Busy and stuff

Oh yeah, it's that time of the year again but I'm not the mood for it - not at all actually. I had a now-we-make-lots-of-Christmas-food with my friends but after six hours of Christmas music we're almost dying. So I haven't really heard anything since, and that was, eh, the day before the 1st of December. Luckily  I've been able to buy all the gifts for my friends in good time - I even got one gift from the USA and another one from the UK. I seriously hope they're going to like them - otherwise I might keep them myself! (Okay maybe not).

Yeah this is not an interesting blog this week I've just been really busy with my SRP (that project-thingy Sidsel talked about) and I'm only halfway through it! Yes, we can all hear "Livin' on a Prayer" playing in the background. So I have to finish that before I'm able to enjoy any kind of Christmas. Oh and... I might be a slightly bit in love... Oh well, who knows! That's all for now, Sidsel and Camilla are coming over so I have to clean the kitchen before we can get any writing done.

Bye! 

The Queen Of Goodbyes

"And I was your silver lining
As the story goes
I was your silver lining
But now I'm gold"
That's how Rilo Kiley worded it in the song "Silver Lining", and it hits home for me, because though I've stated previously in another blog that I'm terrible at goodbyes, I'm also amazing at them.
That is, once I've decided it's really goodbye, when a person has hurt me one time too many, or I see that all we really do is fight about everything, I am out of there as fast as I can.
I've simply learned that saying goodbye is better than staying in an unhealthy friendship or relationship. I've been told that I'm cold-hearted before, and I get why it can be seen that way, but it's not how I see it myself (who would ever like to consider themselves as cold-hearted?) I'm really good at pushing people away, but at the same time I treasure the people that I keep in my life all that much more. Because I push away the people I consider bad for me, I only keep the people I think are good for me and those are the people I really value.
Anyone who knows me (and I think Cecilie can nod knowingly to this) will have known about my fights with people, they can be really rather bad and go on for a long time - you really don't want to get in a fight with me!
We all have our faults, and one of mine is my logical and slightly cold nature that makes me throw people out of my life because I'm not sentimental enough to keep someone who hurts me in my life.

Interview with Markus (Yes, another interview!)

Yes, I have done this before and I now I've done it again - I've interviewed a friend of mine and I didn't even have to force him to it. Enjoy!

Markus - and NO there doesn't exist a
(good) pic of both of us together.

 Are you ready?

I am!

Okay, can you start with telling us a bit about yourself?

I suppose I can. My name is Markus, I'm 18 years old. I live near Horsens in 2 different places because my parents are divorced. In my spare time I enjoy reading, playing games on my computer and watching movies and TV series. Vil du have mere/andet? (Translation: Do you want more/anything else?)

Speak English please otherwise people won't understand it!

Of course. I added that, because it wasn't intended to be printed, but rather for you to indicate whether I was doing it right.

Yes, but I'm a terrible interviewer so everything is going on the blog!

Woo!

But I'll take the next question. What's your passion in life?

My passion in life.  That's a tough question, because either I have many or I have none. I don't think there is any one thing that can be described as "My passion". I'm generally a relaxed guy who takes life one day at a time and try to enjoy it. Most of my spare time does go into my gaming habit though.

So your future dreams have something to do with games/gaming?

Well no, not really. Gaming is not my life. Gaming is something I do in my spare time, that I'd like to continue to do in my spare time. But I don't really have a "big dream" about it.

But do you have a big dream then?

I guess that would instead have something to do with physics. I plan to go to University and study physics. I'd really like a PhD.

Excuse me princess but I have to go watch julekalender (=Danish TV-show-thingy) with my family, I'll be back in half an hour!

Right-o, I'll be right here when you're back.

*30 minutes later*

Sorry about that, I'm back.

Welcome back, no need to be sorry.

Did you have anything else to add to that question?

Well, if I have a dream, it is to have a PhD, probably in physics, but I think that's it. I generally just want to enjoy life.

Lovely! Sounds like a plan! Let me see I think we got time to one more question. Could you tell the readers about how and when you first met me?

Well, I met Cecilie through Sidsel. We go to the same school, but not in the same class, whereas I'm in the same class as Sidsel. Since Sidsel and Cecilie were really good friends already, I got to know Cecilie by becoming friends with Sidsel

So you had no choice but spending time with me because of Sidsel? Hint: Now is the time to say something amusing to end the interview.

I have no idea if I had a choice, I just went with the flow and look where I ended up!

Aaah I see! Any last amazing comment?

Bowties are cool?

Fezes are cool!

We're all cool!

The End 

Old friends

I recently started talking to a group of my old internet-friends, we haven't talked for around 2 and a half years and talking to them all again seemed just as natural as back then, and I guess that's how it is with some people, they might not be your best friends but you have a good connection and you can talk about anything. And even if you spend a long time apart you can get right back to talking and having fun. On the other hand you can have friends you see and talk to every day and yet never have that emotional connection.
I know it sounds really cheesy, I personally don't think "soulmates" is a thing, but I believe there's people with personalities we match with.
But you can also grow from each other, it can happen in friendships as well as relationships, if your personalities grow to be so different they no longer fit together, you simply grow apart.

