So I promised I would do a post/ review on “Café Klædeskabet” in Aalborg.. first of all, I think I might actually do this review in Danish, because after all it is a Danish café.. BUT! if any of you guys who are not from denmark must know, I can highly recommend you stopping by Café Klædeskabet if you’re once in Aalborg, Denmark.

Well, Bare lige så vi har det på det rene; Jeg ELSKER Café Klædeskabet! Det er virkelig bare sådan et hyggeligt sted :)
Atmosfæren er bare “nice and cozy” og stedet er indrettet virkelig flot og kreativt i lækreste vintage-stil.. en gang i mellem ville jeg ønske jeg kunne bo der haha, eller i hvert fald at møblerne var mine ;)
Udover det, er det indrettet sådan at i den ene ende er der “café-område”, hvor folk sidder og spiser og drikker og/ eller arbejder på deres computer eller læser avis og sådan, og i den anden ende er der tøj, sko, tasker og diverse ting man kan se på/ købe – deraf navnet “Café Klædeskabet”, går jeg stærkt ud fra :)

Og så er der maden – for det første er det nogle vildt cool menukort man får lov at kigge i! De har simpelthen sat deres menu ind i LP-covers, super kreativt.
Maden er virkelig lækker – næsten alt er hjemmelavet og det virker alt sammen til at være ret sunde alternativer til ens morgenmad, frokost eller snacks. Jeg har selv prøvet lidt forskelligt hos dem og jeg har elsket det hver gang! 
Sidst jeg var der fik jeg en hjemmebagt grovbolle med tun, spinat, tzatziki og tomat og en af deres smoothies til – min farmor fik det samme at spise som mig, bare med rugbrød i stedet, og så en latte til – det var lækkert! :)
 

Det eneste dårlige jeg har at sige, er at man altså ikke altid kan regne med at der er plads til en når man kommer, for stedet er ikke så stort igen, men det er jo også det der er med til at give det charmen, ellers var det vel ikke et “klædeskab” ;)

Her er et par billeder af stedet:

– Så HUSK! ..hvis I bor i Aalborg, kommer forbi Aalborg eller er tæt på, ville jeg anbefale jer at tage et smut forbi Café Klædeskabet, der ligger på Søndergade 3 – det er SÅ hyggeligt og her til sommer tror jeg vist nok også man kan sidde udenfor, herligt! :)

Tjek deres hjemmeside ud HER for at læse menuen og se de mærker af tøj de bl.a. gemmer i klædeskabet, møs :*

I am SO happy and I feel SO SO proud of myself today!!!.. The reason for that, is that I haven’t used my nasal spray for 3 days now! 3 fucking whole days! I am one little proud girl! :D Wauw, I really sound like an addict right now haha – but really I actually am…..

I’ve been addicted to nasal spray on/ off since I was like 4 years old, so this is like a really big deal for me! ..This last period, I was addicted to it for 18 weeks, and it says on the label on the nasal sprays that you shouldn’t use them for more than max. 10 days in a row, 3 times a day… I used it 6 times a day for 18 weeks… wauw it’s so dumb.. At least, in the end I only used it 2-4 times a day – combined with this saltwater nasal spray I’ve also got.. But 3 days ago, I decided to just stop even though my nose was all clogged up – so I did :) :)

I’ve stopped using nasal spray soooo many times before, and then short after, I was addicted again… I always felt the same way when I stopped, but this time I felt different from any of the other times that I had stopped – And I realized something….. the sadest part is that, I actually found out that it had all been mental.. It was all just up in my head… I thought I was just addicted in the sense of the nasal spray working the opposite way because I had used it too much and that was why I got clogged up the whole time… But it wasn’t like that….. I had actually been addicted to it for real… Everytime my nose was clogged up, it was myself who had created it in my head… Like, you could tell it was that way, because everytime I’ve felt clogged up these past days.. I just had to relax and wait for maybe 30 minutes and then I just wasn’t clogged up anymore… then it happened again, and I did the same thing.. and then it just disappeared?.. This happened over and over again… but today I kinda had it all under control, so I haven’t been clogged up at all today actually! YAY!! I feel good :D I also realized that I’ve really got a problem, ’cause even though I’ve been able to breathe perfectly fine through my nose today, I have been SO close to using my nasal spray! The entire day I’ve had to tell myself “no!” – I really feel like I just need it!!… I think it has had a calming affect on me, and maybe that’s why?.. But it’s kinda sick to think about, that I got to be so addicted……

