Snooow???

Heeyyy!...heheee.... long time no write, eh?
So, I've been majorly slacking, which maybe you've noticed...I don't really have a super valid explanation, but all in all, I've been really stressed about school and such things and whenever I haven't been working on school, I've pretty much been sleeping. I actually went up to Stockholm last weekend to see a friend, which was a nice change, so I might show you some pics from that :)

Anyway, as I'm waiting for my cousins to arrive for the weekend, I thought I'd grasp the moment and update you. I'm in a really good mood today, thanx to many great things, not even the stress of the christmas shopping that I need to do or the spanish oral exam I have on monday is bringing me down today :)
Here's a little list of the things that make me happy right now:
- It's friday, and I've gotten through a particularly rough week :)
- I have an entire weekend ahead of me!
- I ACED a discussion-exam today in Humanities :D:D The teacher said I was the best in my group (yes, i might be bragging a litttllee, but I honestly always have an incredibly hard time with discussions/debates) 
- My cousins are coming soon :) haven't seen them in quite a long time!
- One of my favourite people in the world is coming home this weekend for christmas! :D
- Sunday, I'm meeting up with some girlfriends, one of which has been of fin england for the past 6 months, so that'll be sooo fun!
- The favourite person mentioned above is coming to stay on tuesday! <3
- Wednesday, I'm having a christmas breakfast with this person + 2 other favourite people!
- CHRISTMASSSSS HOLIDAYYYYSS in like 5 days!
- I'll get my permit for driving reaaal soon! so stoked!

etc etc....So you get it, I'm pleased about quite a lot of things right now! Hope that didn't bore you to death, perhaps it inspires you :) Make your own list about things that please you at the moment :)

On a slightly lesser note, I read something devastating in the newspaper today...something along the lines " Surprisingly mild weather this christmas" which in short terms translates to the probablility of getting snow being very slim! NO SNOW FOR CHRISTMAS?! :( We always get snow here! Can't remember a single christmas that hasn't been white....right now its just raining all the time. So hopefully the weather takes an unexpected turn and gives us some snow, or I'll be pissed (:
Whoever is in charge of the weather up there: You have about 6 days to go!






These are all from november last year...my longing for snow right now is unimaginable.. :(


Anyways, hopefully I'll get better at updating, I have a few ideas for some christmas-y posts :)
'Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la! haha :D

You know you miiisssed me! ;)

Cuteness x 3


 So, I showed the couch I posted earlier to my mum since I thought the price was really good for a couch, she thought it was worth having a look at so yesterday afternoon we headed for Ikea and came home again with this little cutie! Its possibly the cutest couch ever :P But its quite good that its small because it fits my room better and I now have somewhere else to sit than just my bed:) Isn't it cute?
I also picked up these cute little snowflake lights which I put in a glass vase on my bookshelf, a start to the holiday decorating that I'll elaborate on when were closer to december.
Speaking of cute things..thought I'd throw in a picture of some cupcakes that my friend Sofia and I baked last weekend, they were sooo sweet! :P


Hope you're all having a lovely sunday evening!

Feeling for furniture

Everything from ILVA except for the sofa, which is from IKEA

I really want to redecorate at the moment!
I really want a sofa and the one above from IKEA is like really cheap, gonna drop some hints to my mum so she'll check it out :P The other pieces are just inspiration of furniture that i'd like. I love silver details, especially on lamps!
+ I threw in some Holiday decor with the "Knitted" candle hilder and the little ornaments, I'm super stoked for christmas! exactly 38 days left (yes, I totally have a countdown thingy on my dashboard, thats just me being a dork) Christmas coming up gives me loads of inspiration, a nice change as opposed to what that level has been on for the last couple of weeks :)

Have a wonderful evening guys,
Personally I'm gonna watch some youtube videos then go to bed hoping that I'll wake up and feel better enough to go to school (I have a bit of a rough cold atm.)

Paris day 1!

Heyy! So I got back from Paris yesterday evening after a quite long day of travelling. I had a great time there and it was sooo much fun to see Vera again! We are so amazingly awesome together! :P
So here next I give you Paris day 1, which really is a compilation of monday and tuesday, since monday was only travelling.

Planes! :D I love Copenhagen airport!
Our terminal had a shortage of benches, which was really strange, so my sister sat on the floor instead...
We decided to rent an appartment instead of staying in a hotel, somewhat more convenient. We  stayed in the Saint Germain des pres area which was super! We had walking distance to pretty much everything! But the place was certainly petite :P nice and clean..but small. Vera and I stayed in the sofa bed all bundled up together haha!
Our building...




We were looking around in Printemps, which is a big luxury departement store, and were completley awed away by the christmas decorations...its only november but i got the hugest surge for christmas! + I look like a 5 year old in that last picture -.-
The streets were remarkably empty on tuesday, apparentley there was some kind of red day or whatever.




Notre dam!

Okay, waaaayy too many pics, but I hope you find them interesting! :D
Day 1 started out pretty slow since the weather was pretty bad but towards the evening it was nice and warm again. :)


Day 2 is coming up soon, its just that it takes ages to upload so many pics!
