December 29 Casual thoughts in a busy weekChristmas has been perfect so far! Christmas eve Frode and I celebrated at my mum's house, with my sisters, my mum and Bjørnulf. It was wonderful. I got loads of nice gifts. Thank you, everybody! And of cuz, Frode loved the gift he got from me; Xbox 360. Ah, I just love it when things live up to my expectations.
Tomorrow we're having dinner guests, gonna make some christmas food that we've never made before, so that'll be fun.
Grr, I've started to censor what I'm writing really hard. I don't write anything sensitive or emotional anymore at all. Why? Because I read an article where it said that potential employers google potential employers to get a better impression of them and what they're up to. I really don't want a potential employer to google me someday and find this space filled with my personal thoughts and opinions about absolutely everything. They'd get a horrible impression of me and just drop every thought they had about employing me... so my space is just turning into some impersonal diary where I'm summing up my doings but rarely write my thoughts. I hate it.
I should have just had an anonymous blog, so that I could be really personal without worrying about stuff like that. But then the point'd be gone... then I couldn't tell anyone I know about it. Ah, well, I guess I just have to stick with this and decide to just be personal and take the consequences when that time comes. If it ever... I'm probably just being paranoid.
Well (I use that word way to often), I should stop writing now... have to go to bed so I'll be ready for that dinner thing and other fun stuff tomorrow. I'm keeping really strange hours nowadays, and it just keeps on getting worse. The more I sleep, the more tired I get. It's an evil circle.
Good night, my loyal readers!
Sayonara,
vesle H December 23 Justin Timberlake: Futuresex/lovesoundsI dag fikk jeg fine, fine albumet til Justin Timberlake i kalenderen min! Søte, snille Frode-gutten min; jeg er helt sikker på at gavekalenderen min er den fineste noen noen gang har fått! Hah, tenker nok dere andre skulle ønske dere hadde en kjæreste som Frode, ja!
Julaften er rett rundt hjørnet og julestemninga står i taket her hos oss, i alle fall. Frode gjorde siste finpuss i leiligheten vår i dag, og jeg var hos mamma og pynta juletre sammen med Andrine, hjalp til med rydding og vasking og pynting rundt om i huset, og så spiste vi alle grøt med mandel i. Andrine fikk mandelen. Helt greit for meg, siden premien var en marsipangris og jeg ikke liker marsipan. Etterpå gomla vi kakemenn, krumkaker og andre godsaker, mens vi så på Grevinnen og Hovmesteren. Deilig dag!
Nå er det snart på tide for meg å komme meg i seng, så jeg er uthvilt og klar for en lang, spennende og herlig tradisjonsrik dag i morgen.
God jul, alle sammen!

Jule-Hildur December 22 Fire After Eight-sjokoladenisserNi dager siden siste innlegg og en evighet siden forrige innlegg på norsk. Så nå er det jammen på tide med et blogginnlegg på norsk her, dere!
Joda, jeg har altså vært på tur. 14. desember satte vi oss i bilen og kjørte mot Oslo. Med meg hadde jeg en pakke jeg ikke fikk åpne før etter 30 minutter i bilen, så jeg satte tidsuret på 30 minutter og venta spent mens klokka telte ned. Rett før jeg fikk lov til å åpne gaven, svingte Frode og kjørte mot Sarpsborg. Og så rev jeg av papiret og avslørte en reiseguide for Stockholm. Jeg ble kjempeglad, for jeg ville veldig gjerne på førjulstur dit, og var litt trist for at det ikke ble noe av, også ble det noe av likevel! *Veldig glad*
Meeen; det var en konvolutt til! Det var gaven for 14. desember, og jeg fikk ikke lov til å åpne den før Frode sa ifra. Så, på kvelden, på en parkeringsplass utenfor en IKEA et par timer fra Stockholm, fikke jeg endelig lov til å åpne konvolutten. Og vet dere hva jeg finner? Joda; jeg finner flybilletter til Gdans, som ligger i Polen. Jeg ble helt satt ut og selvfølgelig veldig, veldig glad. Hvem ville ikke blitt det?
