One Night With Chester
When we got back to Virginia - after 8 hours on a train - we met a very wet and very unhappy kitten. He was apparently lonely after one week without his family and wouldn't stop meowing. He is stil...
Enjoying Summer
It has finally stopped raining! I've spent all morning laying outside reading in the sun. Andy's backyard is green and gorgeous, and it has definitely started feeling like summer. I would still be ...
Chester
Ever since I took Chester's place on the couch he's been lying on this table keeping an eye on me. Every time I lean back he'll rub his head against me, and every time I pat him he starts purring a...
Video Game Time

Easter?

Farmville Addict?
Wow.. I have to admit that I play farmville regularly myself, but apparently someone takes it more seriously than others. I'm completely shocked after reading this news update: LINK. Here is the ex...

Optimistic
I'm being optimistic, and listening to Norwegian summer songs while getting ready to go out. It's supposed to be 68 degrees F (20 degrees C) outside, so it's at least spring temperatures. I'm still...
Spring!
Today it's been slightly warmer outside than it is inside the school buildings. I'm going to take that as a sign that spring is finally here - and I really hope the cold is gone for good. It actual...

With red nail polish and red shoes, I think I'm ready for Valentine's day to get here. I still have no idea which dress to wear, but I care more about the details anyway. And now I'm going to the m...

Shopping?
Hmm, I think I need to go shopping again. I have a bunch of both shoes and clothes that I love, but it just doesn't all go together. Like last night. I had a black top that I love, and my new pair ...
The Social Network
I was really craving nachos last night, so Andy was going to take me out to a Mexican restaurant to get some. On the way there we remembered that we never got around to seeing "the social network" ...
I Love My Nails
This is what I do when I'm bored. I watch desperate housewives and fix my nails. This is my fourth new color in a week and a half. Definitely too pink for my taste, but somehow I still like it. I'v...
Cats
I just felt like this deserved a post. It still makes me laugh.
And it also reminded me of this post: http://trinemarie.blogg.no/1290802328_strange_chester.html
Only Slightly Productive
This day was supposed to be completely dedicated to homework. But it didn't quite work out that way. However, I did get a few things done.
Backed up and organized all my pictures on my external ...
Optimistic?
Ah. I can't keep myself out of the "summer section" of online stores. I keep looking at bikini's, tops, dresses, shorts, and skirts. All the things I can't wear yet. I get just as disappointed ever...
Sara Bareilles
This is the song that is helping me wake up right now. I actually haven't been able to get it out of my head all January.

I'm sitting here reading about ideas for my best friends bachelorette party, and it kills me that I can't discuss it with her or post things about it online (seeing as she reads my blog). As excite...

Bad Girls Club
Bad Girls Club must be the most meaningless tv show there is. But I still love it. There is absolutely no point to it other than being entertaining. They get a hold of a bunch of stupid, and prefer...

Hug A Norwegian
Well, it's no longer the 22nd in Norway, but it's still "Hug a Norwegian Day" in the US! Haha, there are events for all types of days on facebook now. One weirder than the other.
Is There Something To It?
So, I'm in no way superstitious, and I don't believe in karma, fate, or zodiac signs. But I do still think it's fun to read them (the last one that is). I'm a scorpio, and it's strange how many of ...
Day 29
