RANDOM BLONDE LAW STUDENT

This blog has been a lot about everything, but never (except when I was on my Erasmus exchange) had any special focus. I have always hated that, but to tell you the truth, I always tried to focus on something, but nothing ever stuck.

I have always been passionate about food, cooking, baking, recipes and MUSIC. While posting recipes is fun and quite easy, writing anything about music scared the shit out of me. How would I know anything about music or bands or whatever. I'm just a regular girl that likes a certain type of music. Why would anyone listen to things I have to say about music.

And then I met THE BOY and he is all about music. Plays in a band, loves going to good concerts, knows tons of bands. And after some debating (and convincing), we decided to give blogging a try. As a couple. Writing about music, bands (mostly interviews) and also, about vegan food, since we both became vegan sometime in spring.

And the blog has been a success. Well, to me it has been. Especially because of the gratefulness and kindness we got from the bands we interviewed so far.

It's still hard to stick to writing, especially when there are so many other things in life trying to mess with our time, but we are not going to give up. He is my motivator and I am his. And I'm really happy that I found my focus, my blogging niche.

I can't say that I'm officially "killing" this blog, BUT, at least in the near future, there is not going to be anything new posted here. I moved my ass to SAWDUST & BEER, and if you would still like to read the stuff I write and post, follow me there. As it is appropriate, we have a lot of social channels, so you can follow us on:

Hopefully, see you there, my friends.

Love, Kaja. ♥

I guess it's time for this. Time to say something about the whole Erasmus experience and to say thanks to all everybody that contributed to the experience. Honestly, doing an Erasmus exchange was the best decision I have made so far. These last 6 months have been amazing. So many new places, new experience, new people. People that I will hopefully see again soon and who will stay in my heart forever. I am going to try to say thanks to all of you and I deeply apologize in advance in case I forget somebody.

Thank you (the order is random)

And the BIGGEST thank you to

I think this is it. It was awesome. Thank you all.

Love, Kaja. ♥

New year, new resolutions. I know many people (my boyfriend included) think new year's resolutions are stupid, because you never stick to them or you make a resolution that is too easy and you already know you're going to do it. But I still think they are great, because we all need something that drives us, motivates us so we can achieve even more. So here are my resolutions for 2014:

I am already working on some of them and hoping I will start realizing the rest of them as soon as possible. Fingers crossed.

What are your resolution for 2014?


Novo leto, nove zaobljube. Vem da vas veliko (vključno z mojim fantom) misli, da so novoletne zaobljube neumne, ker jih nikoli ne uresničimo ali pa si postavimo prelahke za katere vemo, da jih bomo absolutno uresničili. Sama se s tem ne strinjam in mislim, da vsi potrebujemo nekaj, da nas motivira, goni, da dosežemo še več kot bi drugače. Tukaj so moje zaobljube za leto 2014:

• Piši več (na novem še lepšem blogu).
• Objavi vsaj en recept na mesec.
• Beri več (knjige, in to ne za faks).
• Pij več čaja (čisto malo sem obsedena s čaji in rada bi nadaljevala to obsesijo, kot lahko vidite po fotografiji).
• Diplomiraj (napisati moram samo eno seminarsko in diplomo in če bo šlo po načrtih, pred junijem).
• Pojdi na vsaj eno potovanje (razmišljam o Nizozemski spomladi ali v začetku poletja).
• Pojdi na vse zanimive koncerte v bližini.
• Fotografiraj s Canon fotoaparatom.
• Začni živeti bolj zdravo (kar pomeni malo več gibanja, ker prehranjevanje sem vsaj nekoliko popravila že lansko leto, če seveda ne štejemo praznikov).
• Najdi eno novo stvar za delat, ki te bo veselila.
• Na koncu leta preveri, ali si se držala zaobljub.

Love, Kaja. ♥

Danes sem sprejela dve odločitvi. Prva je ta, da bom blog originalno pisala v slovenščini, saj bom tako lažje in hitreje opisala vse kar se mi bo dogajalo na Švedskem od sobote dalje. Se pa bom potrudila in tekst vsakič vsaj poskusila v celoti prevesti v angleščino. Mogoče celo švedščino? ;)

Druga odločitev pa je ta, da (skoraj sigurno) zadnjo kavico v Mangotu izkoristim za kratko objavo, uvod v izmenjavo na Švedskem, za katero upam da mi bo dala veliko materiala o katerem bom lahko tukaj pisala.

