Jag har gått med i en tävling där man kan vinna ett presentkort på Romwe. Tjejen som har tävlingen har en superfin blogg på http://melissablogg.devote.se , gå in och kika!
My dad recently went to the US, so I asked him very kindly to buy me a pair of Converse because they are cheaper there.
I requested a pair of wine-red, high top converse. A week later my dad returned and he gave me the shoebox so very proudly. When I opened it, the shoes were pink! That’s how it goes when you ask your color-blind dad. Haha! But acually, I really like them!
Last weekend I felt really inspired by some photos of henna-tattoos that I saw. I surprised even myself when I grabbed a pencil and started drawing. And what surprised me even more is that I actually became happy with the result!
A school assignment I did a couple of weeks ago. The letter I chose was supposed to describe me. So I chose M which stands steady on the ground, but have both “ups and downs”.
I thought I’d do a music/outfit post!
The last couple of days it has been christmas, and it actually turned out pretty okay. Still not my favourite part of the day, but hey, at least there were some nice presents Hope you all had a nice christmas!
So now to the music part, I HAVE to recomend this great band, Dirty Pretty Things. The former Libertines singer/guitarist Carl Barât started the band after The Libertines broke up. Dirty Pretty Things is history now aswell. But they sure did make some good music!
So listen to the songs: Gin & Milk Blood Thirsty Bastards
So, it’s this time a year again. And after playing every sad song I know and crying until I couldn’t breathe, I must confess that I’m not too excited about christmas. This year, my family simply “didn’t have time” for christmas. No gingerbreads, no christmascards and no fixing the tree. It is worse than other years, but even though we haven’t done anything at all, everyone is still stressed and irritated.
I can’t stand it. Now I’m even looking forward to the christmas food (!).
I feel like it was my responsibility today to enlighten you all about my muscial hero I’ve loved since I saw him live this summer. That, my dear friends, would be Brian Fallon, leadsinger in The Gaslight Anthem and The Horrible Crowes.
Except from all the great songs on their album “The 59th Sound” I’ve just discoverd two amazing covers that I am obsessing over.
Brian Fallon, covering Teenage Dream with Katy Perry and Baba O’Riley with the Who.
Baba O’Riley is a great song to beguin with, and he managed to do it even better. And Teenage Dream, well, just say he gave the hopeless pop-song a soul and a meaning.
