I'm just posting some photos, cause I'm too lazy to blog today xD
There's been a lot of important tests lately, so.. *yawn*.. :p
I think they would be very happy if you did xD
Benedicte bought a motorcycle last week ^^
An Aprilia rs 125 ccm :)
A magic dude who visited our church this Sunday.. I think he called himself Timian or something
Oh, I just LOVE that story! ^^
I thought; hm.. I think I'm going to watch it!
So I did. But that wasn't enough, so I watched the second movie as well xD
What a lovely love story ^^
The Tramp ^^ He's sooooo cool! ^^
-----------------------
Bella Notte ^^
English version:
Or Norwegian version ^^:
Hi again! ^^
But my brother and sister became 15 today ^^ (Yes, they're twins xD)
We celebrated their birthday two days ago, though :P
One of my favourite movies are "Independence Day" by Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich.
I just finished watching it right now, and like I do in every movie/book, whatever, that make an impression on me, I cry. I just can't stop cry. But that's because I'm so freakin' emotional! The tiniest thing affects my heart and I start to cry..
But I think it's kind of nice in a good way. It means I have feelings! :D
Alright, enough of my emotions, and back to the point: the movie.
What I think is the best part of the movie is the President's speech before they attack the spacecraft. It gives me goosebumps.. I think it's really good ^^
---------------------------------
---------------------------------
Summary:
On July 2nd, communications systems worldwide are sent into chaos by a strange atmospheric interference. It is soon learned by the military that a number of enormous objects are on a collision course with Earth. At first thought to be meteors, they are later revealed to be gigantic spacecraft, piloted by a mysterious alien species. After attempts to communicate with the aliens go nowhere, David Levinson, an ex-scientist turned cable technician, discovers that the aliens are going to attack major points around the globe in less than a day. On July 3rd, the aliens all but obliterate New York, Los Angeles, and Washington. The survivors set out in convoys towards Area 51, a strange government testing ground where it is rumored the military has a captured alien spacecraft of their own. The survivors devise a plan to fight back against the enslaving aliens, and July 4th becomes the day humanity will fight for its freedom. July 4th is their Independence Day...

OK, so here's some of the things I've been doing since last time:
March 31
School.. Math.. =_=
Dinner at Grandma's; Fish sticks ^^
-----------------------------------------------
April 1
Went to the culture house were we met some cool people..
..and Askim Janitsjar (Janissary) had a Broadway-concert
Aleksander played a really good solo =D
------------------------------------------------
April 3
We went to Sarpsborg to get Benedicte a dress.
Streets of London has a lot of dresses
After some shopping we ate at McDonald's.
Well.. The rest of my family ate there, though. I prefer Chinese food ;p
------------------------------------------------
April 4
Our church had a sixties-night and it was just AWESOME! =D
This is Sunniva BTW. She got elected as the best dressed girl of the night ^^
Benedicte and I were swing partners, and we won the contest! :O
Isn't she cute? ^^
Lise looks like a real 60's-girl :p
------------------------------------------------
April 5
As a tradition in our church we have "Ester breakfast" every year on Palm Sunday.
Delicious food.. *drool*
Of course we sang too; we're a Pentecostal Church for crying out loud!
My egg cup ^^
I want to show you how my schooldays are like!
Here's my subjects with teachers:
Today I want to tell about my math teacher and my English teacher:
-----------------------------------
Lena
Lena is my English teacher. She loves to tease my math teacher Svend (below) and after every
lesson (when she knows that we will have math afterwards) she doesn't dry off the blackboard, cause she know that this goes on his nerves.
Svend
Svend is my Math teacher. He don't like my English teacher, and before every math lesson he goes out to get a sponge so he can dry off the blackboard, while he mutters something like "stupid English teacher"...
I'm going to Spanish soon. I'm really looking forward to see Åsbjørg (my Spanish teacher) again!
... Yeah, right! xD
We have this kind of project going on, so I'm NOT looking forward to go to class! Oral presentation; in SPANISH?! I'm not THAT good! T_T
But because I love Åsbjørg so much I'm going to dedicate this post to her. To honor her hard work. I'm also going to add a little drawing of her, so you can see what she looks like.
