Spring in Sweden



Dear Russell,
The same day that you took your spring picture I took one outside my door.
Happy Spring!

Spring 1st! *thumbs UP!*





Dear Ryn,


Today is the first day of spring. The quarter is over and I'm on spring-break. I have no big plans. Nothing too exciting is happening.

I'm graduating in three months! This summer I'm going to move in with Yayoi and Aaron and find a job being a waiter. My plan is to work my ass off all summer and then fly to Australia (or someplace warm) and join the WWOOF. I hope it happens, it would be so fun!

"Way out"?? Then would you say that Swedes are overly-talkative? Or does that mean they are just overly-polite and use less abrasive words like "way out" instead of "EXIT"?

Did you get a new computer? If you did, you should make some videos!

Love, Russell

PS. I finally finished uploading the video I made of my California Road Trip. It's 26 minutes of cheesy music and bad camera work, but I like it!

Lost in Translation



Dear Russell,
I loved that shaving cream! I used it on my legs till I moved to Sweden. Great stuff! Will never pay money for it though.
Did you notice when you were in Sweden that it is not an Exit it is a Way Out. That says a lot about this place.

Shaving Gel






Dear Ryn,

Do you remember the shaving gel at the dorms? It was several years ago during our second year of college, do you remember?...

Without realizing a mere 120 people lived on campus, Edge sent the dorms seven cases of their new product "Edge Advanced Gel". If you do the math, that gives each man about 45 cans of "advanced Gel". Each guy, and a few of the girls (lets face it, men were not the only ones who needed to save their faces in Mt. Vernon), got a bag full of orange cans.


Seeing as we all wanted to try it, everyone simitaniously went clean cut for a week. It's incredible how shaving gel can turn a hick town to yuppy-ville in just a few short hours.

When I left the dorms I purposely forgot an entire box full of the gel for future residents of Alder House 202. I kept three cans for myself, thinking that it would be enough to last me decades. I still have one left, but it's getting low. :(



Love,
Russell

PS. I still have the camera on my computer. I guess I'll be posting indoor shots from now on.

Dear Russell,
I miss those guys! What are you going to do about your camera?

I heard you had one day of snow. We have had snow for awhile now. We are starting to get comfy with each other.



Love, Ryn

ERRRRRRR!





Dear Ryn,

Was posting the picture in your previous post necessary? HAHAHAHA! I look awful!

Last weekend Danny and I went kayaking and my camera got wet from the sea water. It won't even turn on; however, I did manage to save the memory card. Here is the last picture I took. Don't Yayoi and Aaron look great?



Love,

Russell

Pictures of Sick People



Dear Russell,

I CAN'T believe you posted that picture. We were home sick that day. REALLY SICK!
Love, Ryn
