I quit my job about 2 weeks ago due to various reasons, and in Malmö its kind of hard to get a job here (i will not work at mcdonalds). If I nit up I can manage the summer with some I got saved up. On the other hand, my dad has gotten me an interview in stockholm next week, which sucks because a.) I have my girlfriend in malmö, and she gets really upset about the thought of me moving to Stockholm. B.) I moved from Stockholm to Malmö to be with my friends, and c.) getting an apartment in stockholm is hard, and I dont want to pay 2k/month, or live in a ghetto.
The good thing about moving is a.) its good job, a big company with a bunch of benefits, and I will most likely be making an ok amount.
I really really like my girlfriend, and I dont want to move from her. But on the other hand, I need to think about my future too...
I started playing some poker recently and its been going ok I guess. Will start grinding again next week. Mtts, cash game?
Summer - get ready
Me top right
So a nightclub got destroyed a few years back in my home town, now they've started to rebuild it and its soon
finished.
Got some friends over at www.husarrest.com that are dj:ing here in Malmö. Check them out, here is a youtube vid from one of their gigs in lund at the university.

1: how long have you been together?
2: is it possible she could move with you?
3: why did they build the entrance way around the trees rather than chopping them down
4: is 8 miles of tiled stairs a good idea at a nightclub when theres drunk people around?
1.) About 6 months
2.) She just go an apartment in central malmö (which takes 3-4-5 years), and is working in Copenhagen.
3.) The nightclub is right by the beach in southern Sweden.
4.) Probably not.

If you are serious with the girlfriend, fuck the job. You can be anyone/anything you want as long as you are happy.

Stcokholm > Malmö so obv move and if take gf with you? What kind of place do you really need if you are going to have to spend $2k a month? Penthouse at Karlaplan?
The club seems nice, gl!
When I lived in Stockholm I lived inbetween Östermalmstorg and Karlaplan, and I would not want to live outside of tullarna...
Anyways Im going to up to Stockholm on Wednesday, and staying until thursday or friday..
so.. its been a while since I grinded - i miss it to be honest. But I'm working full time as a team leader managing a 15 sales people, which is a challenge itself. Met a girl just after new years eve, and we've been together since (not officially though).
some pics from a friends blog (notice that the summer is starting to hit sweden)
my gf and i a few months back
my two roommates and myself
So as soon as I fix my comp im gonna start grinding again, and I might buy a macbook pro soon.
So for the fucking 3rd time in 2 days I'll this again. I've accidently closed Firefox while updating my blog (TWICE).
Anyways 4 years ago I was at my best girl-friends My best (girl)friend and myself
graduation party we took a bag in box (wine cooler) and hung it in the ceiling and sang Bag in da box och thailändska pojkar - when translated Bag in da box and thai boys (which is a supporter chorus in swedish football - not the bag in box part ofcourse)
So anyways before the summer holidays two friends of mine made a song and a video and it got pretty big and they got signed by warner music.
Note to self, this is not a serious video or song - its basically an inside joke.
Bag in da Box - The first video released before they got signed
So they decided to make a christmas song, which they released on youtube a few days ago. The video is even worse than the one before, but its more of an inside joke as I said.
Xmas Tree - Official Video - 20 secs in is my kitchen, 3 mins is my hall and living room
Acoustic version of Xmas Tree on the Radio in Sweden - the guy with the hat is one of my roommates
Other than that I've been learning alot of stuff at work about motivation theories, coaching individuals etc.
I thought I would post some pics from the past month, about 3 weeks ago I was at Diesel (a jeans band for you ignorant people) since my roommate is a photographer www.oscar-photo.com (and
is one of the guys in the Bag in da Box / X-mas Tree video) made Diesels new campaign in Malmö. So a bunch of my friends went to Diesel to celebrate it and what not. Here are some pics of
friends:

I was also at a house-warming-party, one of my friends parents bought a new house and invited us over.

So I really really need to get in shape, I used be in pretty good shape when I was in the army:
Second left in the middle - shaved head
The guy on the right
So I'm gonna start rowing (CREW) again, since I used to be pretty decent at that and my old team-mate is on his way in the national team. Im really looking forward to this!
Rowing the half-marathon 22 km (I've rowed a marathon too 43.8km)
We won the half-marathon - never mind the girls, they're ugly (one is decent though) . iop = Top left.
In Uppsala rowing a 500m race.
Last but not least Pokerwise, havent been playing any at all. I cashed out some money throughout October. I'll deposit again when I feel like grinding again. Oh and I used to sing, or I still do, I play some guitar, drums and piano too. But im actually gonna record a rap/electro tune soon - which should be pretty sick.
Random pics of my (new) apartment for those of you who havent seen it:
A big hello to Fahid (fazi), Jocke (hansen), Jonni (Gummi), Simon (sOah), Erik (pinbaLL), Dav (ggplz), Richard (rikd), and all you other people that keep me company on msn.
So Im enjoying my life, I really like my job, I manage a group of sales-people. It's alot of fun; I got like 25 people that I manage and two different projects, but I'm gonna split the team in two, and just manage one project in the near future. I life in a beautiful apartment in the city.
I am managing a group of about 20 people at the moment. I was thinking about blogging about something useful. I have been thinking about wine, management of people (motivation theories, development of people at work), SEO, Sales - anything sounds interesting here?
163 sq/m2 in the middle of Malmö
Here are my new roommates:
