My day:

started with me re-coloring my hair pastel purple. As I got out of the shower I slipped on some water and sprained my left ankle. Wrapped it in real tight as fast as I could to keep it from swollen.

Then I jumped in my SAAB 9000 CSE to a mother who wanted help with her daughters wedding dress. After 2 hous I had to get back home.

At home I prettied myself up in front of the mirrow, and 16:00 my friend Magnus (from the swedish, but internationally known electro band Colony 5) came over to take some pictures of me. They turned out quite pretty i might add! :) Colony 5 played the Wave Gothic Treffen this year, and will also play at M'era Luna in August.

Then I filmed some, and now I'm so tired I feel like I'm about to fall asleep in the middle of this sentence...but I wo....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

This is how the coffee break turned out!
Fairlight baked chocolate cupcakes at daycare today :)
It would be nice if they ended up like this!
I'm making puff pastry horns for the kids and I'm getting crazy from searching after my nougat!!! I'm starting to think my husband had something to do with it....

Okey, I have to figure something out. Perhaps whipped vanilla cream with nutella instead? Yeah, they'd like that...or strawberry jam and whipped cream... No, nutella it is.

This is a real cheat-baking! Not my thing really, but I have to clean out my freezer and I haven't got the time either. But they deserve something special - it's FRIDAY!
My new fangs :) And yes - they are "real"...in the meaning they can't be removed without me going to the dentist. My dentist said, after he finished, "-They are brutal!" And I can only agree!

I love my new fangs <3

Wednesday, June 9, 2010

Shit! My new fangs are so long I can't even eat crackers and brie! I have to break the crackers to pieces. Holy macarony! I think you deserve a photo tomorrow :)
I've been away all day on a business-trip :) Got up at 03:00 - it's sick!
Tomorrow I have an early appointment at 07:10 with my dentist to get my fangs freshened up. Hope they will turn out fine and sharp. I always tend to bite my lip when I've re-done them. Dangerous!

Asperger Synthdrome

Just before our gig this Saturday :)
Our band is called Asperger Synthdrome.
I can't figure out who's me?
The concert was SO MUCH FUN!!!!

Tomorrow I'll be on a trip, but I will post some more from the festival asap. Live shots :)

Right now

Me and my cute sister on my balcony right now :) Ha ha, we look like tourists in Turkey or something!!

Ihhh - tomorrow is when we'll be on stage with our band Asperger Synthdrome playing for the first time. We'll be at the Vince Festival, Karlskrona, Sweden. But, of cause, I will put it up on youtube later :)

Vince Festival

I have absoulutely NO idea how to do my make up on stage tomorrow!? Perhaps my sister have some great idea?
I feel like I wanna look kind of NOT so much things in the face, no swirls or spiderweb, just "ordinary" goth make up. But later, after our gig, I want to "Adora" me. That might sound strange cause most people will most certanly have an extended version of themselves on stage, but I want to do it reversed for some strange reason. Maybe my sister can whip it out of me.

Vince Festival

I'm so happy about a "secret" I'm gonna announce on stage on Saturday!

And then I'm totally stressed out about my own performance. We only sing 5 songs, but I have an extreme short memory (for real, it's a BIG problem for me since I never remember people or names. I'm always so scared I'll offend someone), so it's awful for me to remember the texts. I think I have to Scotch some notes on the floor.

Disgusting - be aware!

Yesterday our daughter Fairlight did a SUPER-PUKE! My husband was away so I had to take care of it! Ick!

She puked all evening, poor thing, but the rest ended up in a bowl. The first one landed on her, the sofa and the floor, about 50 centimeters in diameter. I almost died mopping it up!
And then I got panic! What if I get sick!!! I'm having a festival on Saturday, I can't be sick now! Well, if I get sick today that will probably be okay, and then I will also look extra thin on stage ;) You see, I always think positive..

Men

Yesterday I think I got a dab on the head!!!

You know how sometimes you're in a situation where you really can't figure out what's going on, but later it's something about it that disturbes you about the situation? That happened to me yesterday.

The thing with these things it that the signals are so subtle you can't even tell that person he/she is far out...because then you're a fucking whine who took it the wrong way...
And I must say I was so surprised this person felt so intimidated by me, that I could not defend myself!
But if I feel I got a dab on the head, I got it! It's in the eye of the receiver.

And, no, it was NOT my husband..

The Swedish electro scene

One thing: I really dislike people who think you can live on old qualifications! "-I used to be cool too, and had black nails and make up." Ok, so??? Do it now then and I'll respect it. I can understand people who doesn't do it everyday because of work, but what about clubnights?
The electro scene in Sweden is dying - and I can understand why.
Who want's to be a part of something where most active are older (like me), fat and stuck up to believe they are better then someone new to the electro scene just because they happened to be teens in the 80's?

I became part of the electro subculture because of its fashion, its amazing haircuts and the make up as well as the music. If Dave Gahan of Depeche Mode had looked like this sailorboy I would never had payed any attention. Kids needs people to look up to, to romanticise about, to be their rolemodels. I for sure, can't feel resembles to "ordinary" looking people. Dave sat my heart on fire, and by 1981 he had sweet make up and a nosepiercing.

To stop the Swedish electro scene from going straight to the grave we need to show the younger public we still are a part of this subculture. For GOD's sake - use the kohl kajal, not just talk about how cool you used to be when you used it. Being old is NOT about being stuck up and yawn. Where did the happiness and the creativity go? THAT my friends is why the Swedish electro scene is dying.... (Adora in a mood)

EUROVISION 2010 WINNER - GERMANY - Lena "Satellite"

I'm making pattern and cutting silk fabric :)

Stumbled over this picture - and, ahhhh, how I miss my blue hair. It looked so gorgeous in the cityscape.

And todays best make up tip is: if you wake up with a red eye - use red make up to make it less obvious. Everyone will just look at that red make up and be horrified. You can also make it look like you cry blood.

What's my style (if any)?

I have a dilemma!
Sometimes I get asked what's my style. In my head I think "Easy, I'm a "synthare" (swedish for electro-oriented subculture)."
But outside of Sweden there is no such word as "Synthare". So I'm guessing electro-goth for the music.
But how to describe my looks?
¨
Based on my videos for example - what would one call my style.
Me, myself, think the style is swedish gothic lolita with some elements from military and new romantic style...with a tad of visual kei???? But that takes VERY long time saying...
How would you describe my style? I'm lost!?
