Hej Svenskt näringsliv!

Jag undrar vad ni/de på svenskt näringsliv tycker om litteraturvetenskap nu?

Nu när svensk litteratur lärs ut på riktigt ärofyllda universitet så kanske ni/de också börjar att förstå att humaniora inte är sämre än någon annan form av pluggande och kunskap.

Var ner på Webhallen (nyöppnad i Linköping) och hämtade lite Platstation 2 spel!

Sen fick jag en riktigt awesome påse också!

Har längtat som fan efter att få tag på Final Fantasy X. Den har typ varit slut nästan överallt förut, så nu är jag ganska nöjd. Hoppas att 2:an också lever upp till hur det ska vara.

Har XII sen tidigare, och om någon har de äldre spelen så är jag mycket intresserad av att köpa dem!

Det är inte varje dag man hittar köttyxor i rabatten!

1+1 = ..?

Recently I have been rather annoyed about... Well. Dieting.

It's so stupid.

Do you really think you will lose weight if you keep to a diet, that probably deprives you of vitamins and minerals  you need to have a functional body, and be able to actually burn off the fat you have on?

The only way, to be able to lose weight, is to work of more than you eat!

If you eat 1600 kcal, and you burn 1800 kcal a day, you will burn 200 kcal extra a day.

If doing the opposite (1800 in, 1600 out), the you will ADD 200 extra to your body a day.

It REALLY is that simple.

But it is important to remember that you actually need to exercise to get rid of the extra fat. By only dieting, you will not see any good result. One need to do some strength training to build muscles to be lean, and you need to do cardio to burn off fat.

I believe that people have different body types when it comes to make the food into energy. Me myself would never able to live on a LCHF-diet. I need carbs, and lots of them not to be in a bad mood, or feel sick, and I do feel drowsy and bad if I eat to much protein. This is because I am a slow oxidizer ("Slow oxidizers burn trough the nutrients of their food slowly and do not release the glucose from carbohydrates into the blood quickly enough, which means that they do not get converted into glucose, and energy production and availability are delayed." (Winning by losing; Jillian Michaels). Jillian means that excessive fat and protein intake slows down that even further, and I believe this. I am a bread junkie. I love pasta. I love fruits (except bananas and pears). And this is no "You can't eat this and that"-diet. This is more of a list of things one already knows:

Eat helathy food (no junk food, no fizzy drinks, no cakes and sweets etc etc.) but I know for my self I feel bad when eating to much proteins, and when I do, I feel full for hours, which is good, but instead, I don't have to eat, which is bad too!

I have some trouble with the food she says, as it is rather american, and I just don't like it, but it's still easy to buy low fat milk, low fat cheese and so on, and make it more Swedish.

LCHF, GL... Well.. It might work... For a while... Of course, thinking of GL is a good thing to do, as you choose to avoid sweets, sugar and fast carbs, but it is never ever good to take away anything completley!

You need carbs, proteins and fat to be able to have a body that is functioning!

I recommend to read Jillians book. She does not use diets, not quick fixes, and she is more down to earth with dieting than all those Hollywood trainers seem to be. ( I would also want to read Paul McKenna's I can make you thin, but that is a bit, over the top, using some sort of self hypnosis...)

But there are some rules to follow.

Eat every 4th hour: This will work if you stop eating when you're full!

Never eat so much as you feel stuffed or something. A comfortable feeling full is what to aim for. 

This will make sure you're hungry every 4th hour, so you can eat when hungry!

If you follow Jillians rules you might not be able to eat exactly what you want, but think of this:

Junk-food and sweets and processed food makes you ugly. It gives you spots, cellulite, bad skin as you look older... Do you want to look old, with spots and cellulite?

If one want to lose weight one need to do life long changes, and those are not big. If one wants to eat pizza and burgers, you can do it at home. It is easy, cheap and healthy to do at home!

The most important thing still is to keep enough calories so that you're body is still functioning. This means between 1600-2200 for a female, depending on things like work, exercise and calories you burn on a daily basis! 

If you burn about 7000 kcal extra, you will lose about 1 kg of fat from from your body (this is calculated without thinking of you adding any extra muscle mass to your body, which burns extra calories).

With simple math, if you eat so that you're on 0 (for example 1800 in, 1800 out), and you exercise 3 times a week, burning 300 kcal each time = 900. 

You do the math!

Shopping

Tog en tur ner till stan för att se om de shortsen jag ville ha fanns på rea. Men inte.

