I’m a big Saturday Night Live fan and they never stop to suprise me! I loved this last Saturday with Taylor Lautner. He’s really a great actor and Io love people who can make fun of themselfves! it’s amazing! I specially loved the opening monlogue and the Team Edward vs Team Jacob skit. If you haven’t seen it you need to check it out!

Ok, I’m sitter here at home and my laptop is not working at the moment and I wanna find something out.. so I of course went to google something on my Blackberry, it works just as good as the laptop!
I love the fact that I have applications for google maps, BBM, word press, e-book, facebook, twitter, myspace, pandora and more on my BB. It makes everything so easy!
I don’t know how they do it in Sweden… Blackberry’s in Sweden is not popular at all, mostly because they are very expensive to buy and to use and it’s mostly a business phone! Here it seems like everybody has a blackberry or iphone and if they don’t have it they want one! Here it’s def a lifestyle to have one and be connected 24/7! You can never really get away and people can always reach you, unless you have T-mobile in Hollywood Hills then your out of luck 
lol
My friends and family in Sweden thinks I’m crazy for having such a “big” phone and that it’s not nessesary to have all these applications on your phone. I mean why not ? It makes life so much easier

I’m one of the people that are “obsessed” with Twilight. Last year when the first movie came out and everybody told me that they loved it and that I had to see it, I just laught. I didn’t think that a movie about vampires could be THAT good. I first saw it in June and I have seen it 6 times since. In August when I was flying home to Sweden I bought the book for the 16h plane ride home and I read all 4 books in 2 weeks and I have re-read them since. I have seen New Moon twice now and it won’t be the last time. Can’t wait for the next one this summer. I have also read the first 264 pages of Midnight Sun(5th book) that leaked online, it’s Twilight from Edward’s eyes and I understand Twilight and the Cullen family a lot better now and I like them a lot better.. didn’t know how that was possible but anyways
I feel kinda sorry for the actors tho… they are being chased around like crazy and not one moment to themselves at all but I guess that goes with the job.
I have heard many Harry Potter fans bashing Twilight which is very funny and I love going on this site called www.mylifeisaverage.com and read all the crazy stories about this kinda stuff!
In the end the hysteria around these movies are crazy but I love it It’s all good PR! People even think the relationship between Robert and Kristen is real, which I find very funny as well.
XOXO
Ok, I’ve been sick for the last 3 weeks so I haven’t been able to come to class or post but here we go!
Halloween is tomorrow and it’s my favorite “holiday” ever. I remember in Sweden when I was little it didn’t exist. We have something similar called “Alla Helgona” which is the same thing but it’s just for the church and it’s the week after Halloween here. Now finally it’s getting big back home but people celebrate it on the wrong day cause they don’t know better!
They have done a really good job with marketing and PR all over the world for Halloween, it’s amazing! Now everyone celebrates it!
What a lot of people don’t know is that it’s actually a Gaelic holiday, it comes from Ireland and they used to carve turnips and it’s when they started celebrate it here in the U.S that the pumpkins became a symbol for it.
I hope you all have a safe Halloween weekend!

Hey!
I ran into The Hills crew at Playhouse last Thursday and it’s not the first, second or third time I have met them either.. But it’s all so fake. I actually talked to Kristin Cavallari this time and she’s really nice, just too bad she plays such a bitch on tv! but she always fun to watch. I can’t stand spencer, like everyone else and brody is way to stuck up and so are most of them actually.
I grew up watching Laguna Beach or at least the first 2 seasons and now I wonder, was that as fake as this is ? It prob was.. Everybody back home watch The Hills to see what kind of lives they could live instead of being stuck at home.. but they don’t realize how fake it really is and that they are all standing around the cameras waiting for them to say their lines.. it’s just sad that this show has got this big and that people think it’s real.
They should do a show about me and me friends instead. it would be much more fun to watch lol
XOXO
Hey!
Sitting on the bus down to Santa Monica right now and thinking about the entertainment industry!
Entourage has been one of my favorite shows since is came out. Used to watch it all the time in Sweden thinking that it was way over the top and that it can’t be that extreme but since I moved to LA, I have realized that the show is so true! I have friends that are in PR, Managers, agents and of course the talent aka famous and their lives are just like the show! The show is not over the top, this town is! But since I’ve in that world, I love it and I would not trade it for anything and I wanna work in it too! My friends back home think that I’m making stuff up and that I’m full of lies but they don’t even know what it’s like!
If you compare The Hills that people think is real when it’s so fake and scripted to this show that is actually real, it makes me laught!
Have to jump off the bus now lol

Ok, I have gotten really into music since the people I have gotten to know here in LA. I have always liked music, but I have never listend to music like this before. Now it’s just not about the lyrics and the melody, now it’s about everything that is underneath that, the beats and the different sound effects. The Monster Beats by Dr Dre makes you hear everything that you missed before. I have never heard a lot of stuff that I’m hearing now. If you love music you def need to get these! I found out about these headphones on my favorite music site www.dipdive.com it’s a site that started by Will.I.Am from the Black Eyed Peas cause he had nowhere to put up his song/video for “Yes, We can” that he did for the Obama election. There are so many talented people here and I can be on here for hours just going to different peoples pages and listen to their songs are remixes. The site is mainly BEP but a lot of more artist are jumping on it. Ther are interacting with there fans on a different level here and they always upload funny videos, pics and blogs. Before there new album The E.N.D came out they released alot of there songs on here. if you wanna check my site out it’s: http://dipdive.com/member/rebeckajansson
That’s all for now

Hey!
Just woke up and I’m thinking about how the media has been affecting me since I moved to LA i Jan 09!
It’s weird how much it has, I wouldn’t been living the same life if it wasn’t for my friends that brought me into this “Hollywood Lifestyle”.Since I got here I’ve walked the red carpet, been to premier parties, taken some pics for Playboy, learned how you make music with some of the best musicians in LA and prob the world, been to a TV set etc
I can’t imagine a world without media, specially not music and maybe my blackberry
I never know where I’m gonna end up or what’s gonna happen. Like this Tues night after class. when my friend was done editing some stuff for the new video for this very known band that they are shooting right now, he picked me up and we went to a studio to play around with music and in the morning I went with him to a live tv show that he was gonna be on..
Also a lot of my friends here work in PR, promotions or are musicians/DJs so I have learned so much from them just watching them work and play. That’s why I wanna get into Music PR, marketing and advertisement.
In the end of it all, none of us would be the same person we are now if it wasn’t for the pics, videos we see in the media and how if changes us even if we want to or not. Me, I love the media and that’s why am taking this class and that’s why I wanna work in the entertainment industry here in Hollywood!
until next time,
XOXO
