freedom

Currently i'm somewhere in Rogaland working as a PA (personal assistent). Yesterday, after reading for hours, i went for a walk. It was amazing!! The wind was really strong, no rain, i was all alone and had such a fantastic, calming and funny time! It was a feeling of freedom that just blew me away!


I didn't really have the shoes for it though, haha:)


After trying to avoid the nice traces left by the cows, i headed towards a top. Not a big one, cause it's quite flat here, but a tiny hill maybe. Standing there in the wind, the sun came out and it was so pretty!! All i could here was the sound of the wind, and i couldn't see anyone else, awww, it was great!!




Let me add the funny part:) Walking back, swept away by freedom and joy, i was more dancing than walking. And I must admit, was kinda singing:) Then, suddenly, without any warning there was a man right behind me!!! I turned into a tomato and just couldn't stop laughing, hahaha:) He just laguhed with me and we strolled together while i was trying to secretly convince him that i was sane and hadn't lost it completely. He, on the other hand, thought it was very qute to see someone dance around looking happy, hahaha:) This will haunt me for quite some time!

wet and windy

Rain, wind through the trees and through the window next to me, even though it's closed, brrrr!! I have to admit, have to face the truth, it's autumn....

I love the summer, and the spring, but to be true i'm not fond of the autumn. What's good about autumn??
You have the easy things, like staying inside drinking hot chocolate, ligthing the fire, watch a film, wear mittens again etc. But the thing is, you can't stay inside all the time. You have to get to uni, to the gym, visit friends, buy stuff and so much more and then you have to go outside. Outsie where it's raining cats and dogs andthe wind get's colder by the day.. nope, no fan of the autumn, especially knowing it'll only get worse.. Cause winter is coming, but i won't start on that one yet, haha:)

Sorry to be sounding negative, if you know me, you also know i'm usually in good spirits:)

If you have any favourite autumn things, please share!

daily temptations

At the University we have the most amazing cafeteria. They have anything that a young and hungry, or not so hungry student would crave for. Smoothies, ice cream, salad bar, bread, fast food, dinners, cakes, cookies, loads of exiting coffees etc. It's such a TEMPTATION!!! The picture shows what I try to eat for lunch, when others are treating themselves to the one delightful dish after the other... I wish I could brag and say i pack a lunch everyday, but no.. But i am and will continue trying to do so! I packed one today, but what good is that when you leave it in the kitchen at home!
But I promise myself I'll be more strict from now on, packed lunch go! go! go!! :)

a new visit from tsiky

If you've read my blog, you know that Tsiky, a friend from Madagascar, is in the area this year:)
On Friday I had the pleasure og having him on another visit. When you're with Tsiky, it's impossible not to have good time:)
Friday evening when he came, we went to a CHRISC (Christian Sports Contact) gathering. And hilariously enough, Tsiky met someone he knew before I did. There was another guy from his's school there:) We had a nive evening!
On Saturday we, or moslty Tsiky, went shopping. There are loads of stuff that are handy to have when you're at a "folehøyskole" (school). A headlight for example:)


But I guess the best part of the day was the music shop where Tsiky could try out all the bass guitars he wanted:)
