I think I blog more on here when I'm in Norway then in England. Kind of silly with this title. But I'm to buisy to think about it over there so I forget, and I guess that is a good thing?
Norway is cold. I don’t like it at all. I think Falmouth made me too confortable, 15 degrees in march is pretty abnormal in most of England I hear, but in Fal it has happened every year I've lived there. And stepping of the plane after an 11-hour journey to 2 degrees and wind was not fun. Since I got home I've been doing boring stuff like running errands and done work. Unfortunately my stupid Photoshop messed with me the other day and corrupted my file so I have a lot of catching up to do this week... I am hoping to at least get to leave the house on a couple of occasions though. I feel the need for coffee with norwegs. :)
I also have a lot of studying to do right now since I got an exciting new summer job with the archaeological museum in town. I'll be a summer guide at the iron age farm/museum, and there is a lot of readint theat needs to be done before my training next weekend. I'm super excited about it tough. It is the first job I've had in years that looks fun, and I'll be doing something I'm interested in while at the same time working with a group of people mainly my age and I get to be outside a lot. :D So fingers crossed for it being good. It does mean I'll probably miss my graduation though. Thanks FXU/UCF! (That’s sarcasm by the way. I am in no way thankful to them!)
Quick update on life in Fal:
Before I left it was warm, nice and sunny. So obviously I spent most of my time inside painting things and not going in to uni. Trying to get ready for New York while suffering from a massive art block was not fun. Sad times. There have been a few parties since the last update. Toras house did two, one rocky horror/Baywatch/pretty clothes party (or lesbian party as it has been named for unknown reasons) and a Lord of the Rings party. I had fun. :) I also learned that the Underground has the biggest selection of ciders I have seen in Fal. We also celebrated Bex's birthday before we left. Several times. Clearly the way to do it when you are turning OLD ;) We had a visitor form the cold north that week and we didn’t drink nearly as much as was planned. The week after we did a second gathering at the beach with some lovely free ale and stew that Bex made for us over the fire, followed by some enthusiastic singing.

I finished Bioshock, which was just as good as everyone has said it would be! Now I have withdrawal from shooting at stuff though. A large amount of Beyond Good and Evil isn’t really the same and mostly made me angry, even though that is pretty good too.
Silje and I also have an exciting new plan for our after uni lives. After the summer we are now planning on moving to Bristol. Which feels a lot less stressful then Brighton for some reason. It’s certainly a lot cheaper. And it's also kind of nice to stay on the west side of the country, because that's a lot closer to where a lot of people I know will be going after uni. It feels so weird to say that. After uni. The real world is a little worrying to be honest. But I get another family member in England next year though, so that is nice. Feels a little less far away from home. And she'll be in London, which isn't such a long journey from Bristol apparently. In Bristol I plan on having and awesome flat, and lots of fun. Oh and working I guess... Freelancing + conventioning craft stuff is my vague plan to get money and we will see where that leads. Hopefully we will make ends meet and do some career building, because I'm not ready to leave England for good just yet.
On that super rambly note I shall leave this blog alone, before this post turns even more monstrous. I think 2 in the morning may be a little late for me to blog :P
Some pictures:
Silje is dancing in Shades! Yay!
Drawing at the pub. :)
And a bonus, since this was such a long post:
Me as Avril Lavigne or something? :P It's what we did in scouts in Norway. :D
