congratulations to the team behind #InABetterWorld for winning an #Oscar!
On the road again
The weekend flew by and we’re all back on the road again. The week has come off to a good start at work; positive vibes all over. This week is full of meetings and preparations of different sorts but hopefully I’ll be able to keep cool, calm and collected… Finishing off the week at work baking the traditional “fastelavns” buns - and slightly panicking about getting a...
Eurovision
So tonight’s the night for the Danish part of Eurovision. And yes, I know it’s so uncool to be fascinated by this show but I can’t help it, actually I wont. It’s too much fun! The outfits, the live singing, dancing, the short corny pop songs - everything put together makes a great show - especially because no matter how bad the songs are, there’s always at least one...
listening to “Mad World” by Michael Parsberg feat. Safri Duo & Isam B; very cool cover version of the Tears for Fears classic.

This has really been a day of remembering the “old days”… And all because of the East 17 video posted by Sus. She has indeed been my “comrade in fun and foolish things”. Flying to MTV in London, to sit in Club Bed, when E17 was in the studio… We flew in the middle of the night, had no map of…
Dinner and a movie
No, not a date - just out with my cousin Sara. Talking about family, friends, life in general. We are like yin/yang, black/white - completely different but still we love and respect each other. Do we annoy each other and disagree about most? YES, frequently, but we’re still able to have a good time. So here’s to differences of opinions, looks, way of life, and just oddball thinking!
The lovely Agnes Obel. Beautiful music, beautiful woman. http://twitpic.com/42lzg5

get on with it or get it on?
The holiday is over
It was hard getting up this morning, first day after the holiday. I could really use some more! But luckily the students are a bit slow as well so no stress there;-)
Am getting ready for a spinning lesson a little later, not sure my body is quite up to it…
congratulations to Niels Arden Oplev and all of the team behind “Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” for winning a Bafta - excellent!

Circle of life
Today I’ll be supporting my best friend as she is saying goodbye to her mother who died peacefully, but suddenly Wednesday. I can’t imagine how hard that must be - knowing you’ll never see your mom again and packing down all the things from a childhood home. No matter how good the relationship is, some things are left unsaid and undone - gratefulness, love, wishes, needs,...
I am suspecting a very cool video…! Take That - «Kidz» [Brit Awards 2011] [HD] http://t.co/spXkI7x via @youtube
mutual blog?

Oooh, that is soooo cool, Sus!!! That’s our blog - together?!!! Did you make it, I mean design it? It is beautiful, I love it! So we can post things that kind of relate to us both, instead of reblogging? I LIKE IT!!!
You are the best friend!
arrrggghhhh, coffee overkill! Stomach is apparently not too happy with the recent intake of liquids… must try to slow down…

Vinnie Who on the stereo, getting ready for the weekend. Excellent music!
A bit of light reading
I will treat myself today with time to read - and read fiction for a change. So the tea kettle is on, couch and blanket awaiting, and of course the book. Got it at Christmas from a friend and her daughter. It’s a tale of a very sweet and polite boy who accidentilly ends up in hell, primed to be the new leader… “The Devil’s Apprentice”. Fantasy, fun, and not just for...
Finally Friday
Goodmorning all round - it might be grey, dull, and cold outside but it doesn’t matter. It’s the last day before weekend and soon I’ll be going skiing and relaxing, drinking wine, talking, having fun: can’t wait! Norway is the destination - looking forward to seeing the landscape, enjoy the fresh air and glorious sun.

zu-zu-zumba
Zumba-ing all day with pupils at school - not all equally talented in rhythm & music feeling… Had a great day, though, and finished off with everybody singing “Afrika”. Positive vibes all over! Teaching is sometimes pretty darn good;-)

finished my zumba/dance routine - on top of things and it’s not even 4 pm;-)
Short work day today so I’m home early getting ready for tomorrow. I have checked to see that no cameras or any kind of recording gear has been put up in the living room as I am about to to practice zumba-moves… It wont be pretty - but lots of fun, especially tomorrow where hundreds of pupils will try to keep up! What a laugh!
Going to the cinema later - mmmm, popcorn, soft seats and...
off to bed. Will enjoy the silence = absence of howling winds making my wooden house creak;-) Good nite, folks - sweet dreams everywhere!
a storm is approaching again. It sounds pretty bad here in my small tree house but it’s probably nothing - not like “Downunder” anyway…
tender tuesday
Getting home from work I realized that both today and yesterday were pretty good work days; usually these are the toughest days for me at school with long hours and music lessons that require extra “voice” skills… But maybe thoughts of the upcoming holiday have put their magic into all our heads and given us some positive energy to go throughout the day. Whatever it is,...

stormy monday
well, it’s about to get stormy here and the house is already making more sounds than usual… but the wood will last, bending and creaking;-) it’s a very autumn-like feel.
