Melodifestivalen 2015: Semi-final 4.

I watched the fourth semi-final of “Melodifestivalen 2015” on SVT Play tonight.
 
I didn't watch Semi-final 3 last week, I only listened to the songs afterwards. I liked Jon Henrik Fjällgren the most and he will be competing in the Final.

MY TOP 3 FAVORITES IN SEMI-FINAL 4 WERE:
1. Måns Zelmerlöw - Heroes.
2. Dinah Nah - Make Me (La La La).
3. JTR - Building It Up.
 
Måns Zelmerlöw was 1 of the 2 winners in Semi-final 4 so he will be competing in the Final.
Dinah Nah ended up on place 3/7 along with another contestant so she will get another chance in the Second chance round.
JTR was the other winner in Semi-final 4 so they will also be competing in the Final.

Second chance round is on March 7. And the Final is on March 14.

❝The Theory of Everything❞.

On Saturday me and my aunt Emelie went to the cinema to see “The Theory of Everything”.
 
If you have heard about the movie you probably know that the movie is based on Stephen Hawking and Jane Wilde Hawking's life together. It's actually based on Jane Wilde Hawking's memoir “Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen” which deals with her relationship with her ex-husband Stephen Hawking, his diagnosis of motor neuron disease and his success in physics.
 
I think the movie was beautiful and it was really good! Eddie Redmayne did a really great performance as Stephen Hawking! Even though Stephen's disease is nothing to joke about, the movie was actually quite funny and Stephen seems to have a really good humour!
 
I had read some reviews before I saw the movie and I definitely think the movie deserves it's good reviews. The movie and the actors have also been nominated in the BAFTA Awards, Golden Globes and in the Oscars. The movie won a BAFTA Award for Outstanding British Film and Eddie Redmayne won both a BAFTA Award and a Golden Globe for Best Actor and early this morning I was watching the Academy Awards on SVT Flow so I got to see when he won an Oscar which he really deserves!

Paul Wesley Limited Edition Cat Tee.

Early last week I got this “Paul Wesley Limited Edition Cat Tee”.
 
Paul Wesley designed it to raise funds for The Humane Society of the US and it was sold on Represent.
 
I'm definitely a “crazy cat lady” who absolutely loves cats and I like Paul Wesley in “The Vampire Diaries” so I had to get this tee when I saw it. I actually found it randomly on the Represent website and luckily it was 3 days left of the campaign at the time so I had to buy it!

Melodifestivalen 2015: Semi-final 2.

I watched the second semi-final of “Melodifestivalen 2015” yesterday evening on SVT Play, so that's why this blog-post is published a bit late once again this week.
 
MY TOP 3 FAVORITES IN SEMI-FINAL 2 WERE:
1. Linus Svenning - Forever Starts Today.
2. Mariette - Don't Stop Believing.
 
I didn't really like any of the songs in the Semi-final 2 but the two songs above are the ones I liked most.
Linus Svenning ended up on place 3/7 along with another contestant so he will get another chance in the Second chance round.
Mariette was 1 of the 2 winners in Semi-final 2 so she will be competing in the Final.

Semi-final 3 is on February 21. Semi-final 4 is on February 28. Second chance round is on March 7. And the Final is on March 14.

805 Million Names - Zlatan Ibrahimović.


“On 14 February 2015, Paris Saint-German played against Caen at Parc des Princes. For most players this game was just another day on the job. For Zlatan Ibrahimović this was his most important game to date. 

Underneath his sweater he had 50 new names tattooed. Names of people he’d never met, but still wanted to keep close. Names of some of the 805 million people suffering from hunger today. 

These people don’t often make the front page, yet hunger and malnutrition are the number one risk to health worldwide — greater than AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined.

This is a campaign from the World Food Programme, the world's largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide. In emergencies, they get food to where it is needed, saving the lives of victims of war, civil conflict and natural disasters. WFP is part of the United Nations system and is voluntarily funded. 

On average, WFP reaches more than 80 million people with food assistance in 75 countries each year. About 11,500 people work for the organisation, most of them in remote areas, serving the hungry.

Melodifestivalen 2015: Semi-final 1.

Yesterday I watched the first semi-final of “Melodifestivalen 2015”. I actually watched it on SVT Play some hours after it had aired so that's why this blog-post is published today and not yesterday. 
 
