I'm looking through people's LJs and I'm constantly marvelled at the level of quality some people have in theirs which feels as though my own should be put to shame. I just talk about my university application anxiety and to be honest, there are more entertaining stuff to write about. Anyway, I've made a new layout.

Today I've bought some clothes. Click under the cut to see the top and cardigan (the jeans needs some folding up first - curse whoever decided that jeans should have looong legs, us short people really suffer)

See the top and cardigan I bought under here )

Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] _eyesthatstare, I hope you have a great one.

I was in town yesterday and I bought a bunch of clothes. At least a bunch if you're me. I've spent a lot of money this week (478 kr - which is approximately 57,80 USD) which is quite a lot for me. I've acquired an obsession for Chai latte which I don't know how I feel about it. I was going to go to this camp this weekend but it was cancelled and I sort of saw it as my chance to go to Chai latte detox, but now... I'm sitting around craving one and I want to shop. Badly. One would think that since we are so far away from town and I need someone to drive me, it would be solved, that my urge would be smothered, but that is not the case. I'm just annoyed over it (only a little).

I should clean up because I turned my room into a hurricane as I was trying to pack (which turned out to be unnecessary) but I'm lazy in that respect. I want to do something now. That's not cleaning.

I'm watching How I Met Your Mother now. I'm not seeing all the episodes, but some and I have to say: I LOVE BARNEY!!! He's - as he says himself - awesome and I can't help ship Barney/Robin a lot little. Ted is really cute and all but Barney is such a dork, it's awesome.

I'm back!

I decided to return from my hiatus. Not quite sure if I've got enough rest but I miss you guys and with new obsessions coming on, I just have to squee with someone.

I saw the latest Supernatural episode and DAMN, it was awesome! Is there someone on my flist that doesn't watch this show? For the first time, I hope not to get any answers to that question because everyone should. It's so... awesome beyond words. I think that the show has really developed. Season one was mostly about the legends and stuff (which was awesome), then season two came with all the emotions (it was good but imo it was a little bit much) and now season three is like a delicious mix between those two. ♥ Guess what I'm going to purchase?

To buy list:

  • Supernatural Season Three DVD

  • Criminal Minds Season One DVD

  • X-Files Season Three and Four DVD



As you can see, I've started to love a special genre of shows.

I bought some clothes yesterday from H&M, all in brown, yellow and white. 70's haha! Anyway, I'm going to go to my grandmother so that she can fold up the pants because, as always, they were too long. (Does that never happen to everyone? Seems like everyone I know have to fold up their pants) And I managed to get a hold of a long-sleeved white normal top - they're not extinct! :D I had almost lost hope.

I'm in the midst of reading The Devil Wears Prada. I know, I go from Atonement to such easily read fiction without much of a point, but there's nothing better than to read a completely mindless book about someone working in an insane industry with mention of top designers that makes me yearn for H&M (basically the only clothing store around here worth glancing at unless you want to spend thousands of swedish crowns on clothes that are rather unpractical).

I looked at what H&M will offer this spring and I'm IN LOVE!!! When I was younger, jeans jackets were my big obsession. I wore it like all the time and I so definitely need to buy one in a fitting size (haven't worn one in like... seven-eight years) and just... IT'S SO PRETTY.

What do you think of H&M:s spring/summer collection?
starsthatshine: (gossip: shopping best way to bond)
Speaking of the subject I touched upon last entry, how do you feel about using leggings as "long johns" (God I think it's my favourite new word!) and also, if you use leggings as that, when you're wearing a dress, would you use double leggings? Also, how do you feel about leg warmers? Yay or nay? I saw them at the store and thought they were cute.

I was laughed at in school (not in a bad way because I thought it was funny too) for my shopping escapades. I had been sent from HM to the most expensive underwear store in town and the other, cheaper stores like KappAhl, Lindex, Åhlens etc. I'd completely forgotten about.

Also wearing a scarf inside with a light top with a cup of tea in your hand has to be one of the most enjoyable things in the world. *beams* What are your favourite tea types? Mine have to be Russian Earl Gray and Earl Gray. Or at least, they are the ones I drink the most.
starsthatshine: (dw: this world wasn't meant for you)
I'm contemplating whether or not I want a cellphone for Christmas. I want a Nokia because they are the environment friendliest and they have comfortable buttons to press, unlike Sony Ericsson. But the problem is that I can't really find one that fit my needs. I'm not even sure I want a music mobile, but that's what I'm looking at. Also, without new clothes, I feel like crap. I need a new wardrobe.

I really might just be the pickiest person alive. Also, I'm not entirely pleased with my layout. I don't know why. Anyone feel like making one for me perhaps? I only have three days left on my paid account *sniff* and it would be nice if I ended up with a prettier layout than this.

