Seven Nation Army
I heard this melody in the new GI Joe: Retaliation trailer the other day on tv and fell totally in love with it. As you already know, I'm a huge fan of soundtracks both of movies and tv-shows :) So when they release a good movie with a killer soundtrack I just loose it ^^.
It has the perfect amount of beats that I need and well, just perfection all the way. Even better when they said that White Stripes did this one! Sadly the first movie was a tiny bit boring but you know I might just give it another shot since the new one is coming soon :) And I love Channing Tatum...I do ;)
Today I'm hanging out with my friend Vero, she's in search for some things to her house and I'm there for her moral support ^^. I'm really really tired so I'm not staying out for so long, just the time necessary. I'm thinking about going back to the gymn again and pick up where I started.
Have a great day all! Oh and don't forget to support the movie " Sunrise Tonight "

"It's been a really messed up week"
Ahh...Hot Chelle Rae's hit song "Tonight Tonight" describes this week perfectly. It's been messed up after my cold/allergy/asthma round, visit to the doctors, sending off a message to a guy I met in the beginning of january and then in may, now we're going out on a date on thursday and somehow I feel kind of lost. Not in a bad way though, in a good way. I'm nerveous, but happy...longing but yet trying to brace myself 'cause I don't want to mess things up.
Now, I find myself at work trying to survive these last hours before I'm heading home to my cold shower and my bed....I need to sleep. I've been sleeping great these last days, no turning around and just dreams in colours.
Well last night, I watched tv with my mom and sister...well they watched "Eurovision Song Contest" in Baku, Azerbajian (sorry about the spelling if it's wrong) and saw Loreen win the whole thing. I think she's cool and the entire compound (song, the dancing, her whole idea) is really unique. So she deserved to win.
On another matter, I gave my thursday date a breather (I don't want him to get tired of me) since I intend to send too much text messages to friends or potential interest....but how much is much really? I remember when Marcus (the guy I went to the UK with) said in the beginning of our friendship that I sent too much messages (4-5 a day) but somehow I managed to stay put when we drifted apart. I'm a social person, not so good at talking in person with a guy but text? You don't have to feel too shy or anything...just be yourself.
Truth be told? I'm starting to like him a lot, I mean he's handsome and charming but I still feel like it's just a dream, I'm waking up tomorrow and this was just that: a beautiful dream.
Well, in just a few more minutes I'll be heading home (Thank God). But since I won't be on the computer home, I might just say....
"We're going at it tonight tonight
There's a party on the rooftop top of the world
Tonight tonight and we're dancing on the edge of the Hollywood sign"
Goodnight All and sleep tight ;)

Weekend Off: Got hit by a cold :(
It was perfect to have the weekend off, I had such plans like cleaning and going to the movies to finally see "Avengers" what happens? I get hit by a cold :(
Luckily I'm starting to feel better but still, I only managed to clean my room and fix the photos with the guys from "Bloodynightcon 2" but going to the movies was a big no no.
So I've been watching movies at home, starting with both MIB movies and tonight I think I'll watch some Hawaii 5-0 season 2 :)
All my fav tv-shows: Hawaii 5-0, The Vampire Diaries and Bones are on summer break and will be starting this fall with new seasons and new chapters of current seasons. Can't wait really!!!! :)
I have tons of movies at the cinema to go and see, but somehow I never have the time.....it just runs of my hands. Today it's also 2 weeks since my trip to Barcelona and I also feel like I can't wait to be on a trip like this again :) Maybe it's going to be London in august or if I wait a little more, maybe I'll take that trip to Hawaii (a week and a half).
Let's just see ;)
Bye for now
Hello Stockholm
Back in Stockholm and on my way home to my family. I missed you girls so much!!!! Love you! <3

Waiting for time to pass and me to board...
My view
From my hotel room :)
My room at Barceló
Could be my apartment ;) I only miss the kitchen!
La Pedrera
It was unfortunately closed when I got there but since I know were it is, shouldn't be a problem for next time I'm in town.
Barceloneta Beach
Long walks here would be magical for my feet :) Reminds me of another beautiful beach back home in Chile.
Sagrada Familia church
Out front, constantly remodeling but it's gorgeous and so big! Gaudí is truly a mastermind!
Cathedral of Barcelona
In the heart of Barrio Gotic you find this beautiful cathedral. Inside it's even more beautiful! If you visit, go in even if you're not a believer...just look at the architecture!
First stop: Las Ramblas
Reminds me of Santiago...no wonder it felt like home too.
I joined MIB ;-)
I'm the new agent P :)

Spacial touch, Houston we don't have a problem with that ;)