Vi sov i bilen på langtidsparkeringa på flyplassen Skavsta, litt over en time fra Stockholm, og tok flyet til Gdansk på morgenen den 15. desember. Vi var i Gdansk i to netter og hadde det vidunderlig. Shopping, to kinoturer, god mat og bare kos og herlighet. Kan det bli bedre? Tror ikke det! Vi bodde på et koselig pensjonat like utafor sentrum og alt var bare luksus. Litt kjipt at de fleste polakker ikke er spesielt stødige i engelsk, så å orientere seg rundt der nede var ikke bare lett:
1. eksempel: Da vi kom på bussen fra flyplassen til byen hadde vil nettopp tatt ut penger, så vi hadde bare fem polske hundrelapper. Bussjåføren ville ikke ta imot hundrelappen da vi prøvde å betale. Han kunne ikke engelsk og snakka derfor konsekvent polsk til oss, og etter hvert skrev han ned prisen for at vi skulle forstå. Billettene kosta noe sånt som 12.60, og vi hadde jo bare hundrelappen og prøvde å gi han den. Men neida, han ble bare sur og husja oss videre inn i bussen. Pinlig, men hei; gratis busstur på oss!
2. eksempel: Vi sto på stasjonen i byen og skulle videre til pensjonatet. Ingen av oss hadde vært i Polen før og ingen av oss kan polsk. All informasjon var på polsk. Heldigvis hadde vi med oss adresse, veibeskrivelse og overskikt over hvilke busser vi kunne ta. Det sto også hva det ville koste å ta taxi dit og at pensjonatet selv anbefalte taxiselskapet Neptune. Vi prøvde altså å få tak i en taxi fra Neptune. Ingen sånne var i nærheten for øyeblikket, så vi oppsøkte en taxisjåfør som ikke kjørte for noe spesielt selskap og viste han adressa til pensjonatet. Han visste tydeligvis ikke hvor det var og tok alle papirene våre og begynte å fare rundt til andre taxier. Etter veldig mye om og men kom han tilbake og trakk en tjuelapp opp av lomma og vifta med den og nikka. Vi skjønte ingenting, og Frode forsøkte å spørre, på engelsk så klart, om sjåføren kunne kjøre oss til pensjonatet for en tjuelapp. Sjåføren nikka, vifta med tjuelappen og skrev 801 i møkka på bakruta på taxien sin og viste oss hvor man kan kjøpe bussbilletter. Hallo, fint du har skjønt hvem du lever av, kompis.
Har flere eksempler på lur, bare å spørre. Men uansett, Polen var supert. Fikk meg nye, fancy støvletter, nytt skjørt og et par nye topper. Vi var på kino også, siden de heldigvis hadde klart å styre seg fra å dubbe kinofilmer (de dubber jo ALT på TV, med en monoton herrestemme. Litt sånn Tre nøtter til Askepot-aktig).
På morgenen 17. desember tok vi flyet tilbake til Skavsta og kjørte til hotellet vårt et lite stykke utafor sentrum av Stockholm. Det var et Ibis-hotell. Vi har bodd på Ibis før, i Karlstad, så det var derfor Frode booka rom der. Så dro vi inn til Stockholm og gikk i butikker og nøt livet i storbyen. Spiste på McDonald's gjorde vi også. På kvelden var vil helt slått ut og dro hjem og så på film, Notting Hill, på TVen på hotellet. Der gikk det ikke an å få lyden høyere enn 50 %, fordi det var sperra så vi ikke skulle forstyrre de andre gjestene. Frode sovna, mens jeg så ferdig filmen og skrev på presentasjonen min, som jeg skulle ha for Lions Club Sarpsborg tirsdag 19. desember. Så mista jeg pennen min bak enkelsenga (her var en dobbelseng og en enkelseng). Det var lettere å trekke senga ut enn å krype under den, så jeg gjorde det... ikke bra! Under der var det et tjukt lager med støv og et brukt barberblad.