I know this is a short one, but I'm completely ruined after a night out yesterday.

Yearbook-thingy

Oh yes, we already have to write the pages to our yearbook even though we don't graduate till next year. Of course I'm going to edit it (someone has to take some responsibility) so I've already read the rough draft to my page. Some people might say that I shouldn't read it before I get it in the book form, but seriously I don't really care and I want to make sure that my friends only write 'nice' things about me. But because I'm such a nice person I decided to share this draft with you guys. There'll be no explanation because it probably won't exits anyway! Here goes:

Nickname: Sille and Michael

Characteristics: She is very quiet, calm, smart and sweet. And then she is pretty hot.

Motto: "Piv" and "Easily amused,  easily confused."

Will be remembered for: Her perverted mind (which we can thank Mie for) and for how generous she is. She will be remembered for her sweet hamster-sounds. At last she will be remembered for not washing her salad.

Biggest blunder: To become friends with Camilla and Mie - they have filed her brain with perverted thoughts and evil plans.

3 things she would bring to a deserted island: Books, her salad (WHICH ISN'T WASHED) and Hugh Jackman's naked chest.

10 years from now: Cecilie has become the new J. K. Rowling and writes long fantasy-books. She has bought the entire coast road in Aarhus, where her nearest friends and family have moved in. She is married to Hugh Jackman's naked chest. They have three kids and the hamster Hemming. If she does not break through as the new Rowling, then she'll 'just' write erotic books like "Once you go Mie, you never go back!" She has also gotten a part of Mie's company "Build-a-dil'o" which is the world's erotic answer to "Build-a-bear."

The advice from the class: You can do it! You are a hot lady, and don't let anyone tell you different. Believe in yourself and jump into life with both legs, no matter if it's the private life or your profession.

I hope you enjoyed this, my translation is probably not that good, but hopefully it will do. Bye!

Love is...

...A Journey
“They say it is better to travel than to arrive. It's not been my experience, at least. The journey of love has been rather a lacerating, if well-worth-it, journey." (D.H. Lawrence, Fantasia of the Unconscious, 1922)

It is with travelling as it is with love - there are so many destinations but there’s also a journey to get you there.

For some the journey is more important than the destination  - some people value the chasing over the settling down, they want the thrill of the airplane lifting off the ground, and what’s at the other end might then turn out to be as boring to them as where they came from.

For others the journey gets in the way of the destination, some people are so afraid of flying they’ll never get the sensation of landing in a different exciting country. If they’ve had a bumpy flight before they might get scared by the thought of getting on an airplane again, and who knows what they’re missing out on.

Yeah, some may only be interested in the travelling, some may be so scared of travelling they’ll never get to the destination - and then again some may be so focused on the destination that the journey fades in the background.

For me personally, the destination makes the hours in trains, planes and busses fly by - I’ve run through airports because I know that what, or who is waiting for me, is worth it.

I know this one is a short one, but I wrote this in English class (our most recent subject is "Love", and we had to write something like this to get us started on the subject) and I actually really liked what I ended up writing, I know it's a bit cheesy, but aren't we all?

... and therefore you should watch it!

Once again I had been staring at my computer screens for half an hour before I decided what to write about. Yeah, I don't get that many great ideas these days. Either way I thought to myself: "Now Sille, remember, you have to watch the next episode of The Legend of Korra today." and then it me - I'll write about the show! Well actually no, I won't. I'll write why should watch the first series Avatar: The Last Airbender since I like it more than Legend of Korra (that show hasn't caught my attention yet but I'm still hoping). So here's a few reasons why you should watch Avatar (and why I love the show, eh)!

Let's begin with the plot: In this world the four elements fire, water, earth and air live peacefully together. Some people can control the elements and they're called benders. But the peace only lasted until the day the fire nation attacked the air nation and hell broke loose. The only person who could stop this madness was the Avatar, the only master of all four elements. But he disappeared the day he was needed most. A hundred yes later Katara and Sokka, sister and brother, finds the Avatar Aang inside and ice bloke.

The rumour of the Avatar's return spreads and Aang, who hasn't completed his Avatar training yet and can therefore only bend air, is in great danger when the fire nation's prince Zuko tries to track him down and kill him to win back his honour. See that is the greatest beginning of a show ever. Yes, only the beginning! I could talk forever about the plot because it's amazing and very original. But now to the characters!

First of all I adore the characters in Avatar. I'm sure of that anyone in the entire would be able to find at least one character in the show that they'd fall in love with. For example we've got Sokka, one of the only main characters who can't bend but simply run around with his boomerang and sword while having the surplus to cheer up everyone. Yes, he's one of my favourites, for some reason I always fall for the kinda useless and amusing characters in TV-shows I really can't help it. Oh and don't get me started on Toph, a blind earth-bending girl who can kick your butt in less than a split second.

So did I forget anything? Yes! Watch it! You won't regret it and if you do, well, at least I convinced you to try. Oh and by the way don't watch the movie, it can't be compared to the show. The movie sucks, I'm sorry to say it, but that's the truth. Stick with the TV-show and you'll be juuuust fine.

Sille is out!