Last Day in Barcelona
Sunday May 6th:
I got up early, quick shower, packed my last stuff and went downstairs to have some breakfast. Today I was alone though and not that many people up having breakfast. It was a huge party last night for ISF (Ian Somerhalder Fundation) but I didn't buy a ticket (too busy exploring Barcelona within 4 hours ^^). After breakfast I picked up my pic with Matt Davis (we took pictures on saturday afternoon), just to realise I looked hideous (hahaha). Went upstairs and got my bag, took a few pictures from out the window, then left to check out.
Unfortunately my picture and signing session with Paul Wesley went down the drain since I needed to be at the airport at 1.30 pm. I did have time to listen to Ian talk again but not the whole session.
So I left, a bit sad but still very happy with everything I had seen. Also I needed to see my family again, 'cause I missed them so much!
I talked to my mom and sister on my way to the airport, went through security and waited for my flight.
Finally in the air, I fell asleep for an hour and half until they announced that we were about to land in Arlanda. An hour later I was seeing my sister and mother waiting for me at the bus stop :) I missed them so much!!!!!!!!!!!
Barcelona, thank you for your hospitality and I'll see you again soon! No vampires then, just you and I ;) Until then: Gracias y nos vemos!

To Barcelona for the weekend: Day 2 part 2
After all the signing and photosessions I was finally done for the day. Catched a quick view of Paul Wesley and Nina Dobrev. Hopefully I would get to see "Stefan" up close on sunday...
It was already 6 pm and I thought that I needed to see some other places before going home on sunday and somehow time was quite the issue.
I left my stuff in my hotelroom and then took the train to "Sagrada Familia" station, were I found this gigantic church right in front of me. The museum part was closed but not the church itself, so I took some shots of it outside and then went inside to pray, lit some candles, more shots...time had seem to stop for that moment. All I felt, was peace.
After I walked a little to one side of the church and got some shots of the park, travelled then one station to make the change to go to the beach "Barceloneta". Outside it's station I felt the ocean breeze in my face and ran almost the entire way to the beach, it was absolutely beautiful!
I took off my shoes and socks, to feel the mediterranean water on my feet. Wow, it had been a while since I had been at the beach. I believe it was Båstad a few years ago.
I sat in the sand for a while, again time stopped....it was so great to just be there and I didn't feel like going back to the hotel, how I wanted my mom and sister to see this gorgeous coast, enjoy it as much as I am. One day, I'll come back to just tourist around :)
I bought an icecream on my way back to the train station, stopped to buy some snacks for later during the night and went to the hotel. I took a short shower to get rid of all the sand and then a long bath....Awesome!
I started packing, realised that my suitcase wouldn't be enough with all the stuff I had bought for my girls, my best friend and my friends at work. Tv on, Barcelona game :) Pep Guardiola's last then some "Iron Man 2" in spanish ;D
Goodnight!
Ps: All the pics I've taken will be put on in a picture spree ;)