But I have to leave Spanish around 1.15 pm, 'cause I'm going to take a vaccine again.. :S
Wish me luck! ^^
Here in Norway we have this problem when it comes to buy food; which butter to choose. Cause we have so many different types of butter. It's really annoying T_T
Today I want to write about my beautiful and fantastic motorbike Norbert.
He's a Honda NSR 125 ccm, 1998 model, and I love him sooooo much ^^
His full name is Norbert Sven Rolf, but I just call him Norbert, cause the full name is too long, and I'm too lazy.. =p
I drove him for the first time this year on Thursday ^^ Yeeeeey!!! :D :D Perfect ^^
I don't have time to write more.. (Norwegian to do.. T_T) But you can see a photograph of my little beauty here:
----------------
For a few days now I've had this Beach Boys-song in my head.. It wont go away! xD
The Beach Boys - Little Honda
Now I'm pretending to do my Geography.. But I want to write in my blog instead ^^ We're supposed to do some research on earthquakes and cyclones, but that's just boring, so.. :p
Later today I'm taking Grandma to Graff! I haven't had a chance to give her a birthday present yet (her birthday was in the beginning of February..) and she don't want anything expensive, so I'm going to buy her a good cup of coffee or whatever she wants :D She agreed that this was a good idea, cause then we have time to talk too ^^
I want to read a good book! Something I haven't read! Suggestions anyone? I'm reading American history, but I want to read something else too.. I have to try to not just read the Twilight-saga.. :p Or "You Can Never Go Back Again" which is an extremely good book ^^ It's still my favorite, when it comes to single books. The Twilight-saga is four books.. Five if you count Midnight Sun in.. So I think it's not the same thing.. Though I love them both very much ^^
What's your favorite book? Do you have a favorite book?? I want to know! :D
See ya later, alligator! ^^
I know I've been sloppy lately with my blogging, but now I'm going to let you know short what I've been doing lately..
First of all; it's been a lot of application stuff. Since I'm going on an exchange year it's a lot I have to do. Taking vaccines for instance. (The Hepatitis B vaccine is one of the most terrible vaccines I've ever taken.. :S)
Benedicte and I began horseback riding two weeks ago and now we're doing it every Monday. I didn't remember how fun it was! :D
Besides that we have school and homework and duties at home. I've also been reading and thinking a lot.
March 14 my Grandpa became 70 years old, and we held a little party for him. We ate pizza from Go'biten and a little too much cake :p
Today we're going to the horses again! I'm really looking forward to it! ^>^
--------
Here's Grandpa when we woke him up in the middle of the night on his birthday and him his present from mom and dad. He didn't believe that they gave him a trip to Croatia.. :p
I don't know why I'm using my computer right now, cause my head is aching and this definitely don't help.. But I have to use it English, so I guess I can write in my blog now since it's been a while :p
Tomorrow Grandpa turns 70, so we're going to have a party to celebrate him, though he doesn't want to.. (Like he has a choice xD). And we've bought many nice gifts! Benedicte and I spent about 950 NOK on our present. Mom and dad some thousands I guess.. The neighbours used a lot too! 10 000 or so put together! :O
Tonight we're going to brake into their house and decorate while they sleep ^>^ And when we're finished (if we don't make to much noise and wake them up) we're going to surprise them with songs and cake :D
What would you do if you knew someone was going to kill you? Would you ran away, sit and wait or would you fight back? If you were out shopping with your friends and a man came and pointed a gun against one of your friends head and said he was going to kill him/her, would you step forward and say: "Take me instead"?
I couldn't sleep last night, so I had plenty of time to think, and this was one of the things I thought about. Do I have the guts to do such a thing? If it should occur in the future? (I hope it doesn't) Or would I just back out like a coward in the end? I say now that I would take the place instead of my friend, but it's easy to say it now, when all my friends are safe. Am I strong enough to do it if it happens?
Wow, this is kind of scary. I'm deep O.o I think I need to sleep more..
