I really don't like being friends only.

I'm not elitist or even a particularly private person - I'm just worried about RL people coming across this, as most of this journal contains an embarrassing level of fangirl.

If you're OK with this, and would like to read the majority of my posts here, leave a comment and I'll add you. Don't be shy! Really

You should do a post like this too - I feel there's so much I don't know about you AND I AM INTERESTED. YES. I REALLY AM. TELL ME ABOUT JUU!

We lived in Norway for 18 months. Me and my sister were both very small when this happened (I was 2 and a half , and my grasp of english was slightly hazy,my sister was 5/6) so we picked up the language very quickly. We were practically native after 6 months - I have videos of me babbling away with my friends, and I had to relearn english when I came home, ironicly. It's the other way around now.

When we came back, we all missed norway incredibly - me and my sister the most. But my parents insisted we continued to speak norwegian at home, and we went to norwegian lessons at the norwegian church in London every saturday - but they started to forget it, me and my sister stopped talking, We were always speaking english at school and stuff, and we eventually had to stop the norwegian lessons because of time and money, so I've forgotten. Huge amounts forgotten.

Even in just the last couple of years, I've lost most of my accent (which I hate because I used to have a flawless accent and pronounciation) and now I am struggling to remember it all again. That's the reason why I understand better than I speak - when I hear people say something, it jogs my memory, and remember, but when I have to pull it from scratch my mind goes blank.

We lived in Ås, and my dad worked at the Agricultural University. :)

Well, this is extremely outdated (among other things I still live with Taske, but we're not a couple anymore), but it's a start. If I get any "free time" during my summer holiday, I'll see what I can do.

Hee, I've been to Ås many times, I've even visited the school. Aaaw.

So will you be visiting us again?
