Yesterday I raided the shelves of SF-bok and came out victorious! Do you know how rare it is to find a good fantasy read these days? Especially when I go through them faster than I go through candy! (<-- I hope that tells you something) Fantasy is my drug. It's at the definite risk of your life that you try to pull me out of my alternate world. I like it there.

This is what I look like on the inside.





The Painted Man




Different. When you cling to one genre like I do, after a while originality is as rare as a find as a needle in a haystack. Only the haystack's on fire. And you're covered in oil. *evil laughter*

But this is one such needle! Do read it. Demons and men covered in both gore and tattoos. What's more to wish for? 500+ pages in less than a day. THAT, my friends, is a GOOD read.

omomo!

Going on a small field trip with school today! To some gallery or other. The funny thing is, I really don't know anything about ANY gallery or exhibition going on in the world, let alone in Malmö. Which, really, I should! How the hell do people do it? Is there some epic thread I can subscribe to? Some ultimate mailing list? Because that would be real nice :D

Anyroad! My friend Fluff aka Reptilmästaren aka Matilda and I (fear my use of correct grammar!Harrrrr!!), we're starting this project. We like to call it "Swedish Girls" (title inspired by this video ) and basically it's the two of us drawing all our beautiful friends in all their glory (or close to it) as pinups! Honestly, we just wanted an excuse to paint lots of naked ladies >:D Here's my first addition :)




And yes, I realize (and if you didn't, now you do!) that her throat is either massive or just quite badly placed. I'll let you be the judge of that. It's fixable though! So have no fear brave peeps! I shall salvage and save the situation!


Also, this exquisite creation landed in my mail box some days ago.



Pink Flower Horn Plug (according to the retailer). So, what is this? This is going into my ear in a couple of weeks :) Looking forward to it.


Furthermore I'm messing with the design of my blog. Please be patient, time will awesome it up!


Now, to end this post in style I give to you wonderful Peaches <3

Hej svejs i malmö-skogen!

So, school's up-and-running! I had my first lesson two days ago, though I'd probably not call it a lesson since it was more like an introduction of sorts. So this Friday (tomorrow) will be the first real taste of this course. I cannot tell you enough how excited I am about all this! Listening to all the things that course will enable me to learn, I thought my ass would lift right up off the chair I was so happy!

I, of course, dived headfirst right into our first assignment: shoot a portrait of yourself in a public photo booth. Only this single picture has to represent us, our personalities and everything else that is, well, you. Exciting right?? :D The teacher told us of past students dragging entire beds and bicycles into the booth, so I'm thinking this has to be pretty innovative and filled to the brim with awesomeness to cut it.

This is my idea which, while not quite as ambitious as the whole I'll-turn-this-booth-into-my-new-sleeping-quarters-idea, I still think is rather representative of me as a person.




A bowl with a bunch of pigs on it and a pair of pencils? Now what could I possibly do with that? Well let me tell you that I plan to fill that bowl with rice. Those pencils will be my chopsticks *grins* ok, so maybe that's lame, but I quite like it! Japan has, is and will always be a big, biig part of my life and who I am. My time spent there made me into the person I am today. The pencils, of course, represent the artist in me.

Next up is this:



It struck me that of course I just had to incorporate myself as a photographer in there as well, and so here it is. First I thought of just holding my camera, but then the rice and the pencils entered the pic, and since I quite obviously do not possess an unlimited amount of limbs I put that idea out. Instead I came to think of my collection of polariods. They're pictures taken of people and moments important to me. Why not have them in the portrait? The first idea I had was to string them on a piece of string and kind of make a necklace of them. However, I like this idea better ech ech ech

I still have lighting, backdrops and a few more details to think up before I set about actualizing all this but I think I have most of it figured out :)

So, now my only problem is how do I sit and eat rice in a photo booth and not get arrested? O___o'''

The fun-fun-place before the Storm

Så. Imorgon börjar det. Allvaret.

At the beginning of every new semester, I always find myself in incredibly high spirits. Somehow, I manage to delude myself into believing that school is a place of fun-fun times and conveniently forget that it is in fact, hell on earth. E.v.er.y s.i.n.g.l.e t.i.me. Why I do this I do not know and I cannot possibly begin to unravel the rat's nest that is my brain (and I advice you not to try either)>8DDD

So, writing this as I am on the day before the start of the term, I am one excited wittle girlie!


On another note, yesterday marks a very historic day! That is, the day I yet again begun my fight against the fat on my body [insert surprised exclamation here].





Don't get me wrong, I quite like the way I look. I'm not thin, and most of the time I don't want to be. I say "most of the time", because occasionally the real world comes knock,knock, knocking on my door to tell me that skinny girls is the shit and wouldn't I like to look like that?



hurr durr?

So ... the last post I did here was in February. That's roughly 6 months ago. Well aren't I the devoted blogger? Reading my friends blog kick started my desire for some air-filled writing!

A lot has happened since that last post all those months ago. Though, considering all the time that's passed, one could say that life's been pretty uneventful and at times even dreadfully dull. I'm back in Svearike - Sweden, for one. I got my first job, my first paycheck (well and long gone by now) and got accepted to school. *happy face*

Now, this is what I actually wanted to write about! My new fabulous going-back-to-school bag! What can I say, it was love at first sight? (L)






Just a little something to celebrate that I'm bringing my life to a direction that I actually like. That's got to be worth something :)


... I need to do something about this layout :/

Clearly I'm a genius
If she only knew it
but somewhere in her radius
I really blew it
I know, I know what I said to her
and I know what I did
What I don't know is how I could ever be
so incredibly stupid

(you don't really need to know every last detail.
Its hardly worth telling
suffice to say I said that I would be there
i never came through)

Maybe I'm a genius and
she just don't see it
I fronted,
I should have admitted,
she saw right through it
I never thought that I could be
so underhanded.
somehow I've cornered the market on
the double standard

For this act of genius
and so many others
I know I should apologize
and see how it goes

what am I waiting for?
come on, come on, come on, come on





Jag överlever; det gör jag alltid.

Jaha, då var det jul om bara två dagar, snart en, och bara timmar ifrån Narita och mitt flyg tillbaka till Sverige :) En riktigt svensk jul, med snö och kärlek så man drunknar i det! Mys mys och åter mys. Men nu ska jag prata färdigt med folk, städa undan lite småsaker och gå och lägga mig. Jag ska upp om fem timmar~~!!

Julfest här på gästhuset btw. Det var ngt av det mysigaste :) tack alla fina fina människor <3
