Complete With a Water Slide

Hey you guys. I've been silent for a while, but that's just because I haven't felt like posting. Stuff has happened, but not enough for me to manage to strength to post about it. I'm fine, btw. Just my family has been wrecked by a stomach virus, so I've basically not eaten for a week. And just when the nausea let go some what I get this horrible cough and my body is aching! Thank god, I've finished all my Christmas shopping! Cause I can't lift a finger right now.

Tomorrow I'm going to watch the ballet the Nutcracker. I haven't seen it since I was ten or something, and I'm hoping I won't be too sick to enjoy it.

I sent out my Christmas letters on Friday and I hope they will all reach you in time for Christmas. I know I was a bit late this year, but I really hope the post will come through.

I celebrated my birthday on Saturday. It was a absolute blast and I haven't laughed that much in ages. There was a lot of vodka and playing of "I never", and I can safely say that I've never been that hung over in my LIFE! (Which really doesn't say much, cause I've never really been hung over before.) The family party on Sunday was horrible. Horrible! I tell you!

So yeah, that's my life right now. I'm twenty and happy, and so very sick. Thank you to everybody who wished me a happy birthday, you are all lovely! &hearts

( Awesome presents I got for my birthday )

On a more personal note: I'm spending way too much time on Facebook and in the last month I've sent over a hundred texts. That's... so not normal. I blame my big giant crush. The logical part of my brain is telling my how ridiculous and stupid I'm acting, but the other part is giggling and saying "But he might show up any minute! And we want to talk to him!" I'm an idiot.

Fandom wise:

I'm so bitter that I have to avoid all Narnia talk. The movie doesn't come out until December 25th here. Yeah, what kind of date is that, anyway?? Who goes to the movies on the first day of Christmas? But on second or third day I'm dragging my family to go watch it.

The few things I've heard isn't all that good, but I'm have an open mind, and I care more about the developing of the characters than I do the story or plot. So really, I don't care if they've changed the whole story as long as Edmund is Edmund and Lucy is Lucy and Eustace is awesome.

People seems to be having fun in the 3 sentence ficathon, which is great! It didn't turn out to be as fun as I'd expected it to be for me, but who cares about that. I'm just not feeling the writing vibes lately. Which is a shame cause I really want to write! But I can't.

I'm also blissfully high on cough syrup right now. I've finally stopped coughing!

I'm feeling so much better today. It really helped to just get the rage off my chest and getting support back. Now I'm much more able to think clearly. I don't think I have to make any changes at all. I have faith in my participants!

SO HAPPY THINGS:

- I made poetry today in class. We had to pick a picture in our text-book that caught our eye, and then write a poem with only three lines. I chose this one:


"Farewell"- by Edward Cucuel

And it inspired these two poems: ( The smoke from the cigarette... )

I love this format. Only three lines to tell a story! Can you write a poem using this format, using the painting as your inspiration? I'd love to see more. It's such a gorgeous painting.

And then, proof that Inception has taken over my brain:

So I've been thinking, if I needed a totem, what would it be? I thought about all the pretty knick-knacks I own, and the answer was obvious all along.

You see, a couple of years ago, when I was still sick, I bought this angel stone - an angel figurine inside a oval plastic stone.- and the box said it would protect me. Now I'm not much of a believer in magical things, but every time I hold that stone I feel safe and grounded. So obviously that would be my totem.

Last night, I went to bed thinking that I should take it out, since I'd stored it in a box. I wake up, had forgotten all about it, went to school, and when I came home... I found it sitting on my bedside table. I did not put it there!

I was going to do some meta thoughts too, but I'm saving that for the weekend. I'm watching the film again tomorrow, and I can't wait!

<--- See new awesome icon! It makes me happy!

I love Sundays like these. I get to sleep in, there's biathlon on TV (my bb. Emil Hegle Svendsen didn't do all that well today. He's still in the lead to win the World Cup, though!) and there's ski jumping in the new Holmenkollen! (The ski jump hill in Oslo.) My mum is cooking dinner in the kitchen and my dog is lying comfortably in my lap. Yeah, this is a nice ending to a great week.

A few things:

- The dating on the Three Sentence Ficathon goes out tomorrow and I've decided to not do anything about that. It seems people are mostly done playing. You can still find it in my links if the urge to write some three sentence fics strikes you.

- I wrote my first Triple H. story last night. Here There Be Rules is a story about the three main teachers and their rules. I imagine these scenes would take place in the middle of episode one. (Here There Be Rules is actually the name of the first episode, now that I think about it.)