Jeg HATER andres dritt. Min egen takler jeg, jeg vet hvor den kommer fra, for å si det sånn, men andres... nei, skyt meg. Så jeg frika ut. Vekka Frode og la ut om hvordan dette ikke går an og tok helt av. Jeg sjekka resten av rommet og konkluderte med at det ikke kan ha blitt støvsuget eller vaska ordentlig. Til slutt gikk jeg til nattevakta i resepsjonen og klagde på at rommet var skittent. Nattevakta kunne ikke svensk, så nå tok vi det på engelsk (jjaja, heldigvis kunne han det da), og han var snar med på tilby oss et annet rom. Jeg takka nei til dette tilbudet av flere grunner; klokka var midnatt, vi var slitne, vi hadde pakka ut, Frode hadde lagt seg og jeg trodde ikke at det var stor sannsynlighet for at naborommet skulle være noe renere; det var jo samme dama som hadde "vaska" begge. Ironisk nok hadde vaskedama på seg munnbind (vi så ho da vi ankom hotellet), så det så jo ut som om ho anstrengte seg skikkelig. Haha, kyss meg bak. Jeg skal ikke bo på et Ibis-hotell igjen. Han skulle tilbudt meg reduksjon i prisen.
Mandag kosa vi oss i Stockholm hele dagen, så kjørte vi i timevis hjem til Norge.
Åååh, jeg har så mye å skrive om! Denne uka har vært hektisk. Selv om vi var tidlig ute med å gjøre ferdig julegaveghandlinga, har det vært masse annet å ta seg av. På tirsdag brukte jeg hele dagen på å forberede meg til presentasjonen på kvelden. Selve presentasjonen gikk forresten kjempebra! Deilig!
Uff, nå har jeg brukt altfor lang tid på å sitte her og skrive. Må tilbake til juletrepyntinga! Frode er på jobb i kveld, så det ble opp til meg å pynte det nyinnkjøpte, 180 cm høye, falske juletreet vårt. Frode satt på lysa, jeg ordner resten. Det ser faktisk veldig bra ut så langt! Først måtte jeg sette tråd på cirka 100 IKEA-julekuler. Jeg begynte å sette på sytråd på dem, men da jeg hadde kommet halvveis oppdaga jeg at det fulgte med fin sølvtråd og gulltråd, så da måtte jeg begynne på nytt. Jaja, det var verdt det. All IKEA-pynten ble hengt på treet, og så kom jeg på at jeg hadde glemt å henge på glitteret. Så jeg hang på det og noen av kulene falt ned. Ikke så farlig, da de er av plast. Genialt og veldig barne-/Hildur-vennlig.
Så kom turen til Frodes julekuler. De er ikke spesielt barnevennlige, da de er av glass. Foreløpig har to av dem knust, en rød og en blå. Altså, det var IKKE min skyld! Det var tråden deres som røk. Ja, jeg holdt dem, men jeg kunne da vel ikke foutse at trådene skulle ryke? Ja, nå må jeg tilbake og gjøre ferdig juletrepyntinga og feie opp restene av den blå kula. I morgen skal jeg pynte tre hos mamma, og sikkert ufrivillig ta knekken på noen av kulene der også.
I går var jeg og besøkte pappa og Andrine og utveksla gaver, spiste middag og bare kosa meg. Vi hadde det kjempekoselig! Tror pappa ble fornøyd med de fine gavene han fikk av Andrine og meg. Jeg ble hvert fall fornøyd med bøkene jeg fikk av han!
Dette ble langt. Jaja, sånn går det når man tar ni dagers bloggingpause! Jeg har mer å skrive om, både julerelatert og ikke julerelatert materiale. Men det får jeg nesten ta siden!
God jul, alle sammen!

Jule-Hildur December 13 A trip...... but I don't know where. We're leaving tomorrow, but I got no idea where we're going or how long we're going to stay away. I know we're back before Tuesday next week, though. This means that I probably won't have my space updated in a few days, which I'm sorry about, but think about it this way; it'll be so much more fun to read at my space when I get back, since I probably have a lot more to write about.
