New Hair Colour
Or well.. improved hair colour. :) Got highlights and a toner. Very very pleased!
And the lady was so nice to me.. haha mentioned I'm on a budget since it is the end of the school year. So I got a full head highlights for the price of halfhead + still keeping the student discount.
I needed to get my special shampoo that cost £10.. and since my hair is getting super frizzy at the moment I've been looking at morrocan oils.. but they cost £10 for a shampoo + £10 for conditioner... too expensive. But she had a special offer for non-students that she gave me :P half price so both for £10! + an extra little bottle of oil.
So yes. I spent a lot of money... But I got a lot of great offers and saved a lot of money as well. And I have enough haircare products to last me 'til january! haha So I reckon big expense now.. but save in the long-run.
and I love soup and porriage so I'll just live on that for my last 20 days ;)
....
Today.... feels like it's gonna be a good day.
Hair colouring, eyelash colouring, get the book out for the summer and the pole. Now how could that be the recipie for anything else than a perfect day?
Love this photo of me and mama Hannah.
trend?
I actually think it looks kind of cool... This new trend "ankle cuffs".
Especially with a pair of black heels. A nice pair of shorts and a simple top.
(No worries I'm not turning pretend fashion blog on you)
Just need inspiration for the summer! Need some hope that summer is actually coming.
Considering a topic that keeps poping up
... especially lately - Video games. Most of my friends seem to like them, family members like them and my boyfriend likes them.. I just do not.
I don't loath them. And it would be a lie if I said I never plays.. because I do, and those 3/4 times a year I tend to like it.
But that's it. Very rarely Like it - and when I play it is never a sports game. I enjoy killing/shooting games or trivia games. But that's about it. Nope I don't even play computer games. Or correction I haven't played computer games since I had that sims addiction 10 years ago.
Why.. Don't know. I used to think it was because I wasn't part of that "era" but too many of my friends are fanatic. What can I say, I have never been interested and I have never liked it.
I'm an old fashioned girl! What happened to sitting around a table with a tasty dinner and a glas of wine just talking? Or even watching a good movie is better! At least then more people are involved. I know a lot of people are know thinking that video games do envolve people and make people interact--- yeah that's only if everyone likes it. And since I'm an old school fart I don't feel the slightest involved. If anything I'm probably considering bed.
Unfortunately with most friends enjoying it far too many nights end up with everyone wanting to play video games. And I just get bored watching.
Maybe I am doomed to be alone in this. But I just don't like it...
Second years done!
I've now done 50% of my university time is now done.
Feels a bit odd to be honest, but I'm very pleased with how my exams went. I feel like the sticking to the books and the library did pay off. I'm not great at writing essays during exams (I always digress and forget about the question half way through), but I feel like there was a few questions I could have had a good chance with. Hopefully now I did the right ones :P
Management yesterday; Got the right questions. Spot on what I'd studied and felt comfertable with. Now just a matter on how well I presented my ideas.
Art History today; one question that I really had studied -mr Duchamp and his readymades. So Very pleased about that and then... a quesiton about the relationship between activism and art during the 60's to the 90's. Spot. On. My subject.. haha and I'd read just this morning about performance art that is very much about activism. But yeah... hopefully I got my knowledge across.
It's really difficult sometimes. And I would like to remind people... english is not my first language. There has been times when I don't even understand the essay questions. And today I think I spend 5 minutes just thinking about "sayings". I know what swedish one I want to say and then remembering the english equivalence.. argh so frustrating.
Celebrations will/have taken place. ½ fish supper and a bottle of good rekorderlig swedish cider. And later on Football in the union. Good times. Couldn't be better.
Now gonna focus on anjoying myself until I return to sweden on the 20th. And I'm gonna clean my room and file all my papers from this year into folders. All the stuff to mark the end.. and to get some order on my desk which has a pile of paper that has grown during the year quite substantially.
Happy swed says puss å kram
T minus 19h
(I think?) until exam number 1 shall begin. Then I have another 24h until my last one.
I'm really happy about my exam schedule; 2 days, 2 exams and 4 essays. Then it will all be over.
Only problem is, I feel... ready. And usually this shouldn't be a problem but it means I have difficulty to focus on the last cramming of names and thesis and theories and models. I know it... but I don't..? if that makes any sense to anyone. I have now spent the past 2 weeks in the library (minus 2 days) and I'm just a bit fed up with it. Haha motivation is gone!
I have already been in the library for 5h today. wow. And I have another 2-3 to go. Until I have to go home and eat before pole tonight. (which I'm so happy I have! need a break from studying and thinking about studying!). Then I'm gonna go home. Have a lovely shower and lay in bed and read over the notes on last time before an early night.
