Posted by johansundvall in Eventes.add a comment
I was kinda stunned that when i search for the translation for “Valborg” i came across that its called Walpurgis in English. Hmm ok never mind. Today is Walpurgis in Sweden and that means that its a half day at work and then a long weekend. So no work on Thursday and Friday. Yay?
Tonight im going to a friends house for alittle party in the company of some good friends.
There will be a theme to this party and its “Hats”. Think the evening will start out with some dinner with my dear friend Rasmus and later on go to this “hat-party”.
Don’t really know what else to say right now.
Ohh i almost forgot. Yesterday was the premiere for this years golf season for me. I played on a very beautiful course called Rotebros Golfklubb. It went really well considering that it was the first time i held my golfclubbs this year. A promise I have made to myself this year is to get out on the fairways more. I really enjoy playing golf and I really need to do it more often.
If anyone was wondering how nice the weather was in Val Thorens while i was there I will soon post some pics for your asses just to make you jealous.
Write again soon.

Hello everyone!
Its has been a while since i last wrote. It is a number of things that has effected this outcome, but the bigger part of it is that I have had alot at work and I have been on vacation.
2 weeks ago i was in Val Thorens to vist one of my dearest frinds Jonas, who has been there for 5 months working as a waitor. The sun was shining on us for most parts but for 1 and a half day is snowed witch acually was in our favor. I had a great time and met some relly nice people and of course I did some magic aswell.
To make a short breif on where I am magic wise. I can say with ease that the passion has not deminished one bit. If anything it has grown in to kinda an obsession. All spare time I have alone I spend with cards and for some time now even coins. I went to Blackpool and visited the biggest magic convention on earth and I had a great time and go so much material that I can practise till then end of my life.
Also one of my friends is putitng up a magic show on Teater 3 ( www.teatertre.se ) this sunday. I will ofcourse be attending to support him. I encurage everyone that reads this and have time to visit this show. Its called “Dont do this at home Magic”. Im sure that its going to be a great show.
Well i have some things I need to attend now so il update soon again. And this time I will

A couple of days ago me and 2 of my friends (Jonas Haglund and Erik Jansson) booked our tickets to the 2008 Blackpool convention. Flight and hotell are all done. Now its just the convention pass that we have to book. But there is really no hurry to do that considering that the convention is in Febuary.
Im really looking forward to Blackpool. Its gonna be great meeting all the people i made friends with on MagicWeekend. But like I said, its a long way to go before its time to get on the plane for 3 days for magic.

Magic Weekend! October 30, 2007
Posted by johansundvall in Eventes.add a comment
Every year (except for last year) in Sweden/Lund there is an convention called Magic Weekend.
I attended the cenvension this year and all I can say is. WOW. The spirit was great and I made alot of new friends. I even learned a thing or two.
The great thing about going to events like this is not only to you meet new friends and learn new stuff but you get to se some on the worlds best performer. Some of the pros that where attending this year was Dani DaOrtiz, David Stone, Dion and Gaston. Thees acts where some of the best i have ever seen. Dion, that i have never heard about befor, this and amazing act that really stunned me.
Some of my friends and I even planned to go to Blackpool in febuary. That is the biggest convention on earth (or somthing like that). And as stunned as I was over Magic Weekend, Blackpool is going to be awsome.
