The Sweater Weather TAG

Yes I have a youtube channel, and yes, you should definitely subscribe to it. I try my best to upload videos once a week or so, but in December I'm going to be doing Vlogmas, which means I'll be vlogging every day from the 1st to the 25th. Just thought I'd let you guys know !

The main focus of my past days have been writing my NaNoWriMo novel, which is pretty much sucking the life out of me. I find myself always thinking of ways to bend the plot or things to make my MC's personality more dimensional. I must say, writing a novel in a month isn't what's the challenge for me - killing my inner editor, who is screaming to go back a few chapters and look at that one dialogue or description - that's the challenge.
I don't know whether I'll be publishing it somewhere online for you guys to read. The answer is probably no, as I am quite protective over my writings and don't show them to any other than a few of my closest friends. Perhaps someday I'll let something see the daylight.
I realized this also counts as procrastinating, and I should probably get back to writing so I can go to sleep at human'o'clock.

Are you doing NaNo, or have you done it before? Share your opinions, experiences, tips etc. in the comments!

lo go mo

I had a lovely lunch with my dad at Logomo kitchen a couple of months back, and just completely forgot about uploading the pictures I quickly snapped while being there. The food was delicious, especially because I was super hungry! I highly recommend the place for lunch if you're in the area. I don't think it was horribly expensive for being a buffet with good food. I'm slightly bummed out about the fact that I forgot to take a picture of my food, haha!
I'm still going strong with my NaNoWriMo novel, which at the moment has reached the milestone of 30,000 words. I hope I'll be able to finish it, even though I have a lot of reading to do for exam weeks.
I hope you are all doing well and managing with the shift from summer to autumn!

mellan ett & noll

Foggy mornings are one of my favorite things to take pictures of. I just love the fact that everything looks like a ghost town. I can't even imagine what an actual abandoned town would look like in the hours of fogginess, probably haunting. The mint jumper is from the flea market, and I adore the retro feeling of it.

I discovered that writing about the good stuff is more painful than writing about the bad, weird huh? I guess that's why I haven't made any progress on my book lately... I need to feel inspired again, the question is: when will I?

sunset.

 Fall is called fall, because the leaves fall. Or at least that's my theory of the matter, not that it matters. I went out to take some pictures of the sunset, which wasn't as beautiful as usual, yet still beautiful. Tomorrow I'm taking pictures of a complete stranger. Quite a scary thought, but I'm honored that my teacher trusted me with the task, I suppose. Now listening to the new Arctic Monkeys album and I must say, I do like what I hear.

rather quiet.

 My neighborhood is almost too idyllic // lets try make it surreal.

Not much has happened this week, it's been rather quiet I must say.
I live to write and I've written more than usual lately.
I'm taking this blog into a new direction.

a breather

Spent the day at one of my favorite cafe with some of my favorite people. Had a lovely time drinking rediculous amounts of coffee and talking about everything and anything. Should probably make a habit of this, as you sort of forget to take a breather when life gets hectic. There's always time for coffee... Anyways, I just really want to go to bed right now, so I won't write a massive amount today. I think the pictures speak for themselves. I'm wearing a beige cardigan which is 2nd hand and a dress from asos, if you're wondering. 

Tomorrow is my gig... I'm nervous //

postcards from far away

Lately I've been having a lot of wishes, small and big ones. I thought some of you might be interested in reading a post like this, and I hope it doesn't make me seem like a superficial person. Then again, most of my wishes aren't found to be materialistic or wanting certain things, so I guess that rules out the judgement.



Traveling.

I know I just came back from my exchange year, but I'm hungry to see new streets, turn new corners and watch a whole new world around me again. It's been a while, and I'm getting bored of being settled. I've been browsing different cities, what to do, what to see and such: Paris, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Stockholm. I wish I could just pack my bag with clothes and a camera and leave, but I guess it's not that simple. Especially not now that school's started again.

Anyway, me and some friends have been planning a trip to London or somewhere for New Years. Hoping that it'll happen, it is something I'm greatly looking forward to.




Then, maybe something classified more as aspiring rather than wishing.
Dancing.

I want to be good at it again. I feel like it's something I left behind a bit too hasty, and I find myself regretting it now that my skills have gone down noticeably. Right now I'm doing Contemporary and Lyrical Hiphop at the same dance school I used to go to. Funny enough, the owner of the place remembered me. Made me feel sentimental in a way, and wanting to do my best this semester. Who knows, maybe I'll be dancing in the front rows at this years exhibition?
