you may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
These are probably my highlights from the ending ceremony of the Olympic Games 2012. Plus the last medal ceremony. It is always such joy to watch other people being so happy. It had me grinning the possibly biggest smile I can manage. I had heard a few rumors about One Direction performing at the ending ceremony. However, I didn't actually believe it was true. So I was a bit taken aback when I heard the familiar tune and saw the boys. But I'm not saying I wasn't pleased. Oh no, probably the opposite. What is it with teenage hysteria and new boy bands and artists? It's the hair. Yes, most definitely. I loved Zayn and Niall's hair tonight. Ah, the quiffs and the blonde highlights. A highlight in itself. And then the other highlight was the handball ladies. One of my favorite sport to watch. Well actually, I think it's become a bit too much for me lately. I just get too stressed, and it's so nerve wrecking to watch. In fact I've skipped watching the first halves throughout the last games I've seen. Now I'm just waiting for the winter Olympics. Cross-country skiing to be exact. Right now I wish I was in London in order to celebrate the ending of the Olympic games. I cannot imagine the atmosphere. It must be amazing. Wait. Another highlight right now. It's fucking Ed Sheeran for christ sake! Okay, now I'm grinning with the widest smile ever. I look like an idiot. Eejit. Wait, Spice Girls too? For fucks sake. Now I really want to be there!
is this the place we used to love?
This is the cover that is stuck on my mind lately. It is completely bewitching, and I am sure it has made it's way to my all-time favorites. That has perhaps something to do with choice of song as well. But mostly because of the lovely harmonies. I cannot help myself belt out the song when listening to it. Ah, it is pure beauty. I just wish I could purchase the cover somewhere.

we are the champions
Nice title on my blogpost or what? I thought it was appropriate considering we indeed did win, plus for some reason this song is always played during handball matches. At least almost always. Tongue-twister, eh? I somehow didn't believe we would win tonight. Probably because I think the Norwegian handball team has been a bit off throughout the Olympic games this year. However, they took me by surprise and won at the end. Well not really by surprise. After the first half, I kind of knew that it would end in favor to the Norwegian team. Well technically I didn't know, but I had a good feeling. The ending was the best part. Not only because of the win, but because of how the Montenegrin team reacted. They started clapping and cheering. And I've never seen a team that happy to have won a silver medal after being scarcely close to a gold medal. But it really did manage to put a smile on my face. Their happiness really rubbed off on everyone. But it wasn't only the Montenegrin team. It was all the medal winners. Everyone was in euphoria. And the tears never seemed to stop. Pure happiness. Congratulations to the Norwegian handball team. And the Montenegrin .. and the Spanish.

I've fallen for your eyes, but they don't know me yet
Ah, back to school. Well, not really until Tuesday, but I've already started grumbling about it, which basically means I've mentally started school already. I got the sticky notes and the pencils from a store called Søstrene Grene - a store I've fallen in love with. My pencil case is not really a pencil case, but a see through bag of sorts. It's from Muji, and I love it. When I was in London we decided to pop into some of the stores next to our hotel, and Muji was one of them. I did fall in love with that store too. Now I just need to find it here in Norway too. Today I said my goodbyes to my beloved friend I mentioned yesterday. I've known her for three years now, and it's so odd how some people come passing through your life and just becomes an important person. I might write something depressing about this later on. On a lighter note, I did make her start blogging. This way I can be updated on everything. Another important thing that happened today - I got myself a new bed. For some reason my parents didn't like me sleeping on the floor, though I kind of love it. So my dad woke me up and told me we were buying me a new bed. And I was like "uhm, okay". Wow. This is turning into one of those conversations - "and he was like ooooo, I and I was like nooo, and then they were like yeaaaah". Anyways, I now have a brand new bed.
my heart's against your chest, your lips pressed to my neck
A week ago this CD was finally mine. And I love it. I love when I have a favorite song on a CD, but then I get tired, and I get new favorites all by the same artist. My first favorite was probably The A Team, then it was Small Bump, then Drunk, then Give Me Love, then Wake Me Up. Now it's currently Kiss Me. Ed Sheeran. You are a genius. And yes, that's my drawing of a mouth. I hate drawing mouths. They are completely impossible. But anyways, my favorite lyrics from Kiss Me is the title of this blogpost. "My heart's against your chest. Your lips pressed to my neck".