I have issues with mobiles. More specifically music mobiles. I prefer to keep the two things separate, yet I'm looking into music mobile phones. Also, a question for those who know, if you have email on your cellphone, is it free? It probably isn't but I thought I'd check.

Do you have any cellphone recommendations?

I've been extremely occupied with school lately. I just can't seem to wind down. I'm always stressing. Always. Constantly. I don't have any homework or such for the rest of the week, yet I can't help but think about the French lesson we're going to have on Friday (I'm worried about a lesson!) and the test we're going to have next week. I. hate. it.

So therefore I haven't been able to be a good LJ friend lately, but I know you're awesome enough to understand.

*sigh*
starsthatshine: (spn: we're wasted)
Supernatural downloaded. Smallville in progress.

I'm going to my dad's so I'm gathering up everything of importance so I'll have something to do. Entertainment (shows) and work (school work, obviously). Everything almost done.

Also, I just found some great clothes on H&M. One cardigan thing for 300 (it's going to be one of the most expensive things I own, clothes-wise), one shirt for 200 in lack like fabric and one top for 200. So... 700 crowns. *groan* I'm going with my mother into town later so maybe I'll buy it. Maybe. We'll see. I need more clothes. I hate it when clothes are just... clothes, y'know? I'd like to have enough so I could have my own style.

Welcome [livejournal.com profile] swearitagain to my flist :D I hope you'll have an awesome time here :D

Have I mentioned how much I adore Josh Groban? I don't know if that's "cool" or not but... man, the dude can sing. Too bad he's only famous as "the guy who sings 'You Raise Me Up'" here. There's nothing sexier than guys who can really sing, I mean who knows the technique etc. and who sings in Italian (which is really beautiful in songs) and in English (Together with French, English is my favourite language but because French is associated with anguish I tend to not like it as much as English when I hear it, also I understand English better so that might be it).

Also, he's kinda cute.

Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] taskiira! :D

It's that time of year again...

Clothes I desperately want )

That is just a small bit.
starsthatshine: (heroes: laughing claire)
I did what I shouldn't do. I went to check online at H&M's clothing store. And now I'm in a need to buy something. A polo sweater, I want to buy. And a scarf. But the thing is that I'm not getting my study contribution money from my mother and even though I spent a lot of time working this summer it feels like I can't spend the money. I know exactly what I want though. I want a grey polo sweater like this:

Cut for the things I want, two things )

And that scarf thing is absolutely adorable.

*sigh* If only I could trust the fact that I would get money every month as I'm promised.
starsthatshine: (skins - see me)
Some clothes are just too pretty and it makes me cry. Specifically, this site makes me cry. Some clothes there are too pretty for words. Do you have an online shop that you LOVE? Feel like giving me some links? I love looking at the different things that Internet sites offer. I'd like to pretend I'm Paris Hilton (but with a good reputation) so I can buy all the things I want.

Speaking of imagining. I've started writing my original story. I'm not sure if anyone has heard about it here on LiveJournal... Have you? Anyway, I was wondering if anyone would like to read it once it's done (no half-finished things here, no no, I am a new woman... er, teenager... woman... ish).

I saw Beck: Enslingen today. All you Swedes know about the show, of course. And it's decent. The acting (especially from Mikael Persbrandt ♥) is awesome (at least concerning MP, Per Haber I cannot vouch for since I don't really care about him. Sad but true.) Sometimes I think that Peter Stormare, Mikael Persbrandt and Stellan Skarsgård should all three do a movie together. Stellan and Peter are obviously friends but I can't help but contemplate how and if, Mikael would/gets along with the other two... Would be kind of awesome, wouldn't it? Three of Sweden's notable actors, all together in one movie... *dreams*

Anyway... Here's a little quote from that movie that I kind of loved (except the terms that they use to mention homosexuals):
Gunvald: Jag känner till en trevlig liten bögklubb som är populär bland poliser (sträcker ut armen) Hänger du med?
Wersén: .... Ja, varför inte?
(de båda går iväg, skattandes lite - om jag minns rätt - i armkrok)


Translation-ish:
Gunvald: I know this nice little gay bar that's popular among cops (reaches out his arm) Are you coming?
Wersén: ... Yeah, why not?
(they walk away together, laughing a bit - if I remember correctly - walking out arm in arm (that's so not the right expression, is it? :P *headdesk*))

I'm using this icon again because for some reason, I'm obsessed with it. I just love writing entries with this as my icon. ♥

Words cannot express how tempted I am when I see titles such as 'The Deathly Hallows spoilery entry' and I know that all the information lies underneath a simple LJ-cut and all I have to do is to click it in order to find out what happens. It's a torment, a sweet torment. I definitely understand why some people have gone into hiatus mode while reading the book (while it's something I could never do myself). With one simple click, I can finally know if I'm gonna be sending JKR hatemail and if she's gonna make Harry/Ginny destined to be together (hearing Stephen Fry read the Ginny/Harry moments in HBP just reminded me what I have against that ship). I wish I could like it though. Also, I'm so very anxious about Snape, is he good? Is he evil? Before, I always thought it was obvious that he was a good guy, but it doesn't seem like a clean-cut case because there's at least some things that speaks for Snape being evil. *ponders*

I was in town and I bought these things:

Purchases )

I'm gonna do a photo with me actually in the clothes some day, but I'm too hungry to do it now :P
starsthatshine: (supernatural - dean demands bullshit)
I just finished Life on Mars and I have one question:

What the fuck?!

