The ideal vacation!

Hello, my rays of sunshine! ^^ (wow, that's creative)

Last night when I couldn't sleep, I found myself to be in the poetic corner. So I wrote a description of myself in my dairy, going like this: "Silje, you are much like a flower. Whenever the sun shines and everything is well, you blossom along with all your colors and all your glow. But as soon as a little shadow comes in front of you, you pull back all your flower petals and become a regular, boring plant. You need to learn to be more sensitive for sunlight, so that you can shine during dark times too! ^^"
When I read it again this morning I didn't understand why I made it so complicated. "Silje, honey, you have serious mood swings. Do something about it." That's how I should have written it.

Anyway, I'm happy now! It's Friday and I can finally stuff in on chocolate and candy like the sinful girl I am.
The weather at home now is seriously crappy; I feel so sorry for all the tourists that have taken their time to visit now. I hope you make it home alive, and that you don't break any bones on the icy roads.
I would also like to apologize on behalf of the Norwegian weather gods. They suck.

As you might understand, I need a vacation. Kind of ironic since I have a vacation right now, but it's not the type of vacation I need.

Key elements for a successful, tropic vacation: 

• Temperatures above 20 degrees Celsius.
• A good place to buy yummy, cheap ice cream.
• A little shop that fulfills all your cravings for sun lotion, soda in foreign tastes, weird candy, aloe vera-gel, and plastic flowers to put in your hair.
• A beach bar or pool bar that makes excellent fruit shakes.
• Cheap massage and manicure/pedicure.
• A little market to fulfill the rest of your needs after you've been to the little shop.
• At least one good restaurant that have something you like.
• At least one, fancy place where you can dress up with all the summer fashion outfits you brought, but can't use on the beach.
• Good summer music.
• Some hot guys.

Key elements for a not-so-successful tropic vacation:

• Sunburn. Serious sunburn.
• All kinds of diseases like infections, wounds and diarrhea.
• Insects. Insects everywhere.
• Evil monkeys.
• Evil animals in general.
• Scary people that speaks way to fast or way to slow.
• Jellyfish. Especially those who hunt many together.
• Others from your home country that acts like morons.
• Men who wants to marry you after knowing you for three seconds.
• Men who doesn't take no for a no.
• Bikinis and swimsuits that doesn't fit you.

 Well, it's going to be a long time before I can experience any of the above again. Not that there's anything wrong with going to Tokyo for the summer, but that's a different type of vacation. In fact, I think I might make a good/bad-list for city vacations too.
As it is now, any place would do good! >.<

How I feel these days (if you haven't watched this video yet: DO IT) :

You gotta love that woman.

Talk to you guys soon, and hopefully the weather is better where you are! :D

Bye bye ~

What I and grumpy cat have in common

Hi cute ones! ^^

Today I felt so incredibly bored. I seriously can't remember last time it was so bad. It wasn't because of school either, I had a lot of fun there. (Friday's at my school are usually quite chill.) It was when I got home my brain suddenly decided to remember all the funny moments that have ever happened or could happen in my life.
I have winter vacation now too, and while everyone were talking about how nice it would be to finally get a vacation, my mind went like "damn, damn, damn." And you know why? I, as the spoiled little brat I am, will for once not travel anywhere. And this vacation came so sudden that I haven't made any other plans either. What's a girl to do? "Relax", said my classmates. "Just enjoy the fact that you are free from school work and schedules next week."

It's Friday night. All that remains of my winter vacation is:

• Saturday
• Sunday
• Monday
• Tuesday
• Wednesday
• Thursday
• Friday
• Saturday
• Sunday

And I'm already bored to death.
This afternoon I couldn't sit still. I walked around the house from the kitchen to the bathroom ten times, tossed myself around on the couch for about 15 minutes, took a very long walk with my dog, and emptied the battery on both my iPod and phone.
And this is what I'm supposed to do a whole week? "Relax and take it easy"?
Good thing Gulli is finally coming home soon, cause' this is an emergency. So many people are going away on fancy vacations, and I wanna go too! >.<
If someone offered me a cheap air line ticket right now, I would take it, no matter what destination.
I'm quite impulsive about travelling, especially long distance.
Gulli, on the other hand, is a smart, young woman who thinks of all type of factors like budget, time, planning, legacy and such.
She was very keen on my idea of going to South Korea for the NU'EST concert which was just held in Seoul, but pulled out as soon as she understood that I was serious... :(
She is also concerned about stuff like where we sleep and such. I would gladly sleep at a park bench if I could attend that concert!

Just to make it clear: I'm a huge fan of vacations, but I think they are much more fun when you're going somewhere or it's nice weather at home. Right now it's cold, dark and icy outside, and people are running from one warm building to another. In other words, it's not the right season to stroll the streets or hang outside, and the conditions are definitely not right for sleeping at park benches.

Random picture of my hair taken after my good friend Tonje had braided it. You see this look all over the web these days, and I think we nailed it pretty good. (Teen swag: How many likes for this hair?? <3 <3 <3 <3 etc.)

Talking about web stuff: I have always disliked the grumpy cat, until today when I realized that we had something in common after all. I'm generally a quite cheerful and positive person, but when I first get grumpy I think we look a lot alike. 

Me when I got home.

Me when I read all the "Yaay, finally vacation! <3" statuses on Facebook. 

The more I look at that cat, the more we look alike. Crazy stuff. The blanket he got on the upper picture looks just like the hood on my jacket and everything.

Well, no one I know have more shifting mood than me, so by tomorrow I'll be a happy, "that's so cutee!!" girl again, just like I was before I got home. The kids in the lowest grades on my school performed a carnival parade today, and I was paying more attention than any of the parents. How can someone possibly think that a little kid in a self made panda mask doesn't look cute? :3

Talk to you later! ^.^
