Happy birthday dear blog, happy birthday dear blog.. happy b-day dear bloooooog, happy bday.. blabla :P

The blog is “1 year” today :) The reason for the ” ” is that my blog actually is a lot older than that. I have had this URL since November 2005 with a blog on it and before that I had kolastram.dk which I got in 2003 and used it more like a homepage with all kinds of weird stuff on it :P Click on pictures for a closer view ;)

This design I had for a good while on my old blog :) Still think this was a great header :D

And then my blog was hacked, well I dont think it was my blog in particular that had done anything but more like a security breach in wordpress that was used. And then it all of the sudden looked like this on the frontpage and then I actually stopped blogging for a good while.

It wasn’t until last year I figured out I had a hobby that I could actually blog about :P So on March 7th I put up my first post. And that wasn’t nail related at all, that was a picture of a queue thingy at a pharmacy which made a heart with < and 3 :D That’s how geeky I am :P

Since the first post I have had a big increase in the visitors count because of the wonderful and kind network that there is between bloggers :) and especially to mention the nail bloggers :) I owe everyone that link to me huge hug <3

Some random stats:

More than 500 posts

33.000 unique visitors the last year

Over 1500 comments

Most used keyword search was for “Chanel 505″

106 countries has visited the site, 42%  was from Denmark, 24% from USA and rest is spread out over the world :)

The busiest day so far has been with 520 hits

So enough with the facts.. be sure to check back later today for the post on my birthday giveaway :D And thanks again all for reading. Biiiig hug and lots of <3 to you ;)

Im at work, working…

And I am not talking about any polishes here :P But one of my favorite shows ever has to be The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and one of my new favorites actors has to be Robert Pattinson, so the two of them together cant be other than great ;)

Robert Pattinson Interview (March 2)

the blog’s 1st anniversary is coming up, so why wait with a giveaway until I reach 200 followers when I can celebrate this instead? :D So I have a few weeks to think about some giveaway/contest rules :)

And on another note I am sorry for my silence this week, I have been sick and actually still am, but at least I am at work today, so I hope I will be feeling fine before tomorrow where I have a lot more to do here :s Oh and I am sorry about not responding that much to comments and mails, I will catch up during the week :)

Think this might be a very accurate picture of how I feel at the moment :P Thanks for reading and have a nice sunday :D

I’m sick so in random boredomness I fell over this site. It’s called Mate a movie and the concept is mate two or more movies, combined to make one much funnier movie. Think there are some great entries :D Maybe a bit overload on the Avatar side :P I still plan to do some polish stuff this week just waiting to feel a bit better and hoping to get some sun also.. This winter is beginning to be very annoying, slse I will have to get some old pictures out :(

Even though I was going to work this night and slept all day, this was waiting for me when I woke up :D

This is weird.. a spelling error… hmm…
When I removed this label a more recognizable China Glaze label was underneath, but it’s odd that this one was on top.. Anyone seen this before?

Anyways on to the swatching :p this is a purple shimmering/glittering color. I tried getting a close up picture to show it, but again with no sun out and with a normal lamp its even harder to capture. So hope this will do it for you. I have about 4½-5 coats on here. Its a really sheer polish but it was easy to apply :)

Reason for my afk’ness these last few days is my internet is not working very well. So its a pain even to browse any websites :( So I don’t know if I will be able to do any more updates before my ISP have fixed the problem. So hope you can understand why there is so little/none updates :) I try to go on my mail and twitter, but still working so slow so have given up on trying to respond to messages or emails.

I was tagged/nominated by the ever so lovely Babbling Brooke with the best blog award :D And must agree with Brooke I love all the ladies in the nailblogger community, really some one of a kind people outthere, I think you have to be with a hobby like this :P

The rules of this award are as follows:

1. To accept the award, you must post it on your blog with the name of the person who has granted you the award, and a link to their blog.
2. Pass the award on to approximately 10-15 other blogs that you recently discovered, and think are great!
3. Contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

So I have covered no. 1 :P

The second one is going to be mighty trixy. I have mentioned before I read a lot of blogs :( and it sometimes gets really overwhelming. Everyday when I log on to google reader I have around some 800 posts to go though. At the moment I have 529 subscriptions in the reader.. Danish/foreign fashion blogs, nailblogs and such, so at the same time I can give a little apology for not commenting as often as I would like, I am trying to trim it down a bit but I have no idea who not to read.. I love all the blogs I found :( So the thing about passing it on to blogs that I recently discovered is down right impossible since I cant remember which is new or which is old, feels like I havebeen following them all since the beginning. But I will give it a little try then and give it to some of the newly discovered blogs through the Polish Blogger Network :)
