Percées de Lumiere.

Konnichiwa

I know, theres good mixture of languages here now.  But I just discovered a new band, while downloading an album by Les Discrets [http://www.last.fm/music/Les+Discrets]. When it was done downloading, I realized it was a split with Alcest [http://www.last.fm/music/Alcest], and the first song I heard was Percées de Lumiere, which means something similar to "breaking the light". Im having a chill day, with coffee and tv. Managed to get a 12hours sleep last night, without really having planned to.. Means I woke up 1:30pm, and my head's tired from oversleeping :p Guess I needed it though. Heading to meet a friend for more coffee soon. Last night was fun, went to celebrate a friends bday. Five friends with indian food, biological wine, whisky and cake, was nice ^^ 

 


Ugh, now the volcano starts worrying me. Hahha. Gonna catch a plane to London sunday, as Ive mentioned earlier, and now that the volcano's started errupting again, im getting nervous. According to plan, Ill be back in Norway the 20th, and my exams start the 25th. So we've got 5 days to get home, if we cant fly as planned. Hope it works out. Also hope my letters will be approved of, so that I dont have to send them all a second time. Stressfull. Baahh, I dont wanna take my exams, hate that kinda shit. But yeh, we all have to. Havent really been studying since high school, so its time I do this xD

On saturday I woke up with Geimgellan sleeping on my floor, next to my bed. Cute lady got abit too drunk on friday <3 haha. We went downtown, visited the Farmers Market, then went to Outland and got free comics (hail the free comicbook-day!). Afterwards we bought coffee, and went to sit in some park. City was crowded, people everywhere. Met another friend, and I spontanously decided to go with her up Fløien. Was nice, nature's really starting to wake up. Got to take some photos aswell, ofcourse. :) Have to start walking Fløien more often, feels really good. Was tired when I got home, which also felt nice after having been sick for a while. Now Ive gotta run, gah.Will add some more photos later :)

Ok, now's later. Had tea with a friend in Vågen's backyard, was nice. Gotta gather some people there and smoke shisha soon. Just made my waffel-omelette, now got tea and second series of Robin Hood ^^ 

And here are the photos I was talking about:

 

Farmers Market

 

Torgallmenningen, just another crowded saturday.

Some cute little city-tiger.

 

Haha, Fløi-troll. Tourists love this kinda stuff xD

Au, took me several hours to upload these, hahah. Stupid connection, netcom sucks. 3:40am, still got time to sleep. BBQ tomorrow, if weather allows ^^ OH! and last night I stumbled my way into this Tivoli. Was closed, and dark. Nice. Missed my camera o.O Wondering whether to go there and drink beer some evening after the opening hours, but afraid someone will ruin something or get us arrested. Its up for concideration anyway, would be fun. 

Cheers, sleep tight.

Me, I'm Not.

Zzz..

Good morning fellow earthlings ^.^ My head's all fuzzy and everything goes in a blur today. Ended up quite spaced out last night, which I think was a good thing, cuz I got to rest my mind abit. 

I feel kinda bad for my mental disappearance though, bahh. I actually got up 8:30am today and started writing, just taking a blog-break atm, while eating my apple to the pretty music of JJ n_n

Probably gonna need a heavy amount of good strong coffee soon. And arg! Im still coughing! Really annoying. The funny thing though; my doctor called me a couple of nights ago, told me she'd gotten my tests back, and that they didnt find pneumonia, but pertussis [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pertussis], which is something babies usually get. Yey! Hahah.Was talking to this guy yesterday, mentioned why I was coughing, talking about different conditions, when he joked about my next illness being colic. I could proudly say I got rushed to the hospital cuz of colic just a couple of years ago xD If this continues, Ill be a baby again in a few years.

Yesterday I actually sow some crass-seeds. Theyve started their growth process already, and they smell nice. Adding some photos here. Reminds me of my friend Ni, came to our apartment last spring, gave us a small pot with crass in it, was nice ^^ This girl inspires me more than she knows, thaha. Sorta miss her, along with other people who doesnt live here anymore. Oh well. 