OK, now I feel like a nerd... You probably know by now that I'm more than less obsessed with the Twilight-saga. Well, now I've read the saga trough but I can't get enough of it, I still want more! So I thought I as well could read it over again xD
Twilight, the first book, I have read three times or so already, so I almost know it by heart by now xp
But I have to read something else too, so I'm reading about all the American Presidents from George Washington to Barack Obama and American history. I AM a nerd.. >.<
I really enjoy the English lessons nowadays, cause we learn about American politics ^^ It's very interesting!
To get to another subject: I simply HATE snow! Last week I was so happy cause the highways were almost clean from snow, but this morning we had to dig our way to the car. Why?! Why does it snow now? It's March! It's SPRING for crying out loud! T_T
Spring is supposed to be the best season of the year! The snow is gone (or should be gone.. =_='), the birds are coming back, the flowers once again show their beauty, the sound of motorcycles on the road, the air is clean, all the signs of Spring. And, of course; it's a time to fall in love.
In Bambi the movie, it's called "Kvitredilla" in Norwegian. I don't get the English word, but the owl says it in the clip below :p
Oh! I want to see Bambi! ^^ It's one of my favorite children movies :p
Challenge! :)
1. Find a song you like on YouTube.
2. Post the song on your blog.
3. Find the lyrics and post the third line.
4. Why do you like the song?
The third line from the lyrics:
"And save these questions for another day"
(Wow, interesting line.. xD)
I really like this song, it's so beautiful. I don't know exactly why I like the song so much, but it touched my heart. I think the piano in the background is a big part of the reason. So amazingly beautiful!
Yeah, this is my favorite song at the moment. For some reason I couldn't get the original song here, but you can find it here on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKZ34LnzQDM&NR=1
Wow, I'm in a good mood today! First day at school after a week with holiday. It wasn't so bad to get up early, but I'm feeling little sleepy though.. But it's my own fault! I told myself to go to sleep, but then I found out I wanted to watch Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire.. So I was awake the whole night and watched something I don't even like.. =_o
But I'm in a good mood! Now we're going to have Science, so can't write more! See ya! :p
Yey yey yey yey yeeeeey!!!!!! I got accepted! Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah! I'm so happy! ^^ Everything feels much easier now! ^^ In August I'm going to the States! :D

On Friday Amanda, Emmelin and I went to Ski to go bowling after school. I got several strikes! :D After that it was shopping time. I bought a new pair of jeans, a t-shirt and a new bag. All of them was at sale. We also ate at Peppes. (I have a feeling that I've been eating a lot at Peppes lately..) We ate a large pizza all by ourselves, so we had to be hungry! :p
(Pictures coming)
On Saturday my grandmother had birthday, so we were in Mysen and ate more pizza and cakes :D
From Saturday to Sunday I was awake the whole night through to read. I finished New Moon after 2-3 days :p About 600 pages with English ^^
Monday I helped mum out at work and wrote a lot on my short story. I have a feeling that it's going to be a long story.. I've really put my soul in this story, so I hope it turns out good :)
I'm so happy!!! :D:D:D:D Yesterday I bought New Moon, the second book in the Twilight saga ^^ They had the book in Mysen. I've already at page 200 :p I just love it! Though it's a little sad. I have cried while reading a book before, but not as much as I did in this book. I can't wait to read more!
Benedicte plays violin on Thursday,but yesterday she was ill, so I took her lesson. It was actually pretty fun! So we made a deal; I'm going to take every lesson Benedicte can't make. Vladimir, her teacher, said I got talent. (Me, proud? Nooo :p)
Mum and I also ate at Venezia, a restaurant in Mysen. Margarita pizza, just like in Bulgaria :p
And before we went home we paid Kiwi a visit and bought cakes, some muffins and many chocolates :D
I have a little problem.. I'm writing a short story, but I can't find names to the characters. Suggestions anyone? I need both girl names and boy names. When it comes to things like this I'm hopeless.. It's OK to write the story, that's easy! (Actually, I can't stop when I've first started..)
