21 and invincible.

I feel I have to comment on this really day I had … tuesday..
it was totally amazing because the day was so incredibly sunny. the leaves were so yellow and the sky so blue that it seemed like a photoshopped landscape (as proven here). In the morning it was nicely cold – the grass was shining with dew.

I went to the public library – which is one of my favorite places in Bergen – to return my book, then I went to the record store and bought this, which made me happy. Just because.

I hung out with a bunch of cats by the church, met Ana and Stefan for lunch and then tried to find a pair of jeans for an acceptable price. yes, because I don’t know if holes in my jeans right at the crotch are a good idea…

so here are my Fretex-findings

a bee sweater!

jeans!

of course my day wouldn’t have been perfect without this:

someone’s gonna be making muffins soon…..

it’s monday and raining.

okay, so today is not monday.
but Bergen is back in rainy mode…unlike two days ago.

this is what a perfect autumn should feel like..

Eurotrip.

This is a really awful movie.
It does help to cheer you up though, when things are a little awkward or not so great. I watched it tonight with my wonderful flatmate Ana and we laughed at every silly little joke :)
(Borat was our original pick… I guess that’s for next time.)

things to look forward to this week:

(almost) NO CLASSES
special phone calls :)
I’m making cinnamon rolls!
dinner with stefan and ana tomorrow
getting new books from the public library.
The Murder Mystery EP+ shirt being shipped to my doorstep
getting that new phone number thing sorted out, seriously

socklifters of the world, unite.

Norway is expensive (as I have previously mentioned and re-mentioned), so I am now buying socks from the H&M children department – believe it or not, the clothes are cheaper. I am now the proud owner of FIVE pairs of striped socks. it makes me look rather indie.

look at me, I’m indie!

[note: the title of this post is obviously NOT a reference to the smiths.]

last nite (she said, oh baby I feel so down)

fantastic.
I went to see Kings of Convenience at Hulen (there’s a review and a few photos here) and I got my picture taken with the guy who accompanied them on the bass, not because I am a celebrity person, but simply because he was making the funniest faces in the world so Essie and I laughed the whole gig through.

he looks like a psycho!

on our way back we saw the cutest hedgehog in the WORLD. at first the girls thought it was a rat, until I said,
wait, it’s a little too slow to be a rat

I rushed towards it to take a picture and I wanted to take it home SO bad.

why doesn’t everyone look like a hedgehog? the world would be a better place…

oh and here’s a picture of my first ever club stamp in Norway.
celebration.

last-minute icing

Saturday night we celebrated baby-Etienne’s birthday.
we got him an awesome balloon that Hiroki couldn’t help but start playing with straight away. (I think his biggest dream is to join Cirque du Soleil.)
