I love this. I like that it´s all about that you have to work hard & sometimes think out of the box to get what you want in your life. I didn´t get my masters degree by thinking that I could do it if I wanted to. I went out & did the hard work. It´s so easy to sit back & say that you could do this & that- cause it only counts if you go out & do it. It´s not all about skills & brains. It´s also very much about willpower, energy & hard hard work.
Inspired by the blog: “Self Professed Product Obsessed” I will tell you 33 things you probably didnt know about me
1 I don´t mind getting older-Oprah promised life is only better as you get older.
2 I really like Oprah.
3 I think everybody should visit Iceland-it is so special.
4 I plan to learn to speak a lot of languages now that I finished my masters degree.
5 I am actually a black belt in taekwondo. I earned my black belt when I was 14 & at the same time I landed a spot on the danish national team. Now I coach children-including my oldest child. It´s so much fun. I get to be really tough & make them to a lot of push-ups & I get so much love from them.
6 I drink a lot of tea. It´s a cultural thing. In Afghanistan & Pakistan ( dad was born i Afghanistan & mom in Pakistan ) there is a lot of tea-drinking going on…especially chai: boiled milk, black tea & cardamom-yum…
7 My favorite book is “Jønke-mit liv”….no just kidding it´s “Jønke-mit liv part two”….bad joke he is the most famous criminal from the bikersquad Hell´s Angels, Copenhagen. I don´t have a favorite book- I have tons of favorite books.
8 I didn´t enjoy being pregnant. I was so sick all the time & everything smelled more than usual. I suddenly didn´t enjoy my tea anymore, I couldn´t stand warm showers, I couldn´t drink tapwater. It was just weird & uncomfortable.
9 I bought my first Gucci bag when I was 18. I had been in the store window for a while & when it was put on sale I was lucky to have the amount it cost. I still have it.
10 Humour is an important part of my life. Fx my husbands sense of humour made me fall for him very quickly. We laugh a lot at our house…
11 My favorite european capital besides Copenhagen is Paris.
12 Favorite country to visit is the US.
13 My very first concert was a Janet Jackson concert. I still love her Rhythm Nation ( love the outfit she wore in the Rhythm Nation video) & Janet album ( I used to wear my jeans like her-you know the button part was inside out).
14 I love my bike. A good bike is essential here in Copenhagen.
15 Because I have daughters I feel it´s ok to buy quality stuff like Burberry coats & Prada shoes, cause I will pass the good style & items on to them. It´s an investment-right?!!!
17 My favorite comedy show when I was a kid was:” Fresh Prince of Bel Air.” I thought Will Smith was the coolest & best dressed guy alive.
18 I love watching Gossip Girl, because of their outfits.
19 I enjoy watching the cartoon Cow & Chicken, but I really don´t think it´s for kids ( It´s on Cartoon Network)
20 My favorite everyday shoe is All Stars-they are so comfy & looks great when they are beat up.
21 I like playing tennis & volleyball, but I am not very good at it.
22 I once found a pigeon on my attic. It had eggs & everything up there-eeew.
23 In highschool our class went to Poland. When I went to see the concentration camp in Auschwitch I cried hard for an hour afterwards. It was just too much. We saw the gas chambers, the prisoners clothes ( fx little babyshoes), hair, stuff made out of human skin, their suitcases and so on. Horrible.
24 Being a student at the university really opened my mind. It made my world a lot bigger, a lot more tolerant & openminded.
25 I like carrots & strawberries- a lot.
26 I love sleeping when it´s sunny outside. Lying in the sun in my own bed is awesome.
27 Actually I can sleep anywhere. At the university I used to sleep with my head on the desk. Once I didn´t notice that class started again so I woke up in the middle of class.
28 Another time I fell asleep in the library & accidentally swept my stuff on the floor. I woke up because of the noise. It was quite embarrassing.
29 My favorite icecream is Icelandic from a small shop in the western part of Reykjavik-it is soooo good!
30 My favorite Disney movie is Mulan. It´s is too funny & she is a strong girl-I like fighters.
31 I like doing puzzles-I find it meditative
32 I think a lot of Danish designers are really great.
33 I have moments everyday where I feel grateful & genuinely happy.
Have a great day everybody!
I will sit back & let my sweet family spoil me : )
