The real 2 do list!

It's been some busy days, that turned into busy weeks and became a crazy busy month.
The main things that's been occupying my time could easily be boiled down into 2 words:
Accounting
Video editing
For the first word on the list the action has been mostly inside my head, planning to get to it. So now I'm really, really late and my auditor really, really busy.
The second word on the list is actually two words and totally new to be appering on my 2 do lists. When I need a promo or anything like that I leave it to professionals. Same thing as I do (in my imagination) with my financials.
But this time I decided to do it by on my own.
Luckily for me the videos I needed is for an acroyoga teacher training so I had to practice a lot to get all the videoclips I need!
Now it's done. I'm happy with the results and I learned a lot along the way.
Receipts and invoices safe and sound at my auditor. Videos and application in the mail, smothly sailing (or flying) to Montreal. New to 2 list set and ready to attend.


Want to take a look on my practice videos and editing skills? Please do =)

Peace and love!

Some ideas

But sometimes you just want to try them out anyway.

Almost There vs The Real Thing

Telling the truth about what you want.
Pointing it out.
Saying "I want this".
Beeing truthful to yourself.
Good things right?
But I just found out that it also means turning your back to something.
Turning to something is automaticly turning away from something else.
Pointing out what you want is also telling the truth about what you don't want.
It's like standing in a candyshop. If you know exactly what you want, none of the other candy matter to you except the the piece (or pieces) that you are going to bring home and eat!
In my case the thing that I want vs what I leave behind is kind of tricky...
What I turn my back to is damn close to what I really want, but not quite there.
(It's like dark chocolat with seasalt but a different brand than the favorite.)
Why settle for the subsitute? I say; Never settle!
I say that but what I feel and what I want to scream out is not always the same as what I know is the right thing to do.
I know that I could never settle for the "almost there", "almost it" even if I can fool myself to do it for some time. But sooner or later the urge for "the real thing" takes over. And it's my belief that if I'm fully stuffed with "almost" the real thing have no place to fit in to.
It would be like eating two bars of chocolate. The first one might not be what you longed for. But if you eat it, and then eat the one you was really urging for... you will get way to full. And the second one will probably not taste as good as if you hadn't ate the first one?
In the middle of turning my back to Almost and waiting for The Real I feel restless.
Maybe I could hang out in almost-land for just a little bit longer before I start the journey to the real?
Or could I?
Or could Almost be Real?

Crazy weekend and Mars Migration Madness

Friday 30 mars I got up in the middle of the night - or really, really early. Shaved my legs with an old razorblade (if you ever done that, you know what I'm talking about - and if you havent, don't) and took a cab ride down to Gothenburg centalstation.
On the train I met my girrrls and off we went to Copenhagen.
Arriving at the Yogi Nomads Mars Migration Madness we started off with a sequencing workshop; theme: Plan a class like you plan to serve a delicous meal. Brilliant!
After that I went back to Sweden and Malmö for a golden night at Casino Cosmopol. Literally golden, because I was performing as a goldstatue.
The day (read night) ended with an hour in the shower trying to shampoo the gold make-up out from my hair.
Saturday morning I took the train back to Copenhagen and Axelborg for rigging my aerial net so that it was ready for that nights performance!
Rigging went smooth, it's so nice to work with professionals, so did the checking in at the hotel. Left my bags and went back to the Yogi Nomads for a 3,5h Mars Migration Madness yoga-session. Awesome!
For the first time ever I did the exorcist walk. You know - walking in Urdhva D =). Thank you Yoga Paws for making me such a mobil yogini!!
A huge dinner, some rest and then it was time for Pure Noir. The nightclub at Axelborg where I was performing aerial net. Dresscode for the guests that evening was black from head to toe... I was dressed in white and had a uv-spot. Think anyone noticed me?
At 4 am I fell asleep. 6 hours later I woke up at the exact same spot, in the exact same position as I fell asleep in... Breakfast, back to Axelborg to get my net and then starting the train ride back to Gothenburg.
Back in my hometown it was time for Balanced and Hip! My armbalance and hipopener workshop. 10 advanced students kept me awaked and happy despite a blasting headache. I'm so thankful to my teachers that have equipped me with such wonderful tools to share my knowledge with truely intrested people!

Ended the total crazyness this weekend had brought on me, or I brought on myself, with pizza and candy. Because I'm worth it!!
