Dead.

You´ve probably all understood by now that this blog is beyond saving. It´s dead. So lets give it a proper funeral. May it rest in peace. If we´re lucky and the mighty forces are on our side it might just reincarnate in the future. Who knows? Only the Gods.

rest in peace, than you for the time youv'e spent with me.

Perfect day with perfect nutrition.

Today I've been doing lots and lots of stuff. The best part was my lunchour workout! I just thought I'd give you an insight in how I have the energy to have a parttime job, run a samm business and study full time.

Well the secret to having lots of energy is good nutrition. Regretably today the soil where a large portion of out food is produced is drained, which results in less nutrients in our foods. That means we need to eat a larger quantity in order to get all the nutrients the body needs. However in doing so, you´ll have an abundance of calories. As you can see, the equation is very unbalanced. So how do I solve this dilemma?

Well, in the beginning of this year I got in touch with Herbalife and startet to use the products. I have used them every day since. I have so much energy, I lost those annoying extra few pounds, my skin has cleared up and so many more positive effects.

So here's a typical day for me, foodwise:

Breakfast: A nice Herbalife shake. Keeps me full all the way til noon, I get lots and lots of energy to take on the day's work and I my urge to snack is gone.


Before my workout: Same shake as for breakfast.


During my workout: Mixed with my water I have H3O Pro, just to keep the waterlevel in body at a good level when I workout. It helps me to get the most out of the hour.


After my workout: Same shake as breakfast. (comes in several different flavours, and you can ad fruits and berries, so I promise you, you wont get bored!)


Afternoon snack: A protein bar / crisp bread with avocado and herbal tea. which ever I feel like.



Dinner: A nice dish with fish/meat and lots of veggies. On the side, pasta, potatoes, rice, bulgur couscous... the options are endless.

So, thats how I go about getting all the nutrition I need!

Linn

Kiwi - healed.

It's actually rather difficult to take a photo of your own arm. Anyhow, here it is, my kiwi tattoo. =) What d'you think?





With all my fruity love,

Roadtrip

We are going on a roadtrip today to the swedish west coast. The camera is charged and packed.

Kiwi

Here's a crappy photo of my kiwitattoo. I'll show you a better one when I've charged my camera batteries.

Now I need to get up and go to work. Peace out!

With Love,

Linn

Ps. I love my tattoo! :) ds.

The weekend

First pic, my arm as it looked on friday morning. Second picture my arm with the stencil. I'll take a picture on the finished tattoo once it's healed.

I didn't take any pictures at the Pink concert, it was too crowded and I'm too short to take good pictures in a crowd...

However here's a pic from a church we visited yesterday, vasakyrkan ( Vasa church). Really touristy bit very nice :)




Love,

Today is the big day!

Hi!

Woke up early today. 5:30 am actually. Couldn't go back to sleep. I am so extremely nervous 'cus today at 10 am I have an appointment to do my very first tattoo.

I woke up because I had a dream about tattoos. I dreamed that I was a few minutes late for my appointment, and as a punishment they tattooed my whole arm! Is that a weird dream or what!

I wasn't nervous 'til I spoke to my mum yesterday. This is how that conversation went (btw she is con-tattoos. Very much so!)

I: Mum, just so you know, I'm getting my first tattoo tomorrow.
M: Seriously?! Where??
I: On my arm, just below my elbow.
M: It seriously hurts there, you know that?
I: What do you know about that? You don't know that, you don't have tattoos.
M: Well, your aunt has one there, remember? She told me it hurts like S**IT there.
I: Thanks mum, I feel so much better now. Couldn't you just be glad I warned you?
M It's your dad you need to warn.
I: I know. I don't have the guts to do that.
M: Mhm. There you go.

Very soothing conversation. thank you mum for being so supportive. Hahaha.

Well, I'm going to Gothenburg this weekend, so you won't see the tat 'til sunday/monday. If I don't do a crappy Iphone update. Well the Update itself won't be more crappy than the normal post, however the photo will be crappy. Hopefully it'll be because of the camera on my iphone and not because of the quality of the tattoo.

Cross your fingers for me now, okay?

The Royal Wedding.

