Phone Cases

This one below is obviously hand made. By the one and only artist: me. I love CyanogenMod and I work with horror and creepy stuff because my old soul loves that. 

The story behind this case is that it was originally this turquoise blue. Really pretty and the case itself is really high quality. It's by MOFI. Being the restless soul that I am I impulsively, without thinking, started adding these random colored diamonds that I had lying around. It was ridiculous. I even wanted to spell "poop" on it with the diamonds and even that I failed on. I don't know what happened. Probably a brain fart there. I glued everything with superglue and it looked horrible in my opinion. It was like a drunk monkey in a factory in China who assembled this piece together.

The day after I regretted it all and removed everything, leaving this harsh, ugly surface with glue still on (that I couldn't get rid of, it's superglue, duh) and some rip offs on the leather. I knew I'd ruin the case this way so what do I do? I draw. I drew my two favorite logos: OnePlus One and the CyanogenMod logos. At first I was gonna make these clean logos but as I started working on this piece I realized that the ink I used was smudging. A beautiful smudge and the rest is history. 

The blue color of the case is actually perfect because CyanogenMod's signature color is this blue.

Yesterday I met with a buddy which had these two original cases from the OnePlus store, so I got them.

Honestly, I have too much respect and care for my OnePlus that I don't dare to put a case like this clear one. Simply because it doesn't protect very well from drops and there's areas where it's not covered. However, it does a perfect job in getting as close to the "naked" phone as possible. You can really feel the thinness of the phone with this case.

I also got this black flip case which is really good. I really like the quality of this one and it fits perfectly on the phone (obviously because it's from the manufacturer). I really like this.


Besides all these cases, I have more.. I have about 5 right now and I've just bought more... I need therapy.

Abandoned place

I found this place and had my friend joining me. Finding the place was easy because I knew exactly where we were going. The area is divided into two big areas of copies of the same buildings all over the place. 

Getting into the first area was a bit of a hassle because we had to go through a tiny hole (turned out later that there was an easier entrance on the other side of the area). It was very exciting to enter the place. There was nothing creepy, I mean... Stockholm doesn't have a lot of creepy, abandoned buildings... 

In the second area we entered it was way easier to enter because a big hole was already cut out for us to enter. In there, we found some other strangers walking around in there. They even had a kid with them and they all looked decent so we didn't feel threatened in any way. Besides that they looked around, just like me and my friend did.





A couple of pics from Diana's birthday



We played games, ate, drank and had fun, afterwards we went to Kristall. Getting there was a pain because we all went to the bus to get into town but somehow one of these peep's friends had a van to drive us to the club so we all went back inside and waited. I had no concept of time so I don't know how long we waited and such but we got to the club in the end and I met "Peter" and his friend Erik after such a long time. Me and Peter hung out the whole night till they closed the club. I lost Diana so I was left with Erik and "Peter". We went to Donken in Sture where people were literally chaotic. There were no lines to the cashiers. Crazi monkies.

Shitz and giggulz

So I text with people a lot and sometimes I just get into the giggle mode and I write the weirdest things that cracks me up now that I look back at these. Here we go:


1. 
"Can I have a picture of you?"
*Sends Susan Boyle*
"Haha, cut it off!"
*Honey Boo Boo*
This one, above, was some random guy, I don't even remember who it was, a random number started texting me and this is how I replied. I am the purple bubble. He stopped replying after the Honey Boo picture.

2. 

"Haha ok. :) Are you free anytime this week? .... Why no reply?"
"I have diarrhea."

This guy randomly came up to me while I was in a hurry to the train to Diana's birthday party last week. It was in the middle of my rush and I was in the corridor between the subway and pendel and this guy randomly stopped my focus and started talking and complimenting me and wanted my number and take me out on a date. 

Honestly, I was very flattered by his move and words, that's why I gave him my number but I knew I'd not go out with him so the sadist that I am I wanted to do some fuckery with him by being as weird as I could... But still being slightly normal. 

3. 

-I'm in!
-That's so weird to me xD
-Haha do it! ... 
- .....put some flour and let everything ferment into a nice hat on you. Oh, I didn't even add the yeast, I'll add that now.

Sorry for the darkness. My phone had night screen mode on. This is my buddy "Murran". I don't remember what we were chatting about but I think I asked about his bald head and somehow I came up with this hat thingy. Basically I wanted to cook something on his head and so I decided to describe some bread like recipe.. So now he has a dough hat.


4. This last one was when I was riding from Diana's bd party last week and I was in the car and super drunk. We were communicating about when I was arriving and well... I don't even remember texting this until "Peter" (that's what we call him) showed me this later that night.


FYFAN SL, put a stick up your bum!

I need to go on a rant spree in this text.

I just feel like this new system of SL is so stupid. People pay too much for a monthly ticket, it's about 750 kr for that and they're going to raise it to close to 1000 kr, ca. 900 kr. A freaking paper of Gustav Vasa every month to get from point A to point B in Stockholm! What if your travel distance between your home and work is, let's say, two stations? I know people with that short distance, are they going to pay that money for that short travel time?? No wonder people "plankar"!

Where does the money go, huh? We pay so much already, we're actually one of the most expensive cities in the world when it comes to the cost of a freaking ticket! This stupid money probably goes to hire all these inspectors to walk around the city and inspect us all, the more money the more inspectors. Yeaaaah, yeah, I know, the money actually goes into maintaining the whole rail system, trains and other services, or that's what they tell us. Well, good for freaking you, if you could actually give us all good quality for the system and services that we payed for that'd be great!

