The good, the bad, and the ugly

The good, the bad, and the ugly

Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeese, click…

i found these cheeses at the shop. Some of them I very well remember from my time in . The good the bad and the really really gross.
The first one up, is the “Jarlsberg” this is actually a really good cheese, so when I found this I just had to buy a block. This is almost gone now, yum yum yum.
Second up is “Brunost” Myseost, Norwegian cheese and so on. This is either a cheese you really really hate or love. And I don’t care for it myself. It’s pretty much made from the leftovers of normal cheese.
As you might have guessed now (or not) these cheeses are from Norway, and I got acquainted with them my time there. They are made by the company called Tine, and are the biggest producer of dairy products there. Here in or we have Arla.
The 3′rd cheese…… Well… Did not have Ny picture for this, but it’s all kind of blue cheese…. Hate that shit!

Now what’s this here?

Now what’s this here?

I bought my first SLR camera from my photo teacher back in 2001. It was a Good old and I loved it like crazy. I still do even. It’s always been there, hanging about 40 cm. from my head sitting at my . I got a “upgrade” when I got the 200V a fully automatic monster back in 2002…. Still analogue. In 2006 I got my very first digital SLR. The D20, and upgraded again in 2009 with 5D mark II.

Well, in the moment my good old friend who I look at everyday, is assisting my character in the “Calendar Girls”. Sitting there fumbling a bit around with the camera checking the inner workings, I found this sticker where the film is supposed to be. The sticker says “Foto Østerport, Silkeborg tlf (06) 82 11 12.
This made me think briefly about the my camera had before it got to know me. Who was the first owner, who loved it first, and why did it get sold in the first place “or stolen?” And when? I meen the phone number type is not even being used in anymore, and I don’t know if the where is got sold even is there any more. Well….. Just got me thinking a bit.

This Halloween

This Halloween

is in the works we speak. This American tradition is getting a good hold in . Children all around the country are running around Trick’n'treating. I’m starting to love this tradition, or at least parts of it. I’ve been out at a friends place the ladt couple of years carving pumpkins, or as she calls it “ Slaughter” it’s usually really cozy, and this year was no different. A lot of pumpkins list their ’s but got reincarnated to something cool like a Football helmet, Mr. Spock, Pumpkin Jack or even a ghost tree. Attached are a couple of pictures of the pumpkins and a close up of mine. I really carve like shit, but think the end result came out okay.

Facetime

Just tried out the feature on the . I’ve always been a big fan of the call thing, that the Service provider introduced back in the start 2003 when they came to with the 3G network. Just loved how you could call people with the camera phone and be sitting there looking at each other, and really don’t know what to say. As you can see on the picture, when me and my friend call my , thats pretty much what happened. So what can you use facetime for?…. advanced phone sex i suppose….. but not with your , that’s just wrong……

Lets all remember the day, the wind blew coldest.

Lets all remember the day, the wind blew coldest.

Dear Christina.

One year has gone by sense you left this world at the terrible military on 13 October 2009. Today, the and soldiers are gathering in Rena for a memorial service in your honour. Sadly I can not be there for you, or for your friends and when the return to .

You see Christina…  A lot has happened in the last year, and the year has gone past so fast. Only thing that has not changed are the amount of thoughts and people thinking of you. Not many people has tried loosing someone that young for reasons unknown. Even though you and I was not the closest I still feel like I know exactly who you where. Might be the effect you had on Maria or just any other person that you ever encountered. One thing I can truly say, is that not one day goes past, where we are not reminded of you or thinking of you.

Many have felt your presence, and we are all aware that you are with us. My biggest regret this past year is that i have yet to visit you resting place. I have not yet been by you sense we said goodbye. I missed the chance before moving back to . But then again i also know that you are with me here in DK as well as with Maria in Oslo. So you are really not that far away.

But Christina. I just wanted to let you know we miss you all. Yes I know I did not know you the best, but by some reason I miss and think about you just the same.

love

The hours before the storm

The hours before the storm

It’s Wednesday and I’m having a brief moment to collect my thoughts and prepare mentally for the next many days I have ahead of me. Tonight we have the premiere of The House of Yes.  I need to prepare a lot for this performance, for i have a lot in my mind at the moment. Lucky i have the day of from work today, so I’ve been able to sleep a bit longer and just relax at home.

