April sun

JT and Anna (in my scarf and sunglasses + JT’s mum’s jacket)

Me (we played cards!) and Anna’s jeans and JT’s converse.

I had a really awesome afternoon/evening at some friends. We played cards, took photos and saw the ash cloud (at least I like to think we saw it). I think JT has got the rest of the photos.

Sandro Del Prete

I love Sandro del Prete’s images.

New shoes

I went to one of the downtown thrift stores today with one goal on my mind: to buy a new pair of braces/suspenders. Unfourtunately, all they had were these really small and silly ones for five-year-olds. But I did find something, anyway. A cute pair of ballerinas with bows on them.

Expectations

I dyed my hair today (out of boredom). It’s dark red/brown now, and I love it.

Started painting on a tote bag yesterday aswell.

PS. This song is really good.

Nowhere boy

I saw Nowhere boy this tuesday. It didn’t really meet my expectations (which were quite high), but still it was really good.Although it kind of left me wondering how it really was, and how it really happened, I think the movie was a bit romanticized. 

I’ve also watched 7 episodes of Skins season 4, I’ve only got the last one left!I’m saving it for tomorrow though...I hate the fact that I already know that it will end sadly.

jkrhjkhes

"Jesus is alive" in russian. I have some awesome relatives, they’re incredibly creative and nice. They showed up with a cake yesterday.

Happy easter! 

E18

I wanted to post the pictures from Jalouse magazine (the march issue), but I didn’t find them on the internet nor got the scanner to work. But I found these on AnOther magazines page. She’s so cool.

My pokemon bring all the nerds to the yard, and they’re like "wanna trade cards?"

Facebook groups rule

 

Two random (old) sunglasses from my closet

I love sunglasses! They can make you look sixties cool or um, futuristic scary in an instant. And they’re usually very cheap.

Le message

Studied some french earlier this afternoon (as well as having a coffee (tea) with a friend, running, working and finishing extremely loud and incredibly close). Found this poem in my text book:

La porte que quelqu’un a ouverte
La porte que quelqu’un a refermée
La chaise où quelqu’un s’est assis
Le chat que quelqu’un a caressé
Le fruit que quelqu’un a mordu
La lettre que quelqu’un a lue
La chaise que quelqu’un a renversée
La porte que quelqu’un a ouverte
La route où quelqu’un court encore
Le bois que quelqu’un traverse
La rivière où quelqu’un se jette
L’hôpital où quelqu’un est mort.

 

=

The door that someone opened
The door that someone closed
The chair on which someone sat
The cat that someone petted
The fruit that someone bit into
The letter that someone read
The chair that someone tipped over
The door that someone opened
The road that someone ran down
The woods that someone crossed
The river in which someone jumped
The hospital where someone died.

(stole the translation from here)

It gave me heavy boots, to quote oskar schell. So now I’m playing animals by miike snow very loudly.

Wild world

The final scene of Skins season one (when they start singing) is pretty fantastic. I had forgotten about it until I watched it again a few weeks ago.

There wasn’t any version available to put here (e4 seems to have blocked that function)...So link.

Polkadot dress

Are there any readers? Well, whatever, I’ll just keep posting. Soooo, I spent a few hours yesterday+today sewing this dress (which in fact isn’t a dress , it’s a skirt and a top). Polka dots is my new thing, I got a scarf from J with polka dots for my birthday (the 12th of march, same as liza minelli and pete doherty), and i’ve got a bow/hair clip thing with polka dots on as well. I have a feeling that it will not end there...

Well, I’ve always loved Minnie Mouse.:)    

Nay.

They canceled the almost all the buses again today. The bus i usually go with was canceled, but i was really lucky and could catch another one (after waiting for a long, long time).Yay. I thought the snow was melting. It’s definetely back again.

I’ve been sewing again.

a skirt. the pattern is really great, maybe i’ll get a proper picture to show you.

paris

From niotillfem !

I want to go to paris again. Last time I was there I was 11 and didn’t speak a single word in french (well except maybe "bonjour"  and "merci beaucoup", the latter always made me crack up since it sounds like "merci pucko", thank you moron, with a little bit of imagination), and I wasn’t really interested in the same things as now.

I am going to the south of france this summer on a language trip, maybe paris will be my destination on some journey after that? I definitely want to go after seeing Niotillfem’s clip.

Play again and again and again

 

Almost 70 cm snow outside. It’s the most I’ve seen around here...It’s sick! Unfourtunately, it fucks everything up.Poor Anna had to walk home from town (ca 8 km that is) last saturday when they canceled the busses.   Well, at least people got use for their thigh high boots at last.

Listen:

and you’ve got the faith that i could bring paradise

The xx and La roux are comming to way out west! I’m thrilled.

Fettisdagen/Mardi gras/Shrove tuesday

My school had a prom(or more like a dance, it wasn’t very big) yesterday for all year nines. It was really fun and I danced a lot, which I can feel in my legs today.  

The best thing about the dance was probably the fact that we didn’t have any real lessons yesterday, only dance lessons from 9.00-10.30.

I left town with a few friends and went to Norrköping.It’s just 30 minutes away, and although a little bit smaller than where we live still a great place especially since we can take the commuter train for free with our school bus cards.I had a great time.

I bought the dress for the prom there (from H&M):

H&M are always reliable.

Hope you have a great shrove tuesday today, I’m going to eat my semla (my dictionary wants to call it a shrovetide bun, but i suggest you google it if you want to know what it is) real soon.
