Hi there! I think there was one other person at school today. It was a tiny bit creepy, but I've been at school when there's close to no people at school before. I did get a bit of reading done, so I'm happy with that. I read a chapter about our skeleton (anatomy) this morning, and tomorrow I'll read about illnesses and diagnoses that's related to the skeleton. I am reading all of this to prepare for my praksis, so it's not for any exam. Though I'm not sure if it's a part of the curriculum or not. I also got a few other school-related things I need to get done preferably within tomorrow. It's just so much, and it's a constant struggle between wanting to be productive and do school-stuff, and to just chill and spend time on social media. Ugh. I've also spent loooooooaaaads of money on school-related things today. It's safe to say that I won't be much of a big spender this autumn. One of the things I've invested in, is a new computer. Finally-- I've been thinking about buying a new one for years now, and Monchita has probably been telling me to get a new computer for a year now. I'm constantly scared that my current computer will shut down, and I'll end up with nothing. I've had this computer for five years, so I'm not sure how I'll adapt to the new one. I was reading up on all the features on the chosen pc, and I was like "what the hell is that?". Everything is so modern these days, and I've not even chosen a really new model. I think I'll mostly use the new one for school-related things, so I'll still be using this for personal use as long as it will have me. Main point is that it sucks spending lots of money on things, when it could potentially have been used on travelling. To this very day, I remember listening to my teacher's sister-in-law telling us how she would rather spend all her money earned on travels rather than her drivers licence. Lols, I'm currently listening to a playlist on my iTunes consisting of the 25 songs I've listened to the most. And Diana by One Direction is one of them. I am really surprised, seeing as the mentioned song was one of the songs I didn't like from the album. I am really looking forward to hear some new music from the lads, though I'm a bit nervous about change of directions. I had this very strange realisation yesterday: there's loads of beautiful men in this world (well, loads of beautiful people, but). Like, I was just walking past this man who looked absolutely gorgeous, and I got this realisation. I've got this thing where I don't like staring at people, but man, I'm trying to get more comfortable staring at people so I can stare at gorgeous men. Maybe it should be one of my new years resolutions for next year? (my goodness, I am so strange. Can't believe myself sometimes). Speaking of new years, I also had a realisation today that it's soon Christmas. Or, well, not really. But it's getting darker at night, and it's obvious that autumn is coming (or already here). Might be time to bring out the jumpers again. Oh, I am going to write about Dublin soon. I've just not finished my own diary of Dublin yet, so it might take a bit of time. But hey, here's a picture of legs on sofa's and chairs in the lounge room at HTL Kungsgatan in Stockholm. Goodness, I really love that hotel. It's almost tempting going to Stockholm just to stay at that hotel. Alright, I must go to bed if I want an early start tomorrow. Sleep well x.

running after you is like chasing the clouds
It's Juneeeeeeeee! I am up bright and early because I wanted to listen to Grimmy whilst having a nice and calming breakfast. This (pictures) was my breakfast a few days ago-- I do love me some avocado. I've just listened to Niall doing the You & I chorus because Harry was sick. I think it's a bit amusing, because Niall is like the go-to substitute when someone's sick. It's not even a joke. He's even been a substitute for Zayn! But I guess he's sort of versatile. I've also just watched a man dancing like crazy to Through The Dark at the concert. It was both amusing and a bit heart warming, because he was dancing with people who I assume were his friends. And it just looked like a lot of fun. It's only twelve days left until I'm going to see the concert. And though it is One Direction, my excitement level isn't very high. I think it's because I have a feeling it won't be as good as last years. And I honestly don't think it will. Only time will tell, I suppose., because my last years expectations were exceeded. Anyway, my brother is coming home tomorrow, I think. It's nice, because I think he's finished his studies, and he'll probably move to the area. That is if he doesn't completely surprise us and moves to Japan or summat. Or, well, I wouldn't exactly have been that surprised. But it'll be good to have him back home, and it's not long until Volla comes down for a short visit. So that will be really nice. Yesterday's handball match ended with a win for Flesburg, which I realised might have been the underdog? It was a really good game, and really tense. It's my favourite kind. This week I'm learning basic knowledge about road traffic, so that's sort of school? Strangely enough, I'm sort of looking forward to it. Don't know whether that is a good sign or not, ha. I'm going to catch up on some Youtube videos now, whilst I have time. Have a nice Monday everyone!