I'm nervous today.. Math test and eye check :S
I can't describe how much I dislike money. Why do we need money? Which asshole was stupid enough to invent "money"? Everything would be better if we didn't have money. Nowadays people with more money have more power. Everyone want to be rich, get a big house, fancy car and be better than the others. Why? What's so great about it?
I don't want much money. I just want enough money to survive, get a little house and just be happy. Does that make me weird?
What would it be like to have unlimited with money? Would you trust people like before? How can you know if they want to be a friend or just want your money? And if you are a superstar, can you trust people? I don't want to be a superstar. Cause I can't imagine a life with no privacy. I don't want to go on the street being afraid that someone would recognize you. I want to be for myself. Besides, I think I would be cruel if I had unlimited with money. No, I really hate money..
This has been an interesting weekend. Friday I ditched Gym, cause it was so boring.. So I went to Mysen to visit my Grandparents before I went to Filadelfia, to the pajamas party.
The pajamas party started 9 pm. We had a little meeting before we ate. (Jane made the food by the way). I didn't like the food very much, but I wasn't that hungry either, so..
We had a really good time with many funny games and nice music. But we didn't get too much sleep.. Sunniva and I didn't sleep at all. It was actually the first time Sunniva was awake over 24 hours without sleep, so she was a bit proud ^^
Here's some photos:
One of the most disgusting feelings ever known is restlessness. You feel you have nothing to do. You want to do something, but you don't know what. I feel that way right now. It's such a disgusting feeling! I don't want to be here at school. I want to take a long walk in the forest, just sit down and lean against a tree and think. Take some photos and read a good book. And what I want the most is Spring.
I want Spring to come now! Spring is the best season of all; it smells good, beautiful flowers wakes up after a long and cold winter and everyone seems so happy when it's Spring, everything feels so easy, like you can climb every mountain in the world, it feels like you can do everything! The snow is gone and you're feeling free.
But NO! Here it's just comes more snow! Problems and anxiety accumulates and I just want to quit everything! Why do everything come at once? Can't it smooth out a little bit? Right now I simply hate snow, the cold and everything. I need a vacation. Only three weeks till winter vacation..
Now I'm going to stop crying about my own problems and do something about it. And I'm not going to write more about it.
Over to something more cosy: From Friday to Saturday the youths are going to have a pajamas party in our community. I think it will be great. Twilight is also coming to Askim ;D I want to see! :D
---------------
I just wanted to add a clip of the ending of Gegege no Kitaro ^^ I really liked this movie. (Little weird though xD) Here's the Ghost dance.. Wentz Eiji ^^,
It's been a while now, since I wrote in my blog last time. Many things have happen; Finished the Twilight book, interview with EF, shopping with Madeleine, Fila, Jumper, etc..
One of my favourite quotes from the book is when Bella get sick in Biology, while taking blood samples. Edward helps her to the nurses room and want her to go home, but Bella don't want to skip the rest of the day. Then Edward says: "It's healthy to ditch class now and then". And I think he's right! I know it's not good to say, but I actually feels a little better when I once in a while ditch class. (But don't think I do it too often! I've only done it a few times xD)
EF Education began in 1965 as a small Swedish company. Their mission: to make it possible for people around the world to communicate with one another across borders, breaking down barriers of language, culture and geography. Now, more than 40 years later, EF Education First is the international leader in study abroad, student exchange and international internship programs worldwide.
I was going to an interview because I want to go a High School Year in the United States.

Pernille:

- A pair of high-heels. :D :D
- 2 small tubes of body lotion.
- A sexy turquoise dress you use when you go to sleep.
- Make-up bag :D
I spend one more night at Madeleines place, cause I was going to come with her to Filadelfia Sunday. We also watched some more movies. One Missed Call 2, Shōnen wa Tori ni Natta & Gegege no Kitaro.
