I am alive! o0

Morning~

Yes, I am actually alive, or at least almost. I had a big cold attack as well as an asthma attack so I've been quite knocked out... The only thing I've been doing the past days are sleep, eat and drink LOADS of tea. Total focus on getting well enough for the premiere. And it went much better than I'd hoped for! I think I got out on the right moments and didn't mess that much up. ^^

Yesterday was our last performance and we did very well, only made some small mistakes that was not very noticeable. I have some photos from behind the scenes and I will share some of them with you all! It feels so good to be finished now, but also kinda sad. Like Silje I'm wondering what I'll spend my time doing now...
I guess I'll get more time to read up on my Japanese and prepare for our Japan trip.

And here is me on the phone trying to get my camera back...-.-

As well as our last performance, yesterday was also Anja's 18th birthday! Spent the night celebrating this awesome girl and it was lots of fun. For the first time we went to a night club in the town, and they had really yummy cocktails.

Happy birthday sweetheart! <3

Hope you liked this
Bye Bye~

The big day!

Good morning everyone!

Today is the big day! Our premiere starts at 7 pm tonight... We're heading over there around two to make everything ready. I'm not freaking out, but I can start to feel a little anxiety. What if I forget what to say? What if someone else does? Will we get a big audience?
Now I'll focus on giving myself some pampering before the craziness begin.

 Gulli will bring her camera, so if we get the time we'll shoot some pictures of our styling. The play happens in the 1920's, so we tried our best to match the styling back then. I think especially the hair and make-up was fascinating, maybe even a little bit creepy. I ended up looking like a old-fashioned porcelain doll... Luckily my costume is bright colored, so I won't scare anyone!

By the way, I just found out that in June the blog will have it's half year anniversary! I'm thinking of celebrating it in some way. Do you guys have any ideas? It would be much appreciated!
Can't believe time's moving so fast...
Anyway, I gotta jump in the shower now.

We'll be back soon with more ~

My dual personality

Hii everyone!

Good news: we're not dead! Just half dead. Both Gulli and I are down with a cold, and it's just two days until our theater premiere! Such a bad timing...
I stayed home from school today to nurse myself a little, and I figured it would be a good time to blog. It feels like I haven't blogged for ages now!
As Gulli told you we've had Russians over for a visit, it was so much fun! It really drained my energy though.
I had three living in my house, and only one of them spoke (a little) English! It was a bit exhausting to try to explain and make yourself understood on every single thing.
Of course, having foreigners on a visit is interesting too. Like that time they all stopped to take pictures of the scenery I walk past everyday. Russians are also so polite, and the boys are much better gentlemen than Norwegian ones. (Sorry, you guys.)
I was so surprised when one of them opened the car door for me! He had only known me for half a day.

Anyway, I'm really starting to feel my energy drain now. Yesterday my mother freaked out and claimed she couldn't remember the last time I seemed this tired. Apparently she has a sixth sense when it comes to my energy level. I know for sure things will be crazy the next days, but after Friday we'll get a chance to relax. This may sound weird, but I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to it or not.
Everytime we finish a play, I get this empty feeling inside. After all, we've worked for this since last autumn, and now it's suddenly all over.

In other words, I need to find new things to focus on! Working out comes high up on the priority list, as well as the blog of course. I've decided to use the upcoming time well, instead of sipping around because the theater season is over. Maybe I should practice cooking as well?
I've also thought about joining a local kick boxing/fighting sport club. I need a way to release all my frustration. I'm a good girl most of the time you see, so I tend to lock negative feelings away. This has started to transform me into some type of dual personality. (To those of you who are familiar with the term: I'm a 100 % yandere.)
I have these moments when I feel really psychotic, and almost opposite of my normal self. An evil, bitter, violent Silje, and I'm not kidding.
I've prepared a list with series I only watch in psycho-mode, and I have a playlist on my iPod designed to fit my evil thoughts. It has started to get pretty freaky by now, so I think it's about time I try to handle it.

I want this teddy bear so bad! It feels like we understand each other ^^ 

Ah well, I gotta run for theater practice now.

Talk to you later sweethearts ~

Theater punks ;>

Hi loved ones!

Feels like it's been ages since last time I blogged. On the bright side, I'm very motivated!
I've been re-sizing and editing more pictures for the little "photoshoot" we had last weekend. The sun has finally made its arrival in the cold north (yay, sun!), so we had the perfect nautral lightning. Our theater locale also turns out to be a great photo set. It's over 100 years old, so it has such a nice, authentic feel to it.
Did you know that our theater is hunted too? It's true! We have both heard and experienced so many weird, unexplained things. I'll tell you more about that later .

