BE:Inspired

Feel Inspired

Guys, good news. IM INSPIRED!!! Im back from 5days weekendbreak in London, Ive seen it all - and Im oficially back on track. Cambden, Angels, Notting Hill are just few of the places that really inspired me. The colors, the streets that were customemade for a goth, a punk, a 50s girl.. U name it. Pictures coming up, just needed to share my enthusiasm before heading of to work. Aircondition killed me again ofcourse, damn planes!!! But yeah, Im ready for a new project.. Whos up for it?

Lack of satisfaction

I keep finding myself always searching for more. Like Im not satisfied with what I have.. Dont get me wrong, I love every person that has been around me the last years.. I mean carrierwise, I mean with travelling, I mean with meeting new people. I just keep wanting more. Is it a bad thing? Or is it normal? I mean I LOVE my job.. every part of it!! But Im always looking for a way to learn more and grow everyday. I know thats a good thing though but it could be nice just want to relax for a second. :)
G, why cant we just be one of those "staying at home, enjoying my hot chocolate under a blanket" girls ?? Whatever happened to enjoying the everyday NORMAL life. I cant.. I need excitement, I need daily impulses of creativity, new ways of thinking and inspiration...

Tell me when and where in Oslo, And Ill be there.

Tillat deg å kjenne at du er akkurat der det er meningen at du skal være. Tillat deg ikke å glemme de tillitsfulle, grenseløse muligheter du og alle andre er født med. Må du bruke de gaver du har mottatt og formidle den kjærlighet som er gitt deg. Må du være fornøyd med deg selv akkurat slik du er! La denne kunnskapen synke inn i hele din kropp og tillat den å få synge, danse, beundre og elske! Den finnes for alle og enhver"

Får en til å tenke gjør det ikke ? :)

Looking in the sky I could see your face
And I know right where I fit in
Take me, make me, you know that I'll always be in love
With you .. Right til the end

Tonight I'm gonna find a way to make it without you
I'm gonna hold on to the times we had

Im leaving my crib with a smile on my face! A new start is waiting, no bitter memories, its just a place filled with love, good food & pure joy !! Good aura left to the next person moving in !! :)

On that very same day..

On this very day last year I had the biggest smile on my face, I was the luckiest girl in the world.. On this very day, I moved in with a fantastic man!! And on this very day today, Im packing my things to moved out from a empty apartment that once made me laugh LOUD.. Life is so absurd isnt it.. Whats the ods of it being the same day with complete contrasts?

Anyways.. Congrats with what coulve been a complete fantastic year <3

What do u wish for??

Right now somebodys thinking..

Oh how I wish I could be off work tomorrow.. I would love that new jacket.. What if I travelled to Barcelona tomorrow.. A burger.. A icecold glass of cava in my hand.. That superfresh purse i saw in the window the other day.. But me.. all i wish for right now is honesty!!

Have you ever had that feeling?

One day you wake up.. the sun is shining, its cold enough to put on your new fresh coat that you bought from the new fall collection, its tempting to put on glows.. You dedicate 2 hours of your afternoon just to go to IKEA to buy candlelights.. Fall is here. Isnt it fantastic? Its that middleseason feeling, the temptation of having a girlsnight at home with wine and candlelights.. the temptation of spending a saturdaynight home with that very special. Summer is over, no more rushing to the park, no more long hours outside after work. PURE satisfaction of just chillin..

But just before you get to close your eyes and dream about theese very moments, winter is here. It embraces every bone in your body, and nomatter how warm you dress.. its still cold. In this exact moment I open my eyes in a desperate confusion. What the hell am I doing in Norway?

What about HANS AND GRETHE!! hahahaha..

The blonde explorer!!

To put it like this.. When ur fedup with the nightlife in Oslo, and had a shitty week - u cant really say no to a african confirmation party invitation. I wanted something new, and I got it served 10 minutes outside of Oslo. What a colorful & fun night.

I`ve actually never felt as blonde as i did yesterday.. 200 africans, 100 different national dresses, african food, african rhytmn and ofcourse Mia`s black humor inbetween it all! haha. Actually when we arrived the location, I had to ask my friend Denis "Is this a concert??" and he said "No Mia its my family" hahahha.. What a contrast from my confirmation celebration. 15 of us.. one table in our cute little livingroom back in Mo i Rana.. Wow imagine all the presents!

Well guys.. I recomend you to always try something new if it comes your way!! Its never scary to stand out in a crowd like I did yesterday.. Its pure excitement!! :)

True friendship really does last longer than superglu!!

I went through some old posts from when I lived in Barcelona and found something I said two years ago that still makes so much sence to me

"With good friends and a open mind you will always find a sence of beloning nomatter where you are in the world. The path is long, and there is always a bump or two in the road making youre everyday more complicated, but the further you keep on pushing the mud, the more happy you get for actually getting further in life"

So true.. I cant thank my friends enough for being who they are.. And for being so patient with me! There is no better feeling than to empty my head to my besties.. or to cry.. or to laugh so much that my stomach hurts!! I mean all of u.. But I have to mention the very special ones that sees me on a daily basis & listens to my crap day in and day out.. MUM!! Guro, Andre, Espen, Eva, Maja, Lisa (my phonecrew Ingrid, Lise and Nina..haha) & ofcourse the fantastic supercrew Hilde, Kine & Roger++!!! <3
Its amazing how big my smile can get just by being around all of you.. eventhough my entire body hurts on the inside (sometimes)



LOTS OF LOVE TO ALL OF U!!

