Me

So Ida posted a blog a while ago, posting pictures of herself growing up, and how she’s changed, and now I’m stealing her idea by doing, well the same.

I’ve been through a lot, to put it like that.

 

and yeah, no idea why the last pics always come up twice

Confessions of a Shopaholic

Just got home from Cinewold after seeing Confessions of a Shopaholic which is a really funny and cute movie. Could totally relate to the shopping drag, maybe not in that big of a scale tho, but still. Humor + shopping + a handsome british guy = a movie worth seeing. 

“Struggling with her debilitating obsession with shopping and the sudden collapse of her income source, Rebecca Bloomwood unintentionally lands a job writing for a financial magazine after a drunken letter-mailing mix-up. Ironically writing about the very consumer caution of which she herself has not abided, Rebecca’s innovative comparisons and unconventional metaphors for economics grants her critical acclaim, public success, and the admiration of her supportive boss Luke. But as she draws closer to her ultimate goal of writing for renowned fashion magazine Alette, she questions her true ambitions and must determine if overcoming her “shopaholic” condition will bring her real happiness.” - Written by The Massie Twins

So if that sounds like a movie you could enjoy, go enjoy it. If not, go watch it anyway.

Over to me and my shopaholic issues. Me and Ida started fantasizing about getting a flat together, something more personal than 172 Dunstall Road. Don’t get me wrong, I like it here, but oh.. A flat.. With our furniture. Oh all the joy it would bring, but there’s an issue called money. I do not like facing the fact that not everything is made for us to get RIGHT now, because I want it NOW. Bleh. But dreams am I allowed to keep, and dreaming I did on Ikea online. (bad idea I know)

I guess I just have to keep dreaming. And start writing that book that will make me rich. Oh and win 124 millions on the lottery.

Sometimes you just feel like crying

Like now, sitting here by my computer, just feeling depressed for actually no reason at all really. None that should be allowed to be depressed over at least. I mean I got my friends and family who cares about me, a nice bed to sleep in at night, shopping too much but it’s fun and yeah, I’m in England baby, and I love it. But sometimes things get a bit too much, a bit overwhelming.

Like now, sitting here by my computer, with all sorts of thoughts running through my mind, simply because my mate just got herself a new boyfriend. That’s the third boyfriend she’s had since I moved here, and that’s three real bfs more than I have ever had. And I feel lonely and kinda depressed that my object of desire is taken, and way too cool for me anyway. But it’s ok, Ida assured me it was normal feeling like this when friends gets a love life. Like my darrrrling pig said “life would be so much easier if guys werent so god damn attractive..” AMEN TO THAT!

And when you first get emotional everything just hits you so much harder. Like being so far away from home, from my mummy and my daddy. My nice mama sent me a mail with the subject title to our little princess yesterday, and just thinking about it now, in the state I’m in, makes me tear up. Another blessing in my life, having a family that loves me as much as they do, I’m grateful for it, and right now I miss them so much. My mum who would sit cry with me when I thought I had failed my exam, my dad who gets so excited about me getting a job, that he wanna make the scooter ready right away. My sister who spends too much money on shopping, who now I understand as I do the same, and Errrrlend who gives the best impression of me. Even my annoying baby brother, he’s impressing me, smart as he is, especially in geography.

And yeah talking about crying, me and Ida went to see Marley and Me last night, such an adorable film. Both of us crying, tears rolling down our cheeks I swear. Had to go check our makeup afterwards. Go see it!

Accessories…

…is necessary!

Is it just me or do I in some way look like Agyness Deyn? I’m not saying I’m a supermodel or anything, I can just spot similarities.. Might just be my twisted mind tho! 

Shopping is fun ain’t it!

Money money money

Would be funny… if I had it..

What you think? Totally awful yeah?

Saturday

And what a day it was. 
Finally we were going to see You Me At Six again, and on our way there, sitting on the train like we often do, we both agreed that if we didn’t meet any of them, we’d be a bit down about it. But when we came outside the 02 Academy, we kinda started doubting the chances of meeting them, seeing as there were so GOD DAMN MANY PEOPLE THERE!! The queue went pretty much all around the building I swear. And the venue was big. Me and Ida just decided to sit on the other side and wait instead of queueing as we weren’t fussed about getting near the front anyway. It was cold. 

Finally inside and the first thing I do is to spot Matt. So I as discreetly as possible mentioned to Ida, as no one else had seemed to notice him just yet. We got our pictures taken with him, and gave him Norwegian Milk Chocolate.

Yeah, we’d be a nice-looking couple, I’m working on it.

Walking around waiting for the gig to start we met Kayla and SammIE, and they told us about the after party, a golden opportunity to meet the rest of the band. The concert itself was great, somehow we got pushed almost to the front on one of the sides, which I’m not complaining about. Got some great pictures. Then we moved to the other side where I got one kick-ass epic picture of Josh. Check it out on my website. After the concert we got all evacuated for some reason. After waiting outside for ages, freezing, Kayla sweet-talked to some guards and somehow we got gold wristbands and got to go in before the rest of the queue.  How awesome is that?! We saw Matt pretty much everywhere, and I also saw Max once, after that he disappeared. We ignored Dan like we so often do, poor guy I don’t know why, he’s pretty fit! But Kayla wanted to talk to Josh, and well, that was our chance to talk to him as well. So we did, mentioning that we were Norwegian and also went to the Wolves gig last fall, he seemed to remember us saying and I quote “Oh I remember, you went to the after party as well didn’t you?” And yes, we did. He couldn’t remember to say I love Norwegian fans anymore tho.

Then we saw Matt some more, and that merch guy, Henri was it?, who also claimed to remember us. Later real randomly some guy walked over to me and asked me if I liked America, I said yeh, and he asked me where I was from. I said Norway, just to get this reaction; “NO WAY! I’m from Denmark!!” And it turned out that his name was Jonas and he plays in one of the support acts Emarosa, which was pretty cool. So we got a picture taken with him as well. Matt turned up, again, and this time Jonas brought him over to us saying “they’re from Norway!” and Matt went like “NORWAY!” Haha. He said the chocolate was terrific.

So yeah, it sure was a great night, worth those £30 we paid for the taxi back to Wolves.
