This weekend has been absolutely amazing. I've never felt so adult before. And this time it didn't feel like I was pretending to be a grown-up, it actually felt like I was one. I've been complaining about my age the last couple of days, been feeling so old and like my life is almost over (when I'm only 23...=/ ) but this weekend it felt good to be "old". The enire weekend has been about the two big F's - friends and food. Just good company and good food, all you need. =)

somethings makes you someone
If you tell someone something interesting, then it's an interesting thing. But if you tell that same persone three or four more interesting things, then all of the sudden it's YOU that IS interesting.
It's pretty fascinating. I think it's the same with the things you do in your life. If you go to work, go home, do nothing, and then go to work.. Then you can tell someone "Yeah, I work..." And maybe thats interesting, but it's just one thing. If you can tell that same person "Yeah, I work, and then I'm trying to learn how to play the guitar and I'm taking some salsa lessons and yeah, I'm going to Tokyo next week" then all these interesting things you do makes you an interesting person. And I wanna be an interesting person. I dont wanna be that girl that no one notice, I wanna be the girl people remember and think: Yeah, that Ida chick, she's something, isn't she? Dont you? I think that's why I thought it was so fun to start playing the guitar and the piano again. Because I did something, something interesting that wasn't just.. doing nothing. It was something, and all of the sudden I was someone. And I wanna do more. I just don't know what. Any ideas?

I had a dream
I had a dream. I met the perfect guy. He was all I ever wanted and in the dream we just walked and talked and we had the same goals in life and I realise that this is the person I wanna spend the rest of my life with. Thats it. We just talked, and i figured it out. Its always much easier when I'm dreaming.. But when I woke up I decided something. I decided: No more. No more casual dating just because, because its nice to have someone, nice to be able to kiss sometimes... And even though I know that those guys are not the kind of persons I want to build something real with, I keep on doing that, because its nice... No more. Of course, casual kissing sometimes is okej, but "seriously" dating that person and knowing that it will never be more - no. I'm gonna find that guy from my dream. I dont know how, I dont know where, but I will find him. And I wont go around dating all these frogs just to get to him.

The giver
I did a test just now, to see which personality I have. I'm a ENFJ. This is what it said about me:
"The Giver
As an ENFJ, you're primary mode of living is focused externally, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit into your personal value system. Your secondary mode is internal, where you take things in primarily via your intuition.
ENFJs are people-focused individuals. They live in the world of people possibilities. More so than any other type, they have excellent people skills. They understand and care about people, and have a special talent for bringing out the best in others. ENFJ's main interest in life is giving love, support, and a good time to other people. They are focused on understanding, supporting, and encouraging others. They make things happen for people, and get their best personal satisfaction from this.
Because ENFJ's people skills are so extraordinary, they have the ability to make people do exactly what they want them to do. They get under people's skins and get the reactions that they are seeking. ENFJ's motives are usually unselfish, but ENFJs who have developed less than ideally have been known to use their power over people to manipulate them.
ENFJ's are so externally focused that it's especially important for them to spend time alone. This can be difficult for some ENFJs, because they have the tendency to be hard on themselves and turn to dark thoughts when alone. Consequently, ENFJs might avoid being alone, and fill their lives with activities involving other people. ENFJs tend to define their life's direction and priorities according to other people's needs, and may not be aware of their own needs. It's natural to their personality type that they will tend to place other people's needs above their own, but they need to stay aware of their own needs so that they don't sacrifice themselves in their drive to help others.
ENFJ's tend to be more reserved about exposing themselves than other extraverted types. Although they may have strongly-felt beliefs, they're likely to refrain from expressing them if doing so would interfere with bringing out the best in others. Because their strongest interest lies in being a catalyst of change in other people, they're likely to interact with others on their own level, in a chameleon-like manner, rather than as individuals.
Which is not to say that the ENFJ does not have opinions. ENFJs have definite values and opinions which they're able to express clearly and succinctly. These beliefs will be expressed as long as they're not too personal. ENFJ is in many ways expressive and open, but is more focused on being responsive and supportive of others. When faced with a conflict between a strongly-held value and serving another person's need, they are highly likely to value the other person's needs.
The ENFJ may feel quite lonely even when surrounded by people. This feeling of aloneness may be exacerbated by the tendency to not reveal their true selves.
People love ENFJs. They are fun to be with, and truly understand and love people. They are typically very straight-forward and honest. Usually ENFJs exude a lot of self-confidence, and have a great amount of ability to do many different things. They are generally bright, full of potential, energetic and fast-paced. They are usually good at anything which captures their interest.
ENFJs like for things to be well-organized, and will work hard at maintaining structure and resolving ambiguity. They have a tendency to be fussy, especially with their home environments.
In the work place, ENFJs do well in positions where they deal with people. They are naturals for the social committee. Their uncanny ability to understand people and say just what needs to be said to make them happy makes them naturals for counseling. They enjoy being the center of attention, and do very well in situations where they can inspire and lead others, such as teaching.
ENFJs do not like dealing with impersonal reasoning. They don't understand or appreciate its merit, and will be unhappy in situations where they're forced to deal with logic and facts without any connection to a human element. Living in the world of people possibilities, they enjoy their plans more than their achievements. They get excited about possibilities for the future, but may become easily bored and restless with the present.
ENFJs have a special gift with people, and are basically happy people when they can use that gift to help others. They get their best satisfaction from serving others. Their genuine interest in Humankind and their exceptional intuitive awareness of people makes them able to draw out even the most reserved individuals.
ENFJs have a strong need for close, intimate relationships, and will put forth a lot of effort in creating and maintaining these relationships. They're very loyal and trustworthy once involved in a relationship.
An ENFJ who has not developed their Feeling side may have difficulty making good decisions, and may rely heavily on other people in decision-making processes. If they have not developed their Intuition, they may not be able to see possibilities, and will judge things too quickly based on established value systems or social rules, without really understanding the current situation. An ENFJ who has not found their place in the world is likely to be extremely sensitive to criticism, and to have the tendency to worry excessively and feel guilty. They are also likely to be very manipulative and controling with others.
In general, ENFJs are charming, warm, gracious, creative and diverse individuals with richly developed insights into what makes other people tick. This special ability to see growth potential in others combined with a genuine drive to help people makes the ENFJ a truly valued individual. As giving and caring as the ENFJ is, they need to remember to value their own needs as well as the needs of others."
Scary....some of those things are suprisingly right....If you wanna do the test yourself you can do it here.

