Today is my Day Zero


I have a new project! I’m doing that 101 in 1001 days list thingy!
I tried to do this a few years ago, but then my list got lost when I switched computers and I never bothered again. Until now :)

It was really difficult to come up with tasks though… the first 50 was no problem, but then it got harder. But with a little help from the idea finder on the Day Zero site I managed to fill my list.
It’s here if you want to read it
^_^

Is anyone else doing this?

Halloween 2010

Happy belated Halloween/Samhain everyone! :D

Hope everyone had fun this weekend – I know I had!
For once I had a real costume party to go to, and it was awesome! Lots of nice people, good food, some games and everyone was dressed up. Among others we had Sailor Moon, a she-devil, a pirate, a raven, a soldier, no less than 2 clowns and the Joker from Batman.

I was thinking about going as a werewolf, but had some troubles finding stuff for the outfit. Eventually I just made it easy on myself and went as a glam rocker. In other words I looked pretty much like I always do, just slightly more trashy.
Oh well, I’ll make something more elaborate next year.

Window decorations at the coffee shop/cupcake bakery were the party was held.


Me and Camila!
Look how flat my hair is… And that after half a can of hairspray and insane amounts of back-combing. 
I guess my hair just isn’t meant to be fluffy :(


Markus the soldier and Johan the Joker :P


Spooky cupcakes. They were delicious!

My bags (and not what’s in them)

I’ve seen a lot of blogs do those “what’s in my bag” posts. I was going to do it too.. but then realised I keep using different bags everyday and also keep different things in each and every one of them.
So instead, I figured I could just show you my bags, plain and simple :P


Ruby Gloom – matching bag and wallet
This is my absolute favourite! I always use the wallet :love:
The bag is for when I only need wallet, keys and phone (not room for much else) which is most of the time.


Ruby Gloom – bigger bag
Yeah, I really like Ruby Gloom :) I think she’s so cute! I don’t know why, but I don’t use this one as much though. Maybe because I like it so much and is afraid to break it.


Studded pockets bag
This one can hold more stuff that you might think, I usually put lipgloss and gum and such small stuff in the outer pockets. I usually bring this bag to work since it look slightly more grown-up than the others.


Cheap army bag
Markus bought this one for me from an army outlet (it was so cheap I could just say he got if for free) and then I decorated it with random stuff I found in my drawers. I use this one when I need a little more stuff, like notebooks and cameras and such.


Canvas school bag
This used to be my school bag, but now I just use it as an alternative to the green army bag. As you can see I’ve decorated this too with various buttons and patches.


Big green bag
I needed a slightly bigger bag for light travelling (room for extra clothes and toiletries etc) and fell in love with this one. It came in lots of other colours, including the more sensible black, but I just couldn’t resist the slimy neon green :D

First snow 2010


See what I woke up to last morning! It’s snowing in north Sweden :D
It was really wet snow and it was really windy, almost a blizzard. I looked like a soaked cat when I got to work. But it’s turned into ice now and everything is covered in a thin layer of white ice, the streets are like skating-rinks. Even the dog is slipping!

Everyone else is complaining about it but I’m happy! Last year we had our first snow in the very beginning of October, so I’ve been waiting for this for weeks already :P I just wish it was real snow, not this icy stuff. But that will probably be another week or two.

Has anyone else had snow yet? Or am I the only one living on the north pole?

(And no, my camera isn’t fixed, but I found my old one in a drawer. It’s working but it’s not as nice…)
