Eternity.

It feels like an eternity although, it's only been two days since the last time I held you in my warm embrace. I look up to the evening stars and find traces from your smiling eyes not to mention your handsome face.

In the lonely hour I think of all the encouraging things you always say. A smile then always appears and replaces the troubled tears, I find my way back to my happy place where I'm with you and reflect upon how much I long to be able to be, eat and sleep with you every day.

It feels like an eternity although, it's only seven days left until I'll be able to cuddle up in your arms. For that is the one place that truly feels like home to me, next to you, to be able to admire my amazing man and his lucky charms.

See you soon, my love

One Single Letter.


I'm always looking for elegant yet simple everyday jewellry such as bracelets, earrings and necklaces. I saw this beautiful piece at Jak & Jil's Blog and fell completely in love with the cute one single letter in gold that the woman on the picture above is wearing.

I haven't seen anything like this here in Sweden so I'm guessing she bought it abroad. Perhaps one could ask a jeweller to do something similar? I have seen several small shops here in Örebro so I will definitely go in and ask one day. If it's not possible, well then the search will continue..

Happy Days.

Crazy, I can't believe it's the last day of February today?! It almost feels as if March will disappear just as quickly and soon it will be summer before you know it..! However I do love the early mornings and the fact that the sun keeps rising a little bit earlier for each day. I've always been a "morning person" so this is my favourite time of the day.

For some reason today is one of those days when it feels as if life is smiling at you. I've felt it all morning, a warm fuzzy feeling deep within - could it possibly be Spring feelings that makes me write this way? Still I believe the main reason for this flowery language has to do with the fact that I'm literally high over heels at the moment ^^ Nothing can go wrong when you're feeling like this! Can't help but feel like a suuuperwoman!

Good Luck.

Good morning rock stars! I hope you slept well! After a rather slow morning I'm finally waking up to life, looking forward to this new day! My plans are to study in the morning and go to town with L during the afternoon, she had spring cravings yesterday and I don't blame her.. ;)

Besides that I just wanted to say Good Luck to my love V! Today is an important day for him as he's sitting on an important meeting right this second. I cross all my fingers and toes for you hoping for the very best, you will always be a star in my eyes, you are the greatest!

Saknad.

Det är två tysta och varsamma ögon som följer konturerna från din bröstkorgs mjuka rörelser i nattens sena timme. Dina djupa andetag väcker mina örons uppmärksamhet, skapar ett lugn inombords och väcker ett kärt minne.

Ett leende sprider sig på mina läppar när du i sömnen vänder dig och plötsligt omfamnar mig. Själen fylls av en stilla trygghet och hjärtat av en obeskrivlig lycka varje tillfälle som jag är nära dig.

Det är två små och blygsamma händer som försöker nästla sig in i ditt fasta grepp. När ögonen är slutna och den midnattsblå ridån gått ned försvinner allt, ja till och med mitt tidsbegrepp.

Ett stjärnfall av kärlek rinner ner längs med mina kinder denna kväll. Saknaden är stor och den inre längtan av att få återförenas med min andra halva, min bäste vän & livs kärlek gör sig lite extra påmind denna februarikväll

Featuring Lindsey Stirling.


Most evenings/late nights I stay up listening to piano music. My recent discover is this excellent violinist Lindsey Stirling who recorded one of my personal favourite melody's "River flows in You" by Yiruma featured in "Twilight". I've had it on repeat these last couple of days.

Anyway if you appreciate classic music like myself you will surely enjoy this tune. For those of you who don't, do be afraid to try something new! You might be amazed! ;)

Winter SALE.

Picture: Collage made by me (pictures from Zara & Google)

I did some shopping during my stay in Stockholm last weekend. The black and white leather bomber jacket was on SALE, a piece I've been looking at for a long time..! Therefore according to me a very good bargain ;)

The black shopper bag is also a popular bag that has sold out in the store and now that they had received a new delivery I simply couldn't resist.. Now all that I'm missing is a pair of stylish black Wayfarers! Hello Spring, where are you..?

Happiness.