I've been out shopping christmas presents with my little sister today. We had a lot of fun and bought some really nice gifts. I made some really delicious dinner for us and for desert we had some of the wonderful chocolate cake I've baked. After Andrine went home I had such a bad head ache, seriously, it was killing me. So I just went to sleep, which lead to the fact that I haven't finished writing my presentation, which I should be done with by today since I'm giving it on Tuesday next week. I haven't packed either. This is so annoying! So I shouldn't really take the time to update here either... but I just felt like I had to, since I don't know when I'll be here again. For you who understand Norwegian and pop by here, I've put out the recipes from our christmas workshop. Enjoy!
OK, I'm going packing and picking out music for the trip tomorrow now. I have to clean Snøball's cage as well. She broke her running wheel a couple of days ago, so I bought a new, really cute pink and grey one today. It matches her cage and toilett perfectly.
I'll update as soon as I get the chance.

Jeg legger ut oppskriftene til kakene vi bakte på juleverkstedet her. De pepperkakene vi bakte som ikke var glutenfrie, bakte vi av ferdig pepperkakedeig fra Rema 1000 og IKEA. Den fra IKEA er helt vidunderlig god, forresten. For å være ekstra grei legger jeg ut oppskriften til den sjokoladekaka i verden som er desidert enklest å bake (bortsett fra de ferdigmikskakene, da), og som er kjempegod.
Oppskrifter:
Glutenfrie pepperkaker:
100 g smør
2 dl sukker
360 g Toro glutenfri fin kakemiks (det er 355 g i en pakke, men det holder fint. Husk å kjøpe to pakker, så du har noe å kjevle ut på også!)
4 ss mørk sirup
2 egg
2 ts hjortetakksalt
1 ts nellik
1 ts ingefær
2 ts kanel
Deigen bør lages et døgn før du skal bruke den og stå Smør og sukker røres hvitt (dette betyr at smøret ikke skal smeltes, men at du rører smør og sukker sammen LENGE, til sukkeret er "smelta" inn i smøret). Bland i de andre ingrediensene og rør til deigen er glatt. Avkjøl deigen i kjøleskap over natta. Deigen kjeveles ut på godt melet benk (melet som i masse glutenfri kakemiks, altså), og bruk gjerne silikonbakepapir til å kjevle ut på - det gjør alt så meget enklere. Trykk ut pepperkaker forma som menn, koner, hjerter, juletrær også videre.
Kakene stekes midt i ovnen i ca. 10 - 15 minutter ved 175 grader. Avkjøl på rist. Pynt gjerne med melis og Nonstop.
Kakemenn:
1 l mel
3 dl sukker
1 ts hjortetakksalt
2 dl melk
100 g smør
Det tørre blandes og røres sammen med smelta smør og melk. Dette kan ta litt tid, siden det er veldig mye tørt i forhold til vått. La gjerne deigen stå litt før du begynner å bake med den, da blir den litt fastere i fisken. Kjevl ut deigen til den er rundt 0,5 cm tjukk, og trykk ut kakemenn forma som menn, koner, hjerter, juletrær, stjerner, også videre, du tar poenget; kakemenn kan være forma som hva som helst.
Kakene stekes midt i ovnen på 20 grader i 6- 8 minutter. Legg kakene til avkjøling på rist, og etterpå maler du dem med rød og grønn konditorfarge.
Lussekatter:
Jaja, Lucia-dagen er snaaart over for denne gang, men man kan da vel bake lussekatter nå uansett, vel? Jeg går ikke utfra at folk har safran hjemme, da det ikke er så vanlig siden safran er et dyrt og sjeldent krydder, så derfor bruker vi kardemomme i denne oppskrifta i stedet for safran.
10 dl hvetemel
100 g sukker (ca. 1,1 dl)
0,5 ts kardemomme (sleng gjerne i en hel teskje, for ellers kan smaken bli litt tam. Dessuten er kardemomme er kjempegodt!)
