That's why they call them business socks!

Right now I'm in English class, we're watching a documentary, "Belfast Girls" or something. Of course it's most interesting, that's why I'm writing this.
"Girls who have their hair loose are protestants, don't you think?" That's kinda sad. Suppose everyone in.. Ardoyne? would think I'm a protestant then, since I always have my hair loose.

Awrr. I think I'm gonna sleep now. I slept for almost 8 hours last night, which is highly unusual, but I'm still tired. Damn. 'Night!

Chemistry

I'm posting this from my phone, it's a kinda cool app. I'm in chemistry, want to guess what we're doing?

Again-

Time: 03:32 AM
Location: My bed.
Status: Not tired, and should start on tomorrow's French-presentation.
Time until the day starts: 1 hour and 28 minutes.

How come I have so many posts about myself not being able to sleep? Gotta be kinda boring to read. Well I need something to do. And besides, I'm not forcing you.

Random picture of the day/night/whatever:Can't believe this was taken just some years back. Karoline and me, should you wonder. On a bus, heading towards Trondheim with our class and quite a few other people.

And now: French. Or sleep. Or getting ready for school, whichever comes first.

Chocolate Chip Cookies

The real, the original, the authentic Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup (2 sticks, 1/2 pound) butter, softened

3/4 cup granulated [white] sugar

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 eggs

2 cups (12-ounce package) Nestle Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels (or just normal chocolate, like Norwegian melkesjokolade <3

(you can add nuts, but.. don't.)

COMBINE flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla in large mixer bowl. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition; gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.

BAKE in preheated 375-degree [Fahrenheit] oven for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

PAN COOKIE VARIATION: PREPARE dough as above. Spread into greased 15"x10" jelly-roll pan. Bake in preheated 375-degree [Fahrenheit] oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in pan on wire rack.

FOR HIGH ALTITUDE BAKING (>5,200 feet): INCREASE flour to 2 1/2 cups; add 2 teaspoonfuls water with flour; reduce both granulated sugar and brown sugar to 2/3 cup each. Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit, drop cookies for 8 to 10 minutes and pan cookies for 17 to 19 minutes.

Awesome recipe. Time to make cookies, people! :D

Binary solo!

I love it. : D

I do sincerely believe I've got some kind of sleeping-disorder.

Sleep, oh most dearest colorful dreams of rainbows and badguy run-aways, where have you hidden?

Night blog

Once again, I can't sleep. Not that I've tried a lot tonight though. The moment I turn off my computer, I have to read for my social studies test tomorrow, which I, of course, don't want to do. So, I'm still here.

This weekend I've been visiting Siri (The cute/scary creature in the picture below) in Fiksdal, which is a place even smaller than the postcard-pretty-stamp-sized-town I live in. Yeah, imagine that. It's beautiful though. And I like it there. It reminds me of endless summers, childhood and Harry Potter. Ah, good times, grand times.

And I've been listening to Death Cab For Cutie the whole day/night. They have beautiful songs. Right now I'm listening to "Cath..". One of my favorites is probably Transatlanticism. The lyrics, ahh. And since I'm secretly a masochist (before I posted this where anyone, anywhere can read it, that is), I'm topping it all with Incubus - I miss you. If you didn't get that, you're not supposed to.

Now I need to read. Awrr. Wish me luck, fine gentlemen.
What I want to read versus what I should read. Hum.

Family pictures

Just some family pictures. Me, Dad, Farfar, Alex and Nils (my two cousins).
Stole them from Alex's facebook (sorry Alex, if you ever happen to read this), that's why the great facebook-quality. Mostly posted because Julie wanted to see a picture where I look strange/normal, aka picture nr. 2.

Well, g'night! :D (Not quite yet, but soon probably)

Please tell me this is the end of the world

Alexisonfire - We are the end

Randomness of the day, and other stuff.

I guess if you've seen this, you've also seen the new "randomness of the day". It should really be named "Randomness of whenever I feel like writing (or copy/pasting) something random". But that's just not quite as catchy. So "Randomness of the day" it is.

Soo.. You'll probably never get the long "in the US" post. Partly because it'd be boring with this enormous post, partly because you know the most vital parts, partly because I'm lazy. It would have been easier if I just wrote while I was there. But again: I'm lazy.

Random picture from Times square :D

But I promise I'll write next year. While I'm living in the US. With my dad. (If you're still interested in reading. And if not; I'll just write anyway. For my imaginary friends to read) I still can't believe how that happened, I thought it impossible. But yes, I'm living with my dad and my stepmother next year. So I'll be attending Nashoba Regional High School, in Bolton. If that says you anything :)

And yeah, I'm starting at a new school, completely friendless. I can't wait. Anyone in Bolton/Stow/Lancaster reading this who'll be my friend?:D No..? Damn.

This post turned out pretty long anyway. Hum.

Classrom blog

So I never wrote when I got to Stow. In fact, I didn't even go to Stow. I went to my farfar's and stayed the night. So I'm excused.
Right now I'm watching the rest of my class taking a test I'm having next Monday, because of jetlag and stuff. And because I didn't read. And because I'd rather sleep than read. You (most likely) know me.
So I'll write an update from my awesome trip to the US later today or tomorrow. Soon, anyway.
Just quick updates, until you get the whole story:
*I'm living with my dad next year.
*Christmas was completely fantastic.
*I went to New York.
*I've been downhill-skiing in Maine, and I survived!
*I ate. Food. Normal food.
*New Year's Eve requires fireworks.
*The Phantom Of The Opera on Broadway. Oh. My. God.

-Tata-bata for now! :D

Starbucks

Just a very quick update. I'm in NY, on my way home to Stow today, in a few hours. I promise I'll write when I get there. Here's a picture for now:

Didn't have time to turn it around, but you get the idea.
