Chrill’s Life and Rants

The date was June 24th and I was sitting home alone, bored. I decided to ask Cecilia if I could take that 5-hour train trip across Sweden to Gothenburg, not even being too serious. Of course I ended up going there already the day after, with a train ticket costing me nothing more than $35 or so.

So, June 25th, 2:07pm, my train arrived at “Göteborg Centralstation” and Cecilia met me at the platform. After a quick “Hello make-out”,  we made our way to her place utilizing the fucked-up traimrail system Gothenburg has got. They’re not good enough to build a subway, so they shove around some 12 tram lines above ground instead.

Once there, we did nothing for the rest of that day except taking it easy, as we were both tired and had missed each other so much we couldn’t get our minds onto planning stuff. The day after looked the same, but it was June 26th, our 3-month anniversary, and we celebrated that by.. well, no we didn’t really celebrate it.

June 27th, though, we went checking the festival “Metaltown 2008″ held in Gothenburg. Guess who were playing at the time? Bullet for my Valentine was. Since I had no idea they were to be there, I was hugely surprised but we still left kind of quickly. Later that night, I found out that Sabaton had played the same stage some 5 hours earlier and that bugged me a lot. I’ll still see Sabaton live in October here in Stockholm though, thank God.

Sometime during that weekend, we watched The Mist on the theatre (What a horrible ending to that movie eh? It sucked) and went to some zoo-like Central Park-wannabe thing called Slottsskogen (transl. The Castle Forest). I didn’t see no castles though, hah.

Tuesday, July 1st I believe.. Helena and Angelica came to Gothenburg as well, but they stayed with Helena’s cousins, an hour’s ride with bus and tram from us. We decided to meet up in town every day for doing what we felt like that particular day, yes.. Tuesday, we simply met up and ate at Burger King, then left them on their own.. Ah well!

Wednesday took us to the biggest amusement park in all of Sweden; Liseberg. It had quite some largeish roller-coasters, like Kanonen (transl. The Canon) and Balder (some Norse mythology crap), which is a wooden rollercoaster. Fairly impressive one as well. I managed to waste $15 on trying to win a huge block of chocolate. No fortune..

Thursday, we all went swimming at Saltholmen (transl. The Salt Islet) and it was a boring and annoyingly hot day over-all..

Friday, July 4th, Independence Day, was full of action though. Bruce Springsteen was playing the Ullevi Stadium and I didn’t go to the concert since we were going to the movies once more, this time to see Narnia, the 2nd movie with Prince Caspian and stuff. Fairly good, sure. After this, we went back to our places, Helena and Angelica with Helena’s cousins, and me at Cecilia’s mother’s place with Cecilia. That night proved odd, as Cecilia couldn’t get rid of a horrible feeling (she’s had it before and, trust me, don’t ignore her when she does since it’s likely something bad really has happened) but it seems like all was fine. We decided we’d stay up watching a movie instead, so we saw Riddick. Boring, we didn’t finish watching it. Instead, we went to bed and.. Haha, after some fun there, we decided we’d try to sleep.

Saturday July 5th, I went back home.. Earlier the same day, though, we bought some hot dogs and some disposable grill thing. We managed to burn a hole in the most magnificent lawn I have ever seen. Had they caught us, we would have probably been arrested for vandalism or something. We escaped though, luckily! I went home with a high-speed train, a $137 ticket and a 3-hour trip. Yuck. I don’t want to be here, I want to be with Cecilia. I have never missed someone this much, nor have I ever loved somebody like this..
