Totally Insane!!!

This is totally insane!
You’re used to see me this way, and it’s this way I like to be…It feels like the true Iva, with a lot of make up, and crazy hair. BUT I couldn’t avoid to make a picture of me how I would look like if I just was a “normal” girl.
As you know I’m a naturally redhead, and I had a lot of freckles when I was younger (and they’re still there if I’m out in the sun)

And this is the “normal” me!
OMG! (sorry for the lousy retouch, but I made this picture really quick)

My last day as a vegan.

I’ve lived as a vegan for a month now, and the betting between me and my colleague will end tomorrow.
It has been very interesting, and worthwhile month for me, but I guess I will go back to my “normal eating-standard ” tomorrow. Slowly and carefully, as I don’t know how long it takes for the stomach to get use to not eating egg, milk or meat. I don’t want it to buck…
A lot of my friends (who’s vegan) want me to continue to eat the vegan-way, but I have to little time to cook dinner and make  lunch-boxes to bring me to work for a whole week, when I’m home at 9 p.m…

Besides that I’m a bit tired of some soya-products that tastes sugar,sugar, sugar, nothing or just …weird (If you don’t cook it on your own ofc)
But I want to clarify some things. I’m not a big meat-lover, and just because this month will end, I’m not gonna go directly to the supermarket and buy me a huge steak for dinner. The truth is that it’s very rare that I’m having meat for dinner at home. If I’m eating meat it’s mostly at my parents place, or when my sister force me to eat the people in her fridge who she has slayed
I don’t find it hard to live as a vegetarian, but as a vegan I think I will miss my cottage cheese too much .

Last weekend I had my friend Erik over for visit. Oh, I just love when lovely people visit me so I can feel less alone for a couple of days <3 I had a great and cosy time together with him and all the other people I invited in for a preparty at saturday evening! Thanks to all of you! *blows kisses to*
I don’t think I have any pictures from the preparty, but I know I have a video of Erik, shaving a guys hair off! It’ll maybe be posted here if it’s okay with him

Good night sweethearts! <3

I need your help!

I will probably go to New York in July, and I need someone who can offer me a pillow and a sofa, so I can get my beautysleep during some nights over there.
I promise I’ll be kind, and if you’d like to, I can give you hugs & making breakfast every morning *puppyeyes*

Please send me a message at Facebook if you wanna hang out with me, or know a place where I can stay for a couple of days. A lot of kisses <3

My Christmas and new years eve!

It has been a while since I wrote a line here at my blog. Sorry for that ladies and gentlemen.

ElectriXmas in Malmö was great! I think that my friend, Erik took the price to organise the best pre-party ever in the year of 2011! I just say WOW! It was a lot of nice people in his apartment, and besides that a band named “047″ had a gig in his livingroom. How cool isn’t that?!
I loved the party, and danced to the chiptunes until I got so sweaty that I needed to go for a new glass of redbull & vodka

At my first day in Malmö I stayed at an old friends apartment. We haven’t seen each other for a very long time, so we made some dinner, and opened two bottles of wine….I think you can figure out the rest on your own, right?
Me and Viktoria had a lot of things to talk about since she became a mum, about a year ago. Now I know everything about babies! (yeeah… you think so Jenni) At least I know a lot of things about giving birth to a child, and I’m so impressed that women can handle that sort of thing! I’m still quite sure that never want to have a baby, but maybe some more cats if I find a bigger apartment in the future.

I celebrated Christmas eve at my parents place in Nybro (A very small town 4 hours  away from Gothenburg, where I live now) My grandparents and my sister’s family was there as well. We ate a lot of food and just had a soft and cosy evening together. I had been a good girl, so Santa Claus gave me some presents too ^^

Merry Christmas from me to you!

The day after Christmas eve (christmas day) I went to a friend that I got to know when I was about 19 years old. We haven’t talked that much since then, but I recently found out that he’s actually a very polite person. I must say that I had some preconceptions about him before, not because was a “bad” person or anything. I just have it hard to understand why people want to know me better and spend some more time with me sometimes (And I’m specially suspicious when that person is a man *coughs*) Hope he’s not a follower to my blog! :O
Well, we had some pre-party at his house before we took the bus in to town, for meeting up with some of his friends. The evening was splendid, and crazy as it use to be when it’s a party going on in Kalmar
I celebrated new years eve together with “M” as well, and believe it or not…. That night was even crazier than Christmas day! (So crazy that I won’t  letting you know, here at the blog sweethearts)

And one last thing… I’ve decided that january will be my “vegan-month”. So far it’s going well, I don’t miss cottage cheese that much *giggles* Wish me good luck boys and girls! Only three more weeks to go.

