Blossoming candy

I got home from SVS a bit later than expected and started to discuss with my tiredness if I was still willing to go to the Copenhagen Sakura Festival as I had first intended. In the end I decided to go even though I only made it there to participate in one of the events - the bon odori. But as that was actually the only thing I cared about seeing/being a part of, that was rather all right. It was so fun to dance with my friends!

In order to be able to make it in time for the bon odori I had to get dressed in my yukata + put on make-up in 10 minutes. And I actually made it. I must admit, I was very impressed by my own speed.

Introducing to all my lovely followers: My all-time favourite candy in the whole world. I first received this candy as a present from a Finnish artist about 5 years ago and ever since then I've bought it in the airport 1-2 times a year. You see, the super markets here in Denmark did not stock this amazing liquorish filled chocolate - that is, until now. So I kind of celebrated by eating the whole thing in 4 hours, haha... ha...



Today's outfit. It's actually my mom's dress... I just had to try and wear it, and she doesn't mind!

Btw, sorry for the Liv-spam. SO much me in this post. Awkward feeling much.

Super-sized chocolate

The past 3 years I've done something Valentiny (giving chocolates to friends, girl-dates) and the fact that I didn't this year actually made me kind of sad. So I decided to make some late Valentine chocolates!



I used soooo much chocolate and it looks to me like a whole bunch of it just went and disappeared, haha. But the chocolate does look cuter when it's shaped in a heart !



I made some with nuts, some with biscuit, some with those pink heart-shaped thingies - that was an experient, and it compleately failed haha, they were supposed to stay on the top and look nice - and some with crunch.



Today I went to watch "Gulliver's Travels" with Alex.
It's just a modern version of the good old tale we all (kind of) know. I found the movie to be funny, but far from brilliant in any way - not good, but not bad either.
I loved the act that there was a Prince reference in it - KISS was used - and some other good points. But it's really a movie you could just as well see while sitting in your couch at home.



But Jack Black is never NOT funny, right?

I'm going to a friend's place now. Bringing some chocolates for us to enjoy!!

Relaxed funkyness

Look what came in the mail - my Konad nail art things! If you haven't heard about this series, don't feel bad - I didn't either before two weeks ago. One of my followers and frequent commenters Ruth made a review about the product series on her blog a while back. That's how I found out about it!

It's really a clever idea. You have the image plate with the desired pattern. You fill it out with nail polish, scrape off the undesired nail polish and tranfer what's left of the polish over to the rubber stamper. Then you roll the pattern across your own nail. Simple and easy!

... sort of any way. It took me a littel while to figure out excatly how much polish I should use, how to tranfer etc. So the result isn't all that. But practice makes perfect!

When I left this container in the morning it was empty. And then I came home to all that candy. Awww thanks dear parents! That totally saved my day, haha.

I finally decorated my room for christmas. Usually I do it the 1st of December, bur because of all that's been going on I only just did it this Sunday. Which is really sad because it creates such a cozy atmosphere.

God Jul means "Merry Christmas" in danish.

God, I love those.. snow globes? Is that the correct name? The ones I have date some years back, so they remind me of the past - in a good way.

I'm going to dine with my classmates and teachers in a bit. This will be fun - we're planning on getting our teachers drunk.

Excitingly chocking

I just put the sixth book of Harry Potter back on the shelf after finishing it. And I am compleately heartbroken. I remember the last time I read the Half blood Prince. I didn't even find the death of Dumbledor chocking. But this time it was entirely different. I think it's because I've gotten to known Dumbledor better by reading all the books in one go. And now I'm feeling kind of empty and sad because he's gone.

It's funny how books can affect us. I think that's what I love about reading: Being compleately sucked in and feeling like I'm a part of the story.

I watched the fith and sixth movies with Emil the other day. I had thought about something while reading a part of the Order of the Phenix, the part where Hermione explains to Harry why Cho is sad about having a crush on him. The whole feeling-guilty-because-Cedric-is-dead thing. And I was like "Yes, totally understandable". And when the scene appeared in the movie I asked Emil if he understood Cho's feelings and his answer was "No, not at all". That kind of cracked me up. It's funny how different boys and girls think.

Argggg, I've been watching a lot of trailers and footage from the new movie today. I tried to not do it, I really did. But when people start talking about "how cool that looked in the second trailer" I really can't stop myself. And now I've got goosebumbs and just can't WAIT.

I'm totally behind schedule on the whole Halloween deal. I'm eating pumpkin candy and feeling wicked. And making a costume doesn't really help me getting over Halloween.

I say: DISNEY GOGO but they say "no"?!

Ms. No-neck, haha. Like my shirt my and my, Mickey is great.

Speaking of Disney... When I go to Japan this summer I really wanna go to Disney Sea, but my parents are like: "Why? It's boring.We don't want to". It's not really that expensive and I just really want it to be a part of our trip! But I really don't want to go there alone, all by myself - where's the fun in that?

Any of you have some good arguments to win them over?

Today we had aroung 14 degrees celcius and the sun was so warming! When I came home from school I joined my mother in our garden and I ate this year's first out-door ice cream! It feels like a great achievement, how pathetic that may be.

The wind was a little chilly, so I had to sit with a duvet around me. The sun shone so brightly that I couldn't read even with my sun glasses on but then I pulled my scarf-bow down over the shades and that did it!

Yesterday I went to Ariellah's place and I borrowed her Star Trek book. I've come a long way already!

Just three shirts I bought for 10 DKK each. : D

Easter is all about the candy

I actually thought that I wasn't going to get any Easter chocolate this year, me being older now and all that. But I got a whole lot! And I ate almost all of it in two days.... Unhealthy much? But oh well, nothing I'll die off.

The big rabbit was from my grandparents, the yellow egg (was filled with choco) from my Uncle and Aunt, the plants from my mother's friend and the paper flowers + silver egg from my parents.

The eggs from the siler egg have different stuff inside them. Some even have caramel! I don't like a lot of things, so I've opened them up and seen what's inside every time. But that was actually really fun!

I saw almost all of my family this Easter and that was very nice. Also because there wasn't any family fights like usual ! Very nice indeed!
