echo..

anyway..woah..the copenhagen weeks is officially over!!
thos were some loooong, brooooing, lonely days!
I pretty much stood on the second floor, all alone, everyday for more or less 8 hours..turning hangers and...turning other hangers...then turning the first hangers again..
i now know Weekdays collection better than Monki's...
workes 7 days in a row, today I'm off, and tomorrow I'm working again, but at Monki, so thats fun!!

I dont know what to do or write right now. I'm sooo tired, and I have alot of things I should do..like clean my room. (all the clothes I bought in copenhagen are on my floor...I bought ALOT!)..

also, I have lots of plans and dreams right now..we'll see what happens..can't tell you too soon!

byee

utterly mess

what a completely shitty day! utterly shitty & miserable!

i've been wearing my shows for 14 hours now, imagine that!!
also, was workin in copenhagen from 9-18, doing n.o.t.h.i.n all day, think I've turned every single piece of clothing in that shop. oh, no, only on the second floor, cause that's where i spent my 9 hours of work. alone.
but anyway
the worst thing is, that when i came back to malmö, i was gonna unlock my bike, but the lock was kind of stuck, and my key went all un-straight (what's that word!?)
and then i put it in the lock again to try to unlock it anyway, and then my key broke, and the other part is stuck in the lock...so what do i do now?!
I have no bike, cause it will be stuck and locked to a pole, outside of the trainstation FOREVER!
and maybe i could borrow or get some kind of tool, like a huge scissors, but then everybody would think I'm steeling the bike...HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

also, when this week is finished, I've worked 8 days out of 9..

now
sleeeeeeeep
zzzzzz

inspiration

I'm soooo hungry
and mathilda made stroganoff, and it smells so good. I might have to go down to the shop around the corner, and get some cream and make my own stroganoff
but i should just eat everything I have at home, since Im gonna be in copenhagen next week..

so maybe there won't be alot of blogging then...(like I'm blogging sooo much now)

don't have alot of inspiration right now..

copenhagen tips

sooo
it's been a while..

since last time, I've been drinking beer and wine with friends (yesterday) & working t monki (today).
oh i love monki! especially now that we have the sales going on, everything is so cheap!!
gonna work tomorrow aswell, learn how to open, and do the closing up again...shit, there's so much to learn, and I can't remember everything! but hopefully it'll be alright!

copenhagen is getting closer & closer, and I'm getting more and more scared :) and excited..

does anybody have any advice on nice shops, bars, cafés, restaurants, markets & especially secondhand-shops around copenhagen?!

MTWTFSS

I guess today's theme is WEEKDAY, so here's some eyecandy from their collection. I really like the last one, the cape...aaah I love having staff-discounts!

WEEKDAY

OH! MY! GOD! got a phonecall from a strange nr this morning.. answered with my sleepyvoice, and got an answer back from (aah i don't remember her name) the boss from weekday, copenhagen! she's in big need of workers next week, ALL of next week, monday - friday and got my nr from my monki-boss (monki, H&M & weekday are all part of the same company so we work quite much together and have the same system of cash-machines etc.)...

sooooo, basically I'm gonna live in copenhagen next week, working at weekday! in denmark!! I really don't understand danish as much as I wish..I absolutely don't understand the way they count, and I will look like a complete idiot, cause I won't even be able to speak with my co-workers, but that's alright!! it'll be fun!!

Beautiful Tango

I love natural beauties.



Hindi Zahra

the truman show

I just watched the truman show, and woah, if you haven't seen it yet. go do!
this is one of the sickest movies I've ever seen, and it made me realize more that it's actually happening out there today..we're being controlled in so many ways that we don't even know!

ma mére

days like these, I really appreciate myself!
days, when the fuse doesn't work, and the electiricy goes out.
i realized there are many people, who wouldn't even think there's something wrong when the fridge-light doesn't work, and the food is melting (!?), or people who wouldn't be able to even plug a TV in to the wall, or change and electricty-plug, or plug a stationary computer into the wall (if somebody even would like a stationary computer, today, i don't know)
or at least they would never even try..
I'm really not technical at all, but it's really not that hard, if you atleast try..and I always feel really proud after fixing these things..but usually it's just really easy..see where the cables were before, and plug them in the exact same way afterwards..


wow, this is boring to read. but what i want to say is also that I'm really proud and happy to have my mom..
I thought about it today, when I called her several times, to help me sort out some problems..sometimes I do this several times a week..and then I thought about it; who would I call if I didn't have my mom?..first I thought that for sure, I could just call anybody her age. or some of my friends moms, but I honestly haven't met any woman as handy and technical as my mother. she does everything herself, and I just wish that I'll be able to do the same in the future!