Kisses and hugs to you all! <3

ElectriXmas

Tomorrow, I will leave Gothenburg behind for a few days and go to Malmö for visiting some friends and go to ElectriXmas at saturday evening.
I was supposed to pack my bag tonight, but it’s still empty. I have no idea what to wear (as usual) but I guess I’ll figure out something before the train leaves tomorrow. I have mixed feelings for going to the concerts on saturday. It will be great to see some well known, cute faces again but It’s difficult to find anything joyful since Frida died.
I was asking her if she wanted to join me at this event, and only because of that I’m scared how I will react when I’m there without her. I hope I can smile and have a great time, and don’t been sitting in the bar and crying all my make up away.

I will go to her funeral this Tuesday. I guess it’ll be the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but I will be there for her even if I’m gonna feel like shit when I’m saying goodbye to this young girl who was my best friend.

I want to thank all of you for your comments about Fridas death, and I also want to thank three special persons in Kalmar who have supported me through this in a beautiful way!

My ex boyfriend, Mattias and I @ ElectriXmas last year.

Even if the sun shines, my world are just grey…

It’s hard to be strong now. She’s always on my mind, and sometimes it feels that she’s here for real.
I imagine her slender body giving me a hug, and her complaining about the rainy weather who made her pink hair being curly. I remember our crazy chats, and all the beautiful things she said to me. When I’m reading her textmessages I can’t stop crying. She gave me so much love. Told me I was the most beautiful person she knew, and said that she wouldn’t stand it if I leaved her. It was never my thought to leave this beautiful girl alone. I was so happy that she was my friend!

Thank you Frida for always being so sweet to me! <3
I love you!

I still can’t understand why you don’t have answering my messages, or have been calling my phone the last days. I still don’t want to belive it’s true…

She’s gone…

This day has been the worse day of my life. I still don’t want to understand that you’re gone. I’m alone now, I feel empty and I can’t stop crying. My mobile phone is filled with text messages from you, and it feels like someone shot a hole in my heart that never will heal..

I was so happy that I had found you as my friend. A very close friend that I could talk about everything with <3
Baby, when I met you it felt like Gothenburg suddenly grew to a better place. I promised to never leave you, I said that I would be there for you the rest of  my life…. At that time I didn’t knew that you only had a few weeks left.
You was supposed to sleep over at my place next week. Now I need to sleep in my bed all alone
Please Frida, can you take your beautiful wings and fly down to me? I need someone to look after me, I need someone to dry my tears , I need someone here that I can hug. I wish you still were in life so I would have the chance to give you a never-ending hug, and tell you once again how much I loved you! <3

F: You’re one of the most beautiful friend I ever had!

Iva: Ahhw! Darling! ♥♥♥♥♥
You can’t imagine how much I love you! You’re one of mine as well!

F: I can talk about everything with you! And I always having a fucking great time in your company!

Iva: Mhawww ♥ You’re adorable!!!

F: ♥♥♥♥ Thank you for existing, and being there for me!

I wish that she still was there for me…. I hope you find peace in heaven! I will always remember you <3 ALWAYS!

Frida had suffering for anorexia in a couple of years, and her heart was to weak after this long time of illness.
Her heart stopped beating….. But mine will never stop beating for you hun! <3

A trip to Stockholm to see my <3

My weekend in Stockholm was lovely, but to short though….
The time’s running fast when you having a good time, don’t you think?

