Life: A Fantastic Gift!

Hello all!

If you read this post I wrote a couple of days ago, you'll know that I've finally graduated! Oh how life is wonderful!

This past week has truly been amazing - dare I even say the best week of my life?
It all started Monday, when I graduated - a day jam-packed with happiness and wonderful memories. Tuesday I had the day off, which was quite the lucky thing, since I was completely worn out from Monday.

Wednesday, Kasper and I had the most amazing day together - nothing spectacular happened (( except, of course, life and happiness )), but we spent the day taking a long walk, taking a lot of pictures, shooting personal videos and having the time of our lives. We made what seemed like 10 pounds of delicious gourmet pasta, ate, laughed and had fun. Oh, and Kasper is a
(( phenomenal !!! )) photographer, so in the evening he took a lot of gorgeous pictures of different things in my home - stay tuned for an upcoming post!

Thursday I attended the final graduating ceremony at my school - I met up with my other friends and graduates, we got our diplomas and had such a fun time. Later, Kasper came by and picked me up, and we went home to my place where we totally crashed! Luckily, there was a lot of delicious leftovers from the day before, so we ate like kings and watched Shrek and in general, just had fun.

And finally yesterday, Friday, I had a get-together with the old gang - if you've been following f&f for a couple of years, you might remember me mentioning them from time to time. The old gang is a group of friends I met a couple of years ago, and even though we've been separated for a year now, we've stayed in touch. And then yesterday, we met up and had a fantastic time together! First, we met at the old school (( which probably was the last time I'll ever be there - wow, that's a weird feeling )) since that was where it all started, and then went to the park for a couple of hours and then later, we ended up at a bar in town. We had such a fun time rolling the dice, laughing it up and screaming ourselves hoarse! I ended up going to bed at 3.30, and today I have almost no voice!

So yes, these past days have truly been amazing, wonderful and full of laughter - I now have the most amazing memories to last me a life time, and I'm just so utterly and completely and truly happy!

(We've got these) Days of Summer

So yesterday was Graduation Day for all of my friends who are graduating this Summer - and it's quite a lot of them actually. I've met a lot of awesome and cool people whilst studying at VUC Roskilde, and it just so happens that a lot of them are graduating this year.
Every year the school has a kind of "ceremony" for the graduates, and this year it was held at Roskilde's finest hotel, Hotel Prindsen. Me and Maria were supposed to be there at 4 to see our friends, but unfortunately Maria's train was delayed, so we ended up being quite late. But it didn't matter much, since we couldn't see anything anyway.

So we, Maria, some of our other friends and I, decided to walk the short way to our school, where the "after party" was held. Little by little people started showing up, and spirits were high - mostly, or at least partly, because of the cheap champagne bar in our old cafeteria (haha).
Me and the gang bought some take out, we drank beer and champagne (well, you know, I didn't - I drank alcohol free apple cider) and had such a fun fun fun time. Luckily the weather was okay, so we sat out in the chilly - but lovely - Summer evening sun and just laughed, smoked ciggys and had a lot of fun!
I got to see and say congratulation to all of my graduating friends - and if any of you are reading this, then I'd just like to say: Holey moley, you guys did it! I'm so happy for you; CONGRATULATIONS!

Hope your day is shaping up to be a great one

- I'll see you tomorrow ❤

Marie was looking lovely as always 

- look at that chick; even when she's making faces she's stunning!

Maria thought it would be funny to block Preben in when he came back from the bathroom

It didn't face him though, and he and Vineet were chillin' as always

And this table looked a lot worse by the time we went home :)

Guess what I'm doing tonight...

Grotesque Burlesque - Some Pictures From Saturday

As you all know by now, I attended a burlesque party in Copenhagen on Saturday. It was a fantastic evening filled with drinks, dancing, cigarettes and fantastic costumes. The dresscode was pretty strict, and I even heard that some people were sent away due to the lack of the right ensemble. I thought I looked pretty good, however not as far out and special as the other ladies I attended the party with.
Well, now I know, and next time I'm going all out, haha :)
Anyway, here are some pictures from Saturday - enjoy!

This was what I wore; my new dress from the "Swan by Clements Riberio" line done for Evans. As I said, I did feel very pretty and certainly more overdressed than normal. However, it turned out that I was wildly underdressed at the party. And by the way; yes I know my shoelace is untied, haha :)

The wonder twins; Marie and Ida. I always feel so inadequate standing next to them; they're so different but still so so so gorgeous! 

Me and Marie. Marie hadn't planned her outfit at all, and she still ended up being one of the prettiest girls at the party. This picture was taken outside on the smoking terrace, where we took many breaks to smoke and "de-sweat".

And this is me and Ida, Marie's twin sister. Ida is the prettiest plus size girl I know; she's covered in tattoos but she's still so incredibly feminine.

And finally me - this picture you've seen :) We were lucky in getting a couple of seats right next to the dance floor. When we weren't dancing or smoking, I was memorized by all of the cool people in fantastic costumes. Next time I'll be one of them ;)