möllevångstorget

went to möllevångstorget today to buy some veg & fruit.
the prices are incredible, I get really shocked everytime!
today I came home with :

4 mandarines
a bunch of grapes
a cucumber
4 or 5 tomatoes
a zucchini
3 avocados

all this, for 2,80 euros!! in a supermarket, I could probably just get 2 cucumbers for that price!
I'm loving it!

last week we had a photo-project-thing in school, so I borrowed Johannas camera for a day and took some photos around möllan..we were gonna take photos of a place in malmö, from different perspectives, and I shot pictures of Möllan from a blind persons perspective...well..thats kind of impossible, but I wanted to give the impressions of how the textures/structures of everything at möllan felt..
these aren't all from that project, but atleast the last 2 are..
i hate the quality of the pictures on blogspot though, they look so shitty!

an honest letter

I know I've posted this pic before, but I'm drunk, and I really dont care. I like it.

I'm tired of falling in love with people who are occupied.
I'm tired of falling in love with people I don't know.
I'm tired of falling in love with an image.
I'm tired of falling in love.
because it gives me nothing, when I dont allow myself to go further than that.
falling inlove with an image that nobody can live up to..

except.

I'm happy. to be around creative people. people who wants to make movies. people who ARE making movies. and maybe, maybe, I have some projects going on!! and ideas, and thoughts & plans. and maybe I'm quite satisfied anyway.


tonight was a good night. wine, LOVELY food made by Ulf, (a thai-soup with every vegetable you've ever known..green mango with sugar, and roasted chestnuts as first course)

life's good.

STARVING

I'm hunrgy, I have the fridge full of carrots, eventhough i hate carrots! atleast raw ones..
tonight there's a dinner/party/something(?) with the other volunteers from DocLounge, the filmclub where I work...don't know if I'm going or not..probably..I'm free tomorrow, and my classmates were going out later on aswell so maybe, I need something else to think about anyway!

A MESS

aight
back home fom the kick-off, which was great!
started out in one of the shops, with looking at the new collections, learning a bit and blah blah blah...the best part was the beer afterwards! and the fooood...well I couldnt eat anything cause I was really full (from what?! I haven't eaten anything today!!)

anyway, the crew is great, all the monki-people are quite laid-back and nice, so i hope we'll have more of these things...

i could write loads, but it's getting late, and maybe for once I should go to sleep earlier than 2.30..also I'm just really paranoid not knowing who is reading this blog!!

but I'm confused! and happy! and sad!

goodnight!

kick-off

i'm soooo tired
been sleeping for hours now..

went to the library earlier today, thought I'd study, but I just sat there, reading for 1 minute...then closed the book and sat half-asleep for 10 minutes..
then the guy next to me started waving his hands like in a really big conversation...but he was quiet! studying! ..scary...so I left

I need to wake up a bit, get myself ready and head over to kick-off at Monki! wonder what we're gonna do...

home sweet home

ever wondered what my room looks like?
oh, i almost shouldnt show it here, cause at the moment I'm just renting a room in an appartment with 1 other girl (actually 2 , but one studies in Stockholm and isnt here very often)..anyway, most furniture are my friend's, cause i couldn't be bothered to bring everything down from Linköping when I moved..but I'm desperately (not really, but kind of) looking for my own appartment now, and would decorate it really differently from what it looks like here right now..

but i quite like it anyway

American Pancakes á la Natalie

source

the other day (saturday) i went for brunch at my friends annas place (see pictures a couple of posts down)...
Natalie came over and did the most amazing american pancakes I've ever eaten! usually I think they're too fluffy and heavy, but these were so great!, so I had to get the recipe, and here goes:

mix:
3,5 dl of flour
2 teaspoon spoons of baking powder
½ teaspoon of salt
2 tablespoons of sugar
2 tablespoons of vanilla-sugar
(if you want, some lemon cest)

then, melt 2 tablespoons of butter, and mix it with the flour-mix and 2½ dl of milk, and 1 egg..

fry, eat, enjoy!!

heel spurs

oh poor me,
this day is just long, gray, boring and most of all painful!!
i went to bed at 2.30 last night ...again..
had to go home earlier from school, couldn't bare the black n white movie from the 40's that we were watching..
also, my foot is really hurting, I think i got heel-spurs (an infection in the heel), from walking, standing & working with flat shoes all the time, EVENTHOUGH my mom always tells me I will hurt my back...duh..
so going to the hospital tomorrow to check it out..

this day isnt all that bad though, I got some really happy news during lunch..