running after you is like chasing the clouds
Before you go on reading, I had not had an ounce of alcohol at the moment I am going to describe furthermore. So, a few days ago, I went to a revue with Lynx. This was an hour after we had been at the mall (buying wedding related things) for six hours. So we were exhausted. My sister and her friend (who also was at the mall with us) wanted coffee, and I went for a cider. My sister ended up going for a cider in addition to her coffee. Nor my sister or her friend had brought cash, so I was the one to splash out. The alcoholic beverages were sold at a separate table to the other beverages. Lynx and I first went for the ciders, and this guy told me he'd like to see my I.D., which I of course allowed him to do. And it was all fine. But for some strange reason, they opened the ciders for us. It's strange to me, because I've never experienced that before. It was a nice act though, just not so good for me in hindsight. When we got to the other table, I was holding my cider in the crook of my elbow, whilst digging out some cash for the coffee and simultaneously trying to put my I.D. back. What happened is that I was so focused on my wallet, that I didn't notice my cider going a bit askew, and starting to spill. The guy behind the table (who conveniently happens to be a childhood friend) tried to warn me before the spill happened. Simultaneously the guy from the alcholic-beverages-table came running towards me to prevent the spill. Luckily I reacted quite quick, so there was little spillage. Plus I was wearing my raincoat, so it didn't matter that much. However the alcoholic-beverage-table-guy ran into the kitchen and grabbed some paper towel and ran back. I reached out my hand to grab the paper towel, but instead of giving me the paper towel, he took my arm and wiped it for me. In which I found highly amusing. "Wow, great service," I commented. Story of my life. Anyway, I realise I've been absent from this blog. But there's a lot of things going on seeing as my sister is getting married, and this is the first time my computer has been on since the last time I posted here. I'll probably stay absent for the rest of the holiday. But here's a few pictures of the past days. Have a happy easter!

cause baby running after you is like chasing the clouds
Hello again, it's just turned dark(er) outside, and it's almost like it's been better for my mood. Oh goodness, I keep doing this to myself. Just realised I hadn't listened to Nick Grimshaw's breakfast show in ages, and so when I scrolled past the upcoming and old broadcasts, I saw that Bastille will be in the studio tomorrow. And I went yayyyy and then I remembered once again that I've not got tickets for the show. Great for my wallet, but awful for my soul. And I am absolutely not being dramatic and over exaggerating. Absolutely not. Kiwi has once again been my saving angel. Maybe her many epiphanies have infected me. But after having eaten my lunch (which really was an early dinner), I watched the whole Adele concert in the Royal Albert Hall, and it was really nice and relaxing. Then I did a little brainstorming, and it was great, because now I actually feel like I have a bit of control. Oh, currently listening to 1975 on the breakfast show, and it reminds me of their concert in Norway, which I'll miss because I'm going to Bergen. I don't think I would have gone anyway, or, maybe. I'm not quite sure, because I've been listening to them a lot lately. Another thing I'm going to miss whilst being in Bergen is the 1D day, which is a 7(!!!!!) hour long live show. I'm not quite sure what they will do for such a long time, but it sure as hell should make up for zero twitcams during the Take Me Home tour. Is it really pathetic that I'm sad because there's close to no new pictures of 1D? Probably, yeah. It's good that I don't care, then. Oh, and Niall as an uncle is horrible. Actually, 1D with babies in general is horrible. Is it too early to hope that some of them will produce babies soon? Anyway, I've gotten a new favourite hobby; looking at houses. Had to stop myself today from scrolling through all the houses for sale, and then I went on to look at strollers, which probably is a worse hobby. Oh, and I also found my paint-stuff, because I've not painted in forever, so I decided to change that today. I'm not very creative, but hey, it's my favourite part from Story of My Life. (Zayn I love youuuu). I'm going to exercise in a bit, and then jump in the shower. And hopefully, I'll get some work done within the evening. I've got lectures tomorrow, but it isn't until later, so that's nice. It's nice not having to wake up early every day. Not that I've been at school every day, in fact, I've barely been at school. It's like I don't go to school at all. I still hope that you're being loads more productive than me, though, according to the snapchats I'm getting from Oyster, the productivity level isn't that high today.

