Saturdays In Stockholm

Image
Hello luvies! How are you today? I am good. I hung out with my good friend Le Ly today. We have know each other for about a year. I met her when I worked at UKÄ. We started working there at the same time. It was so much fun working with her because we got a long very well and helped out each other at work. We were allies because it felt like it was us two against everyone else since we were consultants. It was so much fun. We also have a lot of common interests such a having a healthy lifestyle. / Shirt - Ralph Lauren / Skirt - H&M / Shoes - Vagabond / Scarf - Michael Kors / We had a nice fika at Rörstrandsgatan. If you are ever in Stockholm Rörstrandsgatan is a must for a nice fika. Especially in the summer. They have a bunch of lovely café's and restaurant's. Then we walked from Vasastan to NK because Le Ly wanted to buy a Michael Kors bag that she has had her eyes on for a while but now that it was on sale with 40% off she just had to seize the opportunity. ...

Today

Image
I hung out with my friend Patricia today. We walked along Norr Mälarstrand. It was so nice and beautiful. We sat down at Mälarpaviljongen and sat down on the dock and had a nice fika. It was so really nice. But we were sitting right in the sun so it got really hot. Patricia said that that was the best cinnamon bun she has ever had We continued walking and walked to City Hall. It was full of Asian tourists. Stockholm in the summer especially the Old Town is full of Asian tourists and their selfie sticks. It's nice seeing a city full of tourists because they look at the city differently that I do. It gives you perspective. Hahaha, I have to tell you this though! I went on a date with a guy a couple of weeks ago and he told me that he once was attacked by a bunch of Asian tourists who wanted to take his picture and wanted his autograph because they thought that he was Ryan Gosling. He looks nothing like Ryan Gosling. Though he looks a little bit like this other guy that I have ...

Getting a Pet

Image
If you are the kind of person that don't go outside a lot and never exercise, getting a pet can actually be a great way to change that. I mean, if you for example get a dog you need to go outside and walk your dog a couple of times a day because dogs A) need to go outside to pee and poo and B) dogs need exercise. Since it's your responsibility as the dog's owner to make sure that your dog get the exercise that it needs and that it gets the chance to actually go outside and do its business you will also benefit from it. Some dogs need more excise than others, so if you want a lot of exercise get a dog that needs a lot of exercise. Yes, dogs can be expensive. I am not just talking about what it can cost to buy a dog. I am talking about all the expenses that comes with it. You know like a car. It's not just the what the car itself costs, you also have to get insurance, gas, cleaning the car and so on and so on. It's the same with getting a pet. The pet needs ...

Renovation Time

Image
Hi every one and sorry for not posting anything yesterday. I was at work all day and when I got home I tried to beautify myself because I was going out to dinner with a friend. When I got home I just didn't feel like blogging. I just wanted to watch Netflix. My friend and I went to RAW, which is the best sushi restaurant in Stockholm! I am not kidding when I say that they have the best sushi in town! It's freaking delicious. And the restaurant has such a nice atmosphere. I feel like yesterday was good karma because my friend and I sat next to a Buddha statue. We had such a lovely time. Instagram: @eriikaworld I don't know if I've said this before but I feel like not when I work Monday through Friday the weekend feel so much more desirable. It's so nice to have to days off and I do appreciate it more and take more adverting of the free time that I have. Not that I have done anything special today. Depends on how you see it though. I have started a small ren...

Midsummer Weekend

Image
Hi! And Happy Midsummer every one! Midsummer is basically over but still. So did you have a great night last night? What did all of you party animals do? I hung out with my good friend Patricia. We just walked around the city and accepted what our beautiful capital had to offer. No but we went to this place on the south side that she has been talking about forever. Is this bar with an amazing view over the city. So breathtakingly beautiful! We were basically there the whole night and smoked up the magical view and then we walked around for a but. It was nice. In case you're not Swedish, use Swedes take midsummer very seriously. The whole country shuts down for Midsummer Eve (which was yesterday) and Midsummer Day (which is today). And people part very very vey hard. I am not over exaggerating! All of the stores and malls are closed! Some restaurants and cafés are open though. Which is nice, since I met Jessica for a fika today. It was such lovely weather that I felt like it would...