I'm just gonna eat a nice dinner, maybe watch a movie I have to watch for school, and just relax..
tomorrow evenings there's a kick off at my new job, Monki. so really looking forward to that, meeting all the people working there and all..

NEW YORK!

wow, just had a revelation!
was looking at my university's website, for some inspiration for next years courses..
next autumn I have the opportunity to choose from different courses, and the 2 courses I want to take distance-courses! they will let me live wherever, and just study with books & lectures given on the internet! how good isn't that for a travel-freak like me!!

Recently (or just all of my life) I've been wanting to go to New York real bad! so maybe thats an option? but I will only have half of my students loan if i take those courses, and being a student is expensive..even more expensive in new york!

where else could I go? maybe i should finally live my dream in southamerica..argentina? brazil?

or on the other side of the world, bali? surfing during the morning, studying in the afternoon, and drinking cocktails on the beach during the evening?

or maybe I should go to Lithuania once more, because it's just so cultural and beautiful & amazing!!

what do you think? do you have any advice on where I should go?

evenings

sitting here, finally finished with everything I had to do with the examination.
with 2 fat chapters I should read for tomorrow's lesson.
but instead I'm just editing my photos , putting them up on Flickr.

gonna make some of that wonderful tea (twinnings apple, cinnamon, raisin!) and just enjoy my evening..

love,
me.

HYPE!

just a little banana-pancake I ate for breakfast some days ago. YUM!

last night was OK. you know sometimes you've been hyping something for ages, and then when you're finally there it's just not working out the way you imagined it to...
yesterday was like that, but i guess in the end i had a really pleasant (wow, did I just use that word?) night, with friends & beer..the 2 most important things! hah

Have been spending this day with Anna, here at home, fixing our hair. she did my hair-relaxing, and I highlighted her hair...how girly!

gonna spend this evening finishing the last things on my essay, drinking the best tea ever! (and i found it at extra-price today in the shop, only 1 euro! wanted to buy 3 packages....but didn't)

night-gown

Look what I found at one of the thrift-shops we visitiéd earlier today!
it's an old night-gown, or something like that.

I imagined myself floating around in it, in my huge appartment (what appartment?!) being all gracious and smoking cigarettes with a quellazaire (cigarette-holder)
I tried it on, and no, I don't look as fabulous as I thought (strange!)..but I bought it anyway, to hang on my wall, looking dreamy & beautiful...only, 4.50 euros!

friends, food & flea-markets

oh I've had such a nice weekend so far!
yesterday evening me, Anna & Tarmo went to Anna's friend Nathalie, who lives around the corner from where I live. She has bought an appartment just about where I found one I want to get (a couple of posts down).. it was so amazingly beautiful and I went crazy like always when I see people's homes..
well, over there was also Karin x2, Alex & Elsa (whom I had no idea was going to be there, but we met in Barcelona, at a party in my house!)..

Nathalie had cooked lentilsoup, baked amazing bread and an apple-pie...the mood was on top!
we started pretty early so by 1 o'clock when people were going out to dance, the bed was the right place for me (after having gone to sleep at 2.30 every night this week)...
unfortunately I don't have any pictures from yesterday , but if I see any, you'll get to see them too!

woke up today, without a hangover! good start..then took my bicycle to Anna's appartment where all of us from yesterday had a huge & incredibly delicious brunch, everybody brought something, and we feasted on american pancakes with raspberry-jam, indian tofu-curry, homeade hummus, toasts, cheese & crackers, grapes, scrambled eggs and whatnot!
yum yum yum!


after this we all took a little flea-market tour!
this is exactly how a saturday should be spent - food, friends & flea-markets. the 3 F's!

tonight - birthday-party at Paulina's, then going to Volym, where Dominique will be playing cd's, and after that...who knows? maybe hip-hop at Babel...

how are you guys spending your weekend? I hope it's as nice as mine!

POSER INSIDE

alright, plans are made..
I'm out pretty soon already to meet up with Tarmo & Anna (my homies from the class), we're heading over to anna's friend for some drinks, and later out I guess..

I'm feeling creative tonight.
(wow just re-read that and it sounds strange...but i will let it stay)

beerbottles

having another free afternoon, which is making me feel very uncomfortable. haven't had nothing to do for sooo long!! so..I'm just laying infront of the TV, sleeping, eating and computering...

but it's weekend!! and the beer is just waiting in the fridge for me...just need to sort out my plans for tonight..

i can't go to sleep

yes,
I'm still here, still awake.
silently editing photos
drinking a cup of fine tea - rhubarb/cream..

but it's time to sleep, I'm supposed to wak up in 4½ hours

if you like old school hiphop & wu-tang clan:

please! does anybody know how to embed a youtube-clip, but only the actual sound, and not the video..so that only the gray box is shown?

i wear my hair like this

this is how I wore my hair today. I used to wear it like this all the time a couple of years ago, so got a bit tired, but must admit I quite like it from the side, at least.

