I have for the time being moved to another blog, still tumblr, but I felt like I needed a change away from this one.
You can find me at Huldra’s World.
Lazy Sunday
Well, it’s not all that of a lazy Sunday today, I have a lot of things that I need to get done. Amongst them is finishing some homework, finishing some Christmas presents and see if I can fix some new trousers I’ve gotten so they aren’t 20 cm too long for my short legs. There’s cleaning involved on my schedule as well. And drawing. I hope I can get two more drawings...
First month of liver destruction...
… is over for most of the students. The first month of introduction courses, and partying every evening to do networking is finally over. I’m not in uni, but we see them and read about the accidents in particular in September and in May. This year someone decided it was fun to fall out a window while being drunk from the 3rd -or was it the 4th?- floor. Though things are calming down a...

Production fear, food and friends!
I have a fear that sometimes takes too much control over me, and that is the kind of fear of that I wont be able to achieve the goals I’ve set, or the expectations of others. It becomes paralyzing, and makes me completely unable to do anything productive at all. I’ve had this about math, I like math, I’m not extremely talented in it, but if given some extra time I’ll come...
I think I’ve decided I want to learn to draw and paint a mix between both fine art and art nouveau. I still haven’t drawn anything today.
For some unknown reason I’m avoiding to start drawing. It’s been like this for a week or so now. I sketched some during natural science class yesterday though. However, that’s slightly off topic. Because… In my not so productive time I ended up stumbling across the net, and came across this page featuring the most awesome cupcakes I’ve ever seen. Let me show you an...

I know I’m bad at taking photographs and posting them on my blog. But today I think you’ll be quite pleased that I didn’t. Because, I want to share with you my happiness over finally managing to find green nail-polish in the stores. So yesterday, when I was supposed to shop for new shoes and clothes for this coming autumn, I ended up buying a new hair-dye and green nail-polish....

Bitter-Sweet Enmi's Etsy Shop
Doesn’t this cute little avatar make you think: candy!? It does for me. Though I’m not here to talk about candy, I’m here to talk about Bitter-Sweet Enmi. A swedish friend of mine who has recently opened up her shop at etsy.com ( which is a fantastic web-page, and I’m so happy I know about it! ). Right now she’s selling...

Sketchbook project
Yesterday I got my moleskine-sketchbook for the art project I signed up for. I chose the theme “the greatest story”, Though now I am a bit in a dilemma. I want to make it a good one, filled with nice drawings. And I have a few ideas on what to do, but I don’t know which to pick.
Draw from books and stories which I love
Draw creatures and monsters from all sorts of stories

The last few weeks have been rough, in fact they’ve been impossible. But I am still here, living and breathing.
The weather forecast predicted nice weather this week-end, and so far they’ve been right. The problem is of course the whole what’s too cold and what’s too warm to wear. My wardrobe seems to have been shrinking lately, or maybe I simply haven’t done enough...

I have to admit that I am pretty surprised by the turn of events. Or the lack there of. Almost every autumn I tend to become intensely creative and curious. I get ambitious and want to explore the world, I take the car and drive away for an entire day just to look at the amazing colours in the nature and perhaps take a picture or several of it, or just draw them. I start crafting, I read and the...
Long-distance is hard.
I found this project on the blog of one of my dearest friends, and I thought.. hey, what the heck. I want to do this as well! So I signed up, and I’ll receive my sketch-book in 2 weeks time. I picked the theme The Greatest story ever told. I tried to get my boyfriend to sign up as well, but he was too frustrated by the themes, so I doubt he will. But I’ll challenge him to do it, and...
First day of school
Last year I finally decided what I am going to be when I grow up (though it’d be smart to ask the question if I ever do intend to grow up?). I am going to become a crazy biomedical laboratory scientist. I’ll be the one wearing a long white scientist/doctor’s jacket with crayons in my breast pocket, frizzy hair and crazy glasses. I’ll also be the one studying your blood for...
Yellow paper
The first week of work me and my colleague spent a lot of time scourging the internet for news-updates. It was a calm week, no angry phone-calls from sick people. Not a lot of ruckus on our end, though the doctor was more stressed. Difficult consultations I imagine, without actually knowing. Regardless, in the end all the calm days made me restless and the other day. Tuesday, in-fact, I decided it...
I realize the time between each time I write here are increasing, as well as the drop of actual content. For a while all I did was linking random nice stuff from around the net. I have been thinking for a while, though I do a lot of thinking on a lot of projects, that I’ll try and change my blog. Though, I have by no means concluded to what for.
My holiday is over and I’m slowly...
The summer holiday is officially over and daily life is once returning. For the past 5 weeks I’ve been a guest and had guests. There hasn’t been one day where I have been entirely alone. It’s been strange, but extremely enjoyable. My two weeks in Holland was filled with sun, friends and activities almost everyday. We visited Center Parcs, we played Dungeons and Dragons, we went...

