being on a rooftop in Manhattan

In the cab yesterday afternoon, the driver asked me what my thoughts about the death of Michael Jackson are. My immediate reply was that "It's sad" and then I had nothing more to say. Thoughts in my head were spinning around and I got pretty upset about how people are and think. When this very talented man was alive, what did we do to celebrate his success? We sued him for all of his money, we said that he was a pedophile, we kept on commenting on his weird surgeries and rarely did we say anything positive and good about him. His music was only played between four walls with one or two listeners, it was no longer on the radio and his CD's weren't bought that much anymore. Michael Jackson was silent and everyone made fun of the poor guy.

June 25, 2009, Michael Jackson dies from a reason we will speculate forever, because that's just how we humans work. No one would believe that he died simply because his heart stopped, that would be boring... right?
So we keep on finding new death ways and tabloids say that it was suicide and some might say that he was abducted by aliens and now lives in space, on the moon maybe? At least he knows how to walk there.

For whatever reason there might be behind his death, did that make us all vulnerable and sad? Everywhere I go people talk about him as if they knew him, he was everyones "brother" and so on... Thriller is on repeat at every radio stations and people buy his CD's like crazy, that just makes me wonder - when did it become okay to change from talking really bad about someone to suddenly celebrate a huge talent like everyone was his greatest fan after he dies? Think about it, what did we give him while he was breathing? We gave him a lot of shit! If someone bought his CD, someone else would be there to sue him for something to get the money, what could Michael do when the whole world was against him?

My feelings about this guy are numb, kind of like most of my feelings. Meaning that I wont burst into tears, neither will I be upset or laugh. The only thing I say is that I'm happy that he finally is in a peaceful place where no one can do anything to him again... I just think that it sucks that people are like this... one day the guy is horrible... and when he cant hear you... you celebrate his talent... hmm...

Good morning from Manhattan.
My stomach is bigger than Santa Clauses because we went to a french restaurant with amazing food. I had fois gras and then duck with mushrooms and fries, with the dessert we made chocolate kisses on the table cloth and took it with us.... I'm fat but very happy! Soemething that makes me even happier is that we're going somewhere on thursday, to a crazy city on the other side of US, can you guess where we're going? For every time I'm going here it's harder to go back to Sweden... :(
Oh well, I've been sleeping to much today, guess it's about 10 am here now, need to go to Victorias Secret and find a bikini for next weekend!

I got this for Herbert, chocolate from Anthon Berg, Louis Roederer champagne and roses. Now we just need swedish meatballs to get down from our pink clouds.

Malin Von Lidl found me on the dance floor... Am I trying to dance? hmm....

The guy I'm pointing at is Herbert, he's the one I'm visiting here in New York City, isn't he just the hottest man ever?
Anyway... My Mac is fixed by a genious so from now on I will blog everyday from NYC and I hope that you'll join me :)
I'll update very soon with shopping photos!

I looooove New York City:D

I have a flight at 2 pm... can u guess where I'm going?

"I gooled playmate and diet and found your youtube video about your diet. Thought it was AWESOME :) so I decided to check out your blog for more info.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing :) I'm finally on my way to getting a better body the healthy way.

Thank you Marissa! Stay strong and gorgeous! ♥

I think that it's soooo amazing that some people believe I'm dead serious about everything, all the time.

Don't know why, but I cant put photos here... I'm working on it...

Should I have coffee or tea or stay in bed? It's very hard to be me today...

Photoshoot with Patrik Book and Johan Hiller for Studio1one and Modastar Inc, broadcasting live saturday from 2 pm.   

Don't know if it's because I'm superstitious, but this necklace really gives me a lot of luck, and I need it today in school. 

I know that some of you aren't serious, I don't care :)

Let's have a "Ask Steffi anything" time :) I'll clean apartment and you'll ask me question, Swedish, English, Japanese, doesn't matter! If I don't have enough questions by tonight, we'll continue tomorrow. Come on guys :)

At the bus stop an old man with one crutch resting him left arm and a beige fabric bag in his other hand sat down next to me. He looked tired and worn out, life had set its marks all over his face, hands and soul. He started talking to me and told me about his knee that had to be replaced many times and this was the last time, he said to me with a certain voice. His eyes were grey and I wanted to know what he'd seen with them through the many years of his life. He told me how he got beaten down and robbed by young boys last week and told me that he couldn't stand up in the wind that blew, which I though was nothing... for him it was a painful, strong storm. I helped him to get on his bus because he couldn't do it by himself and all the other people around ignored this polite yet weak man. It was a sad and beautiful moment at the same time... After 60, 70, 80 and even 90 years on this earth, is that what we get? Hopefully he enjoyed talking to me and that I made his sad soul a little happier, he certainly turned my day around!

Still not sleeping, I'm thinking about "Herbert", he's making me crazy... for sure...

I found a cool site. Type in your stats and compare your BMI with celebrities! 

You all know by now that I'm working really hard to get into modeling. And while drinking my tea after a two hour run(!) I came over a list of what the supermodels make a year, and it's really impressive!

I need a high fashion photographer to take TFP photos for my website and portfolio.

Looks like the weather will be nice today too :) Coffee and ab-workout and then I'm out for a 7-lap run.

I didn't get much sleep at all last light thanks to my neighbor, I was awake and scared all night... It was quite frightening but I can't tell you what happen. Anyway, I'm having coffee and reading "Shape", I did my but workout and will head out for 6 laps as soon as I finish my coffee.