Today I have to finish my last two letters, soon done writing no.5, got no.6 to go. Upcoming exams make me nervous, glad Ive got London-plans soon, between now and then. Will be going with my mom, been long since we were there together. Have to get old memories outta my system, think this will be good for me. Looking forward to it, just hope everything will go as planned without the volcano interrupting again. n_n So good things are ahead, and my first year as an independant SINGLE lady is looking good. Hhah. Also get to keep my flat, as long as rent doesnt increase too much. Love this place, just long for a bigger stove, would be nice being able to make more than 6 crisp breads at a time. 

Considering borrowing someone else's stove, but might look a bit weird -.-

Got to borrow a nice little laptop from a buddy a couple of days ago, finally found someone who had one to spare for a while. Feels nice being able to do my school-assignments on a real keyboard :) Will hopefully help me finish in time. Have to answer my american friend's letter soon too, think she'll appreciate that. Been long now, just havent had time for it. Should ofcourse buy a small clay-troll for her or something, but Im completely broke atm (next time Chell). I'll see what I can do to make it nice anyway.

Gotta get back to writing, then grab some beers with Geimgellan tonight ^.^

Cheers.

Mind Cluster.

O_o

It's been long. My keyboard said goodbye a few days ago. Inconvenient, nothing works as it shall anymore. Even formatting didn't do the trick, which means hope is lost. At the moment being, I'm using an old usb playstation-keyboard which my friend lent me. Gonna borrow a laptop from a buddy tomorrow, got my exams coming up, drives me nuts, don't have the self-discipline it takes to finish my letters. Really bothers me, been sitting here for several hours, haven't written more than about 20 words >.< Everything else just seem more interesting. And this thinking makes me want beer. Gonna meet a friend after studying tomorrow, we'll be making sushi, which is nice. And which I've actually been making quite alot lately ^.^

Ouh, this years Bergenfest was a great success! [www.bergenfest.no] I worked three shifts in infomationstalls, also got to help some of the artists, eat tons of chocolate and drink coffee. Was nice, with nice people and a good atmosphere. Got to see Ulver, Akron/Family, Lou Reed's Metal Machine, Don McLean, Fujiya & Miyagi, The Residents, Ultravox, Femi Kuti, abit of Warsaw Village Band, and Le Tambours du Bronx. Hah.

 Sorta wondering who The Residents are, like everyone else. I helped them find their band-responsibles at the festival, wondering if I mightve talked to one from The Cryptic Corporation, since they send their little avatars when they need help, hah.

Le Tambours du Bronx

These french guys were fun to watch. Hung out in the lounge at the hotel, like all the others :)

Even though I only "worked" as a volunteer three seperate days, I had to call my doctor this morning to prolong my medical certificate o.O Not fun, but coughing havent stopped yet. Feel kinda guilty I havent just been sitting still on my bed all this time, trying to get well. But how is a person supposed to cope with that, eh? Im not used to being sick, & Ive got a small flat which I cant stay in for a long period of time, cuz it makes me feel like a total bum. Also signed up for Bergenfest a long time ago, and I didnt really have to do much work there. Quite nervous my doctor or my boss saw me in the newspaper cuz of volunteer-stuff too; might give the wrong impression. Hope my coughing will stop soon though, without more medication x_X

Ah, also got to see Mick Rock's exhibition at Galleri Garage![http://www.mickrock.com/] (Got free wine) ^.^  He started saying hi to me after a while, I was helping his exhibition by handing out flyers and stuff, think he found that funny. He really seemed like a down-to-earth guy. He shot pictures of people like Bob Marley, David Bowie, Iggy Pop, Tori Amos, Syd Barrett and many others, including the great movie The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Took this photo at the exhibition. Was the "Rock'N'Roll Diaries". Man himself was there too.

 Now for something completely different;
Im starting to get really stressed out cuz of the vikingfestivals. Looking forward to them ofcourse, or it. Dont know whether Ill be able to go to Borre this year either, but it would be really cool. Im in need of a new dress, which my mom's got the materials for in her house. Just need to buy a pattern and send it to her, so she'll know about what to do. She's good at sewing. I really wanted to do it myself though, but I clearly dont have time for that -.- Also need a couple of other things, like soles on my old shoes, wool for my weave, and a woolendress. Aaaand a cape. Also got materials for that at her place, where the sewingmachine is also hiding.

Everyone who's got interest in our old norse culture and vikings should definitely try to show up at the vikingfestival at Bukkøy, Karmøy. [http://vikingfestivalen.no/] :)