To Barcelona for the weekend: Day 2 part 1
May 5th
Morning to All!
I woke up at 5:30, 6:30 and then 7:15...couldn't sleep any more, I think that the heat had definetely gone down and it was kind of cold. Shower, dressed and ready to have some breakfast before going to the opening ceremony of "Bloodynightcon 2012". I looked for a seat and everything was taken, most people sat together 'cause they knew each other but I needed a place for me, alone. I saw this woman sitting all by herself, so I asked if I could sit there. She smiled and said "Yeah sure." We began talking a bit, it turned out that she was going to the convention as well, only that she had an "Exclusive Pass"...so we didn't sit in the same row. Her name is Yvonna and she's from Holland, very nice to talk to :) I could say the only friend I got there.
We spoke during the entire breakfast, I received a call from home so I excused myself to answer and then she told me she had a family of her own: a hubby and 2 kids. I told her my family were my girls: mom and sister. It turned out she had worked in the north of Chile (Arica) in a cargo company, which is very cool...turns out we both liked the country :)
After breakfast we said bye and got into the big salon were the opening ceremony was about to begin, my row was O seat 07 but it looked pretty much like I was 007 ^^. The arrangers spoke for a moment, welcomed everybody to the Bloodynightcon 2012 and welcomed also the guests: Ian Somerhalder (Damon Salvatore), Matt Davis (Alaric Saltzman) and Michael Trevino (Tyler Lockwood). Ian was pretty much the same as I've seen on tv...Damon Salvatore: good looking, sweet and dangerous!! All three were real sweethearts <3
They talked a while, a little about their characters and then the last two left the stage to let Ian talk to his fans. Suddenly my knees were shaking, his intense smile and gaze was like Damon looking for potential targets hehehehe no, he was just sweet to everyone. Something that the room wasn't good for his ego :)
Some girls were brave to ask him questions, I had some but was too chicken to ask...maybe I could say something during the photosession or the autograph session.... LOL
He finished and Matt Davis entered the room, in the mean time Ian was having photosessions for the exclusive passes first. I listened to Matt, he was really funny and somehow more earthly cute than dangerous Ian....my favourite vampire. Turns out Matt is quite shy around women and girls, has a mad sense of humour, loves to laugh and likes Barcelona a lot.
Finally Michael came and answered questions, he was a little nerveous but very nice too. Turns out he wants to open a restaurant of his own, once he learns to cook :) if he quits acting.
Photosessions with Ian began for Salvatore Passes, so I stepped out and got in line, it went quite fast so my knees were shaking again. Once in the photoroom, he was there....Ian "Damon" Somerhalder right in front of me. I went to him, we high fived before he took me into his warm and strong arms (now I know how Elena feels ^^), we hugged (he kissed me on my left cheek), we spoke for a while and posed for the picture :) Then said bye and I went out. Wow that was surely pretty intense...OMG I just hugged and got kissed by Damon Salvatore !!!! ^^
Later on, it was time for signing sessions with Matt Davis and Michael Trevino. They're such nice guys!! I asked Matt if I could get a hug and he hugged me twice and kissed me on my right cheek!!
Then Michael asked me how I was, I told him just fine just that my contactlenses were making my eyes itch. I asked how he was, he said "Yeah me too, you should get some liquid on them..it's kinda off dry here. Take care sweetheart!" Awwww!!!!
Another break before the signing session with Ian, this time I wouldn't be too chicken to ask him something about his brothers business with BOB but like when we saw each other at the photosession I was too nerveous. We high fived again, talked a little and said bye...he's so sweet that I totally forgot what to ask him! ^^
Finally photosession with Matt Davis, I think he recognised me from earlier 'cause he said "Well hello there, how are you sweetie?" I smiled and responded "Just fine thanks and you?" "I'm just all good." His voice is soothing....oh wow, am I falling for Mr Saltzman?!! ^^

Oh...wow.... ^^
Sometimes I get surprised when guys show appreciation to me...well sometimes too much ;D I tend to forget to see myself as attractive (I can only see myself as pretty and that does not happen everyday) and when a guy smiles at you, jokes and just you know flirts.....just wow.
It happened today and I couldn't do anything besides being myself...I actually think he has a thing for me :) Either that or he's just nice, everytime I walk into that office and he remembers me!!!
Let's just say that besides the rain, it was quite the sunshine day for me ;D
Had some icecream with my dear sister (we haven't been out since before I left for Barcelona) and we had some quality time :) She did some shopping, I some flirting and just had fun you know ;D
Great day!!!

