It's now when I'm older that I find the comic kinda irritating.
To simply put it for you young ones, Veronica and Betty are two very different classed ladies. Betty is the blond one and she's from this working class family, and Veronica is the black haired upper class girl and gets pretty much everything she wants from her dad, neither less to say that money's no problem in her world.
I've always related to Betty because she's like me, easy going and she's working hard to get what she wants.
They both like Archie and Archie likes them both. What pisses me off is that he's dating both of them at the same time. Neither of them is fine with it, but they keep battling over him even though they're best friends.
I don't know what you think, but if a guy I like likes me back and my best friend, I'd have him make up his mind at some point. He can't keep dating us both when we clearly don't want to share him.
If it was me, I'd drop him almost right away, I don't want a man who can't make up his mind. And I'd like to know that he didn't have trouble picking me over some other girl. This guy clearly don't know who he wants, and I'm sorry but if you don't know if it's me you really want, I'd make it really easy for you and just take that option away from you.

 

 

I found a few cute & fun memes I wanted to share with you guys!

Hi guys! So there's something I've been thinking about a lot when it comes to make up and hairstyles. It's face shapes.
Some of you might be thinking: why on earth do I need to know what kind of face shape I have? It's because it will help you so you know what kind of hairstyles that will flatter you most and, of course it will help you with the makeup as well.
I have until recently believed that I had a rectangular face shape, but I found this website with better illustrations on how you can measure your face and to find out what shape you have. It's the best illustrations I've found yet.
Here's the link to the tutorial:

I found this fairly new korean pop song that kinda sticks with you, I really like their baseball jacket and jeans outfit in the video and I wanted to share it with you guys!
I have a black and white baseball jacket myself, but I was thinking about buying a pink one and pimping it like the ones they're wearing in the video. I don't really care if it's in fashion or not, I wear what I like whenever I want. I don't really see a point of following fashion trends that only stays for a month or two. 

 

I spent most of my day on the floor securing my wires and internet cable.
I'm still redecorating my room so most of my room is still in boxes. There's not much I can do at the moment since I'm waiting for IKEA to restock the mirror I want for my makeup table/section-thingamabob. And I'm looking for a new TV for my gaming corner. Without them I can't put up my shelf (I'll show you guys photos when I'm completed)
Meanwhile I found some stuff on ebay. I won the wig cheap, 50 SEK including shipping.

I really love this music video, I bet they didn't spend much making it. There's not much editing in it and it's just so simple, just her on a stool in the middle of the room. It's perfect because it makes you focus on the song and not so much of the video in it self.
And the dress is to die for. I'm going to make one of my own if I can find the time for it. I just don't know when I would wear it haha. Doesn't quite feel like the dress you go out shopping in.

If you're like me and having problem saving money for your vacation, a good tip is to exchange some money now and then and put it in a piggy bank of some sort. That way you can't spend it in your own country ;)

New game coming up! And with that I wanted to share with you one of my photos from deviantart.
The models name is Sofia and she's a very talented swedish cosplayer!

 

 

Heres a few things I've been thinking about buying lately!

I loved this movie as a child I used to walk around during recess and sing the songs for myself and dream about Cornelius and some kind of prince charming character to come and sweep me off my feet.. come to think of it it's quite silly but the songs are great.
I found the DVD out in stores and online, but I was suspicious since they never mentioned anything about the swedish dubb so I mailed the distributor and asked, as I suspected they've removed it. So there's no swedish Thumbelina dubb out on dvd yet.
I found it on youtube tho' enjoy~

 

What to think of before you go!
Something I didn't know about; the electric outlets looks different depending on where you go. Our swedish ones look totally different compared to the ones in England. So if you're bringing a computer or your phone and need to charge it, you need to get yourself an electric plug converter.
I bought mine at Arlanda airport, Swedish - English they look something like this and cost about 200SEK

 

If you're like me and rely on your phone and use it for practically everything. Alarm clock, maps, calculator, notes & internet you're fucked without one of these!

Getting around in London using public transportation
If you stay at a hotel that's pretty central, use the busses. I'm not kidding you, the undergrounds are terrifying during rush hours. There's so much people I swear you're going to lose your friends or family. It felt like this scene from Harry Potter, you really had to stand against the wall to let the people pass you.

 

 

I live in Stockholm so I know about rush hours, but this is ridiculous and terrifying at the same time.

A tip is to download a .pdf to your phone with the underground map. I have this app called iBooks and I've got both swedish and english underground maps in it. I like it, it makes you feel less like tourist since you're not walking around with that typical paper map ;)

 

 

Get yourself a oyster card! It works just like our SL-cards! If you've been to Stockholm and traveled by subways, it works just the same way. You put the card on this electric plate just like our Swedish ones.
I swear, if you're familiar with the trains in Stockholm, you'll feel right at home in London, looks the same, works the same.

There's one thing to keep in mind though, when you're leaving the station, make sure to have your oyster card ready! You need to put it on this electrical plate to get out too. It works the same way, it's just that you have to use the card as some sort of key to get in AND out! 

 

What's the price of this so called oyster card? It depends on how long you'll be staying and in which zones you'll be traveling within.
I never went and didn't plan to travel outside zone 2 and I wanted the oyster card to last a week (since that's how long we stayed), so for me it cost about £34 , that's about 374SEK, totally worth it. We managed to see pretty much everything we ever wanted to see because of this card. We went EVERYWHERE.
And trust me, I loved being on the bus, it was so much fun. And the busses come like every five minutes or less, unlike our busses. Sweden you have something to learn from English traffic.

 

My recommendations:
Primark!
If you want cheap and modern clothes go to Primark, I'm not kidding.
It's cheaper and way more interesting than H&M's clothes. And I'm totally going back there this spring just to buy me a new wardrobe!
I'll show you my loot in another post!

I'll be making another post just about the Harry Potter exhibition so stay tuned!

Hi guys, did you notice anything different?
I hope so! New design coming up! It's not 100% finished, but it's getting there.
A huge thanks to Magnus for helping me out!

I also wanted to share this picture with you guys!

Enjoy~