Hey guys! Sorry for the bad updates this weekend but I went to Stockholm last Thursday and returned to Örebro by midday today. I had the best time with my beloved boyfriend, family members & friends and therefore there was simply no time for me to write any posts, sorry! But I'm here now ;)

If only there were enough words to describe how much it means to me to be able to go home like this and to have all my beloved ones so far away, yet so near. A two hour long journey and I'm safe & sound, the one place where my heart belongs. Barely the thought fills me with so much strength and positive energy in my lungs.

Other than that I have a good week to look forward to! Fun happenings that will take place towards the weekend and not too much heavy work/studies at Uni brings out an ever bigger smile upon my face, but mostly because of the happiness and serenity I'm feeling deep within.

Thank you V, for always making my day ♥ For each day that passes us by I realize how I keep falling deeper in love with you. Ever thine, Ever Mine, Ever ours.

Smile at the Rain.

Picture: We heart it

The rain have been pouring down all afternoon and I must say that it is one of the reasons for keeping me on a good note. The second reason for my happiness is that I'm leaving for Stockholm tomorrow - finally!! It feels as if I've been waiting for ages for this day to come and I'm glad it's so close now ;)

Besides that my head feels literally speaking like a squashed potato since I've been studying all afternoon for the seminar tomorrow at the University. It feels great now that my group and I are so well prepared for tomorrow's task.

Anyway I think I'll have to have an early evening tonight to regain new energy and strength for the long day tomorrow. I'll make myself a cup of tea and perhaps I'll have time to write another post before I say good night!

Wonderful Wednesday.

Rise & shine beautiful people! I woke up to grey and rainy weather outdoors however I did get some sunshine inside my heart while texting with my love during the early morning. I simply couldn't come up with any better idea to start this wonderful Wednesday and so I'm all smiles!

I'll be meeting my study group after lunch for the preparations for tomorrow's seminar. It's all so exciting and I began a new course this Monday, still hoping & waiting for the results from the big examination I had last week. Still I've got a feeling we'll have to wait a little bit longer approximately two more weeks.

Anyway I should probably get dressed and get ready to start this new day! I've got the feeling that it's going to be a pretty long day just like yesterday so I better prepare a good lunch box and dinner as well now that I've got some free time. Enough said, have a great day everybody!

London Calling.

Picture: Collage made by me (pic 1 to the left & pic 2 to the right)

I know that I've mentioned it before but I'd love to go on a shorter trip somewhere in Europe during Spring. London is one of the cities that I yet haven't fully discovered and would love to see! Yet Paris is also a big favourite of mine.. Perhaps one could get away on a short weekend? Time to start planning..

Spring Cravings.

Good evening folks, how's the new week started out for you? Good I hope! I've been busy all day with a long lecture during the morning and during the afternoon I've been cooking, doing laundry and cleaning the apartment. I deserved a long shower after all the heavy work and now I'm all cuddled up in my sofa and I'm not going to move :)

So happy it's Monday, meaning I've only got three more days because on Thursday I'll be off to Stockholm to spend some quality time with the people I love the most ♥ I wonder if there are any signs of Spring in Stockholm? As I was walking home from Uni today I saw that the snow is nearly gone and there's not much left.

Spring in Stockholm is something special, especially the Cherry Blossom Trees in Kungsträdgården. I have to be there this year sometime in March or April when they will bloom..!

I absolutely love the contrasts in the first picture of Zara's look book for their Spring/Summer collection of 2012. The beautiful pastel colours reminds me of ice cream! Cravings for Spring!

Missing You.

A lonely soul has set her eyes at dawn. With warm feet she gently swifts away and touches the dew drops of the golden lawn. A cool spring breeze get's a hold of her light & curly hair and makes her body shiver. Suddenly the thoughts hits her that He is not anywhere near and so the tears come streaming like an endless river.

Waking up in the middle of the night and not being able to go back to sleep just because He is not here makes the heart tremble. The warm and safe embrace that always keeps you safe and makes the impossible possible. Some people say that home is where your heart is, I believe I left mine together with His. ♥

Run to You.

