Today Mila and I finally got started with our Vegas trip. We have been planning to go for weeks, but its not untill now that something is finally happening. Daniela, Julie, Dorina, Laurie, Steffi, Mila & me. So Mila and I biked all the way to budget car to book a car, which wasn't to expencive, so when we came home we booked the hotel room. We're staying at a hotel called Hilton. So I'm super excited, yey. I'm gonna bring by super sexy pink suitcase to Vegas baby. So that's the good part of the day!!

I'm trying to be optimistic, but its kind of hard when our hostmom just said Victoria couldn't sleep her after all. What the hell is that? First she says its okey, and thats she's welcome, and then suddenly; no she can't come, house is to full. Excuse me, she is sleeping in MY bed, and you won't even see her, we're not gonna stay at home. And if thats not bad enough she doesn't cook dinner anymore. I can't remember the last time I ate REAL dinner. When she finally makes something, its not really REAL dinner, if you know what I mean. Stuff you get full of. And when I ask for food its like, I didn't cook today, I'm so tired, you want noodlesoup? Noodlesoup is not FOOD. Dammit, I'm so upset right now. She haven't cooked ONCE this week. But at least she finally bought the bread and spread I've been talking about since I got here. So tomorrow when we're telling her about Vegas, we're gonna talk about the food problem. And another problem I have to solve is where to place my BFF. I need to talk to the school and hear if they can help me, since my hostfamily didn't keep their promise. Oh yes, I do hope they read this.

M'mmm, I miss food. Fish< 3

So since I started optimistic I'm gonna finisih it sort of optimistic. This afternoon/evening we went back to the school to watch "this is it", Michael Jacksons last "performance". It's so sad to think about that he died 12 hours after they taped it. But I have to say, he's the king of pop, he really is. He has an amazing voice, and the world really lost the best. After the movie the lady who arranged it gave away some stuff because we were there. I got a valentines thing, which was really cute.  And Lauri got MJ's autograph, I'm kinda jealus. She was lucky !! :)

Today I haven't done much, except for staying home with my roomie. Oh, I have to mention, I cooked fishballs in white saus for us. Didn't taste exactly like when I make it at home, but good enough. Norwegian food is the bomb. potatoes<3

Time for an update !

I know I've been pretty lazy with blogging lately, but I have been quite occupied. On Thursday we celebrated Daniela's birthday at this club in Long Beach, where Lil Jon or something preformed. I think he's sort of famous,


Lil Jon - Get Low

Dani liked her crone, and over all it was a fun evening. My group left 1am, because of school, but the music and the club was really good. But the girls, oh my god. I'm not sure if I will classify their dancing as dancing, it looks more like their doing something you should keep in the bed room in privacy.

Pictures from the evening:

Lena, me, Anja, Dorina and the birthday princess!

Yesterday we went to a BIG houseparty in Long Beach, but I didn't bring my camera, so I'll wait to see if some of the others upload something later.

&tonight Lars is having a party at his house, he also turned 21 this week, so it will be great. I just need to figure out what to wear!

Happy birthday Dani

We're gonna celebrate her birthday today at a club in Long Beach. Mila and I bought her a pretty crone she's gonna wear, and we brought cake for her at school today! Snickers cake, yum.

What is success?

Yesterday we talked about success in class, and what we think success is for us. Most my class agreed that success is to do whatever makes you happy, and reach your goals. So it made me think. Success is much the same as hapiness. Can you be successful without being happy. Maybe in your job, but is that really success for you then? I mean, its super to earn a lot of money, but is that success when it doesnt make you happy? Money can't buy you happiness, or love. Success can be money, and success can be family. It can be a lot of things, as long as you think its success.

So I was thinking, not only about success, but about my future. What do I wan't out of my life? Everyone want's to be successful and happy, but how are we gonna get there. I have really big problems trying to figure out what to do with my life, what to work with, and educate myself for. I have no idea, honestly. But my teacher said that scientists have studiet this for a while, and they are saying that our generation will have between 5 and 8 different carers. Not jobs, but carers. WoW. I mean, that's a lot. But I sort of agree. It's really hard to figure out what you wanna do with your life. So I think that next year I will take my last year of highschool, and see what happens. I don't have to make up my mind right now. I'm only 18, I will change my mind several times before I do whatever makes me happy.

awww.