- I have finished writing another one! Yeah, I'm just on fire this weekend. This one is about the back story of Paige Dawson. I'll have to edit it a few times, because it's a little long, and I'm not sure if all of it is all that good.

- I have gathered everything I have ever written on my delicious page. I have written 38 stories. I am impressed with myself.

Real Life To Do List: Done!

+ Norwegian presantation
+ English Test
+ Ireland project presantation
+ History and Philosophy test

What a wonderful week! It has been hard and stressful, but wow, how fulfilling. I am so immensely proud of myself. I been to school everyday, and I've finished all the test and projects that were due this week. This weekend I'm going to relax and hopefully get some writing done.

How have your week been?

Life has been hectic lately, but the good kind of hectic. I'm actually doing stuff and having fun. I've spent time with my BFF who's a private in the Royal Norwegian Air Force. I love seeing her. The ironic thing is that I see her more now than I did when she lived at home.

I'm going to take the swineflu shot on Friday. With my immune system that's probably a good idea. Let's cross our fingers and hope it won't give me any weird after effects in twenty years.

So Christmas is coming up. So this year I thought I'd do something different than sending cards. (I'm poor okay! Stamps cost money!) So instead I thought I'd each write you a fic if you want to. I'll make a seperate post later. I promise I'll write it, but it might take some time which is why I'm starting now. Exams are coming up and writing is the perfect distraction when things are going to shits.

So how was your weekend? I was supposed to stay at my grandparents cause my folks were having a party, but my grandmother caught the flu (might be swineflu we're not sure.)and I was banned from visiting them. So I had to quickly find somewhere else to be. I went to a party. (You all is like yeah? so what? But for me that's quite rare actually.) I had fun. I think. I forgot that I get drunk very fast. I spent Sunday feeling pretty bad, but I had to finish a project about Canada (which we're going to present tomorrow. Wish me luck!) and then I went to a fotball match with my family. I'm really starting to dig it. I love my team and I think I'll join their support club, my brother is already a member and it looks so much fun!

(I reserve the right to use a lot of CAP LOCKS and exclamation marks!!! Because I am so happy!!)

Yesterday, I drove! And if I may say so, I'm pretty darn good at it too! Then I went food shopping with my parents. (Remember that this was after 4 hours of Lightning Process!) That is bloody great. I'm up all day and sleep all night. And I'm just high on life!!

Today, I took a long walk with my dog. It went so well, if we ignore that I was drowned in sweat when I came home:P Then I drove some more. And I'm really good at it!!

I think I'm gonna re do my layout. I need something to signify a change. How do you do those custom made ones? Do anyone know? I will also have to take out my You suck icon. Cause that's the one I used when I felt really bad.

Life is great people! Smile and be happy. Don't chose to be irritated and angry! You don't have to be.

I have all these plot bunnies in my head for angsty one-shots. Because that's what I do apparently, I write dark angsty stuff, when I'm happy.

I have had the best day in forever! I slept the whole night through, woke up at 10 am, and I haven't gone to sleep yet. I am so proud of my self! And really happy!

And because of that I'm celebrating by using my favorite icon, even though it has nothing to do with this post!

I have had the best week in forever! I have followed my doctors advice and only done one big thing a day.

Saturday: I went shopping with my mum.

Sunday: I hung out with my friends.

Monday: I had a school meeting.

Tuesday: I had school for an hour.

Wednesday: I had a meeting with my new treatment lady.

Thursday: I had an other hour with school. (School two times in one week!)

Friday: I didn't do much, I rested and tried to figure out our new TV recorder.

Saturday: Today I'm going to my grandmother's. My parents are having a party.

I'm really really happy with myself and I hope next week will be as good as this one^^

I had a lovely day today. I went shopping with my mother. I never feel comfortable buying something with out my mothers opinion. I'm still just sixteen and I don't want to waste my money and I only really trust my mum on this kind of stuff. So in conclusion; I don't like shopping and if I do and only do it with my mum!

I bought (with mum's money, one of the nice perks shopping with my mummy=D ) two books:

Stardust- by Neil Gaiman

and

Sushi for beginners- by Marian Keyes

both of them in norwegian. I also got some nice tops and long sleeved t-shirts. I am very happy. Now I don't have to brave the mall before I need new books again. I love bookstores. I love reading and owning books. It really isn't the same when you borrow at the library, I just love seeing my bookcase full of books I love and own! I will be very upset if I don't get many books for my birthday and Christmas. =)
