Erika's World

Today I was an extra in an ICA commercial. It was so much fun! I mean the ICA commercial are the best commercial for any Swedish product. For y'all who don't know what ICA is, let me explain. ICA, is a grocery store, well, it's a grocery store chain. Yeah, they have supermarkets called ICA MAXI. Anyway, the ICA commercials are very famous in Sweden. Sadly I am not allowed to post any pictures but since the commercial it's not supposed to air until week 10 next year and that's like three months away so nothing about the commercial can get out. I mean what fun would that be for the production company and for ICA who has ordered this commercial? All that hard work for nothing. Maybe if I remember it when the commercial airs, I'll post some pictures. Like I love being in front of the camera but it is also super awkward at times. I mean, like this is what I know how to do but like when you have to walk right in front of the camera with the camera moving right behin...

Hi so it's an early one, an early post. I mean I have to got to bed "early" tonight because I have to get up at 5 AM tomorrow because I shooting this commercial tomorrow and it takes about, well a little over an hour to get there. So yeah. Hahaha, yesterday I wasn't sure where I had put my passport but I no worries I found it. Thankfully, seriously I don't know what I would have done if I had lost it. Anyway, yeah so luckily I found it but today I lost my keys. Like I had no idea where I put them. I was going mad. Well, no I have taught myself not to like over react in those situations. If something is lost it's lost deal with it, it's a material thing that you can easily replace. Plus you just get worked up for no reason, and I feel that if you stay calm you'll find what you need easier and faster. So just stay calm and clear your mind and everything will work out. Luckily I found my keys in my jacket. But not that jacket that I last wore last, aka no...

So yeah! Found my transcripts! I don't need to spend 1495 kr on that. BTW, I would never had used that website since my gut was telling me that it wasn't legit. I didn't call skolverket, I didn't need too since I found my grades but I think that I'll might just call them anyway. Maybe tomorrow in-between takes. Hahaha. I mean I just want to know, I mean since my high school doesn't exist anymore what do I do if I want my grades/ need them? I mean if I need another copy of them. Seriously my mind is really dry tonight. Like what do you want me to tell you? Yeah, I am shooting another sketch for Høllefjord High tomorrow. I don't feel like I can keep telling you guys that same old story over and over again. Like even I am tired. I kind of feel like I am bragging. No, what I mean is. IDK what I mean. But seriously if I want to tell you about that I will tell you about that. It's my madda fucking blog! So, um yeah this was short. I just don't know wh...

OMG, hi guys! I feel stressed. A lot of things going on this week. First I had a shoot today, then an other tomorrow (two totally different things) and then I have Partaj on Wednesday as usual and then we are shooting another sketch for Høllefjord High  on Friday. I really hope that tomorrow shoot won't go on longer then it's supposed to because I have to be on set earlier than usual on Wednesday for Partaj . So I have to get up earlier and, yeah. I mean that's really don't only thing making me stressed. The time. That there isn't enough time. Well, it's just that I want to make sure that I get enough sleep so that I have energy for Partaj . Since I have been working with the Partaj  people a while now and that's a regular thing that I do, I feel like I am more loyal to that than anything else that I do. I mean, yeah, that's how it is. On set today I met one of the extras from Partaj . I was like (in my own world) "Yes! One familiar face!". S...

The typical Erika, buys a new umbrella, has a mini photo shoot in the kitchen. Has a signed copy of Isac Elliot's debut album, take a million pictures with it. LOL, pretty much my evening so far. Hahaha. But serisouly though, that is what I did. I mean I thing that it's fun to take selfies with cds. I used to do that more when I was a like 13-14 or so you know. IDK, the evidence is on my blog.  I don't know why I took like a million pictures with the umbrella? LOL. Maybe because I think that I looked good today. Hahahaha. But seriously I am so weird 'cause I have these moments where I think that I am fucking hot. Hahaha. Like, I know I am good looking. But anyway, I was looking for a picture of myself earlier so I was scrolling down my photo stream and saw a picture and thought for a second "WOW! Who's that hottie?!" Then I laugh to myself because it was just a picture of me. Hahaha. Like, the only one I take pictures of is myself and so I don't...

Today I have been to school and then I came home got bored and started studying my monologue for this weekend. It's going well. I just realized that it's Wednesday and that I don't have many days left to practice. I mean I have it memorized I just have to practice my acting, practice how to act the monologue or however you say it. English is not my first language. LOL. But it's funny though how the people in SWD say that I speak perfect english, like with an America accent but when I lived in America people constantly asked me "Is that an accent I hear?". But that was then, so it can be that I have learn from living there. I that I picked it up from living there. Like I didn't then but I do now, do get what I am trying to say 'cause I am like the worst at explaining things. EVER. I want to learn how to do a british accent. Maybe, I should move there? But what if my "american accent" disappears. I mean instead of having an "american acc...

Tomorrow I will get the pictures from the photo shoot that my teacher took. Maybe it they're good enough I will post some of them. That's all I wanted to say. Have a great Sunday night. your writer, Erika

Finally Friday or what do say? Not that I have had a though week but it is always nice when the weekend comes. I mean a few days off school is never bad? Am I right? Of course I am. Today felt kind of unneccessary, I mean that little time I spent in school. An hours. All we did was; meet up with out teacher at the church, got ready for the photo shoot with our capes (BTW, I am wearing the cape that I made in the pictures), did the whole photo shoot and went hope. In and out in an hour. I mean it just felt kind of pointless. Yeah, yeah maybe I shouldn't complain. It wasn't too bad. It was nice. From 1 PM to 2 PM. Done and done. Hehehe. Linda and I Linda's friend Anne and I Tonight I am finally going to watch Cowboys and Alines . Yeah! I rented the last copy. I am glad that there was at least one copy left. Have you seen the movie? your writer, Erika

I thought you might want to know how the "photoshoot" with SollentunaRevyn went. In case you don't, well then you don't have to read this post. Hehe. The photoshoot went smoodly. Catherine and I were supposed to be creative directors, tell the actors how to pose and so on but the director of the play basicly did our job. She was like "Pose like this", "Do this with your hands" and so on and so on. So Catherine and I just stood there. I told one actress to smile more because it is supposed to be a comedy. She just snassed me (ok, maybe she didn't snass me but anyway), and said "Well, I thought since this costume is more serious I should look serious." We weren't there for more than about 40 minutes. It was ok. I brought the t-shirt that I altered to show my teacher. She liked it. your writer, Erika
