we should say goodbye, but we carry on while everyone’s gone

My Tumblr is being stupid, and everything is a little bit stupid now. It's Thursday, and I'm waiting for it to be Saturday so I can eat chocolate whilst watching cross country skiing, and then the start of the world championship in women's handball 2013. I'm a bit worried that I'll spend time watching it during my exam. And if I know myself right, I probably will. I watched a match of handball yesterday evening that I'd taped from the other week. And I was originally alternating between watching a vlog and the telly. But in the end I had to shut down my computer, because I have to focus 100% on the handball match, or else I'll just miss everything. It was really exciting, though I already knew Norway would win. The reason why it was exciting to me, is because there have been a lot of changes on the national team. For example, there is a new goal keeper. And from what I saw, she looked really good. I'm very impressed. Although it might just have been a good day for her. And then there's always the players I like, and others I don't like as much. Meaning people that are very unpredictable in their performance. On another note, I woke up and had a proper breakfast today. Albeit, alone, seeing as everyone was off to work or school. It was nice having the house for myself, though it was only a few hours. I also caught up on all the vlogs I'd missed, whilst wrapping Christmas presents! I love wrapping presents. It's one of my favourite parts of Christmas. And that's about what I've been doing today. I've not read anything in preparation for my exam, but to be fair-- I didn't even prepare for the last years' one. So I'm not too worried. I don't think I'm going to move outside of this house for the whole weekend because of the windy weather. Ooooh, yes, it's snowed! I just saw it on the way to the toilet after finishing reading a fan fiction (speaking of, I feel like I've been reading less lately, and that's a really good thing) and it looks so nice. I was tempted to go out and make a snow man, but the wind put me off. Anyway, I'm currently listening to the Take Me Home album again, because I genuinely love it. I might snuggle up to watch a Christmas movie tonight and possibly try to get some reading done. Tomorrow is a new day and there will be new opportunities. But for now I'm going to grab myself a cuppa and something to snack on. Whops, I just got an update on the Christmas décor ala my belieber friend and Darren. From what I saw in the snaps, they've got fairy lights on their balcony? And a lit Christmas "ball" in their living room. That's the update for today folks. Be sure to tune in to next update on "Christmas decor ala my belieber friend and Darren" next .. week? 

you're making me sick, love

The other day we were sat across each other, 
and I wanted to say to the younger you: 
“do you understand what 
I meant about 
growing
 apart?”

when you're still waiting for the snow to fall, doesn't really feel like Christmas at all

Hiyaaaa. I've just been watching an episode of "Tangerudbakken", and it's hard not to smile. Always makes me really happy. I had an early and very unnecessary meeting with my study group and teacher today. Also, Faye told me today that she sort of wishes we were in the other group, the one with the people we had "praksis" with. And I agree. But you ought to accept things like they are, and I don't have anything against our own study group. They're just a tad bit silent, is all. Anyway, I was sat in the cafeteria for two hours, reading curriculum for the exam. I was planning on sitting there for longer, but when a group of girls sat down beside me and started discussing about "Fotballfruen", I'd had it. I just-- I'm so tired of that discussion, so if I can, I avoid it. I've finished reading the chapter I started yesterday, though it's more like eight chapters in one. Christ, it's so heavy to read. But that means that the sense of accomplishment is even higher. At 5:00 pm I went to the mall with Monchita, and I got a few Christmas presents. I didn't come home before 8:00 pm, I think. And I've just been watching a few of the Vlogmases' I've missed. The thing is, all the Christmas calendars on telly is shit this year. At least it is to me. So essentially, Vlogmas is like my version of a Christmas calendar. Albeit, I seem to always be behind on watching everything. I'm going to continue watch the ones I've missed now. And also, I'm crossing my fingers for Volla who has her exam tomorrow. I forget sometimes that my older siblings also have worries in life. Ha, isn't that weird? Like, when I think of my family I almost only think of their roles as my mum, as my dad, as my brother, as my sisters. I don't necessarily think of their roles as students, as friends, etc. Also, slightly bad news-- Lumba is coming home the 18th of December. That's in the middle of my exam. And that kind of sucks. Oh well. Life goes on and all. Also, I'm crossing my fingers for snow tomorrow! Because as the Coldplay song says "when you're still waiting for the snow to fall, doesn't really feel like Christmas at all". And that's despite the fact that I've been listening to Christmas music all day.