Picture: Deviantart

I know that when you look at me
There's so much that you just don't see
But if you would only take the time
I know in my heart you'd find
A girl who's scared sometimes
Who isn't always strong
Can't you see the hurt in me?
I feel so all alone

I wanna run to you
I wanna run to you
Won't you hold me in your arms
And keep me safe from harm
I wanna run to you
But if I come to you
Tell me, will you stay or will you run away

...

I need you here
I need you here to wipe away my tears
To kiss away my fears
If you only knew how much...

Tonight's lyrics & song - Run to You - Whitney Houston

Slow Sunday.

Good afternoon! I trust you've all had a great weekend sofar? Last night turned out to be huge success! The three dishes we ate were amazing and afterwards my friends and I kept on dancing until 1 AM in the morning to the best of songs. A great night to remember ;)

Therefore today turned out to be a Slow Sunday, I've done nothing productive today besides baked scones and talked to V through Skype and yes that's basically it! Haha I love it, considering the hectic week I've just had this is the best way to end the week and to gain new energy for tomorrow.

I also have so many pictures to show you from the big party last night! Give me a day or two and I'll fix a collage asap ;) By the way the dress that I wore got so many compliments and truly I felt so glamorous in it! Time for a quick shower, later skaters!

Eye-catcher.

Picture: Collage made by me - pictures from Nelly

Here's a picture of the beautiful dress I'll be wearing tomorrow evening..! They named it "Beyonce dress" which I believe to be a very suitable name since one does feel like Beyonce while wearing it - all glamorous and beautiful!

I promise to take lots of pictures tomorrow ;) So stay tuned! Sleep tight!

Examination.

I am so sorry for the bad updates this week but I've been way to busy studying for the BIG exam that I had today during the afternoon. I believe it's official now, I've done my first real examination at Örebro University!

It feels great and somehow I got the feeling that it's truly happening, for real. There are times when I think about how lucky I've been, that I got admitted to my first choice of university and programme, that I am studying at University level and that I'm on my way to become one of the greatest Human Relations specialist! :) Finally - I've reached one of my dreams and it will only get better..!

Enough said, I'm completely exhausted and I really need to get some sleep for tomorrow's the BIG party! Don't worry I'll let you know more about it tomorrow ;) Still I can reveal today that I've booked an appointment at the hairdresser to get big and curly hair! Picture updates on Sunday! Now sleep.. Sweet dreams!

Jon Schmidt - Just the Way You Are (Piano Cover)

Terrific Tuesday.

I was hoping Spring was around the corner now that we've had several days with warmer temperatures but last night it turned around again. It kept snowing all night and it's literally pouring down heavy snowflakes outdoors as I'm typing this.

So cosy now that I'm all surrounded by warm candles yet longing for my love who happens to be far away. Talking about an awful thing to be forced to be apart on Valentine's Day. Still I must say that we have called upon each other all day by surprising one another with flowers (read roses) and V also arranged a little surprise for me, to find a few smaller gifts that he had hidden in my apartment during his stay here last weekend. It literally felt like Christmas morning..!

Besides that I've been studying with the girls during the morning before we all headed to my place in the afternoon to enjoy some Valentine's cupcakes and a delicious fruit salad that I made earlier today. K, L & me all have boyfriends while M is still single (but not for too long I shall think) ;) so I thought it would be a good idea to celebrate this day together and not by ourselves.

I hope you've all had a great day and that you've had lots of love around you. I feel so blessed to be surrounded by such amazing people and somehow it feels as if I've reached my first peak this year. A good point where I'm actually feeling very happy! Let's just hope that it will stay this way.

Happy Valentine's Day.

Picture: We heart it

Thank you for the wonderful surprise today my Love, I simply couldn't have started this day in a better way! I miss You..! You'll be in my thoughts today ♥

Wonderful Weekend.

It's Sunday evening, Coldplay's "Fix You" keep streaming out from my speakers and suddenly I realize that this wonderful weekend has now reached its end. I've had time to laugh, live & love with some of the people I admire and love the most. New acquaintances who have become beloved friends in a short period of time. Truly, I feel so blessed to be surrounded by such beautiful guarding angels. I love my girls ♥

Most important above all I spent Thursday, Friday & Saturday evening with my love from Stockholm. V and I have been old friends for a very long time and yes we did have a "fling" a couple years ago. Truth be told, it all started with a teenage-crush (!) I was head over heels in love with him during 7th grade (junior high) when he attended his last year in high school.