written in these walls are the stories I can't explain
These gifs have had a comeback on my Tumblr dashboard for some reason. And like, just now that the Take Me Home tour is done as well. It's like the universe is purposely mocking me. Like yes hi, now that it's all over, let's reminisce to when you were at their concert back in may, and there's nialler with the Norwegian flag and he's wearing ski goggles as the lads encouraged the concert-attenders to bring along. And let's remember that it was maybe the first and last concert they are doing here. I should definitely stop looking for signs, honestly. I managed to creep myself out last night just before bed. I was throwing away something in my little bag of trash that I've hung on the handles of my closet. Mind you, this was in the dark. And then after getting back in bed, the bag fell down, and I grudgingly got out of bed to fix it. But then it fell again, so I took my time to make sure it wasn't going to fall down. My next thought was "if it falls down again, it's due to a ghost". And well, what did you think happened? It fell down. Normally I wouldn't be so freaked out, but I recently read some Halloween fan fiction that were a bit creepy, and then I'd actually thought about ghosts earlier in the day. Like when I was sitting downstairs watching mens handball (we won, by the way. That was the most surprising turnaround I've seen in mens handball) and I felt this breeze of coldness. And I just immediately thought of ghosts. And because I'm me, and can't stop scaring myself, I thought about my sleepwalking. Remember when I wrote about that? Well, I told Lynx and Grepper when I was back in Aalesund, and Lynx just laughed and said: "yeah, you used to do that when you were younger". And I was like, why does no one tell me about these things? So yesterday I thought, what if there is a ghost in this house, and I hang out with it when I'm sleep walking, ala Paranormal Activity 3. Well, I basically had to watch two vlogs on Youtube to forget those thoughts, or else I'd never fall asleep. I'm up bright and early because I need to send in the paper to our teacher. I would do it now, but I'm not quite sure where I'm supposed to send it. Also, very exciting news: Marble might come with Kiwi and I to the Kodaline concert in December. It's going to be so good, swaying around with beers in our hands. It sounds really ideal right now. Oh, which reminds me of One Direction again-- I watched a video from their concerts in Japan, and they managed to get the crowd completely silent before they did an acapella of Story Of My Life without microphones. It made me think of Ed Sheeran who manages to shush crowds in that manner outside of Japan. (You see Japanese crowds are seriously awesome. They are so respectful, and they don't really scream that much, and when Niall asked if they were excited, they didn't scream- nope, they all shouted "yes!"). But yes, it also made me think of a world where One Direction is an indie band that does intimate gigs. Oh, what a coincidence that I'm listening to Kodaline and that he just sang "in a perfect world". Yeah. Lynx's birthday is in about a week, and Volla told me that Grepper is having a surprise party for her, which is really nice. I would come, but I was just in Aalesund, and plus Lynx and David is coming in about two weeks. Maybe I'll use my new baking knowledge to actually bake something? I probably should. Also, I need to make a birthday card. Oh exciting news! I've actually bought one Christmas present. I'm so late with my Christmas shopping this year, and I'm worried I'll be all stressed up to the exam. Or if I have to do last minute shopping after the exam, which, I probably will. I have a feeling that I'm going to blog loads in November, which again, reminds me of One Direction (goodness, I'm internally face palming myself because I could probably associate everything with One Direction if I wanted)-- I was looking at pictures of them from the première of This Is Us in Tokyo, and the ones that can grow facial hair were sporting some moustaches, which makes me think they might do "Movember"? That would be awesome. Alright, now, have a nice Monday, and hopefully you'll find joy in the little things in life.

story of my life
Here it is, I guess. It's a nice story line and all, but I just don't necessarily think it fits to the actual song lyrics, which is a bit disappointing. But overall it's very nice. And I would rather have this plotline, rather than them running after some chick. Also, it's nice to see the emotional aspect to them as well. I think it's the Louis scene that hits me the most. That's the part that made me cry. I'm currently watching men's handball between Norway and Denmark. And it's safe to say that Denmark is in another league. I'd love to rant about it, but unless you're a handball fanatic, I don't think it's going to be very interesting.

