Hi everyone! So it's Christmas Day. In Sweden we celebrate Christmas on the 24th so I've already done the whole Christmas dinner and opening presents thing. It was nice. It was nice and calm day. It was just my mom and I and the dogs. But it was good. I messed around with Sam. I got him and Merlin some toys for Christmas, but it was mostly Sam who played with them. We had a lot of fun and he tried to eat me. He's so cute! Unfortunately I don't have any pictures or videos of Sam or Merlin. I posted some on snapchat but I didn't save any of them. I should have. It is weird though because I love Christmas. It is my favorite holiday! But this years I haven't had that much Christmas feeling. I have barely listened to any Christmas songs. I still haven't heard Ariana's new Christmas EP. Maybe I subconsciously got too much of Christmas music at work. Maybe I subconsciously got enough of Christmas at work since the Christmas campaign started in mid November. I...

Hi! Happy day before Christmas Eve! What is everyone doing tonight? My mom is at my place for Christmas so right now we are playing bingolotto. No luck so far. But we both have been very close. We are going to play all night so hopefully we'll win something. That would be really cool! I used to play bingolotto a lot more when I was younger. My mom usually plays bingolotto the night before Christmas but I never have time. I am always in the kitchen stressing out. But this year it hasn't been that stressful getting everything done for Christmas. Also I haven't baked as many things as I usually do. The other day I had a little reunion with my friend Patricia. She goes to film school in London but she is home for the holidays now. We had dinner, exchanged Christmas gifts and went to the movies (we saw The Night Before) . OMG, that one is a eager little gift opener! I wanted to wait to open mine until tomorrow but she was like NOOO, LETS OPEN THEM NOW! So we did. I got Pure Se...

Hi my folks! Gosh I have just been laying on the couch sleeping all day. Nah, that is not entirely true. I have done laundry, watched a few episodes of Scandal and been productive towards my future. Yeah. Kinda realising that I have some more clothes that needs to be washed. Plus I just realised that the Christmas campaign is almost over! What! No! I mean the Christmas campaign at work. Those red Christmas cups. But the worst thing we'll loose are our red aprons! The red Christmas aprons! Well well. Hopefully we'll get those blue winter cups and just not go back to our boring green/ beige cups. Hmmm. Christmas is on Thursday. I am glad that I finally figured out what to wear. I bought a dress from Zalando. Since I really don't know what I am doing for New Years I figured that I could wear the same dress then. I mean I won't hang out with the same people. Plus I really don't know what my friends and I are going to do, so it probably won't be that fancy and the ...

Hi hi my dear readers! Have you had a good weekend? I have. I mean it's been okay. I haven't done much except for going to Starbucks three days in a row. LOL. Fanny and I have become regulars there now. Hahaha. But it is my fave place for cheap coffee (you gotta know how to order right!), free wifi and hot guys. So what is everyone doing for New Years? I am not doing anything. Just going to be with my family. I feel like it's the same fucking thing every year. I say to myself that I want to do something fun, be with friends or whatever. Then idk what happened but I end up staying at home with my family. I feel like  am getting to old for this shit and it's not fun anymore. But okay it's not like we are doing just nothing on New Years. We are going to celebrate Christmas since we all couldn't be together on actual Christmas Eve. So I mean yeah, at least I'll be getting something out of it. Hahaha (no I am not that superficial). It'll be fun and now I ha...

Oh, I feel like it's time for a new on this blog. Sorray for updating so poorly the last couple of weeks! I just have been very busy with getting Christmas ready and work and all of the stuff ya know but i am here now. All to your service! Hahahaha. Nah, but at least I am here. What's weighing down your heavy hearts? Have you had a nice Christmas? I hope that you have! Mine has been alright. It was just me, my mom and the dogs. I woke up with the weirdest voice yesterday - I couldn't barely speak because I had so much phlegm in my throat (I think that I might be getting a cold or something). It (my voice) was just on and off all day. Otherwise the day was good. We were home all day. Ate some good food, watched movies, The VS Fashion Show, opened presents and all of the Christmas stuff. Hehehehe. I think that I might try my luck at the sale this weekend. Or at least see what they have. There is a few things that I have had my eyes on for a couple of weeks now. So I hope ...

Hi guys! OMG I am so sorry for not posting anything this weekend but I have been a little busy plus kind of tired. Plus now I am kind of stressed because I realized yesterday that I am working until the day before Christmas. The day before! That is cray cray. I mean it's not crazy, it's absolutely normal. But it is just that I thought that Christmas was on Thursday and not Wednesday. So I thought that I had a day in-between to get things ready and to shop the last presents. Gasssh! How will I ever get anything done on time!? I haven't even finished decorating yet (WTF is wrong with me! I EFFING LOVE CHRISTMAS!) and I have two presents left to buy. You could say that I am a teeny tiny bit stressed. But I'll manage (I'll have too). I have discovered this new show on viaplay called Marry Me . It's some new American sitcom starring Casey Wilson and Ken Marino. The show is really fun. The story is about this couple (Wilson and Marino) who have been dating for six y...

