309. New hair

Or more like new fringe!

You like?

Well, I quite like it myself. So yeah! :D

307. Grzegorz Neimczuk

I forgot an important bit of my dinner yesterday, I got to personally meet this guy.

Heck, I even got to make dinner for him! 

The Røkholts attract a lot of awesome people over to their home!

I had completely no idea who he was, until Ellen (Johanne's mum) made him play the piano, and OH. MY. GOD. I was completely gobsmacked. 

Completely gobsmacked.

I feel that the Youtube video doesn't do him enough justice, but you got to believe me he was amazing on the piano! His emotions, his movements, every note he touches, *squeals*

  And, I for one am a huge sucker for anyone who plays the piano!

And when you can play like that ... *le sigh*

You know what is more amazing about this guy, it is that he was also an amazing normal guy with extra ordinary talents. He was really friendly, very humble and completely well cute. :)

So yeah, that was a fun day yesterday!

And if you are wondering, yes he plays music for a living and has won countless of music awards. So, he isn't just an ordinary guy who plays a piano.

302. This is where I want to be.

Trolltunga

Preikestolen

Sometimes I wonder, how can you not love Norway?

Now, I just have to find myself a hiking walking buddy *CoughMagnarCough*

 I think this beats going anywhere else in Europe. *CoughMagnarCough*

With views like that, how can you not want to keep on living, learning, discovering?

Knowing the world, has so much more for you to see.

Pie, can we go?

You're the only one I know stupid enough and patient enough!

301. Shoes.

Love them and hate them.

Love them a lot, but wrong size. 

But I can always attempt to sell them?

So, I have this brand new pair of Buffalo Boots shoes in a size 40 that is honestly, not for human feet. 

Or fits someone with a shoe size 40 (True to size).

Bought in Denmark for about 900 Danish Krone. So plus minus RM 500?

Can be bought online for 99 Euro (Unfortunately, no linking to the shoes itself)

Looks identical to this, only in shiny patent leather. 

Since I am more a size 39.5. The shoe doesn't fit me as well. Thus almost impossible to walk in.

Worn a total of about 6 hours. So it is practically brand new :)

And every girl needs a Patent Leather pumps A-la Christian Louboutin right!

Interested? Mail me, suggest a appropriate price and I'll consider selling it to you. 

Asking price, 700 NOK/ RM400?

Mail me, if you want some pictures of the shoes itself!

293. Quest for shiny legs

Yes, you heard me right, and I have mentioned it before about how I am trying to achieve a pair of "shiny legs" and contrary to popular believes *coughJohannecough* I do not already have shiny legs.

So, I thought if I can't have something naturally, there is always what I call "product enhancement". For my case, I have been using baby oil. 

Why baby oil?

Mainly I thought logically, it is oil and oil makes things shiny, so why not?

That, and the fact that I am a bit of a cheap when it comes to things like this. If I can get the same effect for a cheaper price, why pay hundreds of dollars for it right?

So, my baby oil cost me about 30 NOK/ 7USD.

Verdict : After using it for over a month. Cannot say my legs are any shinier than before :(

So, in terms of whether it works, the answer is No.

Although so, it did help with my dry skin.

Would I keep using it? Yes.

Again, for the price I pay, I really see no harm in lathering on some baby oil every now and then.

Though a word of warning : Oil is extremely messy and sticky to work with. You do risk the chance of staining things and making others slip in the bathroom if you are not careful! 

289. Looking forward

<3

So, I usually don't talk about relationships on my blog ever, unless I do it unknowingly.

This is mainly because, even though in many ways I think what Magnar and I have is quite amazing, it is no guarantee that things will always be this way.

It really doesn't take much to put a strain on relationships you know.

That, and I really don't like prying people.

I think I tell too much about myself here as it is.

