Machine Guns
Vintage denim vest, military jacket from random shop in Paris, vintage velvet maxi dress, JC cuffs, necklaces from Topshop, Gina Tricot, Ebay and DIY, vintage mini backpack, Cheapo shoes.
Got the dress and the cuffs yesterday. I'm a sucker for velvet, in case you haven't noticed. Velvet and lace. The cuffs were on sale. I've been wanting them forever, but always thought they were too expensive, and now I'm glad I waited because I ended up getting them for only 20 SEK each. I need to get hold of more bronze jewelry, it's gorgeous.
And I have to say that I'm really loving my blue hair. The shade is perfect.
Sorry about not updating yesterday, I was going to, but I ended up sitting on a café with Malvina, and later also our other classmate Kersti, for hours, and I wasn't home until after 23.00. By then I was far to tired. But I have another video for you, that is sort of a commercial for our club/concert night next tuesday. I'll post it later or tomorrow!

Ordinary day.
Goof video from today. All is subtitled in English, partly because we speak mostly Swedish, and partly because it's sometimes hard to hear what is said. I'll probably post the "serious" film when it's finished as well.

cloaks
Monday again, and another day of working on our project. Only a week and a day until it's time for Green Room @ Debaser. If you're in Malmö or nearby you really should come, because we've put so much work into this (despite what the work in this photo might suggest), that it'd be awful if there's not many people there. The bands/artists that are going to play are Isak Strand, Death in the Afternoon, Mud Walk, To All My Friends and According to Jon. 22/5. Be there or be square.
We finished the second backdrop today, and we made a film of when we put it together. I'm gonna post is as soon as it's been edited. Tomorrow we're filming for projections that will be on some of the walls. Some of the people in my group are coming home with me to film in the woods where I live. Yes, I live by a forest, in case you didn't know.
And yes, in school we were cloaks of crushed velvet. Really. We do.

Mermaid

So. I dyed my hair blue. It didn't turn out quite as I wanted it to, but I'm very pleased nontheless. The pink was all wached out and I really do not like having blonde hair. Even when I was all blonde, for all those years, it didn't quite feel right. Colouring it dark is one of the best things I've ever done. The only thing I miss about having light hair is the ability to dye it in any colour I like. It's the only reason I've kept my dip-dye even for this long. I hope this blue colour last long because I really like it! I feel like a mermaid (dunno why), thereof the post title. The shade is Midnight Blue from Directions.

Brave New World
Despite alreadly knowing what would happen, due to Fringe's amazing ways of spoiling itself, I was totally freaked out by the end of the season finale. You have no idea. There's too much emotion. And also, it was by far the grossest episode ever. I mean, I'm not that bothered by blood and stuff, usually, and I'm very rarely grossed out by Fringe, but some of the stuff in this ep was just EEEWW. That thing with Jessica in the chair with the eyes is gonna give me nightmares.
Note that my blog is not spoiler free. Ever. When I write about shows I watched I don't really care whether I might spoil it for anyone. If I ever do, you only have yourself to blame for going on the internet.
Sorry, I can't hear you over HOW TOGETHER AND STUFF MY OTP IS.

Bossypants
I still don't have any new proper photos for you (if you don't count the first of these, because it was taken today), so here's some that was on my phone. Reason for this is actually the first picture. Almost, anyway. I know I told you my classmates and I are having a club/concert evening at Debaser (a pretty well-known club) in Malmö on May 22nd. I'm in the art direction group (in lack of better name), and my group within this group (it's a group in a group in a group), are working on two backdrops for the two stages at Debaser. We finished the first one yesterday and are about half way through the second. We spend our days cutting, stitching and glueing fabrics, and sometimes wrap ourselves in them, like Hillevi (my nemesis) in the picture. This means I'm a bit limited in what I can wear to school, I don't want to ruin my clothes. So it's mostly jeans and t-shirt and hair in a ponytail. No fun to post.
The last photo is from Tina Fey's book Bossypants. I've been working my way though it, slowly, but not because it's bad, the opposite indeed, but because I'm to lazy to read these days. It's much easier to just watch TV-shows (30 Rock, for example *hinthint*). I think ms Fey would find that a legimate excuse. Anyway, my point is, that the book is great. I absolutely love it. It's fun and honest, and she's being truthful without being depressing/dream-crushing (is that a word?), and that's something that's seriously hard to get these days. Usually people are either sugarcoating the world, or telling you how much it sucks and we should all just kill ourselves. Bossypants is somehow telling you all the bad stuff about different things, but it also makes you remember the good stuff that are the real the reason behind them. And did I mention it's hilarious. I almost laughed out loud on the bus home today, like a crazy person.

All my life I've tried to fight what history has given me
I have no new pictures, so you're getting old webcam photos instead.
I've started to look into scholarships and stuff for my plan to apply to London Collage of Fashion. I NEED a scholarship to be able to attend, but if I get that, and pass all of the other tests that are required, I think my chances of getting in are pretty good. I'm applying for Fashion photography, in case you didn't know. Because at the end of the line, the fashion industry is where I really wanna be. I know what my talents are, and I think that is where I belong. But it's still a long way away. I don't really want to go to art school, because I don't believe you can be taught how to be an artist. It's something you just are, if you have it in you. But being a fashion photographer is different. Being a photographer alltogether is different, but with fashion it requires a special skill. ANYWAY. I didn't set out to write about this when I started on this post, but there we go. I'm stopping now. Few things I don't really want to write about here are political/moral opinions, my life choices and private/personal matters. But there's some of all of that for you to enjoy.
I'm gonna return to watching Castle now. It's a crime drama from 2009 that I started watching last night. I've watched all of season 1 in about 24h. It's really great, for an American show........ BYE.