Hi hi! How are you all doing? Sorry for not updating the last two days. I just didn't have anything "good" to write and last night I was busy because I went to a Christmas buffet with my mom. We went to O'Leary's in Kista. I guess that it was kind of fun. I mean yes it was fun but like when you think of O'Leary's you usually don't think of them having a Christmas buffet. But the food was really good. Almost too good I have to say because I at so much food that I felt that I was going to burst. OMG but it was so worth it! Hahahaha! Yum, yum! Guys seriously! It's freaking Christmas next week! Whaaat?! That is freakin cray cray! It's cray cray because I have no Christmas spirit at all. Nope, none nothing nada. Urgh! OI love Christmas though! It really is my fave time of the year. Christmas and my birthday. But I wasn't even feeling it for my birthday this year. Well well, I am sure that I'll have a great time. your write, Erika

Hi guys! How are you? I am sorry that I have been absent for the past couple of days but I just haven't had the energy to blog or do anything. I just haven't been feeling my best but I am all better now! Yeah! I wrapped some Christmas gifts today. I feel like that is half the fun with the Christmas gift giving. LOL. Just making them all pretty and cute. This year though, I am going kind of retro or whatever you would like to call with the gift wrapping. Old school? Idk, you decided. (Old school modern?) your writer, Erika

Shooooo! Hahahaha lol. What is everyone up to at this hour? Me, I am just sitting here watching TV. Oooo I just bought my first Christmas gifts. Yeah! One of the gifts is the present of the year. Like I want this one for myself. So if this person doesn't think this is a cool thing I'm like sorry but we're no longer friends! Hahahaha. Maybe not that harsh but I am going to take it back for myself. LOL. I went to a museum with Fanny today. It was quite, idk, it was a bunch of painting. Some of them were really beautiful. But like there was this one section with that had a lot of paintings with a lot of faces and I find that a little scary. Like I can't have a painting at home with a face just staring at me. It's freaking creepy! No please! There was this painting of some waves and it was really good. It was like you could actually see the waves crashing and turning or whatever. There was a lot of life in that still picture. It was really cool! I got called at the ...

Okay so the Christmas Advent calendar this… like the only word that I have for it is WTAF!? I mean pirates and Christmas - how do they go together? What is the connection between the two? I am not saying that it is bad, I am just saying huh? I mean because I still watch it. I might have outgrown the chocolate calendar but the Christmas Advent calendar on TV, please that will always remain a tradition. I may not be as excited about it as I was when I was younger but I still like to watch it. your writer, Erika

So what does a little 21 year old girl like Erika want for Christmas? The world, she wants the world. LOL. I want so many things but there are a few things that would make me cry insanely like the little fangirl that I am. And below I am going to list my top 5 gets that I want for Christmas. (In no particular order!) A "PROFESSIONAL FANGIRL" jumper   (picture source/ credit to: picture 1 -  https://www.etsy.com/se-en/listing/204196623/professional-fangirl-jumper-unisex-black?ref=market , picture 2 -  http://www.fresh-tops.com/collections/crewneck-sweaters/products/professional-fangirl-crewneck ) A gift card at ticnet.se so that I can buy One Direction concert tickets Ariana Grande's first two albums, Yours Truly  and My Everything  (deluxe versions pleeeease!) A subscription to COSMOPOLITAN or COSMOPOLITAN UK A good book your writer, Erika

Hola muchachos! I feel like I am growing up or some shit. Idk. But I guess it was time and that everything has to come to an end, but who knows - maybe next year? Okay so after 21 years I decided that I don't want a chocolate Advent calendar. I just don't feel like eating candy every single day, even if it is just a small piece of chocolate. Plus I wanted a One Direction Advent calendar but I can't find one so if will just have to be. I feel like, I mean like I am amazingly proud of myself because like I have done things lately that I like a month ago never ever would have had the guts to to. I am proud of myself. But I am goring as a person and that is pretty fucking cool. LOL. Y'all have no idea what I am talking and you'll never know either. your writer, Erika

Hi guys! As you may have noticed I have changed the appearance of my blog quite a bit. I have wanted to change it for a while now and I have wanted to go back to a classical view. And now I have! What do you guys think of this new look? I love it. I got this rush inspiration when I read a blog by a girl from Swedish Beliebers. Check out her blog here (btw it's all in Swedish but she has really cool pictures, and the look is awesome!). Anyway, so now I have a new look here on Erika's World! Yeah! Here's a before and after incase you have forgotten what it looked like before I changed it or just in case you're new here. Before After Plus now that I am thinking about it. This look is kind of current. Very clean, very white and very winter. Aka the white. LOL. Idk. Are any of you excited about winter/ the holidays? I am more excited about the holidays than winter. I mean, I am not excited about the snow. Oh no, now snow here! I mean, yes - now on Christmas E...

