150/366

Yep, so this is me this morning. I’m very tired, so I just made a really strong batch of coffee.. I guess the other coffee drinking people in the house will toss it out because it was too strong. But I managed to drink a large cup. Felt I needed it.

Got to bed at 23.30 yesterday but didn’t fall asleep until after midnight. So getting up at 06.00 today felt very early. But I did promise my mom, and she had to go to work. I would just have gotten one more hour of sleep anyway. Because in 15 minutes, I have to get out to the car and drive to work myself. I start at 08.30 today, so I can get out the newspapers ++ before the store opens at 09.00.

So I guess it will be a busy day, Saturdays usually is. And I always feel I have to have control over everything. But I pretty much do, hehe :) Then I’ll end at 16.30. Which leaves me just 40 minutes before I have to be ready for being picked up for the BBQ. It will be okay though, I just have to wrap up everything at work a bit early. And I just have to put on some regular clothes and a bit makeup. So it will be good. We’re playing paint ball, so I guess I’ll get sweaty anyway :) And when that’s over, we’ll drive home at 21.00. THEN I have to take a shower before taking the bus downtown to do some partying :) I won’t be that active, but since I just have a month left at work before quitting, I feel I have to participate. I’m slightly afraid I’ll fall asleep on the bus down to the city though, lol.

Well, I better quit now. I guess I won’t be on the internet more today :)

I’m currently lying in bed, with my new laptop computer! I love it :D

I’m getting up in just 6,5 hours, to drive my mom to work, then go to work myself. So I need to sleep now.

Tomorrow it will be a summer party at work, so I won’t be able to use the computer at all during tomorrow. Just maybe in the evening. We’ll see.

Good night, Internet!

So! I just ordered one of these laptop lunch boxes! I’m not entirely sure if I’m going to use it, but I got really inspired. And since I’m going to school again in August, I really ought to get a real lunchbox anyway :)

So I hope I will be able to make pretty little bento boxes in time, hehe. We’ll see.
BUT; check out the images in the flickr pool! They are lovely.

Also, yesterday I (my dad) ordered the laptop I’m getting. “hp compaq 8510p” with an extra travel battery. They say it’s noisy, but the computer I have now is SUPER noisy, so I guess I’ll get used to it. Plus, I plan on turning it off at night etc. It’s scored pretty good on some tests too, so I’m pretty sure it will be okay :) Can’t wait for it to arrive in a few days!

And now it’s just 5 days until I’ll get the key to the apartment. It’s so exciting :D

My sister, Marianne/Stormun, is talent of the month at the norwegian page “trafo.no” :D

http://www.trafo.no/arena/stormun/17513 is the address to the page of the drawing

This started with me getting a moomin cup from Sara, as a birthday present. It was of hattifatteners drinking tea :D If you need proof that I love it, just watch this:

And when I was done doing that, I thought: why don’t check out this store where she found it! (Only 4 of the stores in the whole of Norway) And so I did. ting.as was the address. (”ting” means “thing”) With a selection of their nice things, it didn’t take me long to pick out some favourites. And here they are!

More moomin cups! I WANT HUFSA! (the groke)

and this laptop pillow can come in handy, because this year’s present from my parents, is a laptop, for when I’m going away to study.

The moo.com page has a new look! Now it’s much easier to know what you get when you order a ready made pack. Like I did last time. This is the pack I got, and I love it :D But I would probably have gotten it sooner if I could see which images was going to appear :)

17th of may

YUM!
17th of May cake

lots of cream, bananas, berries etc.

Did the usual thing, put on the “bunad”, went to look at the “parade”, ate cake and had a nice time :)

OH; AND I GOT INTO THE SCHOOL! Got a letter that said I was accepted. Can’t reply until July though, because that’s when everyone else knows if they get in or not.

I’ve been munching on pastilles all day, because of a sore throat. I was told it made strange noises in the night, and when I woke up, I had trouble speaking. Luckily it got better during the day. So I’m hoping it will be perfectly fine tomorrow, when I go to work again. (won’t start until 11, so I have a long night’s sleep ahead of me!). The 11-19 shift is usually quite boring, but since Saturday it’s 17th of May (the national day) and we will be closed, I guess a LOT of people will shop for the weekend tomorrow. Which is good, because the day moves on so much faster then :)

I’m going to make a cake tomorrow too, when I get home. The ingredients are ready, and since it’s a so called “bløtkake” (soft cake) it will just be better by sitting in the fridge over night. It’s made of just a ready made bottom cut in three, whipped cream, bananas, raspberry jam and some chocolate shavings. Hopefully the cream won’t have a weird taste this year.

What I’ve done today isn’t much, but I went with some friends, and watched an episode of the Planet Earth documentary series. It’s so great, and when watched on Kristian’s giant TV, it’s even more awesome!

I really haven’t been thinking that much about the furniture etc lately, I haven’t got a mail back yet, and I’m trying to live a bit in the moment :) BUT; I bought a cute coffee set for just 50NOK ($10) the other day, at a thrift store. It was 5 pieces of each. I’ll post a photo some day :)

Well, it’s time for bed I guess. Later!

Pretty!
