Shopping in Skive :D
I went to see Jeanette today! I was up waaay early (for me!) and took a bus to town, where I had to change in to another one that would take me to Skive where she lives. But something came up so I needed to take a bus in a detour to Viborg and then one to Skive -.- So when I finally ended up in Skive, I was pretty exhausted. No sleep and a crappy long bustrip x_x BUT; I was so happy to see her!
I missed her so much, it's been almost a year since I saw her at the Tokio Hotel concert in Copenhagen March 1st. O_O
Then we went to a shoe shop in town where she had spotted these boots that I just HAD to get:
This is her pic from when she got them in November ^.^
Doing hair and playing Trivial. :D
My father youngest sister and I were the only guests but actually that was really nice. We had a lot of great food and afterwards we played my Trivial Persuit the Disney version. Mille won, but I did okay :D
It was really nice, I love spending that kind of quality time with friends and family, the longer that kind of game is the better ^.^
For once we actually all had a great time with no drama and just spent time together. The kids had fun, we all did. I can't remember when I last had so much fun with my family for en entire night ö
After Kath and daddy went home Mille and I went to visit our friend, Janni. Mille had to dye her hair and I just kind of went along xD We had a really nice time, did the hair and had some Christmas candy and cookies :D
I had a really nice time last night, I'm so happy I went even though it meant I didn't get any sleep ö

Christmas 2010 :D
Finally the 24th came and this year my dad, sister Kathleen and I celebrated it with my aunt, uncle and 2 cousins in their summer house a few km from where we live :D
The people who follow my twitter will perhaps know that I’ve been in a somewhat amputated Christmas mood this year; mainly because my parents split up and their divorce came through yesterday. And I was really worried about how dad would take it and if he would break down.
On top of that my sister Kathleen left her fiancée this month. Her and her daughter, Alberte are now living with daddy. Alberte was to spend Christmas with her father and his family so Kath was under the impression that Christmas was just something that we needed to get over with.
AND to top it all off, my oldest sister Camilla was not supposed to spend Christmas with us. For the first time ever I wasn’t going to spend Christmas Eve with her and the kids.
But it was actually a really nice night. I was very pleasantly surprised, when we got there and the tree was standing there in the middle of the room, so beautiful and I saw all the presents already under it. :D
We sat down and had some soda and candy while waiting for auntie to finish dinner.
Daddy was so sweet he kept asking if there wasn’t anything he could do to help out. I think he was confused with what to do with himself, because normally he’s the one cooking the dinner :p
Dinner got ready and it tasted delicious! It was so good, but I couldn’t eat much unfortunately. We laughed a lot and joked around while I waited for the others to finish up.
After clearing up the table, we sang some Christmas songs and laughed our way through half, because we didn’t remember the lyrics xD
Then it was present time. There were huge presents, small present and presents with no forms. It was insane, but I loved that there were so many different sizes. I even got 4 more than I expected to get!
Everyone seemed to have a great night and even though I felt like we were done early, I had a wonderful time :D Daddy had a great time, I didn’t get in to a fight with sis and we all genuinely had a blast, really I couldn’t have asked for much more. ^.^
We drove home at about 11.30am and when I got home, I was so beat. But I think that was because I had psyched myself out so bad.
All in all an amazing night, one I’ll remember and I’m really happy we went to celebrate it with them :D
Ps: I’ll post pictures of my presents in a little while :D
The Belated Birthday Present from Kath
I just wanted to say that I got told what I'm getting from my sister as my birthday present. She failed to give me something for my actual birthday a week ago and yesterday she remembered and told me what she intend to get for me.
But I'm not complaining :D
Jo Rowling in Denmark!
I'm just going to post it like I wrote it because I'm too lazy to change it xD
Here goes:
Hello everyone! I am back from a lot of weeks of silence! Honestly I don’t have anything clever to say to excuse it, so I am not going to dwell more on that. There are more important things to talk about :D
I MET JO ROWLING TODAY!! DD:
First of all, I need to talk about how I got there. It was in Odense, which means I had to take the train at 5 am >.< Which of course resulted in me not sleeping at all.
The whole thing started to get me nervous because I needed to get money and no banks opened before 5 am. So I needed to hurry like hell to make it to the train leaving Aalborg at 5.17. So I did, and found out my pack of fags were gone -.-
After suffering through 3 hours in a train with no air or fags I finally stepped off in Odense. It’s been about 2 years since I was in Odense last time. Back when I was just dumped by the person I thought was the love of my life.
Anyway, to begin with both Mia Malene and I were totally paranoid expecting our exes to show up at any minute. But of course neither did.
We found the building where Jo was supposed to receive the H.C Andersen literature award and got in line. Not very long after that, the doors opened and we quickly found our seats in the concert-room where we waited for the program to start.
The Odense Symphony Orchestra played two pieces, one of them being the most famous piece from the Harry Potter movies, Hedwig’s Theme ^^ It was beautiful, I get goosebumbs just thinking about it!
After two speeches, the new Princess of Denmark, Princess Marie, presented the award to Jo. It was such a surreal moment to hear everyone in the room yell and give her a standing ovation just for entering the room! When she was there, I couldn’t take my eyes off her, I couldn’t believe she was right down there!
During her acceptance speech, my camera died because I forgot to charge the batteries -.- Luckily MM had hers with her too and she snapped a lot of great photos :D
When she was done with her speech we all gave her a standing ovation again and I could tell she was touched. I don’t think she expected a reaction like that at all!
