Until we meet again.

I suddenly got a message saying I'm out of GB here on my blog, so I can't upload any more photos..... SUDDENLY! Pisses me off, considering there hasn't been any mentioning of this earlier. I need to pay to get more space, and according to blogger.com I can only get 1GB anyway! Don't get it. Does anyone know something? Ok, so until we meet again, dear blog. I'll get to the bottom of this...

Vikingsummer.

Good evening. 

I'm busy these days, with studies and all. Started examen facultatum and examen philosophicum this autumn, plus doing mathematics R1. Working on my text in ex.fac. now, final hand-in next Friday. Then I've got two school-exams at uni., and one in maths before Christmas. Yey! I'm trying to work atleast one day a week aswell, but that's proving to be quite difficult... Would've been so much easier without the maths ;)

I thought I'd share some photos from this years vikinglife and summer-holidays! We went to Bjørgvin (NO) in the beginning of June, then there was Bukkøy (NO), Borre (NO) and Moesgård (DK). The movie is from Moesgård. Im good at hiding from the cameras, but you can see me walk by right before 4:00min into the video. WE WON! 350 warriors at once is much.

Moesgård and the rest of the holidays will come rrright up in a new post ;)

What Kind of Book Reader are You?

Hello! 

It's definitely been too long this time. As I don't really feel like writing much today (and haven't in a while), I just wanted to post a link to this article I came upon, posted by Anne Rice on her facebook-page. 


I think I saw myself in these two:

Delayed Onset Reader #1. You are without a doubt a book lover, and when you walk into a bookstore or any place books are available, you can't help yourself, you buy one or many. When you get home you put them aside, often reverently, as if they were art, displaying them on a bookshelf or propping them up on your bedside table, pages ready to meet your eyes as soon as you have the moment. But you're very, very busy, and days, weeks, or months may go by before you actually crack open one of these books. It's not for lack of trying! When you finally do, you will be overjoyed by all the learning and emotional depth and humor and writing quality that exists in this book that's been sitting within reach all along, and you will be amazed that you waited so long to ever open it. Suggested delayed onset #1 suggestions: The Imperfectionists, by Tom Rachman; The Princess Bride, by William Goldman; Lolita by Nabokov; Anne of Green Gables, by L.M. Montgomery

The Bookophile. More than reading, you just love books. Old ones, the way they smell, the crinkles and yellowing of the pages; new ones, the way they smell, too, the crispness, running your hands over a stack of them at the bookstore. You like books rescued from the street as much as signed first editions; you like drugstore paperbacks, you like hardcover new releases, you like it all. You just like books. To you, they are an object of beauty, and you would never, ever hurt them in any way. Suggested bookophile reads: Anything you can get your hands on. God, that's gorgeous, isn't it? 

At the moment, I'm reading George R.R Martin's A Feast for Crows (A Song of Ice and Fire #4), and How To Be A Woman by Caitlin Moran.