Ko pomislim na to, da moram jutri počasi začeti s pakiranjem in pripravami na poslovilni žur, me kar zmrazi. Pa ne zato ker je v Malmotu par stopinj hladneje kot tukaj, ampak zato, ker je teden odhoda enostavno prehitro prišel. Če bo šlo vse po planih bom v soboto ob 7.00 zjutraj že sedela na letalu namenjenem v Copenhagen. Joj, sobotno kosilo bo že na Švedskem. Jupi ali ojoj? Ahh who am I kidding: jeeeeeeej! Končno se mi bo uresničilo nekaj kar si želim že odkar sem začela razmišljati o študiju oziroma najbrž še prej. Končno bom "sama" spoznavala tujino, nove stvari, nove ljudi, nov jezik, nove običaje, novo znanje ... 

Zakaj je sama v narekovajih? Ker bom stanovanje delila z mojim predragim bratom Mihom, ki v Malmotu živi že skoraj dve leti in je tako dober, da ga je pripravljen deliti z mano, saj nisem dobila sobe v študentskem domu. Zdi se mi, da je Miha dejansko vedno bolj in bolj navdušen nad tem, da mu bo mlajša sestrica 5 mesecev  delala družbo pri jutranjem poslušanju indie punk rock glasbe na internetnem radiu SomaFM. In tudi jaz že komaj čakam vsega "švedskega".

Kaj pa strahovi? Dejansko se ne bojim veliko stvari. Mogoče jezika, švedščine, ki ni čisto nič podobna kateremukoli od jezikov, ki sem se jih učila do sedaj. Vendar bom hodila na intenziven tečaj in se spopadla s tem problemom. Drugi strah pa je, da bom preveč pogrešala nekoga, ki ga na žalost ne morem vzeti s sabo. Ampak, saj je samo 5 mesecev in glede na to, kako hitro je minilo to (šolsko) leto, ni dvoma, da bo tudi 5 mesecev izmenjave (najbrž še pre-) hitro minilo.

Mislim, da je to kar dober uvod v (upam da redna in zanimiva) pripovedovanja o mojem "potepanju" na severu. Upam, da jih bo vsaj kdo bral in se veselil z mano ob vseh mogočih dogodivščinah ter da bom mogoče koga navdušila, da se bo odpravil na podobno potepanje, kot so mene navdušili nekateri drugi blogi (Polona, hvala ti).

This is it. Kavico sem spila. Mislim, da je čas, da se odpravim proti domu in preživim še nekaj časa z mojimi.

Love, Kaja. ♥

As you might have guessed I'm a blonde law student. Ha, nice one. At the moment I'm 22 and I tried blogging many times about different things, but I never sticked to it, probably because there are just too many things that are interesting and I guess sticking to one topic is just not my thing. I'm a true Gemini. So I thought to myself, Kaja, why don't you just make a random blog and post about all the things that interest you and are popular in your life at the moment. So, this is it. My random life is getting public.

I'm in my fourth year of law school and in March I'm going to NYC and Washington for 2 weeks. This was probably the reason why I decided to make this blog. I had to make one for the "excursion group" (or whatever you can call it) and I guess it inspired me. We need a blog, so everyone can see/read what we are doing there and be jealous. Heh, just kidding (not really). But I actually don't know if I'm the one who will be posting on the blog, or the "prize" will go to someone else. But anyway, here is the Two Weeks in the USA blog: http://twoweeksintheusa.blogspot.com/ (it's in Slovene!). AND, if I'm not the main blogger on that blog, or even so, I just need a blog, so I post about things that I will be doing in the US, cause I think I have different plans like the others (not so much shopping).

I'm also planing to go on a half-year Erasmus exchange next year, so this is another reason for having a blog. I don't know where I'm going, cause I have to apply this week, but my first wish is Lund, Sweden. Second option is Aalborg, Denmark. We will see ...

Enough for the first post on this brand new blog, cause I'm really tired. It's Mardi Gras (or pust in Slovene) and we were walking all day around the town, and it was cold and now I just want to go to bed. Oh yes, I almost forgot. I was a hobbit, my friend was the Witch King and her sister was Sauron (all from Lord of the Rings if you don't know). I think we looked amazing.

So this is it. First post on my new blog. Kaja is out.
