This post used to contain pictures, but due to new storage limitations from WordPress, I had to fix the problem and decided to create a new blog that works as an archive for all the posts from my two years in California. This full post can be found here.

I’ve finally seen Maroon 5 live and that was awesome! I can’t say that my mood was at its very best the whole night but I had such a nice time and it was so nice listening to good music with a pair of warm arms around me.

What wasn’t so nice was traffic. Yesterday I really hated Americans because of their love for cars. It should have taken like 50 minutes to drive down to Chula Vista normally but last night it took us two hours!! I kept my my mood pretty high, but I felt so bad for Lovisa whose ticket I printed for her. She was waiting outside for almost 1.5 hours for me and all alone. I can’t believe the other girls left her there for an hour!! She was happy when we got there at least and she didn’t miss Kelly Clarkson, just the other two artists who I don’t even know who they were.

Kelly Clarkson was really awesome. I used to listen to her a lot when I was younger but she still makes awesome music and she really knows how to sing live.

Randomly, we ran into the other girls between Kelly Clarkson and Maroon 5 and they were sitting in front of us. Lovisa joined them and me and Chad stayed so we could be alone. I’m glad we did, it was so nice just him and me.

Maroon 5 wasn’t as good live as Kelly but it was still amazing. I’ve seen Adam Levine in real life! Can’t say I saw too much of him from the back, he looked like a tiny ant, but it was still very cool. Couldn’t get any good photos though…

Driving out of the parking lot was hell. It took us 45minutes just to get out of there. And my GPS was stupid and wanted me to take road that didn’t exist and wanted me to drive around in cirles. It’s too old… But the freeway home was nice, it always goes so fast driving the I-5 north. Didn’t get home until 1 am and as soon as I lay down I fell asleep.

This morning Chad let me sleep while he got up to study and when I was awake at 9 or 10 we made breakfast and the rest of the day we sat in his couched curled up together, him studying and me reading and finishing the fifth Mortal Instruments book. And I’m okay with the next one not coming out until March next year. First time I’m not upset that I have to wait. So now I’ve started reading I am Number Four by Pittacus Lore. I saw the movie like ages ago and really liked it. I think I will like the book too. I don’t think I’ve ever read a book I disliked, haha!

Yesterday morning I skipped beachvolleyball. I’ve been sleeping like crap this last week so I thought I needed a really long sleep in, which was awesome. But when I woke up at 11:30am and everyone wrote on FB that it was over 30C I regretted it… Couldn’t it have been cloudy and cold the one morning I decided to stay in bed?!

Anyway, the weekend was fast as usual and very nice. Things going on all the time and the next big thing is Vegas on Friday!! I’m so excited. Today I finally booked the car for the trip, but not with Hertz 24/7, but the normal Hertz. But I got a pretty good deal but now we have to pay for the gas. The problem was that on Friday my second Temporary Driver License expired which means that I couldn’t rent a car with 24/7. DMV should have sent me a new piece of paper but I never got one. So I guess I have to spend my freetime tomorrow in a phone line… I will ask about my real plastic card while I’m at it, but it might be that I have to call the immigration center instead. But I will call, so irresponsible of them not to renew my temporary driver license. And why is it so hard to send me the real card? It’s been five months now!! I hope I will get it before I go home to Sweden…
