Darrande kläder

January 15, 2011

Varför är man rädd att sticka ut? Klädesmässigt alltså. Visst, jag vet, allt det där med grupptillhörighet osv. Men nu snackar jag om oss som säger att vi inte bryr oss om vad nån tycker. Även fast man säger att man inte bryr sig  så gör man ju det ändå innerst inne. Det kan vara vad en enskild person tycker eller vad en grupp tycker. Som jag, jag säger att jag inte följer modet. Jag kör min egen grej och är oftast år före eller, ännu oftare, år EFTER modet. Men man har ändå en spärr i bakhuvudet som begränsar ens val.

Man påverkas av vad andra tycker eller skulle tycka. Man vågar ju inte vara huur konstig som helst. T ex att matcha rosa och orange – det fanns inte i min världsbild att det skulle funka eftersom färgerna skar sig, men när det blev modernt att blanda rosa och orange så var jag inte rädd att blanda två dessa två ovanliga färger. I dessa tider tycker jag t.o.m att det är snyggt! Man säger att man inte bryr sig men ändå vågar man inte go all the way. Jag gillar att go all in, men har sedan Ugly Bettys systersons uttalande lärt mig att Chanel menar att – om outfiten verkar “för mycket” – Take off the last thing you put on. Och det funkar skitbra, verkligen!

Nu när jag är 22 så klär jag mig fortfarande “konstigt” fast på ett mognare sätt än jag gjorde några år sedan (kolla bara http://vonkii.blogg.se :P ). Det känns som att jag psykiskt inte skulle kunna klara av ett jobb där jag inte får klä mig som jag vill eftersom det är en sån stor del av den jag är och förmodligen det enda unika som finns med mig. Jag uttrycker mig genom kläder. Har funderat på att bli stylist ibland men det jag har svårt med är att välja NYA kläder åt främlingar. Även om jag hade lyckats skulle jag förmodligen få folk att se ut som mig. Ok, kanske inte lika extrema men man skulle nog fatta att det är jag som stylat dom. Satt hemma och hjälpte min syrra välja kläder en gång och mina föräldrar sa till henne “du ser ju ut som Veronica!” :P

Min favoritstund på dygnet är utmaningen jag står för inför varenda kväll – Vad ska jag ha på mig imorrn? Utmaningen som kräver att jag väljer ut en outfit som jag vill ha på mig och som jag skulle känna mig bekväm i under morgondagen, en outfit som representerar mig, en outfit som är jag.

Man ska våga klä sig som man vill. Men verkligheten stoppar oss. För i verkligheten måste man anpassa sig. I verkligen tittar folk konstigt på dig om du avviker från normen. I verkligen tycker folk man är konstig som klär sig annorlunda men skulle bli förbannat sura om någon skulle gå klädd likadant som dom själva. Och just det är min största “rädsla”, att någon ska ha samma saker som jag. Visst har det hänt jättemånga gånger men det är lika jobbigt varje gång. Jag vet inte varför. Jag vet inte varför jag stör mig på att jag inte får vara unik.

But then again, alla vill väl vara speciella?


Hit me baby one more time

August 26, 2010

yeah, that’s what babies do when there in someones uterus…

I have lots of friends on Facebook that upload pics of their babies. Some even have them as profilepics. Both swedish, and foreign friends.

Of course I’m happy for the people that have children or are going to have! Just cuz I’m grumpy about it doesn’t mean I hate people for having babies. Just to make that clear =P

I know I’m not old, but I can’t help but feel that time is running out. Running out where? Don’t know. Why am I even in a hurry? It seems like i’m in a hurry, but I’m not. I just make myself feel that sometimes. Yeah… %P

First I have to find someone that loves me (and that I can love in return), but that just doesn’t seem to happen. I am slowly accepting that people like me will never find true love. I don’t think I will be happy for a long period of time (quality). But I think that it might be possible for me to be happy, and think I’m in love, lot of times (quantity). Sure it’s not what I want, but why would the higher powers care about that… *sigh*

Oh well… At least now I have work to focus on. Maybe in time I’ll stop to care.

Let’s hope so.


Nothing else matters…

August 4, 2010

I realized one thing while I was working… My 12-year-old self had really good taste. Cuz even back then my favourite song was Nothing else matters by Metallica. And to this day I think it’s genious. It’s classic, brilliant, beautiful.

Something happens inside me when I hear that intro… <3


My theory

July 26, 2010

I just thought of something. Maybe u know from before that I’ve said that I suck at theory in school, for example. I’m more of a technical person that learns more by doing than by reading.

Well.. I just discovered that I don’t only suck at the theory parts in school, but everywhere!