Today the Swedish crownprincess Victoria marries her Daniel. This is an historical event, in Swedish history a female head of state is very rare in itself and the fact that she now gets to marry a man of the people, a commoner if you may, is unheard of. Actually the last one to do so is also the oldest living Bernadotte and he actually lost his prince title when he married. Well, to be honest, in my heart I do like the Swedish royalties, they're fascinating and Victoria seems to be a genuinely honest and lovely person. However, if I disregard my fascination of the royalties, I am pro-republic. On the other hand, I do follow the wedding on tv today, I don't want to miss out on all the beautiful ladies with their stunning dresses and all the handsome gentlemen. Most stunning of them all, as should be, is Victoria. Just look at this picture from last night. Just look at that dress! Oh, I would give a lot to have that dress!


Royal wedding greetings,
Linn

Pinups and pirates.

I just love pinups and pirates. I would love to morph them into one picture and have it tattooed.

New family member

This is our new family memeber, his/her name is currently The Snake... These photos are taken just after he was fed with a big rat. Not a live one though, they're sold frozen. Snakes are really cool and weird animals.

Amazing!

I'm actually at the exhibition in this very second. Anna Ilebys drawings are amazing! I don't know how to describe them in any other way. Anna is sitting across the room from me, but I'm too much of a chicken to go up to her and say hello. I wish I would dare though, she seems so nice!

Later,
Linn

Long time, no see

Hi folks! It's been a while, haven't it? Well, I'm busy in school and with life in general so I decided I needed to make some priorities. However, today I took the day off. My first day off in about two weeks.

Actually I'm doing something fun today, I'm going on an art exhibition by the famous bloger Anna Ileby who rund the blog Anna Ritar. (I don't know how to link to her blog when I'm bloging from my phone...) however I didn't check what time it opens before I left. I was an hour early so I'm just waiting outside in my car. They must think I'm a weird /crazy person.

I'm also doing this on my own. My best friend already had plans, Mr E is working and everybody else I asked also had plans. It's actually a bit scary. I'm not good at doing stuff like this on my own... Well wish me luck!

Love,
Linn

Yesterdays makeup and do.

Yesterdays makeup consisted of my everyday makup this spring. A really nice foundation, some pink blush, and my new favourite eye shadows/glimmers. The shadows are two shades of champagne, one bright and one that is more beige. I'll tell you all about them some other time (No, they're not ID!!)

When I woke up yestersday I felt like braiding my hair. (the day before yesterday I saw some really inspirational pictures...) so thats what I did. It looks nice but is rather simple to do. You just do to two dutch braids from your fringe to your neck, when you reach the neck you just braid the rest of the hair like an ordinary braid. Take the ends (in other words, the "ordinary" braid, after the dutch braid) and pin it along sinde the oposite dutch braid. Piece of cake.






Allt he braided love in the world,
Linn

Let's welcome spring!

And in the spirit of this blog (or at least it's name) I did it with some makeup.



With lots of spring-y love,
Linn

Glad påsk!

This is a photo I took a few years back. This is my way of saying Happy Easter! (for those of you who's not fluent in Swedish, Glad Påsk means Happy Easter.) This is also my entry for a competition here, Caroline Dahléns blog with sponsoring from tvspelsweb.se .



So, wish me luck and have a lovely easter folks!

Love,
Linn

Shoe shoping!

I just ordered these lovelies from Nelly. I'm a shoe-oholic, I know! These will be perfect this spring with a cool tee and a pair of skinny pants! Oh, I shamelessly borrowed the picture from the blog My Shoebox.
If you sometimes feel my style is somewhat eclectic, you're right. I just can't seem to settle for one style, I like having the option of many styles so that I can go for the style I feel like every day. Today it might be a 50's style with an hourglass shaped dress, tomorrow it might be more modern, like in the case of these shoes. I sometimes admire all the blogers out there who seem to have found one style and then rocks it to perfection, well I just have to realise I'm not one of them.

So, leaving my little style-explanation behind, let's just hope Nelly is a quick shipper!

Now I'm going to make myself a cup of tea that will be enjoyed on my balcony, in the sun!

Love,
Linn

Play day!

Yay!

Today is The Day! My brother, his wife and two kids are coming to visit me. Actually I've planned this for quite some time, I was so cunning I bought tickets to a place here called Leklandet (roughly translated to playland) for the kids as christmas gifts. Haha now they had to come! =)

So, now I'm going to change into my workout outfit since adults can play to, we are "supervising the kids". Isn't that perfect? All those parents who have fun but are to stiff to say so, can just say "well, s/he couldn't go through the maze him/herself".

