Yeey!!! I got a hostfamiliy today! ^^, At a place called Poteau in Oklahoma =D
My High School starts at August 13, which means I don't have much time. Because of that I have only a week to prepare everything! And I don't even know the exact departure date! =O It's August 5 or 6. And before that I have to pay the embassy a visit. But I can't go there without an appointment. I was supposed to come there the 10th, but since I'm leaving 5th or 6th I have to make a new one.. =_="
Anyways, I'm going to live with an old couple and I'm going to have a "sister". She's also an excange student, but from Switzerland (or how it is spelled..)
I have a lot to do!
BTW, I'm going to create a new "special" blog about my year in Oklahoma (it feels soooo good to finally be able to say where I'm going ^^)
Aaaaaand! I'm going to (maybe) buy my own laptop tomorrow! ^^ Yeeeeey!!!! =D =D =D
Maybe next time I'll blog from America, from MY OWN laptop ^^ =p
See ya! :p
Long time since last time I blogged! :O
But I haven't had a computer to use, and I've been ill, so.. No excuses.. =_=''
Anyway, this weekend I'm going to a motorcycle.. thing? xD It's like a camp.. with motorcycles xD
Going to write about it when I get home ;p

Norbert is sooo cute! He's packed and ready ^^ Have to show a picture of him next time =p
Bought him some new bags (or what I should call them) earlier today. They're supposed to be used on bicycles, but since Norbert is small they fit him perfectly ^^,
Benedicte and daddy are riding Benedicte's bike, so they don't have any space left to their sleepingbags, so Norbert and I have to take one extra, and mom one too. That's why Norbert looks so funny xD
Now I'm only writing crap xD
=_=''
...
That's all for now!
(Have to go, cause I'm using my daddy's computer. And if he finds me here he's going to be mad, because I'm supposed to help with cleaning the kitchen and stuff before we go tomorrow.. xD)
Role play
Today is our last "normal" day at school, since my class is finish on Monday ^^
That means this was our last last English lesson, and Lena wanted to do something special:
She divided us into groups, and gave each group a situation. Then we had 5 minutes to set up a role play before we had to present it to the rest of the class.
She wanted to see how we managed to improvise.. :p
My group was Jannicke, June, EJ and me. I was supposed to be an exchange student named Lars, and the others were my super weird host family. The father (June) was tired of the city life and wanted to move and live in the mountain with no phones, no Internet and no modern technology. The mother (EJ) agreed with everything the father said and adored him, and "she" overdid it extremely. Their daughter Jane (Jannicke) was anti-social and pretended I wasn't there.
It was fun xD
The new Ronan Keatings
I think some of the boys in my class are a little fond of boy bands.. xD
They thought it was fun to improvise, so they figured they wanted to do a song.
Here they are; Joakim, Morten, Christoffer og Nils Arne ;p
(Sorry about the poor quality..=_=")
Last night, after I checked on Fighter I went for a little walk. And; wow, I'm really going to miss my home! Not just my family and pets and motorcycle, but the whole place too!
I actually began to cry when I thought about leaving our farm, the beautiful sunset we can watch over Glomma and the fresh air. Little things I've learned to love ^^
You know, I feel kind of like Becky in the Mustang Mountain Series. When she first came to Mustang Mountain Ranch she hated it and was sure she would never feel at home there in the deserted place with no neighbors in miles range.
But when she had to be away from the ranch one year, she missed it badly. And I think I'm going to be that way too in the beginning. Maybe even the whole year, I don't know :p
First I hated the rural place, now I love it ^^
If I end up in a city or a town in USA it's going to be weird and a little exciting :p I don't remember how it is to live in a town, I'm too used to live on a farm now ;p
Haha! Suddenly my home has its own post xp
Many things have happened since last time; some good things, some tragic things..
