Much Love,
Samira.

Traditions

Just came home after watching Eclipse and man I'm glad that I watched it. It was great! The fight scenes were brilliant and each and every Jacob scene was gorgois and he is *-*
Not disappointed at all actually :O hm...this is strange. Well..I've never been a fan of Kristen as Bella =/ but that's just me.
It's a tradition to watch the Twilight saga movies with Mia. And after watching the movie, take a pic with the poster. It keeps the memory of the "whaaat this movie was goood" feeling fresh ^^
I realised that this might be my last movie in Sweden, which I'm really hoping cause that would mean that I got accepted. *sigh* I have to, I need to, I must!! ><
I'm not sure if she'd like me t post her pic so I'm gonna post my solo. Please excuse my hideous hair and overly happy face. I always turn out SUPER happy in pics o.0 This was the least happy/excited one I had.


(And yes I'm kinda wishing I was Bella here. Hush up >.>)

All in all, I'm happy.

Collection of Memories

Sometimes (very few times), I get in "cleaning mode". So today, I cleaned the living room, the kitchen, my room and the entrance hall. And when I say clean, I mean clean. Feels good.
When I was taking out the things I put under my bed, I found one of my oldest and most precious thing, my card collection. Since I was 9, I have been collecting birthday cards, Christmas cards, friendship cards, etc.
It seems like people don't care much about cards these days. Hallmark cards can still make my day because the message included is so sweet and meaningful! I decided to take pics of some of my favourite ones and post them 'cause they are simply adorable! <3











My favourite

And since Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows trailer was released, Hedwig wants to say hello.

Processing

Everything around me seems to be in process mode right now.I'm waiting for so many things to happen; most of which determine my future life steps. Kinda frustrating if you ask me. I try to distract myself from all that. Very difficult!
One excellent way to distract myself from other things is to make a to do list of the things I've always wanted to do and have been too lazy to bother in the past. I want to my ideal-self. There's a long way to go but I could start step by step and see where that takes me =)
First thing, music.
I listen to SO many different artists but I was starting to go in that direction where ppl only listen to the latest hits. I don't want to be that person! I didn't know how to dig for good artists and find something that suits my taste. So I downloaded Spotify and Last.fm. Great starters!! I have found so many WONDERFUL artists! I have been missing out on so much!!
My current fav being Ladyhawke. She is so cool!
One of her most famous song:

This way I can polish on my French as well! ^^

Another wonderful distraction is ofc, shopping! :D
There has been SO much sale lately that I couldn't just ignore it! :O
Flooooraaal patterns <3

Now, I shall go for another distraction, that being exercising.
