As the people who read my blog already know; I went back to Norway. Sat-Thurs. Today (as I was back in Swiss school and met all the peeps), a lot of people asked me how it was, how I'm doing (and - not mentioning names - from some the first question I received was: "was the funeral sad?". Retarded. Sorry. I just don't find that appropriate) and so on. The thing is that there are so many different emotions tied down to having to go home for such an occasion. It was nice coming back and meeting my family and friends and so, but at the same time the reason I went gave me the feeling that I couldn't enjoy it properly. I wasn't really supposed to go there. And so it felt really good coming back here. I feel very comfortable in Switzerland, I do. I'm sure going back to Norway will be a lot more fun when I go back in summer (when I'm supposed to go back).


Took this photo from one of the three flights I was on. This is how my hometown looked like yesterday.


Anyways. To most peoples' surprise; I hate flying. Haaate it. I love traveling, but I hate flying. You might say that boat and/or train is ideal, but no. Boats make me sick and trains tend to take too long (I am one impatient bastard when it comes to traveling). It's not like I'm crying inside when I'm flying. Hoooowever. I do tend to breath quickly (especially during landing and takeoff) and sweat more (sexy I know). Another thing that bugs me about flying; aall the people. My god. If you hate me and want me to suffer, shut me inside a huge airport (like Schipol. Die) with millions of people. I go insane. I swear. I can't take it. For an hour, it's alright, but when I'm bored at looking at random people, getting tired/hungry/thirsty/tired of peeing (eheh), it stinks.


Flying does bring some joys. In Norwegian this is pretty funny. HEHE.


And not to talk about the flight itself. It's impossible. I'm glad I'm not stepping on an airplane again until July. And then probably a few more times in July/August. But whatever. I'll live.


AAAAAAW. My mop (his name is Gizmo, but you can see where I have the nickname from). Look at how big he iis. Looking forward to meeting this fella again.


Sonst (heheheeey, German being infiltrated), I had my country presentation today. I was well prepared; powerpoint presentation, que cards (that I actually read through) and all was good. But. Seeing as I was home about half past twelve last night, and didn't go to bed until waaaay later. I told the que cards to eat shit, and just did whatever (looked at my PP pictures and took it from there). I mean, I've lived there for 17,5 years, how hard can it be? I think it went alright though, they told me I did good. And they did laugh about as much as I wanted them to (I was going for comedy, and it's nice knowing that I can be funny sometimes).


My bestest friend Jeffy came to see me at the airport in Oslo (had to wait 5 hours. WOOhoo..). But with her it was fun afterall! As allllways. As you can see, we took some charming photos.


This is me, climbing out of my suitcase, after fitting inside it. BELIEVE it. I can bring myself as luggage. BEat that (it wasn't comfortable, if you're wondering). Just a random photo I like.


And guess what. I've got a week off. Woopwoop. What will I dooooo? HMM. It's snowing. I won't be sleeping in. Actually I've got a fair share of stuff to do. Loveit.

Then.

Cheers for now

I know. It's beeeeenn. 12 days since I posted. I'm sorry (Susanne! Slutt å være so flink til å blogge!). I'm just not feeling it, seeing as the younger sister is fleeing the country (read: leaving me!) and I have to start doing anything at all in school. I dunno. Oh, and I'm sick again..

In the meantime enjoy this

For a costume party Hannah and I dressed as Norwegian snow bimbo's! Big hit!

How my hair looked on New years! Haha, well, here it wasn't finished yet. But it was still just the look on my face (and my sexy, manly shoulders) that convinced me to post this photo anyways.

Sometime next week I'll write something. I'm sure.

Toooodles

Holidays

So, Christmas. I'll just get right to it. It was different. There's no doubt about that. We had something french, pizza-ish for dinner. It wasn't Christmas, but it was very good. We played some Christmas songs (Norwegian, German and English ones) on youtube on guitar or just a cappella. Then we talked and opened our presents (where I had a few more than the others, hihi).

THANKYOU EVERYONE. My presents were awesome! I loved them all! I don't know if I want to start writing up all the stuff I got, but I don't want people do know exactly how spoiled I am.

Apart from that I've been boarding every morning, and if I dare to say it myself, I've made a little bit progress. It's not a lot, but it's something. I'm looking forward to actually reach a decent level, so that I can do real jumps and tricks. Until then, I'll just stay at the tiny little lumps I'm doing atm.

