Post Number 1.000

This is my post number 1.000!! That’s crazy. I mean, that’s a lot of posts. And they would never happen without you, my wonderful, fabulous readers! I’m so truly grateful for every single one of you who read my blog! And those of you who take time out of your lives to comment and make me happy. It’s actually just incredibly touching. It sounds dorky, but I consider my readers my friends, and I love you so much! And during the months I’ve been blogging, I’ve made a lot of friends. Several thousands actually. Bananas! Anyways, I just wanted to give a big fat THANK YOU to everyone! The way I see it, it’s all of you combined who make this blog, because the thought of so many thousands of girls reading it, is what inspires me the most!

A little trip down memory lane is in order..

The first pictures ever posted on this blog..

A photo shoot with my bestie when I was just getting started..

My 20th birthday just days after I started..

Moving to New York for two months, which was actually the only reason I started blogging! My initial plan was to stop blogging when I came home..

Having the time of my life in the city! I learned so much about myself and got whole new perspective on things..

I experienced new things every single day..

..but life in New York was also very exhausting at times.. In New York, every feeling you get is intensified.. When you’re happy, you’re the happiest girl in the world! And if you’re a little bummed out, you’re just.. Well, not happy.. There was a time I slept 1 hour a night, and had a little drama going on, and I was just.. I don’t know. Let’s just say the vending machine in the hallway outside of my apartment was ribbed of Oreo cookies on a daily basis,

I also experienced first hand how it is having to deal with crazy people!! My cray cray neighbors actually really scared me. There was one incident when I was spying out of the peek whole in my door, and I saw one of the ladies running around with a knife, screaming that she was about to kill herself! Eventually I had to hang this on their door..

I attended events I’d only read about in magazines.. It was so surreal to actually be a part of it! Of course I just had to suck it up and play cool, but inside I was like “Oh-My-Fucking-God-I’m-On-An-Event-With-Freakin-Josh-Hartnett”

..I met the sweetest girl in the world, Ulrikke, on a rooftop barbeque, and she’s one of my closest friends today. So incredibly grateful to have her in my life!

..I’ve been put in some really awkward situations!! Like here, when I attended a fashion show during New York Fashion Week, and suddenly the people who hosted the event pulled me backstage and said that the designer was ready for my questions!! They must have mistaken me for someone else, but I just went with it unprepared, haha!! You can check out the interview here.

I’ve tried out street style photography.. It didn’t go well!! Check out the attitude of this she-devil!!

Media started to discover my blog..

And I was nominated for having Norway’s most inspirational blog just after a month or two of blogging! I was flown to Oslo for a photo shoot where I met lots of lovely bloggers. I had never experienced anything like that, but I was trying to play it cool..

..photo shoots, media attention and thousands of readers to please was suddenly my everyday life! I got the opportunity to quit my part time job at a furniture store, which is the smartest decision I’ve ever made! My life had suddenly become completely different from life prior to the New York trip, and I loved it!! (Still do)

My MacBook and I have become inseparable! It’s the last thing I see before I go to bed, and the first thing I see when I wake up (aaw)

I think this is good for now, you’re probably bored out of your minds, poor things.. Anyway, what I’m trying to say with this post is:

THANK YOU GIRLS, I LOVE YOU ALL!!!

    aww lucky. but seriously you are so sweet. love your blog. And I feel like your friend too. :)

  35. Hei! Ville bare si at du har en utrolig bra blogg som jeg er innom sikkert 4 ganger om dagen! Jeg kommenterer veldig sjelden men nå måtte jeg bare si at jeg elsker bloggen din og at du fremstiller deg selv som en veldig bra person. Du har inspirert meg til å følge drømmene mine, og nå skal jeg til New York selv faktisk. Håper du vet hvor flink du er! Ønsker deg bare det beste, føler nesten at du er en venninne av meg selv hvor creepy det virker. Masse lykke til, babe! <3

  37. Du fortjener all den suksessen du har opplevd da :) Husker når du først begynte å poste bloggen din på Facebook når du dro, haha. Men den var jo interessant fra første stund, og det er sjelden her i bloggverden! Lykke til videre med bloggen og New York <3

  40. Aw, I love your blog! It’s the VERY first thing I check when turning on my mac. Your blog is so inspiring, and I hope to go to NY later when I get older (Im 15), your blog has inspired me even more to do so :) Thank you.

    Congrats on your 1000 post!

  43. Hei Cathrine!

    Først og fremst; du har en utrolig herlig og inspirerende blogg. Gratulerer med all suksessen du har oppnådd, den fortjener du:)

    Jeg lurer på; hvordan kom du deg på alle eventene og showene i NY med kjendiser og mektige mennesker på? Leste noe om at du hadde en promotør i et av innleggene dine fra du var i NY sist, hva gjør en promotør for deg? Hvor finner man en, og hva betaler man for en? :)

    God tur tilbake til NY, har selv vært der på ferie – helt fantastisk! Kos deg!

    Klem fra Cathrine

  46. Så gøy!!! Det har vært en fornøyelse å følge deg søta, du inspirerer og du er en solstråle som kan få hvem som helst til å smile med de vittige tekstene og selvironien din! Jeg gleder meg til å følge deg videre, og det er kanskje litt dorky, men føler du er en venninne, i alle fall en bloggvenninne :) Stor klem <3

  49. Tusen takk søte deg!

    Jeg hadde en promotør ja, han tok oss med ut et par ganger.. Det var gøy, men han tok oss ikke med på events ,bare vanlige byturer med veldig mange “fordeler” som å slippe kø, vip-avdeling og gratis drikke.. Eventene ble jeg vel invitert på, I guess :S Man betaler ikke promotors :) Stor klem

  52. No Wonder why you’re so popular. I just discovered your blog today after seeing modette had a norway version too. I’ve been browsing many fashion blogs lately and yours is one of my favorite! <3 keep it up ^^

    hello from french canada ;)
