Sorry!

January 23rd, 2008 · No Comments

I have a few blog assignments to bust out right now, so bear with me through the next few posts! Soon I will be back to writing more regularly about a little more interesting stuff than things like Rolex Submariner watches and stuff. For example, today I woke up to a nice (but very thin) [...]

So does anyone know or have you ever heard of a tonneau cover? I know I have not. I guess it is the kind of thing that covers the bed of a truck? I guess. Anyways, I am going to be learning a lot of new fun terms because our language school is now doing [...]

I Am Still Happy

January 18th, 2008 · No Comments

I know that I expected more snow when I moved to Norway (kinda like what my best friend Jessica is experiencing in Utah). But I have to say that the rain is still my favorite weather. I just get a little wetter in it since I don’t have a car and walk everywhere. But I [...]

January 18th, 2008 · No Comments

We just barley made it through the Christmas holidays, and now here comes Valentines day just a few weeks away. My family always celebrates by getting little treats and gifts for the holiday.

January 18th, 2008 · No Comments

I know my friend B. from Eurotrippen has stated that “Elf” is the worst elf in a Christmas movie ever. But I’m sorry…I am cracking up right now watching this movies as he walks down the streets of New York and sees a sign on the door of a cafe that says, “Worlds best [...]

I know that some of you know that since I have been here in Norway, I have been helping out Marius with the school (he owns a language school). One really cool thing that I was able to do (with the help of a really good friend) is print up some amazing promotional postcards to [...]

Chicken Noodle Soup

January 16th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Today there was a fight about chicken noodle soup. I really want chicken noodle soup, and thought that the best way to make it here in Norway is to get chicken breasts, bullions, noodles and cook the chicken, cut it up and put it in a pot of water with the bullion’s and noodles and [...]

Did You Hear It?

January 16th, 2008 · No Comments

When I come across companies that are very sure of themselves and that are extremely confident in themselves, it tends to make me have a little more confidence in them too.
They say, “A breakthrough technology has spawned an Internet marketing revolution…As you read this sentence two more people have joined the movement…” Hows that for [...]

Sephora

January 15th, 2008 · 2 Comments

I am frustrated! I am trying to order something off of Sephora.com from a debit card that is a US card, with my parents address that is a US address. Can they tell I’m trying to order the stuff from Norway? Is that why my order wont go through? What I am trying to order, [...]

Hello

January 15th, 2008 · No Comments

First thing I wanted to say today is, sorry. I haven’t been blogging the past few days out of spite towards Google. A few months ago Google gave me a page rank of 1 and I was so excited. Now it is back to zero. It just made me very mad to think Google thinks [...]
