Could Have, Would Have, Should Have!

Could Have, Would Have, Should Have! 

I just found out how much money I’ve spent over the last month ( but to be fair, I’ve been in Paris ). Ealier I was too afraid to go to the bank and check, but today I pulled myself together and went there. I was right in my fear, though! New shoes, new clothes, new bags and a trip to Paris does not go easy on the account. And christmas comming up does not make it any better! If I think my total spending from June to now, it makes me want to kill mysef! To think of the money that I could have saved fore when I move away from home... Well... Could have, Would have, Should have... It’s all to late now... 

    Too cheer up myself I toke the afternoon off and looked at my favorite websites (Some with vintage furniture, some new designs, some inspiration on new designs and article’s, others with funny little things) 

    Then I found these...

44$ a piece

    I was thinking about 15-20 custum made ones... With texts/word like: Suit up!, Stars, Kiss me, Eat me!, Sugar, Love, You, London, Noël... ( I really need to learn how not to shop! )

Little White Bubbles

Little White Bubbles

Today I’m home from school with a sore throat. I have been reading on what a blog is, how to blog, what to blog about and... 

Then I really felt like visiting my favorite website. Here I found a long lost object I saw the first time I visited Etsy. The little, strange white... Person? Anyway... I just wanted to show it to you! 

The simple onces...

More Added... 

(And a pair)

I wish I could show you all of them, but these are the onces I picked out. I really couldn’t decide, so I just took some random pieces. You can find the artist here...

But I guess I should warn you! You can’t stop looking and you definitely can not find JUST one favorite! But show them to me anyway!

My Home...

My home... 

... Is going to be amazing! Yes it is gonna be simpel and very white, but it will be legen-wait for it-dary! It going to be Urban, City, Modern, Antique, Clean, Vintage & Neat. I don’t know how I am gonna get it all in there, but I better figure it out! I mean who wouldn’t want to have a phonobooth as a shower, skateboards as shelfs or a glowbulb chanderlier?!

   I have some crazy ideas and I know not all of them is going to live, and that I’ll probably forget half of them. I’ve also bought a ton of stuff for my apartment which half of it will never be used or will break even before I get to move out... But that’s how I keep up with home. With the idea of some day getting my own place, my own home. 

   I’ve asked him if he wanted to move with me. Move away. On our own. Make me the happiest girl  on earth! I do not care for big rooms, great design, huge flat screens or if we’ll be short on money... 

   I know it would be a bad idea, but oh the temptation! Not to have too wait another year or two. I am playing with the dream in my head and boy does it look good. We could have wooden floors, low bed to start with and work the way to a flat in Copehagen... 

Oh I wish to do so...

What we Never Got To Do

What We Never Got To Do

One thing that really boms me out was that we didn’t get to explore Paris in the night. There are supposed to be the most fantastic street markets, with crêpes, lights, music... 

   The last night we got too see a little bit of this, but this just made me want it more! We also found the bedst streets the last days (FYI: I love the little streets, those have the unique shops). 

   I would love to walk under the colored lightbulbs, buy butter crêpes, having a warm arm around me and looking at the stupid little shop with nothing but crappy sourvenirs. I wan’t to find new places, new streets, discover new foods, find more art drawings, living at the top of Montmartre, watch the city some more, learning more french or maybe I just wan’t to travel. 

  Next time I go to Paris I have to get up the Eiffel Tower, to have a go in the big Paris Wheel, visit the little islands near Île de la Cité, go on the colorfull rides in the markeds, really go through the Latin Quatier and... I want my adventure back!

   

     I wanna walk the streets of Paris again

P.s I've now had over 100 views!

My last day...

My Last Day...

... in Paris

This is really sad. We leave tomorrow and I've fallin' in love... With the streets, the view, the people, the food, the lights in the night, the atmosphere and the feeling. It's like another world down here. A world of no trouble. But I know it wouldn't last, so I might as well go now, before this picture shatters.

    This last day we send by running around Paris almost panicking. No... We spend it going the best places. We went to see Galerie Vivienne, where I bougth a vase and we were in safety of the rain. Insted of making a right turn at Rue Montmartre, to Rue Louvre, we kept on going. This is how we found the most amazing little shop, where I spend a load of money, on some uniqa bags of course. The bags were Campomaggi and B-e-a-u-tiful! (I do not care if they are for men! They are for me too!)

The ones on the last picture looks just like one of mine!

After I'd tortured my credit card we went on in the seach of some shoes for Morten. There was a lot of nice shops down this street, but I thought that I had spend enough money on the vase and my bags (but that would be just until that night). We found the shoes and went to Cité des Fleures, which is a quiet part of the city, just a stone trow away from avenue De Clichy. In 1847 it was said that everyone had to have at least 3 trees with flowers in their garden (here by the name).

...

   The long last day way ended at the staircase of Sacre Coeur, with a view of all of the city, cupcakes and... There was almost no people at the church and the sound of the cities roar did barely reach us up here.

P.s my fairytale has ended

Paris... Je t'amie!

Paris... Je T’amie! 

The next days we got to see the better part of Paris (No trashy places or shitty roads, sorry), though I was quite disappointed by Champs Elysses! There really wasn't no great shops, just the big chain shops like Gap, H&M and Louis Vuitton...

   Sunday we went to see Louvre (mainly to see Mona Lisa, by Da Vinci. We got to see most of the museum. Morten told me about the history of Egypt, while we saw the old mummies and other old stuff, like jewels (boy he knows many strange things). And we saw a show with arts from all over the world (mostly Africa). After Louvre we went through Jardin Des Tuilerie, Notre Dame, The Eiffel Tour and then last to a quick trip to the Champs Elysses. After this we walked the long way to Montmartre and stopped to get some baguette and some cheese for dinner.

