Ferie...Hva er det?

Da er det altså uka der andre har fri, heldige som de er. Jeg har gleden av å jobbe hver dag.
Nå skal jeg selvfølgelig ikke klage, jeg pleide da å whine over å ikke ha jobb. Problemet er at dette kommer til å ta livet av beina mine på dag tre. Så da sitter jeg å ser etter sko på nettet som kan hjelpe meg, men det viser seg jo så klart at jeg ikke har peiling på sko..



Ellers så har Erlend vært på besøk for første gang:)! Det var kjempe koselig å ha han her så han fikk se hvor vi bor. Tror han likte seg her, men sofaen var han jo ikke akkurat direkte imponert over. (Han har jo også et poeng der, da^^) Etter det dro vi til Holmestrand, å det var koooselig:) Han hadde ikke vært der på 21 år:)! Pappa lagde kjempe god mat, Anne Lina kom på besøk, og så så vi på gamle bilder. Koselig, koselig, koselig:)

Bilder kommer litt senere:)

Jeg må si at jeg liker meg i drømmeland:P

RIP Chandler

Savner den lille jenta vår hver eneste dag, det er helt utrolig hvor mye selskap det er i en slik pelsdott!















Nå er det på tide å begynne å blogge igjen^^

Nå er det vel to mennesker i hele verden som leser denne greia, men jeg fant den igjen igår, å da kom jeg på at hele grunnen til at jeg faktisk blogger er fordi det er så morsomt å gå tilbake å se på ting jeg har skrevet før som jeg har glemt av. Bilder og stunder jeg har glemt helt av, helt til jeg leser om dem her igjen. Så da skal jeg altså fortsette.

For å oppdatere, siden i sommer har jeg:
* Mistet Chandler;/
* Blitt forlovet
* Øvelseskjørt myye med pappa
* Mistet morfar
* Jobbet som en tulling
* Feiret jul sammen med JT på Hamar
* Begynt å tatt ordentlige kjøretimer

Så da burde jeg kanskje legge ut en masse bilder av forskjellige ting, som jeg skulle gjort for tre og en halv evighet siden, men har glemt. Men først og fremst så må jeg vaske å rydde, for Erlend kommer på besøk om noen få dager:):):)

Terrorangrep i Norge

Som alle vet så har det vært et terrorangrep her i Norge. Først ble det rapportert 17 døde tilsammen, så gikk tallet opp til forferdelige 93 døde. Nå er vi nede på 76. Dette er helt utrolig trist. Helt ufattelig...Jeg har ikke ord. Kjenner mange som hadde noen på Utøya, og jeg kjenner en som var der da bomben gikk av. Noen har kjent noen som døde, andre har overlevd. Hadde en i praksis engang som var der. Hvor latterlig er ikke det? en av mine elver? så unge alle sammen, så alt for...Ingen har fortjent det forferdelige som har skjedd med dem, det forferdelige de har sett, og de venner de har mistet.

22 juli 2011 fikk vi vårt 11 september, og det kan vi aldri forandre. Vi kan aldri gå tilbake til det som var. Har tent lys hver dag, sett på nyhetene og gått i fakkeltog. Fakkeltoget i Hamar i går var vakkert, de sier at det var 20000 oppmøte, det var flott og jeg er glad jeg var med på det:)

Skjønner ikke åssen jeg får det til^^

Jeg har fått drømmejobben, tur til USA, får være sammen med JT og vennene mine, og besøke både mamma og pappa - alt på en sommer:)

Det er veldig morsomt å jobbe: Jobber bare i lag med greie folk...i en butikk full av bøker. What's not to love?

Har blitt hekta på Boston Legal igjen...Mad Cow, jeg bare sier det. Ah, good times:P


Brian Stevens: Motion for continuance is denied.
Denny: You know what I'm going to do, Brian, just to show you there are no hard feelings? I'm going to sleep with your wife.


Denny: Here's a little secret. I know things. Don't tell.
Alan: That secret seems unbelievably safe.


Alan: Denny, I could be wrong, but you might want to think about settling this.
Denny: You're absolutely right. You could be wrong.


Melissa: How's my hair? Does my hair work?
Alan: It does appear to grow each month.


