Intolerably cute

Hold your breath and count to ten...

I'm pretty bad with updating theese days, I'm not feeling at ease with anything latley, I'm feeling physicaly ill and worn out to the point that I get sick almost daily and I'm not really happy with my living situation. I've been looking at, and thinking about actually buying, an apartment in another, larger, city as to have closer to friends and family and also get more job opportunitys or maybe even go back to school. However I'm sort of caught in a catch 22, if I want to leave my job and move I won't get the loan and if I don't quit my job I can't really move. I guess I could commute since it's about an houer away with the train but my work schedule is so irregular that I doubt it would be possible. The short of it is that I'm stuck, I guess there are things I could do,other opptions, but I don't feel like there is a way to improvment in the mix. I wish my life could feel less like a test of my endurance.

Gaga gloss

I might not be one of Gaga's "little monster", but this lipgloss is just the perfectly baby Barbie pink that she might just win me over.

Shoegasm

I found them, the perfect pair of shoes that I saw on that gorgeous Girls of town snap! I love the two tone versions and, of course, they're all sold out... I guess it's back to the auctions!

Great quake

Both my facebook and twitter accounts are overflowing with everybodys updates on the earthquake in Japan, I'm glad to see that my friends and extended family are alright in Tokyo (I had to leave work and call around to make sure), but still the consequenses are devastating. I remember how scared I was everytime we had a quake when I lived there, taking cover under a table and not knowing what to do, and I only ever experienced smaler ones. I feel for everyone affected, natural disasters have never been a threat as I live in Sweden and watching the news reports on this it's something I'm really thankfull for.

New camera

Finaly! I've wanted a newcamera ever since I lost mine, wich I worked really hard on to deco, on the plane home from Tokyo. I've had one on loan from my father ever since, he won it through a crossword puzzle contest in the newspaper so it wasn't too good. That's one of the reasons I've been sort of bad with picture posts for quite some time now.
I orignialy wanted to buy the same model I had in Japan since I know that model was really good and it isn't too pricy now either since it's almost a year old. However I decided on the newer model, not because it can shoot in HD, but because it comes in a much cuter shade of pink. The front surface is really flat and neat so it would be perfect to do deco on but I think it's really cute as it is so I don't think I'll touch it.

Showtime

It's been a long time since my last post! I guess I've been so absorbed by work latley that the days just went by without me noticing. I was however fortunate enough to have the time over to watch some great films wich I would like to recomend!
As chance would have it, they both tell stories about the life of on stage entertainers.

Some week ago I finaly got to watch l'illusioniste, I've been really exited about it ever since I saw the first trailers for it. It's directed by Sylvain Chomet, who also directed one of my absolute favourite movies, Les triplettes de Belleville.
I will never get tiered of the animation in theese movies, it's so beautifuly detailed, quirky and smooth (fans of the Layton school of animation are sure to enjoy). The illusionist is not all as fun as the tripplet from Belleville was since the mood is quite melancolic but I would say it's just as good and definetley wort a watch.

The next film I had a look at was The Black Swan, there's been a lot of buzz around this movie so I would be suprised if there is anyone out there who haven't seen it yet, but if you by any chance missed it I would recomend you to get to the theatre while it's still playing. I saw it first on my computer and the other day in theatre and I will say it's always worth the extra money to se a film this visualy stunning on the big screen. I had much longer, rant filled, enteries for both of theese movies planned but after thinking about it for a couple of days I just don't feel like nitpicking and whining anymore. I don't want to ruin it! It's been such a long time ago since I saw something new, original and on top of that really, really good so I'll just leave you with my warmest recomendations and hope you'll enjoy them as much as I did.