A plan for my future career
I found these amazing psd tutorials last night. Look at this one! When people ask me "Can you work in photoshop?" I answer something like : "Well yeah... I can cut pictures and make them black and white and...yeah....". But there's no way I can't do that! (Not yet anyway...;) ) If I could learn Photoshop and Illustraior for real, and i mean FOR REAL, i could get a job with just that knowledge! So now I got a plan. I'm going to do those tutorials I found, and use them as inspiration and combine them somehow and make me a proper homepage, where I can have my CV, portofio, blog etc. How about www.myname.com? I will look in to that..

litte voice
This is a strange situation for me... I usually talk all the time, I like talking...But these last days I've been having trouble with my throat , it hurts really bad and I have practically lost my voice. So whenever I try to talk it hurts! So now I can't.... talk! Maybe a relif for those people who have to listen to me all day long, but boring for me....

True colors
Okey... I found another one. I'm so in love. Minni Havas. Can i merry her? Look here to see her amazing art. I specially like the one on the third page at the bottom, the beutiful girl. I want to be her.. I want to live in that drawing. And all the beutify in the world keep coming right at me now! Right after I found Minni Havas I say this commercial for Björn Borg.
"I see your true colors shining through"

Valentine's day
Found this one att XKCD. Valentine's day is coming up and as usual, the fact that I don't have anyone to celebrate it with hits me hard. I could use a statistically significant other!

A little more creative.. you want proof ?
And yeah, I just thought of something! The blogs I like (except for the one my friends have) is the one with a lot of photos of special things. A cool picture made in Illustrator, a photo of something someone has done. And I thought (that's what I do these days, I think a lot..) that since I've actually started to being a little bit more creative these last weeks I might be able to do that to. I finished my pants last weekend, I could take a picture of them. Maybe. Don't know if that will attract so many people, but it's a start! What do you say?
OK
Today has been a pretty ok day, considering I was suppose to be on a cruise and do absolutely nothing except relax and enjoy the good company of my dear friend T. But she has been having trouble sleeping, more than usual that is, so she had to go to Uppsala to look that up. (Hope you are sleeping well now darling!!! Love to you) So what did I do? Well, actually, nothing. I went to school, spoke some spanish, then went home, took a nap, did some food (real studentfood, took everything I had at home and tried to do a meal with that... it was.. interesting I have to say..) , saw both heroes, lost and one tree hill and then did some nothing before I cleaned my appartment (okey, maybe thats not doing absolutely nothing, but I didn't do anything important anyway). And tonight I've been watching a movie with C, a scary one... And it was SCARY! But with a bad ending... I hate those endings! But anyway, as I said, a pretty ok day. So that ok.

I don't know how to find my way...
I'm lost, so lost. And I don't know how to find my way out of this... To find MY way, MY life. How do you know where to go if you don't have a goal? How do you set a goal if you don't know what you want in life? I've been, well I don't know if wasting is the right word, but two years of my life has soon gone by and I still don't know if this is what I really really want to do. I don't even know if I'm ready to make that decision yet! I'm only 23, but still I have to make a lifelong decision now. Of course I dont HAVE to do it, but I'm 23! People are suppose to know what they want to do by now. How do I figure that out? And if I do, how do say goodbye to this life?

Stuck in my mind
(Been up all night playing this on the guitar, and tomorrow I'm gonna print the piano sheets so I can play it on my beutiful piano and sing to it. I actually think you can be a musician, you just have to want to, really bad. And then you make it happen. Maybe thats true for other wishes as well?)
(I dont how I started to write in english, but i thought it would be good for me to practice. So please don't judge my grammar and stuff like that, this is a big step for me)
Based on a true story
It's not often you find a movie that really makes you feel. A movie that stays within your, long after the curtains has closed. I think I saw one of those rare movies tonight. Changeling. It's about a mother and her missing son. I'm no mother yet, but I feel with her. I have no idea how I could ever survive something like that. But she does, she goes through so much and still manage to find the strength and hope to make it through the day. That, most of all, makes me feel. I never want to go through something like that, never ever, but i wish I could find that kind of strenght within me when I need it the most.
If you haven't seen the movie yet, do so.

TEMLA!
Det gick bra igår. Jag var riktigt vuxen i mitt alkoholdrickande. Drack kanske tre öl och kände sen att nej, nu ska här intas massa mängder vatten! Så drack nog minst tre glas vatten då. Och efter det hade jag så mycket vätska i kroppen så drack kanske bara en, ev två öl till. Så höll mig i kontroll hela kvällen!
Och det var riktigt trevligt ändå. Vet inte varför men skaffat mig en uppfattning om vissa personer, som jag egentligen vetat om var fel, men den har uppstått ändå, men nu har jag ändrat uppfattning. =) Bra att även jag kan förbättras! Dessutom fick jag en och en halv semla. Och det kan jag säga.... Semlor på fest, det är bra grejer det...=)