It’s been a while since I’ve updated now, at least with anything substantial.
Right now I am sitting by the very messy kitchen table at my parent’s place and testing out this mini-laptop. I realize that I might be a bit far behind when it comes to testing out new gadets that comes out on the electronic market, but heck. You got to be rich to afford what comes out anyway....

It feels like mere hours
Or simply a few days. The past six months has gone past in a blurry, it’s like if I’ve been racing a speeding car since January. I’m not tired or exhausted, but the time has just disappeared. I thought it would feel like years before I got to go see Aleksejs again, but apparently not. It’s barely over a week till I travel down to Holland and see him. In the meantime...
Birthday present
Someone dear to me just had his birthday, and in that event I’ve been looking for a birthday present for him. He enjoys reading books, and I thought about getting him a book of history. But history is vast. Which history should I choose from, and how would I know he hasn’t read that particular book? I know I won’t buy him any books upon the first or second world war, as neither...
I lost my home today.
Knowledge
There is just too many things I want to learn, that I want to study. And when they all start to come upon one another I am rendered immobile. I don’t know where to start, I don’t know how to put it in order, what to get, what to research. What I will have time to, and what I wont. And instead, I sit here. And I play, or I talk on skype, or I watch some series. While the back of my head...

Here's irony for you
With the lack of money to buy a few new desired books, I’ve been forced to pick up one of those I once got a hold of, but never actually read. It’s been lying on the shelf and gathering dust for a while. Why I picked this one and not another I’m not sure. Regardless, it is a book about logic, so far it’s about argumentative logics. But get this. I don’t understand it....
I wonder how Canada would feel
If the Norwegians decided to put their national flag in a bucket of tar on their national day. I find it highly annoying and unnecessary. I don’t always agree to the ways of Statoil and their proceedings in the money-making-world, but that does not justify the Canadian group of Green Peace to dip our flag into tar. And quite frankly it provokes me.

Hair!
It’s been two months since I last stepped inside a hairdresser to get my hair done. When you have short hair, then it starts to become quite noticeable if you wait for too long to go to the hairdresser. And my outgrown hair (which still would have worked well for another month without me looking like some kind of monster-freak) was starting to bother me. I had the day off from work today, so...
A new and better life
Started yesterday! Or, well possibly a year ago if you consider my education as well. But the thing I’m thinking of more precisely started yesterday. I’m going to get a better life rhythm, as posh as that sounds. Day one (meaning today) has gone by incredible slow! Wether this is a side effect of the change I hope to complete, or if it’s simply me being far to excited and...

Travel stories
I woke up at 05.00 this morning because the sun was shining through the windows in my livingroom. That is one of the drawbacks about spring and summer, it gets so insanely bright early! Soon though, the sun wont go down at all. Or well, it will go down, but it will remain bright as a cloudy and rainy autumn day during the night. I currently have no curtains in my livingroom, I need to fix this...
I love the fact that...
…if I come home later than usual from work, and people say “You’re home late” I can sometimes reply with “Yea, I know…” *munches on some fruit* “I was stuck in surgery” and then casually walk off.

Insurance
I almost feel like an responsible adult now, yesterday I went out and spent more money buying a travel insurance. So far I’ve been travelling around without it, I suppose it was time to not continue to push my luck. If you think about it, it’s not really that expensieve in comparison to what it’ll cost me if I do actually lose my luggage, get mugged or suddently gets infected by...
