Coneclution:

Ok... So I have some very random coneclutions to share with the world today:)

For one: These are some of the ''material'' things I miss the most about the US, in a random order (kind of anyway):

-Dutch Bros/Starbucks
-Sun (it's been raining for the last month, at least!
-Victoria's Secret (and why do we not have those here??)
-Beeing able to say ''I have a pool at my house'' just to impress people:)
-Speaking english every day (and beeing able to speak a language no one around me understands... Just for fun)
-Having my batroom ALL to myself
-Not having to go to school AND work (though, payday is the best day of the month!)
-The BIG closet
-Inexpensive shopping (at least that's what I thought)

My other coneclution is even less important, but I know you wanna know anyway:)
One whole full schoolday with ''the basic econ theories'' is very exhausting, and even more boring. The weekend could not have felt any better when it finally arrived!

Tomorrow I am going to watch soccergames. Some of my friends are playing and many of the others are gonna be there to watch, I hope anyway. Mari, Mari and myself are gonna be there, at least, despite the cold and the rain. We decided to bring blankets, hot chocolate and umbrellas and settle down there for most of the day. It'll be fun! Just like good old times when we were kids:)

Here's also a pic from my old soccerdays. That was the best team we ever had, and we actually won every game for one and a half season. Sweet!

Senior year all over again!

Yeah... That's right! In June I graduated, but now, once again, I'm back in High School. It sound worse than it is though. I already knew I had another year of school left, but it kind of sucks to know that my friends from GP are all going of to college.


For those of you that don't know this: We have 13 years of school over here, and that's the reason I am doing my senior year for the second time. The system is simply just different.



This is my class from the first year of HS. Lovley, I know:P

This year I am studying language and socialstudies. The clases I'm taking are Consumer Economics 2, Social and Community studies and English, and ofcourse the clases that are mandatory for me: History, Norwegian, Religion and PE.
It's gonna be a tough year, and it's gonna take A LOT of effort to get through it, but I'm detemined to work my but of this last year.
This is it. this is what it all comes down to. This is what really matters!

I'm an aunt... Sort of:)

First of all:
Congratulations to Jodi who gave birth to a daughter just a few days ago! And of course, congratulations to Paul, the boys and the rest of the family as well:) And Nathan; You're gonna have to step up your game now! Grandma's attention is not gonna be all yours anymore, my friend!

Second of all:
I know... I have not been the best of bloggers lately, but as soon as I get back to school (which, by the way, is way to soon) this will hopefully approve. Even thoug it's summer time (oh, those summer nights:)), there's always something that shoul have been done yesterday.
Work has been taking up alot of my time lately, and add family-time and friends-time and a tiny dash of me-time; and there's not a whole lot of blogging time left over!

And last but not least:
I love having fruit growing in my garden! We have an apple tree, a plum tree, a cherry tree and a grape bush. The cherries are all done for the summer, but the plums and the apples are just starting to get good. The gapes still has a few weeks to go though:)
Just a small piece of useless (but fun) information! Sometimes we need a little useless (but fun) info just to give the daily life a little boost!:)
Now, that's useful!