100 g smør
3,5 dl melk
50 g gjr
1 egg
Egg til pensling
Rosiner til pynting
Smelt smøret og varm melka til ca. 37 grader (fingervarm). Ha oppi kardemommen. Rør ut gjær i melka. Bland alle ingrediensene og kna deigen til en smidig deig. La deigen heve til dobbel størrelse under lokk/håndkle, gjerne på et litt varmt sted. Kna deigen godt sammen og del den opp i passe små emner som formes i forskjellige figurer. Legg lussekattene på stekebrettet med bakepapir på, pynt dem med rosiner og la dem heve. Før du steker dem pensler du dem med egg tilsatt 2 ss vann.
Stekes midt i ovnen på 225 grader i 10 - 15 minutter.
Mislykka sjokoladekake:
Til denne trenger du en rund form som er ca. 22 - 24 cm i diameter.
4 egg
2 dl sukker
200 g kokesjokolade
200 g smør
2,5 dl mel
1 ts bakepulver
Til glasuren:
100 g kokesjokolade
1 ss appelsinjus
Pisk eggedosis av egg og sukker. Smelt sjokolade og smør sammen, og rør det inn i eggedosisen vekselvis med sammensiktet mel og bakepulver (jeg gidder vanligvis ikke å sikte de to sammen, og det funker helt fint likevel). Hell røra i en smurt og melstrødd form (jeg bruker formfett på min, men det spørs hva forma er lagd av, noen blir helt klissete og ødelagt av formfett).
Stekes i litt kortere enn 20 minutter ved 225 grader. Kaken skal ha en bløt kjerne, så kan være greit å følge med litt så den ikke steker for lenge.
Pyntmed en plate sjokolade som er smeltet i 2 ss appelsinjus. IKKE rør i sjokoladen før den er HELT myk. Her er det lurt å bruke vannbad, kan du si.
Jaja, da gjenstår det bare å si; ha en kjempegod julebakst, alle sammen! Lykke til! December 12 Julesjokolade fra Nidar, med hasselnøtter og mandlerHistory repeats itself. Yummy, yummy; chocolate! I'm lovin' it.
The job interview thingy today went really good, probably cuz of my new ankle boots. I should probably write a lot more right now, but I won't. I've forgotten to write more about the christmas workshop as well. Yeah yeah, I think the pictures speak for themselves, though. Maybe I should put the recipes we used out here?
Vi snakkes!
Vesle H December 11 Dove Intense Care Repairing ConditionerI got all I need to make my hair look beautiful now =)
I've bought new ankle boots today. They're super cute!
Some days ago I wrote about people who look down on me because I'm unemployed and who think I'm lazy. I keep on thinking about those people, and they annoy me more and more. I'm tired of people nagging on me and asking me about it. I understand that they're trying to show interest in what I'm up to, but I'm so sick of it. Just get it; I'll tell you right away when/if I get a job, until then; shut up about the whole thing! Everything seems to annoy me nowadays, I'm like an emotional rollercoaster. One minute I'm up and everything is great, the next I'm down and I hate my life. I'm sick of it.
Things need to change, but I don't know how. Right now things are mostly time, I got the christmas spirit and all, but still things suck... I just can't do anything right. Everything seems to go to hell whenever I interfere with it, if you know what I mean. I'm sorry about the self-pity and whining, I just need to get it out, and this is my space, after all. My life needs to change radically, cuz I'm sick of the quagmire I'm in now.
I'm off now, gonna go and comfort eat some of the chocolate cake I've baked today.

Hildur Four choco lolliesI got four chocolate lollies today! Yummy!
We had a wonderful christmas workshop today! I have to go to bed now, but I just had to tell you guys we had a great time tonight before I go to bed. I'll write more about it later, ok? Check out the pictures from the evening :-) Vi bakte pepperkaker (både vanlige og glutenfrie), kakemenn og lussekatter. Cathrine hadde sin første nærkontakt med lussekatter denne kvelden, noe vi satte stor pris på at vi fikk overvære.
Natta, folks!

Bakemester Hildur-pus December 10 Dove Intense Care Repairing ShampooYesterday, the 9th, I got a shampoo for dry or damaged hair. I'm impressed by the fact that Frode knows that my hair is dry and damaged... not so odd that he knows, maybe, since I mention it quite often. I haven't been to a hair dresser since the middle of July. That's a very long time to me, cuz usually I'm there every 6th week or so.