Denny: Alan you know the one thing we sometimes forget is no matter how hard your day, no matter how tough your choices were, how complex your ethical decisions...you always get to choose what you want for lunch.
Alan: Daily I am amazed at your inexhaustable ability to just live.
Denny: It's either that or die.

Jeg hater penger!

Som alltid så vil jeg til USA mer enn noe annet på sommeren. Det handler ikke om å være råflått å bruke en masse tusen på å fly til USA bare for morro skyld. Jeg møtte mennesker der nede som jeg alltid kommer til å være glade i, som jeg tenker på å savner flere ganger om dagen - hver dag!

Jeg stresset som en tulling for å få meg en jobb slik at jeg kunne tjene nok penger til å dra, og jeg fikk drømmejobben. Jeg måtte så få fri lenge nok til å dra, og uten å spørre engang så fikk jeg to uker fri i begynnelsen av juli. Alt var perfekt, helt til jeg så at flybillettene har gått opp i pris, slik at jeg ikke lenger har råd til å dra. Typisk min flaks!

Det som er så forbanna irriterende er at jeg har penger på sparekontoen, bare ikke nok til å kjøpe billetten nå! Jeg kommer til å tjene ca. 13 000 i sommer og får 18 000 i stipend i august.JT har sagt seg mer en villig til å låne meg penger, men også han får penger for sent til å bestille noen billett...
Og det er det som er selve definisjonen av : =)(/&%¤W%&/(REWQ!¤&/(&)=????Y/&#"!!!!!!!

Vente ENDA ett år på å få se menneskene der nede igjen? Ville heller spise sand og drikke olje resten av året.

Rome 2011

I dette innlegget så skriver jeg på Engelsk pga mine kjære amerikanere som leser lite til enda mindre norsk...Alle skrivefeil ignoreres med takk^^

Day 1
Marit, Ingvild, Gry and I left my apartment in the middle of the night after NO sleep. We took the train to Oslo:
and then we waited at Gardermoen airport:
before we had another exciting(not) wait in Amsterdam. I'm in a new country, and where do I decide to eat? that's right, burger king. (They didn't have a Mcdonalds). When we arrived in Rome we were all very excited. We were picked up at the airport by our Norwegian guide Astrid and a bus. We drove to our hotel...Nice? No..Ants in the bathroom? yes...Did we care? NO! WE were in ROME for crying out loud! Then we walked around outside, visiting two churches in ten minutes. Not bad. Santa Maria Maggiore was the first one, and it was beyond beautiful. Had I seen it after St. Peters church/St.Peter's Basilica, or whatever it's called in english, I probably would have found it a bit plain, but I was beyond impressed with this church.
We also had a quick look around inside Basilica di Santa Prassede:


Then we (all 33 of us) walked to a restaurant where we had our first meeting with italian food...And all I'll say is this: Be careful what you order! My friends Ingvild and Marit wound up with the pizza...Bottom?bread?and salad, and that's pretty much it. A picture of Ingvild and me at the restaurant:


Day 2
We woke up(Ingvild, Marit, Gry and I share a room) got ready, inhaled breakfast and went to meet the others outside. We walked around all day. It was supposed to rain all week..We ended up being really sunburned. It hurt all over...I love the sun....?Anyway, first we went to find our guide Astrid. She gave us this thing that we hung around our neck, and then there was this other thing that we put in the thing, and then we put it in our ear, and Astrid had a microphone, and so we could all hear her talk, and now I'm realizing that I wouldn't even be able to explain it any better in Norwegian, and isn't that a little sad... Anyway, we saw this ridiculously beautiful, pure white building, it's a monument built in the honor of Victor Emmanuel.
We continued walking, we went through Capitoline Hill, one of the seven hills in Rome and where all the important power buisiness stuff goes on. Marit and I on Capitoline Hill, in front of some once-important man on a horse.

We walked on over to the Roman Forum, or Forum Romanum. I could explain what that is, but Wikipedia does it better: Forum Romanum is a small, rectanglar forum (plaza) surrounded by the ruins of ancient government buildings at the center of the city of Rome. As I understood it, they were the oldest ruins in Rome.