It feels a bit unreal. But I can't wait to get my normal life back and see my friends.. and bf for that matter. haha we're both in the lib about 4 meters appart but we are both far too study-minded (not to be confused with actual focus haha).
Just can't wait. I think that's the feeling of the day. Excitement, not nerves... just really looking forward to it! I've tried! I could always have done more obviously and spent more hours more effectivly.
Got my black ink pens in the bag, my watch layed out on the sidetable and my water bottle filled.
Hit me with your best shot Exams
with a chilling glas of wine
Sitting here watching Made In Chelsea (and getting utterly frustrated since thay are all douchbags), sigh* and have a lovely art history book in my knee reading during the breaks ;)
Exams are getting nearer now. Butterflies are slowly comming about... friday and saturday then my 2nd year is completed. Feels so good. Still feel confident. Still a lot to do but 3 more -full- days. Should be enough for the final cramming :)
But yep. it's all good.
Also managed for the first time ever to actually file for a complaint when I've been treated shitty at a service place. And it paid off! complementary meal.. and I'm willing to give them a chance to imprve the service. To be fair, I've been there 2 times prior this occation and had really (reaaaally) slow service. Had to actually go up and grab a waiter that was "off duty" to pay for my meal! And this time... after 30 min waiting for someone to get our order - we all walked out. That's just redicolous. In a basically empty restaurant.
So pissed. But yeah. haha getting angry here again. They emailed me back quickly, said they were sorry.. and offered a free meal. Which I'd take. And hopefully I'll leave with a better impression then "I walked out starving lets hit the closest pub!"
day off
with 5 days left until my first exam and studying for it for the past 3 weeks I decided I'm taking a proper day off! Sitting here with wine and a crumble pie.
tomorrow I'll have an early morning and a full day in the lib.
peace out
too tired to think... and I'm getting food obsessed.
and that's why this blog entry shall be iiiiin... swedish! Palla tänka på engelska. Har vart lite 50/50 med pluggningen och fokuset de senaste 2 dagarna. Så jag ska prova en fin teknik imorgon - sovmorgon. Efter två 7:00 morgonar i biban känns det som en lugn morgon. Är det fint väder tänkte jag ta en morgon promenad runt stan (känner hur onyttigheterna smyger på och lika så kilora) -hem och göra en brunch som jag hittade på nätet majs suffle. Den är inte så söt (förutom majsen då). Hittade en kanon mat hemsida: http://happyxbelly.blogspot.co.uk/
Så himla mycket gott!!! och det mest är nyttigt :D omnomnomnom haha lovade ju pojken att jag skulle laga mat till honom och att han skulle få välja... men just nu är jag rädd att han kommer välja bara stek och potatis ;)
Nej men ja tillbaka till mat och plugget. måste bara få lite balans. Känner att det är mycket stress ätande och oregelbunda tider. biban 8-närsomhelst och vad som helst.. haha macka oftast- sen hem och äta vad jag orkat laga.. pasta.. sen hugnrig efter dålig mat = snack.. inte bra inte bra. Nej Men detta ska det bli ordning på :P
Men först och främst... klara dessa prov. Känns dock bra (för en gångs skull haha tror aldrig jag kännt mig så här redo någonsin. Synd bara att det är en vecka kvar).
NEJ! nu dusch sen sängen. Även om jag har sovmorgon imon behöver jag inte vara vaken till 2... <3 puss å kram alla. Livet är after all... not that bad. Pojke jag älskar, vänner jag älskar, familj jag älskar... och jag älskar mig själv (med det där extra stress kilot eller ej).
Rocksoc - First week done
So I have now more or less done my first week as a new treasurer, and so far so good. All paper work to transfer me to the account have been sent away. First cheque paid. Learnt HOW to pay by cheque done.. and I have slowely started to get the stuff in my order... not that the previous one was any messy. If anything it was the opposite, but you know what it's like... you just have to find your own methodology to do things and store things.
Unfortunately I have been really f-ing ill this week. Proper flu. Getting better now, but it did mean that at yesterdays first rocksoc as a committee member I wasn't in my ace. Spend most of my time working on my notes. The I had my door shift... by 1-1:15 I was done for the day with all duties done. Still perfectly sober. So I had one beer just to celebrate then I danced my ass off for half an hour before heading back to Dave's.
I think that's the best bit though... feeling.. well not sick but just tired to the point that thinking has gone out the window and just snuggle in next to someone warm. Best. Bit. Ever.
Now: Work, work, meet up for committee stuff, work, work, eat, work... sleep? alt. more work
