The March Issue<span style="font-family: arial;">Yes, I haven't been posting stuff in here since forever ago. . . It's been hell around here, I've had way too much to do! The good news is that in August I'm moving to London! Can't wait! I'm going to live there for three months whilst writing an exam, easy peasy, good thing I can work during the summer to prepare my wallet for the shopping madness that's gonna go down.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">To get some sort of soft "start" at this blogging stuff again I've decided to put together a "top 10 list" of things I'm in love with at the moment. It's in a mixed order, so no "winners or losers" here ;)</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;">1. Rankin</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Yes I admit, I am a Rankin girl. . . He fascinates me, and I love his raw take on nudity.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">"I do think there are a lot of crap nude images out there that are not particularly erotic, evocative or attractive, so maybe that's why people find them boring or distasteful. I think that nudes have the power to be really emotive, and perhaps our ambivalence towards nudity is more of a question of the quality of the nude imagery that pervades." - Rankin</span><br /><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bloggfiler.no/martevs.blogg.no/images/464100-8-1269343676212.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 459px; height: 600px;" src="http://bloggfiler.no/martevs.blogg.no/images/464100-8-1269343676212.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;">2. Camilla Grey</span><span style="font-family: arial;"><span><br />Ok, there's a lot of people out there doing fashion illustrations at the moment, but I do have to admit - I've got my eye on Camilla Grey at the moment. I have especially fallen in love with her God Save Alexander McQueen picture, check it out!</span></span><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br /></span></span><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bloggfiler.no/martevs.blogg.no/images/464100-8-1269343915226.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 600px; height: 424px;" src="http://bloggfiler.no/martevs.blogg.no/images/464100-8-1269343915226.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;">3.

Alice in Wonderla</span></span></span><span style="font-weight: bold;">nd</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">There has been mixed opinions about Tim Burtons Alice in Wonderland - but I simply adore it! The brilliant use of colors, the amazing costumes (this is what would have become if Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen made a fashion baby), and the dream of a gorgeous place, Wonderland. "A ticket to Wonderland, pretty please!" </span><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br /></span></span></span><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://antikewl.com/daily/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/alice_in_wonderland_cheshire_cat.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 581px; height: 297px;" src="http://antikewl.com/daily/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/alice_in_wonderland_cheshire_cat.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;">6. Alexander McQueen - RTW Fall 2010<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Here it goes again - my undying love for McQueens design is still alive and breathing. This collection only contain 16 pieces which where aprox 80% finished when he died.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">"What McQueen was preparing had a poetic, medieval beauty that dealt with religious iconography while recapturing memories of his own past collections." -Style.com</span><br /><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bloggfiler.no/martevs.blogg.no/images/464100-8-1269345640089.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://bloggfiler.no/martevs.blogg.no/images/464100-8-1269345640089.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;">6. M-A-C Nailpolish Spring Forecast<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Spring is right around the corner. . . And M-A-C has released its spring forecast, so this spring we should be mixing it up with nude, purple, pink, coral and peach nails. I'm simply loving the campaign pictures as well! </span><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;"><br /><br /></span><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bloggfiler.no/martevs.blogg.no/images/464100-8-1269346378639.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 425px; height: 550px;" src="http://bloggfiler.no/martevs.blogg.no/images/464100-8-1269346378639.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;">7. The Book thief<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">One of my new favorite books is The Book thief by Markus Suzak. This is a direct translation from the Norwegian title, so I hope it's correct. This is a book I strongly recommend to everybody! It's a marvelous tale told by death or an death angle, who knows? Any who - READ IT!</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;"><br /><br /></span><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bloggfiler.no/martevs.blogg.no/images/464100-8-1269346610974.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 279px; height: 450px;" src="http://bloggfiler.no/martevs.blogg.no/images/464100-8-1269346610974.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;">8.

Tonica is still one of my all time favorite shops, this is where I've done some of my best designer finds - YSL, Escada, Renato Nucci, Valentino.