I mean, I always thought that I understood what was going on, and I think I still do but... man, it's twisted. thoughts )

Welcome [livejournal.com profile] comiskey to my flist :D I hope you'll have an awesome time :D

I suddenly felt like doing a Life on Mars/Doctor Who crossover *grins madly* Rose/Sam unite :D Keepin' it in the family and all ;) For those who don't know; their last names are both Tyler, which I somehow find amusing even though it's really ridiculous.

Seriously, I didn't realize how deep Life on Mars had me until now when I can't stop bloody thinking about it (again, I'm adapting Gene's wonderful vocabulary, I don't usually use words like this lol). I need more british shows to watch. All the shows I've watched are quality stuff, or at least quality entertainment. Doctor Who, Skins, Life on Mars, Torchwood (okay, it might be a bit... off but it's still good :P).

Speaking of shows, I tried to watch Hidden Palms but it's just this teenage drama type A. You've got the Marissa character (or Peyton character if you speak One Tree Hill), you've got the Ryan character (Lucas), the Seth character (Mouth), the Lindsay character (Brooke), the Anna character (Brian Greenberg's character's ex) etc. etc. and it makes it sort of predictable. Also, I hate TV that has perfect people on it. People who look perfect tends to have gotten the part based on their talent, maybe, but at least 50% goes into whether or not they are fit for the part, look-wise, which in my opinion is rather messed up, but that's TV these days...

Anyway, Hidden Palms, not a big hit.

Traveler though - FAN-FRICKIN' AMAZING!!!! If you haven't started watching this show, you're seriously missing out. I love it so bad. The actors are fantastic and the plot is actually intriguing. Let me just ask you this: Who is Will Traveler? (besides the obvious answer, Aaron Stanford *g*). Best show on right now.

I've changed my payment plan (or whatever you're supposed to call it) on my cellphone. Before I had Telia Refill (which any living person in Sweden knows costs a fortune and a half) but now I'm changing to Parlino (I got attacked by a salesman at ICA and then well... it sounded smart but it might end up costing me a lot more than what I have now because I rarely use my cellphone). Feel kinda bad about it, now after coming home and well... have time to think and looked up a couple of stuff that the salesman said that was incorrect. I hate the fact that you have to pay 99 SEK every month to keep that payment plan. Sure it's free to Telia, Tele3Conviq, Halebop and all those but... *headdesk* I rarely use 99 SEK in two months as it is now but then again, I might be rarely using my cellphone because it's such a high price now.

Not that it would make much difference. Well, the guy at the store said I could throw away the card if I wanted. Might do that when it's time to pay or something I suppose.

I was at H&M today (I had a weak moment, I had to shop something after my insanity yesterday *g*) and I found two tops. One of them I'm not sure about. Yellow sort of party top, but the other was this white halterneck that was extremely pretty, or at least it looked pretty on me. H&M doesn't exactly have pretty clothes. Or well, some, but in general things that are there are... well, I was about to use Gene's vocabulary again and say shit but that's not really fair considering H&M is Swedish in origin (lol) and well... they do have nice stuff on occasion.

However, I want to find a nice bag to have for school next year. Which they don't got so I have to go on a "city-wide search" next time I'm in town.

I want to buy a digital camera and rant about the things I see in stores... or rather, I just want a digital camera. *nods* I wanna take pictures and I want a video camera so I can make video clips and stuff. It would be hilarious *dreams*

Posted a new Micah/Molly story, along with a header if you want it, here if you haven't seen it already. Or you will have if you keep walking through your flist, I donno.

Now I've babbled enough. I'll go to bed now. Need to get my sleeping pattern in order.
starsthatshine: (skins - listen to the echoes)
Instead of being creative, social and everything else, I've been glancing at online shopping. And I found some goooorgeous stuff. Which is what I'm going to show you now.

Clothes I like - image heavy )

Of course, some things were prettier than others but still...What do you think? Anything there that would live in your wardrobe or anything that would be banished from it?

Also, welcome [livejournal.com profile] rain_dances, [livejournal.com profile] tori100186 and [livejournal.com profile] damedbx to my flist :D I hope you'll have a great time here
starsthatshine: (supernatural - where are you now)
I saw the lastest two Supernatural episodes, Hollywood Babylon and Folsom Prison Blues and I have a question:

- In 2x19, the clips used in the recap - from what episode is it? I really can't remember watching that scene.

