Monetary contributions are needed to save lives in Haiti after the earthquake. Several Swedish organisations are asking for money, including Rädda Barnen and the Swedish Unicef. I don't know yet if the Doctors Without Borders are going there. Most other organisations seems to be religious in one way or the other...

I've been in a weird mood the last days, feeling mentally disattached from everything I'm doing. Especially Monday night I had the odd feeling of only watching what was going on around me, rather than participating, which isn't appropriate for karaoke. I didn't feel it Sunday when I walked in Stanmer Park with M, so maybe the phone call that night triggered it, or maybe the total lack of sleep that weekend.
Stanmer Park in snow was lovely, and it was nice to spend some more time with M. It snowed again this morning. I simply love it.
M has to forgive me for using one of his photos, but it's simply so pretty! Brighton really looks like on a postcard. The sunset was nice but not as pink as the settings on M's camera indicates..
The feeling of not being present where I am started to wear off today, I had a busy and productive day at work but still had time to sneak out during an incubation to build a snow figure with E. It was about my height and E isn't that tall either, but we got the head in place and put a big smile on it's face. Met up with D later and had dinner. I really like my colleagues but it was nice to talk to someone not related to work.. We met Saturday at AS's birthday dinner at the vegetarian pub - that was a great night! AS is a very vivid person so when the club where we'd been dancing closed we went to the shore and tried to lit a lantern, to watch it being carried out over the sea. Lucky for those concerned about the environment it was too wet, or too windy, or both, and it just didn't lit. And since we didn't want to wait in the line for the only club still open at that time we walked over to AS's place and watched a movie and drank wine. It was one of those weird nights that you can never plan, and not everyone would have liked it, but I thought it was very cosy when we all fell asleep in a heap on the couch.
This group of colleagues I'm spending so much time with are a funny bunch of people. They all have strong personalities and are quite different, but still end up being good friends. They quickly adopted me when I arrived as an orphan in the centre. I'm looking forward to the trip to Brussels this weekend.