Kikade lite på Gina Tricot också, och jag såg en hel del där som var riktigt snyggt faktiskt!

Istället blev det lite annat smått och gott inhandlat!

Först var vi inne på Game Stop. Vilket var dumt. Kom ut med 3 st datorspel (och någon dag ska jag in och köpa ett playstation 2 spel!)

Sen smet vi in en sväng på Stadium, där jag skulle se om de shortsen jag är jättesugen på var på rea, men tyvärr inte. Men jag hittade ett par andra jeans-shorts (som jag är emot att köpa egentligen för att de är så sjukt dyra, och jag har ju precis börjat få på mig ett par gamla som varit för små förut...)

Sen började det spöregna, så vi smet in på Bokia för att se om det fanns några pennor där som man kunde rita på tyg med. Och det fanns det!

Jätteglad blev jag! Nu kan jag rita på de tröjor som jag köpte på Stadium i våras!

Eftersom att jag inte ätit något idag så ville jag ha sushi!

Sen var vi så awesome så att vi fick klubbor inne på sushi restaurangen!

One more concert to the list

Yesterday, we went to Gröna Lund (one of two big amusement parks in Sweden), and in the evening we were rocking on to the old man Alice Cooper!

I have not been to that many concerts, but I liked this one (as I have never seen Alice Cooper before) but I heard that, if you have seen him before, it looks the same...

The last concert I was to was Green Day in 2009. That was nice, I really like Green Day, but Alice scene show was a bit more spectacular than theirs.

But I see it real funny that, what ever was controversial when Alice started his career, is like... "Meeeh" now. But it was still wicked cool!

(My first thought was: Oh. My. GOD! Is he going to wear the spider-outfit the whole show?!?!)

I still have a few artists I would like to see before I die (or in some cases... Before they die!)

Among them is:

Mötley Crue

Volbeat

Green Day (again!)

Danko Jones

Billy Idol

Thåström

Ozzy Osbourne

And I guess the list will become even bigger soon!

One new song!
(Well, kind of new anyway, but it was not in his 80's repertoire!)
One fun thing was: he added parts of Pink Floyd's legendary Another Brick In The Wall in his School's Out!

I'm actually a bit amazed he is 63 years old, and still active.

 

Gröna Lund igår

 Igår åkte vi till Stockholm för att gå på Gröna Lund, och när vi följde Jonatans GPS, så hamnade vi lite fel, men en tur förbi slottet är väll okay.

Jonatan ser lite skeptisk ut. Vi har precis åkt Twister tror jag och hade stått i monsterkö!

Hittade lite lustiga cirkusmänniskor också. Men jag fick inget kort på den söta en-hjuls cyklisten!

Mat på plats. Med tex mex veg färs (ni vet, den torra som man blandar med tomater och vatten?) och sega nachochips så var man redo att åka wn massa karuseller igen!

Väntar på att få åka karusell. Det var ganska mycket folk, så det blev en hel del väntan. Men vi åkte Kvasten och Jetline ett par gånger. Den vilda Musen, Extreme, en svinggunga (som gjorde jätteont i ryggen), Lustiga huset, RockJet, Pop-expressen... Sen vet jag inte om vi åkte något mer..

Men det var juy lite den här orsaken som gjorde att jag ville dit just igår!

Alice, Alice, Alice, Alice!

Big disappointment

A few weeks ago, I bought the first eight books of the Sookie Stackhouse novels. 

After a while, I finally decided, it is time to go onto reading the fourth books.

Recently there have been a lot of vampire reading, but right now, I feel like this is what I want to read...

And the rest of the books I have borrowed, will go back to the library... Unfortunately, because I would like to read them...

I have heard that the fourth book are supposed to bring up Eric Northman a lot more than in recent books. In my world, Eric Northman does not look exactly like Alexander Skarsgård, but close enough.

So when I read on the back of the book:

Maybe that's why, when she comes across a naked vampire on the way home from work, she doesn't just drive by. [...] Eric looks just as scary and sexy (...) as the day she met him."

My thought was: Yeah man! I'm going to read about a naked Eric Northman! Om nom nom!

When I came to that specific part in the book it read:

I had a moment to notice that the man was tall, blonde, and clad only in blue jeans (...)

Hey! Wait a minute! That is not right. Wearing jeans is not being naked!

This is being naked:

Okay, he is not completely naked... But more naked than running around in jeans!

And yeah, for those who haven't already noticed... I'm sickly obsessed by vampires!