So this is where I snowboard.

It's been kinda cold lately..

Tomorrow is new years and I'm probably going out to celebrate with friends. Apart from that my agenda is starting to fill up: Everyday go snowboarding (seeing as I've got a season pass and still a week and a half of vacation), then school starts (and now I have to work. Buh), then Hannah is going to Canada (CRYING), then we've got another week of vacation in the start of february (snowboarding!!), then sometime in that near future my birthday is coming up (Lisa and I have found out what we're gonna give each other, but I'm gonna talk about that laterrr), then I've got this English test I've gotta doo, then we've got the school prom thing, then Lisa and I will (hopefully throw a big party together), then Easter's up and then I'll be going to Germany (Munich (München) and some other place), then Lisa and I plan to go to Paris for a long weekend sometime in April/May, then there's some festival sometime in June/July and.. then I'm back. I don't know. I have this feeling it's gonna go extremely fast. And now that I'm done with Christmas (which I have dreaded and turned out not to be so bad), I don't want it to rush by. I just know I'll do my best to stay happy all the time and just make sure I make the best out of my last few months here.

I dunno bout you guys, but fireworks kinda scare me. Might have something to do with me almost being hit last (?) year, but it looks nice. I just keep a healthy distance when they're being fired.


Now you all know a little bit about what I'm doing the next few months, and since I'm in addition plan to start working out like I normally do (at least once a day, preferably a few times a week two..), you might understand how I'll be busy. But I like it like that. Sitting still way too much sucks. But I'll then also try to write about swiss life and not just, I dunno, random shit.

So I'm going here (with AFS). It looks nice. I've never been in Germany before, but I'm sure it'll be good (read: cheap!).


And hopefully I'm going here! I've been to Paris once, but I was a rebellious teenager and didn't really do anything. Now I'll (I hope) be going with someone who speaks fluent French and probs stay with her old host family. Good stuff.

So guys, happy new year. Be nice, and maybe santa will give you just as many cool presents next year as he did this year!

Cheers for now

YAY!

Cheers for now

Shortie

Warning, photos taken completely out of context.

I found this cute internet site some other day. Sadly I don't remember the link, but I'm sure I'll find it again and post more photos! It's just a random fact every day (I'm not surprised that I knew more of half of them from before, lol'd).

Hehehehe. Ej å du Jarnfrid.. ej å duuuuu knis

Just a shortie for today, on Christmas Eve or Christmas day I'll try to make a really big (riesen gross) post. And then when the holiday is over I'll do my best to be funny and actually talk about stuff that has to do with Switzerland and my exchange year (do account for some random stuff though).


This will be my signature style all through winter. Why? It's warm, it looks alright and it soo comfortable. I love this t-shirt, and my new woolen tights my mom sent me (and the 17 (14?) pairs of socks she sent me too). Good stuff, good stuff. Kinda cool actually, socks (which you can't see) are Angora wool in other words from Angora, tee bought in London, underwear from switzerland (also a can't see), tights from Norway (I assume) and the cardigan is from Italy. Woopwoop


The thing is that I can sit on the train and listen to music and have a million of thoughts about what I can write here, about what's good and what I know people would like to know (both Norwegian and Swiss), and then I sit down to write it. And nothing comes out. I mean, I dunno. There has to be something about my room/house that ruins my creativity (I'm serious, I've felt a huge downfall in lust and ability of making creative stuff since I came here(has nothing to do with the family, maybe just my surroundings)). This is bad, because I like doing creative stuff. It's always something I've been able to do if I feel down and I've always done it good/good enough. You know?


This is the kinda stuff I did to pass time whilst sick (failed to mention that I've been sick on/off pretty much for three weeks and I've ended up ruining my sleeping rhythm (read: slept anything from 0 hours to 14 hours per day..). Extremely creative, I know..


Anyways, it's soon Christmas, and I'm starting to look forward to it. I don't have the same mood I get in Norway, but that probably has something to do with the surroundings too. Anyways, I'm not not looking forward to it anymore, and to me, that's one big step forward!

Hahah, this is todays geography lesson. The good sketches are obviously not mine. There are also a few more pieces of paper, but I don't have them. Maybe they're not finished yet? Either way. Best. School day. Ever.



Cheers for now
