Exams are crap? Think about this guy!

I have now acquired the huge sum of 5 studypoints at this point, but have 40 to go this term. My first exam therefore seemed to be like spitting in the sea and I am now a little nerves again about things I should have done and things I need to do.

Fortunately I was surfing the web the other day and found a most delightful picture that sure as h%$& cheered me up! So quit complaining about your job and your exams! Even though this time of year is filled with sunny days and lots of anxiety and examination nerves, I will never feel as crap as this guy must feel. Even if I would fail all my exams I will never have to do what he does. In this post I have not taken into consideration the saying that "things are as bad as you perceive them to be" (or something in that direction.. Never been good with sayings.. Now mottos, that´s a whole other story - "Everything will turn out fine, one way or another")

pictures from finland

I forgot to take pictures most of the time I was in Helsinki because it so much fun seing people again that I.. well forgot! I only realised this when I loaded the pictures I took onto my Mac. I found a heap of pictures from my aunts birthday party.. Besides, most of my interesting pics are on my mobile brick and I don´t know how to download them since I don´t have bluetooth.. So here are some pictures I remebered to take the second time I went out with Dominik and Sanna for a bucket of margarita..

A really cute picture of Sanna!

Exhausted from all the activities after yet another succesful Easter holiday

The Easter Bunny didn´t kidnap us!

...So we are back in Norway again after a wonderful week in Helsinki! Thank you so much all of you! It was great seing you Taru, Dominik, Sanna, Marie Sophie, Olga, Aurelien, Saori (even if it was short!). It was fantasticfabolous to see you in person and revive some good memories - you all made me feel like I never left! Pics will be posted later I think.. We have to leave now to catch the night bus back to Bergen.. Ciao!

"fagfest"

wowiii, we had a good time! Got a picture (from Britt) of the incredibly charming three Camilla, Britt and me just before we left my beautiful "apartment" to go to a party for the faculty´s infomedia students! Not a great party mentality amongst these people I must admit, but the few of us who showed up (and stayed) had a blast! Anyway, it felt good getting together with these girls again. We don´t get to see eachother that often since we´ve been scattered all over the university lately.. We also had the rest of the "gang" with us in our minds: Maren, Iselin and the soon to become a gorgeous mother - Anette!

Right now, I just answered an e-mail from Berg and he too wanted to visit Helsinki during Easter - wouldn´t that be fantastic?! I am so looking forward to meeting everyone, I can´t help but smile when I think about it! And someone promised to throw a party with all the good old guys that know how to stay up all night! See you reeeeaaaal soon!

its a beautiful sunday to paint on!

Today I spent the whole day in my room. The last stuff from my old apartment has been moved out and all my things are finally gathered together on one location! After reorganising my 14 squaremeters to fit with the stuff that used to fill up 65 squaremeters I started painting. I´ve been wanting to get started on it again, but I never seem to find that calm moment where I have the time AND the inspiration to paint something that doesn´t just waste a lot of good paper or canvas. I was quite pleased with what I achieved and got an inner peace and quiet that I´ve lacked the last couple of weeks.

Of course, it might also have something to do with my three-days-in-a-row-partying.. I never do that, I can usually barely stand the next day after one night of partying, so I don´t know what got into me. It probably did some good so I´m not gonna spend energie on dwelling on it.

I´ve also sent some nice e-mails to people I haven´t spoken to in a long time AND I did some school stuff. I feel like I haven´t done anything though. My to-do list before leaving for Helsinki this Easter is so long I think I would have had to postpone the whole holiday to make it through. I couldn´t be bothered with being to stressed right now. Did I just say that? It will just last the day I think and then tomorrow I won´t even remember having said that due to my stressful life. haha.. as if not everyone else are panicking as much as me because of stress? Why do we tend to think that we need to uphold an everyday speed at 200km/h? Is it because everyone else does it? And barely makes an effort, it seems like? Or because we feel we have to - that everything feels like a chore? Not to disappoint people? Anyone have any more suggestions?

I guess I often think that I let people around me down if I skip to do something. Somehow that they expect things from me. I know that it is only my own expectations and that they are really really high, but it is a nasty habit that is hard to let go of..

Anyhow, the painting seems soothing to thoughts like these. I better paint more often.

another try- christmas party!

Once again I may have some time to mange my blog and post some pictures of the wonderful people that I work with! This was a fantastic party and we danced till six or seven in the morning! Hurray for Twisted! :0)
