More shoes...

Remember what I said about me not buying anymore shoes? Well, I haven't yet! HA! But I've now come to a point when I'm starting to realize that I'm buying shoes that I can't actually use ^^ Good ey?! Here's a pair I bought in the beginning of the summer (I had been looking for some with that oriental touch) and I found this pair of Andrea Lattanzi (handmade in Italy)... Do I even have to tell you how much they cost? ^^ I doubt it...  


High-Speed-Living 2006

So let's continue with part one of 2006 - the year when I got to see the world! (Read about 2005)



February


 New team again and a new boot camp. This time I went down to Malmö to meet up with Les Seules. People were wondering why the hell I would change to a team which EYEBALLERS manage to win over, and the answer was pretty easy - I'd always wanted to be a part of Les Seules!



 After just being a part of the team for 3 weeks, we entered our first tournament with the new line-up - SHGOpen in Denmark.



 After just a short break, it was time for yet another boot camp at Louise's and Lines place. Let's just say that we weren't that excited.



Mars


 Time for yet another tournament and this time in Utrecht, The Netherlands. We managed to place 9th-12th out of over a 100 teams.


April


 We rented a van and drove down to Dortmund and a convention called Hobbytronic. We had our own booth which was one of the most visited ones during the entire week. We played vs. silver* and Tixo etc, and guess what... They lost! ;)



 We didn't even planned on going to RendezVous in Skövde, but we headed over there and met up with the German team Alternate aTTax and had a few crazy party-nights instead of actually competing :P



June


 Finally we got our self some new sponsored computers from Bringiton!



 Dreamhack Summer and ofcourse the ESWC-quali. We pretty much crushed all the other teams without having been playing for a few weeks.



 ESWC Finals in Paris. The best event ever - shit loads of prize money and good teams from all over the world. We didn't expect to make it thru the second group stage since we hadn't been playing for a while, but sometimes all you need is some fighting-spirit - we finished 2nd and won 9000$.



About the PlayUs Tour ;) That will be upp soon!

December

 I drove down to meet up with some old team mates from SWW. Did we have a good time or what?! :D

Hall of Fame?

I was just Google:ing (hmm) around and looked for a designer whose bra I found down in Ystad two years ago. Why? Well, I love that bra and it's simple, I just want another one :P But it's freaking impossible to find a store that sells her lingerie.

However, what I found about this designer was pretty cool... Her name is Marlies Dekkers and her lingerie is worn by huge celebrities all over the world. Don't you think I also deserve a spot in the "Hall Of Fame" ;D

3 Doors Down - Landing in London

Here's a song which has an enormous meaning for me. This song and its lyrics was the ONLY song I listened to during the last two stops on the Play Us tour and it pretty much tells everything about how I was feeling at the point in time. I fell asleep on the flight to London and woke up to this song when the plane touched the ground. I think you'll understand what I'm talking about when you read the lyrics.




"Landing In London"

I woke up today in London
As the plane was touching down
And all I could think about was monday
And maybe ill be back around

If this keeps me away much longer
I dont know what i will do
Youve got to understand its a hard life
That im going through

And when the night falls in around me
I dont think ill make it through
Ill use your light to guide the way
Cause all I think about is you

Well L.A is getting kinda crazy
And New york is getting kinda cold
I keep my head from geting lazy
I just cant wait to get back home

And all these days i spend away
Ill make up for this i swear
I need your love to hold me up
When its all too much to bear

And when the night falls in around me
I dont think ill make it through
Ill use your light to guide the way
Cause all I think about is you

And all these days i spend away
Ill make up for this i swear
I need your love to hold me up
When its all too much to bear

When the night falls in around me
I dont think ill make it through
Ill use your light to guide the way
Cause all I think about is you

I’m poor again….


After only 15 minutes on the phone, I've spent ~1700€ ... I know, I got a problem when it comes to shopping. But I'm finally getting an oven AND a dishwasher!!! It will be delivered to my door within 5-7 days ;) WOHO!!!


5 summer favourites

I just got a challenge thrown at me from Ann, my sweaty pie, to make a list of my five favourite products this summer. So, here we go!


1.  Colourings Tinted Bronzing Powder

2.  Lancome Star Bronzer

3.  Dior Diorshow

4.  Estée Lauder Double Wear

5.  Lancome Bi-Facil Eye Make up Remover



These are all the products I just have to have in my handbag, can't live without ‘em!


Just keep swimming, just keep swimming!



Don't you just love being able to take a 10min drive and suddenly realize that you might as well be at some beach in a foreign country! Some friends and I drove to our lake Möckeln in Degerfors for a swim last night and had a great time!


Guinness World Records Magazine




When I got back from work last night,
around 00:30, I looked through my mail
as I always do. I'd gotten a mail from
"Guinness World Records Magazine"
who wanted to do an interview with me.
The issue is released in late august,
so keep an eye or two open for it ;)



Our iview in the magazine :)


A few weeks ago, Sofi and I went to Stockholm to do an iview with FRIDA. They wanted to make an article about us and Play Us. While I was working last week I saw the iview in the magazine :D

Sorry to say it’s in Swedish, but for you who’ll understand it – Enjoy!








