Oh, weird personality test from last year… you’re the only one who gets me!

“It is likely that you prefer working on projects where there are clear instructions and objectives;  you may find it difficult and pointless to work on projects that require too much creative thinking.

This propensity can have advantages and disadvantages.  For instance, when there are clear rules about how to solve a particular problem, your ability to follow instructions makes it easy for you to accomplish your work and excel.  In contrast, you may be easily overwhelmed and frustrated when working on projects that have no clear solution.”

This is so true!

It’s the Norwegian Constitution Day tomorrow. (Technically it’s actually today already, at 01.30 AM).  I`m the only one that I know of in the whole country who’s not going to celebrate even a tiny teensy little bit.  I feel like an old woman, bored with people and angry at life. What an absolute joy. I can be so absolutely unflatteringly unpatriotic around May.

BUT!  Who’s the one wearing a home-made Norwegian knitted sweater every single day (until it gets way too warm to wear) of the year?  ME!  The one with a symbol of our friggin’ flag hanging in my very room, that’s who!  I`ll celebrate our damn Constitution Day however the hell I want to,  thank you very much!

And I’ll celebrate by sleeping in.

Every time I try to be profound, I only get depressed.  Or maybe it’s really the other way around. I have no idea.  Now that I think about it (which I guess really is the point about profound…ness),  I think it’s the other way.

Depression, or rather; sadness and other emotions of a less positive persuasion, is one of the greater sources of inspiration for many people.  Especially for artists and other creative individuals.  It’s not by chance that many talented artists usually create dark and depressive pieces of art.

Blood and gore, pain and taboos, I believe I`ve seen it all. Get original. Get old. Get a new perspective!  Really, in how many ways can you keep expressing pain? Personally, I try my best to hide it away.  Because I have no good reasons for not being constantly happy.

I have everything!    But I also have nothing.

I hope you know that this has nothing to do with you. 

It’s personal.  Myself and I, we’ve got some straightening out to do. 

And I`m gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket, 

but I`ve got to get a move on with my life. 

It’s time to be a big girl now,

and big girls don’t cry.

Getting better over here.  Felt very poorly in school earlier today, but it turned out I was only dehydrated.  After chugging water and tea for a couple of hours, I felt much better again.

I`ve been shopping enough cough drops to last me for several days, and I`m currently planning to bring a huge batch of snacks with me to school tomorrow, to keep the moods up.  We’re working in the big quarry (Black Larvikitt) again, a very sunny place where No Shadows Fall.  I`m being dramatic, but it’s so warm there I perish barely at the thought!  So I`m bringing a great white tarpaulin with me, to create some cooling shades for myself.

And all the snacks, of course.

Sooo…   It’s 10.48 PM over here, and I just began cooking myself some spaghetti with a lovely tomato sauce.  It’ll be my first dinner since last Thursday, and I was hoping I`d be able to stomach it (if you pardon the pun) without trouble.  Then, just as I`m finishing up and enjoying the lovely smells, my stomach goes all  “NU-UH, oh no you don’t!” on me.  So now I`m standing here with a warm batch of lovely dinner, half a stomach desperately begging for food, the other half making me feel sick again.   Oh yay.

Why is my movie-blog getting spammed by people searching for Barbie’s Diamond Castle??  It’s been several months since I posted that one, but during these last five weeks people have been franticly Googling for pictures and quotes and whatnot, ending up at my (previously supposed to be) uninteresting playground!  Why do people suddenly feel the need to find out what Barbie wears in that particular movie, or whatever the heck it is they’re searching for?

They’re not going to find anything on my blog anyways.  It’s a wasted effort.

And speaking of bad fungi, I`ve been sick for the past four days!  (Ugh, that was a gross segue.)  And no, it did not have anything to do with fungi or anything funky like that.  My serious suspicion lies with my second niece and nephew, who(m?) I was watching for an hour this past Wednesday.  They’re known infection carriers.

It was a really bad Saturday, those few hours I was awake.  Full story later.

PS:   STILL SPEAKING OF FUNGI!

I just witnessed two loaves of bread so far gone even Superman couldn’t have saved them. I`ve been cleaning my hands for a minute, sniffing perfume and drinking tea, yet I can’t shake the feeling of being unclean.  It was that gross.