Well, now I’m just looking forward to hopefully a lot more days without that stupid nasal spray and I will let you guys know how I’m doing, staying away from it in the future – I need to… ’cause what’s really sad is that I know I can’t use nasal spray anymore for the rest of my life, because I can feel that, if I just use it ONCE again in maybe 5 years – BAHM! then I’m right back and addicted again…….. and I don’t want to be, even though I already miss it..

GUYS! Promise me something; DO NOT GET ADDICTED TO NASAL SPRAY….. EVER!!!.. and if you already are… then STOP!.. I’m telling you to stay away from that shit! It can ruin your taste buds and olfaction… just saying – And you don’t want that.. Trust me!

Waaaaauuuww!.. I just did 590 words on nasal spray! haha :D

Goodnight people <3

So I know a lot of people hate valentines… Well, I don’t :)
I like valentines day – So let me just tell you about my valentines day (I know it was like a week ago, but I didn’t have a computer a then – so I haven’t been able to blog about anything that has happened in my life for the past 2 weeks).. Valentines day was also the day my boyfriend and I had been together for 20 months, so it was a “special” day to me ;)

Well, we woke up and ate breakfast and everything every other person does in the morning, you know.. then I took a shower and afterwards I was thrown out of my own apartment by my boyfriend – but only so he could prepare special things for me :)
When I got back home, I opened the door to the living room and saw this:

I read the card from him and the last sentence said I had to look underneath the owl, so I did – and there was…. MOVIE THEATRE TICKETS FOR FUCKING “BEAUTIFUL CREATURES” (a previewing of the movie that same night), I was so happy – I had been dying to watch that movie when it came out! So that was a nice surprise :D

After that surprise, 20 minutes or so past and we had to leave.. My boyfriend took me to this restaurant I just love, called BioMio, for an early dinner – so we had time to take it easy and to get to the movie theatre afterwards.
But well, you should all try to go to BioMio once – their food is so good and it’s all 100% organic! <3 ..Plus, their menu is so different, haha (:

After we finished our meals, we then went to the movie theatre to Watch “Beautiful Creatures” and it was SOOOO good!!! Really, it’s such a good movie – each and every one of you should go watch it! It’s totally worth it :D ..It’s so good I just can’t wait for the last 3 of them to come out!.. AND, also it is so good it actually made me want to read the books!!! WHAT THE HELL!?? (For the people who don’t know this; I don’t read books… In fact I HATE books….. The only books I read are like “DIY”-books and “how to”-books…. So this is pretty impressive, that some movie could make me want to read the books, js)..
And actually…… I already bought the whole series on CDON.dk, now I’m just waiting for them to arrive! Haha, I’m such a geek….. :) 

Well, here I give you some of the other photos from that day (among those are photos of me and my boyfriend wearing awesome heart-shaped 3D-classes, they gave out at the movies, only so we could watch 2 trailers with them, haha):

Ps. I know the focus is set on the background here….

Kentah playing with the leaves :) :)

 I also hope you guys had a great valentines this year :* <3

I’m so sorry I haven’t been blogging for quite some time now, I’ve just been sick since sunday night, so I didn’t really feel like it..

Btw. I’m so fucking tired of being sick all the time…. I get sick almost every single time I decide to do something good and healthy for myself and my body – Friday, my boyfriend and I decided to start working out a lot more, than what we’ve been doing so far since we joined our local fitness center and we actually made a plan for this week, so we would actually do it, which said we had to exercise 4 days out of the 7… – Then I got sick… and you shouldn’t exercise when you’ve caught a cold and a fever.. 
This happens to me ALL THE FUCKING TIME!..

