The Christmas Bomb
Every year on Christmas Eve, the 40+ members of the extended Johansson Family gather in my Grandparents' small ranch and have a Swedish fish dinner.
Whole sardines, lumpfish cabiar, crayfish, lax and the worst, Lutfisk. The fish has an eight-month journey before getting to my plate. This process includes being dried, soaked in lye, packed in salt and being buried underground for six months. The end product is a clear, jelly-like consistency fish with a pH value of 12.

But the whole evening is redeemed, The cousin gift exchange. This year I made these for my six month old cousin.
It's totally chaos and disorder. The living room looks like a Christmas Bomb.
Merry Christmas
Santa was good to me. I got everything I wanted and more. Today we get to talk to Caj in Argentina. It will be a good day.

Christmas Decortations
I got in a three way fight between a Christmas tree, lights and me. The Christmas tree won. I have wounds to prove it.

Alyssa
I have this roommate. Her name is Alyssa. We are the bestest of friends. We met in August and thing went from there. We scheme and plot a lot. Once she stole my cellphone so I had a reason to go over to a certain apartment.
These two pictures are taken after knowing each other for less then 24 hours and we are already plotting something.
