DISQUS

I am getting to know my self and my strengths, for one. I am much happier about my life , I am mote at peace being who I am. I used to lead a very superficial life. My nirvana was shopping, drinking( partying) and guys, guys ,guys!s To my surprise that did not make me happy. It made me feel empty and depressed. I have managed to turn my life around 360 degrees. I live with less and for less, so to speak. I enjoy the small things in life and really appreciate good food. I am becoming a little housewife..in some areas...I might add..iI do have a lot of dustbunnys under my bed. I use my creativity everyday and I love it. I take long walks outside and enjoy libraries and cafees as much as the next person.

I secretly desire luxury and old school glamour. Silk camisoles, diamonds and champagne. Huge candlelit dinners and long evening gowns,swoon...my daily luxuries are earl grey tea, vanilla scented candles, lattes and reading old classics:)

I have always been a rebel and I still am. I do not like to be one of the crowd, I like to make my own way. That`s the way I have always been. Still, though, I am an excellent cookf and I luuuuuve cooking. I adore the role of the 50s housewife...cooking, entertaining and being merry all around. Just remember, I did say role. It is fun playing around. I love Christmas as well, though that`s more due to my inner child:) I beleive i am a good mix of consevative and rebel, though I would neverever admit to it. I love a man in a coat and suit..mmm

Great dresses teamed with long wool cardigans and gret leather boots:) plus a thick 70s belt to get the hole thong together! And about as much lattes as I can get through the season, please! And I wouldn`t mind a glass of chardonnay either.

Did I ever. I was snobby, gossipy and righteoud as well. Oh..what a nightmare. I used to be an intellectual snob and forwn uopon anyone or, more rightfully, almost everyone`s taste in literature and arts. I did not feel great at the time, I felt very unsignificant. I lashed out at everyone to inflate my ego. Kharma finallay came and bit me in the ass, and now I feel really sorry for verything I did or said in that period. I recently met an old friend and he was in the " snobby and righteous" period as well. It made me laugh at first, it seem to be one of the stages in our development. Then I noticed how it seperates you from others, how can anyone feel like a part of the world when they are always better than everyone else? I remembered how lonely I felt at the time. I think part of our journeys goal is to understand that we are all the same and when you get that, really get that. that we are one, then your ego deflate and the world will be a better place.

I sense if I have made the right choice, then I become energized and peppy. If I make poor choices my energy level goes straight down the floor. I just need to pay attention and I will know, though I am impulsive and often act without taking it in consideration.

I know a lot about art, aesthetics, beauty and form. That is my passion.My other passion is humans and I know a lot about them, too;) Art and humanity walk hand in hand. The greatest pisces of art touch our commonness, that we are all humans and alike. There is no greater, there is no smaller, just equality!

A lot, and I am so grateful for it. Suddenly the possibilities are endless. Good things come in threes or more:) I am so excited about my article being printed,future jobs, friends, writing, writing,writing, family, new friends, sewing my own clothes,scented candles-especially vanilla, the future--it holds good things,
the upcoming weekend, photography , art, design and that I am going to be an aunt soon. And that I get to write new things here each day, God bless and thanks!

I adore No more belongs here more than you by Miranda July. It is funny, witty, smart, highly original and moving. It has been a long time since i read a book like this!

I find self confidence, humor and generosity sexy. Honesty and being able to laugh about yourself is also a turn on. I have to add voice as well. I was in a relationship with this beautiful, tall and dark man and his deep. husky voice made my day! I really miss that oh so sexy voice in my ear vispering sweet nothings. He had a great body as well, I remember cuddling in his arms. Ok then,big arms and great bod..definetely an asset. Girls just want to be crushed in your arms , guys. And as for chivalry..it is not a question it just is the way it should be. Open the door, pull out my chair and I am all yours , baby!

I find self confidence, humor and generosity sexy. Honesty and being able to laugh about yourself is also a turn on.

1. a morning in solitude with heaps of papers, scones and coffe outside in the sun.
2. a coffedate with a friend including a trip to an art museum
3. being creative and using my design skills/ reading/watching movie for inspiration
4. making a great dinner and invite all my friends
5. A walk in the dark with my camera

I hide when I need a break and feel a bit vulnerable. I rest in my bed and watch dvd`s that makes me happy. I walk in the woods or by then sea and just sit still for a while. Nothing is like the voices of nature, waves hitting the shore, seagulls cries, wind sweeping trees and birds singing. It soothes my heart.