I don't know what that is yet, but I will figure it out. But when I think about success in my life, I see family. Thats whats most important for me. Ofcourse I wan't a job, but I wan't a family. Thats the goal with my life. I wan't to get married to a man who loves me, and have kids, and teach them right and wrong. I wan't all that, but I'm afraid I wont be able to do that. Statistics says that children/people with divorced parents are in higher risk to get divorsed thatn others. My parents AND my grandparents are divorced. What does that say about me? I'm doomed. If I ever get married, my husband will eventually run away. But back to the point. For me success is love, family & kids. What is your view on success? What is success for you?


photoshoot at the beach

Yesterday we gathered the girls for a photoshoot at the beach. Well, some of the girls didn't make it, so we're probably gonna do it again, hopefully. Because we had so much fun, and the pictures are so great. Annveig did a wonderful job.

I'm still alive.....! Barely.

Just wanted to let you all know that I'm still alive. Barely, I almost died yesterday, but thank God I didn't. I've been quite busy lately. Thursday night we went to a club in Long Beach. It was fun, except for the part where the guys didn't understand the word "no". And yesterday.... I went to a bus party. I haven't been to one since last year, si I figured out it was a good idea to go again. It has arrived a lot of new students, so I thought it would be a good way to meet them, and make some new friends. Well, at least I think maybe I got some new friends, if they still wanna be friends after how weird I was yesterday, haha.

Anyway, the reason why I'm barely made it out with my life was that I fell down from a porch. I was being smart and sitting on the fence thing and leaned back. Not a good idea, at all. I fell like two meters down and landed on my back. My hand started to bleed, but I didn't really feel any pain at that moment. Some guys lifted me in the club again, and that was super embarrasing. Everyone was like "are you okey?". Yeees, leave me alooone. I can't belive I fell down from a porch, I'm so clumsy. So now my back and neck hurts. I woke up with mascara all over my face, and fully dressed. I bet my room mate got scared when she saw me this morning, I Looked TERIBLE.


My warrior wound !!!

So now I'm at coffee bean with Mila and Lori. Thining about doing my homework, but it's not relly tempting.. Maybe we're gonna go to the movies tonight. I'm NOT gonna go out clubbing today.


Yesterday before going out!

1 month left.

It's only one month left until my fantastic friends are coming to visit me. I'm super excited. YeY.

Alright. Today... wonderful day. OMG, so fucking much rain, its INSANE. It's pouring down like california never have seen rain. I don't like it. So after school, which was like at 11.30, I went to coffee bean with Anja, Nanda, Rozely, and Annveig. After sitting there and drinking hot chocolate Nanda and I went to the school for who knows how long, waiting for Eldrid to finish school so we could go to her place. The cutie cooked for us, and wow, it was really good! Jum. So now we are planning a trip to San Francisco, I'm excited. It will be fuuuuuuntime. I'm really looking forward to see the city, and the bridge and everything. And, yey, roadtrip with my fantastic dutch people!

And we listened to old favorite music, like Aqua, Maria Mena and Spice Girls. It was fun.


Every girl was a spice girl when I was smaller. I was Emma, ofcourse. Who were you?

I'm gonna teach you something new today, if you don't already know though. Did you know that the first meaning of "Gay" was Happy, and "Fuck" was to poke? * stop fucking me*  hahaha..

Anyway. My mom had great news for me. She's gonna order the ticket for visiting me here in LA today! And then....... She said that they are going to Vegas for a couple of days, whitout ME!! I have to stay here, and go to school. Dammit...... At least their coming. But still... :)

Memories...

Why is it that when you look back at pictures, you always looked better, and you wish you could still look the same? And then you'r thinking, why the hell did I complain? Dammit.. At the worst part is, that it continues every year. It feels like I always look back and was prettier, thinner, cuter or whatever. But memories are great. Right now I look forward to the summer, and festivals. I'm looking at some pictures of me and my friends from the coolest festival in Norway, ofcourse its Trænafestivalen I'm talking about. And ofcourse I'm gonna share my wonderful memories with you!

Look at her.

BFF

Best cousin and friend ever

Happy kid.

Are we really ready for this?

Yes, we are!

I even looked better here, then I do now. Depressing.

Hey Hey

Ohh, I miss summertime. I was tan, cute and I had fun. I miss that. And I miss my friends. It's nice to look back, and know that you have great friends, and you had a good time. And more good times to come!