The good things first:
---------------
Good things
---------------
Pentecostal weekend:
--------
We were at a camp with our church at a very nice place called Ytterbøl ^^
Emeli:
--------
From Wednesday to Thursday I spend the night at Emeli's place.
First she came with me to our church after school on Wednesday ^^
Emeli also has drivers licence, but her bike doesn't go faster than 50 km/h..
I think it made 60 once, when we drove downhill.
THAT was a little challenge, but it wasn't so bad, I thought it would be harder :p
We used an old, deserted road, so we drove most by ourselves : )
- Summer
--------
The summer is finally here! ^^,
Just one week left at school before the summer vacation;
One week left in 1SDT (my class ;p)
Looking forward to a nice summer with my beloved Norbert :p (xD)
-----------------
Bad things
-------------------
Mozart
--------
Mozart, my cat, died on Wednesday..
He got run over by the neighbors hay cutter and died momentary, with no pain
R.I.P Mozart, we miss you
Fighter
--------
Fighter, my horse got colic this weekend
He just wanted to lay down, and we couldn't get him up.
When he finally stood up, I had to walk with him until the veterinary came, cause he wanted to lay down over and over again.
If I had let him he could have got volvulus.
The veterinary came and gave him some medicine intravenous.
It was a little scary.. Fighter began to bleed.. :S
But he's much better now.
I still have to check on him all the time, and he can't join the others at the pasture, but there's no danger anymore, and that's good.
The first night I didn't get any sleep:
First I was with him from the morning (when I found him) to 8 pm
After a little replacement, from 8 pm to 9 pm, I was back in business
About midnight I went inside, but 3 am I had to check on him again.
I got some sleep, and then went out 7 am and stayed with him until the rest of my family woke up.
To summarize my weekend in one word:
Hectic!
Laptop
--------
I can only keep my laptop one more week, then I have to return it to school.. -.-'
I don't have a computer my own, so now I have to borrow one.. =_=''
I want my own laptop! T_T
Late
I woke up this morning with the feeling that something wasn't right.. It took me 30 seconds to realise that I had slept too long and that I was going to be late for school.
I got 20 minutes late to school.. =_='
But we were still watching that movie in Social Studies, nothing very important
English
Still watching Brave heart.
I really like that movie ^^
Mel Gibson fits that role very well, he's a good actor
And I like their accent ^^
It's so cool ;p
Short Day
We have a short day at school today
We're just going to have Math, and then we're finished
After school I'm going to take a walk, watch a clip of twilight, a clip of Pride & Prejudice and then pack my bag, since we're going to this.. camp.. this weekend, with our church ^^
My day today:
Spanish
We watched a movie in Spanish, and it was really scary.. :S
It was a horror movie called El orfanato, or The Orphanage in English.
Un cuento de amor. Una historia de terror - A tale of love. A story of horror
Plot summary:
The former orphan Laura raises her adopted son Simón with her husband Carlos in an old house and former orphanage where she was raised. Simón is HIV positive and tells Laura that he has five invisible friends, and she believes they are fruit of his imagination. Laura decides to reopen an orphanage for handicapped children in the location and during the opening party, Simón calls her to show the little cabin of his friend Tomás. The busy Laura does not gives much attention to her son; then she sees a mysterious masked boy and Simón vanishes. Laura feels the presence of other persons in the house and months later, the desperate Laura invites a team of parapsychologists to try to unravel the mystery.

Social Studies
We're watching a movie here too;
A Norwegian one called "Kunsten å tenke negativt"
I guess it's something like "The ability of thinking negative" in English.. :p
(If you want to know the plot, you can google it or something)
Information meeting with EF
After school mom and I are going to Moss.
It's an information meeting about my year in the States ^^
The big question is; are we going to find the hotel where it's held?
Mom's sense of locality are about the same as mine, maybe even worse.. :S
So, there's a big possibility that we might end up in a totally different place, and that can be a
problem!
But I'm sure we're going to work it out! ^^
That's all for today I think! :p
See ya! ;D