Many years have passed since then and yet we have been good friends all this time. Still, I cannot tell you how happy I am right this moment. Not only have we re-discovered our love for each other but also the deep bond that we share deep within. After all that we've been through, both good and bad experiences it feels extraordinary to have found this powerful energy between us and that it would lead us back to each other despite the distance between us now.

For I have found a kindred spirit, a man who knows and understands me by heart. A man who always makes me smile, whom I wish to share all my goals, ambitions, thoughts and unique qualities with. A special someone that keeps telling me beautiful words such as "I like you, just the way you are".

Thank you my love for spending time with me & creating such wonderful memories this weekend. For the ♥ 10th of February of 2012 ♥ will be a day to remember and a date I will carry close to my heart.

Video exclusive feat. Emmanuelle Alt, Vogue Paris.


What a way of opening the start of a new career..! I love the song & the cool retro video that the French Fashion Editor of Vogue, Emmanuelle Alt has made with a long list of celebrity models. Check out the cool video!

Wonderful Wednesday.

Good morning rockstars, I trust you all slept well? I've been up since 6:15 AM this morning since I'd booked the laundry room from 7-11 AM. Unfortunately I haven't slept properly tonight either because I kept dreaming that I wouldn't get up in time and miss out washing my clothes. So annoying and therefore I've got a slight headache coming over me :/ Hopefully it will turn around later when I'll be heading to the Uni.

Anyway I can't believe it's already Wednesday?! I've been studying so much every day this week not to mention the long hours K, L, M & me will be spending at the library next week before the big exam on Friday. The days feel so long yet they run away before my eyes.

Luckily I'll have some time to rest and regain energy this weekend as I'll be having two days without studying. It almost feels like my head would explode if it wouldn't get a break :) So looking forward to Friday ♥

Enough said for now, it's time to start this new day. There's a long list of "to-do-things" so I better get started.. I wish you all a Wonderful Wednesday!

Would you be my Valentine?

Picture: We heart it

Valentine's Day is coming up and I'm preparing a big surprise to my friends here in Örebro. Above is a little hint.. ;) Stay tuned for more info!

Morning Monday.

Sorry for the bad updates this weekend! My good friend M and I have been studying all weekend for the big test coming up in two weeks.. It was also the last week for all the introduction games and get-to-know-each other-activities.

Crazy, on Wednesday this week I've been here in Örebro for four weeks (!) time really does fly when you're having fun ;) I'll post some pictures from the last activities that I attended both on Friday & Saturday later!

Anyway I'm happy it's Monday, my other good friend L is coming home today after visiting her boyfriend in Lund! Tomorrow I'll be attending an interesting event at the University called "career day", where more than 90 different firms will be representing themselves. I believe it is a good opportunity for us students to get new contacts and to focus on our work opportunities in the future. This will be a quick preview and I can't tell you how excited I am about it!

Besides this I've planned to study a lot this week as I'm getting company this weekend from Stockholm ♥ As you can see there are so many fun things going on right now I'm just going to enjoy the ride! I wish you all a great start of the week! Love Liv

Friday 3 February 2012

3 is a magic number.

Picture: Private - collage made by me

Started off the week with a great power walk with M, it was pretty cold but nice to get some fresh air so early in the morning. It's nearly -13°C outdoors right now and so therefore I've been wearing lots of warm knits this week.

My personal favourite is the white one from Zara which I got from my other good friend M for Christmas, thank you love! Anyway time to get ready and kick off this fun Friday! There's a big competition tonight.. I'll tell you more about it tomorrow! I wish you all a beautiful day!

Mademoiselle.

Picture: Chanel

I believe I've written about this perfume before haven't I? Unlike the other perfumes from Chanel "Mademoiselle" is not as heavy like the others. For I think it is classy, elegant & timeless.

Therefore it is one of my absolute favourite scents and I made myself a promise that if I pass the upcoming exam I have within 16 days (!) I'll give myself a little treat.. Excellent motivation right? ;) Anyway, time for bed! Sweet dreams
