Christmas Holiday?

I want it to be Christmas holiday now!  Is getting a bit homesick by now. No, actually, that’s a lie; I’ve been homesick for quite a while.

BUT, I should be writing of all the fun I have had so far during my stay in England.

Thinking Like A Writer soon became my favourite course. You just have to love a class where we are required to buy a notebook and give it a name and personality! *jumps up and down in happiness* And writing! Lots of writing! *squeals*

Life Writing 1 is my second favourite; more writing! In this class it isn’t fiction though. We write about things that have actually happened, memories and such. But it is very fun and we learn many good writing exercises!

And Anette visited me on October! That was fun! We went to central London, and generally had a lot of fun! Oceana is an interesting place. We stayed a long time in the “cheesy room”, because they played music we grew up with in there. Spice Girls, Backstreet Boys. You name it, they had it!

I have also received many compliments on my English! *preens* It feeds my ego! Two people have even told me my English is “awesome”! *grins widely* My life just gets better and better. Today one of the girls in my Life Writing seminar told me she thought I was brave for travelling all the way from Norway (alone) to study. I don’t feel very brave, but I will take it as the compliment it is anyway.

It’s so many Norwegians here! I even have another girl from Trøndelag in some of my classes! What are the odds for that?! *is amazed* She has even lived in the very tiny place that I am from, if only for a short amount of time, long time ago, but still! *is incredulous*

Hmmm… What more to say? So much have happened; I really don’t know what more to mention….

Wants to have Christmas break!! Home sweet home! Miss the family, and the dog! Must not forget the dog! Look at my header, people. That’s Jeger’s eyes! Aren’t he adorable?

Okay, going to bed now. Don’t think this is going to get more intelligent than this at this time. Good night, sleep tight, don’t let the bugs bite! *waves*

England!

Here I am! In London, at Roehampton University! This place is awesome! I live at Whitelands College, which is a bit far from Digby Stuart, where my classes are going to be. There’s supposed to be a bus driving between the two colleges though, I just haven’t seen it yet.

I have met new people, I have met my teachers (or tutors as the so nicely call them here), I have travelled with a double decker and I have seen the most known sites in London! In other words; these have been some busy days!

My first class is tomorrow, Monday; and it’s between 15:00 and 18:00. The class is called “Thinking Like A Writer”. Doesn’t it sound like fun?!

I really can’t press everything I would like to say into this post, so I will post more later on. For now, goodbye!

Exams. Gah!

Hello again everyone!

I’m done with my three written exams! Yay! I survived!! I felt so sorry for my friend, who had French! I’m so glad that I didn’t get that last year! I haven’t had French in a year and I’m still feeling the freedom! The last exam is Friday next week. Meaning *dramatic drumroll* Friday the 13th…! We are so dead. I’m going to die, and then what will I do with my place at Roehampton???

I met a Norwegian girl at yougofurther.com who is also going to Roe. That’s fun *big grin* We’re even taking the same course!!

Oooooooh… Grades today! We got our grades in English and Norwegian. Norwegian went better than English, which isn’t that fun, seeing as I’m going away to London. But hey; I’m going away to London anyway!! *jumps up and down* I still haven’t gotten over that.

 

Roehampton University

YAAAYYYYY!!!!! I GOT ACCEPTED AT ROEHAMPTON!

Yay me!!

I feel like jumping around, squeeling like a fangirl in fangirl-mode! I have done that today acctually.. And I feel like calling all my friends and tell the the wonderfull news!

Okay… Maybe I should start with the beginning? I applied for Roehampton University for next year. I have been waiting for my answer for ages (at least it feels that way). Today I got my acceptance letter!!! YAY again!!

SOOOOO *drumrolls* I’ll be attending Roehampton University and I’ll be taking Creative Writing and Journalism and News Media!!!!! I can get my bachelor-grade and become a journalist!!!!!!!!! This is my dream coming true, people!!

And why Roehampton University is written in bold? Because I feel like it damnit!!

WOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!!! *doing the happy-dance*

Time for ‘russ’!!

Being ‘russ’ is a Norwegian tradition. The russ is the students who graduate from Upper Secondary School. We have our own clothes we wear (red pants, white coat and a red cap) and we have so much fun! We do the weirdest things and nobody question it! This is our last chance to be children.

We do all this weird things to gather ‘knots’ in the string on our hats. (Knots being several different tokens from all the different things we do). I sat under the desk during an entire school class. Then I could tie a rubber in my string. I also bathed in the ocean before April. That was COLD!! Not to be recomended!

Tomorrow I think we are going to sing to the teachers and play James Bond the entire day (sneak against walls and stuff). This is so fun!!

And of course we party. We do that a lot. There’s a lot of drinking and partying in this time.

Social education

I’m not sure what to call this subject in English. But I’ll call it social education. Doesn’t really matter because it’s booooriiiinng!!!! GAH!

Give the little men boxes to stand on so they can reach the apples!!! That’s what our teacher says anyways… Yes, that’s exactly what he said. I’m not even kidding. He’s like that. Always saying thing like that. Once, in Older History he sang to us.. In French, even.

Next lesson is Religion… I can’t say that I’m looking forward to that… I mean; it’s so boring! I hate Wednesdays… Not only do I have to get up at 6 in the morning, but I also has lots of bad subjects. Lucky we have English, or this day would be a total waste.

The Norwegian Sea Vulture

Have you ever heard about the Norwegian Sea Vulture? I suppose you haven’t, because me and Anette found out only resently that it existed.

The Norwegian Sea Vulture are a part of the bird mafia. They have plans to take over the world! On the top is the eagle, he’s the Boss. But behind him is the owl. Don’t tell anyone that I told you that. The Norwegian Sea Vulture is the handy birds. They do the dirty work. Then the sparrows and the other small birds are messengers. They carry messages and dope.

This is somethig me and Anette found out on our way to Trondheim. We were sitting on the boat discussing this. I think maybe the poor woman sitting behind us was a little scared..

History again

History lesson again *groans* Why, oh why?! The world hates me. Last lesson on Thursday, and I have History!!! There should be laws against it. When I rule the world, it’s going to be a law! “Thou shalt not have History in the End of a Day”. Doesn’t that sound nice? And History-less?

Well, our teacher desided to be nice today, and gave us a sheet of paper with questions on. Why this is nice? Because he doesn’t supervise us to see if we actually do the work *grins* Which is why I’m here instead of deeply buried in…um…I think we’re working with NATO, and EU. But don’t quote me on that, because I’m not sure.

English test earlier today. American politics *shudders* I don’t even understand the Norwegian politics! How am I supposed to understand the American?!! *sighs deeply* I think I’ll survive it, but that’s all. There would be no happy-dance. Except if I get an exeptional good grade on it. Then I’ll do the happy-dance. But I won’t get an exeptional good grade on it. So there won’t be a happy-dance.

Twilight

This is the best series ever! A romantic, fantastic, romantic, brilliant, romantic, fun and did I mention romantic novel??!! The novel is written by the fantastic Stephanie Meyer!! All girls should read this book. It’s the Girl 101!!

I want an Edward!!!!!!

There are three books at the moment, but at August 2nd the next book, Breaking Dawn, is released!! Rejoice, people!!

If you find Edward Cullen, please let me know, will you?

The main character is named Bella Swan. She moves to Forks to live with her dad. This is where she meets the mysterioius and beautiful Edward Cullen. In fact, the whole family (every one of the four siblings and both parents) are equally mystical and beautiful.

I love you, Edward Cullen!!!!!

Yes, I’m slightly obsessed. What are you going to do about it?

New header

Look!! I updated my header!

This is my doggie, Jeger, which is norwegian for Hunter! He’s adorable, isn’t he?

Right now, he’s standing in my bed looking out the window. I think he sees ghosts.
