Last winter

by

Lund last year

Been working 4 days after xmas and still I’m happy about the long weekend. Must do something about this tiredness soon..
Weird weather this, haven’t seen snow yet and it feels more like the spring is starting. In january.

But what helps right now is this newly started playlist of mine!
som ett lyckligt slut på sommaren, men med ton av nu-är-det-slut (as a happy ending of the summer, but with tone of now-is-the-end)
I got that feeling from one of the songs tobias sent me, and felt this is a playlist that must be built.
Even if the summer is far away, this is playlist that can play with that feeling. It should sound like it’s August and
the last summer festival is over, and everything feels good though it’s sad that everything is over.
Each song is picked carefully to fit. Each song needs to make me do a silly smile while walking outside in the stormy rainy weather.

Please come with suggestions to this playlist! I’m going to spend some time on this one, making it ready for the summer.
You’re welcome to listen/watch on the progress.

What’s happening

by

I’m spending my days working, playing Carcassonne with my lovely team during lunch. Hanging out with Gustav and gang in Lund, and Amanda and Erik in Malmö during the weekends. That’s how the last weeks have looked.
And I’m struggling to improve my design on the ongoing project and ending up so tired each day.
The holidays will hopefully make me good.

Last week I felt a need to do something out of the ordinary since my life felt a bit… linear.
Sunday evening I bought tickets to the last minute flight to stockholm and I was on my way.
Met up with Kajsa and we went to the Real Estate gig (the gig was… OK)
Walked around in a bit warmer Stockholm (without this freakin’ storm in Skåne) and then
went to sleep at my parents and slept for 3 hours, then took the earliest train to Malmö and was
back at work 10:00. Wasn’t tired until the last hour and then collapsed.
Definitely a good way to spend the sunday.

More than two weeks ago I moved to Malmö from Lund. Bit of a weird change.
I’m sharing an apartment with a really nice guy and forcing my Harry Potter obsession on him.
Talking about Harry Potter, I asked my facebook: “what would a designer in the wizarding world work with?“,
obviously trying to see myself working with something in the wizarding world without electricity.
Discussion started and two weeks later Max, a freelance designer for ustwo™, shows up in the Malmö studio and
gives me this perfect xmas gift as the answer to my question! (to design posters, catalogues, programmes, package design etc)

It includes a lot of great stuff for the harry potter fan, the letter from Hogwarts, the marauders map,
a catalogue from Borgin and Burkes, a lot of stickers, candy boxes from Honeydukes, quidditch world cup programme,
weasley’s wizard wheezes product catalogue, behind the scenes photos and lovely concept art.
This is was a perfect gift for times like these when I’m really in Harry Potter mood.
I’ve just finished Goblet of fire audiobook and listenig to the Remus Lupins.
It’s really nice to go through the books again, cause it’s been some years since I read them.
Though it’s quite sad I don’t remember the scenes how I first saw them. Replaced my the scenes in the films unfortunately.

There’s a storm coming

Eventually she decided to come down to Lund again. And it’s been great seeing her.

We made Butterbeer Latte (It had a great magical taste. But it was a bit too much for me..)
This is the girl who forced me to read Harry Potter. And now they’re calling me Harry Potter at work,
that’s how much of my life it got. I guess I tend to talk about it quite a lot at work…

The first polaroids

by

 
A month ago a friend of mine, found me a polaroid camera on a flee market in Lund.
I didn’t use it until now. The result was great! I’m just wondering why the top part of the images got
that golden/shiny background, like the ink was peeled off… Need to look into that.
But it’s quite charming in a way.

what mist sounds like Stars – Your Ex-Lover Is Dead (just bear with the intro. 30sec)

Frida in Lund, once again.

Looks like she belongs in Slytherin. totally.

As usual it’s been great having Frida here. We’ve been walking around in Lund, photographing,
experimenting with my new polaroid camera (I’ll upload the images in the next post),
going to lovely cafés and watching Potter DH part 2, Blue Valentine, and ofc some Mighty Boosh.
Pretty much what we usually do.
