Vaccination day!

Thursday was my date with the doctor...I could just hope they would be nice to me^^
I have no fear of needles so I felt as if this was just a piece of cake.
But I do have a small fear of fainting after wards, which have happened before,
so my mother followed me there.

I was right all the time! It WAS a piece of cake! Didn't feel strange at all.
And better up, my doctor, was a real jem. She was so nice to me
and that is important since most of my meetings with her kind have been
very bad. She talked to me about why I am taking this shot
and she was impressed of how much I knew about.



The shot that I took was called "Twinrix" and was one out of three.
By taking this I make myself sure of not getting Hepatitis A or B.
These deseases infects your liver and can be very dangerous.





I know I said it didn't hurt me to take the shot...I WAS honest..I didn't feel anything
while taking it, but right now it feels like my arm is about to come off!!
Maybe she hit a muscle or something.

Well, well..

Publicity ... what would anyone be without it?



I know it might be hard to see
but in a google serch
with the words : aids free that's me
tiped in, our blog came up as a number five or six.

And if you click on pictures
you will see that A picture of me
is ready to be seen :D

And if you search : Star For Life
You get pictures of the fotboll players
in the swedish team Malmö FF.
The great thing about that team
is that their shirts are covered with
the Star For Life - star.

I don't think Star For Life
is unknown to that many people
anymore...Mission Complete! :D

Now that I have taken my first
vaccine shot
(the day before yesterday)
I feel close to South Africa.
Or closER anyway..

It is really my dream,
and I feel so much for it because
I feel good about helping Star For Life

What's on my mind?

Since school ended it has become even more clear to me
that I am going to South Africa in November.
It is one of the major things in my life right now
and I promise there is a lot for me to think
about even without this!

This Thursday I will get the first
vaccination shot out of three.
And we, my family and me
are seriously thinking about renewing
my passport, since I don't really look like
myself in my passport picture.

But the one thing that is hard about the journey
is tha fact that I MUST stay in the sun this summer.
Usually everyone is told to be outside
but to be careful about getting to sun on their skin.
But not me! OH no!
The thing is that I am some what sencitive
when it comes to the sun
and I usually get really large skin rashes
which hurt very much.

So, if I am to survive in South Africa
I must prepare my skin for the sun.
Voila, Frida must stay in the sun...

Hopeless..where is the nearest swimming pool??

Summer work...

The summer is really here
but the work dosn't stop just because
school has.

We have inherited some work from the other groups
and it is going well, if you look at the situation..
(What that means, I leave to you to figure out ;) )



We are selling these stars and all the money goes to our project.
Up until now, I have sold about eight of these
and I don't know if that is much or not.
But we have many more to sell.

The bag that we got contained 94 stars
but one was broken so there were really just
93 of them to begin with.

And if we are to sell every star
we will get 2790 kr more.

That would be a dream come true..

Update 3.0

Now is a time of confusion.
I cannot really say what I am feeling
but I would describe it as a bit empty
and maybe a bit sad..but then again..ofcours I feel happy!

Some days ago we ended our second year at
Johannes Hedbergsskolan.
That means we are going to be seniors next year
which means we will have a lot more time
on our hands to work with this project.
But one thing, that feels a bit sad is that
the Star For Life-project groups from 3th grade
are leaving.

We will not have their support in the things we do
and we will not be able to laugh togheter with them.
This also puts a bit more weight on us.
We are taking over their projects with selling
the Star For Life-stars and Lhengiwes necklaces.

But we will be fine...I have hope for us.

Update 2.0

May 20 we had a sort of round up on the concert.
Me and Rebecka went to a meeting
with the graduating-group the day before
and there we got to know how important
it is to talk about all the things that have been done.
Such as what went good, what went wrong
what can we do better next time etc.

So over lunch we took some time
to look over what we have done
when it comes to the concert



May 25 was an exiting day!
We had a lecture at Kunskapsskolan and we were all exited to go back there.
There was just one tiny little detail that made things complicated...
I had almost lost my voice completly!!!!!!!
How could this be!?

Well, there was nothing we could do about it
so I just let my to friends in shiny armour
take my spots to and they did it perfectly.
I just stood and listened to everything they said
and when I thought they had forgotten something
they said it and I am happy to say thay don't really need me.

May 29 I hade gotten my voice back and just in time for our very last lecture.
It was a sad feeling leaving the class room at Kunskapsskolan
for the last time when we have been there
about 5 times.

But we had a fun time beeing creative
when the computer didn't work with us.

We have learned a lot from doing these lectures and
if it is possible we will do it again next year.

Ooops, I did it again

I know, I know!
I am hopeless at keeping this blog updated for the time being.
The thing is, so much have happened lately that
I have had problems coping with grasping everything while
writing it down at the same time!

But I am here now to tell you all about it :D

On may 14 we had a long day. We had a lecture at Kunskapskolan in the morning
and it went quite well. We are in to the routine now so we all know what to say
and when to say it.

 

And in the evening we had our concert! After weeks of preparation and long
hours of discussion between our group and the Gospel Choir
that was going to sing the day had finally arrived.
And I was extremly happy but then again super nervous!!!!

Me and Moa started out in my place to just settle down a bit
relaxing with a film and some nice ice cream. After two hours or so we fixed
our hair and dresses. We looked superb.

   

Before we started out I got so nervous that I almost fainted.
I feel a bit ashamed of it now, but if you think about it
the concert was something that ment so much to me.
It was my idea from the beginning
and it felt like I was showing the world my baby!

   

The choir sang so beautiful that I forgot that I was nervous when we sat down.
I just could not have asked for anything better!
Joyful, Blessings and Oh Happy day
was just enough to make our day
a...Happy day!

Our speaches about Star For Life and HIV/AIDS
went well and we just decided that it was going to go well,
that we were not going to be nervous and that
we were going to enjoy every minute of it.
And we did. I can still remember the joy
and love that I felt inside.

   

And one thing that I hope everyone enjoyed was me singing
Nkosi Sikeleli and speaking in the end.
I loved standing up there, singing for all I was worth
and just showing the light that is inside of me.

By having this concert we collected about 5000 swedish kronor.
This is amasing.
We also sold some of Helengiwes necklaces
wich gave her about 400.

I would call this a sucess...