I remember a little over 2 years ago; I’ve been struggling with losing weight and finding the motivation and the right way to do it since I got back home from America (in 2009), where I was living and going to school as an exchange student for a year – I had gained over 10 kilos while staying there… In the mid-end of 2010 I finally found my motivation! I went to the gym 5-6 days a week (some weeks 7 days a week), while trying to eat as healthy as I could (while living at home) and then I went on a “no-sugar”-diet as well(which to me meant, no candy, no cake, no soda, no chips, no ice cream, no chocolate, no white bread, pasta or rice etc.). It all went so well! But in the beginning I actually only gained weight, and I was so sad because my weight just kept going up, even though I knew it was just muscles and even though I knew I lost centimeters all over my body – I just didn’t like to see the weighing scale go up all the time… Well, finally after gaining a little over 6 kilos of muscle, I started losing weight – fat, this time! I was so overly super happy that day, I remember, and it just got me even more motivated – What I was doing was working – my hard work was paying off!
BUT! I didn’t get to lose more than about 3 kilos of fat before all of my hard work was ruined…….. In december 2010, I got mono (aka. the “kissing disease”) and I just couldn’t do anything else than lie in my bed or on the couch for a month.. I lost weight rapidly, just not in a good way.. ’cause what I lost was all of the muscle I had just built up, and while that was happening I gained all of the fat I had just lost – which meant; I was now set back to square one.. 
I started school again in january 2011, even though I wasn’t all better yet, and wasn’t allowed to speak for 2 weeks, because I was that hoarse and had almost completely lost my voice for 5 weeks at that point.
In april 2011, I could finally start exercising again, but I had to start up slowly – I was in such a bad shape and had the worst condition EVER, right there.. I could only stay on the cross trainer for 5 minutes, tops! – and that was actually pushing myself to the limit.

Well, at least I’m in better shape now, but I’ve been fighting to get my motivation back ever since…. and every time I get it back, I get sick… So I mean it’s really like someone just doesn’t wants me to succeed.. It’s really like someone just wants to make it hard for me.. I really don’t get it?
Well, that was it.. I was just trying to make out my point with an example – I know it was sort of a loooooong example though, haha sorry :)

I so hope I’m feeling better tomorrow so I can start working out and eating healthy again! :D 

Goodnight, I need to get some more rest now :*

I’m tired… I’m so tired of always “having to be” this super overly happy Silje, which I almost always seem to be, unless people know me to the core.
I’m tired of smiling and laughing when all I really want is to crumple up in a corner and just cry.
I’m tired of being tired and I’m tired of that I just cannot act “normal” and be in a plain mood, when that is how I really feel…. Just plain – simple… ordinary… no pattern….. just… one color.   
Why do I keep making myself seem even happier than I am when I am at my happiest.. when I am really dying inside?
I’ve put myself in this situation. I can’t get out. This is how I am in their eyes. Always….
If I stop pretending now, they’d think I had changed. They’d think I wasn’t being me. They’d think something would be wrong. Because this is how it is. This is who I am.

They think they know, they know me. The truth is; they don’t. They only know the façade.
A couple of times they’ve seen, through tiny holes, what’s hiding behind the walls I built – but they’ve never seen what’s hiding in the caves.

I wish I could stop putting a mask on. I’m not in control. It’s like I do not have a choice. But… I know I have a choice. My “select” button just broke – and I’m too broke to fix it.

I’m sorry if this post was too melancholic, I normally don’t do these sorts of posts, but I just had to get some things out of my system… If you don’t like posts like this, that’s okay, this is mostly just for myself.
I got the inspiration, for letting my feelings out this way, from my boyfriends sister, who’s got a blog as well.
This is her video, which inspired me (it’s in danish though):

Ps. I might do a post or two more – this style – I’m not done yet.

Goodnight :)