I love to bake and especially scones at the moment. It only takes one minute to make them, and I do it every morning. I eat them with clotted cream and raspberry jam. Can there be anything more delicious first thing in the morning?? mmmm...

I find that I am sacred to me. It has taken me a long time to reach this point and it is still a struggle, because I love to help and take care of other people. This passion has led to me being taken advantage of and I have had a few one way relationships. That has been my lesson, to be strong enough to put myself in focus and love my self the way I love others. Nature and children is sacred to me as well . As I see it, they go hand in hand. We have to take care of our surroundings to leave the planet a better place for the new generations.

Walking. I love to walk whenever and wherever. When I travel to new cities or places in the world, I have found that the best way to get to know a city is by walking. I recommend it, especially if you are visiting London. Walk through the many lovely parks, by the Thames or in the busy streets, and you will get to know the city in a whole new way. I have set myself a new goal this year and that is to stop impulse shopping! In cheap clothes stores, I may add:) I tend to buy a lot on impulse and surprise , surprise... I find them in the back of my closet a year later. Overconsumation is my pet peeve or has been. I have started to appreciate 50/60/70s design and go to thriftstores and on e-bay for a specific sum each month. And it is working! Overspending and overstuffed closeth, bye,bye ! Oh, I do love libraries as well. I love books and tend to, you guessed right, shop way to many books as well. My apartment is cramped with books and I love them all too much to get rid of them. So, no bookshops, just an art book now and then . Library therefore, is my new love. I can rent all the books I would like. And that is a lot:)

I think people have more in common than they think. I always have wanted my mothers love. I have come to realize that she the best she could at the time.I also visualize her giving me a hug and me smiling. It makes me more relaxed and our relationship more grown up. Love is unconditional and you should not do anything to make your mother love you. Your birth gave you that right. If the relationship is a one way street I suggest you move on. Do not be sad about it, it is all about your growth. Do not give your power to her as you do now when you need her love. Be strong, start to know yourself and learn to love yourself. From now on I think you should have ME time all the TIME:) It is fun. Love and encouragement from someone who has been down the same road!

I need to stop being a people pleaser. I hope new generations of little girls will learn first and foremost to be them self and voice their opinions. It is no use to play small just to make people comfortable. Now it is time for me to be comfortable!! And I must say it is quite fun;)

I was told that if you dont`t control your life, someone else will . It gave me the shivers...it was like a cold wind rushing through my spine. From that day forward I have regained control of my life. Destiny may have given you a bad hand, but when you are an adult you have to stop blaming everyone from your parents to siblings, bad boyfriends or your evil secondgrade teacher. Take control , listen to your gut and be happy!!

The biggest improvement would have to be myself. I have to get out of my head and onto the sheet. And I could do with a tidy up, I work best when everything is tidy and frankly, now it is a mess. I think I will start right away, now that I understand that there is no big, mental block crossing my way. Thanks:)

I love my lattes, so I would probably buy as many of them as I could. Not very profound, I am afraid:)

I plan to meditate and do yoga everyday. I nee to de- stress a bit.I also plan to have fun and not take myself too seriously. And I will try to take a walk in the woods as often as possible. And write and be more creative, things just keep popping up. I think I should plan to not have a plan and that`s it,really! Or rather, I plan to be happy, at peace and productive. The end:)

It is my hair, it is very frizzy and sometimes looks like a bush. I have started to grow it longer and that is actually helpful, it can`t be that big when it is longer, phew. I have tried every frizzfree wonderproduct there is, but it doesn`t help one bit. Saltwater, though, makes my hair curl beautifully.

It is natural that your home reflects who you are! Just like clothes, the people you hang out with and the books you read . If pretencious, like having Kafka and Dostojevskij on the coffeetable, that is a matter of Ego. There is a natural difference between the sexes in this matter and so is taste. I remember with fright my boyfriends homemade wood clown clock.

My home is just like i want it to be, a true reflection of who I am. It is bold, spiritual,packed with books, artistic, relaxed, cosy and romantic. I wondered how it all would come together, all the different aspects of me, but it mixed really well. I am quite a paradox, very romantic indeed and yet bold, dramatic, have a real zest for life and any adventure that comes my way. To put it in short, I am a romantic tomboy. A bit like Anne of Green Gables and a bit like Annie get your gun. It always takes people by surprise, because I look very sweet and innocent, indeedio.