I use the subway and I was stuck for fucking 20 mins at one station because of some stupid "train issue" further down the road. Effing 20 minutes! If I was going somewhere important I'd be fucked! I don't believe it was some train issue, I believe some bad ass "plankare" got beaten down by a security guard for "plankning" which he/she decided to fight against.

Bitch, fucking please. I guess I could pay the right price for my ticket IF I GOT THE FUCKING QUALITY FOR IT!!! I don't want any fucking 20 mins stops! I don't want to be stuck and wait every fucking year during the winter when SL makes the same fucking mistake every year and never learns how to deal with a little snow! You know the snow is coming, you've lived here for, oh I don't know (!) a long time enough to understand that snow WILL fall! The subway has existed for over 50 years, it's fucking time to use the money and invest in a system that works! How the hell does Japan make it work? Germany? Or any other country? Why not just get some inspiration from them instead of robbing our fucking money to hire inspectors to bust the asses off of people that don't live in Hammarby Sjöstad, Danderyd or Stureplan with tons of money to spit out 1000 kr every month to this shit. Oh, I'm sorry, they probably don't even use public transport, because they are rich enough to drive a fancy car they want to show off every meter. I don't know, even if you don't want to pay 900 but have to, you'll indirectly support the shit you don't want to support.

A whole Gustav Vasa piece of paper in order to get in to town... How ridiculous. And you don't even go there every day!

When I lived in Jkpg I payed 420 every month, 420! You know how much a "fritidskort" costs now? It's a new thing that came out recently. You can, with this card, roam around the city, and even further, 24/7 for 30 days. You know how much? 1.5.0. 150 fucking kr. Let that sink in.

Sure, they don't have trains IN the city, only buses, and there's not much to maintain, so I understand how it can be so cheap. But seriously, the time I've lived there I had minimal issues with them, even during the winter. I was spiteful when I got posts on Facebook of my friends having troubles with SL during the winter. "Thank God I'm not in that shit hole". Now I'm jelly of JLT.

OnePlus One - Phone Talk/Love

So I was able to sell my old baby, my XPERIA SP to a man that apparently was going to perform at IEGS! So that was nice, he was a nice person.. who also bought my phone + accessories for my full price.

Today was the first time in a long time that I felt okay, fairly "happy" with life. I mean, I got my phone sold, got some cash back, fixed some papers and tonight I'm meeting up with an old friend from afar. Oh, side note, during Sunday night (22/3) I went to see Chappie in the movies! With Die Antwoord and they're the only reason why I wanted to see that movie because I love Die Antwoord.

Lulz, the reason why I'm writing this is because I want to talk about my new phone, my OnePlus One (OPO). First of all, I am so glad I bought this "back up" case which I bought spontaneously when I realized I had to wait for too long for my screen protector and other cases to arrive. I'm very happy with this flip case even though I've always been against flip cases because they look so impractical, like you have to open a big, fat book in order to get to your phone. Blurgh, anyway, I still think a normal back case is better but I care too much for this phone that I can't afford a single scratch on it so I had to get a more protective case and that's how this flip case came into the picture. It's a blue/turquoise  MOFI case with a steel flip cover, it's really nice and I bought it in Sweden so it took one shipping day, it came so fast and yeah, I'm very satisfied.

On to the actual phone... I am in love. The size of the screen is 5.5 inches, so that plus all the other space makes it a pretty damn big phone. I've used it and I mean... It doesn't matter, you get used to the size but there are moments where you are very conscious of the size, like when I talk on it or putting it in my pocket. My hands are pretty small and my pockets are also small so it happens that I have to actually hold the phone like it's a bigger wallet, which is kind of annoying. But other than that I really like it.

It runs on CyanogenMod (at the moment ;)) and I love all this customization that you can fiddle around with. You can change almost everything to the way you want it. The CPU (processor) makes everything run so fast, I really noticed the speed whenever I wanna download/uninstall an app, everything is done within seconds. I'm on my OPO all the time!!! Not because I do anything special on it but because it's so freaking beautiful to look at. I have set my own wallpaper, icon and themes and it's just soooo beautiful.


So that's my home screen and as you can see by the bottom of the screen are these buttons. I have six, SIX different buttons and I customized them all by adding and rearranging them as I like it. The OPO also has "hard ware" buttons/keys off screen but they are limited to the standard "three" buttons (back, home, menu/whatever). 

Another thing I totally love with the software, Cyanogen, is the music. You can adjust whatever you like to hear, equalizer. I put more bass on the settings and my headphones just busted that bass into my ears I have my own nightclub right in my headphones. I'm listening to music through my OPO because of this. Otherwise I have iTunes on my computer and I listen through my PC but it sounds really flat. 

Another thing I really like with the OPO is the LED notification. It's basically just a blinking dot next to the front camera. Perfect location. I've had "the blinking dot" on my Xperia Neo but it was located on the side of the phone, after that my Xperia SP had this HUGE LED notification, its transparent bar. That phone would be perfect for whoever that sucks at responding quickly to messages since the whole freaking phone would blink. That's a bot too hardcore for me because I am a master at replying fairly quickly.... Because I'm glued to my phone. So going back to the simple dot LED Not. is pretty good for me. It doesn't scream in my face that someone contacted me but it also doesn't hide and let me miss stuff.

So yeah, I've had my phone for a few days now and I am generally very happy with it so far.
