Another post about something I don't like

Friday I went to work at a speedway field some place in the country side. I don't know what speedway is about. And I really don't think I care.

A friend asked me what speedway is, and then I googled it to find him a link. Now I know that speedway bikes have no breaks and no gear, and while at it my little search confirmed my suspicion that people who care enough about speedway to actually write about it on wikipedia are no good at writing at all. Just like the people (mainly fat old men with bad haircuts, to whom I sold beer last Friday at the speedway thing) were no good at conversing.
Seriously. I was wearing my mint green nail polish that I love more than any other nail polish in the world. And this old grumpy man comes up to me and wants to buy a beer and he's like "eh... that's quite a colour for a nail polish!" and I laughed and asked if he didn't think it was a pretty colour and then he goes "no, not really. I'm not sure I like it." AS IF I FREAKING CARE! Why do people like that even bother to say anything at all if they are just going to criticize something as lame as my nail polish? It's not like I would ever walk up to him and tell him that he was wearing an ugly yellow jacket. I mean, that's really non of my business, it's not like I'm ever going to see him again. And if he was just trying to small talk he could have commented on the weather (it was raining). No need to be rude.

People like that make me have days where I don't like people at all.

I know...

that I just posted two post with the same title except the ! - but there are no other words to describe it. I will not change the titles. And besides I'm tired and lazy (come on, it's Sunday night, how else am I supposed to feel?), haha!

Eurovision Song Contest!

I can't believe I actually ended up spending my Saturday night watching that show... It was just... terrible! I wish I had at least been drunk.

Eurovision Song Contest

Last night I went to dinner at some friends' place. They got married about a month ago and they seem happy and we looked at pictures and I said 'ah' and 'oooh' at the right places and meant it most of the times.
But we are so young. I've known the girl since we were infants. It just occurred to me that besides my parents, she might be the person I've seen on most days out of my entire life. For A LOT of years I saw her every single day.
And now she's married. And she seems so... married. She says things that you expect a married woman to say. She warns you about not touching the thing she just took out of the own because it will be very, very hot. She could recite the wedding menu exactly the way it had been printed. And she was just so happy about it.
Now, I really do think they love each other and I'm happy for them and all that, but this whole wedding thingy scares the crap out of me. Is this what we aim for? Do I really want to find true love if it means I'm going to be all practical and memorize strange food with weird names that I'm never ever going to eat again. Will I some day actually want to wear a white dress?

Argh! I don't know... I don't think being married is for everybody. I hope there are other kinds of true love - maybe even a kind that won't someday turn me into my mother.

(sorry mom)

Long time no see

I was going to visit some friends when I decided to go to a music festival and suddenly I'd been away for like nine days...

Now I'm back at my parent's house and I have to admit that it's quite a turn off. I mean, I was on the train on my way back and the sun was shining and I read some free newspaper and it said that this music festival was coming up and I started visualising how me+sunshine+music+beer=LOVE. There was no way I could just go home. So I didn't. I went to concerts, I enjoyed the sunshine, I drank beer, and then I went home.

Buuut... being home when it's cloudy and windy isn't any fun, and to make matters worse I've somehow developed a cold during the last four hours.

I've been cyber stalking some people I've met these last few days (which is always a wonderful way to kill time) and now I'll watch lame youtube videos and eat ice cream. Gosh! how I love ice cream. Some day I'll write a song about my favourite foods. Hopefully it's going to make me ridiculously rich and then I'll buy some more ice cream.

Tea

Today is a ridiculously cold day, best spend indoor drinking tea of my mother's new cups.

If you look really really closely at upper right part of the tea you'll be able to see the reflection of my glasses :)

I wonder where the spring went? Right now it feels like fall... AND IT MAKES IT REALLY HARD TO FEEL ENTHUSTIASTIC ABOUT ANYTHING AT ALL! Except for of course tea. I love tea. The tea I'm drinking right now is some sort of cheap rosehip, and from what I've heard rosehip is the solution to almost anything that could be wrong with your body.
My favourite tea must be some sort of herbal tea with liquorice and mint. Nom nom.

Have a nice weekend, who ever you are...

Busy bee

Today I've baked a cake, done the dishes, written a job application... Sometimes I really don't get how people have time to already have a full time job and do all the other things you have to do, too. I'm always SO impressed with the way some people just make everything come together and then they make it seem like nothing at all. My five month delayed New Years Resolution must be: To do more with my days. Starting tomorrow. Today I'll just dance around in my living room and eat cake :)

Grizzly Man

Yikes! What a crazy documentary!

A cry for help

Dear Lush Lovers

I recently bought the Fresh Farmacy facial cleanser from Lush. And I want to like it. I really do. But the thing is... it sort of won't go off. What I do is I wet my face, then I soak the soap, rub my hands and make it lather and apply it to my face and wash off. And wash and wash and wash!
And then my face is still pink.

I like pink. I think it's a nice colour and all, but this just doesn't seem right at all.

Where did I go wrong?

Love,
Nanna

Is it better

to eat an ice cream and THEN two carrots or JUST the ice cream? I know the best thing is to not eat ice cream at all, but since I'm an ice cream addict I sort of can't help myself :)

Just wondering...

Oh, and I ate it all. That's just how I roll, haha!

Listening to She&Him vol 2. I would like to be Zooey Deschanel. She's so pretty and cool and wonderful.

And on a different note: I just started a travel blog. Go check it out http://wheninplace.blogspot.com/

My parents are out looking at windmills...

Down down down

I feel rather uncheerful tonight. It might just be the usual feeling of coming back after a trip. But I really do hope tomorrow will be better. There are things I need to do, places to be, people to hug.

Golden nails

For quite some time now I have been searching for a not glittery golden nailpolish.
But let me just start by telling you a different story:
I went to NYC. Then I went to Brooklyn to check out some 2nd hand shops. I walked through Williamsburg and all those very Jewish Jews scared the hell out of me. Then I accidentially found Target which was good because I wanted to see the Zac Posen collection that was coming out the following day.
Going through the dresses and jackets and skirts took me about 7 minutes (give or take). Walking through the rest of Target took me an hour.
And theeen... I found a not glittery golden nailpolish! Tadaah! However... It was a $9 Sally Hansen click-and-go pen thingy. I was rather sceptic but my eagerness to have golden nails made me buy it.
Am I glad that I did?
Yes.
Will I buy another 'nail polish in a pen' if I can get the same colour in regular nail polish form?
No.
The brush is too big and it's quite hard to get the right amount of polish out. But I like the idea and there is no doubt that this golden colour is going to look absolutely amazing when(if) I get a bit of a tan and wear light summer dresses.
And who knows, maybe I just need to practice :D