I was thinking about my violin playing. I’ve played the violin since I was 7 – so for 14 years. But I haven’t touched it for like 6 months since I broke it a bit and haven’t had the desire to fix it =P

Ok. Let’s get to the point. The thing I’m trying to say here is that I was really good at playing the violin, but I’ve always sucked at the theory behind it. Like… I don’t know why this or this note is major or minor (dur eller moll), I just hear it. I don’t understand the theory behind it all when I play by notes, but if I repeat it enough I will remember what it sounds like, but will never understand why.

So over all these years I’ve only remembered what I’ve heard, and not what I’ve seen. Haha, now THAT’S what I call stupid!

Bravo Veronica! Bravo!


Realizations

July 15, 2010

I just realized why I don’t like to borrow things from people. Like clothes and stuff. I don’t mind lending people my stuff but if I would wear someone elses things it feels like I’m cheating on myself and my creativity :S Cuz when it comes to appearance I always work with what I got and make it me. And someone elses stuff is not me.

I’ve also realized… (once again) that what comes fast, goes fast

…and that fate has played me. Real bad. Real hard.

and if something seems to good to be true – it is

…do not trust anyone. If something needs to be done, do it yourself. You are the only person you can depend on

…if you’re lonely – deal with it.

…even bad experiences, are experiences

…when you’re blinded by feelings such as happiness and expectations they won’t last long. Cuz what you expected and hoped would be great, did not turn out that way. I’d rather expect nothing and be surprised, than expecting too much and be let down

…when you think you’re happy for once, a higher power will always find a way to bring you down and break you down into pieces

…to be this negative is not healthy, but it’s being realistic.

And these words of my wisdom make me sad cuz they’re true :(


Too happy to entertain

April 17, 2010

That’s kinda how I feel right now. I mean… I’ve been feeling good for weeks and weeks now, so I haven’t had anything to write or bitch about =P (yeah I know, I can’t believe I’m sad that I’m not sad =P) I wonder when I’m gonna be sad or angry or irritated again so I can write really deep blog posts ;P

Provoke me!

Anyone? -_O


Peace, Danes or Rock’n'roll?

March 23, 2010

I’m sitting here studying and at the same time I’m thinking about the summer and festivals and all <3

I am going to Sweden Rock Festival (pleeeease god let the weather be good this year!) and perhaps Hultsfredsfestivalen. I want to go to Peace & Love since I hear so many great things about it, and I want to go to Roskilde in Denmark for that very same reason.

Where are u going this summer?


Twinkle twinkle little star

March 15, 2010

I have always admired the sky, especially at night when u can see the stars <3  I don’t really know how or when my interest started forming about astronomi and astrology but I know that I’ve always found it magical and intriguing. I mean just look at it!

It’s so perfect and beautiful! When u look up it’s like god put a blanket over u for protection, even though it’s endless. The starry skies are just like poetry. They say so much by just being there, in their place, where they’ve been for centuries, doing nothing that could be seen with the naked eye. And although we can’t see what’s going on from here, we know that explosions, deaths and births are taking place every second out in the universe. For the last centuries we’ve had telescopes, which just make the sky even more beautiful and mysterious.

When I was little I told my dad: “Wow! Look at the stars! They are so beautiful!” And I stood there for a while with my eyes towards the sky. But my dad just glanced up quickly and said: “The stars have been there forever. I have seen the same stars all my life and they always look the same.”

I guess not everyone are as spiritual and fascinated by the small things as others. And of course I can’t ask people to be the same as everyone else, cuz how boring would that be! And if everyone thought the same as me I wouldn’t have any fun trying to convince them otherwise =P

I know u people out there don’t take a minute to just stare at the clear sky at night, but please do! It’s so… peaceful.

May the stars be with u.


Internationella kvinnodagen

March 8, 2010

Today it’s International women’s day, fyi. But I don’t really care.

Good night.


Laundry-junkie

March 2, 2010

How come I do laundry once a week? Other people do it like once a month (ok, maybe twice)! How come u have less clothes to wash than me? Sure I dance a lot and, when it was good weather, used to go for long, sweaty walks. But a lot of the people I know here also work out a few times a week and still manage to go weeks without doing the laundry. When I wear regular clothes and don’t get sweaty in them, or if they don’t smell, I put them back and use them a second time before I throw them in the laundry-basket. I believe I have a lot of clothes in my wardrobe, but geez, I can only imagine how much clothes and underwear other  people have since they can afford to now wash them that rarely (well, to me it’s rarley)…

(Pic: Google)

Now I’m going to town to run some errands. Tomorrow I’m going to Poland.

Na zdrovie!