Dont cry because its over... Smile because it happened!!!

Good hairdays!

Finally.. The great and talented Maja Silfvenius is returning to Norway. Not only does she do fantastic hair, she can color your face in the most fantastic ways. Great Cv behind her with with names that would flip you off the chair! :)
If your in need of a makeupartist/hairdresser please let me know. Ill give you her contactinformation. Cheers and enjoy the sunny day!

One end.. A new start

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no, I'm not breaking

I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going

Still love u

X Mia

Dead Norwegians at Kate Nash

How would you describe a typpical Norwegian? Ill help you get started..
1.Cold
2.Closed
3.Weekend alcoholics
4.Dont talk to you when sober.. when drunk they`ll be happy to do u!
Ahh.. It makes me sick. G and I went to a concert yesterday. The dead Norwegians were standing straight up, faced towards the stage, hands in their pockets and SILENCEEEE.. not even as much as a cheer for poor Kate Nash!! She even said it " I couldve whispered here".. Time passed by and my second drink finished. I raised my hand and screamed out.. WOOOHOOOO.. I mean, IT WAS A CONCERT FOR GODS SAKE!!! What happened?; a guy turned around "can u shut the fuck up". hahahaha.. G and I were in complete shock. We went to the back of the place, listened to one more song and left. Thats it.. We are moving to another place where people inspire & suprising things happens everyday. But where? Suggestions?

Who ever said dancing made u go crazy..were right

Okey, I have been on and on about the shitty nightlife in Oslo.. but guys, I have happy news to share with you, The princess of Norway, Miss Mia has discovered another "Juicy" concept with "fresh out of the box" HIP HOP AND R&B. Ladies and Gents, we are talking FUGAZZI. The place to be on a shitty saturday when all you want to do is dance dance dance. No time for flirting, no time for drinking. The music just drives u in on the dancefloor and makes u SHAKE THAT ASS!! Check it out next weekend. They sure blew me away

Realitycheck !!

Weekendbreak.. holliday.. nothing better!..
Meeting new fantastic people, someone that inspires u, someone that makes u think differently about things or somebody that just give a u everlasting laugh.. Ive met those special someones, and getting back to reality is hard..

U see.. back home its G and I that really share a 100 % the same humor, the same thoughts and the same wishes, but over there in the other world we met 20 persons that were just like us. So when u come home from a trip like that, its kindof hard to find the inspiration u need to be satisfied.. dont u think?

Have u just dealt with the fact that u live a NORMAL everyday life when u want more excitement? Or are u living in one city when u actually want to live in another? Or did u just do it?? If u did.. please tell me how :)

The Gymnast is BACK

Yupp guys,thats right.. Im back.. for the 4th time this year!
On the run on my way to the gym.. Swimming today! The reason why Im blogging this is to hear if somebody out there has a good 1hour plan to use at the gym.. I would love to hear from all of u that has something to share! Some inspiration never hurts.

ON THE RUN GUYS!!

Have a great day

Prada love..

Give me a new Prada and Ill love u forever !!

Soon baby soon

Makes me wanna...

Visiting Elins house always gives me 1 million new ideas on how to COPY her creativity and put it in my own home.. If I only could.. 24 square meters doesnt really give me the space I need to play around.. its not enough walls either! haha.. anyways, check out some of the inspiration pics I captured.. If any of you have cool ideas or creative stuff put into ur home; feel free to share it with me! Im moving soon.. about to go wild :)

Barcelona memories

Two years has past so fast.. 3 jobs, plenty of new friends, plenty of old friends has moved, 20 pair of new shoes, a whole new wardrobe, X country visited.. but it took incredible 2 years to finally meet up with all my fantastic Barcelona familymembers.
Thursday night, one week ago.. Wine, gossip and endless catchup.

We live in the same city...but yet.. 2 years. It made me think about how selfish we all are with our time. Busy here, busy there.. Its hard to belive I`ve been that busy to prioritise qualitytime with good old Bcn-family for the last 24 months. This will change my friends.. The truth is; I work 8 hours a day and go home or to the gym.. Atleast that what I used to do. From now on - PURE CATCHING UP WITH EVERYBODY worth catching up with. Just give me time,place and date.. Ill be there
Xx

Everybody has a twinsister somewhere..

I was stunned to find my twinsister online..


I was stunned to find my twinsister online..

Fashion against Aids

Not only was it chaos.. it was sooo much fun being in the chaos!
H&M started their annualy "Fashion Against Aids" campaign today and this year they are going for the complete Festival look.
I am a lucky buyer of a tent and a sleepingbag for the sweet price of only 248,- . Its a must have for my campingplans for my 25`th birthday :)
Other than that they had fantastic tops, dresses and a fabolous jeans shorts!!