First i need to prepare for the shows that’s coming up. I will be going straight from work and straight to the theater for the show. So i will have no time in between to do shopping, cooking or just relaxing. I I’ve spend this day to by small things like, fruit, pasta and rice etc, so i have something to eat when i get home late in the evenings. It can be hard to go without after a day from 08:30 till 22-23:00 in the evening. Long days, but worth it all.

As a part of my “warm up” just before the show, one of the methods I use is therapy. To but it short, even if i had had a shitty day, feeling sad, a lot of my mind etc. I put on my headphones and I literally blast the crap away. I run the on full power and totally disregarding that it might actually hurt my hearing. I do this for at least 5 minutes or sometimes if I need to do a physical warm up, then I’ll let it run for about 15 to 20 minutes. The is often very hard and powerful with a lot of energy (i sometimes uses my brothers from the metal band The Interbeing) The music allows me to relax and clear my head, forget about everything and everyone. Forget about the thoughts running in my head, the people i miss, the people i hate and even let’s me forget about myself. It’s just me and the music. I don’t listen to the lyrics but more the power of the music. I’m recharging my batteries so to speak. Used this method sense 2005 and it works for me.

Well i guess this I why i also write this blog, so I don’t need a shrink… I have a lot of things I need to get blasted out of my head, if I’m needed to be someone else on stage. Gf and I ended the relationship two weeks ago, and I’ve been shattered into pieces. I’m trying to piece back together my mind, and am yet to be successful. I can’t deny that I don’t miss her and think about her, but I’m also aware that it might be for the best for both of us. She started at the in , and got to like it so much, that the choice of moving back to and live here fell apart… I understand that she don’t wanna change school. I understand that it’s to hard that I’m not around when needed. I understand that she might not even want to come to DK when school is finished. I understand that it is for the the best, when we’re so far apart, and the future is a mist. But I’m yet to understand that’s it over after almost 4 years with two years living together. Can’t say i don’t miss her or the two guinea pigs.  It ain’t easy, but i suppose it’s not supposed to be.

Hello, tap-tap, is this thing on?

Hello, tap-tap, is this thing on?

It’s September, and it’s been a long time sense I’ve written anything. It’s time to start up again and starting out with a short update of what has happened the last couple of months.

During the summer i came to the decision to move back to The Motherland. I have had no job after i stopped at Elkjøp in February, and it just got to me. The reasons for moving back has been stacking up during the last year, and i decided that this was the best thing for me to do. My Norwegian way of life lasted for one year. Many might say that one year is not enough time to start up from fresh in a new place, and i agree with them. One of my former colleagues from Finland had to use 4 years to get attuned to her new life in Norway. As said the reason are there, where the main one is my theatrical i do in . Not gonna get in details at this point.

My life in Norway has been a huge roller-coaster of emotions, thoughts, events and life changing things. I have met a lot of new people and lost some of them again. I’ve made new friends that  i ain’t gonna let go so easily. And i have had a wonderful life with Gf and her . has been my brightest point in Norway, when things seemed pointless and hopeless. You could say that with the events that took place like loosing our loved friend Christina Rødstøl to the terrible in October 2009, not getting my contract on the job renewed, being unemployed, figuring out more meaning than 42, getting King as the newest family member, loosing and everything else, might just have brought us closer together. All in all, it really sucks, that at this moment, she has not been able to come back with me to Denmark. All good things are worth waiting and working for. (more to come on this subject, just not right now) So status is now; me back in the apartment from where we moved in August last year.

After the decision was made to pull the anchor and return home, i applied for a job, went to the interview the week after. 4 hours after the interview i had the job. So what went wrong in Norway?, where i tried so very hard for 7 months? (yet another blog post to come) I got hired for working in Kamerahuset.dk Selling and helping people with their questions and purchases of digital cameras. Not my only function here, and i’m rapidly growing in the field of responsibilities. I was hired for start August 2, and have now been there for 1½ months. Once again I’ve met new people and have some awesome colleagues. Looking forward for the next long period of time, as i can hear my knowledge and mood grow for the better…. Just wish Gf was here to share the joy with me. (not that she is that far away, long live Skype!)