Finally an evening without schoolwork, it's been a while..well there are probably atleast 100 pages i could read in a caompendium or book, but tonight I won't..I've been going to bed at 2.30 in the morning, every night this week... but actually it was all my choice, and just fun things to do for school...like a picture-slide, so I've been editing photos.

Talking about photos, I've borrowed Johanna's camera for a couple of days. Man, it's so fun shooting with a good camera, can't wait to get my own soon! So, I guess the coming days blogposts will contain nicer photos than usual..

morning news

I'm just a little bit pissed off, as i overslept the one and only lesson i really wanted to go to today. well it wasn't an important lesson, or even compulsory, but it was a meeting with our counselour and she was gonna tell us how we can use our education, and what possibilities we have for work in the future..that would be quite good for me to hear, as I constantly keep changing, and wanting to try new things..though everything inside of the media-sector, so I guess that's OK.

also, I've found some really nice appartments for sale..like really, REALLY nice (pictures below)...but I can't get a loan from the bank to buy them, as my biggest income is form my students-loan, and that doesn't count..too bad

there are also some nice 2-room-appartments, ideal for 2 persons to live in..but I don't want to live with a friend anymore, and isnce there is no man in my life I'm just..all alone!

but whatever, I'm not as sad as it seems, after all, I'm having banana pancakes for lunch!!

pictures form idealhem

work with Elsa Billgren

Beautiful Elsa Billgren, is looking for an intern.
She's doing press & PR for Beyond Retro, the very best secondhand/vintage-shop in Stockholm!
This intern would get a foot into the buisness by helping her organizing parties, doing press-releases, facebook-events, and just meet and hang around with cool people!
wouldn't that be the best thing ever?! yes, that's why I though...until I realized I live in Malmö..which isn't too bad either.

I'm hoping there will be other chances, and maybe I could do something like this for my internship through my studies in a year or two..yes yes! hoping!

monki me

a couple of days ago i showed you the black clothes i would like to get from Monki this autumn. but I do wear colors sometimes too! (mostly earthy tones as you can see)

citar luckyday

oh my god, i don't believe this!!!
I think this is my lucky day

i just want to die and laugh at the same time
the first reason i really can't tell you, eventhough i'd loooove to! but i'm just paranoid not knowing who could be reading this blog...
but...i'm looking forward to the weekend!!! maybe, maybe!!



the second reason is cause my mom just sent me a picture on the mobile, of a citra, and the she wrote "i bought you this, a new challenge for you;) "
I DIE! I've been looking for an old citra for about 4 years!!! she didn't know that, but still she found one at a fleamarket today, and got it for me!!!!!!!!!!

I've been unconsiously collecting music-instruments ever since i was born, i just love to try a ne winstrument..I thin the citra would be my 17th or something like that..
now I can make more experimental music..first time i saw a citra was the first time I saw wildbirds & peacedrums..
the next instrument I wanna get is a steelpan (my birthday is the 30th of november!)


what did I do to deserve all this? I'm so lucky!!!

oh beautiful life!

I'm just in such an incredibly amaaaaaaaazing mood right now!!
let it be like this forever!

I just came home from DocLounge, and tonight we watched 3 shortmovies under the team of "the woman of my life"....all of them were great, but the last one just made me cry like a baby, i i don't think i was the only one..

such a beautiful story about Torgny & ebba, an old couple, who dated when they were about 18-19 years old. broke up, lived their lifes married with other people, getting children & grandchildren...and then both becoming widdows....then! they meet eachother again, and by the age of 80-something, they fall incredibly inlove again and get married!!!!!!!!!!!!!
for your own sake:

WATCH IT!! (click)
(it's only 14 minutes...and in swedish..but in the beginning she tells their story in english! impressing for an 88year old!!)

oh right now I just feel so lucky..
I feel like I am exactly where i should be, studying something wich will lead me towards where I want to go (eventhough I'm not sure EXACTLY where i want to go..) and being busy all the time, almost having some work, school or project everyday of the week just makes me feel SO GOOD! I'm surrounded by creative inspiring people, and I just hope that one day I'll be able to inspire people like that too!!

my current projects spinning around in my head are:
starting a club (like ..a going-out-club, disco-club,music-club whatever you want to call it...with awesome dj's and great music!)

make a movie, documentary or fiction..or why not both!!

find a man with beard!

and finally, get my own appartment!!
