Family Fun

Last time I was home I scanned my brothers baby-photoalbum and got some really cool photos of my family, especially my grandparents who passed away a few years ago. They were really cool and so nice to us. It was always a treat going to there countryhouse and to their apartment for dinners. I also took some photos today of portraits of them when they were younger, I think the photo of my grandfather was from when he graduated highschool, not sure how old my grandmother was in this photo but she should be in her mid 20's I think. Quite a handsome couple. So anyway, here's some family photos hehe.Lol, I always smile when I see this picture above, coz my grandpa looks like he's done something sneaky or something haha and the worried look from my grandmother; Oh no what is he up to noow!

My brother, caught when trying to make an escape from bed prison.

I would totally say that my grandma had quite a fashion sense.

My brother (left) looks kinda looks like a girl here. Lame.

Ha! My grandpa's djungle hat that he got when he did a stop over in South Africa going on a freighter ship to India.

Grandpa in the navy.


Kents song "Vals för Satan (Din vän Pessimisten). My favourite song from their latest album Röd.




Lägg dig där
Röda majvärmen erövrar stan
Bland fanor, stöveltramp hör jag din puls
Det är då jag önskar att jag kunde
Stanna tiden, tysta alla nätverk, stoppa trafiken
En stilla bön om lugn igen
Att kunna ta besvikelsen

Blås din vind ur din tro på
att tron i sig själv räcker till
Att någon i sig själv kan vara nog
Och jag, jag står maktlös inför kärleken igen
Man blir ödmjuk inför kraften i rörelsen
Om man tror på någonting som du gör
Att aldrig någonsin ge upp

Om jag hade lite kraft kvar att ge dig
Om jag hade lite hjärta att dela med mig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig
Om jag hade lite kraft kvar att ge dig
Om jag hade lite hjärta att dela med mig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig
Så var den till dig

Säg ditt namn
Och din hand den öppnas och sluts
Du lever din dröm i ett hörn, du lever din dröm
Och det är då jag önskar att jag kunde hålla käften
Tysta pessimisten, bara vara din vän
En stilla bön om lugn igen
Att slippa ta besluten

Om jag hade lite kraft kvar att ge dig
Om jag hade lite hjärta att dela med mig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig
Om jag hade lite kraft kvar att ge dig
Om jag hade lite hjärta att dela med mig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig

Om jag hade lite kraft kvar att ge dig
Om jag hade lite hjärta att dela med mig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig
Ja, den var till dig

Om jag hade lite kraft kvar att ge dig
Om jag hade lite hjärta att dela med mig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig
Om jag hade lite kärlek så var den till dig

English translation:

Lie there
Red May, the heat captures the town
Among the banners, boot steps, I hear your heart
That's when I wish I could
Stop time, silence all networks, stop traffic
A silent prayer for peace again
To take the disappointment

Blow your wind out of your belief
That faith in itself is enough
That anyone in themself can be enough
And I, I stand helpless before love again
You become humbled before the power in motion
If you believe in something like you do
To never, ever give up

If I had a little strength left to give you
If I had a little heart to share with myself
If I had a little love, it was for you
If I had a little strength left to give you
If I had a little heart to share with myself
If I had a little love, it was for you
It was for you

Say your name
And your hand that opens and shuts
You live your dream, in a band, you live your dream
And that's when I wish I could shut up
The silent pessimist, just be your friend
A silent prayer for peace again
To avoid making decisions

If I had a little strength left to give you
If I had a little heart to share with myself
If I had a little love, it was for you
If I had a little strength left to give you
If I had a little heart to share with myself
If I had a little love, it was for you
If I had a little strength left to give you
If I had a little heart to share with myself
If I had a little love, it was for you
Yes, it was for you

If I had a little strength left to give you
If I had a little heart to share with myself
If I had a little love, it was for you
If I had a little love, it was for you
If I had a little love, it was for you
If I had a little love, it was for you
If I had a little love, it was for you
If I had a little love, it was for you
If I had a little love, it was for you
If I had a little love, it was for you