Hi evryone! How are you? Everyone seems to be celebration Valentines Day in full gear. Me? I had to work today and then I stuffed myself with apple pie. LOL, but it's cute though. I mean I know it's such a commercial holiday, but still. Christmas is also very commercial, it's still such a nice holiday that means a lot to people. I mean commercial or not, like who the fuck cares?! Celebrate the crap out of it. Hahaha. OMG, hmmm this so not going anywhere and I am tired and want to go to sleep so I command you all to listen to Austin Mahone new single U . Plus don't forget to buy it iTunes. Toodles! iTunes link:  http://smarturl.it/AustinMahoneU your writer, Erika

Hi guys! I will try to be quick. Hahahaha. Today I start working again after a long holiday break. I will work over the weekend, so I'll work today, tomorrow, on Sunday, on Monday and on Tuesday. It will be fun. It's a TV-show, a Danish TV- show. More than that I can't really tell you. Hihihihi. It's a fun show, I did last summer too. So I am pretty much familiar with the whole thing, I mean I know what to expect. Oh, yesterday PS called me (the ones that I worked for when I hard out flyers for Tolv just before Christmas) and asked me if I wanted to do the same thing again and that it was still Mondays to Wednesdays but I had to turn them down since I have to work on Monday and Tuesday. The flyer thing was an easy job. All you had to do was being nice to people and had out flyer to promote Tolv but you could get pretty bored at times. Plus since we were outside it got pretty cold, plus I had to get up at 5 AM and that is not so much fun. I mean I would have taken it was...

Hi guys and sorry for being M.I.A. for the last two days. Well, not totally M.I.A. because I have been on twitter, instagram and tumblr but I just haven't been updating from here. Sorry if you missed my badly but like Monday was the day before Christmas Eve and so I had to get a lot of things done. I got up early (7 AM if you call that early) so that I could go grocery shopping with my mom to buy all of the Christmas dinner food. My mom made me get up early so it wasn't entirely my choice. Then I had to bake all day and by the end of the day I was too tired to even think about this blog, plus I didn't feel like I had anything interesting to write about. I didn't have a flow/ a thought that I could spin a blog post from. It was just empty, not empty but just not something I felt like. Whatever. So yeah yesterday was Christmas Eve so then I was busy playing Christmas. I just didn't feel like I wanted to blog yesterday. I wanted to take it easy (hahahaha). Yesterday ...

Hola mi amigos! What's up? Hahaha. I am fine. It's Christmas in two days. Yeah! are you all ready for Christmas? Are you done with your Christmas shopping? Sadly I am not. I have one gift left. Plus my mom is making me get up early tomorrow to do all of the Christmas food shopping. Why early? Seriously I don't mmd standing in line for a while. I am a fangirl, so I am used to waiting (#sadly). Hahahaha. Plus  have been on the set of a few TV shows and movies by now and you will never understand the true definition of waiting until you have been on the set of a movie/ TV. You don't know how true that is. Once I was on a set of this TV series and my call time was 4 PM. It was really important that all of the extra was there no later than 4 PM because otherwise we might not get to be an extra. So I stressed to get there. Like right before I left the house the sipper on my shoe broke so I had to change shoes. I stressed so freaking much so that I wouldn't be miss the tra...

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...

Merry Christmas to Erika! Yes indeed! Conor Paul Maynard followed me on twitter earlier tonight! I mean like what just happened?! Like, this to like unreal or something. Like whaaat! I still can't believe it, whaaaat! I never get followed during follow sprees. I never thought that he would follow me but he did, like what?! Conor I owe you my life now! Honestly I mean it. Thank you! This will beat any Christmas present, unless it's his book. He seriously made my life. Plus how freaking unbelievable isn't it that he followed me today because it has been three months since I met him! Three months today and he freaking followed me! Conor freaking Maynard. Mah God! Thank you so much! I am a really good procrastinator at times and when it comes to certain things, for example cleaning my computer desktop. Like it's way too messy, too many pictures. I need to put them in a file or just throw them away. I can't have it like this. Hmm, I am trying to clean it as I...

Okay so I will try to make this quick because I have to go to bed in like less than 30 minutes. I don't have to but I would like to be in bed by 11 PM because I have to get up at 7 AM because I going to be an extra in a new tv-series that is premiering this spring/ late winter. I really have no idea when it premieres but I think that it is in the early spring or something like that. It's going to be fun. I got the call earlier today if I wanted to be an extra and first I hasetated because Believe  premieres tomorrow and it would totally break my heart if I had to miss that but then the woman on the phone said that it was going to be between 10 AM and 2 PM and that I am okay with. Hmm, yeah. I mean I can be okay with is they are a little late but preferably no later than 4:45 PM because the movie starts a 5:45 PM. There is this Belieber fan meet up before the movie but any tv shoot trumps that plus it's Baluba that produces this show so I like to stay on their good side so t...
