My Christmas

I have had some high expectations on Christmas this year, I've just had a good feeling about it. And I was right! Yesterday was the best Christmas in years! We celebrated it in the way that we always do, nothing different in that way. But ever since grandfather (mother's father) died it hasn't been quite the same. And also our relatives on my dad's side used to celebrate with us but grandma has gotten so old that it's just too much for her. So now we just spend Christmas with my grandmother (mother's mom). I didn't take any pictures of the presents I got but I appreciate them very much. I got a gift certificate for both clothes, movie theater and a massage at a SPA. I also got a pair of black jeans, a black leather skirt, a black skirt with white dots, a white tank top with lepard letters... and best of all a leather jacket! It's so hard to find a leather jacket that fits right but my sister managed to do so. Thank you very much!

I gave my sister a gift certificate for chocolate tasting in Stockholm. One for her and one for me, because it wouldn't be very fun for her to go there all alone. We have talked for a long time about going to Stockholm together to shop and just have a good time as sisters and now we have an excuse! I put out a bunch of clues in our home for her to find this gift, it was so much fun watching her run around looking for it :P

Here is yesterday in pictures!

My role model

The reason of why I have changed the way that I live for the past year.  

"A fat future account is what it is. Lots of fun and private things to be done later on. Later and later on. When is later on going to be? What if I don't live then." - Mia Skäringer

Sweets

I got this sudden urge in the middle of the night to make more Christmas candy. Haha, remember when I told you guys I love being creative with baking and that kind of stuff? Well December is the best month of the year to go nuts with it!

Please don't try to comfort me and say that this looks like a pig when it so clearly is a pink dog.......

White and dark chocolate with crushed almond and kokos (cocos in English?)

Crashdïet Unplugged at Scandic

I went to Stockholm for a quick visit on Tuesday evening. Finally I got to see my French ladies again!! haha :D
Nat and Allie have been travelling back and forth to Sweden for a while now, but have now settled down in England. So I'll get to see them when I go there for the Blackrain gig in February. Fun!

I went to Stockholm for just an hour, haha.. But it was worth it. It's not every day that Crashdïet plays an unplugged gig. The guys were supposed to be on stage at 10pm but for some reason they were 20 minutes late and that meant I had to leave before they were done. It sucked big time, but I couldn't miss the last train home. I got to see most of the gig though and it was beautiful. Perhaps a strange word to describe a Crash-gig with but it just felt like the perfect ending to a major tour. They have been gone for so long and most of the people I see when I go out partying in Stockholm were at this gig. Like a reunion, just in time for Christmas :)

R.I.P Shannon Hoon

There's probably not one single rock n rolla out there who hasn't heard the song "Don't cry". Do I even need to tell ya it's a song made by Guns N Roses? Nah, didn't think so either. The guy who sings together with Axl in the video is Shannon Hoon. And I think most of you would agree with me when I say that he completes the song. Together with Axl they create one of the strongest vocal recordings of all time. So, wouldn't you want to hear this wonderful combination live? Of course you would, but since this was just a spontaneous cooperation it's hard to find videos of these guys together on stage.

Shannon was busy touring with his own band Blind Melon which it went really well for. They sold platinum-records and got to perform at Woodstock in -94. Although this was a honorable thing to get to do, Hoon's strong drug addiction got in the way and he got abusive towards the audience. But it's still rated by the fans as one of the best shows he ever did.

Shannon became a father to a girl named Nico Blue in July 1995. During that time he was going in and out of rehab. The band was out on the road again in October, together with a drug counseler who was supposed to keep Shannon away from getting addicted again. But the plan failed and the drug counseler was fired just days before Shannon was found dead, at the age of 28.

Let's never forget what this man did for rock n roll music.
Take the time to enjoy this beautiful, and rare, performance with Axl and Shannon on vocals