Don't Go Bacon My Heart

Hi! How are you? I am really good because I got the sweetest Valentine's day card from my friend Patricia. It is so sweet! LOL. Now I feel bad that I didn't send her a card. But I did send a a Christmas Card and I didn't get one from her. LOL.  It really doesn't matter if she sends me a card for Christmas or not. I know that we are friends either way! But this was just really unexpected which just makes it so much more special! She is the best! your writer, Erika

Love, Erika

Hi again or whatever. How are you guys? Did you have a good weekend? I kind of did. No I actually did. I feel like I got a lot done with my essay. It is basically done. I went to the movies with a friend who I barely see since we live in different cities, and school and work comes in the way for the both of us. But this weekend she was in Stockholm so we went and saw Cinderella . It was really good. Today I went to a kids party for little Olivia who turns FIVE! Well, she turns five in a couple of days but the party was today. My cousin, Moa, from London was there because she took a quick trip to Stockholm because of the Melodifestivalen finale that was last night. I didn't know that she was going to come so I had to quickly wrap her present as well and write her card so that I could give it to her now (and save myself some money on shipping). Her birthday is not today either, it's in like 10 days or so but she is just such nice person that I really wanted to give her something....

Priorities

Hi! I just want to try and make a quick post now since I never seem to have time to write anything here. I should really be doing other stuff right now but I feel like this blog needs some attention as well. LOL. How is everyone? I am good. A bit stressed out because of school. You know what I am the kind of person that stresses over school thin that I will fail and all and BAM! I don't, instead I ace the whole thing. It's so weird. LOL. Maybe I need more self-confidence but I don't feel like I am that super negative about myself. Maybe when I get stressed because then I feel really pressured to perform well. Hmm. Hopefully this won't be a stressful weekend! I was going to work today but that got cancelled, which in away made me kind of happy because this is the first Friday in a while when I have to work. But I have school and other work, so like I am happy that I can take care of that today. Yeah! I feel like I am really getting somewhere with this essay that I have...

Last Friday Night

Hi guys! Okay so hmmm, didn't I tell myself that I was going to go to bed now? LOL. I gotta post a lil something for you guys first. I haven't posted anything all weekend. I guess I have finally got a life besides this blog. Not that I love it here because I do, but it is also fun to do things in real life. Things that you can blog about. LOL. I am not going to tell you everything about my weekend but I am going to tell you that I have had fun. I went to a birthday dinner for my friend Linda who turned 22! Old lady! LOL, no she is not old. I am also turning 22 this year. April 6th and y'all better not forget! Hahaha. No, but it was nice. We don't see each other that often now because she doesn't live in Stockholm anymore. So whenever she is in the big old city that we both were born and raised in we try to see each other. Not that she lives far from Stockholm. Talk to you some more tomorrow! Goodnight luvies! your writer, Erika

Self-reflection

Idk, guys. So I have started to get like eczema around my eyes. They itch and when I wake up in the morning they are kind of swollen and a little bit red. Plus I think that it looks like I have gotten dark circles under my eyes. Like a little bit more than before. Or idk. Everything just feels worse because the skin around the eyes is tense because it's dry and a little swollen. So like I don't feel like my normal beautiful self. All I can think of is like concealer to hide that they are red and the dark circles. Anyways, what I am trying to say about me wanting concealer to hide the hideousness that has suddenly appeared on my face is probably all in my head. Yes, people have commented on my eczema (when I have mentioned it to them). But today when I hung out with a friend she told me that I looked really fresh, awake and happy. Exactly not how feel. Happy maybe but not fresh and maybe not awake (I kind of feel like I look like a dead zombie). Then when I went to Sephora bec...

It's a New Year

OMG! I am so sorry! I have done it again - not blogged for several days! Ooops! LOL. But Happy New Year everyone! Did you have a good night last night or this morning or however/ whenever you celebrated? I did! I had a fantastic time. I made other plans and spent New Years with friends and I don't want to kiss and tell but lets just say that it was pretty eventful. Or maybe lets just put it as that way I experienced it. I am excited for the year to come! 2014 was an funny year, especially the last few months! I have had a lot of fun and got to do things that I have dreamt of my whole life. Plus I have made some really great friends. I really love the chance I got of begin an extra in Alena - a movie that I am really excited to see! When I know more about the release date of the movie I will tell you. I hope that I will get more chances like that in 2015! your writer, Erika

Got Any Plans For New Years?

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...

Not Much To Say

Hi guys. How are you today? I am okay I guess. I went and watch this new Swedish game show today. It was okay. I don't know when it when it will. When I know I'll tell you a little bit more about the show. When I was there I met this woman who is in the same acting workshops as I. So that was fun. We sat next to each other during the taping and discussed what we thought was he right answer. The show was interesting but I don't think that I'll watch it when it airs. I mean it's fun to go to a taping but, idk Swedish game shows, or game shows in general for that matter isn't really my thing. On my way home, on the bus I met this woman who I always meet at TV show taping and - funny thing - she works at the school where I take the acting workshops. Funny. Small world. OMG, I seriously don't know how to finish this post. I don't know what to talk to you guys about. There is too much on my mind to sort out what to tell you guys. Hahaha sorry. I gotta think...

