2008

So what happaned in 2008?
Let's talk fun stuff first.

Music: I saw Robert Plant (and Allison Krauss) on May 16th, The Used on June 26th (amazing) and Clutch on June 28th.

Film: I went to the cinema a lot this year, compared to previous years. I saw Sweeney Todd, Sex And The City, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Mamma Mia and Twilight (twice).

Comedy: Discovered both The Mighty Boosh and Russell Brand this year.



Life in General
- Got left alone at Stansted Airport outside of London, England.
- Best friend = no more.
- My father went to rehab (way to go!).
- I got my apartment and moved out.
- Met Pia again for th first time in over 18 months.
- Came to the conclusion that I am a pretty amazing person and that I like myself.

Friends

I don't want friends that I am constantly scared to upset.
Friends that are controlling and egotistical.
Friends that make me feel bad about myself whenever I don't do what they want me to do.
Friends that accuse me of lying about things like allergies.

I want friends that are mature.
Friends that are understanding.
Friends that are sweet and caring.
Friends that are respectful.
Friends that are trustworthy, and trusting.
Friends that are accepting.

I don't want a friend like you.

FUUUCK!!

The day was fine.
Then I watched two episodes of Celebrity Rehab and now I feel like I want to crawl up and die.

I love Steven Adler btw.

The Joker

Woke up with the worst stomache ache in months.
When I felt better about four hours later I went and rented The Dark Knight that came out on DVD here today.
Afterwards I felt sick. It was dramatic, action-packed, entertaining, hilarious, sad and nauseating.
I loved it.

Still haven't talked to "my best friend".
Last met saw her on August 22nd.
I haven't done anything to her, and if I have without realizing it she hasn't told me.'
I guess our friendship wasn't ever good for either of us, for various reasons.
I miss her though.

Christmas is creeping closer and closer. I can't wait, but on the other hand I don't want it to come just yet because then it will be over quicker.


New feature (until I get bored of it):

Lyrics of the day:

Hip hip hooray for me
You talk to me
But would you kill me in my sleep
Lay still like the dead
From the razor to the rosary
We could lose ourselves

I will avenge my ghost with every breath I take
I'm coming back from the dead and I'll take you home with me
I'm taking back the life you stole

My Chemical Romance - "It's Not a Fashion Statement, It's a Fucking Death Wish"

Banner!

A new banner for Christmas, made by my lovely Sophia (THANK YOU!) who has today started following my bloggy wog *waves manically*
HELLO!

Gerard Way's blog posts on mychemicalromance.com are amazing. It's hard to imagine him and his wife on the couch all pregnant (her, not him) and watching Paris Hilton's My New BFF, passionately discussing the conestants and the drama.

I may write more later.

Ta.

Mall outing

I went there to find boots and a nice skirt.
I came home with a shoulder bag (much needed really), a twistable eyeliner stick, a hairclip and three pairs of underwear.
So I'm happy anyway.
Except..
When I came home I noticed there's a fucking HOLE IN MY DR MARTENS!!!
And my other boots have split right up by the zip.
I cannot spend the winter in slippers.

Here's a Christmasy painting I've made:

Ta.

OMG shoes

FUUUUUUCK!!!!
I really need new shoes/boots!!
And they either don't fit, are ugly, too expensive; or fantasticly beautiful but horribly impractical.
I know myself, and I can not walk around comfortably in heels all winter.
Well, going to a 'mall' tomorrow.
Hopefully I'll find something there.

I need to go to the grocery store now.
I kind of don't want to though, I want to hide under the covers and sleep/cry until someone brings me a fantastic pair of boots.

I'm seeing Twilight again on friday, this time with Pernilla. Fun fun fun!

Peace

Wednesday

The snow has melted away - NOOOOOOO!!!
*very sad face*

Money before the weekend - MUTHAFUCKINYEEEEEEES!!!
*pumps fist in air*

I want to change my profile picture..

Listening to old System of a Down makes me nostalgic.

I saw Twilight and got drunk on Saturday.. Not at the same time though.

I will talk a bit about my weekend later, I'm too restless now.

