I miss Australia

Some days I just can't find a way to not think about or miss Australia. The country that I lived in for almost one year. The year of 2007. A weird year. A good year. A bad year. A very different year. A hot year. A wonderful year. A crazy year. But the only thing that I want to go back for would be to see my friends and 'family' - Lizzie, Erika, Viv, Shaun and his family, the girls at TAFE - Claire, Renee, T... you know who you are, the ones that really matters. I would like to live in that climate again, but not necesserily in australia. Will I ever go back? Go back to Sunny Coast.

One tv-series that I followed as a maniac was the amercan serie "Life" it has finally arrived in Sweden as well! I just loved it! And the commercial before the program started they used Delta Goodrems song 'In this life'. This youtube clip with the song that I found is from the Mourning Show on Channel 7 that I watched every morning. Listen to the wonderful accent! Im afraid that Im about to lose my aussie accent - I hope not!

Sorry

Sorry that I haven't been writing so much lately! It's just too much happening at the moment. Both good and bad stuff. You know, sometimes you just wish that everything would be a bit less complicated, that the answers just could be so clear that you'd never hesitate. Not always. But sometimes. Just to make life a bit smother and not so harsh.

The weather have been great this week! I've been wearing skirts, dresses and shorts! Sunnies have been a must have! Every single lunch I've been laying in the grass at Gärdet. I've been shooting a lot. Both at work and personally. Been shooting advertising with Dogge, Ken Ring, Sam-E (from Medina) and Kaliffa this week. They are all swedish hiphop artists. So keep your eyes open for the magazines: Rocky and Kingsize in entire Scandinavia.

Personally I've been shooting one of my colleague jumping around in the grass, my gorgeoues friend around Långholmen and just some portraits of friends at after work.

This weekend I'm gonna give my website a face-lift. Well it's my goal anyway. I'll let you know if I'll make or not=).

I've started training! At SATS. I'm gonna become a training freak again! Wooohoooo!

Speak soon,

Peace xo

Take it all or leave me alone

Since thursday evening I have been listening to one album. One album only. Rockferry. Rockferry by Duffy. The 23yo woman from Wales is creating amazing music! I have never been listening to a female artist that caught me right away and so harsh. I do believe that it has a bit to it that some of the lyrics is sorta like my life at the moment. I can feel the pain or the joy in the different songs. The determination. I love this album. Buy it. Listen to it at youtube. Buy tickets to her live performances. This woman is amazing. Don't miss out on her!

If you're in sweden you have probably not missed out on the single "Mercy"

New haircut

Tonight I finally got my hair fixed. At Kameleonten, by a girl called Caroline. I truely recommend her! I've been really happy about a haircut only two times as I can remember. Today is definitly one of them! Got some colour and a new very nice haircut.

I'm having a cold. The first sickness since I got back from Australia. I'm tired and my noose is like a human tap. Annoying.

On sunday I am going to do some BodyPump at SATS. I hope I'm gonna enjoy it so I can continue losing weight and gaining strength.

Favourite song at the moment is Curly Sue by the Swedish rock band Takida. I started to listen to Takida 6-7 years ago. They were a demo band for years and years! Had gigs all the time and worked so hard. Now, when I'm back in Sweden I realize that they are being played on most of Swedens biggest radio stations. That's awesome! All the luck to you guys!

Best night out this far 2008

Last friday I left work straight to the Central Station. I was on my way to Västerås (one of swedens biggest cities, also called Western Aros in my earlier posts) where some friends were getting ready for some party. Because of an excident I got stuck on the train and got to Västerås about 9 pm. I was starving! After some food my mood were much better. We became seven people on a 'before-party' and then we walked just a couple of hundred meters to the best and 'coolest' place - Blue Moon Bar. SInce it was friday and the third weekend after salary it wasnt as full as the last time I was there but still people dancing on all three (!) dancefloors. I had such a great time! We went to the bar, then dancing on all the dancefloors, the bar, dancing, the bar and then dancing til they closed the doors. It was great music, great friends, good vibe on the place (much more relaxed than overfull saturdays) - just awesome. Afterwards we continued at a friends place and crashed in the living room.

The day after we had brunch at Kalle på Spången and then we had some ten pin bowling happening at Strike. Went pretty well for me until the last round. Then I was too tired to get it going the way I wanted. I am having such a pain in my right arm and left bum, down the thigh... Start training more than just walking to work!

Thanks for a great weekend, everyone involved!

Good surprices

There are good suprices and less good ones. At the moment I am trying to sort some big gifts out. To people that just got their first kid and two 30 year old to be. Trying to find something inbetween too crazy and boring.

A good and cool surprice to do at a wedding:

Language problem

When you singalong to a song, how often do you really know the exact lyric? No matter what language, do you only sing if you know the lyrics?

I love Moi Lolita by Julian Dore, it's in french. I don't know so much french. I'm trying not to sing a long, cause I don't know the words or what it means. But a couple of weeks ago in the studio I sang a long. With an african model that knows french better than any other language. That was emberassing. But now I know what he sings=)

Here comes a pretty good example on when you should NOT sing a song if you're not sure about the lyrics:

733 shots i less than 4 hours

This morning I was shooting 733 fashion photos on a model that constantly were changing clothes in 4 hours. That's a little bit more than 3 photos per minute. I'm flash damaged.
