Hardcore Geek


I decided to go the the 2nd GeekCore mostly because Emma and Morten came to stay overnight with me. And then Julie was looking for PARTY CREW members and Morten and I jumped on board to get free access to the con and have a party behind the bar!

I finally found time to make my flower crown... Wanted one I can wear for lots of outfits! This made me come later than my peers, but I still had time to play a bit of video games with the dear Aalborg people.


The opening ceremony was really great! Had some pretty official speeches and Jakob Stegelmann as Guest of honour had a very nice small introduction!


Morten and I had a couple of bartending hours each night. Friday we had the opening slot. So not very many people were at UnderWerket - but we had fun nonetheless!




We caught the last of the Press Play On Tape concert and also saw the beginning of Allan's talkshow with Jakob about nerd culture in Denmark through the years since the 70s. It was so odd to see him in real life - on telly he's explained movies, games and comics to me all through my childhood.


I kind of had magic hair this weekend - it was sort of pretty no matter how I styled it!


Goooood moooRRRning!
We changed at the con Saturday and I took some shots of Emma while we awaited the cosplay competition.


Because we came so early we had front-row seats haha! 


Peter joined me as Frozone! He told me at the Villains 'n' Hero party some weeks ago and I basically flipped up. It was so fun to have some photos with him - Emma was such a doll to return the favour.



Hanging outttt.


Mmmhm that Pocahontas. And I hung out a lot with Pernille in the afternoon - it was super chill and nice.


I got free dinner at Werket and after partying for a few hours we had a shift yet again. It was more busy and we sold out of a lot of beverages. So fun !


Just as we finished up they started playing a bunch of Disney songs and the dear drunken people went slightly crazy. It was a great party.
Sunday I had planned to wear cosplay again but decided to have a casual day instead.


Relaxing times without anything really happening. It was a nice con, but slightly uneventful.


 Josephine showed me these nice girls selling home-made Potter goods and I took home a Felix Felicis. It's been a while since I've humoured the HP-nerd in me with a purchase like that.

Soaring sci-fi academics


 This semester at uni is very different. We almost don't read any acedemic texts and all our hand-ins are websites or films. So it's a very practical term! Which basically means LOTS of hours spent with my production group.
These were taken in the process of our fiction film preparations - writing, storyboarding, location scouting and getting to know each other better.


Mmmmhm cake with the Wup Wup crew.

I went to a screening of the Star Wars REBELS TV-special a few weeks before it premiered on Disney XD.


A thing to know about me: I have the biggest lady-crush on Amidala/Padme. I've idolized her for as long as I can remember - I used to draw that red royal dress over and over and over... So! Make-up! And I'm sad to report that I didn't even have to apply some kind of pale foundation... naturally pastry white y'know!


Cutie colleagues and pretty great decorations in-theatre!


They had Stormtroopers and nice things.... but who cares when these cutiepies were walking around all dressed up! I especially lost it at the Jawa girl. 


 After long days of production for uni... nothing lifts my spirits as a beautiful sunset and maybe a tiny piece of sugary goods. Or some frozen products (be it ice cream or work-perk dolls).


They might go to a child somewhere sometime in the future, but for now... On top of that shelf they will stay.


And last BUT CERTAINLY NOT LEAST I went with my family in a helicopter. Yup. So that happened. It was super fun to see Copenhagen from above - noticing all the places I've lived, gone to school, worked, had memories... Copenhagen is really small though hah! It didn't take long to see it all! The weather was absolute perfect - couldn't have been better with the little amount of wind and the sun lit up our beautiful city.