Last night my little sister and I went with my dad to the annual christmas dinner at his job. That was nice.
Today we're having a christmas workshopin our apartment. Basically, we're baking cakes, watching christmas movies and listening to christmas music. I'll tell you more about it later.
Have a good Sunday!

Hildur December 09 JuleskumJuleskum med sjokoladetrekk. Nam nam! Snart tom, selvsagt ;-)
I bought shoes today! You know, black pretty shoes to use when I wear dresses and other pretty clothes. I'm a bit sad, though, cuz my very beloved ankle boots said farewell yesterday. At least I think they did... the heeltap broke on the right one. Hopefully a shoemaker can fix them, but I still have to buy new ones, to use when I try to look like a responsible, adult woman... for instance when I'm going to job interviews and that kind of stuff. So, today I bought cute black shoes, which my dad has said he can give me money for next week. He's so great!
I have to buy some new ankle boots before Tuesday at 10 AM, though... it seems shabby to go to a job interview in trainers.
I also saw a movie today, with my dad and younger sister. We watched The Nativity Story. This is the movie the Pope refused to see, because Keisha Castle-Hughes, who plays Mary in the movie, is pregnant outside of marriage in real life. It seems like the Pope has some issues with separating professional and personal life. Many of the cardinals didn't have a problem with the movie, though, so they went to the premiere... I'm surprised that the Pope didn't stop them from going; "I'm telling you, cardinals, that Keisha girl that plays Mary, she's such a slut; she had sex before marriage, no way she can play the character of Mary convincing. And NO WAY you guys get to see that movie!".
Well, we didn't care what the Pope thinks, so we watched it. It was a quite good movie, showing the nativity story from Mary's point of view, sort of. At Sunday we're maybe having a small christmas workshop here, but I'm not sure. Would have been fun, though; baking cookies and cakes and decorate them. Yummy! I'll tell you more about it if it actually happens.
Good night, people!

December 08 Julesjokolade fra Nidar, med hasselnøtter og mandlerYummy, chocolate! I got a lot on my mind right now, but I don't care to write it... not sure if I want to or not. It has been a long day, maybe I'll tell you more about it some other time. Or maybe not.
I'm off now, sweet dreams!
Happy Holiday!
Hildur Pildur Ping December 07 Lesbian p*rn movieWell, yes, it is the 7th now, but to me its the 6th. Anyways, today I got a lesbian porn movie, with the amaxing title "Girl Camp 2004: Lesbian Fleshpots". I didn't really want to blog this, but I figured that it would be hypocritical not to write it here just because it's a bit embarrasing and weird to get a lesbian porn movie in your christmas calendar. Jeje, I'm happy about it, though! And no, I haven't really watched it yet, only seen the first two minutes. It's pretty long, 1 hour and 34 minutes, so I got entertainment for an entire evening here. Oh yeah!
I wonder what I'll get next, a vibrator, maybe? I sure could use one, though, since my last one stopped working after I lost it in the floor since I'm so clumsy. Come to think of it, I didn't really use it a lot for its purpose, just used it to vibrate on my arms and stuff because I liked how it tickled me. Haha, enough said about the subject, alright.
We've bought some christmas gifts today. Actually, we've done quite a lot christmas shopping lately. Still we're not done with all the gifts yet, but we're getting there. I wrapped ten, almosg elleven presents today, and I think we've done a pretty good job picking out gifts this year. And if the receivers don't agree when they're done opening their presents on christmas eve; jeje, it's the thought that counts, anyway.
