South America??

Why do put this map on my blog?? I usually just put them out when i go places, so does that mean i have some new plans?? YES!!!! I`M GOING TO SOUTH AMERICA!!!! dates are set and tickets are paid for:) :) I`m so HAAAAAAAAAAPPY!!!!!!!!
My friend Magnhild, arrives in october and leaves againg in May, next year. In december, after exams, i fly down to spend a month with her:)
The plan is to meet up un Chile and travel through Argentina, Uruguay and end up in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. Me? exited? Yeah babe!!! If you have any great ideas on things i just "have to do", hit me!

Since we`re talking really expensive tickets, i`ve now got a new job. I`m a pizzadriver at "Dolly dimple`s:) hehe, you call, i deliver!!!

"first price" :)

For all norwegian students, "first price" is a famous brand:) It`s the cheapest you can get, and they have everything:) So yes, my shelves are loaded with them!

This is my room, at least some of it. I just took ot now, since some people won`t stop asking for some news:)
I started school last week, it was great! Lots of nice people, good teachers and important subjects. From this week, i`m on my own. It`s mostly an internet course, so this computer will be my best friend this year:) Oh, and i`m studying "worldview and communication" studies (Kommunikasjon og Livssyn på Gimlekollen) in Kristiansand. I really like this town, and the people i live with are awsome, so this is gonna be a great year!

a horrible morning

while fast a sleep this morning, my dad comes into the room. i know something`s wrong! yeah, i`m late for work. He says, `"kristin, it`s 6.45!" that`s when i usually park the car outside the factory, so yeah, i`m in trouble. i get up in a hurry, run through the house, picking up stuff i might need but i`m too tired to know. i jump in the car and drive like the wind, yes, i was speeding.... anyway, i calm down cause i know it`s not that big a deal. it`s just that i hate being late.
30 min after being in a coma, i pulled up on the parking lot. hmm, weird, where are all the cars????
i check the time, it`s 6.15......

i still don`t know if my dad said the wrong thing, or i just thought he did. anyway, it`s now almost 9, and i`m still not awake.

but, IT`S MY LAST DAY AT WORK!!!! I`ve brought cake to celebrate:) Tomorrow i move in with torunn and renate in kristiansand, yay! so, even though it`s a tough morning, it`s ok, it`s the last one!

daydreamer..

Didn`t have to sweep the floor, so i`m still here:)
Hopefully, or it`s almost surten, i`m going to turkey! about three weeks from now! Finally a vacation!!!!! So, sitting here, i close my eyes and float away. Sand between my toes, waves rolling in close by, ice cold coke by my side and everything bathed in sun. Am i lookin gforward to it, YEAH!!!!

another day in the office...

Three days into this job, and i`m finally getting used to the relaxed atmosphere here. This is not the place where i have to run around, get dirty, sweatty and stressed. Here i can chill out a bit more, as long as i do the tasks needed.I get to do things like this, blogging:)

If you`re wondering, no, i haven`t hidden anything in my bottom drawer:)

This is the last week for most of the summer workers, which is sad. Who am i to lunch with every day? Well, i guess if i don`t have anyone to talk to, i`ll get a much needed chance to read some more before my course. I`ve read one of the two books we have to read before we start, one more to go. Shouldn`t be a problem really.

Oh, i chatted with my host father last night. Now i`m even more exited about the London trip in september, it`s gonna be fab!!

...i should do something. People know i don`t really have an excuse to write this much, but i do look important though:) What can i do? Sweep the floor? yeah, i`ll go that! c ya!

This is Fiona (a host "sister"), Rada (in my team) and me:) This picture was taken on our team day at Thorpe park, right after one of the water slides!
It was on the 19th of June, it kinda feels like yesterday:) it`s facinating how quick the weeks has gone by!
This week all of the new and old volunteers gathered at Åpta, just 30 min drive from my home town. We came to end our year as volunteers, and to give advice to the youths taking over for us.I`ll tell you more about that later.

I just wanted to upload this picture to tell Fiona and Rada that; i miss u!!!!!
