Beach 2012

Its a year ago today that I feel in the slope and folded my left elbow the wrong way. Its still not a happy camper, but finally I can start working out properly. Have to be careful not to over work it and not fast unplanned moves. Yes weight in the wrong way & it disconnects itself.

Last week I did sign up for the gym again and it feels so good to be able to work the entire boody again. Its quite amazing fast you feel you body tightening up when working the muscles. Its also scary in how bad shape I'm in.

Since its Mexico this summer there will not be much beach 2011 (rings a bit wrong doesn't it). I will be working 6-7 days a week and will not be living by the ocean.

Cards on the table

If you say that you wanna be my friend. stop pretending when I'm not around and when I'm around stop giving me lame excuses why you don't have time to catch up.

Lanky bird

Sometimes that as on Facebook capture my mind.

Lanky bird is one of those. Its a shop for tall women and to be honest there have been a couple of things that I would love to complement my wardrobe with:

Its a shame that my student budget don't agree with their prices (no they are not that expensive I'm just really really poor at the moment)

How to ell when you food is spoiled

Sorry I just had to show you this list. On this site you an find other good list.

THE GAG TEST
Anything that makes you gag is spoiled (except for leftovers from what you cooked for yourself last night).

EGGS
When something starts pecking its way out of the shell, the egg is probably past its prime.

DAIRY PRODUCTS
Milk is spoiled when it starts to look like yogurt. Yogurt is spoiled when it starts to look like cottage cheese. Cottage cheese is spoiled when it starts to look like regular cheese. Regular cheese is nothing but spoiled milk anyway and can't get any more spoiled than it is already.
Cheddar cheese is spoiled when you think it is blue cheese but you realize you've never purchased that kind.

MAYONNAISE
If it makes you violently ill after you eat it, the mayonnaise is spoiled.

FROZEN FOODS
Frozen foods that have become an integral part of the defrosting problem in your freezer compartment will probably be spoiled (or wrecked anyway) by the time you pry them out with a kitchen knife.

EXPIRATION DATES
This is NOT a marketing ploy to encourage you to throw away perfectly good food so that you'll spend more on groceries. Perhaps you'd benefit by having a calendar in your kitchen.

MEAT
If opening the refrigerator door causes stray animals from a three-block radius to congregate outside your house, the meat is spoiled.

BREAD
Sesame seeds and Poppy seeds are the only officially acceptable "spots" that should be seen on the surface of any loaf of bread. Fuzzy and hairy looking white or green growth areas are a good indication that your bread has turned into a pharmaceutical laboratory experiment.

FLOUR
Flour is spoiled when it wiggles.

LETTUCE
Bibb lettuce is spoiled when you can't get it off the bottom of the vegetable crisper without Comet. Romaine lettuce is spoiled when it turns liquid. (We didn't think you needed guidance with this one)

CANNED GOODS
Any canned goods that have become the size or shape of a softball should be disposed of.

Carefully.

CARROTS
A carrot that you can tie a clove hitch in is not fresh.

RAISINS
Raisins should not be harder than your teeth.

POTATOES
If it looks like it is ready for planting, toss it.

CHIP DIP
If you can take it out of its container and bounce it on the floor, it has gone bad.

EMPTY CONTAINERS
Putting empty containers back into the refrigerator is an old trick, but it only works if you live with someone or have a maid.

UNMARKED ITEMS
You know it is well beyond prime when you're tempted to discard the Tupperware along with the food. Generally speaking, Tupperware containers should not burp when you open them.

GENERAL RULE OF THUMB
Most food cannot be kept longer than the average life span of a hamster. Keep a hamster in or nearby your refrigerator to gauge this

Mexico monkey business

My newest addtion to the blog family:

Mexican monkey business is fully dedicated to my master thesis, travel and rest of my Mexico adventure.

Seriously

I just got my Ipod nano back after handing it in to be looked at. Have not been happy with the battaries in it.

They didn't find anything wrong with it so had to pay 350 sek for it. Not a problem as long as it works properly. Gonna use it today so plug it into my computer to charge the batteries and they have reformatted it for me for MAC. For a MAC my computer is a WINDOWS and whenI handed it in it was formatted for WINDOWS.

Have now spent the last halfohour adding the music I had on it!!

Seriously if you are going to reformat it refomat it right!!!!!!!

Colourful heels part 2

I had a craving for these heels for ages and since I'm not three apples tall I needed another solution. Yes I know I have a couple of coloured heels in my shoe closet but its spring then you need bright colours.

I bought a pair of white pumps on sale & spray painted them brihgt yellow for a dress up party (Sorry din't have time to take a before picture). realized as soon as they were put on that these will be awsome for spring (when ever it arrives).

I just have to get the hell back on and repaint them. Turns out they weren't dry enough when I had to wear them (Oops).
No happy thought that the rubber heels fell of after about 2 hrs of wearing indoors. If I hadn't painted them I would have gone back with them even if they were on sale that is not ok.