I got up at 5 o’clock in the morning to pack my bag, doing my make up and after that heading the important meeting. (I can’t tell you anything about it yet ) After the meeting, that lasted in almost 4 hours (!) I went home, grabbed my suitcase and spend 4 hours on a train to Stockholm.
At the Stockholm central my dear friend Henrik picked me up, and he looked gorgeous as always! It was so nice to see him again and give him a big hug! ( I miss him a lot already)
Henrik and I first met when I still was working as a hairdresser in Kalmar (a small city in the southern Sweden) He was one of my costumers, and at that time he had long, white-blond hair that no one was allowed to touch (except me )
When I worked my last days at the hair salon in Kalmar, Henrik asked me if I wanted to have lunch together with him after cutting his hair. I think you can figure out what I answered

My beloved friend Henrik <3

Some weeks later I invited Henrik to go to my place in Gothenburg to celebrate the 1:st of may. We had a lovely time, and since then we have just being such a good friends. Ohhh, I’m so happy to have him as my friend <3 I love you baby!

Ok, back to what I did in Stockholm.
I found a guy that was selling his ticket to the VNV Nation concert at the saturday, so I bought it and went to a preparty together with a bunch of handsome people. Some of them was known from before, and some of them were new faces. I met Emelie and her boyfriend Andreas, from last week in Stockholm, and it was nice to talk to them again. The preparty turned out so good that we went a bit late to the concert and missed the support-band “Straftanz”.
I ordered a cinnamon-shot (fireball) and then Vnv Nation was heading the stage. I’ve seen Vnv for so many times now, so actually I wasn’t there to see their gig. I bought the ticket to meet people and having a great time. But I must say that the concert was one of the best I’ve seen with them ( or was it just because of my great company in the audience?)

I met a cute girl at the concert ,who was reading my blog.

After the concert I spend some time with Jörg from “Straftanz”. He’s really a nice guy and a gentleman as well! So if you live in the U.S, go and see them and VNV Nation on their tour! *I command you!*
As I mentioned before, the time runs fast when you having a great time, so in the morning I took a cab to Henriks place and fell asleep besides him <3

Besides the concert this weekend I was meeting my friend Sophie for a coffee. We had a long chat together, and she gave me so many good advises! Thank you sweetheart, I’m very glad to have you as my friend

After this weekend I’ve consider to be a vegan. I love meat, I really do, but sometimes it feels dirty to having this meat laying in my stomach for several days (I’ve heard that it takes up to 3 days for the meat to pass the system. Is it true?!)
The hardest thing of being a vegan must be that I can’t eat cottage cheese anymore   What to dooo?!

Stockholm

 

I will soon leave Gothenburg behind , and go to Stockholm for a few days.  I just love being in Stockholm!
My friend Henrik (“Heinrich”) will be my host this weekend, and it’s gonna be so nice to see him again <3
I haven’t seen him, or my other friend Robin ( who I’m supposed to meet as well) since August. Boys…. Prepare for a lot of hugs! ;*

I had a very, very exiting meeting this morning… Can’t tell you more about that right now, but when everything’s finished  and 100% clear, I’m looking forward to break the news and tell you all about it!

I am like a Trac(kk)tor!

Last weekend some friends of mine from the band Trakktor( http://trakktor.se/)was the supporter band to Nachtmahr on their swedish tour. They started in Gothenburg  friday night and I was there to be their “fille de joie” for the evening *grins*
After some drinks and beer ( I only drink beer in case of emergency) I decided to join them at the gig in Stockholm the day after. Ohh, I just love to be impulsive and crazy sometimes <3

Good-looking girls together with the lens louse Thomas Rainer.

Trakktor on stage.

Well, after a few hours of sleep, a friend of Jens (keyboardist in Trakktor) picked me, and some lovely nachtmahr-ladies up with his car to have a 6 hours long drive to our final destination. My bum felt kind of squashed after the trip, but I shook it at the dancefloor all night long nevertheless ^^
I must say that the night in Stockholm was one of my best evenings so far this year! I met new friends and friends from before, drank a lot of cinnamon-shots with Karin, looked at people with nice halloween-outfits (and other people who were handsome without being dressed up for Halloween ) I met some people who recognized me from the internet and my blog, and it was so nice talking to you! Hope I’ll meet you soon again

Charlie and Malin. Such a nice girls

Trakktor on stage @ Kolingsborg

Karin covered in blood. Yummiii!

I met Emelie and her boyfriend. isn’t they a cute couple?!

A big hug to:
Jens , Pierre, Rudolf, Charlie, Malin, The crazy Nachtmahr crew, the organisers and ALL cute people who made my evening insanely good! <3
And btw, I just stole a bunch of pictures at Facebook. Good night lovers! <3