GO and have a LOOK! I think things will sell out very fast.

Secret..

I have a big secret..
I cant wait to scream it out...

I have a confession..
Dont ever know if I will say it loud..

I love my little secrets..
But i know u are dying to know what their about..

If ur friend or if ur family, doesnt always matter..
Secrets can be kept, to the end of our lifes..

congrats to me

Chatroulette - Fun for some but dangerous?

I had my first try on saturday.. what a program..
What do expect to see when you go in to a chat program?

www.Chatrouelette.com is basically webcameras around the world connected to eachother. If you dont like what you see, you can click on "NEXT" and a new webcam pops up.
The first thing that met me was a man mastrubating.. the second was a girl shaking her boobs, the third was a couple having sex and THEN the 4th was A NORMAL BOY!!I dont think a lot of people expects to see only naked people when they log on to a random chatprogram. Atleast; I didnt.. Its scary how this program doesnt have sensor at all.. and what scares me even more is all the children connected to this program. Today I saw 2 girls around 10 years old laughing infront of the camera. I can only imagine what camera was before me.

Parents, you need to watch out!! I can assure you that 30 % of the men mastrubating in this program, doesnt click "next" when its your child on the cam..

Theese two men started waving their hands at me once my camera appeared on their computer. Its first of all DISCUSTING AND HOW ON EARTH DO THEY THINK THAT PEOPLE FIND THIS ATTRACTIVE??? The picture below is cropped, meaning he showed everything.. horrible..

No smoking WEEK 3

Wow.. time flyes by! Three weeks without smoking.. Here are the positiv effects
-Money saved
-I can clearly see a different in my skin. I look way more healthy
-My clothes smell fresh & so does my apartment
-I feel the nasty smell when people has smoked. I am not kidding when I say that they look like a ashtrey!!

I am so proud and happy that I have stopped.. and its going really well!! KNOCK ON WOOD!! My mum has even stopped, after XXXXXX years of smoking. And its going so good for her aswell.. Does it run in the blood?? Good at stopping to smoke? haha

The other day I was at a birthayparty and Lino joined me... and we said hello to a friend of a friend.. he acted weird towards Lino and just walked away after we said HEllo how are u? ... It turned out , he doesnt speak english!! Isnt that very weird?? To be 25, live in norway and you dont talk english? I dont understand it.. ??

Mountainside calling folks. Have a good one

No smoking DAY 10.

Gosh how time flyes.. ten days without sigarettes.
hmh...actually, to be honest with u, the addiction is completely gone. I am more happy,more energetic, I dont really think about sigarettes and I definitly dont think about smoking one.Last weekends party was a little tough, other than that - I havent felt anything at all. Lets see how this weekend turns out!

I think the most important thing in a stop-smoking process is to be hard and honest with yourself. 1 drag is not worth it, and it might get you to fall back. Replace the siggis with other things.. like the gym.. and if it is food the first week, then so be it :)

HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND :)

The norwegiean mountainhikers!!!

So many people think that Oslo is just full of trash, big buildings & malls. But this says more about you than what it says about Oslo. As in every city in the world, we have to go a littlebit out from the center inorder to breath fresh air and to see green all around us. (except from Central Park New York ofcourse)
We are so priveliged in Oslo to live a 20 minute busride from the mountainside. Last sunday I brought my faithful mountainlover friends to Frognersetern. We walked through the woods, down to Sognsvann and home.All in all; a two and a half hour walk. Fantastic and recomended!!

The ashes dosent stop us from mingeling with sikhs

Good morning everyone & happy new years

It was so sad.. but in hope of having some fun the girls met in town saturday afternoon to have a nice lunch and catch up. AND GUESS WHAT WE MET ON OUR WAY; whats the ods?? A SIKH CELEBRATION!
happy newyears bobs and jas... oh how we wish that it was you guys in this photo! hehe..

good evening godtfolk
I got good news for u today
1# im blogging from my phone for the first time in my life. Yupp thats true, new phone = more technologic skills!
2# hm opened a new store today in mo i rana.... And i guess this is one of days where my statement 'nothing to do there' proves me right. Check out the link to see how the opening went;) http://www.ranablad.no/nyheter/article5083274.ece

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. M.i.a partners

What a sad ending to something that should`ve been a perfectt weekend!!
Bobbysox and Jasattack from Birmingham didnt show up afterall because of the ashes that has covered europe as a dark blanket. Monica got here before the vulcano, but had to leave on saturday instead of sunday with train. SO we ended up with no supriseparty & not so much fun. But I made the best out of the situation..

And guess what. Today I am day 8 without smoking. Not as much as a little drag. I am very proud. For those of you who wonder how I went through a party & a winenight without a sigarett, I can tell you that it wasent easy. But I have made a promise to myself and Im not breaking it. Besides.. Where is the glam with smelling like a ashtray?? we have enough ashes around the world now peeps! Lets not contribute to more !! :) Have a good day folks, and lets hope the dark skyes doesnt come to Norway.

The M.I.A`s