And I should know, because every now and then I get so emotionally pissed at everything and everyone, I myself don't know how tomorrow will turn out. :)

But lucky me, Magnar has always been nice enough to weather some emotional storms and we are still going strong. In less than a weeks time, we would have been "officially dating" for 2 years. Plus minus. 

So since I am feeling a bit on the mushy mode, I thought I would do a stream of "How idiots make relationship work, the cliché and if it works" :)

Sounds okay?

283. Shoes

New hauls from Denmark.

Aunt thinks I have way too many shoes and insisted I either do something with at least 5-6 of them. :(

Personally, I don't think I have too many. I have loads of the same kinds of shoes and they more often than not, don't fit the outfit I have on! So, how is that too many?

Agree?

Can't believe she wants me to abandon my babies. 

But I do somewhat agree it has to be done though.
I really don't like having too many that things just start to be a bit over whelming. Plus I don't exactly especially like shoes.

Selection process. :(

Sorry babies.

My biggest issue with shoes like everything else, is that I have not used all of them long enough to give or sell them away, but I haven't used them enough to keep them either.
Irony of life right.

And some shoes cost a whole lot (for me at least, because I am such a cheap) and some cost the equivalent of a pack of chips. So keeping and giving is a bit more tricky then you think.

Good thing is, I can show you later how in order to keep my babies save from harms way, I have decided to make my book shelfs their new home. 

277. Flashbacks and fast forwards.

Its the weekends again! Weee!

So what are everyone's plans?

Since I am on the computer downstairs as it is, wouldn't it be nice to revisit memory lane? Haha!

Feels like such a long time ago since my 16th Birthday. I loved that cake! Om nom nom nom! 

I remembered I specifically asked to Mummy to make sure they put extra jelly on it!

Now, who is that man cutting my cake?!

Haha!

My goodness, I am going to curl under a burrow and die now. Please excuse me. Haha! ROFLOLWTF?

FML!

Nevermind, fast forward a little bit.

 Guess this isn't too bad?

At least I don't look like a sunburnt man any longer. Haha! :)

Then there was my 19th Birthday which you could read here

Which at that point, I stopped growing and changing very much and the only difference is Johanne's cakes.
Perhaps she would outdo herself this year too?

Isn't it quite weird looking back at older pictures and seeing how much we have all grown? 

If I feel like it later, maybe I'll publish more pictures.

Hahahaahahahahaha
Still cant stop laughing. Fml.

271. Job interview

So, I was over at a job interview today. I applied for a job at the Lost and Found over at Oslo International Airport. So, I hope I get it. It would be an uh-mah-zing summer if I can get a job at the airport, for I just loooooooove airports and everything about the airports.

The planes, the people, the atmosphere, the everything!

Oh, the pay definitely helps too.

Well, of course I hope I get it. The lady that interviewed me didn't say anything just yet. But I have a good feeling, so I hope I get hired!

*crosses fingers*

Once I get hired at one place, my search for a job can stop looking! 

Then I can just look forward to the summer!

And oh, I can feel it already, summertime

 15 degrees today, MmmMmm

Time to bring out my slutty clothes from the back of my closet and use the warmth as an excuse. :)

Haha! I kid, I kid. Maybe.

266. Easter!

So, a few days ago I was invited over to the Hjelmstad's place for some "Easter dinner" Though it honestly felt more like an Easter lunch to me. Well, since we did start at 4 pm

What can I say?

Kate and Co, always makes some of the most yummy food there is!

And, Even on regular days! It is insane that house. Completely insane.

Oh, and after food we even managed to squeeze in an Easter egg hunt!
It was probably my first Easter egg hunt ever!

Avocado and Prawn Salad, MMMM.

Emphasize capitals!

My pictures dont do it justice. :(

Then we had a main course of some roast lamb? potatoes and some gravy looking awesome thing.

Though,by then, I was too busy being a glutton, I couldn't be bothered to take any more pictures :)

So you just have to take my word for it. 

It was fantaboloustically good! 

Then came desserts, and I realized... I couldn't resist not taking pictures.