Tomorrow I know what I'm getting in my calendar. But I'm not telling you guys until I've gotten it, because that would ruin all the fun, right. Before I go I should tell you that I've been admitted to a school in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, through Gateway College. I don't think I'm going, though, of several reasons: I'm not sure if I'm ready to go to another school just yet, and the school itself costs 33 000 NOK, which I don't really have, and I need money to pay rent and food and stuff like that as well, so I don't think I'll be going. But it was fun to at least get in, though. Would probably be fun to go there as well, my friend Lucía, who I met at camp last summer, lives in Mexico. She has been to Cancun, which is close to Playa del Carmen, and she says it's really great there. Well, we'll see, maybe I go, maybe I don't. I have such short time to decide and get the money and arrange with plane tickets and a place to live, so I don't know... I don't like stress.
Well, I'm off now... going to enjoy my new movie, haha, just kidding. Have a good night, everybody!

PS. The reason the title is called "Lesbian p*rn movie" is that it's not allowed to post "bad" words in the titles of these blogs. Certain words are banned by Microsoft, and I can't do anything about it. As if porn is such a bad word? Jeje, whatever, doesn't really matter that much to me. I've tried blogspot and I hated it, so I stick to my live spice. It's not good for my image and branding to change URL, page layout and stuff like that anyway, so... Enough said. Over and out.
December 06 GingersnapsToday I got gingersnaps. Yummy, yummy, yummy. We made lasagne with bacon for dinner and watched a movie.
Good night!
Hildur December 05 Body ScrubTechnically it's the 5th now, but to me it's still the 4th. Today I got a body scrub that smells orange and grapefruit. I hope Frode will enjoy my exfoliated skin and lovely smell when I've used it
 .I've spent the day watching a movie, eating too much chocolate and registered myself on different recruitment agencies. I've applied for a job as well. Not that I want that job, but I need a job, so it's time I start applying for jobs more active, you know.
To me it's totally fine to just hang out at home. I enjoy it. There are a few things that bother me, though:
I hope I never turn into a person that keeps on asking questions and nagging people about their personal choices in life. People like that are very, very annoying. I simply can't respect people that interfere so hard in other people's lives. Like, it's ok that people ask me why I quit and what I'm up to next, but when they start nagging and throw their expectations to me in my face, it freaks me out. It makes me feel like they look down at me or something. Hm, I didn't explain that very good, so you probably don't understand what I mean... anyways, it makes me feel like the way my life is now isn't good enough, that I should think it's not a good way to live. But I like my life the way it is, I enjoy to finally have some time of and do absolutely nothing. I need to stress down a bit and think. People think I'm lazy or whatever, and keep on nagging about what I should do; that give me a feeling of inferiority, and that annoys me; why should I feel bad because people don't respect my choices? They're the ones who should feel ashamed, not me; I made a choice and stick with it and am happy about it, why should I feel inferior about that? That's right, I shouldn't. That's why I'm stopping it right now. Yes, I'm unemployed and broke, but who gives a shit? Not me, anyways, and those who do got a serious problemsince they have to care so much about other people's choices. I would have understand it if I'd been doing drugs or something like that, but I'm not; I'm perfectly healthy and happy. Anyways, I'll let this rest now that I got it out of my system. I should go and clean Snøball's cage now. We keep on forgetting that. Kos og klem fra HB junior December 03 Chocolate Santa ClausI got a Chocolate Santa Clause today. Nothing left of it now though, cuz I ate it. Yummy!
Andrine and I baked brownies, and then we went and watched Happy Feet at the cinema in Fredrikstad. Great movie! Later Frode, Andrine and I made tacos and watched Cars on DVD. Pretty good movie as well.
We didn't decorate the gingersnap house, though, but I'll decorate it tomorrow or something. It's going to be beautiful, I just know it, hehe. Well, I could have written more, but I won't.
Over and out.
Hildur December 02 Coundown stearin candleToday I got a stearin candle that counts down for christmas, sort of, you know what I mean. Yesterday I got two chocolate calendars. I thought I would only get one, but I got two. Happy happy happy!
Yesterday Frode was at a Christmas dinner with one of his jobs, so I had Cathrine and Heidi over. Cathrine started work at 6 am this morning, so she couldn't get drunk and go out with us. But we had a few drinks, and then Cathrine went home while Heidi and I went out. We had a great time at Jonsen, the only club with age limit 18 in Fredrikstad. Before we went there we went to a really shabby pub, where Heidi got hit on by a weird guy who turned 18 yesterday. Cute.
