I know, I know. I know I've been terribly and horribly lame not to update this blog :( Right now UI'm in a moment when I'm not going forward and all I can do is wauit, since paperwork has a date where it has to be started.
So right now I'm stuck.
However, I'm now participating in a contest to win a trip (!!!) and I would very much love your help! Sadly, the trip cannot be made to Sweden, but oh well, I'll manage :P
All you have to do to help me is go here:

Then, where it says Search you type JIMENEZ, and, this is crucial, CLICK the little pic that appears after the search!
Then, when the big pic appears, press vote :)
You can do this a few times every day if you wish to, you know you love my pic ^^
I actually had a lot of trouble to be able to participate... So I wan't to make it worth it!
Thanks a lot :D
And I promise, as soon as I have something new to say I'll post something more entertaining and substantial around here.

As you might already guess from my prolonged absence, I’ve been pretty tired lately. And you might guess by the title, this is because I’m finally employed!

Pissed at Ikea
Ikea opened
two years ago in my country, and ever since then, it has been my little Swedish
sanctuary. The wonderful place I go to feel a little bit more Swedish, looking

Aaaand of course, to swim in the decadent deliciousness of Daim chocolate, a crunchy butter almond bar covered in milk chocolate, originally from Sverige <3
So, a few
days ago, I read that Ikea had decided to sell only their brand products in the Swedish Store, and how
many swedish people living abroad were very angry at the decision, since that
store was their easiest source for the foods that they had grown up with.
I,

compilation of my favorites :) Some people might not know it, but Swedish music
isn’t just famous for Abba.

Boring Update :)
Yeehaa! It's time for a boring update :D
Remember I was feeling a little down about still not having a job that will help me save money? Well, it seems like that might change this month! I'm not sure what the most popular method of getting a job is wherever you might live, but in the Dominican Republic, the most fool-proof, guaranteed way is through contacts. Someone you know tells someone they know to tell someone else to give you a job where they work.
Well, I moved some of my contacts, and a few days ago,