Long story short - I killed Ernst Horst! Good job, no surgery for me! </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">I've moved out from my apartment, and I'm ready for my big move to Oslo, jess baby! </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">I spent a weekend in my new apartment, amazing! Gonna live with some cool people, gonna lead to a lot of good stories. The weekend was basically spent partying and shopping. That's what happens when you live 2 min from the big shopping street and Zara is the first shop you meet. . . Goodie Gumdrops! </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Here's my play list for July:</span><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lqk5Vf8KAfE&feature=PlayList&p=82AA387123E3FF12&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=27">A R Rahman & M.I.A - Oh. . .

I guess that was a lie. . . </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Or in other words, I was proven wrong. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The other day I went for my 2-3 month check up after the surgery, to see if everything is mending as it should down there. </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The scar looks brilliant, according to my doctor, and I'll still have swelling and loss of feeling around the scar for about another year. That's all the good shit. </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The funny thing was, there was a new doctor there as well, wanting to see how it was all mending. He had been fascinated by my cyst (the big one) since I was admitted a couple of months ago. He'd never seen one as big as mine. . . Maybe this indicates that I should be somewhat proud of the size of Bojo (the proud name of the bundle of cysts). </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Well, they kept on looking around, and guess what! In the two months of recovering there has emerged a new freaking cyst! Which means, I have to go through another darn operation. . . </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">So my 15 min check up ended up in new blood work and new "plans" for the next couple of months. . . Thank you reproductive system! Give me a fucking second to relax. </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Now, all I can do is wait for the cancer test results, prob. not gonna be cancer this time either, since the two cysts I removed last time was all happy and healthy. </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Then I have to walk around for about 4 months letting this new found joy in my tummy grow, so that we can monitor the growing speed and size of it. . . Why not just get rid of it straight away? </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The answer to that was as easy as "it's too soon for your body to go through a procedure as that again". . . </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The joy of being up and running has been slightly diminished by that last visit to the hospital. But at least I had a great party that night, getting silly drunk and waking up on a friends sofa the next day. . . That's how you cope with tumors popping up in your abdomen I tell you! </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Now I have to come up with a good name for this new one, the best option so far is "Ernst Horst", would make for a good friend to join Bojo and Bolla. . . Need to start making a childrens book for adults about these guys. . . <br /></span>Marte S.http://www.blogger.com/profile/10489128074428476133noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353692093868226899.post-69923334953654784292009-06-01T14:33:00.001-07:002009-06-01T14:38:26.060-07:00The magic of being up and running again. . .<span style="font-family:arial;">It's been about 2-3 months since I last posted anything in here. . .

Next monday I'll have surgery, not cosmetic, I'm removing a cyst from my abdomen, and it's huge! Well, free liposuction you could call it, or just hell. . . Your choice. . .<br /><br />But let's skip the bad news and forward to the good news! Got 4 goods to tell. . .<br /><br />1. I spent the weekend in London. . . Spending money, eating brilliant food, just enjoying life. Got some great bargains, which makes me one happy baby. Bought some amazing All Saints dresses, jay! Here's a picture of one of the dresses. . .<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://imagecache.asos.com/inv/P/7/37/330645/LightGrey/image1xl.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 290px; height: 370px;" src="http://imagecache.asos.com/inv/P/7/37/330645/LightGrey/image1xl.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br />2. I bought my self a gift, too keep my happy when I figure out how to do after the surgery. A 2008 collection Chloé bag. Yes it might be a bit over the top as a "feel good gift", but damn, it feels amazing! It's a dark brown padlock messenger bag, pure magic I tell you.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.bagstodie4.com/images/chloe_1_zoom.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 274px; height: 370px;" src="http://www.bagstodie4.com/images/chloe_1_zoom.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br />3. I'm planning a trip to Zanzibar with my best friend, we're going in the beginning of June. . . If everything goes acording to plan.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Travel/Pix/pictures/2007/05/11/SpiceInvadersZanzibar_Corbis_RemiBenali460.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 460px; height: 276px;" src="http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Travel/Pix/pictures/2007/05/11/SpiceInvadersZanzibar_Corbis_RemiBenali460.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Picture is from www.theguardian.co.uk<br /><br />4. I got a mail from Getty Images, they want to enroll me into their little piece of photography heaven. So right now I'm downloading the tax-forms, the model release form and the agreement. . . Took me a vile to read the agreement, but it seems "all good".<br /><br />So it seems, if we look at the whole picture, and kind of cross out the whole surgery bit, my life is good shit these days :)<br /><br />Here is the song of the day:<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/yedD4JsZyT0&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/yedD4JsZyT0&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>Marte S.http://www.blogger.com/profile/10489128074428476133noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353692093868226899.post-67174872033792045782009-02-04T14:34:00.000-08:002009-02-04T14:48:31.388-08:00what to do. . . I guess that's the question. . .<span style="font-family: arial;">Heja</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">I feel ages pass between my posts. . . My life is one big bundle of chaos I guess. . . </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">My mind is chaotic, trying to find some sense of creativity, and the more I crave new input the harder it is. . . </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">I'm trying to work my ass of so that I'll be having a descent living next month. . . Which leaves no real time to do fun stuff, or socialize (with other creatures than my dog). </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">And in between all this chaos I'm trying to figure out what I'm gonna do when August comes sneaking up on me! </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The thing is:</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">I really had it all figured out. I have a spot at a school in Oslo, which will give me a safe education that will keep me with work until the day I die. So my plan was to go to Oslo, do the three years of school, whilst in between job and school I would try to get some freelancing done. Building a stronger folio. </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">But, then it all changed, about two weeks ago. </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">It all started with me getting a mail from some people I talked to ages ago about studying photography outside of Norway. Well, the mail said that there would be this guy from one of the schools they represented, and I could meet him and get some feedback about my folio, sounded ok by me. So I chucked together a descent lookign folio and went to meet this man. To cut the story short, the whole thing ended up with me being offered a place at the school he worked for. </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Well, all I said was "Oh, thanks. I'll have to think about it". . . </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">So that's my dilemma for the next months. WHAT TO DO! </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">I've got my tune of the day! </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The Postal Service - Such Great Heights (This song makes me one happy baby!

