Hello! So I was going through photo booth and found some old pictures from when I lived in California. Look at me. I look completely different, but also this was five years ago. So many memories. your writer, Erika

The Night Off

Gosh I just want to write something quick so imma do that. I just want to crawl into my bed an watch netflix. Sorry but I don't feel like giving you all a long ass story today. (LOL what are these work I am using. I know proper English but I just don't feel like using it today.) I took the night off tonight. I usually do a million things when I get home from work but I am too tired and my body hurts. I just feel like Naaaaah tonight. So you know nah. LOL. The other day I was looking at pictures from when I lived in California. WOW! That feels like something from a million years ago. It doesn't even feel real. But it is and I have picture to prove it. It would be nice to maybe move back there someday. But right now I got too much going on in my life. Maybe 2016 will be a big year. Maybe, but probably not much different from 2015. I am still me. your writer, Erika

Hi guys! I just want to blog a lil quick before I have to go to bed (which I am going to do soon) and while I sit here with a face mask. So you ain't got that long, or I don't got that long to write. But i have to multitask because I have a few other things that I'd like to get done before I hit the sack. Sorry for not being that active lately. I have just been kind of busy. You know I have a life, besides my computer. I love this blog and love writing meaningless nonsense here. Idl, but it is a way to clear my head from all of the clutter that is up there. So thank you guys for putting up with me. OMG, I just realised that Friday is the eight year anniversary of this blog! That is crazy! Whaaaat! I went and saw Katy Perry this weekend! That was like super cool! I am so happy that she choose yo come to Stockholm on the Prismatic World Tour. I was so bummed out when she didn't come to Stockholm that California Dreams Tour. I was like YEAH OMG KATY IS GOING TO TOUR an...

A Splash of Spring

Hi guys! How are you? I am good. I should be doing homework but instead I am sitting here watching True Detective and writing a lil some for you. Plus I have lit two scented candles so it's all cozy up in here. LOL. It's all good here. Especially when all the light that I have is from the candles and from my computer and the TV plus my phone every time I get a notification (which is a few times every minute). It's real cosy and real nice in this hizz hazz. You know what... I want spring like NOW! I want to wear cute outfits. I mean yeah I can still wear cute outfits now but like it's cold outside and I will freeze if I for example wear a dress without leggings. So no. I miss Cali. I miss the Cali weather. I could wear summer clothes all of the time when I lived there. But I started missing wearing jeans. But it would have ha been too freaking out to wear them. LOL. Never pleased I guess. But you can really tell that spring is coming and the summer is approaching (sl...

I Have Changed

Hi guys! How are you? I am good, but my back still hurts though. Other than that I am okay! Wanna know a cool thing? I am going to be an extra in an ICA commercial again! Yeah! I think that it will air on TV either week 13 or 14. I can't tell you what the commercial is about because confidentiality agreements. But I will tell you this that I met ICA Cindy aka Joanna Eriksson who I have worked with before she I was an extra on Partaj . She was super sweet! Just as sweet as I remember her! She recognised me, which was super cool. She came up to me and was like "OMG! It's you. Wow it's been a really long time!" and then she gave me a big hug. Then we watched up a little which was cool! I also met Loa Falkman who plays the new ICA Stig! He was also super nice. OMG! Best experience! One of the best anyway! LOL. I just remembered that I have a quiz on Thursday and that I haven't studied at all! Gosh! Who have I become?! When I went to college in Cali, the first t...

Goodnight

Waddup people! How are you all? I am good, thank you. WTF, it's past 11 PM and I am still up. LOL. Okay that is quite common when it comes to my life, but I am just like. I mean like around 11 PM last night I was like "I am done with this shit!" and I went to bed. Like, me? Bed? 11 PM? That's three things that don't occurs simultaneously that often. Well well, there is always a time to try new things. Talking about bed times… I remember like when I lived in SB or even just throwing it back to last summer when I went to bed at like 12 AM, at latest. 'Cause anything later than that was like devil time to dance (whatever that means). No, but I just thought that anything after 12 AM was freakishly late to be up and awake at, and like for some reason it gave me anxiety if I went to bed later than that. Well, well. Now I can stay up until like 1 AM. Anything between 12 AM and 1 AM is pretty normal for me. Well, I did stay up until like 4 in the morning for 1D Day ...

