I wanna relearn what I already know.


I've decorated the apartment, wrapped in all the presents, made two out of seven sorts, the house smells of green soap and incense and Christmas songs is flowing out of the speaker system. Everything is pretty much set for Christmas to come.

The Christmas usually starts December 23d, the day before Christmas Eve to me. I believe this evening is almost as important as Christmas Eve. The entire family gathers in front of the TV to see our beloved "Dinner for One"- or most known as; "The Butler and the Countess" ("Grevinnen og Hovmesteren" to Norwegians). When the  famous intro of the short movie starts it's like Christmas can finally begin. We all lower our shoulders and a peaceful silence settles in the house.

The kids, consisting of my little sister; Henny Sofie, at the age of thirteen, my little brother; Wendell Gee, eighteen and myself; twenty-one ("kids", haha) usually go to bed quite early this evening. Even though I happen to be the oldest "kid" (by the society considered a grown up at the age of twenty-one) I believe I am just as excited as all the six year-olds in the world. I just LOVE Christmas. I tend to wake up at 6 a.m, grab my Christmas stocking, run to my brother's room, wake him up and drag him to my sister's bed, where check out what Santa filled our stockings with.

I have to see "Snekker Andersen og Julenissen" (Carpenter Andersen and Santa Claus), Disney's Christmas classics and "Reisen til Julestjernen" (The Journey to the Christmas Star). I love the moment when my brother, sister and I don't know what to laugh the most from: Donald Duck trying to photograph Woody Woodpecker or dad laughing himself silly.

I hope you're all á jour with your to do-list and the rest of the Christmas preparations. Remember to take care of your loved one's - and everyone else.


Here's the Advent calendar I made for my boyfriend:

I just want to wish you all and your friends and family a wonderful Christmas and all the best!

snowbound.


Well, not really snowbound, but the snowflakes are big as marbles, and it snows a lot. These photos are
taken this afternoon from my balcony. It's so beautiful and I feel the Christmas spirit come sneaking. 
Clementines, gingerbread and cocoa. And Christmas music. Springsteen, The Killers, Dylan and Dolly 
Parton, all have some of my favorite Christmas songs! I can't wait much longer - I love Christmas!

My lovely sister and I checked out the Anna Dello Russo collection. We ended up not buying 
anything, but we had a lot of fun trying out the crazy sunglasses and jewelries.

It's fall and I dress accordingly. We all know earthen colors is the colors of the fall season.
Burgundy, mustard yellow, brown, black, dark green, beige - you can't go wrong. Earthen 
colors is the colors of the fall season. Play around and remember to keep it simple. Fall is beautiful.

I'm going out to breathe in the fresh autumn air for a couple hours. I look forward to enjoy a warm 
shower and a nice cup of tea in the corner of the sofa when I come back home. Sunday, lovely, sunday.
