Paris

I told someone i'd try to blog during my trip, so here it is:

Paris is like in the movies. Old, beautiful, romantic and yet exciting. I've had busy days since i arrived (sunday) but today i rest.

It is a quarter to 8 in the evening and it is warm outside the internet café, cooler inside it but not cold, and on the street is a non-stop chatter of people passing by.

quick connection communication

Libraries are the best. As well as strong black tea with milk is the best.

I'm looking forward to move back to Göteborg though Reykjavík isn't that bad either. I'm looking forward to meet old friends, family and to have more things to choose from. I'm looking forward to spend lazy days in my mother's garden.

Happy First Day of Summer!

Yours,
Malva

The sun was shining in Göteborg today. I went for a walk and took some pictures, but the best one i took later while visiting Veronica. We drank tea, made popcorn and talked about men. Her one-room appartment is as cozy as one can be and when i am there i am reminded about purple, a colour i like but often forget.

The Snowball Effect

Everything is fine, i am alive and back in Göteborg for to weeks. Good to have internet connection. On the night of my arrival my mother showed me the funniest clip in a long time.

Enjoy!

Ja ja, i’m still alive. Shortly after the last post i went back to Iceland and continued my life from July by working a little, hanging out at home with Anne a lot and going out every now and then and dance on the chairs.
Then i met my boyfriend, snow came (and went), Óli son was born and the old woman in the house passed away.
Yesterday i missed home.
Today i didn’t. At least not very much.

the Gothenburgian shopping spree!

The city becomes prettier and prettier by each day. I would really like to live here, one day, but not now.
Today i went out of the house, took the tram and left the suburbs. And i bought records!

Here’s the list:
SLAGSMÅLSKLUBBEN – BOSS FOR LEADER because it is sweet and sour electronic music.
GARBAGE – VERSION 2.0 because each time i visit David (like yesterday) i demand that he plays them since i don’t have any records by them - until now, that is.
FRONT LINE ASSEMBLY – IMPLODE oh! Because i found this cd (ok, Andreas lent it to me) last week and it was love at first… hm. I have been listening to it every day since. It is the best record in the world these days.
FRONT LINE ASSEMBLY – NEURAL IMPLANT because this is also a very good record by fla.
TOM WAITS – REAL GONE because it is Tom Waits. Never bad. Crazy pirate jazz.
GUS GUS – THIS IS NORMAL because it makes me a bit happy and homesick. Or, eh… you know.
BLACK REBEL MOTORCYCLE CLUB – TAKE THEM ON YOUR OWN because it is blrmc (nice rock from New York, always good to have)

Yep, that’s about it. One step closer towards something!

Yesterday, before i got drunk and started listen to And One, i dyed my hair with black henna (without using other henna in advance). And it went fine! Instead of sun bleached dark golden brown hair it is now… well… some bluegreybrownish black with less significant greys. Almost like it was before but colder in hue.
It also feels thicker, but that could just as well be my imagination.

But it sure smells funny.
