Materialist, moi??
It's really stupid of me to wait so long between updates, because things I want to write about keep building up in my mind, and then when I log in to write an entry, I forget everything I wanted to write.
But oh well. I'm going to write about some of the superficial things that are right at the top of my head.
So my bf took his gadgetry to a new level. He ordered Nintendo Wii on Wednesday, and struck quite a bit of luck as he got 500 kroner off on it. It arrived today (along with my new cuter-than-cute Hello Kitty dogtag necklace! Iloveitsomuch!!), and it's AWESOME. I was trying to play mildly amused and not very interested, that lasted for about five seconds. I rule at tennis. According to the bf, Wii will give us great exercise because you have to move so much while playing. Oh well, anything to get out of the gym, I guess! But anywho, big ups to Nintendo. And we can even keep the PS2 plugged in as the two consoles are on different channels. YEAH! Gadgets!!!!!
There's also been a lot of movie watching lately. I can't not buy DVDs when there are sales going on, because I always end up finding some old movie that I always wanted to watch but never got around to. Just today I stumbled across a 4-movies-for-200-kroner sale, and I came home with Wolf Creek, The Exorcism of Emily Rose, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and a Norwegian movie called Den brysomme mannen, which is one I really wanted to see while it was showing at the theatres (come to think of it, it might still be showing a few places, but oh well). We're in gadget and electronics heaven right now. Raaaaaaaaa! My mother and I went to see The Queen at Vika the other day - brilliant! We loved it. I cried almost all the way through. Helen Mirren deserves all those wonderful reviews. We also had dinner at a terrific Italian restaurant called Barolo. I had the chicken lasagne and a fantastic red wine, plus the brownie con gelato because I'm a greedy-peter.
To get past my material self for one brief moment; the bf's leg is out of the cast now, and those screw thingies will be removed in mid March. He is quite bummed about this as he thought they would be out by the end of Feb. Boo. I think he has forgotten his disappointment for a while though, and the reason is Wii and of course Mii!!!
Have a good weekend.