After the ‘show’ we waited outside for her to come out and when she did, a few lucky people got their books signed before she got into a car and left for the city hall. She must have made another stop between those two, because we ran all the way up there and we still had to wait for a long time before she showed up.
By then I had secured myself a great spot and even though I wasn’t in the front row, I still managed to snatch an autograph!
That just saved my day :D I still can’t believe it.
After the whole shebang, we were both completely beat. We went to McDonald’s and MM took a train home after that. I however had to walk all the way back to the city hall almost to be able to find a machine that would allow me to get money for my ticket. x_x
Then I bought my tickets and went to the platform. I am in the train still, waiting to get an internet connection again.
That’s all for now.
Baiz!
Ps: When I get home, I’m going straight to bed!
The Vampire Diaries
The main thing is; I don't love the books. I thought they'd be so much better than the show, but basically none of the cool stuff happening in the show happen in the book. At least not in the first book. I don't hate the book, but I don't love it. - Which surprised me a lot.
The main reason why I don't exactly love the books is, that Elena is very unlikable in the first book. She's really annoying to be quite honest. And she's blonde! Not that I hate blonde hair, I just hate the thought of HER as a blonde when I've watched the show for a full season and a half o.o
The idea of her being in love with Stefan is good, but it's just not.. Well, it doesn't feel real o_O I know there's a difference between book and movie, but I've read books where love feels real. Elena seems.. Shallow. Like Caroline to be honest D;
It seems very twodimentional and not very real. Such a shame because the writer is really good at using words in a very curved and beautiful way. The writer makes the sentences beautiful, which seems so weird when the story in itself is very simple and plain.
It's exciting, but not nearly as good and complicated as the show.
I'm so hooked I sit around and wait for the newest episodes to come out on this page where I watch them. I check it every day and now I'm watching the first season for the 3rd time now, it's the best present I got for my birthday :D
Hugs & kisses
More pics :D
Birthday!
Hello!
Two days ago, I turned 23. It’s insane and I’m so old -.-
The day started out with me getting a few wishes from people on twitter. Then I got a text from Nettøh saying congrats and telling me to get on her stickam. There she sang Happy Birthday for me and I felt good ^.^ Made me feel special!
I woke up in the morning for the first time alone on my birthday which was weird. No one sang for me when I woke up and no one wished me happy birthday in person. Now I sound all emo o.o
When I stepped outside, was so surprised to see all the snow that came down during the night. It was awesome! The only thing not awesome was the cold. It was snowing like mad and it was so windy. But my birthday was white and that was all I wanted :D
I went to my sister and my niece and nephew were all smiles. I got to unwrap two presents there:
Then we drove in to town and met with mum and her boyfriend. We went and got something to eat and then my mum suddenly pulled out three presents. I didn’t expect that, only one present! But three ö
Here’s what I got:
Then we got home and I stayed with them to watch the semis of the handball. Denmark lost big time, but it was to a better team I guess.
After the matches, I went to see daddy and my youngest sister. She was going out like my other sister so I didn’t get a present from her. But daddy gave me some money as a present and then drove me downtown for me to grocery shop for the money.
He drove me home to spend the rest of the night alone: So great, both sisters going out, daddy in a horrible mood and me alone watching TV on my birthday. But it was alright, I wasn’t at all in the mood for partying anyway.
Not to be all emo and negative, so I’m going to stop ranting and say that I’m really happy about the presents I got, most especially The Vampire Diaries Season 1! I’m so in love with it, I was so happy when I unwrapped it. I just hugged my mother and thanked her a million times! :D
Over and out
Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows ~ Part 1 [Belated review]
As promised, a more detailed review – IF YOU DON’T WANT SPOILERS, DON’T READ!!
I went to see it at midnight this Wednesday and as I said before, I love it. That day I was really upset because I thought I wasn’t going to watch it anyway. I don’t have any money, but my father was so kind, he offered to lend me the money so I went with my brother in law, Brian ^.^
That’s the first time I’ve gone to the movies with someone to see the same movie at the same time, but sitting in completely different cinemas. – Well, there’s a first for everything :p
Anyway! The cinema was packed! The queue to get sodas and candy was like a mile long until right before the movie began. I literally just sat down with my stuff when the commercials were over and the movie began D:
I love the opening of this one! By far the best one, no doubt! Immediately we get the feeling of danger and seriousness. It nearly brought tears to my eyes seeing Hermione erasing her parent’s memories of her.
And I might as well add: Emma has grown up to become really gorgeous! She looks so beautiful almost no matter when the camera is on her and as the audience, I’m happy with that ^.^
The whole idea with the seven Harry’s is a brilliant one on Jo’s account and the movie accomplishes the sequence perfectly; with ease, fun, a fast pace and sadness.
I feel so sad for Harry that Hedwig dies, but he of course has enough to worry about besides that. I hate that Mad-Eye dies too, I don’t like the way he exits the movie o.o It just seems.. hurried.
Then I have to say, my favorite moment of the entire movie comes. The small moment the twins share after George is hurt. I’m a huge sucker for the read-heads and this movie is no exception!
I love the whole relationship between Ron and Hermione, I love how they made it when Ron destroys the first Horcrux, I missed him when he wasn’t there, but it seemed right for him to leave. Now I can just wait for the final part to come and tie up the knots.
There’s plenty of sadness, fear, scary places, excitement and humor in the movie :D it’s very well made and it doesn’t feel weird at all, that the trio isn’t at Hogwarts. It works, like in the book. I can’t wait for the final part!!
I will recommend people to go watch it in the cinema it’s a completely different experience. Don’t just wait until it comes out on DVD! :D
