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!

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

Finally!

Today I bought a cardreader, so now, finally, I can empty my camera and start posting some pictures here on the blog again. So to celebrate here's some pictures from my home. First my lovely teddybear that watches over me when I sleep. He keeps the bed bugs away.
My treasure chest beside my bed. It hold all my secrets.

An old window, remade into a mirror, given to me by a very nice friend of mine.

My new radio, isn't it cool? I love it!

And lastly my lifeline. My bathroom stash.


Today I've been a working girl so the evening will be spent in a horisontal position in the sofa. Much deserved!

Love,
Linn

Perfection!

Oh My God! I want this dress so bad! It's just perfect! It's from Modcloth. Give me give me give me!

time flies!

Hi!

I just realised I haven't updated since wednesday, it seriously feels like I don't have the same sence of time as the calendar does. Where do all the hours hide?? Now I'm pretty stressed about a paper that is due monday, mainly because I work all weekend and have plans for tomorrow night. I need more hours a day, so if you can fix that for me, please email me, okay?

I also recieved a nice little parcel this week, but I'll tell you all about that later. (that is when I can find my cardreader so that I can empty mu camera...)

So my lovelies, promise me you'll have the most fantastic weekend ever, okay?

Bisous

Linn

ps. I am starting a project with my best friend around week six that will hopefully involve many of you guys, so stay tuned!

Braid wednesday!

Spring.

Hi peeps!

Today I'm at the uni as yesterday, but today is a seriously much better day that yesterday! LAst night I spent the entire evening going through my favourite blogs. I have lots and lots of favourite blogs, but I rarely have the time to look at all of them . I got so inspired! It really gave me a the kick I needed. So today I woke up with an abundance of energy, took a long hot shower, fixed my hair and makeup, threw on my favourite summerdress with another, thight dress underneath, perfected the look with a warm cardigan and my biggest and coziest scarf and my red boots. Today I feel reday to take over the world!

So my friends, today we take over the world and fill it with love and fluffy white and pink stuff, okay?

Bisous,

Linn

Zombie.

Hi,

just wanted to give you a small update on what I'm up to. I'm at school trying to get started on my paper... One of the books that this paper is supposed to be based on is the one in the picture. It's called "den översvämmade hjärnan", in english The Overflowing Brain. I think I'm the living example of what this book is all about today. I'm so tired I feel retarded (not that there is anything wrong with people with mental disabilities, but it's just not my usual state. Not in my opinion anyways...)

How does one get started on a serious paper when one only thinks of things like 'bed', sleep', 'hot shower' etc etc? wowee, this'll be an interesting day!

Have a nice one now, okay?

Love

Linn

The ideal body.

It's not difficult to get the "ideal" figure. Not at all! At least not if you have a computer and is somewhat good at retouching the photos. I came across these photos of Ayda Field, Robbie Williams girlfriend. They are rather similar, aren't they? Yet not at all. I get so frustrated by this. The thought of girls and young women looking at the retouched photos and thining they must starve themselves to look like that really makes me upset and angry! It's not like she's not gorgeous in the more natural looking photo, right? Yet we have a society where the ideal woman is so skinny that it often come at a serious physical and mental cost. Whats wrong with natural and healthy bodies?! KappAhl (a Swedish clothing chain) recently had to remove and replance their manequins because calculations showed that if women would look like them they would even have a menstruation! I'm actually so upset right now I can't even put it into words. We should be proud of our bodies, not ashamed!

Lot's nd lot's of naturaly looking Love,

Linn

Goin' home.

Hi peeps!

I'm going home to my parents over the weekend, which is good news because my camera is there so hopefully there'll be an increase of photos here on the blog. I'm going home to work on a few different projects/places and I'll hopefully squeeze in some studying aswell since I have a paper that is due next friday and I haven't really read the litterature yet... well it's only about 550 pages, so I'll do that in a giffy... right...

Anyhow, regardess, I hope y'all have a lovely weekend with lots of fun, good friends and nice foods and so on and so forth. Remember, breathe!

Love,

Linn

A happy camper!

Oh my gosh, my life is sweet dudes! Especially today! I almost had a panic attack yesterday because I ran out of breakfast. Now, I know you´re thinking, well just go and get some more from the grocery store, well it's not that kind of breakfast. Actually I started to use Herbalife a while back.

Itroduction to Herbalife, for those of you who haven't heard of it before:

Herbalife is a company that produces and retails nutritional products. The product I have for breakfast is called Formula 1. It's a pouder that you mix with milk (in my case low lactose milk, since I´m lactose intolerant) and it contains all the minerals, vitamins and micronutritions you need. I also mix in som extra protein powder since I don't eat enough meat to ensure I consume the recomended daily intake. I must say, I really didn't believe I would notice any change - but wowee! I have som much more energy now and my blood sugar has stabilised (which means I am no longer grumpy or in any way in a bad mood). As a bonus I don't feel the slightest urge to eat any candy or sweets. I can definitely say I wouldn't want to go one day without these products ever again. And as a nice bonus I lost some weight and now it's just fun to go to the gym to work out, instead of an absoulte drag- as it used to feel!

Back on track, so yesterday I used up the last powder of Formula 1 I had, but luckily today my new order was delivered, so I am once again a happy camper! Oh, and Herbalife also have lots of other products, so if you are interested, just send me an e-mail, post a comment here or if you have my number give me a call or send me a text and I'll tell you more about it- you won't regret it! I don't!

Lots of Love

from the now ever so energetic Linn!

Peculiar.

You know what is peculiar? Life. One day you're feeling blue, nothing is going right. The next day a million doors open up and opportunities you've never even considered stare you in the face. This is what have happened to me these past few months. And I love my life now, how could I not when there are so many exciting things going on?

For one I am now studying at the University of Karlstad, I also work part time and as a bonus I started up a small(ish) side project which I am so thrilled about. It could get big, you see. I'll tell you all about the project some other time, when the first results of my labour comes. I did, however, sum up how many hours of work a week all these three combined are. A staggering 70 hours. This means the blog is somewhat suffering. Not fair, I know. And to add to the matter, my camera is at my parents house so I cant take any decent photos.

Anyhow, I got a fairly interesting e-mail during the weekend, so maybe there'll be a few interesting posts at the end of next week, or maybe the week thereafter, depending on a parcel that is to be sent to me.

However, now I really got to get my ass out of bed, work is waiting.

Have a lovely sunday folks, you've deserved it!
