Sleepyhead
Another good day has passed, I was on an interview for a new part time job that seemed great.. school is good, I managed to send that last assignment in on time ;) and “real” school starts on thursday.. feels great to be studying for real again, when I think about it, the last time I sat on a real lecture in Sweden was before my Erasmus Exchange to Warsaw.. i.e. 2006. Then it has just been thesiswriting and that kind of “boring” stuff.. haha
I love my pictures.. I could just look at them all day and post them here.. I know it’s boring but they’re so great!! Ah, just look at this one.. it’s from the Escadaria Selarón in one of my absolute favourite cities: Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.. and hey, it connects with the video further down.. ;)
So, after finishing the japanese writer Kobo Abe’s – Woman in the Dunes last week I have now put my hands onto yet another Milan Kundera book, I love this guy, he’s great.. and the title of this one is “The book of laughter and forgetting“. Read Kunderas “The unbearable lightness of being” por favor. I wont post a link here.. just read it, it’s a favourite.
Passion Pit are playing live in Copenhagen tonight.. we didn’t go. Youtube can do this for me, and then I’ll return to reading..

xin min – a dreamer
I have a Chinese name that my dear friend Lu Zhen gave me when I was in China last year. We sat in our favourite café in beautiful Kunming talking about everything and looking forward to the Korean kimchi sushi next door.. and then she made the name up for me.. and it’s perfect!
So, it’s Meng Xin Min or just Xin Min.. what it means?
I love it..
When I went to the town Lijiang a couple of weeks later, I found this hand carved wooden hair stick in a small store. I had the artist carve my Chinese name into it.. and it was beautiful! Unfortunately I lost it some months later.. as hair-sticks have a tendency to dissapear. Today I just use regular pencils to keep my hair in place.. but I’m looking forward to go to China some time again soon, so that I can find that old man in Lijiang.. and ask him to make a hair stick with the tail of phoenix bird for me again.. and of course with my name carved into it.

After a couple of beautiful and perfect days comes this one..
The weekend has been fantastic, a friend moving to Miami had this years loudest and craziest party where everybody had a great time. We have walked around the city festival, having food and watching different bands.. everybody has been happy and relaxed and everything has been just perfect.
Today things are less fun. Lucky is completely lost in her own world.. she is afraid and worried and just stands still not responding to anything.. if she tries to walk she doesn’t know where she’s going.. she just wants to be close.. sleeping in my lap.
What do you do when you know what needs to be done but it just feels wrong?
Zenit TTL
It’s 3 o’clock in the morning and I’m supposed to be finishing a report for my course.. I know.
But I just found this thing among my mothers’ stuff..! It’s a russian 35mm SLR camera from the late 70’s.
Now just guess how happy I am! Getting 35mm film is my next mission.. then I’m just hoping that it’s still alive.. my mother claims it should be.. I hope she’s right!