Here's the pictures:

These pictures got rather unclear, sorry ~

Dancing skeleton print ^^

For this look I tried to keep the make up a little doll-like, to make a contrast. On the lower picture I'm wearing my costume (supposed to be 1920's). Maybe we should post pictures of them too?

I'm so glad the theater locale worked this good. I'm already having ideas for a bunch of other themed photo sets! That's how it works here you see; I'm getting all the crazy ideas, and Gulli ends up fixing everything... Sorry dear! :( 

Goodbye from us! ~

PS. I would like to give a big, whole-hearted thanks to our great "personal photographer" Simon! Audun helped out too ^^

A look into our theater life; fooling around with my camera~

Hello Hello Hello~

Hope you all are having a lovely Monday morning. The sun has disappeared behind the clouds for most of the day, and I already miss my bed... Luckily it's warm outside so I could ditch my big jacket today.

Like I said earlier Silje slept over at my place on Saturday, and it was a lot of fun. We didn't get to make any videos because we spent most of the time drooling over handsome k-pop boys and watching Sailor Moon. We didn't get to do much in the morning either, because of theater practice. Instead we managed to snap some photos before we started, and some of them became quite good.

Wiii~ 

I'm starting to feel the stress come over me since it's not that much time left until premiere, as well as our exams.. >o<
I also need to get my cosplay for Desucon this year, and prepare for our trip to Japan. I think I'm gonna cosplay Miku from the song magnet, and maybe someone from Panty and Stocking? Really need to get my ass moving and order soon!

Got my last package with Russe stuff as well a couple of days ago, and now I'm so looking forward May! Got a hoodie which you can see on the top picture, and a light blue fluffy fleece jacket. I love them! They are so warm and comfy, perfect for May.

I have Norway on my bum~ ^^

This is the only picture I have right now of the fleece. I can't express how much I like it. Sooooo fluffy~ ^w^
Oh and do you know what I did today??


I took my first bath outside in the sea! :D

Freezing cold ><
Now I'm off to sleep
Bye Bye~

The Star Trek girl and the cockroach!

Hi sweethearts!

Today's been a quite regular day. At school I was trying my best to focus on math, and afterwards I went home, cooked myself noodles and walked the dog in a hurry before I went to theater practice.
It's been rather intense there, lately. Someone realized it's just a month until premiere, and as every single year, everything goes all-out crazy the last weeks.
Gulli and I are trying hard to get our characters right. Her main problem is to act in love, and mine is that I'm not craving enough attention. (I don't know if anyone has said that to me before o.o)

Our theater instructor, as you might picture him, is a very talented and eccentric man, and as we're getting closer to premiere his opinions really comes forth.

"Gulli! What are you? An actress in Star Trek? Cause' that's how you act! You teleport from one spot to another. When the maid says you'll come in from the front door, you can't come in from the side door! You've got brain cells, right? Use them!!"

"Silje, you need MORE ENERGY! You're opening the whole play. If you're gonna crawl in on the stage like a cockroach, the audience will find a trip to the grocery store to be more interesting! I don't care if you run and fall or rip your clothes, just get their attention! They don't want to look at a grey mouse, they want drama!" 

So, that's basically what's filling our days at the time. I'm wearing my costume half of the day, so I don't really bother so much about clothing now. That's why I've been often seen wearing a hoodie lately, and that doesn't happen too often.
I try a little though, and I've rediscovered the greatness of accessories! They're easy to put on and off when I have to change styling.
These are my favorite at the moment:

Found these super cute ear pieces at Glitter yesterday ^^

Hair bow from Tiara by Tracy Dizon. I noticed that I should have put it a little bit further down, but oh well.

Bow ring from Glitter

Me today ^.^

I'll try to keep you updated! :D

Sweet dreams <3

Our theater life; Taco and Movie night~

Hi guys

So guess what? I've managed to get sick... This is so typical, I've managed to not get sick for a looong time actually. Now that I've gotten better and has the energy to blog a little, I thought I'd show some of the pictures from our practice and social night with the theater.

Working hard in the kitchen! ~

What we did while the others made food. ^^

My super spicy taco <3

Omnomnomnom :3

After eating taco we watched the movie; Kick Ass. It is a funny movie, and by the end of it you'll be wanting to try doing some high kicks and all. xD

Now I'm going to go back to finish writing some form about our trip to Japan. So hope you enjoyed this post. ^.^
Bye Bye~