the fire beneath my feet is burning bright
Look! Marble and I made Halloween cupcakes. Well, mainly Marble. But I'm a pretty good assistant now! I met up with her at the local costume shop on Thursday, and then she started talking about making themed cupcakes, and since I figured that it was for us, why not help her out? Her mum greeted me, saying "baking again, are we?". We ended up arriving at the pre-party about 8:30 pm, said hi to the people I'd not met before, and then I guess the drinking started? And instead of dancing, there was a lot of chatting and anecdotes and whatnot. I befriended the cat that apparently was shy. The trick is to sit still and let the cat come to you, not the other way. Makes the cat think that it's in the control of the situation. Christ, I read into these situations too much. You know how some people get really excitable and happy when drinking alcohol? I'm pretty sure I'm the opposite. I'm taking that as a good sign, because I don't actually like the thought of pouring poison in my body. It's the same with unhealthy stuff, and let me tell you-- I've been sooooooo unhealthy the last three weeks. And I'm not opposed to eating unhealthy because I'm afraid to gain weight. No, the thing is that whenever I indulge in something unhealthy, I get a picture in my head of my veins slowly but surely getting clogged. Same with alcohol, can just see my organs starting to fail. So I guess I'm going to try being healthy for a bit now. That's a bit ironic, as I'm currently nibbling on some chocolate. Oh well, we didn't end up going out on the town until really late, and the queue to the club we had originally planned to attend was too long for our liking, and people were being all push-y and horrid. So we decided to go to the neighbour club, which I think was a great choice. And they had all this cool old-school music, which I thought was brilliant! I would very much enjoy going there again. At some point Kiwi and Marble turned hungry, so we went for a hunt of food. Oh haha, that's a bit funny. Or, well, it is to me. The thing is that Kiwi was dressed up as a vampire, and whilst waiting for Marble to buy herself some food, Kiwi decided to pretend "attack" people from behind. Hence why I thought it was funny that I wrote "we went for a hunt of food". Was it not funny? Okay. Kiwi and I ended up getting chicken burgers, which were average, but it was nice sitting inside, shielding from the cold. When we finally decided to brace the cold, we started running down the streets of Karl Johan, and then there was a guy starting running towards Marble, and they bumped into each other, which made Marble fall. And if you'd seen, it was hilarious. Eventually we carried on running, until we decided to take a taxi back to Kiwi's. The taxi driver was actually really nice. I like nice taxi drivers, they are the best because they always have stories to tell as well. When we arrived at our destination, we shrugged out of our clothes and into our sleeping attire, and made ourselves ready for bed. But we stayed up chatting for a bit, which was actually really nice. And then I lulled them to sleep with my nice calming choice of music. Also managed to lull myself asleep at one of the songs, but woke up an hour later or somewhat to turn off the soundspeaker, which was probably nice for the neighbours considering the time was 5:00 am. I think we woke up five hours later, which means I was really tired yesterday. Kiwi was thankfully nice and dandy. I think we're all a bit apprehensive about Kiwi getting sick now. And although I was more alcohol influenced that Thursday night, I still had the need to take care of people. And it's weird, because I know the importance of drinking water when alcohol is in the picture, and I handed both Kiwi and Sugar glasses of water in concern of their well being, but I guess I forgot about handing myself some water as well. Anyway, when we woke up, we ate our breakfast and chatted, well, I mostly listened to Kiwi and Marble chatting about the things you need in order to be a good dancer. We did try to go up on the roof for the thousand time, but it was closed. Again. When I got home, I did my normal routine of catching up on all the medias I usually go through. Also watched a bit of Nigella, which has turned into my new guilty pleasure. Scoot over Grand Designs and The Ward. And then I watched a bit of men's handball, which is really cool because the men are way better when it comes to tricks. I did the mistake of napping from 7:30 pm till' 11:00 pm. I was just a bit tired from the day before, seeing as I didn't sleep for that long. I did a bit of reading and watching Youtube before I went to bed again at 2:00 am. And because I had that nap, I woke up at 8:30 am today. And now I'm here after eating spring rolls that I helped to create. I'm mostly spending today writing on my paper, and hopefully I'll be done within the day is over. Technically it should work, but you never know when I decide to procrastinate and be stupid. Also, I really want to play Sims. Like, agggg. But I'm not going to. And wait, people, it's NOVEMBER! Bloody hell, where did the time go? At least this means it's three weeks left until I'm visiting Ale. That should be ace. Have a nice Saturday xx.

