I’ll follow you! But you shouldn’t feel obliged to follow back because my posts are mostly in Swedish.

Thanks! And that's totally alright! (I understand written Swedish quite well because I tried to learn it for six years. It's trickier when spoken, and I can't really produce much of it, apart from introducing myself and stating my age :D)

Haha! You just gave those people one of the best cocktail party stories they’ll ever have. Not even kidding, I bet they’re secretly pleased it happened (b/c it’s not like it ended badly); everyone needs a good story in their back pocket!

Haha, yeah, I hope so! It is probably true, though, they were so nice  (they probably saw how utterly shocked/petrified I was) and were joking and said it was 'a nice bit of excitement' and stuff, so they probably won't call my employer and have me fired or something so that's good but omg it was so close to a disaster because a few more seconds and the alarms would've gone off and omg I daren't even think about it :D

On my first day at my job I called my own phone from my work phone (see if it worked) and then I looked at my phone and saw that I had a missed call. So I called up the number (to the reception) and asked who’d called me and it was all very confusing

Oh haha :D Last summer I phoned up the head of the company I was working at just before nine in the morning, but I didn't know he was in London, so for him it was just before seven and he sounded cross and that's, to date, the second worst mistake I've done at work. I'm so scared of failure at work that I get absolutely horrified when stuff happens, although stuff does happen and that's life and all, but I'm nowhere near grownup enough to be able to deal with this stuff in a constructive manner, I just laugh and cry. :D

I have done that a million times. It never was cancer in the end though. It probably won’t be in your case, either!

Thank you. Even so, it's terrifying... My family has a long history with cancer, so I get scared...

Something similar happened to my friend. You have to be very vocal and keep calling them and make sure they correct their mistake, and then ask for YOUR money back and a written apology so you can use that if you need it to apply a bit late for something.

Okay, thank you. Oh believe me i will be vocal, i a very angry at them

Doctor Quinn - Medicine Woman

Ah! That makes sense. I used to watch some episodes with my mum years ago. And I'd probably never have guessed this.

[beautywithin16]

Some people live somewhere and then this woman shows up and all the people are like "u not a man" and she's like "stfu" and one dude's like "yeah that girl's awesome" and then there's three un-adults and they're like "u our new mummy" and she's like "that's how I roll". Then the people who live somewhere suddenly need the woman and everybody is happy

I can't think of what this could be. It doesn't sound like something I watch but there's something that sounds familiar so I probably have heard of it. Good job on describing it. :)
