I guess you did. But did you know that this is the name of Jason Mraz's new album? Well, Mr Mraz is back, and he's got alot of good summer singles. There is this one which is called Living in the moments, and my blog is also called "live in the moments" so that was kind of funny. Check it out!

You know the feeling, when you want to find out how a book ends, but you don't want it to end? It's been a while since I got the feeling, but recently when I read "High Fidelity" by Nick Hornby I just fell in love with the book. I would say that it's a my-type-of-book. A book about a man in the late thirties, who has been dumped by some girls, and now he is working in a record store. He is telilng his story, which is quite depressing actually, because he is always feeling desperate and alone. The funny part though is that he is always acting like a stereotype, as a typical man. Another thing which fascinated me was the descriptions. Instead of saying "feeling happy like..." he compares his feelings to different records and songs. Pretty amazing actually. I must say that I hadn't heard all of the song in the book, so I had to google it sometimes to understand what he was feeling. haha, but I really enjoyed reading this one.  If you want to know how a man thinks, get started on High Fidelity! 

Also, I found out that there is also a film based on this novel. I haven't been able to watch it, but I am going to, as soon as I get time! 

Haha that question wasn't that random, Rob, this man that the book is about, often goes around wondering whether he became sad because of the songs, or did he listen to pop songs because he was sad.  I guess it would be nice to get an answer to that, because I don't really know whether I listen to some classic pop song because I am feeling down, because it may happen that I start feeling down when I listen to the songs.. ah, who knows. That is not the important thing. 

I did not imagine him this way. He is actually very handsome. I imagined an ugly man with a bad haircut and a lot of pimples. But this guy? He was actually good looking!

This is a hard one. There are so many pictures I like. Some of them are famous paintings, and other personal photographs. But this is one that I've liked since I was a child. We used to paint paintings by Edvard Munch, and I must say I really like his way of expressing his feelings. 

Dance of life - Livets dans - Edvard Munch. 

Why I like it: 

- I love the red coloured dress as the centerpiece in the painting. 

- The fact that there are people symbolizing every stage in life. Jealousy, In love, loneliness, happy, sad.. Pretty much everything. 

- I just like the feeling I get when I look at the picture.

My life is abit like the ketchup. I don't really like it that much. I prefer the Idun Ketchup, if you know what I mean. But that is irrelevant.. I feel like i'm stuck in a bottle somewhere and I can't get out. I can get out, I can, it's not like that, but only when anyone make me come out.. The Ketchup doesn't spread out on a hot dog by itself does it? Well, I feel like that sometimes. I feel that I can't give my best unless someone makes me give my best. I try doing things, but then I end up screwing things up, because I know I will never be able to make it. Imagine if you were a drop of ketchup and you were inside of this huge bottle. You want to come out, so desperatly.. But even though you try your best to come out, something is stopping you. And that something is the fact that you know the bottle is closed. And the funny part is that after staying in the bottle after some time, you get used to the idea of not being able to come out.. that when someone is trying to empty the bottle, you try so hard to stick to the bottom of it. Well, I feel that too. I guess, I'm getting used to that "you will mess up everything, why do you even try?" feeling that I get s

ometimes. And so because of that I am afraid to actually try, because I am tired of failing. Tired of feeling like a failiure. You wont know what I mean, because if you knew you wouldnt be here reading my blog, you would be out there and writing your own.  

But I am trying to come out of the bottle. I am trying very hard. And I feel like my friends and family are trying to empty the bottle, so eventually I will come out. It is just a matter of time, and then I will be free. I will make it. I wont mess up everything in life. I wont. I just need to believe in myself again. 

Heinz Ketchup. Big Pack. Since 1994.

There are some things that you can replace when you get tired of the old ones.  I am not talking about your boy friend. Nah, I am talking about something more important. Ice cubes! I love ice cubes in summer, but aren't we all tired of the squares and circles? I find these new ones very fascinating, and I wish I had the penguins. Just look at them, they are adorable! They are definetly on my wish list.. (which reminds me, I have to write down a compelete wish list, that is pretty fun!) 

You can buy it from here.  - Designtorget.se. 

Did you know that there are so many creative ice cubes designs ?

Today, everybody has Facebook, or as Wikipedia says, around 900 million poeple has it. I used to be an addictive user too, it was fun actually, but I realized that I spent too much time on it, when I could actually have done other stuff. But what really shocks me, is that I gave people that I didn't know so much importance, that I cared to comment, like and find out what they did in their spare time. I forgot what it was like to be happy without comparing it with others happiness. I used to think that other people had a greater life, a better family, more friends and everything. So, some weeks ago, months actually, I deactivated my account hoping to stop comparing my life with others. But because of some reasons I had to make a new user lately, but this time I intend not to have more than 25 friends. The thing is really, that while I wasn't using Facebook, I lost contact with so many people, but still I survived. You might think that it would be hard to cut out the online social connection you have with your friends, but it isn't. I always felt like activating it, and I did, during my vacations I used to activate it. But what I realized after deactivating was that I have a special family. A family I really appreciate. I have a best friend that I would never want to loose. I have friends that I may not spend my every minute with, but I know that when I need them, they will be there for me. That is actually all I need to know, and I don't need to show it off by updating status, by uploading pictures and all. The important part is that I know it, finally. 

I am not saying that everyone who has facebook has it for this reason. I am just saying that Facebook can be fun, but it can also be destructive. People often start comparing their life to others, without realizing that what they have is equally special. So if that is the case for you, or if you don't know whether you are being comparative, so try deactivating. Try it for some days, and if you feel like you are missing it, activate it. 

According to me, facebook is a bit overrated. I mean, yeah it is easier to connect with people that doesn't live where you live, but the majority of your friends are people you meet every day, at work at school and also people you live with. Facebook is a great place to share things, amazing actually. And the reason I had to make a new user is so that I can get information about where I have to meet and all. 

That is the question. 

But just so you know, it feels great without Facebook!
