Happy birthday little sis!

Well today is my little sister Elin’s 20th birthday! I wish I could be there with her, but even though we are in the same country, we are still a couple of hours away by plane. So here’s to you sis! Hope you have a wonderful birthday!

Oh, another little thing happened today. I got offered a job here in Oslo! They called me this morning to let me know they are offering me a full position at their company. I think I was in shock, because I don’t remember all the details, haha. But I was clear enough to ask if I could have a couple of days to think about it because tomorrow I will have a phone interview with another job which is located in Manchester, England. If I get that job as well, I don’t know what I will do. I have to make a list of pros and cons I guess. Anyway, there’s no pressure on me for that phone interview now, because no matter what I have a great job!

I’m looking so much forward to this weekend, my birthday is May 7th, but May 5th I will go out and celebrate my 30th birthday. It will be great! The funny thing is that my friend’s girlfriend is also 30 on May 7th so it will be a double birthday party! Well if this post is overly positive, it’s because I am extremely happy right now. I’m flying over here. It’s funny, but if I hadn’t got a thought last year about going to China I would have never been so happy today. It’s a funny world, hehe.

Tomorrow is the day…

Today when I woke up I felt like I had a potato stuck down my throat. I couldn’t speak either, as I had no voice. However, thanks to some German medicine I have successfully recovered my voice and the potato is gone.

So tomorrow is the big day. It was supposed to be the most important day in my life, the happiest day in my life. I am of course talking about the marriage between me and Amy. Instead it will be just another day. It’s sad that it turned out the way it did. I won’t lie and say I am not disappointed in her decision. I’ve debated with myself whether I want to remove all of our past, like deleting parts of the 360 blog but I’ve decided to keep it all because that was real, this is who I am. She deleted our past from the day she broke up with me. I don’t blame her, it’s her decision. Life goes on, and what happened is part of my life, its part of who I am so I will not delete it.

Facebook is pretty cool. I decided to put up a profile there a while ago, and yesterday I was contacted by two people from my past. One who I worked with as a graphics designer in Ålesund and one I went to a course with in Tromsø. I decided to do a search for people in my past, and almost everyone is there. It seems that it is the place to be, although I read in the newspaper the other day that all this networking business is making people sick. I am not there much though, I just get e-mails whenever someone sends me a message or something like that.

Hope everyone is doing well.

A normal Saturday…


This morning I woke up at 8am. I said goodbye to my aunt and uncle who were going to drive to a summer house in Sweden for the weekend. Then I went to my computer and checked my mails, nothing special. Then I checked some friend’s blogs and I got to do this quiz. A couple of the questions was about whether I missed someone right now and then it just hit me instantly. Ying! OMG I miss her. It’s weird because she’s in Taiwan and we have never met, but at that moment I felt so incredibly close to her. I even got teary eyed. I wanted to her to be here so I could give her a hug. Later in the day I met her online and told her that. She was very surprised and missed me too. In February next year she and her fiancée might come to Austria for vacation. I hope to be able to meet her in person then.

I happened to reboot my computer today for the first time in a long time. Big mistake! After I got it up again, there was no way to get my wireless connection up and running again. There was something about a service that was broken. I did a virus check and spyware check and found a couple of things, but I wasn’t able to fix it. Luckily I had another hard disk for this laptop. Unfortunately I have spent the better part of the day uninstalling and re-installing. Boooooooooooring.

Well it’s weekend, and I have the whole house to myself. Don’t know what I’ll do, but whatever it is I know I will enjoy myself. Hope you all have a great weekend!
