I heard a rumor today. Is it true?
^So in other words the Germans didn't take over your country because you appeased them?^
Do you know that you are a sweet kid?![]()
Ok, since I'm a historian, I have to comment on this! xD
It is true that Sweden was forced to appeasement politics towards the Germans, but we didn't really have a choice due to an inferior military. The Germans would have Blitz'd us from several fronts and then the Jews of Europe wouldn't have had a safe haven to escape to anymore. So staying neutral kinda served a good purpose in the end, especially since people like Raoul Wallenberg (who's a personal hero of mine, by the way) were able to save hundreds of thousands of Jews from the Nazi's by giving them improvised Swedish passports. Basically, politics are dirty, and idealism will get you killed. I'll personally defend the policies, because the ends justified the means.
Also, don't forget that we sent volunteers to Finland in the Finnish Winter War, and accepted a LOT of Finnish children that were placed in Swedish foster families during the war. 🙂 But I know that history lectures can be boring, I just wanted to straighten that out! 😛
Oh and question for Sweed! Did you have fun today at your friends graduation-thingamabob?xD
I heard a rumor today. Is it true?

Awesome! 😀 And yeah, it's REALLY close now!
Will you be celebrating all night long?And will you drunk dial me so I can laugh at you? 😉 😛
Haha 😛 But I thought we sold guns/gun material and stuff to the Germans as well? :O I heard about that somewhere...
Yep! 😀![]()
I'll see. 😉 No promises though, so don't get your hopes up. xD
You mean the iron ore? Well yes, that's the point of being a neutral country. xD We traded with everyone, just like during world war 1. 😛
Just one more day now!
Haha, ok. xD But you are most welcome to do so! 😉
Lol, I see. ^^
And now it's over. 😉 Unfortunately. 🙁 Gosh, I wish I could do it again. xD
Haha, yeah it's a memory for life! 😀 You have to wait a couple more weeks before you get my "graduation gift" though...😉
When was that "camp" you'll be going on, and what will you do before then? ^^
Miss me yet? 😉
Yep! 😀 Hahaha, I see. 😉
You already know when. 😉 And before that I'll do lots of different things, ask on yahoo if you want to know more detailed. 😛
Excited? 😉
Haha, yep, I do now. 😛 And sounds like you'll be quite busy! 😱

Of course I'm excited! 😀
Yep 😛 As I like to express it, my summer holiday lasted for only 1 ½ week this summer.(plus the week in July, when I'm seeing you 😀)

Excellent!
Haha, well, you'll still have a lot of fun I think! 😀 Hmmm... but really? You consider our meeting part of your HOLIDAY?I thought you were supposed to take it easy on your holiday...
![]()
Yeah, I guess I will. 😉
Hahaha lol! xD Holiday does not mean lack of exercising! 😉 (at least not all the time)
I guess you have a point there... xD I just hope you realize what's awaiting you 😎
Right now, my only hope is that the new brush you told me about today isn't MORE effective than the usual hairbrush.xD
I honestly doubt it is xD But no worries, we can get another REGULAR hairbrush to play with as well 😀
Also, did you know that I'll miss you for the next couple of weeks?![]()
Well... I guess anything is possible! 😉 xDHaha, still, what if it is?![]()
Aww. 😀 I did not know that, but I'll miss you too! 🙂 And most of all; I'll long and I am longing for July!😀
Well... I guess anything is possible! 😉 xD
Well, then you have been enlightened! XP And I can't wait either!Usually I like to savour my holidays, but I'm sick of June already!
