I had the most wonderful Brunch...

Yesterday, I went with some friends to the coast to Denmark. We had a picnic by the beach, we bathed and had a generally nice time. I had brought some lentil-bread, some homemade tuna-mixture and some homemade jam. The recipes: you'll find'em here at the Blog.

Why does time escape?(!)

Hello Blogosphere

Today, I feel like the only thing I've managed to do since seven thirty AM, is that I've taken a bike ride in to the city (to buy fortune cookies, of which I will naturally blog once I've tried them). I have of course, as well, taken two walks, though since I do that everyday, that doesn't feel like the greatest achievement.

Tomorrow, however, I will make a day trip to Helsingborg with some friends. I am in this very moment making lentil-bread (will post the recipe as soon as I possibly can), which I will bring as nosebag.

This Evening, I am as well trimming my leg-muscles, I am also stretching using a new breathing technique, which I will describe thoroughly in a post.

Health-Guru Oskar Informs


Hello Blogosphere!

I know that I didn't update yesterday, but luckily Julia did so... Yesterday was one of those 'lazy-days' if you know what I mean - didn't quite get anything done... I decided, yesterday, however, that today would be better - that is to say, more of a constructive day, on which was supposed to do both yoga, cooking, blogging and writing - Well you see how well that unraveled... Not so, I have done yoga, cooking and soon blogging - but mostly, I've just chilled - But what the heck, it is summer-holidays, n'est-ce pas?

Anyway, the reason why I'm blogging, disregarding the fact that I feel that I must, is that I, today, have discovered a healthier lifestyle (or something). "Yeah", I know, It sounds like one of those rags like "Se&hör" (in Sweden) (Something like 'star' in the united states) (seriously doubt that such crap magazines exists in Britain). How much it ever might sound like something taken from a rag, I must say I consider it a sincere assertion. You see, yesterday, I saw the most exiting teaser on the series 'Sex Education Show' with the lovely, fresh and upfront reporter Anna Richardson. I decided that, I'd check on TV3Play (The Swedish channel 3's on Demand-service) to see whether I could watch the last episode there... I couldn't...

Instead I checked whether 'youtube.fr' offered anything on the subject. It did and there I also found out that the commercially powered British channel4 served it on Demand. A few (swear)words of delight might have slipped me at this point :-P

Link Channel4;
( http://sexperienceuk.channel4.com/sex-education/season/archives/season-1 )

Thus, I watched about 14 or so episodes of 'Sex Education Show' earlier today. It is not as bad as it sounds though. This isn't one of those 'porn-shows' actually is educative and informative. It is hard to explain, I can promise you that, But the show doesn't make you feel filthy, had you been watching 'Another Gay Movie', it makes you feel healthy, self-ascertained and confident. It does not make you feel deficient in anyway - au contraire - I promise.

Another thing I discovered today, Is that eating is not as hard as I earlier thought. You see, with all those diet-tips out there one feels rather uncomfortable - can I eat that - Oh my god it has 15% fat... So forth. It wasn't like I was following a diet or so but you know, one tend to be affected (especially since I was rather over-weight as a child). Today, however, I read a part of my old cooking-class-book from compulsory-school and I found that the method used in that book was so simple. When it's party, it's party and when it's not, it's not. So don't eat 'wasted calories' (candy, cookies and chips etc.) when it's and everyday-day. When there's a party - sure have some, but not too much. Another tip, which I really liked was that, that once a week one should eat a meat-free-meal. Meat is expensive, deficient and bad for the environment, so eat less.

This was tips from 'tha' Health-Guru

Exhausted!


Today, we've got a temperature of about 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit) in Sweden. The atmospheric humidity is very high and I feel nothing less than exhausted... I wonder if this has to do with the heat and the humidity for in that case, I don't think I like this heat very much - it makes every muscle in my body feel exhausted had I trained for hours, not to mention that it makes my head go foggy...

Have you experienced or are you experiencing this? Do you mayhap know why we're feeling like this? Please leave a comment :-)

And by the way the coffee isn't making anything better either...

Stretch it, stretch it and stretch it!

Today, after having taken a walk at ten past midnight, I did some stretching, trying to reach a split. My muscles felt tense and they disliked my attempts...

The cellular telephone, the, according to many indispensable gadget

Greetings readers!

As you might have read, or assembled, from what I've written here at the Blog, my cellphone has taken a bath (in the salty Mediterranean sea). I have used an old cellphone for about two weeks now and I'm longing to buy a new one. Though there's much to consider before buying a new telephone, not least, the price.

However, the loss of my telephone was not as horrible as it might seem to you; I had been looking for a new one for quite a while (since January). In February, I saw a prototype of the telephone Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 mini pro - an Android smartphone... I saw the potential in the gadget at once of course; that it had Android as an OS (Operating System) was a clear advantage; not to mention the seriously well-spaced qwerty-keyboard.

For those of you who don't know; android is the clear contestant to Apple's OSX -with the slight difference that android stands for freedom whilst Apple stands for chauvinism (I wouldn't expect you iPhone-lovers to comprehend...).

However, with that telephone, which by the way was out on the shelves two (or three I'm not certain) days ago, I'll be able to blog while on the go - Isn't that great!

We'll see whether I'll buy that telephone or not.

Merry strawberry :-)


Hello Blogosphere!

I've been picking strawberries today, nice little berries they are. And as I rid my bicycle ten miles to them they were even more delicious. 'Now why on earth did he ride his bike ten bloody miles just to pick some strawberries?' you might ask yourselves.
Well, actually I rid about twenty miles, you see I rid it back home again, but that's not the point... There are several reasons why I did this; but primarily because I was going to do some sort of exercising anyway and by riding my bicycle I saved both money and the environment. And also, the good weather did invite one to do something outdoors, didn't it? And by riding the bicycle, I got a chance to do some more of that stretching I promised you (the split challenge).

Well this was my afternoon...

Überfail...

Hello Readers!

Today I woke up early so that I would be able to listen to the radio show called Rix Morgon Zoo; you see I thought, that I'd heard that the famous baker Leila Lindholm would be on the show. Thus I alarmed my cellular telephone...

After having ascended at ten to six and then having listened about an hour and 15 minutes, however, I thought it odd, that nothing whatsoever had been said about Leila... So I did some reseach and (WHY!) she had been on the show last Friday... Oh yes; dot dot dot

Why didn't I bloody check that last night...

No matter, though; now i got to blog somewhat, didn't I? (Something I haven't been so keen on doing this weekend) (Sorry about that) Hope you liked the short stories, though - because I'm becoming rather fond of them.