Nighty Night

You guys I am so freaking tired! I even fell a sleep while watching Harry Potter earlier (maybe I should have had drank some of that coffee that I made). Anyway I still wanted to stop by here and say hello before I go went to bed. So here I am tired as fucking hell so I am going to make this very quick. I don't really know what to write here so um yeah. Hehehehe. I think that I might upload a video or two on my youtube channel tomorrow. Idk, because I say that everyday. So we'll see. Hahaha. Now I am gonna go to bed so I'll leave you with this picture to enjoy. Have fun. Sleep tight. Party hard because, you now it's Halloween! your writer, Erika

Swedes Loves SB

Hi guys! How are you this lovely Sunday evening? Are you alright? I am okay I guess. I mean I am okay. I am fine. So this weekend I have met two people who have lived in Santa Barbara! What's with that city and Swedes?! Hahahaha. I mean I know. California sunshine. I mean - personally - I am sick and tired of this weather that we have in this country. I am seriously craving warmer weather and sunshine. Please, is that too much to ask for. But still, there is LA and a bunch of there cities in southern California. And warmer states for that matter! Why Santa Barbara? I mean it wasn't even my first choice, it's what I had to settle with. I ended up liking it, but that's not the answer to my question. your writer, Erika

Throwback Outfit

Image
Hi guys! How are you guys? I am good. LOL. I was looking through old pictures from when I lived in Santa Barbara because I want a new cover picture for twitter but I could find a picture that I was thinking of. Anyway I came across this picture of me wearing this see-through lace top. It was a really nice outfit, but I am kind of bummed out because I don't have that top anymore. Awwww (sad puppy face).  I need a new see-through lace top. Black, preferably. I mean I can't really picture a see-through lace top in like pink, blue, orange or like yellow actually being a good look. Um, no thank you. But if you see one in any of those colors that does look good you can send me a picture of. But preferably in black. This is the outfit that I am talking about (plus a little bonus selfie): your writer, Erika

Winging It

Hi guys! How are you? It's really starting to get cold here. Yuck. Okay it's not super cold but its too cold for me to take notice at the weather change and to complain about. NO. I want Cali weather. I want Cali period. Hmm, maybe in a few years. Idk, what I am talking about but still who knows. I want warmer weather lets just leave it at that. Hahaha. LOL, my feet are always super cold and like the Cali weather didn't really change that. I mean my feet still got cold at night so I wore these Ugg like slippers. LOL. I need to learn how to do a good wing with my eyeliner. But I have a pen, is it better to use liquid eyeliner when you're doing a wing. I saw a few picture of Keri Hilson on her instagram and she had a really good wing. I think that it can be kind of hard to make them match. I mean like exactly. Plus it never turn out the way imagined it. I really want to learn how to do a good wing. I feel like I am going to use up my whole pen when I practice (hahahaha)...

Silly Little Erika

Hola mi amigos. Yo, what up homies? Hahaha. How are you all this fine Friday evening? I am good. I haven't really done much except watching this interview that I have been wanting to watch for a while and yeah, another episode of House of Cards . LOL. Mmmm. The first season was better than the first one. Just my opinion. Well, I mean the first season and the first half of the second season. Maybe I am speaking too soon because I have not yet finished the second season but so far that is my opinion. So what is everyone doing this weekend? I am not super busy, but I have a few things on my schedule. What is with that? I mean I am glad to be doing stuff but lately I have been busy during the weekends. I mean, maybe it can turn around so that I am more busy during the week and free during the weekends. LOL. I have scheduled these thing myself. It's not like any one has forced me to do any thing. LOL. Silly little Erika. Nah. Tomorrow I am going to be an extra in a new Swedish TV-...

Always Learning

Hola mi amigos! That's kind of all the Spanish that I know. Hmmm, maybe I should reintroduce myself to the language. Oh, I'd also like to learn French. Aw, I should have had taken French instead of Spanish. Well, well. (Remember that time I tried to learn French? If you do then you have been here a long time.) Talking about languages. My british accent is progressing. LOL. I mean it sucks. I mean it is that good (I really need to chose better words describing myself and stop trash talking myself, it's a bad habit). I have found little tricks that makes it easier to speak in a British accent. Plus I can now say a second sentence with a British accent. When's your due date? LOL. But I do a with the word "due". But I am only learning and to master the accent will take time. It's not something that you learn in like a week. I mean I lived in California for four months and I still really can't speak in an American accent. Well, my "regular" acce...

Distractions

Hi guys! How are you! I am good. LOL, I should really start this now and stop getting distracted by Hunter Hayes, facebook, the TV among other things. Plus I am starting to feel a little sleepy. It might have something to do with the fact that I have not had any coffee today (Yeah, a shocker since I am such a coffee lover! LOL, hahahaha!). We don't have any coffee, but mom said that she would buy some tomorrow so it's all good. Eh, we have tea so I am not completely, idk but we have tea. Hahaha. OMG so my mom made home made french fries for dinner tonight. Really delicious and a way more luxurious than store bought frozen french fries. They were really good! Sometimes there is really nothing better than your mother cooking. Seriously when I was away in the US, sometimes all I wanted was to go home and just eat my mothers cooking. Partly because I was so physically and emotionally tired from school and the whole thing of moving across the world. your writer, Erika

Lack of a Better Imagination

Yo! I made my very own almond paste for the first time today! It was really easy. I also made nutella but I have made that before. I am going to make a Christmas candy called "Mozart kulor" tomorrow so I just wanted to try to make my own almond paste just to see how easy it was and to learn how to do it. The most annoying thing was to peel off the peel on the almonds. I mean to took a few minutes. It was just boring. Oh my God you guys! Like I am so freaking bored right now! I mean seriously I could go to bed to just because I am bored. My boredom has led me to looking through pictures from Santa Barbara and Los Angeles. I don't now but for some reason I had a thing where I always took selfies of myself in the mirrors in the WC at the movies. For some reason the WC was always, well often anyway, empty so I just snapped some pictures. Hahaha. I am looking at all of my selfies from SB and IDK they are awesome, I mean hmmm I don't know how to say this in english (it so...

