The Cleverness of Winnie the Pooh.

No, I haven't lost my marbles. I was looking up different quotes and found a bunch said by none other than Winnie the Pooh. That bear we all loved to hate at one point of our life. I liked the books when I was a kid, then I outgrew them. But now, reading some parts of it makes me realize how clever that honey-addict of a bear truly is.
The small comments that we laughed at and thought were hilarious as kids, still are but now we actually understand the pretty insightful meaning behind those words.

Here are some of my personal favourites, both funny ones, and very clever ones.
You just gotta love that bear.

“People who don't Think probably don't have Brains; rather, they have grey fluff that's blown into their heads by mistake.”

“It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?”

“You can't stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.”

“If the person you are talking to doesn't appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be that he has a small piece of fluff in his ear.”

“When late morning rolls around and you're feeling a bit out of sorts, don't worry; you're probably just a little eleven o'clockish.”

“Before beginning a Hunt, it is wise to ask someone what you are looking for before you begin looking for it.”

“I am a Bear of Very Little Brain, and long words bother me.”

I Love/Hate the fact that Christmas is approaching.

So I've been looking at dresses, the Shopaholic in me is screaming that I need something new to wear at Christmas. Because it is approaching terrifyingly fast, that holdiay we all have a Love/Hate relationship with.
Because yes, I like the food, the lights and decorations, the tree, the whole feel of Christmas.
The stress, I could live without. And I love giving my near and dear gifts and yet I hate buying them. Because I can never figure out what to give them, seriously it is a humongous issue for me. Ew.

Anyway here's some dresses I found, aren't they prrrrrrrrrretty?

London Dress EUR 29,90, Only - NELLY.COM

So...How about this Weather we're having, eh?

That has to be the most overused line in this country today. Because guess what people; the snow has arrived. The white, slippery, wet and rather annoying gue has infiltrated our territory and covered every brown/greyish spot it could find.

People are going nuts. They can't seem to drive properly. They aren't wearing the right footwear. They seem distracted by the white mass outside the windows and most important of all; they can't seem to stop talking about it. Both positive and negative comments are thrown around, everywhere.
This happens every year. You would think that they were used to it by now, right?
But no, every single year it's the same mess and panic strikes the country when the first snow arrives. It's an ongoing debate and the intensity never decreases.

Me? I'm not that into snow so I'm not so happy about this event. And the constant talking about it+the fact that I'm missing the S.A. like a crazy person isn't really helping to calm my nervs.
But now I should go back to work and await the next client, who will, undoubtedly,comment on the weather we're having. Sigh.

"Snö"=Snow, is Swedish.

Romance.

I honestly thought Romance was dead. Something that only exsisted in movies, books and little girls' day dreams.

People just don't do romance anymore. Romance today is when a guy buys you a drink at the bar and later tries to touch the boobs he's been staring at all night. Or on the odd occasion  remembers to hold the door open and not slam it in your face. Or so I thought.

Many months ago I did have a thing with a guy who said he was a romantic. Saying something and actually being it is two entirely different things. Yes, he could talk the talk but you didn't quite believe it thanks to the somewhat sleazy tone or double meanings. Sure he held up doors and was quite the gentleman, but he was also a rather sleazy player-ish type and a romantic he was not. So my poor hopeless romantic brain once again thought; Romance never entered the 21st century. I was wrong.

This weekend, no these past weeks, has changed my mindset drastically. It all began with that Letter I rambled about a few weeks ago. But this weekend took it to a totally different level.
It was homecooked food, candles, the whole shebang* and just so romantic that I honestly thought I would cry. It was like taken from one of my romance-novels-that-I'm-embarressed-to-say-I-actually-own! 

So I have been proven wrong countless of times these past weeks, and happily so.
And I can only come to one conclusion; Romance is not Dead.



*(I also said that I would never, ever be one of those gushy types. That just smiles, and giggles and gushes about everything no matter how sweet it is. Because I am rather cynical, even though there is a hopeless romantic living inside of me. Well the romantic side has officially kicked the cynic in the butt and is now ruling my brain. Oh someone please help me? Anyway, the point was that I aplogize for my overly-gushy posts lately and for those that are bound to show up here later. Because we all know that I won't be able to restrain myself. Sorry.)

Affirmation.

 This has to be one of the greatest songs ever. The lyrics are just pure brilliance and they make you think. I actually own this album, someone gave it to me ages ago when SG was "popular". I loved it then. And I love it now.

I believe in Karma...

Am I Going...Dare I Say It...Mad?

I'm not used to missing people. Sure I miss my friends that live far away, and because of that I can't see them as often as I would like to. But missing someone, when you haven't seen them in one day. One Stinking Day. That's a new experience for me. Am I going mad?
All I've been able to think about today is; for this workday to be over so I can go see The S.A. whom I haven't seen since Tuesday. Two days. That's nothing.
And yet...I genuinly and honestly miss him a little. Oh bugger, I'm done for, aren't I?

Dull.

It's been another grey-day t'day. Not very uplifting or inspiring at all. It's just been a dull day. I'm not even sure what I've done, if nothing at all?
This is a beautiful, yet dull picture. Pretty much sums up my mood right now. Blah.

I'm listening to John Mayer again, just reading books and kindof chillaxing for once. Since I've been all over the place and rather hysteric the last couple of days. Insane really.

I'm currently reading the fourth book in the Sookie Stackhouse series, since I ordered the whole set awhile ago. They are easy to read and funny. Not a book you need to use your brain for, which is rather relaxing.

Over and Out.
