What if all my tiny revolutions don’t have solutions What if they’re just cascades of charades hoping to pull down the facadesBut never succeed because what I can’t see is I will play the part until something do us part- J

The Journey of an Inkling
Stemming from intuition, a notion From the unwanted notion, an angst In the whirlwind of angst, a force It is clarity. With a winking eye, a smirk It beckons you, surrender The notion may be true, if so The grief is solely temporary Wheras you, stand solid forever
Windows in the clouds
Beneath the heavy cloud blanket are people with gloomy faces. Some attempt to smile, but most succumb to the pressing darkness. In the news, scientists report that we’re more prone to becoming depressed, that the lack of light disrupts our sleeping patterns and that we’re more drawn to sugar because of it. We haven’t seenContinue reading “Windows in the clouds”
Our Wonky Digital Consciousness
We’re experiencing from screens; human, animal, machine. I feel like I’ve been to the US, Africa and Asia, I sure make references as if I would’ve. I pluck a vague memory from a series made in anywhere, which faulty leads me to believe, this, what I see, is how it must be there. I feelContinue reading “Our Wonky Digital Consciousness”

Trembling stars
I see a trembling star, I ask her, “Why do you tremble?” “I am afraid of the dark.” “You? You who are made of light!” “The light you see is who I used to be. Now I’m naught but a rock.” I put my hand on her cold, rugged body, in an attempt to calmContinue reading “Trembling stars”
Perception Misconception
Distinguishing who I am without you Extinguishing who you say I am, before you I am nothing without your gaze Although, I may be shrewed in it too I take a pick of what you say I am, make a mental note, the rest I denote Because at times I concur to your perception YouContinue reading “Perception Misconception”
Blushing Storm
Fearless in my own skin, I struck I swept in, caught you off-guard My sounds showered your mind, sent shivers through your spine We rumbled together that night drenched in the moment absorbed by each other I was a lot for you, covering the sky with my presence you encouraged it We calmed down theContinue reading “Blushing Storm”
See and make seen
I didn’t know you for long. A day after your death I backtracked how long we actually had known each other for. I counted two months, an insight which lead to instant disappointment because in this world we put the length of any relationship on a piedestal. I pushed that annoying inkling of disappointment awayContinue reading “See and make seen”

Learning how to be content
I pull my hair in what’s a combination of stress and frenzy. It’s dry and frazzled. I’ve been expecting it to fall off this winter. A winter that has been too long and cold. I’ve also been expecting myself to run away several times but I never have. Instead I’ve tucked the notion of otherContinue reading “Learning how to be content”
Insights with great impact, drawn from tiny moments
The four of us sat in an Airbnb bed, freshly arrived into an Amsterdam in February shroud, sipping Cava and red wine. A constellation of friends that has not been obvious but rather worked on. Connected through our eagerness to connect, out of curiosity for one another. Sharing memories of current and former boyfriends throughContinue reading “Insights with great impact, drawn from tiny moments”
Intelligent scum
What if people a hundred years from now will look back at us in the” rich” world and ask: Why didn’t you stop this from happening? There are no flowers any longer We have no trees The bees no longer buzz around our elbows and knees The sun is scorching our skin water tastes likeContinue reading “Intelligent scum”

Gorillaz, The National and Ella Blondes
I’m still in bed, 2pm on a Saturday. I’m scavenging the Internet for interesting articles, new tech, business-tips and psychology-papers. Nah, not quite. I’m scanning the web for clothes and blogs 😉 Look at this beauty. This tree made me incredibly happy and it lives right by us! What a perk. I’m in shut-up quarantineContinue reading “Gorillaz, The National and Ella Blondes”
Five Months of summer
I will grow but I will never grow up
Stockings too thin
Shoulders up by my ears Freezing wind, forcing tears A jacket too cold Stockings too thin Autumn begging to begin Kisses from him Comforts me in the whirlwind of endings; beginnings losses; winnings Every winter I flee to a land with endless green leaves Yet I remain for here are my kin keeping me warmContinue reading “Stockings too thin”
The elusive concept of being one’s own boss
Suddenly the limbo-state in which I’ve found myself to be in for a while, cleared up and showed me what it was actually about. I’ve felt torn between running my own business and waiting for someone else to command me to do something. I’ve wanted to start my own company since I was 16 (I’mContinue reading “The elusive concept of being one’s own boss”
Party in the Park
Nils and I traveled home from Skåne to attend Ash’s and Veronica’s massive messer. We were so hyped that we even ditched our parents meeting each other for the first time… Not good, but it was for a good cause 😉 The party started during the day and continued till’ late. Nima was well-dressed perContinue reading “Party in the Park”
Involuntary Models
These kindred spirits have been my models since I bought my first DSLR as a 14 year old. Hence, throughout the years, I’ve collected numerous of moments, starring them as the main characters. Thank you mamma, pappa, Jessica & Jacob (a tad reluctant at first, but he loosened up) for letting me shove lenses extremelyContinue reading “Involuntary Models”
As of this moment
Staring out on the humble rain watching summer disintegrate Leaves are shapeshifting eavesdropping to the marching band of autumn appearing in the distance humans, animals and plants alike prepare to cocoon for a winter’s fortnight
Shenanigan’s in the South of Sweden
Where white beaches live and tiny beach-cottages are situated, I feel at home. My family and I travel to Falsterbo/Skanör in Skåne every year and for the two past years Magnus, my sister’s boyfriend, and Nils have joined too, which adds to it even more. Nils and I have been a couple for more thanContinue reading “Shenanigan’s in the South of Sweden”
Our Hyper Island Graduation
Between the 14th to 16th of June we had our graduation. It started off on Wednesday with a reunion-breakfast. It was nuts seeing everyone again after 7 months apart. I was nervous, completely overly excited and of course, very happy. We did our internship-presentations and Chris’s and mine made people laugh a lot = success!Continue reading “Our Hyper Island Graduation”
“His and Hers” The Backpack Version
Nils and I are backpack-people but backpacks tend to take up a lot of space when they’re just lying around somewhere, especially when you live on 36sqm. That’s why we came up with the REVOLUTIONARY idea to hang them on the wall – which became really cute. Many of my friends have said “AW THAT’SContinue reading ““His and Hers” The Backpack Version”
First day of school…again
Nervous excitement. Today is the beginning of Graduation Week at Hyper Island. We have not seen each other for 7 months and I am beyond stoked to meet everyone. It’s the end of the beginning! The beginning of a life outside of school. Who knows, maybe I’ll start studying something again or just take coursesContinue reading “First day of school…again”
Peeling layers of thought
I’ve been writing all day. I went to Haymarket, looked around in the beautiful milieu and had a coffee, or two actually, very important. The act of going to a place to write, is special. You designate time to write. I don’t do that very often, but when I do, I cherish every second. IContinue reading “Peeling layers of thought”
Freedom on a bike
I’ve been to Italy, in Padergnone. I biked there. Surrounded by mountains, fluffy trees sprinkled in green, lakes of emerald green, we flew forward. At least it felt like it. A sensation of freedom, one that got me all happy-tears-eyed. I looked at my father and brother biking before me and I, as I oftenContinue reading “Freedom on a bike”