To Barcelona for the weekend: Day 1
My expected trip to Barcelona for the Vampire Diaries Convention at the Barceló Hotel had arrived, I almost didn't believe it until I was getting ready early in the morning on friday May 4th :D
Although I was having a nerveous moment, I made it through...said bye to my family and headed for the direct bus into town. Made the switch in Hornstull and took the subway, then the airport coach at Cityterminalen to Arlanda Airport. The journey was so quick, I couldn't fall asleep and finally at the airport I felt liked a caged animal....all I could do was to count the hour until boarding.
Luckily I got window seat, which was cool and then had to wait like 20 minutes before departure since it were far too many planes heading out.
I had some breakfast, fell asleep, woke up from the guy next to me shaking during his sleep and suddenly we were watching the Swiss Alps...a little more further they said that we were about to land in Barcelona.
It looked so much like home, even though the language is a little different from ours. I asked for the train, took it and 20 minutes later I found the hotel at Barcelona Sants station (just next door). Checking in took a while, loads of people waiting in line....finally my turn and I got my bedroom. Third floor, room 335. Suddenly it was like going into Men in Black (the movie): same chairs in the lobby and the room numbers...my bedroom was absolutely freaking gorgeous!
My bed was so big that I could sleep either across it or on one side! I chosed to sleep on the right side ;D The view was also cool, I could see quite far :) So I unpacked some of my clothes, headed out the door to attend the registration for the convention.
Loads of people, mostly girls waiting anciously...while in line I saw someone familiar....a guy...wait a minute isn't that....OMG Ian Somerhalder!!!! He was standing there, talking to some girls and just looked so normal (compared to Damon hehe). Why was I the only one looking at him? Suddenly one of the staff asked me for my attending number which was 295, I had to wait some more in another line. I asked her why Ian was standing in line there, why no one else dared to talk to him. She just smiled and said "Oh that's not Ian, it's his official doppelganger Jamie".
What? So like in the show Elena is the doppelganger of evil vampire Katherine, Jamie is Ians....cool! I calmed my heart, how cool could it be to have a double somewhere in the world without even knowing? It's one of the worlds strange things :)
Finally my turn in line, like 45 minutes later...I received my Salvatore pass, my envelope with information and the photosessions but one was missing...the one with Ian (kind of like my reason for going). The girl who handed my envelope said that I hadn't ordered a pic with him (which I knew I had since I had the email that confirmed). So I had to speak to one of the arrangers there, she gave me the ticket to Ian's photosession without problems.
After that it was 17:15, which meant now I could do whatever I wanted since the convention didn't start until the following morning at 10 am. So I left my convention stuff in my room and headed to the train station to ask how I could travel to the Catedral de Barcelona. The information lady was nice, she showed me all the big places to visit and how I could head there =) So I bought a ticket and went to "Las Ramblas" which is like this huge street with vendors on both sides, kind of reminded me of Santiago in Chile. Old buildings, the cultural spots....wow, I miss home <3
Walked around in town, found the gigantic cathedral and saw it was cut off with metal bars. I asked a guard if the church was closed but he said that I could just go in through the little entrance on one side. There was going to be a concert at 9 pm if I wanted to stop by. My God, people are nice here!
I walked in through the side and wow, it was huge!! I took a lot of pictures (I'll show you some) and lit some candles (digital ones, which is very cool) also prayed....everything was just so great!
I continued walking, by now I think I could easily find everything in this station :) See I don't need so much time to adapt in a new town, I'm a born traveller.
My walk continued, I bought some goodies for my girls at home and then it was getting late so I headed back to the hotel. My room was kind of hot so I turned down the heat and took a long shower...it felt so great! Suddenly I realised that I hadn't eaten something since 7 pm and was in need of some iced tea, so I got dressed and went to the train station to buy some yogurt, water and some crackers. Finally in my huge bed, I gathered my evening snacks, put on a game show on tv and began my friday night all alone. I just had to call home, talk to my girls for a while before saying goodnight and getting ready to sleep.
My first day in Barcelona was officially over. Tomorrow would be a brand new day.
Although I was having a nerveous moment, I made it through...said bye to my family and headed for the direct bus into town.

Walked around in town, found the gigantic cathedral and saw it was cut off with metal bars. I asked a guard if the church was closed but he said that I could just go in through the little entrance on one side. There was going to be a concert at 9 pm if I wanted to stop by. My God, people are nice here!
I walked in through the side and wow, it was huge!! I took a lot of pictures (I'll show you some) and lit some candles (digital ones, which is very cool) also prayed....everything was just so great!
I continued walking, by now I think I could easily find everything in this station :) See I don't need so much time to adapt in a new town, I'm a born traveller.
My walk continued, I bought some goodies for my girls at home and then it was getting late so I headed back to the hotel. My room was kind of hot so I turned down the heat and took a long shower...it felt so great! Suddenly I realised that I hadn't eaten something since 7 pm and was in need of some iced tea, so I got dressed and went to the train station to buy some yogurt, water and some crackers. Finally in my huge bed, I gathered my evening snacks, put on a game show on tv and began my friday night all alone. I just had to call home, talk to my girls for a while before saying goodnight and getting ready to sleep.
My first day in Barcelona was officially over. Tomorrow would be a brand new day.
Valborg
"Sorry for party rocking" ehh no....just listening to music and my only two drinks were actually water and tea ;D
I began my day with a visit to the hospital, no I'm fine...a bit pissed though but nothing else. I had to check in at the endocrinologist office to ask something quite important, but I met 2 bitches in the reception. I almost lost my temper but remained calm...no use in getting mad, some people just aren't happy *rolls eyes* especially when they have to work half day on a day like this. Why open then? Whatever. I got myself a yogurt on my way out, since I was on my way to my workout :)
The sun was shining and it was a gorgeous day, no bitches were gonna ruin my day!!!!
I took a stroll and got to the gymn, quite more people than the other two days I've been there...oh well. During my workout, there was this guy looking at me through the mirror. When I met his eyes he smiled and showed off a bit, I just smiled and continued to my next round.
Suddenly he walked pass me in the hall and smiled again, I smiled too but didn't let his eyes intrude in my work zone *LOL*
Work out done, showered and pretty again (HAHA) I went home, picked up my new shades from appertiff at the post office :D Spent time with my girls, watched some "Hawaii 5-0" and fell asleep. Woke up an hour ago, but I'll head to bed soon...
Tomorrow I have some cleaning to do, my room can't look like a mess now.
Goodnight to you all!
This song is stuck in my head...LOL
