Grown up points.

In Sweden we talk about Grown up points (vuxenpoäng) that you get when you do something grown up, like buying a house, full time employment, marrying, having heaps of loans, saving money for when you get old and so on.

As you probably know, I have very few grown up points. I do have heaps of student loans, but no permanent home or employment and such. I still feel like a 10 year old at times. I want someone to take care of me and cook my food at times and take all the responsibilitys that an adult has. I also have an extension span of a child.

Yesterday happened something that shows how I'm more like a child then an adult. The other day I got some soap-bubbles in a toy store. I have always liked blowing bubbles outside just while walking and I done it more since I moved from home. Just spreading bubbles into the world and (usually) people become happy when they see bubbles. Even inside a bar. Trust me, I've tried.

So I was walking down the street on the way to a bar where I was going to meet with some friends. I'm so excited that I have bubbles again so I blow many as I walk. I stop looking at anything else then the bubbles and there is a big stone on the street that I fall over.

It most have looked very funny, me spilling all the soap on the street, my blue dress flying in the wind as I fall and my chocked look at my face. I fall and can't really get up for some seconds.

Sinead, Smooth and Robyn are there and they help me up. I've hurt my lip and hands, I tell them and we walk to the bar me just a bit bruised. I later feel that my knees are hurting and wash them off to see big blue bruises on them. Not that cool.

So a lesson to all you kinds out there: Blowing soup-bubbles can be dangerous!

Look where you're walking while you do it or have someone responsible to look on the streets for you.

I will try to follow my own advice because I will get new bubbles.

I'm not so grown up just because I'm 25.