WTF - is this a joke!?

I've found the coolest thing for my kitchen. Well, it all started with a huge and stupid mistake. When I moved to Norrköping last year, it all went REALLY fast when I got my apartment, not even 3 working days from when I saw the pics on the Internet, until I signed the contract. What I didn't saw was that there was no oven... Embarrassing, donno how it's even possible to miss that ^^ But I did!


Anyway, last weekend my dad and I drove down to Norrköping to measure some stuff in my kitchen and look for an oven and maybe a dishwasher. And you know what I found... HAHA you wouldn't believe me if I hadn't taken a picture of it! So, now I have a reason to work those crappy hours - no more shoes, it's all about the combined oven and dishwasher!

 


I'm soooo tired!

Time to go to work again, but I'm soooo dead tired... I'm sitting here in the kitchen and I'm eating my breakfast. Thank god I'm off work around 16:00. This is going to be a looooong day...

What are you going to do today?


"Who do you wanna date?"

I just got the biggest chock... I got an URL sent to me form guy I don't even know. I can't help laughing when I see the contesters! :P


"It's really.. Wingly!!!" huh?!

Here's a clip from Play Us - episode 8. Haha just enjoy it and have a few laughs!!! Even though I think this is f*cking embarrassing, I laugh my brains out every time I see it :P Specially Sophie's "It's really... WINGLY!!!"


High-Speed-Living - 2005

It was a while ago since I graduated and got thrown out into the real life... Ewh, that makes me sound old, but I can honestly say that it feels like way more than three years ago! It's been three high-speed-living years tbh... I've managed experience quite a lot of things which most people wont even live through their entire life. It all started because of the game Counter-Strike, and I want to show you guys my story up until now :D


Let's start with my graduation year - 2005.



January


 It all started with a LAN called Optihack. I went to Gothenburg to meet up with two of my team mates - Ann and Linda from SWW. We didn't compete or anything like that, just talked to a few potential sponsors.



February


 My team and I - SWW, had just sealed a deal with one of Scandinavia's most famous online computer store, datorbutiken.com . So we headed down to their stockroom in Staffanstorp for a get-together and LAN-party! To our surprise, when we arrived to their warehouse, there were five sponsored computers waiting for us! ;)



April


 My team and I went to Stockholm and Inferno Online for a boot camp to practice for an event in Spain.



 Time for CPL Barcelona, Spain - the biggest and the most prestigious competition in the world at that time. This was out first LAN-event EVER, and we didn't do that good :P However, we finished 5-8th place. Datorbutiken.com sponsored our trip. (Notice the lovely colour in the bathroom, we got the handicapped-sign a few seconds too late....)



May


  Just 5 days after we got back home from CPL Barcelona, we planned to participate in the tournament at RixHack in Gothenburg, but we ended up just going there and having a good time with some old friend instead!



June


 The 10th I finally graduated and some of my closest friends showed up and surprised me! We had a great time barbequing, drinking wine and having a bunch of laughs!


 We packed our equipment and headed to Jönköping and Dreamhack. We participated in the ESWC-quali but ended at 5th place... Haha not good, but we had a lot of fun with our friends!

  

  SWW picked up another sponsor - insancecaps.com and had a photo shoot with their stuff.



July


 Time for the second SWW-db LAN to take place. Even more people joined up this time. We arranged a tournament with actual prices, played poker, barbequed in one-time-grills  ^^ and ofc had a few drinks too much ;P



November


 After changing team to EYEABLLERS, my new team and I had to practice for the Female Tournament at Dreamhack Winter. Time for another boot camp!

  

 After competing against the world best female team and beating them 3/3 matches, we won the tournament and got our self a lot of stuff for our computers. "EYE IS LIFE!!! NaNaaaNaNaNaa" Remember? ;)



Hang in there, there's more to come in just a day or two... Then it's time for 2006 ;)

Come and play us!

Ok... I just saw episode 8 from Play US, when we're in Berlin, Germany. Embarrassing... So freaking embarrassing! We're trying to sing ^^ HAHA and NO ONE of us even has the slightest talent what so ever when it comes to actually hit even one note ^^ Though, we're experts of coming up with new and unexplored ones :P

  
   



Les Seules - Come and play us


Prepped up for the moment,

all braced and fitted out

The brightest kind of brain,

with a stable blood supply.

Every cell in our body is clear on what it's all about

All energized and focused,

you're about to find out why


Come and play us

Co's we won't back down

Come and play us

Started out as automations,

thinking how instead of why

As fit as any badass jock,

you might as well get dressed


Come and play us

Co's we won't back down

Come and play us

There's no way around


... a tingling sensation



I'm happy today, I mean really happy...

I have this great feeling inside of me which makes me smile all the time!

I love it, plz don't go away!!!!


July 13, 2008 - SAGITTARIUS

 
Your mood is unstoppably wonderful today and you ought to have a positive influence on friends, coworkers and family members. It's a great day to kick back and enjoy the energy of the day.