all I want is nothing more, to hear you knocking on my door

Kodaline was cancelled yesterday, and it near damn broke my heart. Well, slight exaggeration. The thing is; watching Volcano Choir was awesome, don't take me wrong. But it was a rather spontaneous choice to see them live. However, Kodaline has been in my mind for months. I found out about them in Spring, then they came with their debut album in Summer, and then we found out that they were coming to Norway on tour. And the time Kiwi and I were sleeping over at Marble's a few weeks ago (month? I've no idea), we were listening to Kodaline late at night and chatting about the concert. We had just managed to get Marble to join us (I'm not pro group pressure, though. We had asked her earlier, but it wasn't until then she decided that she wanted to come along) and it seemed like it would be such a nice evening. I guess, maybe it was too perfect. If only you had seen our faces when we realised that there would be no concert yesterday. To be honest, there were a few moments where I could probably have started crying. But the thing is that prior to all of this, I had a really nice day. Like, I was very excited and giddy (not during the bloody boring lectures, though). And it was just really nice, to be honest. And when we were sat at the restaurant, and we'd just realised that the concert was indeed cancelled, I couldn't find it in myself to be that mad, really. Sure, I'm really really sad that this might have been the only opportunity to see them live. Or the fact that it might have been the only opportunity to listen to them perform the songs from the current album. Nevertheless, I had such a great night yesterday. Even if we couldn't find one cinema that played a movie after 6:45 pm. Or if the concert was cancelled. I got to see Oslo Cathedral for the first time, went through the Christmas street for the first time this year, bought roasted almonds, got ballet lessons by Kiwi, walked through the most quiet reading room for law students, and a lot more. I don't know, but I really appreciate these kind of things. We went back to Kiwi's and drank hot chocolate with cream (me not so much cream. Kiwi and Marble, however -- a lot of cream), played a few games (nearly pissed myself laughing), watched a couple of episodes of New Girl. And then we went to bed. I woke up at 6:30 am in panic, because we'd fallen asleep after the alarm went at 6:00 am. I'm usually really good about waking up and all, but I think we were all a bit tired from the day before. When walking to school, I fell on my knee. And in further inspection, I'm a bit red there, though that's about everything. Strangely, this accident made me happy, because it shows that my body hasn't completely grown old yet, and I can fall without having to get bruises and a hurt knee. We had four hours with lectures about pathology. It was basically just to refresh our memories, but it was good nevertheless. Albeit, I'm always a bit doubting when the lecturers try to be cool. It's like with my old favourite teacher. The first classes I had with him, I pretty much hated him. Thought he tried too hard-- and from times to times, he did. And I had the same feeling with our lecturer today. It was, however, refreshing with someone who wasn't from the stone age (soz, but they tend to be rather old). After our lectures, we met up with my belieber friend in a group room. Kiwi left us after an hour or so? It's always really nice to catch up with my amigos. My belieber friend and I was sat there until 4:50 pm? And then we walked together to the train station, where "I live" (no one's going to understand this). When we parted our ways, I was about to put on some music, when I realised I had a missed call from Ale. I told her I'd give her a ring after I got home because I don't really enjoy speaking on the phone when everyone can hear. So, we spoke for a bit, and it was nice. I keep saying nice, but I just-- my friends are the source for a lot of my happiness. And it doesn't mean that they have to do things in order to make me happy. I think it's more about just having them around me, and their presence. They're like a constant reminder of why I should be thankful in life. Sorry, this sounds really soppy. Onto another subject-- Kiwi suspects I might have chocked her in sleep last night because she woke up with a sore throat. Not as in a sore throat because of a cold, but just sore. I told her it could be a possibility, and referenced to that horror movie where this person kills people in their sleep. I can't remember what the name of the movie is. Also, I told my belieber friend that we could just use the "uhuh honey" phrase from that Kanye song as an answer for everything. Just imagine: "Hey you want to come with me to the library?" "Uhuh honey". I think it works brilliant. One of the greatest things about December, is that it's the season for Vlogmas. Which basically means that almost all the people I watch on Youtube are vlogging (filming their everyday life) each day in December. And it's become a must to watch these, as they provides a bit of the Christmas spirit. The only thing is that in total, it takes me an hour and a half or two hours to watch all of them. And I'm already behind a day. Anyway, I've come to realise that I'm a shit advise-giver. I'll listen to people talk, and I'm to be able to point out important things and all, but I'm really shit at giving advices. And still, I get asked about these kind of things all the time, and I'm like ermmm. Just now my mum came into my room asking me for advise of which dress she should wear to her "julebord". And to each dress I'm like "oh, that's nice". The one advise I can give is to not bring me along when you're about to choose a wedding dress. Right, this is far too long. Sleep well, that's what I'm going to do xx.

a love like this won't last forever


Helloooo. I'm so excited for everything right now, it's a bit ridiculous. I sort of hate it when it happens, because I can't seem to manage to sort out my emotions. And then I become overexcited, and my brain doesn't know what to do, and more often than not, I end up shedding tears. Oh dear. (One Direction is at the premiere of some movie tonight, and I thought it was only Harry and Liam that were going to the premiere because there were only pictures of the two. But it appears that Louis and Niall is also there. I've yet to see any pictures of Zayn. Also, Harry was at a hen-party last night with Grimmy. And who doesn't love a bit of Harry and Grimmy together? They're the bestest. And they share clothes, and bah. I ship everyone, is the thing). But, yes, today I've caught up with Oyster, whom I've not really seen in ages. But that's the thing; ever since "high school" it's gone a month or more before I see her, and it's still nice. She's currently living with her grandma in order to read for her exam, and that's where I went today. I always find it nice when we just chat about things for hours. Got a lift home from Oyster's dad, because he was picking up Mars who was also there. And I got to see the Christmas decorations that have been done on the outside of my local mall, and I must say it looks really nice. Now we only have to get some snow, and it'll be perfect. Both Darren and my belieber friend sent me snapchats today with updates on their Christmas decorations. As far as I know, they've got a Christmas light in one of the windows. And their advent lights are on the coffee table (if I saw correctly). And no, I'm probably not going to write an update about the progress of their Christmas decoration each day. I did decorate a bit of our house today too, but I think we need some new decorations for our window this year. For some reason the new windows almost feels bigger, so now our old decorations feel a bit too small. I've yet to decorate my own bedroom, but I've got a few ideas. But the thing is that I'm going to sleep over at Kiwi's tomorrow, so I'm not going to be able to decorate tomorrow. Ha, just asked Kiwi if I had a cloth at hers, because I usually bring one whenever I'm sleeping over at people's. And then Marble wrote that I had one at her's too, in which Kiwi answered that I have one at everyone's. Not quite everyone, but yes, very true. I actually have to go through my paper one last time before I hand in in, then pack some stuff. Feels like I'm always packing. Oh well, tomorrow will be amazing. Cannot wait to see Kodaline! And just be with my friends. It's hard to be unhappy when you have all these great people around you, is the thing. Also, it's December 1st. Twenty-three days to go, and it's Christmas Eve!