Can You?

Raspberry, Bananas, Vanilla Ice Cream, Walnuts, And Chocolate Sauce.

Its like a food orgasm. 

Then we had an Easter egg hunt, and I am still looking for one egg of mine.

Egg hunting.

I don't really know what to say except, this might just be my first ever "Easter". 

I never did anything special during Easter before and it used to just be another vacation, so it was a really nice change for once. Guess I should be quite thankful, I got invited? :)

More pictures to follow tomorrow :)

Kinda tired now, got to catch up on some sleep lovelies.

265. Skiing, or attempts

Yeah, most of my attempts are of me, falling.

No really, every turn, every corner.

Well fine, I am not that horrible (or I would like to believe). I did make it down once or twice without falling!

But, relatively quite a klutz.

"Thats me going, Stop taking pictures! You silly boy! 

I want nice ones!" 

But oh well... Haha!

It is awesome fun anyways!

I really did have a lot of fun. Like all things in life, if you fall, stand up, and try again.

Try it till it kills you, I guess. :)

Personally I cannot imagine myself, actually liking doing it, but skiing is definitely growing on me. 

I can see how if one can ski, it can probably be quite fun :)

Unfortunately, skiing season is starting to come to an end. Maybe i'll try again next year.

Or maybe, Magnarpie.. want to go again, say... tomorrow?

253. Resignation

So, we have decided that the best thing for me to do to one of my jobs is to resign. Hrmph, that didn't last so long, but it was really fun while it lasted. I learnt and gained a bit more. 

But ultimately it just wasn't worth while. 

It is just not worth it because the woman I work for (so to speak) is always on medical leave. And it has been 2 months in a row now that she has been sick. So that is 2 months of set aside time without being paid. That also means, in the past 2 months I could have made about 10,000 NOK (RM 6000) before taxes but I made nothing.

I just believe there are a whole lot more thing I can do with my time, and if I had known earlier this was going to be the case, I could have taken my course in Entrepreneurship. I had to give that up because I knew I had to work.

So in many ways, I am bit annoyed?

Mhmm. So yeah, uncle and aunt agreed as they usually pay my bills for me anyways and I don't really have any bills of my own ever. So as long as I can get another job soon, I will be okay. I just have to eat out less and shop less. And I guess that is both a manageable task? I guess I will just have to ask for more pocket money. :)

Oh, that and I do also have another job with another commune, that is probably the best job in the world. Only it doesn't allocate that much hours. :) But it is honestly the best job one could have!

So, pfft. Now I got to figure out how to write my bitter resignation letter.

224. Sheer

I bought a bunch of sheer clothing pieces last summer and this summer but never actually had the opportunity to wear them! 

I guess I was a bit shy to wear them out and those impulsive buys were just stuff I liked but I didn't know how to pull it off and thus risk looking like a complete hooker.

But look what is on the Runway this season! Dior, Fendi, D&G, etc etc are all putting out sheer this season! And I love it.

Fendi SS '10

Christian Dior SS '10

Diesel AW '10

And Paris Fashion week is not till next week! :)

I cant wait to see what more new things will be "in season" and if they are things I already have in my wardrobe!

Picture source : Various. Mainly Google

So, what do you say ladies. 

Are you a yay or nay for see through/lingerie thinggymajiggy?

Another note to self : Invest in some new underwear!

221. I blog too much

I was probably showing you what was in the package I got from Magnar

You know, I am so good at guessing presents, its not so much fun anymore. Hrmph.

That and it was just kinda obvious what it was. Haha! 

Oh Look! New dress! Got it yesterday! 

All these are me "meng-gatal-ing". As usual.

Right, my dress! Its way too large so I have decided to use as a wrap dress. Fml.

And yes, the dress is a bit sheer even for me :)

But that okay, I am into the sheer thing lately!

This is me scratching an itch! And don't have any better caption.

This me me heading off to Oslo now! Ta!