LM MK MJ

Ooooo, already 11 PM. Well, well! Don't forget to set back the watch tomorrow. The best thing about setting back your watch is that you get to sleep one extra hour tomorrow! Yeah! Cheers today!! One extra hour of sleep, I am so excited about that! You know what I have kind of always liked Little Mix. I means since I found out about them. I liked there music but I wasn't like a Mixer or anything. I didn't become a Mixer until I went and saw One Direction at Friends Arena in Stockholm earlier this year. I mean they were showing music videos (over and over and over again) on the big screens before Camryn (who opened for One Direction on the European tour) and when you have heard the same song about 6-7 times in hour it kind of starts to grow on you. So yeah now I am a complete Mixer. Hehehehe. You know (if you are a Mixer), LM's new single Move . So, um, yeah when I first heard it I didn't like. I didn't dislike it exactly. I mean I liked it but I wasn't in...

You Got Me Going Crazy

Today has been a day. Quite a day, but the fuck cares. I have to much going for me anyway. Like tomorrow I am going meet Linda and Jessica and we are, well I am and they are going to advice me on something I have never done before. I have never done this before and I am totally insecure about this whole thing but everyone is telling me to go for it. I have never put so much thought into a thing like this before. Never! God, what is wrong with? Mhmmm, but everyone is telling to just do it and Jessica says it's very sweet of me. I don't know. At least I have good friends who's helping me and telling me I am not a crazy person. 'Cause seriously I need that! I have never cared this much about something like this before and I seriously hope that I am not coming off as obsessed or something. I don't know what I am hoping by this. I want to believe that I am special but I am just one in the crowd of crowds. I am seriously no one and should probably stop! Ahhh, this is what...

University In Sweden

Hi guys! I think that my bad habit from USA has followed me to Sweden. Hahaha. I think I fell asleep during class yesterday. Gosh what is happening to me?! It was a dark movie theater and a not so interesting movie. I was leaning on my bag and all of the sudden it was that boring music and closing credit (it was n Chinese so I really have no idea) and people were leaving. Ooops! Hihihi. But in the United States people couldn't really blame me. Well, I think so because I went up at 5:30 AM so that I could make it to my 8 AM class (keeping mind that it to me about 45 minutes to get to school). You know what? It takes me longer to get to school here in Sweden that it did in SB. WTF?! Like, "Hello, dude!" Like right now I am not like "Yeah!" about school but maybe it's like Sara said that once you get to know people it will be a lot more fun. I met this one girl today who has a friend at NYU and an other friend or maybe it was her friends' friend who goes ...

Facerape Master

That's me. Hahaha! Today in school I faceraped a guy in my class. So much fun. OMG! I changed his profile picture to a picture of Rebecca Black, I liked her and Miley Cyrus facebook pages, I commented on a few of his friends statuses, I like all of his friends statuses, I changed his relationship status from single to in a relationship with someone he is friends with, I friend requested a few people and.... what more did I do (Linda?). The whole thing started with that Linda, Hera and I was in one of the computer rooms in school because we were going to edit a video for an assigment in our religion class. I sat down at one of the computers. Linda wanted to sit at the one on my left side but someone was logged in. I shook the mouse so the the screen would light up so that I could she who was logged in. I saw that it was a guy in my class. At first I thought nothing about it. But the the thought hit me "Lets see if he is logged in on facebook", which he was. Mohahaha!...

Good People Are Always Great

Today has been a good day so far. I have had fun. This morning I put in my photograms in my scrapbook. I like scrapbooking it's fun. Do you have a scrapbook?           I can't wait for tomorrow - not that anything special is happening but I get to waer a pretty dress. I love getting dressed up even if is just for school. I mean I don't get dressed up dressed up if you know what I mean. I like looking good. I like people who care about whate they wear. I don't care what my friends wear. All I care about is that they are kind to me and in general.  Or what do you say? Good people are always great (LOL, good people are always good and great people are always great). your writer, Erika

Let's Be Friends

I changed the song of the moment yesterday to Emily Osment's Let's Be Friends . I love that song! It's a great song for a party. The music video is awesome too!           I don't get why Emily isn't more famous, like Miley Cyrus. They are both just as talented (in my opinion at least). What do you think? I "knew" who Emily was before I even knew that Miley exctited. I mean I had seen a couple of movies that Emily have starred in. Like Spy Kids 2 and 3D . She is talented! Miley is too (dauh!!!).           Anyway I am almost addicted to Emily's song Let's Be Friends . I have to buy her cd Fight or Fly . I don't have to but I want to. LOL! Have fun today everybody. Make love not war! your writer, Erika .p.s. Miley and Emily is spelt with the same letters, just rearragne them XD