Instawishing Fabolous

Image
Hi guys! How are you? I am sitting all curled up in a blanket with my Mac in my lap. It's freaking cold! Oh, so cold. Sometimes I think that this country is too cold for me. Hahaha, and when I lived in California I thought that I was going to die sometimes because of the heat. Hihihi. Nothing is ever good enough. Nah, I mean, I don't know what I mean actually. I just don't know. LOL. Weird. So I was looking through my instagram pictures earlier and I saw these three pictures, kind of wishes for this year or something like that. Just looking at them I am realizing that they have all kind come true. I mean that's the exact same Michael Kors watch that I got for my birthday, Starbucks opened on Arlanda this spring and is now opening it's second coffee shop in Stockholm next month and I feel like I have had a pretty good year so far (I feel like it's too soon to really sum up the year, a lot of things can still happen). I mean, weird. These last few years has been...

What's In My Purse Part II

Rainy Day

So I was thinking earlier about what I wrote yesterday and surely I can suck it up for one semester because so that I can go and see One Direction. Hmm or maybe I should just try New York. Mohahaha! I don't know, NYC seems like a lovely city. Seems, since I don't know. Hmmmm. I just did my nails. Well, I did them started this post, "spaced out" (aka got distracted by something else). Anyway, what I wanted to say is is that I do not like the result so tomorrow night I will redo them. I have to buy new nail polish remover tomorrow 'cause I don't like the one that I do have. Why can't they have CVS in Sweden or at least sell CVS's own brand here? Hmmm. I used their nail polish remover when I lived in SB and I liked it. Hahaha, the one that I have now is some cheap brand that I bought at Inn och Finn (like the 99 cent store, it's cheap but not just 99 cent cheap, lets just say that it cheaper, okay). Never buying that again, I can tell you that. Hmm,...

This Is Special

Hi peeps. It's time for my daily blog! YOLO, it's happening. I am going to tell you something funny or not so funny. You can be the judge of that. As I was on my way home from the movie last night it hit me that I haven't had my own bedroom since I was in California. How about that! Eight and a half months, I mean 'cause I left Cali on December 13th last year. My own room! Hahaha but I am feeling the Cali ways/ habits slightly crawling its way back in. I mean 'cause I used to do my laundry once a week (it was the homestay rules, I was only allowed to use the family's washer and dryer once every week, or twice however you like to call it, I was allowed to loads every week). Then, um sometimes the clean laundry just ended up in a pile for some reason until it was dirty and time for it to be washed again. It just happened! I just didn't want to deal with all that shit when I got home from a nine hour long school day. After have had getting up at 5:30 AM. Plus i...

Welcome to Erika's World

That's it! Now I am completely caught up with season eight of Keeping Up with The Kardashian's . Now all I have to do is wait for Sunday, well Monday (I have to wait for it to be up online) until I can watch a new episode. Who else here is a Kardashian/ Jenner fan? I mean when the show first started airing in Sweden I was all excited because I had heard so much about it and when I watch the first episode I was kind of disappointed you know. I mean I didn't hate it but I was kinda like "Oh? This is it?" Yeah you know but now I love it. I don't know about love exactly, but I to enjoy watching the show. Which I do do. On Wednesday there is a new episode from season seven (last season) airing on TV11 in Sweden. I prefer watching TV shows on the TV than on my computer. Yeah so, um, yeah this is actually the first season of KUWTK that I have watched online. I have seen a few episodes of the Kourtney and Kim Take Miami  that aired earlier this year. You know what I...

Big Bang

Seriously though I could go to school in Cali next semester (spring 2014 that will say) just so that I could go to Las Vegas for my 21st birthday. I mean, just because of that one reason. It's not that I am loosing something from being in California for four months! I am gaining alot. Like an education! But it's also like what I talked about yesterday, you know, all that about if I really want to to go to school. 'Cause otherwise it's just a waste of money. I need to be really sure that that is what I want to do, you know. Hahaha. It will never be a waste of experience or anything like that. Actually it is not a waste of money too. 'Cause I feel like I am paying for so much more than an education, you know. Since I am not from America I am paying for more than an education. You know right. It is the experience of being there. I don't know what to say other than that. Have you guys watched my vlog from yesterday? In case you haven't watched it watch it here...