I'm in love with Perez Hilton.

Friday

I'm so bored!
I've done the dishes, I've cleaned everything, I've taken out the garbage.
What's left to do?
Uhm.
NOTHING!
I will probably take a shower, make some popcorn and watch a movie. But what do I watch?
All the DVDs I have I've watched so many times and it's too cold outside (and I'm too lazy) to go rent one. It would involve a 30 minute walk in -1 degree weather (30 degrees fahrenheit).

Tomorrow I'm seeing Twilight! Then my brother and a friend of his are having a birthday party. Good times.

Pia went/is going to England today. I miss her allready. It's weird now that we've actually spent time "irl" together, hell she lived with me for almost a week! So this time I know in my gut that I will miss her even more than I did last time. Can't think about that now though, I'm keeping my spirits up for tonight even though I'm alone. Haha!

I bought a manicure set on sale today! Maybe I should try that out later.

I wonder which dress to wear for the cinema and party tomorrow. I have three to choose from. Hmm... *rubs beard*

Oh well.

Ta!

The Holiday

Most people who know me know that I'm a big fan of Christmas.
Tonight I'm in my brand new red pyjamas, ready to crawl into bed to watch The Holiday. I love this movie, I just bought it the other day.

Tomorrow I have art class and then I have an apointment to get my hair cut, I'm too exhited.
On Saturday I'm going to Gothenburg to see Twilight with my sister. Thrilled about that as well.

I will live in England one day.

Mormor

Spent about an hour and a half at my grandmother's.
She's had bypass surgery on her right leg (she has an artificial artery in there now, it's REALLY swollen).
So I bought some sugarfree cookies for us (she's got type 2 diabetes) and went over there to surprise her.
Talked about her childhood and youth alot, and talked about my grandfather whom we both miss alot. Aparantly he was a firefighter when they were first married - I never knew that!
Oh, and I was going to boil some water for my tea, but I turned the wrong hotplate/burner on and accidentally melted her coffee-funnel-thing. Embarrasing, and it smelled awful. She just laughed at me, I haven't seen her laugh that hard in a long time, so it was all good.
When I was leaving she shoved 400 kronor/crowns at me (about £35) to buy new boots! She wouldn't take no for an answer, but I'm happy because it was really helpful. I'm gonna go out and look for nice boots now!

And Jordie is "following" my blog now, HI JORDIE!

Fuck off

So no party tonight then.
I've been stressing all week.
Something I've really looked forward to all week was partying with my best friend whom I haven't seen in months (not my choise).
And now her boyfriend told me they're going to Gothenburg tonight.
I'm sitting here alone, all dolled up, thinking that if she just told me that a couple of days ago I could find some means of transportation, or some money for the train. But it's too late now.
I talked to her earlier today and she didn't mention it. She knows full well that I don't have a lot of money!
She didn't even talk to me now, I just texted with her boyfriend.
So now I'm very very upset. Crying-and-cursing-the-world-and-punching-the-furniture-upset.
Am I overreacting?

Party

It's no fun to "pre-party" on your own.

I'm listening to the Spice Girls and trying to decide if I should wear a dress or trousers and a top tonight.

That's all I have to say for now.

Ta!

Banner!!

Beauticity at http://www.americangraffiti.co.nr/ made me the fantastic banner you can see above!
I'm beoyond happy with it.

Never Mind the Buzzcocks is on tonight, so it should be on YouTube by tomorrow.

I'm going to a party tomorrow night, I hope I can handle a long night. I'm beat! This week has been so stressful. And then there's another party on Saturday. Holy cow.

Anyway, here's a treat for all.

Baking

I'm baking oatmeal and raisin cookies at the moment, I'm thinking of trying to make cupcakes later. Never done it before.

Anyway, I'm going to experiment with this blogging a bit, trying to add a video.



Did it work?

Starting out

Welly welly welly.
First bloggy wog.
I'm not that interesting, but I will try to update as often as I can with useless information about my life.

I've started knitting!

I'm making myself a red hat/beanie. It will be looong. Like a Father Christmas-hat, but without the white fluffy stuff around the hem and on the tip.