Stupid horoscopes!


Jikes, I'm dead tired... But I made it through the three days from hell when it comes to work :P 12 hours without any breaks, not even ONE. The rest of the month has to be a piece of ass, erhm... I mean cake, compared to them.


What else... I don't think there's nothing new actually, pretty boring week and weekend.


Btw, all the predictions from the daily horoscopes suck! It's all about sweet love and how my days will be filled with tenderness and sweetness... Yeah riiight!!!



More shopping!!!

I don't know why, but shopping makes me happy... It makes me feel good :P
This time I found a pair of shorts from DIESEL.


Sagittarius = Winos


I just found the funniest (and probably the most honest) horoscope yet.


Sagittarius (23/11-21/12)

You are optimistic and enthusiastic. You have a careless tendency to completely trust luck since you are absolutely untalented. The majority of Sagittarius is winos. You are a worthless piece of shit.


w00t in the rain!?

What a great start of the week - rain, rain and guess what, more rain! I'm back in Norrköping for a few days, picking up the bills and looking after my plants ^^ But I like it here, even though I'm not doing anything really...


Anyway, it's time for work on Thursday (it's just for a month though), I got the worst working period to start with, 05:45-18:00 (!!!) and I'm all alone until 17:00... I'll just have to keep thinking money, money, MONEY!


Confessions of a Shopaholic

I did it again... But at least it was on sale!!!


I bought another dress today! Hmm, I wonder what's happening to me, I usually hate dresses and skirts, but I've bought two dresses this week! This one however, is more of an autumn/winter dress, knitted and all black... I also bought a belt! It's actually pretty cool, it has coins attached to it :D Sounds weird, I know, but it looks good! I'll take a picture someday for you to see ;)

This has been a great day actually, I've feeling so happy all day long :D Haha and it's not because of the shopping, I promise!


What's the last thing you purchase? Are you satisfied with it or do you regret buying it?





Behind the scenes - 3 - Bangkok: Freakin' stupid dare!

Queen: "I was chosen to give one person a dare yesterday, and the dare is to put this pyjamas on, jump into the pool and sound like a siren! And the one doing it is you Nat0!"

I wasn't even surprised. I knew she was gonna chose me for this crappy dare... I bet you all my money, that they did it on purpose, just because they ALL knew that I hate water. They just wanted to do it to be mean, and embarrass me in front of the cameras to make me look like a spoiled brat who can't even take a joke... And I think they succeed!



 

It's all about the soup...

... the best soup ever, it's just so freaking tasty! And it's perfect during the summer... Easy to make and just as good cold as it is warm!

I think I'll have another bowl of it!!


Got any tips? Come on... Give it to me!!!

ESWC 2008? Hell no!

Two years ago, pretty much around the exact same date, I was to be found in Paris and competing in the E-Sport World Cup 2006 - The world's biggest E-sport competition.


   
 

I honestly think that 2006 was the best year ever, especially when it comes to sponsors, price money and last but not least - the competition. All the teams had reached their top and the gaming scene had reached its peak. I'm sorry to say, but it all went downhill after that.


I'm happy that I quitted that summer. "Nat0" disappeared from the CS-scene with her head up in the sky while she was one of the best female gamers out there.


However, all the small talk about ESWC nowadays brings back some memories, all good tbh. We managed to finish second and won 9000$ !!

Behind the scenes - 1 - Bangkok: Catfights!!!

I've finally updated another day from the PlayUs-tour, and it's up on MTV , however, it's not pretty ^^ :P On the other hand, if the girls gets pissed of, they all need to remember that it happend two years ago and that I don't feel like that today. Hopefully they'll agree... ;)



Unfortunally the blog is in swedish, but for you who'll understand it, have a sneak peak!
ENJOY!

Sunshine and strawberries

I think it's time to realise that it's time for a bowl of milk, cream, cornflakes and fresh strawberries from the garden. Don't you just love the summer?!


Do you have anything that you just have to have during the summer? Drinks, snacks, food?  


Back to Basics - SWW g0es "plopp!"

Jag bestämde mig för att slänga mig iväg till till Sthlm och närmare bestämt Ösmo i helgen för att träffa en gammal vän till mig - Ann. Vi slog våra kloka huvuden ihop och samlade ett gäng gamla ansikten för att skåla vilt!

  
  
 

Skålandet övergick ganska snabbt till ploppande - "PLOPP!" och snart var jag hes och utan röst efter allt, ja... skönsjungande! Vi alla började nog inse att smaklökarna inte var vad de varit tidigare under dagen och allt smakade plötsligt sliskigt sött.

Tack för en sjukt rolig helg alla! Och Ann, på återseende innan feb. -10 !

Grilla någon?

Dags att slå igång grillen kanske? Förslag på marinad någon?


Nu ska vi se då ;)

Dags att prova att lägga till lite på den här sidan... Vilken tid det tar att hitta nåt som faller en i smaken!



Helgens söt-bild! Så söt var man inte senare på kvällen om man säger så ^^
