"Chesh", in lack of inspiration for a better title.

I suppose you're expecting a post containing 8 ways to win my heart. As I have no heart, I'm saving that for a different time, when I may have acquired one.

(I know just which illustrating picture I want to use here, but google is not very helpful right now. That's why you get a random picture of Chesh darling)

Moving on.

I have all of 4 almost full days left in the US. I didn't quite realize this until I dropped off my brother and Silje at the airport, leaving me to be the next one to go home. But this is home. Oh, I'm so confused at the moment. And I feel strange. I have been planning and thinking about this year of my life ever since I was 12. And now it's almost over. I guess it feels strange because I feel so old now.
No matter how I feel about it, the final question still remains: Just how do you pack an entire room into two suitcases and a carry-on?

At this speed, my "10-day challenge" will be done by November.

Aaand here goes day two. I'll change the name to a 10-post challenge btw, as that suits my nearly non-existing blogging habits better. And they may not come in the right order. Or even right after each other. Just so we're clear.

So I guess I'll tell you nine things about myself. There's a fancy bonus for anyone who knew at least eight out of the nine! Now that you're all excited, let's commence.

1: When I was young (6ish), I wanted to become a firefighter (Very important detail: I changed the profession to branndame, instead of the sexist word brannmann.)
2: I procrastinate. A lot.
3: I have more than 10 rubber duckies in my room. I haven't bought any of them, they just show up now and then.
4: If you're ever wondering where to find me at 4 AM on a clear summer night, chances are I'll be right here:

5: My favorite non-Harry Potter fictional character is Dustfinger, from the Inkheart series.
6: I prefer the sunrise to the sunset. I also prefer night to day.
7: I adore ice skating, though I can't even skate in a straight line.
8: If I could have one magical power, it would be the ability to fly. I wouldn't care if I had to carry around large wings on my back, I just want to fly.
9: I have no clue what to do with my life after my next year of school.

Now I'm sure you feel like you know me all that much better. These weren't exactly dark secrets or anything, I'm not sure what you expected. Let's add a few things I know you don't know, unless you've been stalking me desperately for the last week.
1: I just saw the Mars Volta live, and my life is quite a bit closer to being complete.
2: Right now I'm playing my newest Manchester Orchestra cd on repeat. Which I've done for a week now, along with Thrice.
3: I need the charm Hermione used on her handbag for my suitcase, or else I'm never getting all this stuff back to Norway. (If you instantly knew what I'm talking about, whoever you are,wherever you are, I love you.)
