Extreme home make-over and exciting news



I'm planning to do a lot more of outfitposts from now on. I redecorated my kitchen (well, obviously I haven't painted yet), so I created enough space to take photos there, seeing as it's the only place in my house with good light.

There will be a lot more redecorating going on in the foreseeable future. My friend Clara is moving in and all her painting and rearranging and cleaning is motivating me to finally make my room feel like a home; paint my walls a nice colour (taupe maybe?), paint some furniture, put up pictures, mirrors, cleaning out my closets...

BIG NEWS, too! If all goes well Daniel will move here at the end of December. It's so unreal that it might finally be happening. It gives me all kinds of feelings, most of which are along the line of excited, exhilarated, etc. We've been in a long distance relationship for nearly two years. On the other hand I'm quite nervous, there's a lot to be arranged. Plus I've never lived with a boyfriend before, so it's pretty exciting. And I'll miss my home and my friends in Sweden, but luckily we can still visit whenever, plus our apartment is being taken over by a friend, so there's a chance of going back in a few years time.

Everything will work out beautifully, anyway: being with Daniel will take away so much of the sadness that's been bringing me down, making me boring and demotivated and tired and reclusive, making me not want to do anything at all. So, you can expect Laura 2.0 from 2011 on. I'll keep boring you with every little detail until then, of course.

I've been replying most of my big big stack of emails (so sorry for the delay). I just wanted to say that however futile and ridiculous this blog might seem to most people, I really really appreciate all the love I get from you, you give me so much support and strength, I wish I could know all of you in real life and give you back the love you deserve.

I got it layered, which makes a really big difference. And then I use volume mousse and then right before these photos hairspray, hairspray, hairspray!

Thanks everyone!
