Books books books!

While I've been here I've read a couple really good books that I would like to recommend to those who read.

Of mice and men - for those who chooses not to read a book because of the size. This is a 100-page book that just captured me within the first few pages. A really sad story about two guys - one of them.. mentally challenged.
Harry Potter - I'm now at the 5th one and I can't believe that I didn't start reading them earlier. Awesomely good!
Malcolm X - In the progress of reading it :P As far as I've read, it's pretty good.

All you get for today. I'm a lazy.. lazy.. lazy girl :(

February 12th. 2011

Yesterday I went to the movies with Hannah L. to watch Just Go With It, and I highly recommend you guys to go watch it, it is frickin hilarious! Loved it. Before that, we'd gone shopping in fort wayne and I decided to buy some birthday presents for myself as my family got me money for my bday. I got a trenchcoat, two basic tees and a knitted shirtish thing, which I will upload pictures of later. Then I went to Hannah's house to stay the night, and when I went downstairs to her bedroom I saw "Happy birthday!" On the guestbed. It was so sweet! Then we had our crazy time and talked until 3 o'clock in the morning. When I woke up she wished me a happy birthday and gave me really awesome presents. Hannah if you read this, thank u so much again! (A purse from H&M, Baking stuff and nusspli from Germany.. Drooling!)

Then we watched Pirates of the Caribbean, and at 3pm my hostparents and sis came to pick me up. They had kept our plans for the day a secret and I was excited all day. For a good reason! They took me to one of my favorite restaurants. "Takaoka". It's like watching a cool cooking show live. So awesome. (some pics of the food and the chef. He was mexican and he thought I looked mixed. NICE :D!!! and also because it was my birthday, the servants sang a birthdaysong and gave me sorbet. yummy!)

And afterwards we went to go bowling.. I sucked as usual, but it was really fun!

.. Then we got home at about midnight and my hostfamily gave me a birthday present. A digital picture frame with the wi-fi stuff, so when I go back to Denmark, they can send me pictures directly to my frame so I can see them. Is that just awesome or not? Thanks you guys. I love you!

Working out

I figured it was time for me to set some goals to keep me going while I'm here. I've been soompi'ing alot lately and fell over a topic about jump-roping yesterday and I decided to make some goals for myself. (not only workout-goals)

1. Start of by doing 1000 jumps a day and slowly add more jumps - hit 5000 jumps.
(am now on 2000 a day. will update you at every thousand.)
2. Fill out a sheet of A4 paper with jump-counts. One line counts for 100 jumps - so basically fill out the sheet with lines for every 100 jumps I do. Time limit: 2 months.
(am now at 3200 jumps)
3. When people comment me, I will say thank you instead of "myeah... I guess it's not too bad" or something like that.
4. I will be the nicer me, as much as I can ;)


That's it for now. I have other goals, such as volunteering-work and stuff like that, but it's too cold outside for me, so I'll add that on in spring or something.
Wish me luck!
XOXO

Superbowl

I've spent almost all day watching superbowl and even though the team I cheered for lost, I had lotsa fun. Really going to miss watching football, hopefully I will be able to watch it when I come back to Denmark. Calories was not to be count today and I will continue dieting. An update from last diet-post - I've lost 3 pounds (1,5kg) and am now down at 99 pounds, and that by using www.livestrong.com. I've used my Iphone for a long time to count calories, but as I don't have access to my phone while at school, I found this website to type in my calories. It is really good, and it is free too! I've been using websites like madlog.dk and so on, but those cost money after a while (so not going to pay money for that!.. waste!)
I really like to bake, and that makes it only harder to go on diet, but I have a little trick - and it might not be useful to some people. But I bake as much as I want, and then I either make people eat it for me or I give it to people as a gift. You will make other people happier and yourself too. I'm gonna continue soompi'ing now, so cu next time!

XOXO.

Chris Brown & Chipmunk, baby!

I've been so very sad that I don't have my homey wi-fi here, and that means I lack new music. Anyways! I heard about this song from my friend and I just love it. It's enough to satisfy my music-craving for now. I listen to music on the television instead of my usual ways, and then I just write down the titles so I will remember them when I come home.


..other good songs I've heard, Nelly & Kelly - Gone, The Band Perry - If I die young, Keri Hilson - Pretty Girl Rock. (weird lyrics! but nice beat)

Jessie J - Who u are
