2013: Hair and makeup looks

2013: Hair and makeup looks

 God I miss my long hair ! So many times have I gone from long hair to extremely short and then grown it back out. I love having long hair, but sometimes I get tired of the hassle and just chop it off. But then after, like, 6 months or so I miss the creative things you can do with long hair, so I let it grow back 🙂 Here are some of the looks I did during the end…

2013: New “battle station”

2013: New “battle station”

Before If you haven’t noticed yet, I’m a bit of a makeup addict. So at some point I was sick and tired of my old, tiny makeup “battle station” where things would tip over when I tried to reach for something in the back of the shelves (see the “before” picture). So the bf and I drove to Ikea and bought a shelf with a glass top, and some acrylic containers to make it easier to find and reach for…

2013 week 33: Last week of summer school :(

A frog from a Grimm fairy tale, in Marburg The last week of summer school is already here! Crazy. We were so busy the last week because we had to prepare a presentation about our country’s energy policies and strategies on top of classes and field trips. Luckily we had Monday off to catch up on sleep and do research for the presentation. We had to give the presentation on Thursday, but both Tuesday and Wednesday were filled with activities,…

2013 Week 32 Sunday: Football and cars

The Allianz Arena Last day of our field trip!  And its another beautiful day. This week had been so long, with almost every single waking moment occupied by activities, but now it’s almost time to get back to the “normal” rhythm of summer school. First stop of the day was the Allianz Arena, which is a huge football stadium north of Munich. We got a guided tour where we learned about the fire safety measures and the structures. After the…

  Beer stein deposit Saturday morning we got a tour guide around Munich where we saw a lot of the historic places. We also saw a Hofbräuhaus, which is a place where people goes to get some beer.

2013 Week 32 Friday: Bricks and food!

  Another day seeing a lot of stuff. We started at a brickyard that made hollowed out bricks with insulation in the gaps to improve the U-value of the finished wall as well as improve the acoustic traits of the wall. We got a tour around the factory where we saw the ovens and all the machines they used to make the bricks, we also got a demonstration of how the bricks were assembled and Molly even got to try…

2013 Week 32 Thursday: Ski-jump and hydropower

Mid-jump (totally looks like I instagrammed this photo, but it really is the original – crazyness) We started our day by checking out from our hotel in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. From there our bus headed for the local ski-jump stadium where people from all over the world can buy time for practicing their jumping.  Here is one of the places where the “january 1st” ski-jumping takes place (I believe it is 3 maybe 4 places they film from). It was amazing watching…

2013 week 32 Wednesday: Zugspitze – the highest mountain in Germany!

2013 week 32 Wednesday: Zugspitze – the highest mountain in Germany!

On our way up to the Alpspitze cable car Wednesday was a big mountain climbing day. We started our day with going to the local grocery store and buy some food for lunch, as our lunch stop would be at the top of a mountain so it would be quite expensive to buy food there. Most of us bought some krakers and stuff to eat – we also brought lots of water as we would be hicking in the heat…

2013 Week 32 Tuesday: Neuschwanstein Castle

A propella Tuesday was a busy day with lots of walking. We started by driving to the Zeppelin museum, where we learned a lot about how they are build, and some facts about the Hindenburg and why it went so wrong. There was a lot of old original items, both from the Hindenburg and other zeppelins, like a propella which was crazy big, but I guess it had to be big to drive an entire zeppelin. Our guide was a…

2013 week 32 Monday: Roadtrip!

Nuklear power plant on the way to Ravensburg Monday morning we started our week-long roadtrip to southern Germany. We had a rented bus for the entire week, so we had the same driver all week. The bus was a 50-persons bus, but we were only around 20 people, so we each got our own double seat. Our first stop was Ravensburg, where we got a guided tour around the Ravensburg art musuem, which is the very first zero energy museum…