written on these walls are the colours that I can't change
Here it is! I kept my promise for once! I bought the lipstick a week ago, but it's called "Diva Red" and it's by Rimmel. Yesterday I bought myself a new "Face and body" foundation by MAC, because I needed a lighter shade for my winter skin. And as you can see in the second photo, it's quite the difference. Both in size and color. I went with a 50 ml bottle because that was the only one available in the shop, but also because I wouldn't need a bigger one. I've had the 120 ml bottle for ages, and it's a bit unpractical as you can't travel around with it in your hand luggage. So yes, now it's all solved. I also bought a blush called "Peaches". It's a very nice coral colored blush, which is my favorite color for blushes anyway. The day has passed in a whim, and I forgot that it was late right now, and er, blasted music for a bit. Whoops. I'm listening to the new playlist Kiwi sent me, and it's so chill. It's actually like one of the hundreds of playlists on 8tracks when I search for the tags: "sleeping", "chill", "calm", etc. You know what? I was scrolling through Liam Payne's ex's Twitter, and she wrote about Union J, and saying it was her second favorite boyband. My heart melted a bit then. And speaking of One Direction, I think it's a bit unfair how Zayn always looks so bloody dashing and broody and just really pretty. Goodness gracious, can't decide whether I'd like to see him as a model or an actor in Skins. Probably both. Anyway, I didn't go to bed until 10:00 pm last night, but it was so needed. Albeit, I did still feel a bit groggy in the morning. And the first lecture was interesting in my opinion, but that's because it was basically human geography, and I love that. And then we had another lecture that was a bit more on the boring side in my opinion. But we managed to get through it, Kiwi and I. After school I went home, finally not when it's rush time-- which I really do loathe. I mean, Sugar used to complain about the public transport a lot, but I think I've taken her role now. I'm just not good with being tired and crowded areas with bad air. Anyway, I went home to finish the birthday card to my sister. Then I went to the mall to post it, and did all the errands I was supposed to do. The only thing I've not done on my to-do-list for today, is to finish my paper. I guess I'll just do it on Friday. I've got the time, so I'm not too stressed about it. I'm actually going out tomorrow for Halloween. I've not dressed up for Halloween in years, so that will be interesting. Other than that, I've finally managed to watch the new "tard" being born into the world. Meaning the offspring belonging to Shay Carl and Colette a.k.a. the Shaytards. I did surprisingly not weep at the birth, but I did weep when I saw Sontard holding Brotard for the first time. I've just got a sweet spot for Sontard, because he is genuinely the sweetest kid ever. And then I went on to watch Kayli and Casey announce that they're pregnant. And that was a bit emotional too. And then I read a ghost fanfiction, and that was sad too. So I've been weeping a bit. (Is it really awful if I write: "and that's the story of my life" as a pun? Yeah? Okay). Have a nice night, and sleep well.

