My laptop charger caught fire yesterday, during geography. It wasn't as dramatic as it sounds, I pulled the plug out before it turned into a bonfire. The teacher didn't even notice what was happening. The only person the scene really made an impression on was me, and I'm now holding my breath every time I plug anything into the wall. And I'm ( Read more... )

I can't remember the last time I looked this hideous. My left knee is bruised, I have scratches all over my arms (and one on my chin), my skin is pretty burned and my lips are all cracked up. Despite all this, I loved  the Base Camp. So much to do, things I've never done before. Lots of people to meet, and they were all extremely nice. I'd go as ( Read more... )

I don't think I've ever been good at seeing things coming. For two and a half years I've known perfectly well that I would go on the big school trip this week. Yet here I am, slightly shocked that I'm actually leaving tomorrow. I'll be gone for nine days, and visiting three countries. Germany, Poland, and the Czech Republic. I haven't been to any ( Read more... )

Wow, long time  forever, no see.

We had our first Norwegian end-of-term test today. We could choose if we wanted to take bokmål or nynorsk first, and I chose bokmål, which I oddly enough haven't started regretting yet. Okay, so the day got off to a bit of a rocky start. My math teacher walked into the room and decleared that she would be the one ( Read more... )

We're supposed to have a HPB Gryffindor group chat right now. With emphasis on we're supposed to. We're a total of two people online. It's official - the lions are dying. Or at least sleeping in.

We played this basketball match today, and lost. No surprise. How awful we played was a bit of a surprise, though. Honestly, I almost expected out coach ( Read more... )

Ah, our IT guy is coming in twenty minutes, bringing my Dad's new computer. Which means I'll get the old one, and finally have Internet in my room again. Not to mention a more powerful computer and a bigger screen. After two years of being incredibly patient I'll now be able to run Photoshop and other applications at the same time without ( Read more... )

Yay, World Cup! Earlier I've been able to convince myself that I don't care much about it, but now that would be silly. In short ( Read more... )

Meh, I wish I had the patience to write some long and narrative entry (hey, I learned a new word: narrator/narrating/narrative. And now it's popping up everywhere). I bring a few short bullets though:

( Quick little notes )

I won't be going to school tomorrow, yay ( Read more... )

Erle = Gone Soon
Home + Erle = Sunday

Got it? ;)
