You make me wanna lala

I was just reminded that I was once a pretty big Ashlee Simpson fan, believe it or not.
And I still think these songs rocks....

La la

Autobiography
I walked a thousand miles while everyone was asleep
Nobody's really seen my million subtleties

Love me for me
Shut up, come back
No I didn't really mean to say that
I'm mixed up, so what
Yeah you want me so you're messed up too
I love you, I hate you
If you only knew what I've been through

My head is spinnin'

But my heart is in the right place
Sometimes it has to have itself a little earthquake

She lives in a fairy tale

I feel pretty drained from this weekend. Not much has happened though. I went to Casablanca's release party on Saturday, but that is pretty much it. I ended up going home early, I just weren't in a party kind of mood I guess. But everyone else had a good time, so in that sense it was a success.

Anna, Me and Alex at Heaven's Gate

I just miss having my closest friends around. Those who can make me go on partying for an entire night without feeling exhausted. Those who I can talk to about everything. Those who make me understand that I'm not crazy for feeling or thinking in certain ways, I'm just human. To make matters worse my sister is moving from home in a week. She got a job so she is moving waaaay up north in Sweden to live there with her boyfriend. I'm happy that things are going well for her, I'll just miss her a lot. Going to events and doing things that are supposed to be fun, aren't that fun when your closest friends and family aren't there. No wonder I rather stay at home. The things I am looking forward to right now is that Viper will be coming here in April. She'll stay here for a couple of days and then we will drive up to Avesta to support our friend Jesper with his rock festival. He has booked some really great bands, including Sister, so I'm sure it'll be a great night!
Another thing I have to look forward to is Huddinge festival. I'll just go there for one day in June, but Crashdïet is playing and as you all know, I consider them to be the best.

Now I'm going to try and make sense out of Facebook's new page profiles. I guess we'll get some sort of timeline there as well. Just gotta update the Casablanca, Roxie77 and Gibson Scandinavia pages with some stuff. I honestly love doing things like that, it takes my mind off things!

She lives in a fairy tale
Somewhere too far for us to find
Forgotten the taste and smell
Of the world that she's left behind

Well, if it's not real

You can't hold it in your hands
You can't feel it with your heart
And I won't believe it
But if it's true
You can see it with your eyes
Even in the dark
And that's where I want to be, yeah

4 fun facts about me

¤ The worst pickup line I've ever gotten is "What is evil to you?"...

¤ I was named after the character Caroline in the soap opera The bold and the 
beautiful... dear lord....

Caroline & Ridge

¤ I'm not particularly fond of people who make a debate out of exactly everything.

¤ As a child I flushed my favourite pair of shorts down the toilet because I was pissed off at my parents. Well guess who ended up being the most upset about losing those Winne the Pooh-shorts?

Fair warning - Heart on the run

Just a song that I ran into on YouTube a couple of days ago. It's the kind of song that rocks my world.

Casablanca - "Love and Desperation" - Music video

Check out their brand new video!

The release of Casablanca - Apocalyptic Youth

I am supposed to write my two last assignments for school today. But I am so excited about tomorrow that I can't concentrate! Right now I am just sitting here waiting for the postman so that I can get my Casablanca CD which I pre-ordered a million years ago. I already have most of the songs in form of an EP but there are some tracks that are yet to be discovered! Tomorrow we are going to celebrate the release of the CD which is what I am looking forward to. Even though I'm not exactly apart of the band, lol. I still feel like I have worked so hard to promote all of the gigs, the release of the EP and now the CD. It's well worth to celebrate all of the good reviews it has gotten. I'll take the train to Stockholm and meet up with Alexandra who I met last Friday at Ryan's Gibson clinic. After having a drink (or two...) we'll meet up with Anna. Then it's party, party, party with the band and all of our wonderful friends.

For those of you who also wants to celebrate the release of the CD can do so by seeing the band perform two short acoustic gigs during the day. The first one is at Hot Records in Solna at 11.30 a.m. and the other one at Bengans in Stockholm at 2.30 p.m. Of course there will be signing sessions included!

Tulips on the kitchen table

This day has barely started and I feel like I have gotten SO much done already! Considering I haven't slept at all and kind of feel like I'm in a zombie mode, it was amazing that I managed to get up at 6 o clock and drive to the pre-school. We have an assignment coming up in school where I have to interview one of the pre-school teachers. She gave me some really good answers to my questions so I've got plenty of material! Plus it was really nice seeing the kids again. That is always the best part about going there. And I just blend in like normal, the kids immediately see me as the grown up who is in charge. I didn't stay longer than for half an hour though, because they were getting ready to go outside.
Despite being exhausted I actually made a quick decision to park my car next to an old forrest that I have a lot of memories from. I don't know how many times I ran around in there as a kid. I had my camera with me so I walked around taking photos. I can't believe how peaceful it was. That is the only thing I don't like about living in the city, because there is no way that you can find a peaceful place like that there. A place where you can stand in silence, just listening to four different kinds of birds singing, leaves blowing, trees squeeking, twigs breaking... I felt like I was on a 30 minute long vacation. Came home as a brand new me!