Ingvild, Me, Marit and Gry

We went to lunch at this nice little place:


After lunch we went to the Colosseum, were we went inside to take pictures, and then we bought a couple of souvenirs from one of the billion souvenir stands outside.


We also went to this church, Basilica di San Clemente, were we couldn't take pictures, but I wish I could have taken some. The church was amazing. The church we could see from the ground was built in the 1700 hundreds, if I remember correctly. Underneath it they had found a church from 400 A.D. The one they found under there was from 100 A.D. We got to "go underground" and look at these churches and it was incredible. Especially the oldest one. It had all these cool tiles with patterns. It was probably very beautiful 2000 years ago when it was above ground.
A picture of us outside the church were we all bought sunglasses for three euros:

Some random places:



When we got back to our hotel we were all badly burned by the sun, and exhausted from all the walking. We changed and got ready for dinner. This waiter walked right up to us on the street and "kidnapped" us into the restaurant. The waiter was really funny/weird, he "stole" my camera and went around taking pictures of everybody in the restaurant.




Day 3
We went to the Vatican to see Saint Peters church and Saint Peters square. The church was amazing and unbelievable. It's probably the most impressive building on the planet.
Me and Gry outside the church:

All of us outside the church:

St.Peters square:




After being in the Vatican, we went to Castel Sant'Angelo, and we walked across the Sant'Angelo bridge(everyone who have read Angels and Demons by Dan Brown know what I'm talking about)



After this we went to Piazza Navona were we saw the Fountain of the Four Rivers, also described in the book.
Then we walked over to the Pantheon, a 2000 year old building that was turned into a church.



After seeing Pantheon, the whole group went for lunch at this nice restaurant.



Pictures from dinner, we went to the same place as the night before, were we sat outside and had a great time.






Day 4
We got up early to go to Assisi, a small town from the middle ages, two and a half hours away from Rome. Wikipedia: It was the birthplace of St. Francis, who founded the Franciscan religious order in the town in 1208. We went to the church of St. Francis as well, it was great. The city was beautiful, so old, and it just looked like something straight out of a movie. We walked around all day, bought souvenirs and had a disastrous experience at a restaurant where we were almost thrown out because we wore tank tops, and they frown on that.
After a long bus ride home(god bless the Ipod) we got back to the hotel and got ready for dinner. Yes, we went back to the same restaurant as before. The waiter was ignoring us all night, being pissed about Marit and Ingvild(the single ones) rejecting him all night. It was rather funny to watch, and it became funnier and funnier.










Day 5


This day was all about walking around, seing some places, like the spanish steps and the Trevi fountain, the biggest fountain in Rome, not to mention one of the most famous fountains in the world. It was incredibly beautiful!

The Spanish steps are supposed to be beautiful, but all we really saw was a bunch of umbrellas. But it was very colorful, to say the least.


Standing somewhere, looking out over Rome:


As pathetic as it is, after a week of Italian food, we were desperate for some serious junk food, so we went looking for a McDonald's. And find it we did! Big macs are the best!


Now, this was our last night in Rome, and our feet were hurting so bad we could hardly walk, so after a LOT of wandering around Rome, Shopping, and pretending to know how to get home to the hotel, when we finally got home, we were in heaven.
Gry and Marit are celebrating the fact that we can sit down and relax for a couple of hours before dinner:

My souvenirs:

Ingvild getting dressed for dinner, showing off our "tidy" room:

All dressed up:




We went out to eat with the rest of our group, with flowers from the psycho waiter from right across our hotel, who were all of a sudden back to being cheerful. After dinner the four of us went back to "our" restaurant. The waiter quickly left after getting furious with us for not letting any one of the others leave with the creep alone. He was so pissed I decided to act a little unladylike and told him to go to hell as he walked away. (I had a certain warning from a certain Minnesotan ringing in my head, and I didn't like the idea of any of it). So we sat there, letting it sink in. Our trip was over, nobody lost anything, or got hurt by anyone, we were all good. After a while we went upstairs to pack, and get ready for our long trip home the next morning...

And this is what we looked like the next morning:

In Amsterdam again


And finally back in Norway, on the train home
