Manic Street Preachers - Motorcycle Emptiness

Oh I do I do I do love this song. So much.

One more cup of coffee before I go...

It's interesting to have a seminar teacher that doesn't want a discussion. And of cause it's me and a guy in my class that are the only ones talking through half the lesson and arguing with the teacher. Oh I love to argue with teachers. The rebel... sigh....

Also had a coffee with Edith today. Or a couple, got to school quite too high on caffeine, it was pretty bad actually. I hate drinking too much coffee. It should be illegal. I cant help feeling a bit sick and laughing at myself for getting in this state at the same time. I should have learned by now.

And yes you are probably roling your eyes and shaking your heads and thinking "Really? On coffee? What did she really take..." And yes I feel a bit weak and stupid, but I confess here and now that I get very affected by caffeine and probably won't sleep for three days. Ok, not that bad, but close.

Note to self: one cup per day maximum!

Good night friends! X/G

Gabs the geek. Looking pretty smug...

Nanook of the North - Little guardian

This morning when I woke up Niclas broke the news that the video is at last on Youtube!
This song is by my friends Olle and Mattias aka Nanook of the North. On this particular song I am guest singing, so listen carefully... ;) The wonderful video is by Mark Pettersson Kjahart. I love it! Check it out for your selves. x/Gabrielle

Dreams...

Ok, before I forget I have to review my dream for you. I had the weirdest dream about living in a country really controlled by the government, think North Korea'ish. Like there was no internet or TV and no one knew about the outside world except for me. The dictator had his "home base" in Osaka, so I had to blow it up. The country was organized so the whole population worked at factories making trains. The dictator had control, not only over the country, but through out the world by using a secret underground train to get around. This is why the whole population worked with train manufacture. So anyhow, i had to blow up Osaka. Though it was really far away. I tried to shout out in a megaphone that I had blown up Osaka, but no one in the factory would believe me so I ended up taking the tube home from Fridhemsplan and being in a bad mood.

The scenery changed, I was on an old train from the sometime in the 50's. I was about 17 and I was a boy going to boarding school. (yeah cause these things happen in my dreams). But we had to change trains at a terminal. So we did, and then I realized I'd forgotten one of my school books on the other train. For some reason it was "Oliver Twist". It was to late to get it back though so I couldn't do much about it. So we kept going on the train. I had a really cute 50's girlfriend that i was kissing, and she was giggling. Can't remember getting to the actual boarding school. But next I realized I had been expelled for some reason. (I think it had something to do with Osaka, so maybe I blew it up after all...) I was in my room and my parents were there (except these were not my real parents, but my parents in the 50's, and i was still a school boy of 17). They were helping me pack my stuff. For some reason I only had girls clothes, but it didn't bother me thet much.

Next up I am in a shopping mall shopping for groceries for my "goodbye party" at school. I am now myself again (the year 2011, female, 22 years old). I accidentally bump into my old friend Tina. So we go shopping ingredients for my party together. The problem is we can't talk about food for some reason, so we have to guess what we are are cooking because we can't communicate. So in the end we just talk about horror literature instead.

Back at the party I am drinking cocktails and saving the swizzl sticks that are really huge and in lots of neon colours. The cocktails are really huge too. My friends are laying the table weith lots of cakes. Kerem and I decide to scare our friend Boel so we grab loads of straws and swizzle sticks and waive them around pretending to be Cthulhu. (why we do this I am not sure. But it seemed like a good idea at the time) Boel gets really scared and she is holding what she clames to be a home made chocolate cake in one hand and a birthday cake in the other. She jumps back and screams, and the cakes fly in the air. I manage to catch the chocolate one, that is not at all home made but still in wrapped in plastic from the shop where she bought it. The birthday cake on the other hand flies through the air and lands in Kerems' face.

This is where I wake up feeling kind of weird...

THE HUNGOEVR COOBKOOK

After drinking a bit to much tequila at Kattis place yesterday Niclas and I woke this morning (more afternoon...) quite hungover. We decided we had the fantastic advantage of owning The Hungoevr Coobkook that I bought for Niclas for Christmas.

After completing the test to identify our diagnosis we came to tha conclusion that Niclas had the Atomic hangover and I had the Cosmic hangover. We decided to combine the recipes from both chapters and ended up with a lemon lassie for my cosmic hangover and a potato hash with avocado and bacon (except we replaced the bacon with halloumi) for Niclas atomic hangover.


True enough the lemon lassi was perfect for me. I tend to be the "cosmic" type and prefer a light breakfast/brunch whenever I'm hungover. The potato hash was really good too though. Suddenly having a hangover isn't at all that bad but actually quite nice...

Bon appétit! (click for larger pictures) xxx /G

Home is whenever I'm with you

Inspired by Lisas blog post http://flortunn.blogg.se/2011/february/lite-mer-hemma-hos.html

I thought I'd put these pictures out. I am trying to like my apartment. But I really really want to move. These pictures make me appreciate it a bit more though.



So, you want to move in?

It's.... a geek!

So... there's this birthday part I'm invited to. It's a costume party with the theme "geek". A friend thought I should dress up as Lara Croft. But that just feels like an excuse to dress up in a slutty costume. HAHA! Besides I think I would feel quite uncomfortable wearing almost nothing. My minds just gone bland though. Suddenly the only thing I see in my mind is a pair of geekie glasses. (Got thoes!) But that won't do as a costume. It doesn't have to be a video game character, anything geekie really. I just can't think of anything.

I Need

Oh Jesus! I love this! Nostalgia!

I wish I was in New Orleans...

Today I felt completely free and in control of myself. I think it must be the sun and the twittering of birds that is doing it... I found myself walking from Stureplan to Odelplan with a smile on my face. It's all going to be good. I am impressing myself with the school work I've been doing. Just reading mainly, but I have a hard time reading non-fiction. It's getting easier and easier though. I think it is all about what you are used to reading, and I think I'm getting used to it.

I met my friend Karla today for lunch. She seems to be a busy woman. I wish we would hang out more often. Today was really good. She is leaving to go back to the states and live in New Orleans for a while. I wish she would stay. I would love to come and visit her in New Orleans, i've always wanted to go. But i know I'll never get the opportunity. I can't see myself having the money, at least not if we don't move. And also, I can't see myself having the time. Now that I attend university I feel I was a bit spoiled before having 5 breaks from school per year (sportlov, påsklov, sommarlov, höstlov, jullov), now I only have two breaks. Christmas holidays and summer holidays. And I'll probably have to work...

For some reason the Tom Waits song "Oh I wish I was in New Orleans, I can see it in my dreams..." started going round and round in my head. I wonder why...

Erase and rewind cause I've been changeing my mind...

Oh yeah it's a new year. Time for a new start I think...
