This is my entry for a photo contest at the blogg DinÅsikt.

Reqirement: A photo that expresses an opinion.

This photoshop project of mine is what came to mind. It's definitely not my best photoshop job, it's far from perfect aesthetically... but I just wanted to contribute to the contest! Wish me luck!

This is my entry to a photo competition over at Fannyelina,
in cooperation with Bloglovin and Guldfynd.

The requirements are, it needs to be an emotional picture featuring jewellery.

This one is very emotional to me because of the memories. The necklace is my favourite, a simple wooden one that my love gave me the first time we met, topped off with the engagement ring that eventually followed. <3

I keep having really weird, unreal dreams. Tonight the scene was England, where me and Allen were living in some apartment. Suddenly we heard a noise at the door, and I went to make sure it was still locked and secure. It wasn't, there was some sort of security block attached to the door that made it impossible to lock. I freaked, and then spotted a big police team outside, ready to arrest me. I freaked more. They said I was suspected of cheating at an exam, which gave me my grade in Maths B and allowed me into university (as if that was a massive crime, requiring about five police officers). I was very upset cause I knew I hadn't cheated, but they said I had been allowed to use a laptop during the test, and there was no way I could have scored so high without getting help from somewhere.

Wtf! It's not like I scored that high in maths anyway. Is this my alter ego dreaming for me? Anyway, I had to prove I could get the same score without cheating, so I had to do the test again. And then it turned into them dreams where it's like you want to run from something but can't get anywhere, you know? Except I had to do the test, but things kept stopping me. The pen broke, there was people around talking really loud so I couldn't concentrate. When I had finished about three assignments, I realised I had completely misunderstood them and had to restart.

Luckily I woke up before the police got to throw me in jail or anything.

Low quality cell phone picture, just to document some paper birds I made today. Cut out with scissors from folded white A4 sheets.

Last night we watched the first semi final for Eurovision Song Contest, where 10 countries moved on to the final. It was more fun than I thought, there was some decent songs and the right ones got through. It would have been nice if Finland had made it, but the awesomeness of Greece made up for it. :)

We had this movie recommended to us, but Teeth mostly freaked me out. Here's yet another example of what happens to young people if they don't get proper sexual education. Well, I mean, the awkwardness is. Hopefully lack of education doesn't cause people to mutate and develop teeth in their genitals, but if that ever did happen then open education could hopefully have been resolved the problem a bit better...

The main character is a popular, attractive girl who for some reason is very frigid and determined to not have sex before marriage. It turns out that living close to a nuclear power plant has caused a mutation in her holiest of regions, but she hasn't noticed anything is abnormal about this, she just goes on with her life. As the story develops and she becomes interested in this guy, she wants to stick to her promise of purity. The guy however, turns out to be a bit pushy, and his attempts to seduce her end in tragedy.

Toward the end, it just got a bit much. I just felt disgusting watching it. I'm not usually prude there's a limit to what a person can endure. I mean... gross, lol. Give it a try and watch it if you're intrigued though, it's definitely... an experience.

Entering a competition over at jpic.se with this photo, for a chance to win a wireless camera trigger. It's a long shot, but wish me luck. :)

Lol, this is how I feel talking to certain people sometimes. You know who you are! *cough*

Found the cartoon on this excellent blog. It's lucky some people still take initiative about environmental issues, I feel a bit bad about "giving up" on the subject lately. I'm a selfish, self-centered person! I could use someone villing to poke me when I'm too lazy to recycle.

Not even to mention how good the actual series is, I just love the intro. There is something so simple and intense about it. It's just a guy getting up the morning, having breakfast, getting ready and leaving, but it's like art. I don't know if it's the extreme slow-mo close ups or the music or what. When he's squeezing that orange, I can almost feel the little sprays hitting my eyes.

It really reflects what Dexter is like as a person. Innocent and proper, a clean perfectionist but with that hint of something violent, the references to blood and strength, the contained calm.

Video beauty at it's best anyway, so give it a watch if you haven't seen it. Watch the Dexter series intro here.

Spent all morning arranging my teacher blog, adding link squares to info sections at the top. Think it looks pretty nice now, and hopefully all the links are leading to the right places. Phew.