running after you is like chasing the clouds
Hello, hi! Yes, where should I start? When I got back home on Sunday, it felt like I'd been gone for a week. Not just for the weekend. I guess it's because of all the stress and the packed schedule we had everyday. It makes me anxious about my Lynx' wedding, which I think will be so stressful. I'll probably get loads of tasks, and course I'll help, but it'll still be very stressful. On Friday, after arriving and eating food, I sat down in the sofa in order to listen to the new 1D single, Story Of My Life. Volla mouthed "what are you doing?" because I was basically gaping and staring at air. I was pleasantly surprised by the song, as I really do love it. It's actually my type of music, which is a really big turn around from Best Song Ever, which is nothing like my music style. Even Monchita liked the song, which really does mean it's good. My favorite part is when Zayn sings "running after you is like chasing the clouds", because his voice is just heavenly. Like, when he sings "the clouds" it gives me shivers. The birthday celebration for David was set on Saturday, and it was a lot that had to be done. And basically, I spent two hours surrounded by children between 2 weeks old to 4 years old. I do like babies, but I'm just not so fond of loads at one time. And then, without a pause we had a celebration for the family as well, so the whole lot of Grepper's family came. And I realised that I spend more time with his family than my own relatives. I'm just really glad I genuinely like all of them. Later that evening, we decided to watch The Lone Ranger, and I must admit that I really liked it, despite almost dozing off a few times. I rarely fall asleep during a movie, but I was just so bloody tired of not having slept enough and the birthday celebration. My mum went to bed before we started the movie, and Grepper went to bed in the midst of the movie. The rest of us watched the whole thing. On Sunday, a few of the friends of my sisters came over to eat leftovers and chat with their children. I didn't realise they were coming that early, so we were basically just finished eating our breakfast before we heard the bell ring. Also, Monchita, Volla and I decided to make Lynx and Grepper a romantic breakfast in the loft. Whilst they were eating and getting ready for the day, the rest of us held the guests with company. I got to hold my sisters best friend's baby for a long while, and it was so nice holding a baby that doesn't know how to sit properly. She's nine months, and it made me really sad about how David is growing like a wildfire. Which is also why I'm mostly bitter about losing all my pictures and videos on my iPhone. I've got so many videos of David growing up, and now they're gone forever. Anyway, we also changed the diaper to the 2 week old baby, who was perhaps the most silent baby I've ever met. And I hung out with a three year old, which was nice-- someone who'll actually speak back to you in not-baby-gibberish. Anyway, after the visitors left, Lynx, Monchita and I went to the hair salon to get our hair cut. I've cut about five centimeters, because my roots were really dry. And when it comes to hair, I don't think it's wise to keep hair that's damaged. I prefer quality to quantity when it comes to hair. Besides, I'd been aching for a bit shorter hair for a while. Shortly after having a haircut, we went to the airport. And it was nice being there early for once, because when you get in a bit late, you'll never find any seating. The airplane was right on time, and the plane was actually stuffed. Only one vacant seat. When I got home, I was greeted with a package with my name on it, and I realised what it was within a few seconds. Kiwi's made me a new playlist that I've named "No Name", since she told me to name it myself. The name is actually from a song called No Name by Ryan O'Shaugnessy, which is pretty sweet. I didn't listen to it on Sunday because I was too busy screwing up my iPhone and iTunes. Fell asleep at 2:00 am, and skipped most of my lectures. But hey, for about one minute, or two, the kilo-gang was actually all gathered for the first time in a long while. Filli and I started on the paper that we've got together. We've decided to be really effective, and well, the plan was to finish our own parts for ourselves, and then meet up today and do last finishes. I was actually not procrastinating after school yesterday, but I was fixing my iTunes, and it took a lot more time than expected, which means I sat with the paper until 1:30 am. Didn't fall asleep until 2:00 am. I considered skipping the lectures today as well, but I figured I should attend it because I skipped yesterdays. So yes, I had four hours sleep, and it's barely enough. After my lectures I also had to meet up with my study group and teacher. And seriously, it was so boring. And that's not a good mix with tiredness. After that meeting, and after fixing the paper with Filli, I went to a cafe with Sugar, Kiwi and Kiwi's friend. Although I felt like dozing off 50% of the time, I had a really great time just chatting. We were there about two hours (more or less) before we decided to carry on. Kiwi insisted on a photo shoot in the park, and it's not like I'm ever going to say no to that. We went down Karl Johans Gate to look for a scarf for Sugar. Our search was sadly not successful, but I got my make-up done in a MAC cosmetics stand. It was really nice. I always enjoy people doing either my hair or my make-up. It's really relaxing and therapeutic. I didn't leave empty handed, and if I actually can get my arse to do it, I'll take pictures of what I bought soon. So yes, that's what I've been doing the past few days. I've had so little time to actually blog about it, I've not even had time to write a birthday card to Volla who turns 28 today! She'll just have to receive her card a few days late. I'm not sure if I can write it today either. That's how tired I am. I'm supposed to edit the paper as well, but I think I actually have to get an early night today. I'm just really really knackered, and I'm surprised I've survived today this well.
