Hello, guys.

I didn't find my jumper today, and I got so annoyed.

Like, angry.

Part of this magic is that the flat is still up on the real estate website, and we're waiting for the buyer. 

So I still don't have proper storage space for my clothes. 

And today I got so inhumanly annoyed, and I really didn't enjoy it.

So.

Big clothes clear out coming up. 

I realized rummaging through everything today, looking for my jumper, that I don't like half of what I have and another 25% just either is too big too small or too something.

An easy deduction and voila - I actually want to keep a quarter of everything.

And this is just clothes.

Too much STUFF clouding my space.

Even if I don't have it in my immediate surroundings, it's still there.

The energy of too.many.things.

I once told my dad that I'll want space and order to surround me once I feel ordered on the inside.

And I guess we're here then..

Just this unstructured mess and disorder annoyed me so so much.

I never gave a crap about anything like that.

So yay! 

P for Progress.

With love.

wednesday

Bye bye, Wednesday!

Hello, Thursday.

I'm watching this brilliant BBC documentary called The Code.

It's all up on YouTube and if you have some time you should most definitely check it out.

Really really awesome.

I love it when the "serious" things are spun so they appear much more tangible.

Like this science theory.

Awesome.

I'm a sucker for shapes and structures.

So very excellent.

Everything follows a path.

Everything.

One thing after another after another after another after another after another after another after another after another after another after another 

Cause and effect.

Cause and effect.

Cause and effect.

Chaos is just cause and effect.

All I'm saying is.

Sometimes we are faced with situations which just are.

And we can do this or do that, some things just are.

All we can do is all we can do.

And the rest will be, or will not be.

Take comfort in the fact that this apparent chaos is just cause and effect.

Let's just drown everything in love and gentleness and kindness.

Let's see how this works.

Keep your thoughts in check.

Love to all of you.

As always.

Yours truly.

We passed 20,000 views as I was away!
I'm so pleased.

This has really been coming from last September when I started blogging much more.
So a year with you LOVELY people!
Thank you so so much, for dropping by and reading my ramblings.
Seriously, I kinda love you all for it.

I hope I still provide something good to read and you keep finding something interesting, and yourself, in the process of it all.





So.
This post about "See yourself succeed".

I've been going through some really stupidly tricky times, and today kind of ended up being the emotional culmination of it all.
But it's much better now, and after a long-long chat with A. and dad+Mrs I'm firmly back on planet Earth, roots, soil, and all.
And I'm feeling good.

I've also been given/given myself some homework.
And this time around the homework is "See myself succeed".

And I promise, I mean, I really promise you, I do not do enough of this.
So this is my homework.

Start seeing myself succeed.
Spend some time contemplating what I really desire.
And get some movement going.

Create your own magic.

With love.

STHLM

Here
we
go
..
again.

I fly today at 6pm, and then only the Lol-god knows what will happen next.
A. and I are back on Friday - I'm in STHLM till Friday, she's in TLN till next Tuesday.

I'm currently eating watermelon and packing. After having disappeared into the Scaffolding concert madness this comes at a ridiculously appropriate moment.

BRING
ON
ADVENTURES
With love.
Mayhem.
Of Chaos and Mayhem.

30

This shall be my 30th birthday.
Okay, planned very far in advance, but hey, why not.

I think this would go down a treat.
Arm the place with vodka jelly and jesus me, the stuff that would happen.
Code words could be: chaos, mayhem, lolcats.

Birthdays.

Reblogging these because they warm my heart.
And because I'm so going to visit STHLM very soon.

The other day, A. mentioned something about her "happy place".
And I decided that one of my very prominent happy places was following A. around the globe. Whether it's eating cheese in Zürich, or sitting on her floor in Basel, or sauna time in HEL, or crashing on her sofa, reciting soft porn and building furniture in STHLM.
Adventures, man. That's my happy place.

I MISS THEATRE

I miss you, I say! Seriously!
I miss theatre so much.

This little outburst was brought on by this circus show I just watched (not live, TV broadcast), by this Canadian troupe called Cirque Eloize. Their show "Rain" - Comme une pluie dans tes yeux.

http://www.cirque-eloize.com/
I think they are worth checking out.

The show had this amazing sense of nostalgia about it. It's not usually my thing, but it worked so so well. This bittersweet circus cabaret with the most amazing acrobats, some songs, some silly bits, not with clowns but exceedingly charming people.
Just, I love circus. I think it just holds what I hold dear - the playful nature. I don't like animal circus, nor do I think it's necessary.
Circus is about grown-ups doing what we should be doing - marveling at the world, and responding to it. The laughter, the amazement, and the music, and just, all of it in this big glorious nostalgic French pie. Superb.
And just silly enough.
And I liked how simple it was. I'm a big fan of Cirque du Soleil but their stuff is just so grand in scale (I don't know a better word for describing this). Eloize's stuff was so much more low-key, and simple, like I could go away from seeing their show and do some of it myself - just have fun.

Awesome. Truly awesome.
Thanks, ETV, for broadcasting good things.
