Back at YouTube & Vinyl Collection 2018


Hiya! Great to see you again.

I have exciting news; I've pulled myself together and started doing youtube again! (let's see how long that'll last.. haha)
So far I think it's gonna be great and I'm very excited about it. I don't think I've been this excited, to be uploading again, in a long time.

Anyways, enjoy my latest video where I go through my vinyl collection.
Hope you like it ;)

H&M Sweatshirt 3 Different Ways

Hiya,

I saw this gorgeous sweatshirt in an H&M newsletter, and as I've done with several other items that I've loved, I'm sharing it with you! Now, I've chosen to style the sweatshirt by only using other products from H&M. This post is NOT SPONSORED at all! I simply think they have a lot of great stuff at H&M at the moment - so why not style it with their own items?

Anyways, I've chosen not to do whole outfits this time, but rather the sweatshirt with different accessory combinations.
I hope you like it!

March Update 2018

Hiya,

I haven't really been inspired or optimistic for a little while now.
It's like all of my creativity has gone on vacation or something and I'm not sure how to get it back. I have multiple projects waiting for me, but I've never gotten around to continue them.

The other day, I watched a video by Dan Howell on Youtube. It's called  "Trying To Live My Truth" and it was exactly the kind of video that I needed. I know I need to turn my life around. I know I'm not living the life I want. And to be honest, I've just felt too lazy to change anything. But I know I can't continue this way, and hopefully, if I try a little bit harder on actually doing something instead of dazing all day, my creativity and energy will return.

So that's where I am in life right now.
Also trying to figure out what I want to do after summer, later this year. If I want to go to university, study abroad or something completely different. But I guess time will tell.

Thank you for understanding!
(I hope!) to see you soon

February Update: Movies, Tv series & Horoscopes

Hey guys,

Since the last update, I've started watching (and finished) the Netflix series "13 Reasons Why", Atypical and The End Of The F***ing World. They were all pretty good.
I'm the type of person who waits to start watching a series until it has ended because I hate waiting for new episodes and seasons to come out. I prefer to watch series in one go, so I don't forget what has happened in the previous season and therefore won't have to go back and rewatch some episodes or even start watching the whole series from the start again.
Though, there are exceptions with series that I just can't wait to watch.

I recently watched the movie Carrie Pilby. It is a very good movie and kinda relatable - not in the sense of having experienced the same things as Carrie (the lead role) but in not having figured out what one wants to do with one´s life.
The movie is about a 19-year-old lonely girl, named Carrie Pilby, who lives alone in her New York-apartment. She is very intelligent and has skipped several grades and went to Harvard University at 14 years-old. After graduating at 18 years old, and spending a one year break, her therapist (and friend of the family) wants her to get more out of her apartment.
The movie, based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Caren Lissner, was released in 2017 and stars Bel Powley as Carrie Pilby.
After watching the movie (now several times), I might even read the book because I think it is so good!

Another thing that I've been really into lately has been horoscopes. I don't believe that being born at a specific time contributes to who we are as people, but I do find it fun to read horoscopes even though I really don't believe in them.
Sometimes I feel like some horoscopes describe me very well and other times they don't, but I just can't help myself reading them anyway.
Last month, I saw a youtube video about how 2018 would affect Sagittarius (my zodiac sign), and I decided to "test the waters" and let the horoscope lead me through this year - and I guess we'll find out if the horoscope will be right about anything by the end of the year.
I'll link the video for the ones of you that want to check your horoscopes as well.

Also, I just don't believe that your name, looks and blood type have something to do with who you are as a person?! How crazy is it to think like that? I mean, I do believe that those factors (maybe not the blood type one) have something to do with how people treat one another, but it is not like we have to treat a person named Bob a certain way just because his name is Bob and he has a round face.

Thanks for reading and I hope I'll see you next time!

Style #2 - Embroidery & Greys

Hello again,
Today's promised post is an outfit post! I chose to work with grey colors and subtle pastels to match the light blue of the jeans (that turned out to be jeggings). I really like this outfit, and I wish that I owned it myself!
I hope you enjoy!


Get Ready With Me: Paramore Concert - (YT videos)

Hey guys,

Last year, I told you that I would be uploading a new youtube series to my
youtube channel - bullet journaling that is. Though I never uploaded it, I DID film it.
I was halfway through editing when I kinda' neglected it.. and as time went by, I thought it would be too late to do anything about it.

However, today I finally uploaded a new video to my youtube channel, and
I am excited to share it with you!

I hope that you'll enjoy it!

New Year, Fresh Start

Hey guys,

Sooo.... As you know, I couldn't keep my promise that I made last year
just before Christmas. It turned out that I had a lot more to do
between Christmas and New Year than I had anticipated... However, I am back now, and as an apology, I am giving you two posts (besides this one) today!

I hope to see you here again a lot this year!