Sunday was Filadelfia-time. The band (that Madeleine's leading) had to practice before the meeting. I got interviewed by Erlend. I didn't know about it, so I was a bit nervous, since I hadn't prepared anything. But I think it went very well :)
When I got home I watched Jumper. Benedicte had downloaded it. So many people have said I should see it, and now I finally did. It was OK, I want to see it again some time :D
Here's the official Jumper trailer:
Some times I'm asking myself; why don't things come when you want them, but comes when you don't want them? (Weird phrase.. O.o)
I prayed so much for snow on Christmas Eve, but did it come? NO! But NOW, when I want to start drive Norbert (my bike) again, it's falling so much snow that we hardly comes out of the house! WHY?!
I only like snow in December. Now I just want Spring to come..
From Saturday to Sunday I spend the night at Amandas place. First we went to Askim Torget. There I bought a new mascara, one I'd never tried before. I loved it! One I definitely will continue with! :D
I also bought Twilight, the book. It's totally different from the movie: lines from the book is switched to other places in the movie! Things that appears in the movie, isn't in the book at all. And like almost every book made a film of; much in the book isn't in the movie.
The book is in English btw..
Amanda and I watched Sex and the City.. A lot xD I the end it became very boring. We also discovered many sick Norwegian games.. O.o And we played "Mujaffas BMW" on 123-spill.no xD
When mom drove us to school today, my brother was asking over and over again which day it was. He made fun of me because I didn't remember it was Friday today.. (Been a little confusing week). Then he started to ask; "Which day comes after Friday?" I said Saturday. "And after Saturday?" Sunday? "After Sunday?" I was getting little tired, so I just answered; "Jonathan, it's Monday, you know that. When a week ends a new one starts, and the same days repeat over and over again, week after week."
This phrase got me thinking. Everyday is just the same. Just once in a while it changes.. I don't want it to be like that! Sometimes I just want to drop out of school, travel around and just take each day as it comes.
Same with our school days. Every day is the same. We wake up early, go to school, take lessons and goes home again. What's so excited with that? Learn this and learn that. I'm so sick of it! It's the same, boring thing every day!
But English is a funny subject. Right now we learn about poetry. We're sitting in groups and making poems. Two poems each group to be more correct. All these poems are going to be a book.
Here's one of the poems my group made:
Our school day
Our teachers are very crazy
But the students are just lazy
Every time a teacher says
Now you learn this special phrase
But this teacher we don’t fear
Cause the students don’t care
On Saturday Martine and I were in Ski and watched Twilight. Awesome movie! Right after the movie was finished I wanted to see it again!
Before we went to the cinema, we walked around in Ski Storsenter. There I found a camera. Finally I found one. Originally the price was 1.724, I got it for 999!
We took train both ways. Our train back was going 20.26. The movie was finished 20.32... So we had to take the next train, 22.26. But the 20.26 train was 20 minutes late, so we made it in time! :D Thank You!
Here's a summary of the Twilight movie:
"Bella Swan has always been a little bit different. Never one to run with the crowd, Bella never cared about fitting in with the trendy, plastic girls at her Phoenix, Arizona high school. When her mother remarried and Bella chooses to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she didn't expect much of anything to change. But things do change when she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen. For Edward is nothing like any boy she's ever met. He's nothing like anyone she's ever met, period. He's intelligent and witty, and he seems to see straight into her soul. In no time at all, they are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox romance - unorthodox because Edward really isn't like the other boys. He can run faster than a mountain lion. He can stop a moving car with his bare hands. Oh, and he hasn't aged since 1918. Like all vampires, he's immortal. That's right - vampire. But he doesn't have fangs - that's just in the movies. And he doesn't drink human blood, though Edward and his family are unique among vampires in that lifestyle choice. To Edward, Bella is that thing he has waited 90 years for - a soul mate. But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy. Somehow or other, they will have to manage their unmanageable love. But when unexpected visitors come to town and realize that there is a human among them Edward must fight to save Bella? A modern, visual, and visceral Romeo and Juliet story of the ultimate forbidden love affair - between vampire and mortal."

Some days ago the weather was so nice, so I grabbed a camera and went out for a little walk. And while I was walking around, I understood what a beautiful country I live in. Especially now in the winter.