The same week i arrived at Copenhagen i also got hijacked for two plays with my lovely theater group The CTC. We are doing a play called “The House of Yes” and straight after that, we are doing the Christmas play/musical “A Christmas Carol” looking very much forward to do these two play, for i have had no acting involved in my life for the entire time in Norway.

When i arrived in Copenhagen i pretty much just had my suitcase with cloth and my laptop. And finally just last i visited Gf and Gf-dad who was having his birthsday, in a van to pick up the rest of our stuff and my electronic equipment. I have been living on the couch of my loving family for the first month and just got my own place back this September. It’s all good.

Well this was as said just a quick update that i have started to write again, just as i used to. A lot of exiting things has been popping up that i wanted to write about; , games, gadgets and of cause photography, so hopefully i will be writing on a daily basis again.

Love ya all -  out.

Eurovision 2010 final

Eurovision 2010 final

The day for to held the Eurovision song contest 2010 arrived, and Rybak, last years winner can now pass on his 1′st place.  And for who? Let me tell you (if you don’t already know) Germany! Well congratulations Germany, you had the lowest odds on my betting site because the bookies thought you would win, and win you did.

Remember my top 3 list from last post? 1; Belgium, 2: Germany 3: Turkey

If not Belgium had been pushed out the couple of minutes, i whould have had a perfect top 3 list. Not in the right order, but all of them in the top 3, so I’m actually rather proud of guessing so correctly, when everything is always unpredictable in Eurovision.

There where not that many suprises in the Final because 20 of the 25 countries already revealed their shows in the Semi Finals. Only suprise was this Johnny Jump Charetor who decided to make an offical appreance under Spains song that came number 2 in the order. (made Spain so sad, that they got to perform yet again at the end after who played last) They did not score so many points, but i don’t think it was Johnny Jumps fault…

My evening was okay fun, Gf and me had 4 friends over for beers and show, she cheering for Greece, agreeing with another friend, that if Greece won, they would go and see the Eurovision there next year. Well Greece did not win either and i doubt they wanna go to Berlin next year. We will just have to wait and see :-D All out an nice evening with friends, cheesy and . Uhh uuhhhh, before i forget, Denmark got a 4′th place!? Whats up with that!?

Eurovision 2010 semifinal 2

Eurovision 2010 semifinal 2

Yesterday i watched the Semifinals on instead of being present myself in Telenor Arena. Simply because i did not have a free ticket :-D Well, Gf was watching the Masterchef program on tv, so i had to watch the first 3 songs streamed from the NRK website, the rest i could watch on the TV. I did kind a bet on not making it through to the final, but was proven wrong. however did not make it through the semifinals! This is a big blow for for this is the first time ever that they have not participated in the finals. Well….. their song was really not that good, i thought it was a bit boring and the female singer had a pushed vibrator voice, that was a little bit wanne’be to country western singing. I am surprised that the danish entry got chosen for it sounds remarkable much as the Police/Sting number “missing you”

Well the Eurovision 2010 semifinals 2 did as the 1 first one did, also come with a lot of cheese and covers. Like Holland/Netherlands that has a Hollandic Polka with two “figurines” standing there and moving in the background. And the wind-machine was also used all the way through the rest of the acts as well. Well just a nice and cheesy semi final as expected.

Right now I’m trying to figure out what songs are gonna get the top 3 at the Finals and the list looks like this for now.

Picture of the Danish entry from Eurovision.tv

1. Belgium – With the John Mayer guy Tom Dice, They have a very international sing’n'song hit right there, that i believe we will hear a lot more of, even though if it does not win.

2. Germany – Germany is one of the countries that are automatically in the finals (due to the cash they per to the Eurovision events) And the Lilly Allan wanna’be has a catchy tune that appeals to a lot of people. Just don’t watch the Music for you might find it annoying very very fast.

3. Turkey – Manga (i think it’s Manga) is the name of the group that is the entry from Turkey. They are well known in their land and the entry is also a quite alright rock-song with live instruments. We can’t get another “Lordi” act thats surprises with a rock song, but then again, they are not trying to, so they might have a real possibility, so that’s is why they might get to the top 3.

This is my bet for Eurovision 2010, so lets just see this Saturday how right or wrong i am. I might but some money on this bet as well.
