I dreamt about kittens, and something else amazing. Not sure what, but I was happy when I woke up.
I woke up to a beautiful sunrise. Pink and purple clouds, still lake, frost.
This might just be a good day :)

It has been an unusually good Sunday. Woke up quite early, chatted a bit, studied a bit (tiny tiny bit), had some breakfast.. Then I started Sims. And now I’m here, more or less. I got stuck. It’s really addictive :) I build up these huge stories and scenarios in my head, and then try to get the sims to act that way. It usually doesn’t work out, but it’s fun to try. Since Helena sent me the two expansions, I now have pets and seasons to play with too. Makes a big difference, I might buy the nightlife expansion too.
It’s grey and windy outside, probably raining and I’m still walking around in my pyjamas. Maybe time to take a shower and get dressed. :P
Perfect Sunday.
I would love for our autumn evenings to look like this. Not the grey, cold evenings we’ve had lately. Although, the cold weather causes mist, which is really beautiful. I guess you just can’t have everything :)
I’ve become a stats nerd. Ever since I got stats on Flickr and stats for this blog on Feedburner, I check it several times a day. I love numbers, I love to see what people look at.. I just want to know.d It’s really interesting
Oh, and parts of this post was written on my Eee. The keyboard isn’t that bad, although it takes a while to get used to the placement of the ‘ and <> and such. It’s a bit crammed :P
Ok so I spent approximately 1h in the sun. I’ve spent days in the sun, without any change at all! But now, now, my shoulders are pink like a pig. Or maybe like a pale tomato. And it hurts. Poor me :(
Summer finally arrived to Sweden, it’s 25-30C and sunny all day long. I will put on a real shirt this time and try to not die from thirst. Somehow my body is really bad at keeping water (or maybe I sweat exceptionally much?) so I have to drink water constantly between 11 and 16 to not get nauseous and get a headache. Bah. I hate water.
But it’s nice to be home. And it’s nice that it’s not raining ALL THE TIME. (Hi Holland!)
Seeems all I do is watching movies, huh? Well, tonight we went to the movies to see the new Narnia. It was brilliant! I’m a bit sad they skipped the first and third book (see edit) and only concentrate on the four “main” children, because I absolutely love The Horse and His Boy, but I can understand it from a storytelling point of view. I got quite confused by reading about other countries and stories in between.
The scenery was dreamlike (at least that’s how my dreams look like!) and the story is really well told. I think they have skipped quite alot and also changed some details, some things felt a bit wrong although it was years ago I read that book. You might think it’s a children’s movie, but I don’t think so. Grown-ups can definitely enjoy it, with the subtle jokes and good play. I recommend it :)
Did I mention the weather is just stunning and I’m happy too?
Edit: It seems I’m a bit misinformed. The Narnia series in Swedish I have read were published in a chronological order from a story point-of-view, rather than in the order they were written. Which means “The Wizard’s Nephew” and “The Horse and His Boy” is the first and third book respectively. And I had no idea they weren’t actually published as such originally! So the two films are actually no 1 and 2, but I have read them as no 2 and 4. Sorry for the confusion :)
I think there’s a storm here at the moment. At least that’s how it sounds outside my window. I love storms when I know I can stay inside, the sounds of the “forces of nature” really makes me feel small, but good. I don’t know how to describe it. It feels like you are in the hands of something bigger, more important. Essays and back aches feels less important, nature is calling. I’m definitely a “nature romantic” :P
Tomorrow’s lesson is cancelled, so I don’t know what will make me get out of bed tomorrow. Hopefully something will. I want to get that essay finished and take photos of my stamps :)
Welcome! I usually go by the name Stylva, Anja or Ylva, but the last is my real name. This was once my primary blog, but is now mainly aimed at gaming, coding and Wordpress. I play a lot of Aion and used to play Guild Wars and World of Warcraft, and I really like Wordpress and theme building :)
If you would like to read more of me, I write in Swedish at tumtum.se.