I was in the city today and I saw a bunch of stuff I wanted. A tunic which I could basically wear as a dress (I have short legs) and it was sort of Jane Austen movies-like, which I adored (I love this new fashion that the waistline goes somewhere around the chest and the rest just sort of fall down - it looks like maternity clothes but I adore it). And then a simple red dress that is just adorable. Again, very simple but very elegant. What's funny is that I usually loathe dresses and can't for the life of me look good in them but I adored that one. I also saw a pair of shoes I want, and again, it's rare that I find nice shoes that fit me but I managed to get a few pairs that I could walk in that isn't tattered Converse knock-offs :P Which is what I'm wearing now. I need other shoes. Like bad.

I just generally love the fashion that's going on. I blame the trend that's going on now (really, everyone can pull of that look ;)) and well, Ugly Betty and Marie Antionette (spelled that wrong but whatevs :P) which makes fashion fun. Wouldn't exactly call myself an expert though. I'm closer to a Betty than an Amanda - really. :P

New layout!! [livejournal.com profile] aliasagent [livejournal.com profile] aliasagent [livejournal.com profile] aliasagent [livejournal.com profile] aliasagent Actually fandom free... Hmm...

I changed back to my Anna Paquin mood theme. Supernatural is great and all but I'm feeling girly, and therefore I need girlie-ness. Besides, in my opinion there was too much Sam and too little Dean ;) (is there any Dean only mood theme? In a sort of small size, I'd love to have it)

Bought a lot of things but perhaps the most interesting would be an Uncanny X-Men collection issue thing with issues *picks it up to check* #410-415. I also found Spiderman and this issue that seems filled with Harry/Peter goodness that I might just buy. Seriously, comics own my life. I'm sad though that I didn't find any Superman. I'm interested in those comics as well.

I love being a comic geek :D

Also, I'm thinking about pulling a sex change. *LOL* I hate being a girl. I hate make up, I hate having to look perfect and I'm sick of messy hair. But I'll try to start taking care of it. Also, homeless seems like an interesting prospect for me. Then I wouldn't have any room to clean. I can clean till judgement day and it will still never be completely clean because apparently my room is a dump for things that people have no idea where to put or clothes that have been newly washed. GRRR. I'M SENDING WOLVERINE ON YOUR ARSE!

Oh, and that last last bit was directed at my mom ^^

Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] bachicka! I hope you'll have an awesome birthday.

(ranting - dissing myself - warning)
My fashion interest has returned to me with a venegeance (probably isn't the correct spelling but whatever). It has to do something with this wonderful autumn fashion that is going around but it's also making me slightly depressed. My legs are too short for me to swear most things, I look hideous (I mean like most of the time seriously, trust me. Hair is a mess, never learned make-up so I don't wear it). Also my figure sucks. Small chest, hips/tighs bigger than Europe (okay, might not be entirely true but for me they are huge - everyone else has much tinner tighs. My tighs reminds me of Mariah Carey's. Euughhh) and my stomach makes me look pregnant (I need to work out, I remember when I used to work out and I got a stomach that was sort of acceptable, I want it back). Okay, I might not look pregnant but I think it's the stomach (you know the actual stomach, not the area people call the stomach, but the actual stomach inside of you) that pokes out or something. I hate it. I want a defined waist.

I want to be in a size 6 (depending on the clothes, I am a size 6) and not a size 8. In US mesures a size 6 is a 4 and a size 8 is 6. In Sweden it's the mesurements are 34 and 36. I might just be picky but I just... guh, I'm having a girly phase. I want to be 5'25" and not 5'0". I wanna be pretty for a change.

Again, today I'm extremely girly but it seems as if my clothes obsession might go hand and hand with my emo girly rants about my apperance. I suppose I've been looking too much on ads and stuff where people are tall and have like the biggest stomach area in the world that makes every piece of clothing looks gorgeous on them.

Shopping list for tomorrow:
Shoes
Tops
Training clothes
Socks
Underwear
Hair stuff
Cardigans

There's this make up store in the city called The Make Up Store where they can apply make up on you and give you make up worth for like 200 SEK for 200 SEK and I probably need to go there but I've heard some very nasty stuff about that place. Or rather, I've only heard one thing about that place and that was that an employee were completely trashing someone there and gave them a moisterer that would make their skin less dry and less filled with pimples but it turned out it did just the opposite.

I hate being not girly and know these stuff. Seriously. I despise it. I don't like the way I look with make up and I hate the way I look without. I've only looked pretty once and then it wasn't even me who did the make up.

I know people hate entries like this (at least I do) but... man, I need to vent. And I need a gym card.... *goes to my Sugarmamma AKA my mother*
