Study abroad

Ok, so there are a few things you need to know about this place and how it might make you feel:

- you will have the feeling that everyone knows more than you do

- you will think that you're the only one that doesn't understand what the hell the professor is talking about

- you will believe that you're the only one not working 10 hours every day, including weekends

- you're not from a public school? Here on a scholarship? Ha-ha. Well. God loves you too

- you will feel alone, stupid, not fit for this place - but remember, everyone feels like this, even PhD students do!

- overwhelmed? You'll get into it, it just takes a while!

- strange traditions? Don't even bother. There are too many, you'll never learn them all in three years

Any questions? No? All right then. Welcome to Cambridge, everyone!

Happy New Year

Big in Japan

noen får sagt det

Etter noen år med en slik utvikling er demokratiet "the only game in town"

Cleaning out my closet (again)

Ryddet i gamle pappesker fulle av ting i dag. (Viktig: Ikke for å finne tilbake min barndoms uskyld, men fordi mamma ønsket det.)

Der fant jeg mange skolebøker. Den ene var fra andre klasse, og det sto skrevet:

"jeg ønsker meg at ale barn får en mamma og papa og nok mat og spise jeg ønsker også at det skal bli fred i verden." Under denne teksten hadde jeg tegnet at barn som lå i en seng full av blod (????)

Jeg fant også min egen CD-mix fra barneskolen; "Fridas CD mix". På denne var Nellys Its getting hot in here, Nellys Ride with me, Beyonces Work it out, Eves Let me blow ya mind og No Doubts Hey baby! Jeg er glad Aasta oppdaget Nirvana i ung alder!

Når skal du ringe brannbilen?
