girl, Lay Low who I fell in love with!

OTH - 516 . Cryin' won't help you now
Did Dan buy that tombstone for real?? Loving husband, brother and father, what bullsh*t! And next to Keith's stone, so unrespectful.
Peyton walked out of her bedroom in only a t-shirt ans shorts, with Lucas there, and the awkwardness was priceless. And then Lucas "runs away"... That's great OTH-moment
Mouth and the sports thing is not so enternaining... I have nothing against Mouth, or Mouth and Millie, but Mouth is, in my opinion, in the show to keep it somewhat grounded, and in that perspective Mouth doing good, defeats his purpose in the series.
Dan/Nathan/Lucas and the heart thing... come on, get over it. Nathan has been angry at Dan for three seasons before, and we're going down that road again... And Lucas tried to give Dan the benefit of the doubt a long time ago, and he always proved to be even worse than everyone thought every time.
And they brought up Peyton biological father. I loved how she explained why she don't want to meet him!
Dan to Nathan - You have to reinvent your game
Nathan to Q - You have to reinvent your game
"3's are better that 2's" - I second that!
OK, I know this is a little low, but Lindsey's hair was really ugly...
Back to the roots: Gavin DeGraw - In Love With a Girl
And the characters is growing up! Get rid of Dan so we can see Lucas, Nathan, Haley, Brooke & Peyton be adults! And for that we need to get rid of their parents! The writers got that in season 2 when Mr and Mrs James bought their motor home and left the show, so that Haley could be independent!
Peyton reading the ending of Lucas' book with tears in her eyes. And Lucas' voice over of what is written in the book, so we all now know what the "comet" meant to Lucas!