Doves by Notre Dame

Well this I'll give to her... She's really though this through! She calls herself Mia and she disguises as a dove, and really she is Meduesa (due in danish means dove). And she's all around...

   Monday:We started the day by going through something called Passage Verdeau, Passage Jouffroy and Passage Panoramas which is a set of roof covered streets from the nineteenth century. In here I had found some arts the first day (Friday the 15.), which I started my shopping with. These streets are very beautiful, but the most beautiful of these is the Gallerie Vivienne (Where we went at the last day). With my to new pieces of art we walked down to Rue de Louvre to get a drink at Starbucks. After the Chai tea, Vanilla latte and a piece of cheesecake (way better than mine) we visited The Latin Quarter. We did not first see why this part has such a great mention in books of Paris, but the we turn down a little street and there is was... There where these amazingly beautiful glass fishes, which I've always been fascinated by, but these was bigger and more... elegant... But! There where more than just fishes! There was dragons, birds and all sorts of animal in the see through glass (probably sounds very cheese, but really nice if you find the right onces)

  After this we went to Champs Elysses once again, to walk the whole street (still not impressed). Morten showed my swarovski jewels (then I was really disappointed), but we got some nice Lp's in the Virgin store. We went home early, about 18.30, in lac of thing to do. Therefore we decited, or I did, to walk through the smaller streets to see something new. And so we did. That's how I got to see Hêrmes Paris! But it really wasn't what I had thought.

The night we spent by watching the film Hair, eating french nougat and french cakes

My art shoppings

( A though the 18, at 12.27 )

Is consitering buying the apartment on the other side of the block. We're sitting in Starbuck by Louvre, trying to avoid the cold morning weather. The music is smoothing and the chair is nice and warm. I still haven't awoken, despite of the 40 minuts walk down Rue de Louvre. We'll go to the Latin Quarter and then Champs Elysses (the last mostly a wish of Morten-surprise) I like the small streets better but... I wanna live here!

I’ve walked all of Paris - My feet hurts as hell...

I've Walked All Of Paris - My Feet Hurts As Hell...

Highheels, eight hours walking on uneven grounds, hill and what not; Not such a good idea! Or at least the first thing did not work in this equation!!! 

The first day I was smart! I had my wonder-fleemarked-comfy-boots on. Though Montmartre is build on hills, hills and more hills I could keep up to the levels of the arrondissement. Really noone believes in my mapskills and my good sence of direction, but they are killing in Paris!!! I even give directions to the french! I could live here; I know how to buy cheese, baguette and find my way around... We found some really nice sushi, to make the evening light and perfect. 

       1’st we went to see the area around and found Sacre Coeur just out of the blue. There were football payers in the street lamps playing with the balls in the air, singing at the stairway with all of the city in the background and of course, we can not forget, the Japanese people! 

    The second day was... not a trouble, but a little bit of a pain. Mostly in our feet. We went to see the music museeum (in the 19‘arrondisssement), but found it to be all in french, so we went to see Jim Morrison’s grave at Cimetière du Père Lachaise, wich had a very bumpyroad! This cemetery is certainly worth a visit. From here we walked to Norte Dame (1‘arrondissement) and went home. So we’ve been all around the east end of Paris by now. Sweet! Weather is a little bit off these days... It can't really decide how it want's to act, but it's all cool... It's all cool!

 By the way; The food is delicious. God save white bread and damned be the calories!

I Hope To Be Back...

I Hope To Be Back...

... Very soon! 

It might be tomorrow evening, when we're settled at the hotel or it might be at the 20 of october ( But I hope not )

I'm all packed up and just waiting for Morten to finish so that I can shower and go to sleep. I figure the sooner I sleep the sooner it will seem that we have to go the airport - and that is 4 a.m ( if you were interresed! )

I'm killing time with chocolat and peppernødder (peppernut that is), waiting for the water to boil...

( SORRY! No picture today... I'm writing from Mathide's computer, 'cause I don't wanna struggle with the internet on my own - I'm just too tired )

Signed, sealed, delivered, Paris I'm yours!

Signed, Sealed, Delivered, Paris I’m Yours!

Or almost... I'm leaving tomorrow at 3.pm to go to Copenhagen. Here I'll prepare the last couple of thing for the trip (wich means: New clothes!). We'll sleep at Morten's sister, because of the early departure (8.am).

I've packed all of my thing and are now just waiting for time to go by...

FYI - I'm bringing my pillow!

I think that almost everything is under my control, but tomorrow I'm sure it will turn out not to be. (I'm a bit of a controlfreak and yet really messy)

I just found a lot of old writings, I've never written down, so I' think I'll pass my time by writing them in my book...

BTW

Mia Jamie is my rock! She rocks!!!

FTW

The Image I stole from Thor Malthe Andersen!

Delay...

Delay...

Going to sing today, but both the drum and bass have gone!

Wanna play Ben?

We'll find them recipes for ice and redsoda, and you'll learn me the secret of bloggin'?

Or maybe I'll just get ready... I really need to pack

I allways pack too much... This time I'll try to pack just enough, maybe a little bit too little?!

I just really like birds okay?!

Morten’s Birthday

Morten’s Birthday

With heartshaped sushi and candles all over the room...

The Cupcake is long gone!

I love him like a sickness, and together is the cure...

- William Shakespeare 

This wasn't really planned, but I went with it anyway. I really need to be stronger. Not such a push-over!!! But he was happy. I got him purple shades to match with his purple shoes! Nice!!!

I know I'm cool...