He went for sexy, and that's what he gave us. . . Piff, I love this collection. </span><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/AWANG/RUNWAY/12m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/AWANG/RUNWAY/12m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">This outfit is just a whole lot of fun.

Her name (on paper) is Faks Always a Golden Heart, but I need to come up with something easier ;) </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">She's a Silky Terrier, and tiny, but there's a whole lot of dog in that tiny little body of hers. </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Can't wait to get her. My sister is getting one as well, so for 6 months they are going to be living together. So tomorrow we're going out shopping for a big bed they can share. This far the only things I've bought for her is a bowl she can eat from and a leash so I can take her to the park when she needs some fresh air :) </span><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.puppy.com.my/images/bu/kit/puppy2.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 500px; height: 438px;" src="http://www.puppy.com.my/images/bu/kit/puppy2.JPG" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Found this picture on www.puppy.com, forgot to bring my camera when we went to meet the pups, but this is what she looks like!

Happy times, makes for one happy baby!</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">I've always been more off a fall/winter kind of person, so this suits me just perfect!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">There's not much out yet, but some of my favorites has arrived with a little bit of juice.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">ZAC POSEN:</span><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/ZPOSEN/RUNWAY/00220m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/ZPOSEN/RUNWAY/00220m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/ZPOSEN/RUNWAY/00080m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/ZPOSEN/RUNWAY/00080m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/ZPOSEN/RUNWAY/00050m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/ZPOSEN/RUNWAY/00050m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/ZPOSEN/RUNWAY/00030m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/ZPOSEN/RUNWAY/00030m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Zac Posen is one of my definite favorites so far. It seems "old glamor" is a big thing in fall 09, as you see in both Posen and Chanel. Posen puts his focus on a more "western European" old glamor. You could imagine the "zac posen woman" strutting her stuff in Paris. The collection is flirty, feminine and sexy. His collection was filled with little dresses, exuberant strong colors, it's simply fun. . .</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">CHANEL:</span><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/CHANEL/RUNWAY/35m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/CHANEL/RUNWAY/35m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">I love this coat! And the boots! </span><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/CHANEL/RUNWAY/49m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/CHANEL/RUNWAY/49m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/CHANEL/RUNWAY/28m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/CHANEL/RUNWAY/28m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/CHANEL/RUNWAY/03m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/CHANEL/RUNWAY/03m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Chanel really fascinated me this time. . . It's got this strong eastern European empire feel to it, all the way from the head pieces worn by the women to the soviet inspired uniforms worn by the men. It's a brilliant collection, full of amazing pieces. My favorite must be the military jackets, coats and boots worn by the men. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">BURBERRY PORSUM:</span><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/BURBERRY/RUNWAY/21m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/BURBERRY/RUNWAY/21m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/BURBERRY/RUNWAY/04m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/BURBERRY/RUNWAY/04m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/BURBERRY/RUNWAY/10m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/BURBERRY/RUNWAY/10m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/BURBERRY/RUNWAY/09m.