Simply me, a Swede in LA

It's so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and then don't say it.

Simpsons premieres today!

A fun night!

Yay, now I'm home after a really fun night out with a Swedish, F, and TJ from work, so much fun! Me and F started out at this vodka bar close to the beach and the YJ joined us after he finished work. I was planning on going home fairly early (around 10pm or so) but when the suggestion came up to go to another bar at 11.30, I was on it! I had so much fun! And now I juts have to worry about getting up at 7am tomorrow to go to work... *yawn*

Robot woman


I seriously did feel like something out of Star Trek when the doctor sent me home wearing this "portable EKG" with 7 sensors, a bunch of cables and a practical little monitor attached...Yaaay....

Doctor's visit

Tomorrow I'm finally going to the doctor to have my blood pressure thing checked out. I'm a little nervous but I'm sure it'll be ok (it'll be ok it'll be ok it'll be ok...)

2 years!

Yesterday was me and H's 2nd wedding anniversary! I can't believe
we've been married for 2 whole years and I still get butterflies when I think about him :) H took the day off from work and we went to the beach for a few hours.



In the evening he took me out to dinner at our favorite Italian restaurant and then we finished off at Santa Monica Pier watching the sunset and listening to an outdoor concert, so romantic (yes I'm a sucker for romance!
Aren't you?)!

The world is T-I-N-Y!


It's insane! Today at work, this Swedish-looking girl(yes, you can totally tell) comes in to try on a pair of jeans, I asked her where she was from and she said "Sweden" and after that we just started laughing and talking and it turns out she's best friend with my friend E who I had wine with when I was in Sweden a few weeks ago! We know the same people and she's from Molnlycke where I went to school! Besides everything we have in common, she actually seems like a really cool, nice girl and I really feel like I could use a little bit of home right now...

Hairspray


At a first look, it just seems like a few pictures from the NYC premiere of Hairspray (I'm so watching that ASAP), but then... look... do you see what I see? Yeah, right there in the top right corner...
Who let Katie Holmes out alone?
Where's her babysit..*hrm*..husband? Questions form:
Does he know she left the house at night?
Is she allowed to wear heels now?
Did she finally escape or is there a bunch of Scientology spy's at her tracks?

Hmmm...sneeky...

Simpsons hysteria!!!


Oh...my...god! If the Simpson family was big before, they're completely humongous right now! With just a couple of weeks left for the big opening, the yellow family is on everyone's lips and I for one, love it! First came the Kwik-E-Marts, then the official Springfield was voted on (turned out it's in Vermont of all places) and now, in a stroke of complete genius,
Harper's Bazaar are doing a spread starring Linda Evangelista guiding the Simpsons through Paris and have them meet some of the hottest designers today! I adore it!

Isn't she lovely?



Little miss Emma Watson just got prettier as the years went by, didn't she? She's even rumored to be the new Chanel muse and well, I can definitely see it!

Aaahh...

The beach was wonderful, it always amazes me how beautiful it is with all the palm trees and the perfect turquoise ocean! I was almost alone in "my spot" except for a camera team (they're always filming something or another at the beach) that also found that quiet part of the beach.

Finally sunny!

Ever since we got back from Sweden I've had 3 days off from work and they've all been kinda chilly and hazy, not exactly beach weather in other words, but today I woke up to 23 degrees and a clear blue sky! Time for Palisades beach :)

Transformers



So tonight me and H went to see Transformers. H had been watching the cartoon when he was a kid, and thus had high hopes for the movie, me on the other hand, having barely heard of Transformers except from my friends and co-workers that had seen the movie and they said it was "awesome!!!"
Well, it sucked b*lls to be quite honest! It was the cheesiest Americanized crap I've ever seen!

I can count the times I laughed on 1 hand (and that includes the times I laughed at what I thought were jokes about how they exaggerated the American patriotism, but a quick look around and I noticed a bunch of angry faces telling me it was certainly not a joke and America is awesome!) but I can't even count all the times that I rolled my eyes on both of my hands, it was ridiculous! With comments like "I would sacrifice myself to save this world" (in a robot-voice) and "You're a soldier now!" (in a time-to-save-your-country-and-be-a-military-hero-voice), I was begging for the end to come...*yuck*

Biggest craze!


I don't think anyone has missed the "I'm Not a Plastic Bag"-bag. This eco-friendly Anya Hindmarch creation is highly sought after all over the world, as cheap as it is (only $15!!!) it's completely sold out and if you're not a top celeb, it's impossible to get your hands on :(
On Ebay, the bids are climbing up to $500 and even the online guides on how to find one goes for a couple of hundred!!! So don't even bother with that...

Busy day!



Jeez, I'm so exhausted, 3 major celebs in one day is no piece of cake! First Paris and Nicky came in and shopped around for about an hour, Nicky was dressed really cute in white tank, black shorts, gladiator sandals and a huge Chanel bag. Paris had a green Fluet dress with a white blouse underneath, white pumps (the real 80's-Minnie-mouse type) and no makeup! She looked better without makeup than I would have expected...

And then, right before closing, a superblond Lindsay Lohan walks in (pretty fresh for being so soon after her 21st birthday bash), with 2 huge bodyguards and everyone had to stay and help. Needless to say, the paparazzi have been waiting outside work the entire day...

Aaahh, just another day at work!