The hosts of “Melodifestivalen 2015” are last year's winner Sanna Nielsen and the comedian/host Robin Paulsson.

If you're following my blog you may remember that I wrote blog-posts about last year's “Melodifestivalen”. I don't know if any of you liked them but many people watches it after all so that's why I decided to do the same thing this year and it may become a tradition that I'll do every year. I might not watch every final when it airs LIVE but I'll definitely listen to every song and try to publish the blog-posts on the same evening after it have aired.
 
MY TOP 3 FAVORITES IN SEMI-FINAL 1 WERE:
1. Eric Saade - Sting.
2. Elize Ryd & Rickard Söderberg - One by One.
3.Behrang Miri feat. Victor Crone - Det Rår Vi Inte För (We Don't Control It).

Eric Saade was 1 of the 2 winners in Semi-final 1 so he will be competing in the Final.
Elize Ryd & Rickard Söderberg ended up on place 5/7 so they're gone from the competition.
Behrang Miri
& Victor Crone ended up on place 3/7 along with another contestant so they will get another chance in the Second chance round.

Semi-final 2 is on February 14. Semi-final 3 is on February 21. Semi-final 4 is on February 28. Second chance round is on March 7. And the Final is on March 14.

If you're not from Sweden, “Melodifestivalen” is the Swedish music competition that selects Sweden's entry for “Eurovision Song Contest” every year and the competition consists of four semi-finals, a second chance round and a final where the song that wins will be the entry for “Eurovision Song Contest”. There's a total of 28 songs that competes in “Melodifestivalen” every year, and there's 7 songs in each semi-final.

My new calendar: “Leva Livet 2015”.

THIS BLOG POST CONTAINS ADLINKS.
This week I got my new calendar “Leva Livet 2015” that I ordered from Bokus.
 
I thought of ordering this calendar in the end of last year, which I probably should have since January is already over now, but I didn't buy it since I thought that I already have a calendar so why should I have 2 calendars? But then in January I read about the calendar again in a blog-post by Spellmink and decided that I simply must buy it!

The calendar contains space for diary entries, inspiring texts, meditation, strengthening daily affirmations and developing exercises every week about the theme of the month, space for your intention for the week and the month, summary of good moments and challenges, beautiful pages to write your goals and dreams for 2015 and a annual chronicle.

The calendar's themes are: January - Fresh start, February - Trust, March - Self esteem, April - Self-confidence, May - Joy of living, June - Security and calm, July - Gratitude, August - Health, September - Relationships, October - Consideration, November - Success and December - Love.
 
I would say that this calendar is a mix between a calendar and a diary, so I think it's probably better than a normal calendar and I should have bought it in the end of last year but it's better late than never. I hope that the creator of this calendar will continue making them for every year because then I'll probably buy one every year and also keep it every year. I've always thrown away my normal spiral binder calendars when the calendar year is over because they have just been normal calendars, but since I think this calendar is like both a calendar and a diary, I'll save it together with my real diaries.
 
I've not written anything in my calendar yet but I've planned to do so today. I'm going to fill in January first since that month focused on your goals and dreams for 2015 so it's of course important to write down your thoughts and answers to the questions of that month and it also wouldn't make any sense to me to just skip a whole month even though it's already over. After that, I'm going to write down future appointments and plans that I know of right now and of course birthdays.
 
You can see a sample of how the calendar looks like inside here.

Alpaca “Welcome” Plush Toy.

This week I got my Alpaca plush toy!
 
I've been wanting to buy this alpaca ever since I first saw it on Ebay which probably was some year ago. I thought that I can place it somewhere where you can see it in the hallway of my future home and everytime I come home it will sit there to welcome me home. I think it's a cute idea anyway. And since the alpaca itself is in a nice light yellow color, it will hopefully look good and fit in with the rest of my home decor in my future home.
 
I obviously saw pictures of the alpaca on different Ebay listings before I bought it and I read that it would be 45 cm. I saw on pictures that it was quite big so I don't know why but I somehow expected it to be smaller. But hopefully I'll be able to find a good place for my alpaca to sit in my future home in the future. Right now it's sitting on our kitchen table to welcome me and my Mom but I suspect that she will tell me to put it somewhere else soon.