Well, I'm not a stiff, so I'll just admit it, I'm going to have superfun! The best thing is that they aer staying until tomorrow! <3 <3

Later folks!
/Linn

ps. have a lovely Valentine's Day tomorrow! And if you're single, you should celebrate the biggest love, the love for yourself! =)

@ school.

I have to find, read and analyse several scientific psychology articles today. Scientific articles in general are rather.... boring. So what to do? Throw on a nice dress, hide your "bad-hair-day"-hair and put on a lovely brouge your best friend gav you. So, here we go, bring the articles on!

25th Bash!

My best friend Emma has her 25th Bash tonight. I'm going there a bit early. This is my makeup for the evening. Better pictures will come, promise! The interesting part is that I'm going to a mall right now to buy a new dress, didn't really think of that before I did my makeup. Well, nobody has ever died from seeing a inup-ish girl a saturday, right??

Love!
Linn

Swamped.

Hi folks!

I know I'm always making excuses as to why I don't blog more frequently. Here's anotherone. I have a huge amount of schoolwork this entier spring, actually until mid-june. I also work quite a lot (so I don't have to take a loan to get through school...). In order to have the energy to do all this I also spend a lot of time at the gym.

I just wanted to tell you this so you don't wonder why I'm not as active as I should be (and want to be). I do however miss you guys and I do intend to write an entry every now and again. I also feel I should figure out what I want this blog to be about, from the beginning I wanted it to be a makeup blog, but as you've all noticed it's not at all about that anymore.

So, guys, have a lovely weekend!
/Peace out.

Dearest Mr B.

Emma called me the other night. She told me what happened. I don't know if you'll ever read this, but I just wanted to tell you that all my love, praires and thoughts are with you and your family. I lack the proper words to comfort you. I just wish I could be there for you, hold your hand and give you the biggest hug.

I hope everything will take a turn for the better soon.

with all my love,
Linn

James Bond

Today I'm in Norway. I've been working and tonight my mother and I are going to a party with work, it's a James Bond theme, so who knows what will happen.

Tomorrow I'll be going back home. It's always nice to visit mum and dad, but it's also always very nice to come home again.

'Til then, have a lovely weekend!

/Linn

25!

My very very very best friend Emma turns 25 today! Hipp hipp hoorayy!!! She has been my best friend for about 8 years now. I don't know what I would do without her. Even though we now live in different cities we still have daily contact. We ventilate, laugh, yell and gossip like two sisters. Actually we've decided that we are sisters. As a bonus she is Gorgeous!
So, Emma, Have the best bday ever! I can't wait til your great big 25's bash! I love you dollface!

And to you others, Emma doesn't have a blog, but please congratulate her by leaving a comment here. She reads them all!

Kisses,
Linn

ps. I stole the photo from her facebook, but that's okay, she secretly used my camera to take the photo, so in part it's mine anyways... =0)

My day in pictures.

Hi loved ones!

Since I bought a card reader yesterday I thought I'd celebrate it today by document my days in pictures. It began with anxiety.Today the next course in psychology started, C-level. This means I have a big job ahead of me... It continued with some more anxiety when I had to hand in a paper that was due today. I was really not satisfied with it. I thought it was okay when I wrote it, but when reading it today I quickly realised it's not the best idea to write a paper late at night on a caffein high... but I didn't have a time to rewrite the whole thing...

My classmate Patrik read through it aswell... this is his reaction... Well, he hadn't even finished his paper so I was laughing at him aswell.

The I got home. Did my laundry. Wanting to go outside. The sun was shining and it looked perfect! The factory-looking tall building is not considered to be ugly or disfiguring to the cityline. In fact it's loved by virtually everyone who lives here. The reason- they roast coffee and the most fantastic smell is hovering over the city.

Me, in the sun. Yes I might be a bit narcissistic, but hey- it's my blog.

I also found some lipglosses in my schoolbag. The girl likes her glosses pink..
Then I actually took a walk downtown. This is a canal that runs just below my flat.
Eventually I got home, took my workout outfit on and went to the gym. I think I'm adicted. I really love workingout these days. Every time I go I say to myself like a mantra "Let's F**ing tare this body apart"!!! It actually helps me push myself a little extra.

And now? Well, a shower is LONG overdue....

Kisses,
Linn