We had loads of fun, though, and we ruled the dancefloor! Heidi tested out the new shoes she bought yesterday when we were out shopping. She got paid, yesterday, so she bought a beautiful pair of shoes, a cardigan and a jacket. It's fun to assist people in their shopping. I should so go for a career as a shopping assistant or something. Anyways, we ruled the dancefloor and got stuck with a few weirdoes, but who cares; wouldn't be half as much fun without them. I'd love to tell you more about the 18 year old footballer (as in soccer guy) we got stuck with for an hour and who dropped Heidi in the floor twice, but I have to go... Frode and I are making home made pizza and wathing The Godfather 2 and 3 tonight.
Have lovely evening!

Hildur Pildur December 01 The 1st of December!Finito! I just finished putting together my bulding kit gingersnap house. And I'm telling you; it wasn't that easy. At the box it says; "Anna's has done the boring job for you (...)". Well, NO, I don't think so. They've done the easy part of the job for me. Melting the sugar and put the house together without burning your fingers of and make the house look somehow presentable is NOT an easy job. But I manage to get through it without getting any injuries of a permantent character. I won't lie to you; the house looks a bit battered, but all together I'm pretty happy about it. I've never put together a gingersnap house before, and it doesn't look that bad concidering it's my first house. During the construction it was a near disaster when one of walls actually broke, and the roof kept onn falling of, which was very annoying. But I kept my calm and got though it by, for once, being a bit patient, keep my focus and doing my best to make a cute gingersnap house that Andrine and I can decorate on Sunday. I'm really proud of myself... so proud that I woke Frode up just to show him the house. I couldn't wait until the morning, in case the house decides to collapse during the night. I'll post a picture of the house really soon. In fact, I'll post more pictures from our christmas preliminaries. It's our first christmas in our common apartment, so it's exciting for us. When the morning comes it's time for me to open my first calendar gift. I'm really looking forward to it, even though I already know what's in it... I'll tell you tomorrow. From now on, I think, the title of my posts will be the thing I get in my calendar every day... as long as the thing I get isn't a bit shady, though. Before I started putting together the gingersnap house I wrote a letter to my previous employer. I had to turn them down when they offered me to work there for a few weeks, cuz they offered me too few (and too crappy) work days; it wouldn't give me much money, only ruin my tax refund next year and make my advent crappy. I don't mean to sound picky or spoiled, but that's the way it is. God knows I need a job, but I had to turn that job offer down. It would be a defeat for me to go back to that job. I used to work there before I went to Bodø, and of several reasons I'm not eager to go back there at all. So I wrote a letter and put my employee card, key card and key in the envelope. I don't have the guts to talk with them, I'm so through with them. Yes, I'm a sissy, but right now I couldn't care less. Some of you might think it's better to stand up and confront what's giving you the lump in you chest. I don't. At least not right now. Nowadays I feel forced into a corner, and I got no interest in or intention to visit or confront the ones who make me feel like this. I just want to get out of the corner as smooth as possible, without having to confront or being confronted by anyone. Since I started my blog it has been pretty shallow, but I've decided to tell a bit more about what's actually going on in my life, and none the less what's going on in my head, from now on... not just write superficial about what happens in my life, as I've mostly been doing here. Right now what goes on in my head is that I know that it's scrawny of me not to go and talk to my previous employers, but that if I do that I'll have to stand up for myself and be strong in a way I really don't feel like right now. The letter is taking the easy way out... at least it feels like that now. Hopefully they'll stop calling me after that... they call me everyday, but I don't answer the phone, since I'm afraid of what they're calling to talk about. And hopefully the case will be closed. Yes, I'm stupid and puerile, but aren't we all sometimes? I just want this out of my mind and life as soon as possible, so that I can go on and find a new job without having my previous job in the back of my head anymore. Hm... I got a lot more on my mind, but this text is pretty long already, so I'll write more later on and tell you all the first thing I got in my christmas calendar. Good morning, folks! December hugs from Hildur |
