As much as I don't like the winter, today was a really beautiful day. It snowed nonstop and it was the perfect kind of snow. Today I also saw a giant snow penis on my way home from work and later tonight I saw a big snow moomin I took some photos. Could have gotten some better ones but I was too lazy to walk further then a few steps outside

Stuff I've been listening to lately...

Not much new happening. Mostly same shit, different day but I am becoming more optimistic as the days are getting a little bit longer and brighter. Still living on junk food though It's still freezing out and I'm waiting anxiously for April. Can't wait for things to get more fun. I also want desperately more tattoos and a new hairstyle. I cut my own hair the other day but turns out I'm not very good at it! Haha! But nobody has noticed fortunately Need to go to a professional soon!

In other news I turn 25 next Friday!!! Oh my god! It's amazing how fast time goes by!
I also really want to try and get into playing in a band again. I really really miss it! Picked up my bass the other day and re-picked up some of my favorite bass songs Now I just need to get into it more often and see if I have time for a band or a small project. I always did dream of becoming a musician.

And last but not least!

Some things that have been on my mind lately...

It has been snow in Reykjavik constantly since November. I am getting pretty tired of it and my car is no good in the snow. I don't have any good shoes for this condition except one pair of some ugly old hiking shoes that are about two numbers too big for me. So after almost tripping many times in them I have stopped wearing them.
I got a little bit of money for christmas from my work and father in law so I went to the sales. But of course I ended up buying nicer looking shoees that I can't really wear in the snow either!
Hah! Go me!
I think I did some pretty good purchases at the January sales for the first time ever! I managed to buy me a pair of shoes, two jeans, a dress and 5 shirts.
I really needed some new stuff in my wardrobe
One thing that I realized is that I am always hesitant to buy warm clothes to wear during the winter even if it's either cold or chilly most of the year here. I guess it is because I dream of summer all year long.

In 2007 I became a little tired of being in college so I decided to take a break from school and just work for a year at the most. Now about 5 years later I have not gone back mostly because I don't know what I want to do or what I would be good at. I had gone back and forth between schools and studies because I got distracted, found out that it wasn't for me and just wasn't quite sure what I wanted.
It was also really hard to go back to school after having moved out from my parents and being used to be getting paid for a full time job for a few years.
But now finally I have signed up for school! In April I am going to evening school to learn to be a private trainer! It takes 3 months so it is going to be really fast and hard.
I must admit that I am not even sure if this is what I want to do but I feel that I need to study something to somehow get another job and new opportunities. I have been feeling kind of stuck for some time now and I am looking for a way out. That is why I thought this might be a good idea. If I won't like to be a private trainer at least it will help me when teaching my pole classes and when training for myself and maybe I'll be able to give some advice to them who want and need them. If I like it and I do good I might study this more. But I really am not sure! Any way it goes, I am really looking forward to starting school. I am really hopeful that this can get me out of my rut.
Stay in school kids!!!

My boyfriend took these for me before the new year because I needed some new pictures for an application



And now I must go and have something because I am hungry and I have the munchies and it's late!

And now you must watch this or you will die! I highly reccomend you put the subtitles on for this video!

Long time no blog, well except for the last frustrated one...

Merry christmas and a happy new year!

What has happened since last time I blogged...

The Christmas show! Me and another girl at the studio hosted a Pole showcase on the 18. of December. It was such a success! We spent a whole month planning and making our own and the students performances and training like crazy. We had burlesque performances, pole group and solo performances with students and instructors.
Most of the students were super nervous and hesitant to join the show but straight afterwards they got super excited and everyone wants to perform again.

The hostesses



Me and my super sweet students



And me... Bad dirty pictures! But that's all I got unfortunately.



My performance



I just trained for the first time since the show last night and oh boy my body is sore! I always had planned to go back to the studio and film my performance to get a better video and fix some minor things to perfect the routine but I got too busy recovering from training too hard before the show, then I had to do some christmas shopping and stuff like that, on Christmas I got sick and after Christmas I was still tired and frustrated from not being able to go back.

