It’s been raining hard all day. The winds are blowing like a penniless girl in Amsterdam. There’s no doubt about it. Summer’s gone – Fall is here. Or Autumn, if you’re into that kind of shit. Anyways, I don’t know what to think about it. I hate the short days. It’s getting darker and darker every day. I love to hear the rain brutally crash upon the windows when I’m inside. I hate that same rain when I’m forced to go to school. But I love the fact that I can stay in all day and blame it on the weather.

It’s been a couple of weeks since I last posted anything. The reason for my treason is school. I’m back to my IT studies. This time with what I like to call Motivation. I’ve finally settled in now though, so things are going great. I really think there’s a slight chance I’ll actually become something this time around. That’s kinda cool.

I’d like to thank everyone who gave me their valuable feedback and experience when I wanted help deciding on a DSLR, but as things unfold it seems I neither have the time nor the money to make such an investment now. The time is obviously because of school – I want to do well – the money is also, well kind of, because of school. I bought a Macbook Pro. And there’s no doubt about it; It was expensive. But so far I’m very pleased, and hopefully it’ll help me get trough all of my assignments when they start to pile up.

So there you have it, a little update about what’s going on. Stay tuned the next couple of days for pictures of me transforming from a 40 year old dirty hobo to a twelve year old innocent altar boy. In the meantine, if you’re feeling creative, I urge you to drop by my girlfriend’s oekaki board!

Oh, and I apologize for that penniless girl comment. I don’t even know what that was.

What do all conversations have in common? No matter how short. No matter how meaningless. No matter how retarded. Every god damned conversation has at some point been about — yeah, you guessed it — the weather. And I sure as hell don’t want to be any different, so here goes!

The Weather. The. Weather. This is a bloody bad idea. I could write about the weather for ages. I live in friggin’ icetastic Norway, and I hate anything below 15 degrees Celsius. I’m fucked from the get-go. Me and Mr. W go way back, starting on our 22nd year now. That’s quite some time. And the only time I’ve been truly happy with the old bugger is last summer when I went to Greece with my girlfriend. A big, fat, yellow sun prancing around on the horizon. Gracefully embracing your skin with its yellow tentacles of love. Piercing through clouds whiter than the purest cocaine. It makes me all jiggly just thinking of it. Well, cut the crap and fast forward to today. It’s the 16th of March today and that nonsensical excuse of common science that is “Mr Weather” decided to rear its mentally defected head once again. As I was driving home from the store, some two hours ago, it started to snow. Yes. Snow. What the hell? The only time when snow is remotely tolerable is during Christmas. And no, Christmas has yet to be moved to March. Blargh, I want summer, and I want it now. Ironically, I have a great wish for some day to move to Canada. I’m such a dunce.

Enough of that. Easter is up. Easter – that time when some hairy, infant-loving dude named Jesus supposedly got tired of being dead, and well – grew some wings and flew away. Feel free to correct me if I’ve got the facts wrong. However, to the enlightened child that is yours truly, easter means nothing more than time off school and candy. The latter in an abundance. So, mom, if you’re reading this, the following is what Trine got from her mother: Candy1 and Candy2!

Also, as my birthday is now only two days away, Trine handed me some awesome bounty yesterday. A Team Fortress 2 inspired T-shirt. The message is pretty “internal” and I love it. Thanks. <3

I was going to write something about how completely inane Sony Ericsson has been designing their pc software as well, but I’ve written way too much already. Hopefully you’re all doing well, no matter how excruciating the weather around you may be. Bye. : )