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 480px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/2009PF/BURBERRY/RUNWAY/09m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Christopher Bailey - I love you! I'm not a big fan of the flares though (but they make for a cool effect in the pictures), well I'm not big on pants really. . . Only if they're straight or skinny as hell. But the jackets and trenches in the most amazing deep colors and luxurious fabrics. The jewelry and the shoes are as candy for the eye as well. So start saving up money, and get a fabulous dark look for next fall. </span>Marte S.http://www.blogger.com/profile/10489128074428476133noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353692093868226899.post-78268278854068123602008-12-07T14:03:00.001-08:002008-12-07T14:04:13.930-08:00new dress!<a href="http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd213/1-stush/Jacquard_high_neck_5076109.jpg?t=1228259269"><img style="WIDTH: 682px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 1024px" alt="" src="http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd213/1-stush/Jacquard_high_neck_5076109.jpg?t=1228259269" border="0" /></a><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;">Ebay my heart</span></div>Marte S.http://www.blogger.com/profile/10489128074428476133noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353692093868226899.post-32021172605353373552008-12-01T17:33:00.000-08:002008-12-01T17:56:00.565-08:00. . . not over yet . . .<span style="font-family:arial;">It's amazing how some songs just gives you a kick in the stomach. . .

You should as well, it really shows that not only the big old great queen of them all (USA) is ready for a change, but so is the rest of the world as well. . .<br /><br />I am sitting up all alone right now, waiting for the election thingy to start on TV. . . Since I'm in tiny Norway, the election takes place in the middle of the night. . . Still about an hour till it really starts, can't wait. . .<br /><br />I'm keeping my fingers crossed - Obama has to win, there's no other way. . . Anyways, who gives a shit about McCain? The problem with that man is so obvious it shouldn't be an issue at all - he's old, and guess what people, if he by any chance needs to step down - guess who's taking over??? Oh jepp, it's the devil in prada - Miss Alaska! What to do? Vote Obama. . .<br /><br />Well check out <a href="www.iftheworldcouldvote.com">"IF THE WORLD COULD VOTE"</a>Marte S.http://www.blogger.com/profile/10489128074428476133noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353692093868226899.post-16274018195602144912008-11-03T15:00:00.000-08:002008-11-03T15:29:10.066-08:00What's new?

Got a friend to join as well, so I'm not all alone ;)</span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">6. Catching up on my music, new music! I'm actually impressed by the new Ray Lamontage album (Gossip In The Rain) - So give it a listen!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">I'll post some of my sketches later on, maybe I'll get some kind of feed back. . . Now I just need to find someone to help me with the sewing part of this "making clothes" thing. . . I'm not that brilliant when it comes to the sewing my self. . . Not really capable to make the patterns and all that stuff, but hey - I can learn I guess. . .

Moving there next year. . . </span><br /> <br /><span style="font-family: arial;"> The weekend was brilliant! Especially Saturday, when me and Kristin first went out for dinner, then home for a couple bottles of wine, then a Håkan Hellström concert, then Aku Aku (a really cool bar) followed by an after party. . . The perfect Saturday, which led to a Sunday in bed! Fetus position all the way baby! </span><br /> <br /><span style="font-family: arial;"> Now I'm back in Bergen, been here for a couple of days, then tomorrow I'm off to Stord again. . . </span><br /> <br /><span style="font-family: arial;"> Watched the presidential debate last night, since here in Norway it airs in the middle of the night. . . It was funny watching McCain shooting himself in the leg over and over again - go Obama! </span><br /> <br /><span style="font-family: arial;"> I've had a couple of busy days now, just being social really, not doing to much constructive stuff. . .