Christmas was alright. It was the first time I didn't spend it at my parents place. Instead I was with my boyfriend, his little brother and dad. I had a fever and a really bad headache and missed seeing my family later that night like I planned because I had to go and lie in bed and rest.
At least the desert was nice


Christmas was short, went back to my boring warehouse/lager job, boss was away and me and the guys were super lazy and I think we played probably way too many games of Battleship instead of actual work. But it was alright since it was really slow that week and we think we deserve to be a little lazy every once in a while

Captain out!

I am so excited about tomorrow. It's showtime! I have decided on my costume, picked a new song and I finally finished choreographing my routine today and I must say that I am pretty proud of it, especially considering how fast I made it
Can't wait for tomorrow to be over and be able to get some kind of rest since I have been training so hard for the last two weeks and teaching and planning and all that stuff Finally I will have a little time to finish the christmas shopping and be able to clean the apartment and perhaps some other pointless things
Yay!
Not much new.. I've been to 3 christmas buffets this month.


And I've been growing my hair out since my set was shot in August... can you tell? Surprisingly it's not even that noticeable in real life I can't wait to be all natural color again and not deal with roots and hair dye.


The real me!

Been taking lots of hot epsom salt foamy baths lately and I'm about to have one right now before trying to get some rest. Ahhh.......

It's that time of the year again. Sigh...... It's freezing out here, only about 5 hours of daylight each day, constant tiredness and I just want to lie in bed and go to sleep until spring comes. It's been snow all over the place and about -10c for the last two weeks. I don't remember it being so cold for so long before. Darkness and cold make me procrastinate everything I can for as long as I can! More sigh!

Brrrrrrr........

Of course there are a few things that I like about December....


I'm lazy so I buy the malt and appelsín already mixed together

But on the bright side me and a few other girls at the studio have been planning a Christmas pole show with our students which will be held next Sunday! Yay! I am pretty excited about the show. I am making a group routine with 6 of my students in level 3 and I will be performing a solo routine too. Have I told you that I LOVE performing? But of course I have been procrastinating choreographing the routine. And when I finally started making it last week I feel like I am only starting and making an intro when the song is half way through. And how am I going to fit everything I have left in it?! I am starting to think that I should choose a faster song so that I can dance faster and do more things. So typical me changing things last minute.
I'll see if I can make the song work tomorrow. I really hope so.

Went last night at midnight to try to make my routine but then I got a stomach ache and ended up taking some pictures while trying to wait it out.







Got myself some brand new red booty shorts.



Been trying to teach the kitten some pole dancing

~Inspiration of the day~

I've been meaning to blog for a long time but never get to it for some reason. I don't know if many of you here appreciate pole dancing as an art form but I know I do.
This is Marlo Fisken, one of my favorite pole dancers. I saw her first on youtube 2 years ago and she instantly became one of my favorites. Seeing her now and the transformation and how amazing she has become since then is unbelievable. It gives me hope that if I am dedicated enough and do things right I can become so much better. If only I can get my self out of my ruts and exhaustion that I have all the time.
I am just so inspired by this video I had to post it here. This is with out a doubt the most beautiful and breathtaking pole performance that I have ever seen. So strong, flexible and graceful. I get kind of emotional watching it.

My first blog as a proper Suicide Girl! Woohoo! Hmmm what to blog about......

I was on the front page on Thursday with my first set Icelandic Blue. Thanks to everyone who left me some love on it and helped me to become a suicidegirl!


The kitten is now 2 weeks old and has grown a lot and has become even cuter.

Too adorable!


In Iceland we don't celebrate Halloween and I think it sucks. We need more holidays and Halloween seems pretty cool. Luckily it is getting more and more popular here and there are some Halloween parties.

I was invited to a Halloween party for the first time last weekend and it was super fun.
I dressed up as a pirate kitty girl! Yarr!!!!




Want more photos?

Some pole stuff...

That's all for now!


I wish my car had a mustache....