Pizza
I haven't had, not will I have, pizza today, despite what the title of this post may suggest. Not that I would have said, nor will say no to a pizza at any point of this day, of course. No, the title is simply because I had no better idea and this image's file name was pizza, because of the one Liz/Tina is eating in it.
I have other pictures, but I'm to tired and in to much pain from taekwondo practice that I will not engage in editing them tonight. Plus that it's almost 22.00 and I still have not had dinner (where the previously mentioned pizza would have been nice).
I finish this post without a point by stating that if there is a religion where Tina Fey is God then I will convert to it. And I keep failing to making the letter i capital when writing I. It's really time for food. Night.

30 Rock
I generally don't like comedy shows very much. Because it's only funny if you can relate to it, and I can't to most. But 30 Rock. My beloved 30 Rock. I love it so much. I've watched ALL episodes in a row this past winter, on Tenerife, and now I wait for new ones every week, while I'm currently re-watching everything as well. I'm a bit freaked out about it now, and it's so little left of season 6, I don't know what I'm gonna do!

Teen Idle
I know I'm not really a teen anymore, but it's a song, and it's about wanting to be a teen again, so I think it's alright. Marina & the Diamonds new album, Electra Heart, you should check it out!
Tha pink iz back. Finally. I've been planning it for weeks. Per usual, it's probably not gonna last long. This time I used Directions Caranation Pink, which is much lighter than the one I used last time, so I ended up using pretty much the whole can. My plan is to colour everything dark blue next time. Though I'm having problems whether I should go with Directions Atlantic or midnight. I don't think they differ that much in shade, only in darkness. Which means i probably should get midnight blue and blend it out... I've never had all blue hair before! Mostly because it's hell to get it washed out, but since my long term plan is to go back to all brown/black hair again soon, it'll work out. Exciting, huh? I'm super excited! I love hair stuff!
I'm of to school in fifteen minutes. We have a presentation today, and then a meeting about a poster. In case I haven't said, we (my class and I) are having a club at Debaser in Malmö on May 22. You should all come, if you're nearby at the time, it's gonna be pretty awesome, I think. The club is called Green Room.
Anyway, I gotta hurry now, cheerio!

Long black hair
I'm seriously considering this. I'm gonna get my pink back for a while, then I want to get long and black. Probably no fringe though, just extensions. We'll see what happens. Maybe I'll end up with black hair and pink tips. It all depends in how much it will pain me to dye away my blonde hair. But truth to be told I'm a bit sick of it. I don't really like the combo of brown+yellowish blonde that I have now. Anywaaaaaaay. Have some photos to edit now. BYE.

Lost
Two outfits from the past week that I haven't had the time to edit before now. I'm too lazy to write where everything's from, but most of it has been written in previous outfit posts anyway. If there's anything you're wondering about anyway, just ask! I don't beleive in bullshit like "I'm not writing where I buy my clothes because I don't want anyone to copy me". That's for people who think they're all something and are completely full of themselves. It's just seriously annoying.
As soon as my hair is dry from showering, I'm gonna take pictures of my new stuff for you!

I went to another event at H&M this morning. Breakfast shopping. Got two new pairs of sunglasses and these black heels. I'm totally in love with them. I'm gonna try and take some pictures of the other stuff I bought this weekend!

Fashion, put it all on me
Sorry I didn't update yesterday. I wanted to, but it was such a crazy long day. I was away from nine in the morning to ten in the evening. And between that there was meeting with my project-group from school, regular school, town with Lovisa, taekwondo practice and then crazy shopping event at H&M. When I came home I was so sleepy I didn't want to do anything. It was a good day, though. Anyway, I got hold of all the stuff I wanted from the new Fashion Against Aids collection. This black fringe dress for example. I'll post better pictures later! Gotta run now. Got another long day ahead of me.

Comment reply - Title
Nej, det är med helt vanlig html-kodning. I kodmallen, bland det första koderna som är, under <head> så finns där en där det står <title>någontextjagkommerinteihåg</title>. Den texten som jag inte kommer ihåg gör att ditt bloggnamn och bloggbeskriving kommer upp på fliken. Om du gör den ändring jag gjort så gör de inte det mer, bara så du vet. Mellan dessa <title> så tar man helt enkelt bort det som står, och skriver det man vill ska stå på fliken istället. I min kodmall står det t ex <title>MONS†ER YOU†H</title>.
Translation:
How did you remove the hyphen from the tab above the adressfield in the browser? Do you use blogg.se-PRO or something like that?
This is mainly for people who use the same blogging platform as me, blogg.se, because they have a special code so you get this hyphen in the text on your tab, and this is how you remove it. But since it's a code that goes for all html-coding on all blogs, I'll tell you how you do it in English as well.
In the html-code of your blog/website there's a code, almost at the top, under <head> that says <title>sometextIdon'tknow</title>. What is written in between these two title tags is what it says on the tab, it's your blog/website's title, so to speak. You can write whatever you like there. In my coding it says <title>MONS†ER YOU†H</title>, for example.

Monki Girl
Today's outfit: Vintage jeans jacket, Monki knitted sweater, Gina tricot long tank top, Monki leggings, Ebay creepers, DIY scarf and necklaces from various places and DIY.
That I'm wearing leggings only means one thing: that I'm to fucking tired to put on anything else. I generally don't like wearing anything but tights, but some days you just need to be comfortable. Then it's jeans or leggings. I really would have preferred to stay in bed today, but you know how it is. I'm not even wearing any make-up.
Anyway, got to go. Hope you all have a nice day or whatever.
